Chapter 333 The Old Lady is Not Alive
Yu Cuihua immediately looked at Hu Jiaye, "Jiaye, give me a chance and I will change! You also know that I am uneducated and have never been to school. I don't understand any great principles.
Give me a chance, I will learn to read and learn the truth, okay?"
Hu Jiaye looked at Yu Cuihua and said, "Let Tiedan write your 2,000-word self-criticism for you."
Yu Cuihua nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll tell you, Tiedan, help me write it."
Hu Jiaye doesn’t know how long he can manage it.
That's all we can do for now.
This evening.
Yu Cuihua wrote until 1 a.m. and her mind went blank. She really couldn't think of anything.
Tiedan was adamant, "Mom, you can't give up. Think about it again. I counted and there are still 500 words left!"
Yu Cuihua was scared when she saw those words.
She waved her hands, "No, I'm going to sleep. Xu Moli can do whatever she wants tomorrow. I really can't help it. I can't write anymore!"
Tiedan had no intention of letting her sleep, so he took something and said, "Mom, have a drink of water."
Yu Cuihua didn't doubt it and drank the water in her hand.
After drinking it, she shook her head because it was so sour. "Tiedan, what did you give me to drink?"
"Lemonade! It's sour, Mom. Are you awake at all? Is there anything wrong with your brain?"
Tiedan asked with a smile.
Yu Cuihua looked at her eldest son and was speechless.
Xu Weilan didn't pay much attention to the Hu family's affairs.
But Yang Fen and Zhao Chunhua were particularly interested in this, so Xu Weilan knew about these things within two days.
I hope she can be more obedient for a few more days and give my sister-in-law in the compound some peace and quiet.
It's almost the end of the year and it's time for holidays.
Therefore, the military district also began to be busy with the finishing work at the end of the year.
Those whose hometowns are far away will take leave in advance and bring their families back to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year.
Xu Weilan also brought her two children back to the agency compound.
The entire capital city is filled with the atmosphere of the New Year.
People's lives have improved in recent years, and they are willing to buy New Year's goods for the New Year, so the market is really crowded.
The streets and alleys are decorated with lights and colors everywhere.
Still the same old rules.
I spend noon at Xu's house and night at Qin's house.
Then starting from the first day of the new year, people visit each household and relatives to wish them a happy new year.
Peaceful and sweet, this New Year has certainly brought a lot, and the two little golden pigs are full.
An An once thought that he was a rich man. He held the little golden pig in his arms and planned what to buy today and tomorrow. He also wanted to buy a big car and a big house for his grandpa, grandma, and mom to live in. As for his father, he would consider it.
The whole audience laughed.
Qin Yan has always been Yan's father.
So he asked seriously: "An An, don't you want a daddy?"
An An met Qin Yan's eyes, not daring to say no, and changed the subject, "Dad will live with us too."
Qin Yan wanted to laugh.
But he held back.
His wife is too gentle, and everyone in the family pampers them. He is afraid that he will spoil them and turn them into parasites of society. What should he do?
So he decided to be a strict father, educate them well and supervise them.
Let them be responsible, enterprising and good children.
The year passed in the blink of an eye.
Those who should go to work start to work, and those who have no homework start to do their winter vacation homework.
After the Chinese New Year, on the 28th day of the first lunar month, Mrs. Xu went to the hospital again.
This time.
Xu Weilan knew that the old lady might not be able to hold on any longer.
My body had already collapsed.
Being able to delay it for these few years is already a blessing.
Xu Weilan stayed by Grandma Xu's bed, her eyes slightly red, but she didn't let herself cry. She thought it would be painful for her grandma to see her, and she wouldn't be able to leave with peace of mind.
The doctor said that there are only two days left, and everyone who needs to see the doctor should come, so that the old man can pass away with peace of mind.
There were quite a few people, including Aunt Xu's family, Aunt Xu's family, Uncle Xu's family, and Xu Weilan's family. Yi Ci was not there, having gone south with Jia Lian.
Xu Weilan didn't tell him about it for the time being, as she was worried that he couldn't handle the work well, so she hurried back.
Made some arrangements.
Go in batches.
Xu Weilan went in first.
The old lady loved Xu Weilan the most, and her name was the one she called the most.
Xu Weilan brought Qin Yan in safely.
Old Lady Xu didn't even blink, as if she knew it was her who was coming. She grabbed her hand and kept saying, "Girl Lan, I'm... sorry... I made... you suffer.
I regret it... I'm also sorry to your mother. Now I have to go downstairs to see your mother. Well... I... I'll say sorry to your mother."
Xu Weilan's eyes were red, and she held onto Grandma Xu's hand tightly, "Grandma, you haven't let me down, you are very good, grandma, my mother won't blame you either.
Grandma, don't worry, we should let go of those things."
If there was one thing that Mrs. Xu regretted most in her life, it was that she did not manage Xu Tianming well, allowing him to do whatever he wanted, marry Li Aihua, a troublemaker, and bring back his stepdaughter Xu Canlan.
Her granddaughter suffered a lot.
She knew that her granddaughter had really suffered.
She dreamed it all, she saw it all.
Because of this dream in her heart, her health deteriorated day by day, and she realized that she had lived for several years in vain.
She has no face to live.
Her little girl, Lan, often wakes up crying in the middle of the night.
She didn't tell anyone about this dream.
She thought that life was good now, so she wanted everyone to be happy.
But the dream kept lingering in her heart. Day by day, she could no longer distinguish between dreams and reality.
Only when she saw Qin Yan, safe and sound, did she know which was reality and which was a dream.
Xu Weilan touched the skinny hands of old lady Xu and said with sobs, "Grandma, look at me, I am safe and sound. Look at how well Ah Yan treats me.
I really didn’t suffer, and I’m doing very well now.”
Grandma Xu nodded and said, "Grandma knows, Grandma knows."
Old Mrs. Xu held onto Xu Weilan's hand and refused to let go. She also kept on talking to Xu Qingyan, "Qingyan, treat Xiaoya well, work hard, eat well... Zeze is a good boy... Grandpa likes her..."
Gu Ya's tears rolled down like beads from a broken string, and she couldn't help wiping her eyes.
Old Mrs. Xu is closer to her than her own grandmother, how can she not be sad.
Xu Qingyan held Old Lady Xu's hand while gently patting Gu Ya's shoulder to soothe her emotions.
Old Mrs. Xu let go of Xu Qingyan's hand, but did not let go of Xu Weilan's hand.
They all knew what it meant and said nothing. They silently took Ping Ping An out with Qin Yan, and then it was Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu's family.
Xu Qingbai, Zhu Ying, Xiao Mancang. Xu Nian and Yao Zhiyuan were getting married in March, and she thought her grandma would wait until she got married, but... she was leaving now.
Xu Nian burst into tears.
Xu Qian is pregnant now, so she shouldn't be too upset, but how can she control herself when her relatives leave?
Jiang Hao patted her gently and coaxed her.
Old Mrs. Xu glanced at Uncle Xu calmly and said, "Uncle Xu, you...are the most obedient and have the best life. You should also...be like this in the future.
Take good care of Qingbai, Nian girl, Qian girl! My eldest grandson Mancang...should study hard..."
Xiao Mancang has grown up.
He understood what death was.
It will never come back.
There is no Zuzu in this world anymore.
He cried his heart out.
Old Mrs. Xu just coaxed her.
The little brat can't be controlled either.
Of all the children, it is naturally Xiao Mancang who has spent the longest time with Grandma Xu and has the deepest feelings for her.
Xiao Mancang is so sad.
Everybody went out, but he stayed behind shamelessly.
Then there are my eldest aunt and second aunt’s families.
My eldest and second aunts have always been a worry-free family since they were young. They are a happy family with no troubles.
Old Mrs. Xu didn't say anything, but she just couldn't bear to part with her eldest and second daughters.
She had suffered a lot with her since childhood, but fortunately she married a good man who was smart and made her worry-free.
Now seeing them like this, Mrs. Xu felt relieved.
The heartbeat on the instrument began to slow down.
Everyone stood in the ward and watched Mrs. Xu leave with sad faces.
Old Mrs. Xu left in a particularly peaceful and calm manner, with a calm expression on her face, as if she left without any worries.
But she did not let go of Xu Weilan.
Xu Weilan's heart seemed to have suffered a thousand injuries, and she was so heartbroken that she fainted.
This was probably the saddest and most sorrowful moment since her rebirth.
But that's life.
There is separation in life and death.
Repeat the cycle.
Xu Weilan suddenly remembered a story her grandmother told her when she was a child.
In the past, people did not die.
When you are 100 years old, you will shed your skin like a snake, and after that you will be young again, a new person, without any memories of the past, and start all over again. [My grandmother told me this, but she is no longer with us.]
Although this statement was illogical, Xu Weilan remembered it very clearly.
At this time, Xu Weilan only hopes that her grandmother can be as lucky as herself to be reborn, to another parallel time and space, and start her life again.
Let her have no regrets, only success.
As expected, no matter how sober and rational a person is, in the face of family affection, he will become unreasonable and fantasize about all kinds of things that are impossible to happen.
Mrs. Xu's funeral was simple. What Xu Weilan didn't expect was that Yi Ci would come back that day, and as soon as he entered the house, he knelt in front of Mrs. Xu's portrait and cried like a child.
It made the people watching sad again.
Jia Lian also knelt in front of the portrait with Yi Ci.
Xu Weilan went to pull it several times.
Yi Ci didn't even get up.
He felt resentful of himself for not being able to see the old lady off to her final journey, so he wanted to send her off in his own way.
Yi Ci knelt for a whole day and night, except for eating and going to the toilet, when he got up, he knelt at other times.
Xu Weilan saw it all and was moved.
Although my grandmother's funeral was simple, there were quite a lot of people who came.
Also attending the funeral in the compound was Old Lady Zhu, with whom Old Lady Xu used to chat and play with cats.
The old lady also had a happy and smooth life, with many children and grandchildren, and she passed away peacefully.
In fact, several old ladies passed away in the compound this winter.
Downstairs, these old ladies can sit together again and chat, warm themselves by the fire, and play with cats, which is also quite nice.
After Xu Weilan finished taking care of Mrs. Xu's funeral, she went to school and began preparing her graduation thesis. She was a better student than others, so she had already completed all the subjects and only had the last step left.
March 6th.
Yangchun March.
Xu Nian and Yao Zhiyuan's wedding.
Xu Weilan still customized a wedding dress for Xu Nian, which was a bit similar to Xu Qian's, but not that similar.
After Mrs. Xu passed away, Xu Nian became weak and transferred to logistics.
There is no wind or sun.
Xu Nian's hair has grown longer and his hair has become grayer.
