Reborn in 1980, I became the sweet wife of a tough guy
Chapter 260: A dying man speaks kind words
Ji Cheng has worked in the branch for more than three years. The area he is in charge of has the best public security conditions and the best relationship between the police and the public.
He does more than just maintain public order. Buyers and sellers go to him when they have conflicts, and ordinary people go to him when they have headaches or fevers. Anyway, he is just a brick serving the people, and he will be moved wherever he is needed.
Of course, he also caught thieves, knife-wielding criminals, and roaming criminals.
Three years later, Ji Cheng was promoted to captain of the public security patrol team.
One day in June, Lin Dong called and said that Zhang Yumei, who had been paralyzed for five and a half years, was in a very bad mental state and was afraid that she didn't have much time left.
When this name was mentioned again, Qiao Anan no longer felt much.
[Brother, I'll send her some more money. Just buy her whatever she wants to eat.]
[An An, that's not what I meant. I would buy her whatever she wants to eat, but she can't eat anymore.]
Qiao Anan understood that this meant that Zhang Yumei's condition had become very serious and she didn't have much time left, which was a more euphemistic way of putting it.
Qiao Anan was silent because she didn't know what to say.
She wants to see you
【At this point, is there any need for us to meet?】
[Come on, help me. You haven't been back for five years. Don't you want to see the place where you grew up?]
【…】
Qiao Anan made the final decision and went back to He City, where her brother, the clothing store, her employees, and the people from the military family compound lived.
Ji Cheng had annual leave that he hadn't used yet, so he took it and went with Qiao Anan.
Qiao Anan and Ji Cheng boarded the train back to He City. The scenery outside the window passed by quickly and all kinds of smells filled the carriage.
In summer, people become particularly sensitive.
Qiao Anan leaned on Ji Cheng's shoulder, with complicated emotions flashing in her eyes.
The end of the road is the place that once made her heartbroken, but now it is filled with calmness and indifference.
After seven or eight hours, the train slowly pulled into Heshi Station, and Qiao Anan and Ji Cheng walked out of the platform with their luggage.
Lin Dong had been waiting outside for a long time. He greeted her with a smile, his eyes full of warmth.
"An'an, Ji Cheng, welcome back." Lin Dong's voice was gentle and powerful, like a warm current that made Qiao An'an feel at ease.
Qiao Anan smiled and called out "Brother", while Ji Cheng stretched out his hand and shook hands with Lin Dong.
The three of them walked side by side out of the station. Lin Dong took a tricycle and asked, "Are you going home directly?"
Since her own home was more convenient, Qiao Anan asked the tricycle driver to take them home.
I haven't been back for a few years, but the streets and alleys of He City are still familiar and friendly.
The house in Heshi is now occupied by Aunt Jiang and her husband. Li Yufeng got married and bought a house to live in separately.
Aunt Jiang lived in a few side rooms, and the main house remained unchanged.
Qiao Anan went to the bun shop to get the key, ventilated the room, and dried the bedding.
Ji Cheng boiled some hot water and took out two pounds of buns to fill his stomach first.
"Brother, have you found a sister-in-law for me?"
Lin Dong smiled and said, "It's true that the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is. Just wait, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Brother, have you forgotten how old you are?"
Lin Dong is already 32 years old.
"Don't worry, I will tell you."
Ji Cheng asked about Lin Dong's situation again. He had worked as deputy director for six years and was finally promoted last year. He is now the director.
The three were chatting about family matters when Aunt Jiang hurried in from outside.
"Lin Dong, your nanny called and said your mother is not feeling well."
Lin Dong stood up and walked away. Qiao Anan followed him and asked, "Do you need me to go?"
"Go check out the situation first, and I'll let you know if conditions permit."
If the person is unknown or has passed away, there is no need to meet at all.
Ji Cheng discussed with Qiao Anan and decided to go with Lin Dong. If something bad happened and Lin Dong couldn't make it alone, he could help.
Let me make it clear first that everything Qiao Anan and Ji Cheng did was not for Zhang Yumei and Lin Qijun, but for Lin Dong.
"go quickly."
Zhang Yumei was living in the hospital, and she was accompanied by only a nanny. When she saw Lin Dong coming, she started to cry.
"Auntie is being rescued inside, I don't know what's going on."
Lin Dong frowned, "You were in good condition this morning?"
"I suddenly fainted..."
After three hours of rescue, Zhang Yumei finally regained consciousness. The doctor said the situation was not optimistic and asked her family to be mentally prepared.
Zhang Yumei has become so thin that she is hunched over, and she no longer has the contemptuous look she used to have.
Zhang Yumei stared at Ji Cheng, her cloudy eyes never moving away, and murmured, "You are An An's son-in-law, right?"
Lin Dong answered for him, "Yes, he is Ji Cheng."
"An An is here too?"
Lin Dong nodded. "Yes, you want to see her, don't you? I'll bring her here tomorrow."
"it is good."
Zhang Yumei was not in good condition, so Ji Cheng didn't bother her any more and went back.
In the evening, Aunt Jiang prepared a sumptuous meal to welcome her nephew and his husband. She also called Sun Kaiming and Li Yufeng over and they sat together for dinner.
Li Yufeng also gave birth to a son who is over two years old this year. He is at the age of being curious about exploring the world. He wants to dig three feet into the ground and no one can stop him.
After dinner, Qiao Anan asked about Zhang Yumei's situation, feeling a little sad.
"I can't be cruel. After all, he raised me up. I'm disappointed, but I can't really say how much I hate him... Do you think I'm a little ungrateful? A cheap one?"
Ji Cheng gave Qiao Anan firm support, "Qiao Anan, who has flesh and blood and emotions, is my wife."
Early the next morning, Lin Dong called and asked Ji Cheng and Qiao Anan to go to the hospital.
A few years passed in a flash, and this was the first time Qiao Anan met Zhang Yumei.
Zhang Yumei was half leaning against the head of the bed. She was as thin as a paper man, but her face had an unprecedented calmness.
In the ward, the sunlight shone through the window onto Zhang Yumei's old and thin face, adding a touch of softness to her once sharp facial features.
She looked at Qiao Anan, with complex emotions flashing in her eyes.
"An An, you're here." Zhang Yumei's voice was weak and hoarse, but with a kind of flattery.
Qiao Anan stood by the bed, feeling mixed emotions. She looked at this woman who had been so harsh on her, but now seemed so fragile, and she couldn't help but feel an inexplicable emotion in her heart.
Qiao Anan nodded slightly without saying anything.
Zhang Yumei seemed to see Qiao Anan's hesitation. She took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Anan, I know I was not good to you in the past. I was harsh and even mean to you. I shouldn't have treated you like that. I'm sorry, really sorry."
As she spoke, a tear fell from the corner of her eye. This was a scene that Qiao Anan had never seen before. In her memory, Zhang Yumei was always so strong and so arrogant. She had never seen her so vulnerable.
Maybe this is what it means when a person is about to die, his words are good.
