Chapter 116 Chapter 116 Part 2
"At first he just had a cough. I took him to the hospital a few times and he was prescribed medicine. He seemed to be getting better after taking it. But a few years ago he went out and got caught in the wind, and when he came back he coughed even more. When he was sent to the hospital, they said he had severe pneumonia and other symptoms, so he was hospitalized at the time."
Yin Xiuwen sighed, "I thought he would be fine after a few days, but he suddenly got worse two days ago. He became confused and unconscious. I immediately sent you a telegram."
Fu Mingze nodded: "Let's talk while we walk."
Yin Xiuwen wiped her eyes again, followed her son's footsteps, and asked, "When will Moer and the others come over? Liangliang, you should call her Liangliang, right? How is Liangliang?"
Fu Mingze: "Let's wait until after the Chinese New Year. The child is still young, and it's not convenient to bring him here temporarily. Besides, we have to move here, and we won't be able to organize everything in a short time."
"That's right. The child is so young, and it's time to be careful at all times." After hesitating for a moment, Yin Xiuwen said, "If something happens to your grandfather... he won't be able to see Mo'er and the child anymore."
Fu Mingze shook his head: "No."
Fu Zhiyuan was the only one in the ward. The old lady had been there for the previous two days, but she was old after all, and her face looked very haggard after two days of accompanying him. Fu Zhiyuan quickly asked his youngest son to take her back home.
When Fu Zhiyuan saw his eldest son whom he hadn't seen for many years, his eyes immediately turned red. After a while, he patted his son's shoulder and sighed, "It's good that you're back."
He couldn't help looking outside. Yin Xiuwen knew what he was looking at and said, "Don't look. He came back alone in a hurry. It's not good for him to bring his family with him. He will be back after the New Year anyway."
Fu Zhiyuan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, don't worry, let your wife take her time."
Fu Mingze walked to the bedside. The old man, who used to be energetic, was now lying there with his eyes closed, looking extremely thin.
He put down what he was holding, came up to the old man, and said, "Grandpa, Mingze is back."
The old man's eyelids seemed to slide a little, but he did not wake up. Fu Zhiyuan felt sad, and the tears he had been holding back finally fell.
Although the old man didn't say it, he actually loved his eldest grandson Fu Mingze the most. That was why he sent Fu Mingze away as soon as he heard the rumor.
This time when he returned to the capital, he was looking forward to the return of his eldest grandson and his family every day. However, he fell down before Fu Mingze came back.
Fu Zhiyuan wiped his eyes and said, "You just came back, go home and take a rest, and come back tomorrow. It's a good opportunity for you to go back and accompany your grandma."
Fu Mingze leaned over to the old man's ear and said a few more words, then picked up his bag and went home. He had been on the train for two days and was indeed smelly and dirty, so it was not appropriate for him to stay in the hospital.
After his parents were rehabilitated, the old house was taken back. His father said in a letter that the house was originally occupied by a leader of the Revolutionary Committee. On the surface, it was used as a warehouse, but in fact, a woman was kept in it. Because of this, the house was not damaged much, unlike some families in the alleys, where more than a dozen households lived in one yard and the houses were divided in a mess. After the house was taken back, it took a lot of effort to repair it.
When Fu Mingze knocked on the gate, he saw a tall and thin young man. He looked unfamiliar, but his features were somewhat familiar.
The boy's eyes lit up when he saw him, and he shouted happily: "Brother, brother, you are back?!"
The old lady who was basking in the sun in the yard stood up immediately and came out on her feet: "Who's back? Is it Mingze?"
At the same time, the Yangliu Brigade, thousands of miles away.
Shen Shaoyuan was holding his little kid in the yard basking in the sun, while Shen Moer was packing her luggage. She looked at the packed boxes and bags beside her and said worriedly, "There are too many things. We definitely can't go out with so much luggage."
She thought about it and said, "No, let's just send the luggage over first. Let's do it today. It should be here by the New Year."
Shen Shaoyuan thought it was unnecessary to go through so much trouble: "Put the things in the treasure house and try. If they can be put in, we can take them out when we get to the capital. It will cost money to mail them. What if we arrive but the luggage has not arrived yet?"
Shen Moer had not thought of this method before because they had only taken things out of the treasury over the years and had never put anything into the treasury.
After all, given how poor they were in this world, there really wasn't anything worth putting into the treasury.
Shen Moer entered the house carrying a bag.
In fact, the door of the treasure house can be opened anywhere. Shen Moer and Shen Shaoyuan have tried this. No matter where they are, as long as they think about it, the door of the treasure house will appear. Shen Moer once tried it in Guangzhou and was able to open the door of the treasure house. I think it will be the same in the capital.
Of course, they could also go in the yard, but just to prevent being seen, Shen Moer and Shen Shaoyuan would usually find a closed and empty space before entering the treasure house. In recent years, because Fu Mingze was still by her side, Shen Moer rarely went into the treasure house, and she would ask Shen Shaoyuan to pretend to take something out from his room.
If the things outside can be put into the treasury, then they can indeed put the luggage into the treasury first, and then find an opportunity to take it out when they arrive in the capital.
A few minutes later, Shen Moer came out of the house with empty hands. She raised her eyebrows and smiled, “Sure.”
Soon, all the sorted luggage was thrown into the treasure house by Shen Moer.
Shen Shaoyuan also carried Xiao Liangliang into the treasury. The things in the treasury were a bit scattered. Shen Shaoyuan carefully avoided the boxes and sundries on the ground, and walked to a shelf with Xiao Liangliang in his arms. He opened the small wooden box on the shelf with one hand, picked out a dazzling necklace from it, and held it in front of the little kid.
"Is it pretty? This is your mother's favorite necklace when she was little. You see, there is a gemstone on it that is a slightly different color. That's because your mother picked it out and lost it. I searched for a long time but couldn't find one with the same color, so I simply got a better one from your uncle."
The little kid stared at the brightly colored gemstone jewelry in front of him. Perhaps he really thought it was beautiful. His little mouth moved rapidly and his little hands kept reaching out, waving in the air for a while, and then he put his hands back into his mouth.
Shen Shaoyuan took her hand out, looked down at the child's clothes and swaddling clothes, and said, "This dress doesn't match the jewelry. When you are older, I will take it out for you to play with."
As he said this, he put the necklace back into the wooden box.
The little kid's eyes rolled around like black grapes, and his little head moved slightly left and right, as if he wanted to know where the beautiful toy had gone.
Shen Shaoyuan held her and walked forward two steps, then opened a wooden box and said, "These head ornaments and jewelry will be used as your dowry when you get married in the future."
The little kid looked at more shiny and colorful things, and suddenly jumped excitedly in Shen Shaoyuan's arms, stretching his little hands forward and making meaningless sounds from his mouth, obviously wanting Shen Shaoyuan to hold him in the middle of those jewels.
Shen Shaoyuan scratched the little guy's nose and said with a smile: "Little money-grubber."
Over there, Shen Moer finally put away and sorted all the luggage.
The luggage problem has been solved, which means the biggest trouble of the journey has been solved. Shen Moli now feels relaxed.
Time flies. On this year's New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers in Yangliu Brigade seemed to be much more numerous and louder than in previous years. It was the first time that Shen Moli had spent a year without Fu Mingze since she knew him.
School starts late in the capital, and they had originally planned to set off after the Lantern Festival. However, on the third day of the New Year, Liu Yinshuang couldn't stand it anymore and ran to Yangliu Brigade to ask if they could go to the capital earlier. She was really annoyed by those unscrupulous and shameless relatives who stayed at home.
Those people thought that once she got into university, she would not dare to pick up a knife or a stick easily, and she would be less cautious. So she immediately spoke and acted excessively. Some of them introduced her to potential partners openly or secretly, while others simply tried every means to set a trap for her.
But Liu Yinshuang really didn't dare to do anything to them.
She worked so hard to get into university, so she naturally didn't want to give up because of these bad people.
So now she really wants to go to the capital as soon as possible.
This is probably what it means when someone gives you a pillow because you are sleepy.
In fact, Shen Moer had been planning to go to the capital as early as possible since the beginning of the year. Firstly, she didn't know what the condition of Grandpa Fu Mingze was like, and as his granddaughter-in-law, she should go to see the old man as soon as possible. Secondly, she discussed with her father and decided to go to the capital as soon as possible to see if there were any houses for sale. If she could find a suitable one, she would buy one and save the trouble of renting one.
When Fu Mingze left, he left his home address and said that his house had enough space for him to live in. However, based on his family's situation, Shen Moer guessed that the so-called "room for him to live in" might also mean that he lived in a very crowded place.
They might as well buy one themselves.
Their savings over the past few years, plus the money Shen Shaoyuan earned from selling his job, should be enough to buy a small house. Of course, it would be best if they could buy a bigger one. If the savings are not enough, they have also sold some gold in the past few years. With this money, it should be enough. The only thing is how to explain it to Fu Mingze when the time comes.
According to Liu Yinshuang, houses will only become more and more expensive in the future, so the sooner you buy one, the better.
Because she wanted to take the opportunity to buy a house, Shen Moer did not send a telegram to Fu Mingze. She planned to check the situation after arriving in the capital and then contact him.
If you don’t come across a suitable house, then don’t mention it to him. If you do come across a suitable one, then think about how to tell him then!
