Chapter 17 Grandma's Expectation

Lu Chenxing's grandmother is over 70 years old. Chenxing's father is the youngest son in the family, and the eldest son is also Chenxing's uncle. When he jumped in the queue and went to other places, he took root in other places. He married a wife and gave birth to a child. He rarely came back. I saw him the year my grandfather died.

The eldest daughter and the second daughter had complaints because their grandma had given the house to Chen Xing's father. Coupled with the matter of Chen Xing's father and mother, they cut off contact with the family and almost never contacted each other again.

The rest are the youngest son and grandson Chen Xing who depend on each other for life.

Grandma Chen Xing is really a very kind and kind old man. She has endured a lifetime of suffering and cared for her children all her life. Now that she is old, her health has not been very good.In just one year, he has had two strokes.

One time, Chenxing's father and Chenxing were at home, so they hurriedly called 120 and sent her to the hospital in a timely manner, so there was nothing serious.

The second time was not so lucky, Lu Chenxing, a sophomore in high school, was in school, and his father was also out of the car. When his grandma struggled to dial his son's phone, Chenxing's father rushed home, already in serious condition.

After returning home from school, Lu Chenxing found out that something happened to his grandma, and Gu Ran accompanied him to the hospital. Fortunately, grandma had already been rescued by then.

Chen Xing was so frightened that he was shaking all over in the taxi to the hospital, and Gu Ran was always beside him to comfort him.Chen Xing almost collapsed when he heard that grandma was fine, but luckily Gu Ran supported him.

From childhood to adulthood, grandma was the closest person to him.Lu Chenxing, who has never felt a mother's love, got a lot of warmth from his grandma. Before the accident and after his father came back, his father was always indifferent to him, as if his mother's illness was caused by his birth. The relationship has eased a lot.

Therefore, for a long time, grandma played both the roles of father and mother in Lu Chenxing's life.

When I was a child, my grandma coaxed me to sleep at night, and when I was sick, my grandma carried me to the hospital. I was bullied by ignorant children, and it was my grandma who came to ask for an apology, not to mention taking care of Chen Xing meticulously every day.

On weekends, when other children are being picked up by their parents to go to tutoring classes, Chen Xing does homework at home and reads tutoring books by himself.

During the winter and summer vacations, other children went on a trip with their parents, and Chen Xing was still doing homework and reading.

He passed No.1 in the exam, so he deserves to be rewarded and hugged by his parents, but he still has to prepare for the next round of study and test.

What does he have?All he had was a glass of milk, a bowl of sweet soup brought to him by his grandma, an encouraging smile, and a heartfelt gratification and praise from the hardworking old man.

Of course Gu Ran knew the position of grandma in Chen Xing's heart, he felt very distressed, if only he knew Lu Chenxing earlier, it would be great to return to China sooner!He will definitely protect him, not let him be bullied, and not let him be so lonely.

During the winter vacation of the second year of high school, Gu Ran's parents did not return to China due to work reasons, but let Gu Ran fly to Canada.

His departure seemed to take away the joy of the winter vacation.

For Gu Ran's birthday last year, his parents gave him money to buy a laptop. The desktop at home was no longer needed, and he kept it if he wanted to. Why not use it for Lu Chenxing.

In fact, Lu Chenxing doesn't use a computer, he doesn't even use a mobile phone. These days, which student doesn't have a mobile phone? Before, his father said he wanted to buy one for him, but he refused on the grounds that the school can't bring a mobile phone, and it's useless to buy it. up.

Besides, the computer that Gu Ran wants to give him, there is only such a small space in the house, and he still lives in the living room, where should he put this computer after it is moved?

But Gu Ran said that when he went to Canada for more than [-] days, the two of them lost contact. If there is a computer at home, register him with QQ, and the two of them can contact each other every day, and they can chat with video software. Lu Chenxing My heart is moved, but I don’t even have a network cable at home, and it’s useless to have a computer.

Lu Chenxing doesn't buy a mobile phone or a computer just to save money for his family. He has applied for a network cable, and the monthly fee for surfing the Internet is not cheap. Lu Chenxing won't do that just for two people to say a few words in the past [-] days. .

With an idea, Gu Ran took out the house key and threw it to Lu Chenxing.

"If I'm not at home, you can help me look at the house."

Lu Chenxing:? ? ?

"Go to my home computer!" Gu Ran said.

"You're not at home, why should I go to your home computer?" Lu Chenxing was speechless.

"What if you need to use it? What if you want to check the information? What if you want to watch a movie? Go up and watch it yourself!"

"No need." After finishing speaking, Lu Chenxing left and ignored him.

On the third day of the winter vacation, Gu Ran was about to leave. Before he left, he went to Lu Chenxing's house and put the key in Lu Chenxing's hand, along with a note.

"That's it. The QQ and password I applied for are written on this paper. You know how to log in. You have used my computer before. Leave me a message!"

After finishing speaking, he pulled the suitcase and left. When Lu Chenxing put on his shoes and chased him out, Gu Ran had already boarded a taxi that had been waiting on the side of the road to the airport.

Lu Chenxing looked at the keys and the note in his hand, and felt a sense of security.

Gu Ran's home is here, and the key to his home is in his hands, so when he comes back, he will be able to see him immediately.Thinking of this, the wind outside seemed to be less cold. Holding the key and the note, Lu Chenxing slowly walked home with warmth in his heart.

This city is 12 hours away from Toronto, where Gu Ran and his parents live.

On the night of New Year's Eve, Lu Chenxing went to Gu Ran's house once, turned on the computer, and logged into the QQ that Gu Ran applied for him. There was only one friend on QQ: "Different fireworks", Lu Chenxing smiled, this is Gu Ran .

The profile picture of "Different Fireworks" is a bottle filled with stars. After using Meitu, the bottle looks bright and beautiful.The avatar was constantly beating, and Lu Chenxing clicked on it.A message appeared in front of my eyes, showing that the time was a week ago.

"Chen Xing, I'm here! Have you been here? Leave me a message!"

With only this piece of news, Lu Chenxing was a little disappointed, but only a little bit.

He looked at the time displayed on the computer, it was eight o'clock in the evening, and then he entered what he wanted to say.

"Gu Ran, today is New Year's Eve, at eight o'clock in the evening, you must not have woken up yet? I'm here, I wish you a happy new year in advance!"

After sending the message, Lu Chenxing waited for another 5 minutes, moved the mouse up and down several times, and finally closed the QQ interface, then turned off the computer, and walked out of Gu Ran's house.

In this world, tomorrow or accident does not know which will come first.On the night of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Grandma Lu was admitted to the hospital again.

This time grandma's cerebral infarction also caused complications of diabetes, and the person was already unconscious the next day.The doctor made it clear that it only takes two days for the family to prepare psychologically.

Chen Xing and her father begged a doctor for a long time, but the doctor couldn't help it. The old man was old and had suffered two strokes before. Cardiovascular disease and complications of diabetes were really powerless.

That afternoon, Chenxing closed his eyes all day and night, and went home in a daze to pack some clothes for grandma and take them to the hospital.After packing up the clothes to be taken to the hospital, closing the door and walking out of the community, Lu Chenxing, who was supposed to wait at the bus station, crossed the road and walked towards Gu Ran's house.

He felt physically and mentally exhausted. Grandma might not be able to make it through this time. He couldn't accept the thought of it. When the doctor told the family to get ready, he really felt like the sky was falling. The hospital desperately called the uncle and the two aunts, and even ran around asking the doctor to order various examinations and pay the fees.Lu Chenxing felt so helpless, he was about to lose one of his most important people, and lost his greatest support.

Gu Ran, where are you...?

Grandma was lying on the hospital bed, awake for a while and confused for a while. When she woke up for the last time, she said to him: "Xing Xing, take good care of yourself and Dad! Is Ran'er here? Let him take good care of you!"

Gu Ran, why are you not here, grandma is talking about you!

"Different Fireworks" on QQ left him a lot of comments.

"Chen Xing, I got up, have you gone back yet?"

"I'll wake up 10 minutes earlier! Leave me a message!"

"Morning Star, Happy New Year! Say Happy New Year to grandma and uncle for me!"

"Morning Star, the Chinese New Year is so lively here in Chinatown! It's just that there aren't any delicious restaurants, so I really want to come back."

"Chen Xing, I bought several gifts for you, I will give them to you when I come back!"

. . . . . .

Looking at the messages, Lu Chenxing cried.

I don't want anything, can you come back early?

"Gu Ran, sleep well."

After typing these words and pressing send, Lu Chenxing left.

Gu Ran, who is far away in Canada, how could he come back as soon as he said he would come back, it is better not to disturb him.

On the afternoon of the third day, the surroundings were surrounded by sadness. The initial crying and screaming had passed. Lu Chenxing walked out of the emergency room in a daze, and sat in the corner with his hands on his knees. All the sounds in his ears gradually faded away. terrible.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard a series of hurried footsteps from far to near, accompanied by the sound of wheels dragging on the ground, Lu Chenxing was startled, did they come to drag grandma away?

He raised his head in vain, but was stunned the next second when he saw the person coming.

The weather in February is the coldest. The man opened his down jacket and was covered with dust.His body was panting and heaving because of the haste, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his eyebrows were almost tangled together, and he was still dragging a large suitcase in his hand.

"Lu Chenxing!" The man anxiously called his name.

Gu Ran, it's Gu Ran!

As if seeing a savior, Lu Chenxing jumped up from the ground, rushed over, and threw himself into his arms. . .

He finally grasped a straw that could save his life.

Yesterday morning, Gu Ran woke up at one o'clock past eight as usual. Before brushing his teeth and washing his face, he habitually turned on his computer and opened QQ to see if his friends in China had left any messages for him.As a result, he saw the message Lu Chenxing sent him.

After four o'clock in the morning, tell him to sleep well?

The more Gu Ran looked at it, the more strange it became. Lu Chenxing should have sent the message after four o'clock in the afternoon. Why would he go to his house to send such a message at this time?Could it be to use a computer to look up information?Then I will definitely leave a message to tell myself!

Did you miss me?

Gu Ran smiled, suddenly wanted to call Lu Chenxing, he had Chenxing's home number.

I secretly dialed an overseas phone number, but no one answered, and I called again, still no one answered.Gu Ran panicked a little.

After eight o'clock in the evening, why is there no one in Lu Chenxing's house?Even if he goes out, grandma will definitely be at home.

Uneasy, I went to brush my teeth and wash my face, and went back to my room to call again, but still no one answered.Gu Ran felt uneasy, something was wrong!

He quickly started packing, pulling his suitcase downstairs when his parents were having breakfast.

"Gu Ran, what are you doing?"

"Mom, something may have happened at Lu Chenxing's house, I have to go back quickly."

Gu Ran's father frowned, and was about to say something when Gu Ran's mother stopped him.

"Come down and have something to eat first. I'll call you to book a plane ticket. After eating, I'll take you to the airport."

Gu Ran originally thought that he would have to tangle with his parents for a while, but he didn't expect his mother to react like this, and he was at a loss for what to do.

"Thank you mom!" He said tremblingly, then looked at his expressionless father, lowered his head like a child who did something wrong, "Thank you dad!"

Gu's mother's mobility is too strong, and everything was arranged in less than half an hour. She gave Gu Ran the car keys and asked him to pull the luggage out and put it in the trunk first, and wait in the car.

As soon as Gu Ran went out, his father complained and left: "Leave as soon as you say, I'm spoiled by you!"

"The child is grown up, you can't control him, well, don't be angry! You know he won't mess around."

Papa Gu thought for a while, sighed resignedly, and said, "Well...then... let me take him to the airport too!"

Gu Ran's mother laughed, and the two walked out of the house holding hands.

At the airport, Gu Ran hugged and bid farewell to his parents. After leaving, he didn’t know when he would see his son again. The always strong mother finally cried and hugged Gu Ran without letting go.

While father was comforting mother, he was also very sad.

"Mom, don't cry, we can still video every day, I will come to see you again during the summer vacation!"

"The ghost believes that you will come to see me, I don't know how happy I am there!" Mother Gu complained while wiping her tears.

"No matter how carefree and carefree I am, I always pretend to be my dear mother in my heart, I love you, mother~" As she said, she kissed her.

Gu Ran's heartlessness amused her mother again.

"Xiao Ran, if you need something urgently, don't forget to swipe your card. Also, ask for a blanket on the plane, so you don't catch a cold when you sleep!" Father Gu put his hand on his son's shoulder, and squeezed again and again.

Gu Ran's nose was a little sore, but he didn't want to shed tears, so that his parents would be more reluctant, and he would also be reluctant.He took a few deep breaths, hugged what he thought was the best mom and dad in the world for the last time, and waved goodbye to them.

The plane took off, and for twelve hours, Gu Ran sat uncomfortable at all. He was 1.8 meters tall, and he couldn't even stretch his legs straight in the economy class, and he couldn't sleep well. He felt indebted to his parents. Worried about landing Chenxing.

When he got off the plane, he felt dizzy all over. Gu Ran took a taxi and went straight to Luhang New Village.Because of the time difference, the local plane in Toronto took off at 1:05 p.m., and it was already 2:[-] p.m. the next day when he stood in front of Lu Chenxing's house, and this was already the fastest speed he could use.

After knocking on the door for a long time, there was no one. Finally, the neighbor's house was knocked out. It was Gu Ran who found out that something happened to her grandma and she went to the hospital.

After inquiring for a while in the inpatient department of Dongchang Hospital, I realized that the person was not living in at all, but in the emergency room.Gu Ran dragged the big suitcase and rushed over. Before he reached the door of the emergency room, he saw Lu Chenxing sitting on the ground curled up, and Gu Ran's heart ached.

From the moment he saw his message, he was hanging on his heart, thinking about half of the world, and rushed back with Feidi at the fastest speed. The person who wanted to confirm that he was okay raised his head and looked at him , at that moment, Gu Ran tasted the feeling of distress, it was very, very painful!

There were still wet tears in the corners of his eyes, his face was haggard, his eyes were already red and swollen, and his lower eyelids were blue. The expression of that frightened little animal turned into a deep embarrassment the moment he saw him. grief.

Gu Ran didn't know how to speak, but the man rushed over and hugged him tightly!Then, I heard his broken cry.

"Chen Xing, I'm here, I'm sorry! Grandma, I'm sorry..." Gu Ran hugged his star, sobbing.

Lu Chenxing recalled the scene of his grandma's death, and couldn't help sobbing softly. Only then did he remember that he hadn't cried for many years.

At that time, Gu Ran was so kind to himself.

You asked me back then, did grandma leave any words?Did you let me take care of me?It made me cry again.

But Gu Ran, you have abandoned me for five years.You can't be lazy like this, I want you to come back to me!

May I?
