Chapter 55 Grandma

Lao Gao said: "Speaking of Aunt Bai, it was not easy. Her family was sent down here. During those years, they were criticized and persecuted. Her husband couldn't stand it and fell seriously ill. He didn't survive. Later, her son also passed away.

She is the only one left and her eyesight is not good. I heard that she cried her eyesight blind when her daughter was lost.

She has been living alone these years, and people in the village feel sorry for her. She has only a bowl of rice from one family and a bowl of noodles from another, and it has been difficult for her to get through these years.

When I left that day, I saw that it was already very annoying. "

Du Ruo's heart tightened.

The car drove for more than two hours before arriving outside a small village, where the villagers surrounded the car.

Just as Ling Yun's bodyguards were about to make a move, Lao Gao said hurriedly, "The people in our village have never seen the world. Many of them have never even left the mountains and have never seen a four-wheeled vehicle. They are just curious. Boss, don't be angry. I'll let them move aside."

Ling Yun also discovered that these people were just pointing fingers and there was no malice on their faces.

Lao Gao got out of the car and pushed everyone aside. He led the way and led Du Ruo to the outside of a thatched hut.

Lao Gao shouted loudly: "Aunt Bai, you have guests at home."

He shouted several times, and the room became completely silent.

Du Ruo's heart moved. She didn't care about being polite anymore. She ran into the yard quickly and pushed open the door.

There was nothing in the room except a broken wooden bench near the window, on which stood a porcelain bowl half full of water.

There was only a straw mat on the kang, and a white-haired old lady was sitting there. She was sitting there in a daze, with her dry hands hanging under the edge of the kang, and she seemed to have no breath.

Du Ruo walked forward and gently felt the old lady's breath with trembling fingers. There was still a hint of warmth. Her heart trembled and she felt mixed emotions.

The old lady seemed to have just noticed something. She trembled her dark and skinny fingers, grasped Du Ruo's hand, and asked in a trembling voice: "Who are you? Who is here?"

Du Ruo said: "I am Bai Minhua's daughter."

The old lady was stunned. She repeated stupidly: "Minhua? Minhua..."

The old lady, with strength coming from nowhere, rushed straight towards Du Ruo. Perhaps she was already extremely weak, and she fainted from the combination of joy and sorrow.

Du Ruo hurriedly called Ling Yun over and asked him to take the old lady to the car first.

Ling Yun asked: "Who is this? Is this the person you have been looking for?"

Du Ruo said, "No, but she is also a relative of mine. I didn't know where she was before, and it was just a coincidence today. Let's send her to the hospital first."

The car sped along the mountain road, heading straight to the Nanshi First People's Hospital.

When we arrived at the People's Hospital, we went straight to the emergency room. The medical staff looked at the old lady in tattered clothes on the stretcher, then looked up at the two fashionably dressed men and women next to her, wondering what was going on.

Du Ruo said, "I will go and pay the fee right away, you guys hurry up and save the people."

Since someone is paying for the hospitalization, there is naturally no problem.

Ling Yun asked curiously: "Is this the person you have been looking for?"

Du Ruo shook her head. She was looking for her mother. In fact, the woman was not dead at all. She had always wanted to find her and ask her why she left her behind.

Now that she has lived two lives, how can she still be depressed? She didn't even want to look for him, but she ended up meeting her grandmother.

Du Ruo felt sad and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It turned out that her grandmother also had an accident at this time. She must have been so poor in her previous life that she only had money left.

Du Ruo's heart suddenly moved.

She said, "Lingyun, do you still remember the overseas Chinese who saved us, Mr. Ji Bailin?"

Ling Yun was surprised and said, "How can you not remember? When we came back from Myanmar, we were almost killed at the border. If we hadn't met Mr. Ji by chance, would we have been able to return alive?"

Du Ruo said, "I always feel that Mr. Ji looks familiar. Do you feel the same way?"

Ling Yun suddenly remembered something. He said, "After we escaped from danger, I brought gifts to the Ji family to express my gratitude. I accidentally met his mother, Mrs. Ji, who looks a bit like you."

Du Ruo clenched her fingers into fists and asked, "This Mr. Ji's name is Ji Bailin. Is his mother's surname Bai?"

Ling Yun nodded and said, "His surname is Bai. Mr. Ji's mother is his father's step-wife. It is said that the two met in Hong Kong City and later moved to Country A with their family.

Before I came here this time, I heard that the Ji family had returned to Hong Kong City. Although we have not met them in this life, I have paid more attention to the Ji family. Why do you ask this?"

Du Ruo smiled bitterly and shook her head. She had no way to say anything now.

She couldn't say that she suspected that Mr. Ji was her brother and that Mrs. Ji was her biological mother who abandoned her husband and daughter, right?

As the two were talking, a young nurse came out of the emergency room and said to Du Ruo, "The elderly patient inside is in a very serious condition. The doctor has issued a critical illness notice. Are you family members? Please sign it."

Du Ruo nodded and said, "Okay."

More than two hours later, the doctor came out shaking his head and said to Du Ruo, "The old man has been malnourished for a long time. This time his condition has worsened. He did not receive timely treatment. Now there is no way to save him. We can only delay his recovery for a few days."

Du Ruo said: "Please help me get a single room so that the old man can spend this period of time well."

The nurse thought for a moment and said, "There is a suite at the end of the corridor, but it's more expensive."

Du Ruo said, "Don't worry."

She said to Lingyun, "Please look after it for me while I go to the door to buy two sets of clothes."

The old lady's clothes were in tatters, and she still had to buy some daily necessities. She wanted to make the old lady live more comfortably in these last few days.

Ling Yun nodded: "Go quickly, and be careful."

Du Ruo ran to the store at the hospital entrance and bought the old lady several sets of clothes from head to toe, both inside and outside, and some toiletries. The store staff saw that she bought a lot and helped to send them to the hospital ward.

As soon as Du Ruo entered the ward, she saw Ling Yun standing at the window. Seeing her come back, Ling Yun asked, "Why did you take so long?"

Du Ruo wiped the sweat off his head and said, "I'm already very fast. Look how much I bought?"

Hearing her voice, the old lady on the bed stretched out her hands and kept groping around the bed, saying, "Who is it? Who are you? Minhua?"

Tears flashed in the corners of Du Ruo's eyes. This was her grandmother. The old lady had two children in her lifetime, one of whom was her mother, Bai Minhua.

Although that woman had abandoned her, she felt sad when she saw her grandmother like this.
