Chapter 187 The End of Life in the Ninth World

Chapter 187
Su Mingyu hesitated for a while, took the five yuan, and bowed deeply, "Thank you, Grandma Yu."

"Don't be so polite. This is your labor income. This is five days' wages. Don't forget to come here tomorrow. Well, go home quickly."

Later, Su Mingyu came to read newspapers to Man Yin every day. When she was free, Man Yin would teach her various foreign languages ​​and Hokkien, Shanghai dialect, and Changsha dialect.Su Mingyu is a very smart little girl, and she is willing to work hard.In other words, the children of the Su family are very smart, at least in terms of study.

So when the eldest son of the Su family was going to study abroad, the parents of the Su family decided to sell the room where Su Mingyu lived in order to raise tuition for the eldest son to study abroad.

In recent years, Su Mingyu has never had any conflicts because of asking for money from her parents.Still not this time, she just lay on Man Yin's lap and wept silently, asking: "Grandma Yu, am I redundant? Why don't parents love me?"

Man Yin did not answer this question, but instead asked her: "Do you remember your uncle?"

Although Su Mingyu's uncle doesn't live here, he is quite famous in the alley. He is in his dozen years old and doesn't work seriously.A dual-income family in the Su family is living in such a difficult situation, and this uncle cannot be separated from it.It is said that the reason why mother Su, who was outstanding in everything, married Su's father was also to obtain a city hukou for this younger brother of her natal family and to eat public food.

Mingyu nodded.

Man Yin said: "I don't know what your parents think, but I know that what you have suffered today means that you don't need to follow your mother's old path in the future."

Su Mingyu was silent for a long time.

Later, Man Yin led her to Su's house slowly, and told Su's mother that she wanted Su Mingyu to live with her.First, she lived alone and was very lonely, and there was a spare room at home, so she wanted the little girl she liked to spend more time with her.Secondly, Mingyu is about to sprint for the college entrance examination and needs to have an independent space.She usually has to read newspapers to herself, so it would be more convenient to move there.

Although Su's mother said that she was a little harsh on Mingyu, she was still her own child.She also knew that Su Mingyu's tutoring fees and materials were all earned by reading newspapers to Man Yin these years.In the beginning, she brought Mingyu over to refund the money, but Man Yin insisted that she and Mingyu were in an employment relationship, so she had to give the money.In addition, Su's mother also sympathized with Man Yin's helplessness, so she didn't care about this matter anymore.Now that Man Yin came to her door with sincere words, she agreed.

In this way, Mingyu moved to the second floor of Man Yin's house.And Man Yin had moved to the first floor two years ago because of her inconvenient legs and feet.

Just like that, more than a year later, Su Mingyu was about to take the college entrance examination.

"Grandma Yu, shall I take the exam at your alma mater? Listening to what you said about the past, I always want to see the places you have been to."

"Silly boy, didn't you always want to go to Tsinghua University? When you can seize the opportunity, don't give up your dream because of anyone or anything. Besides, decades have passed, things have changed, and going there is nothing but nothing." Adding to the sentiment, it’s not what it used to be. You, you still have to choose the one that suits you best, the one you like the most.”

Something happened to the Su family again.

Su's mother, carrying Su Mingyu on her back, approached Su Mingyu's class teacher and asked her for a tuition-free admission to the local normal university.

Su Mingyu didn't go back to Manyin's place after school, but went directly to Su's house. Not long after, the quarrel between Su's mother and Su Mingyu came out.

"Su Mingcheng didn't do well in the exam and could only get into the second class, but you spent money to let him go to a key university! I can get into Tsinghua University, but you don't let me go. They are all your children, why are you doing this to me? ?! If you didn’t want a daughter, why did you give birth to me in the first place!?”

"The family no longer has money to support a college student. Now this school can provide free tuition and miscellaneous fees as well as scholarships. What's wrong? I've already raised you, and I don't owe you anything, and this family doesn't owe you anything! You Do you want to go to Tsinghua University? Well, you will pay for the tuition and living expenses yourself! Otherwise, you can go to the normal school for me obediently!"

Man Yin sat on the rocking chair by the window.Since she moved to the first floor, she changed the small square window next to the door on the first floor into a large floor-to-ceiling window for the convenience of sunbathing and lighting.

Su Mingyu said that the window was empty and lifeless, so she used her "salary money" to buy two pots of roses and placed them one on the left and the other on the right. After growing the flowers for a few years, the small pots were replaced by large pots.Later, Su Mingyu moved here, and found a way to build a flower stand and wrap the flower poles into the shape of an arch.

It's May, and the branches pruned years ago have already covered the shelves, and the flowers have begun to bloom.On weekdays, Su Mingyu took care of these two potted flowers with great care.

The big white cat stepped on the edge of the flower pot and stretched out its paws to reach the clusters of bright flowers.

Su Mingyu did not come back that night.

The next day, Man Yin walked out slowly on crutches.

"Grandma Yu, the weather is so nice today, are you going out too?" The neighbors around were surprised to see this old lady who lived alone going out these years, and greeted her one after another.

"Yes, come out for a walk." Man Yin responded, carrying a small handbag and continuing to walk tremblingly with a cane.The big white cat also slowly followed her feet.

Tired from walking, Man Yin sat down anywhere, stroked the cat for a while, and then continued to set off.

She met Su Mingyu at the door of a flower shop. Su Mingyu saw her from a distance, ran over and hugged Man Yin tightly and cried out with a 'wow'. "Grandma, where have you been? I can't find you everywhere, you scared me to death. Grandma, you scared me to death..."

The flower shop is not far from home, Man Yin patted Su Mingyu's back lightly, and said: "Go home first, we'll talk when we get home, good boy, don't you cry?"

Su Mingyu took Man Yin back home.Man Yin took out 1 yuan from her small handbag, handed it to her and said, "This is the student loan your grandma gave you. You will have to pay it back when you work in the future, you know? Also, the future tuition fees will depend on you." I have a work-study program. More grandmas have no choice.”

In June, Su Mingyu finished the college entrance examination, and came back to discuss with Man Yin which major to enroll in.

In September, Man Yin sat at the door with her cat in her arms, watching Su Mingyu go north to study with her luggage on her back.

During the summer vacation, Su Mingyu had to stay in BJ to work part-time to earn tuition fees, but during the winter vacation, she would always come back to spend the New Year with Man Yin.She rarely went back to Su's house, even if it was only a few dozen steps away.Man Yin wouldn't try to persuade her that mother and daughter didn't have an overnight feud, and they had some knots in their hearts, so they had to figure it out on their own.

In the days when Su Mingyu was away, Su's mother would come back to Man Yin's house every now and then to read newspapers to her instead of Su Mingyu.

She said: "Thanks to you for taking care of Mingyu all these years."

Man Yin said: "It was this child who made me feel less lonely in my old age. I want to thank you for letting her come and stay with me."

"This is your fate, and it is also Mingyu's fortune."

"Parents love their sons, and they have far-reaching plans. Others don't know your thoughts, and they may hate you for the rest of their lives."

Mother Su didn't speak, but before leaving, she looked at the rose by the window and said, "What a beautiful flower, you can't grow such a beautiful flower in a swamp."

This winter, a TV series called "The Legend of Zhen Huan" became popular in the streets and alleys. Even people like Man Yin, who don't watch TV, have heard a lot of storylines intermittently from the discussions in the neighborhood.

Mingyu had already graduated last year, and in her first year at work, she paid off the 'student loan' she borrowed from Man Yin with principal and interest.In order to take care of Man Yin conveniently, she planned to return to Suzhou to work after graduation.But at that time, a big company in Shanghai also offered her an olive branch. "Let's go to Shanghai. When I was young, I always wanted to go to big cities. When my grandma was in her twenties, she was also in Shanghai."

Shanghai is not far from Suzhou, and it is convenient for Mingyu to come back to see Manyin, so she went.

Although Man Yin's eyes are blurred, her hearing has always been good.On an ordinary afternoon, she was rocking a rocking chair and basking in the sun, when she heard a 'click' of the shutter.Man Yin looked out of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

A young man saluted with one hand and held his camera in the other, bowing towards her.Man Yin put on her reading glasses, and the figure in front of her became clearer, clearer and more familiar.

Man Yin waved to the young man.The young man pointed to his nose close to the floor-to-ceiling window, with a puzzled look on his face.Man Yin pointed in the direction of the door.

The young man twisted the doorknob, walked in, and said with a grin: "Grandma, I see that your flowers are blooming well, and you and this big white cat, the composition is so beautiful! Hehe, I couldn't hold back, I Didn't mean to bother you. I'm really sorry."

Man Yin stared at the young man's face for a long time, straightened up from the rocking chair, and asked, "What's your name?"

The young man was taken aback for a moment, and then replied with some embarrassment: "Li Xiao. My name is Li Xiao. Grandma, I really didn't do it on purpose, or should I delete the photo?"

Man Yin smiled with red eyes.Li... By the way, the surname should be Li.Uncle Li said back then that Mingtai was his son.

Man Yin asked, "Is there an elder named Yu in your family?"

Li Xiao asked in shock: "Grandma, do you know how to tell fortunes?! My great-grandmother's surname is Yu."

Man Yin beckoned again, Li Xiao stepped forward and squatted in front of her.

Man Yin took his hand and said, "Then you should call me great aunt and grandmother."

Li Xiao, stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and said in disbelief: "You are Yu Manyin? Great-grandmother's sister?...Aunt...Grandmother, you have been in Suzhou all this time? My great-grandmother and great-uncle found you in Tianjin You have been in Suzhou all your life? No, great-grandfather and great-grandmother lived in Suzhou for more than ten years, why haven't we met?"

"Are they...well?"

Li Xiao was silent for a while, and said: "Uncle Zeng and his wife suffered some hardships and then passed away one after another in eight or eight years. My great-grandfather passed away in [-], and my great-grandmother died the year before last. My name is still Great-grandmother took it. I also have a younger sister named Li Meng."

Man Yin lay down on the rocking chair, took off her glasses, and closed her eyes, a little water dripped into her temples along the wrinkles at the end of her eyes.

She never thought of going to Tianjin to see...

Originally, there was a chance to meet each other.

Li Xiao called the elders at home and told them that he had found his great-aunt and grandmother in Suzhou.

A few days later, a large crowd of people filled the small hall of Man Yin's house.

Some of these people look like big brothers, some have traces of Jin Yun, and some Man Yin can't tell who they look like at all.Li Xiao is most like Mingtai, and his sister Li Meng is most like Manli.

The oldest is almost 70 years old, and is the eldest son of Da Ge and Jin Yun. When Man Yin went to Tianjin, he was still in Jin Yun's stomach.None of the others have been touched.

But because of the nagging and searching of Big Brother and Manli for decades.These children are no strangers to the name and identity of Man Yin.They have known from their parents and grandparents since they were young that there was such a great-aunt or great-aunt whose whereabouts were unknown.

They proposed to take Man Yin back to Tianjin for retirement.But Man Yin still chose to stay.

When these relatives showed up, someone notified Su Mingyu, and she rushed back.When everyone proposed to take Man Yin away, she squatted beside Man Yin and held her hand, but when Man Yin said she would stay, she was deeply relieved.

All the relatives left, Su Mingyu took a few days off to stay with Manyin.Li Xiao also stayed behind.

He said he wanted to hear more stories about Man Yin.

A few days later, Su Mingyu returned to work in Shanghai, and Li Xiao also went to Shanghai with him, saying that he would go to Shanghai to collect folk songs and see the places where his ancestors lived.

November.

This was an unusual day. Man Yin took food from the brother who delivered milk and bread, shared a few mouthfuls of bread with the big white cat, and drank the milk again.

The roses were already in bloom, so Man Yin took some flower scissors and trimmed the branches, then lay in the rocking chair and waited for the sun to shine on her.

The big white cat is very dissatisfied with the cut bare pole. After yelling at Man Yin a few times with a 'meow meow', she curled up and lay down in the flower pot.

At eleven o'clock, the sun shines on a person and a cat.The little aunt who cooked for Man Yin came with vegetables.

She turned the doorknob and came in directly as usual, and said to Man Yin: "Grandma Yu, my mother's house brought a piece of good ham over here, and today I will make egg tofu ham for you, okay? I I also bought a plum tong fish, should I eat it steamed?"

The little aunt started to process the ingredients neatly while talking.When the soup was ready and the fish was steamed, she made rice and put it on the table, and walked to Man Yin's side.

"Grandma Yu, it's time to eat, let's dry it after eating?"

The white cat in the flowerpot meowed at the little aunt.

That afternoon, Su Mingyu and Li Xiao returned from Shanghai.

Man Yin walked away very peacefully, she even had a premonition, wrote a will, and left the house to Su Mingyu.The money in her account was entrusted to Su Mingyu to withdraw and donate to the orphanage.

The next day, Brother Yu and Manli's descendants all rushed to Suzhou.After discussing with Su Mingyu, everyone brought Man Yin's ashes back to Tianjin and buried them in the same cemetery with her brothers and sisters.

After everyone left, Su Mingyu sat in the empty house all afternoon.Mother Su took a look and left.

Su Mingyu called someone to help carry the two large flowerpots into the car, hugged the cat, and locked the door.

 The next world is the last world of this article.It is expected to be completed this month.It will be busy at work next time.

  This article is written purely out of personal interest.

  At the beginning, I wrote a lot in one go, and then it was the Chinese New Year and the epidemic, and I was thinking about making steamed buns with cold skin cakes all day long, without even taking out my computer.Every day is sent out on a regular basis.At that time, I didn't know how to read comments or anything.So I don’t know that everyone urged me to add updates, sorry.

  Thanks to the little angels who never gave up on me, because of you, I overcame the lazy cancer.Hahaha, love you guys.Goodbye!
