Chapter 443 Dream, the return of the old man



The last time Zhang Zhou went home, he knew that goodbye would be a farewell forever.

He worked day and night, numbing his nerves and fighting with his lover at the forefront. Every nerve in his brain was running at high speed, but his body was numb, so numb that he could not feel tired and was operating mechanically.

Occasionally, just for a minute or two, I think of home.

Grandpa, big brother, little sister, quadruplets...

After a moment, it started spinning like a top again.

On the way back this time, he was mentally prepared and knew that this was the worst outcome, but when he was told the real situation, he still couldn't bear it and fainted.

After waking up, he looked at the world in confusion. He reached for the glasses on the bedside table and put them on, then he could see the people beside the bed clearly.

Very dense, with pairs of concerned eyes.

"Zhang Zhou, the old man probably doesn't want you to be like this." Jian Xinyu said.

Jian San and his wife also came. After hearing the young lady's harsh words of comfort, they broke out in a cold sweat on her behalf.

If the daughter of the family had not given birth to a child, would the aunt be able to tolerate the daughter of the family's stubborn temper?

You don't look like a girl at all!

Zhang Zhou stood up indifferently and said to Qiao Yu, "Little sister, take me to pay respect to the grandfather."

Qiao Yu looked at his haggard appearance and said, "No rush."

"Um?"

"I see that you, my second sister-in-law, and my second son are all deficient in Qi and blood. You should stay at home to replenish your Qi and blood and conserve your energy. When my eldest brother arrives, we will go to pay our respects together."

As long as the second brother goes with the eldest brother, he will feel much more relieved.

"But I can't wait..."

"Just listen to me, that's right."

In this family, Qiao Yu has always been the one who has the final say.

Zhang Zhan, who was on the road, had his eyelids twitching violently.

Left eye twitching means wealth, right eye twitching means disaster?

I'm afraid he'll have trouble returning home this time.

Zhang Zhan, carrying lots and lots of bags, stood there indifferently, greeting Qiao Yu's rare smiling face.

There must be something fishy going on when things are out of the ordinary.

He took a half step back.

Qiao Yu had seen through his character long ago, so he took the things in his hands and pushed him home.

"Brother! You are finally back! Come in! See who is back!"

who?

Oh, it’s my second brother.

Before Zhang Zhan could shed tears with his brothers, he was dragged outside by his second brother.

No, what are you two siblings trying to do? One is pushing him into the house, and the other is pulling him out!

"Don't rest yet, let's go!"

He had been traveling a long way, and was exhausted. He didn't even have time to rest before he was dragged and beaten by his younger sister and second brother...

"Wait, go? Where are we going?"

Only when the car reached the ancestral cemetery did Zhang Zhan finally understand.

The atmosphere in the car was depressing throughout the journey. My second brother and his sister, including my younger sister in the passenger seat, did not speak a word.

Only occasionally, my sister glanced at him through the rearview mirror.

It looked creepy to him.

"Don't tell me that you guys have been in Beijing for a long time but have not come to pay respect to Grandpa because of me."

Zhang Zhou glanced at him and quickened his pace. Jian Xinyu followed her lover's steps without looking away.

Only Qiao Yu responded to him, but he only patted him on the shoulder as a tacit agreement.

Zhang Zhan: ...

Did he make a mistake that will bring him eternal regret, or what?

Is he so unforgivable?

At first Zhang Zhou didn't understand why the younger sister had to wait until the older brother was present.

Qiao Yu also hid the matter about his elder brother from him.

Until today, I light some candles and burn incense.

Zhang Zhou watched helplessly as his elder brother lit a candle and the wick went out, burned incense and the fragrance went out, and burned paper money and money flew all over the sky.

Once is accidental, twice is coincidence, three times is...

Zhang Zhou is a materialist, and at this moment he couldn't help but mutter: "Grandpa appeared?"

Jian Xinyu pinched him and he came to his senses.

Zhang Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Brother, how about you kowtow to Grandpa?"

The last time he kowtowed, he was interrupted by his younger sister, and he failed to kowtow every year after that. Now, after hearing his younger sister's look, Zhang Zhan quickly knelt down, but before he could bend down, he was struck by an invisible pain, and then a strong wind blew, and his forehead hit the tombstone.

"Huh." Qiao Yu held Zhang Zhan's forehead with his hand and sighed, "It seems that Grandpa still hasn't forgiven you, an unfilial grandson."

Zhang Zhan: ...

Then should I still knock? !

Qiao Yu: "Okay, get up."

Zhang Zhou looked at the brother and sister suspiciously, then knelt down neatly as they made way for him.

There was no violent storm, it was calm.

Zhang Zhou kowtowed several times.

He felt that this was his belated filial piety, but Qiao Yu sat by the grave, talking to him in a chatty manner, saying, "Look, Grandpa, some people lose their integrity in old age, while others fight for you and the country. In comparison, isn't this a lot more comforting?"

Second brother will stay for a long time this time, but your departure still has a big impact on him. If you want him to feel at ease, please pray for him in his dreams at night."

Others: …

Not necessarily.

Qiao Yu also asked the gravekeeper to bring chili sauce and placed it in front of the grave.

"I didn't let you eat chili peppers before because it was for your own good. This time, the military kid made a lot of them, all of which are your favorites! They can be kept for a long time, so you can enjoy them slowly!

The military kid is also busy, when he is free, I will ask him to make something for you. That kid has published a book, he is promising.

Oh, by the way, you can also ask grandma what flavor she likes. Just tell my second brother through Meng. "

Zhang Zhou: I’ve let my dreams come true every year, but I’ve never succeeded.

Qiao Yu chatted with Tombstone for more than an hour, and then it was Jian Xinyu's turn.

Jian Xinyu really didn't know what to say.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!

After visiting the old man, Qiao Yu returned home alone.

The ancestral cemetery was purchased by Qiao Yu, and was usually maintained with her money, so Zhang Fu and Fu Yujing were not buried here.

The couple's grave was still in the original place, and the eldest brother, second brother and his wife went there alone to kneel down and pay their respects.

After returning home, Zhang Zhou felt heavy-headed, had no appetite, and was listless.

Qiao Yu took his pulse and said, "You are just too tired. Just take a good rest."

Zhang Zhou nodded, then moved upstairs with a heavy head and feet.

He felt that he was not falling on the bed, but that all the scenery in front of him was spinning and sticking to his body.

It's not important.

The important thing is that he really fell asleep and met his grandfather in his dream.

"Zhou Zhou."

Who? Who is calling him?

"Zhou Zhou, wake up quickly."

He slowly opened his eyes and saw... huh? Grandpa when he was young?

It somewhat subverts the image of grandpa in our minds.

He rubbed his eyes.

"Stop rubbing! I don't have much time, let's finish this quickly."

"Uh-huh."

Grandpa, are you okay over there?

"Tell Yu to make the sauce spicier next time!"

Um?

"Your grandma likes sweet food! The kind that's sweet but not greasy!"

Zhang Zhou: ...

After the old man finished speaking, his face relaxed a lot, and he said, "Okay, it's your turn!"

What should he say?

He wanted to be sentimental.

Looking at Grandpa's condition, even if he tries hard to be sentimental and exaggerate the atmosphere, it is estimated that he will not be able to reach that point and will have to wake up from the dream.

Is this a dream?

Isn't this true?

"I'm asking you a question!"

Zhang Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa, have you met grandma?"

"Your grandma is a high-ranking official down there! I'm following your grandma too! Have fun! Oh, by the way, don't let your eldest brother kowtow to you in the future, it's really humiliating."

"What did you do, brother..."

"Go back and ask Yu."

"oh."

He always felt that he was the one suffering from Alzheimer's.

What did he want to say?

Forgot.

"Anything else?"

"I forgot."

"Oh, I remember now." The old man snapped his fingers, "Don't take your leaving too seriously. Learn from your younger sister and go on with your life as usual! My leaving is inevitable, and it will be the same whether you are here or not..."

The one behind? The one behind, he couldn't hear clearly.

I only heard a female voice shouting, "It's time, Zhang Hu!"

Then he woke up in a cold sweat.
