I can't fall asleep until very late at night, and I wake up very early in the morning.
As for the middle of the night, any sound or noise can wake him up.
At this moment, among these relatives outside, there are quite a few with loud voices.
Especially upon hearing the news that Grandpa Zhu had come back to life after his death, everyone was completely unable to contain their excitement.
Not to mention old folks like Grandpa Zhu who are light sleepers, even the younger generation who went to catch up on sleep just before dawn were woken up.
But Grandpa Zhu was still asleep with his eyes closed, completely unaware of waking up.
Seeing that his eyes were still closed, Zhu Xiangyu hesitated for a moment, and then carefully reached out to check the old man's breath.
He feared that their suspicions from last night had come true.
My father suddenly died, then suddenly came back to life, and then died again.
With all this noise, he still hasn't opened his eyes or woken up. Could he have died again?
However, when Zhu Xiangyu touched the old man's nose, he found that the old man was still breathing faintly under his nose.
The person is still alive.
He immediately felt a sense of relief.
As he was about to withdraw his hand, he accidentally touched Old Master Zhu's lips.
Upon touching him, I suddenly felt as if my fingers were touching ice; Old Master Zhu's lips were cold and devoid of warmth.
If Zhu Xiangyu hadn't just checked Old Master Zhu's breathing, he would have suspected that the old man had passed away again.
Otherwise, why would his lips be so cold?
The other relatives were astonished to hear that the old man was still breathing.
A group of people chattered and discussed among themselves around the old man's bedside, but they couldn't wake him up.
In the end, they saw all the wonders on their own before leaving.
During this time, if Zhu Xiangyu hadn't checked the old man's breathing from time to time to make sure he was still alive, no one would have believed it.
All day long, Zhu Xiangyu and his colleagues were dealing with various relatives and friends, as well as handling funeral arrangements.
Grandpa Zhu remained lying in bed, neither waking up nor eating, drinking, or relieving himself.
The only way to confirm that he was still alive was for Zhu Xiangyu and the others to manually check his breathing.
As night fell, they finally managed to smooth things over regarding the funeral arrangements, convincing everyone that Old Master Zhu hadn't actually died and that they had misjudged the situation.
As evening fell, Zhu Xiangyu and the others became worried when they saw that the old man was still unconscious.
The main problem is that there's nothing we can do about him sleeping like this.
Not eating is one thing, but don't they also need to go to the toilet to relieve themselves?
Zhu Xiangyu and the others could only go to the old man's room, intending to try to wake him up and ask about his current physical condition.
To their surprise, when they returned to Grandpa Zhu's bedside, this time they only had to call out once before Grandpa Zhu slowly opened his eyes.
Upon seeing Zhu Xiangyu and the others, the old man did not speak, but stared at them with wide eyes, motionless.
This strange behavior once again left Zhu Xiangyu and his companions feeling bewildered and fearful.
Out of concern, Zhu Xiangyu still asked the old man if he felt unwell anywhere, whether he needed to get up and eat something, or go to the toilet.
Seeing that they had come to ask this question, the old man slowly began to speak.
This time, his voice was even sharper than last night, and his tone and manner of speaking were also much stranger.
"Need not."
That voice was almost unrecognizable as Old Master Zhu's.
It sounded more like a beast.
Grandpa Zhu probably realized that his voice sounded strange, so he stopped talking and slowly raised his hand to signal Zhu Xiangyu to help him up.
Zhu Xiangyu could only suppress the immense sense of unease in his heart and help the old man up.
When he helped the old man up, an even more shocking scene unfolded.
After the old man was helped up, he stretched his hands straight down and bent his waist down, as if he was about to support himself with his hands on the ground.
However, his body was very stiff, so he couldn't bend over any further after just a little bit.
And he probably realized that his behavior was strange, so he slowly straightened up.
Zhu Xiangyu and the others were completely stunned by Old Master Zhu's actions.
He asked hesitantly, "Dad, did you lose your balance just now?"
As for other reasons, he really didn't dare to delve into them.
We can only assume that the father had lost his balance and that's why his upper body bent down.
As for why the hands also extend straight down when bending over...
He simply couldn't understand it.
But when Grandpa Zhu heard this, he seemed not to hear it at all. He helped Zhu Xiangyu stand up straight and then gestured for him to go to the kitchen.
Go to the kitchen?
Zhu Xiangyu was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized that the old man was hungry, so he took the initiative to speak.
"Dad, I'll have them get you something to eat. What would you like?"
He noticed that the old man had difficulty moving around, and if he could go to the toilet for him, he would have preferred to let him stay in bed indefinitely.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Zhu spoke up again in a shrill voice.
"I'll go myself!"
Seeing him like this, Zhu Xiangyu and the others dared not stop him and could only carefully help the old man Zhu toward the kitchen.
They assumed that Grandpa Zhu's insistence on going to the kitchen was because he was too hungry and wanted to eat so much that he couldn't wait even a second longer.
Because the funeral was held all day yesterday, many guests came to pay their respects, and the Zhu family prepared a lot of dishes.
Even if we don't hold the event today, we still haven't finished eating the things we bought yesterday.
There are still a lot of cooked food in the kitchen.
But when Zhu Xiangyu and his group helped Grandpa Zhu to the kitchen, they found that the old man was just staring at the food and didn't eat anything.
But his burning gaze, the way he inhaled the aroma of the food, and even the way he swallowed, all clearly showed that he really wanted to eat it.
As for why I was so tempted but still didn't eat it.
Could it be that you don't have enough strength in your hands to hold chopsticks?
Zhu Xiangyu found his "resurrected" father increasingly strange.
But out of concern, he still took the initiative to ask.
"Dad, what would you like to eat? I'll feed you with chopsticks."
Grandpa Zhu looked at the food, but stiffly shook his head, meaning he wouldn't eat it.
Not eating?
Didn't he insist on coming to the kitchen? And after he came, he was drooling over all the food. It doesn't seem like he doesn't want to eat.
But since Grandpa Zhu shook his head, they couldn't force the food into his mouth.
The last group of people could only stand in the kitchen, looking at Grandpa Zhu with blank expressions.
After standing there for a while, Grandpa Zhu asked Zhu Xiangyu to escort him back to his bedroom.
no?
After arriving in the kitchen, I looked at the food for a while and then went back to my room.
