Lu Shaoyan looked at the old man who died with regret, and laughed twice.
"You are really a husband and wife. You are the same before you die. You don't want to die, but she is doing it for you, old man. You made money. Some people will miss you until they die. Remember you and think of you. She wants to see you even in her dreams." When you arrive in Huangquan, she will definitely be waiting for you. If you see her, if you coax her casually, you will probably coax her back." Lu Shaoyan looked up at the gray sky, the rain was about to come, and the inexplicably depressed person Out of breath, he murmured: "My mother is so cheap, for a person like you, she has been sad and painful all her life and is still happy."
Lu Shaoyan choked up for a moment, his Adam's apple twitched up and down, and his voice gradually dropped.
"You raised me for more than ten years, but lost me for more than ten years, and let me be called a bastard. What's the use of your love and compensation for me?" Lu Shaoyan sighed, "So you think , Will those loves after I return to China be enough to make up for the harm done to me back then?"
Lu Shaoyan looked at him, gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "You are dreaming! You will die when you die. In this life, I will not be sad for you, shed a single tear for you, and I will not miss you and remember you."
Mr. Lu still looked at him silently, and Lu Shaoyan's face was reflected in those dull eyes.
"But come to think of it, you've had enough glory in this life. There are many people who will cry for you after death. When the news comes out tomorrow, many people will come to mourn you and offer incense to you. Every year someone will worship you. In the future There will be more people remembering you, even if you die, you will be beautiful, but my mother died alone in the hospital, until today, only you and I know that she died, she is so pitiful."
Lu Shaoyan babbled for a while, and simply sat in front of old man Lu, looking at himself reflected in the old man's eyes.
"Don't look, I won't agree to you." Lu Shaoyan said: "I am not against Lu Beichuan, I am against your Lu family, don't worry, if the Lu family does not fall, I will not give up for a day, Maybe, on the day when your Lu family falls, I will go to your grave to burn a stick of incense and tell you the good news, I know that what you care about most is the Lu family."
Lu Shaoyan raised his hand and gently closed old master Lu's eyes.
The skin touched by the palm was still warm, and the rough touch came, and Lu Shaoyan slowly lowered his head.
His whole body trembled slightly, and then he rested his head on the side of the bed, clutching the old man's hand tightly with one hand, and covering his eyes with the other.
"Yanyan, don't listen to your mother, dad will support you no matter what you want to do when you grow up! Even if you become a prodigal son, dad will make you the richest and most carefree rich second generation!"
"Speak less, manly man, if you do something wrong, you have to take responsibility! If you make a mistake, you are wrong, there is no reason."
"Bastard! You are a bastard and dare to enter the door of my Lu family! Get out of here! Listen carefully, whoever dares to let him in again, get out of Lu's house!"
"Speak less. Dad made a mistake back then. Dad apologized to you. When you come back, dad apologized to you back then, okay?"
"Yanyan, promise...promise father, absolutely... absolutely..."
The past is vivid in his mind, and those scenes that Lu Shaoyan thought he had forgotten, now really appear in his mind.
All his happiness, hatred, humiliation, and all his past have made him who he is today.
Not his fault!
From beginning to end, he was right!
One of the window sills was left open, and a sudden gust of wind blew the curtains upward.
A sobbing sound forced out from his throat, and Lu Shaoyan rested his forehead on the back of Mr. Lu's hand, trembling violently, crying in pain.
***
The corridor outside the ward was full of people, all of them looked sad and stretched their necks to look into the ward. Several elderly people discussed together in a corner for a while, and then pushed out a representative and walked up to Lu Beichuan.
"Beichuan, I grew up watching you, so I won't hide some things from you," said the old man leaning on a cane, full of elder style, "It's not a day or two since the old man is in poor health. It is of course a good thing to be able to survive, but you have also heard from the doctor that the situation is probably not optimistic, and you have prepared everything that should be prepared. You are the grandson of the old man, and no one can surpass you."
Lu Beichuan couldn't see any clues on his face, he just respectfully said: "Fourth Grandpa, Grandpa still has a son, how can I get past Uncle."
"Uncle?" Fourth Grandpa sneered and lowered his voice, "Both Lu Shaoyan and his mother were kicked out by the old man back then. Although the reason was not clearly stated, everyone knew what was going on. What did you say later? After checking it out, it was all a misunderstanding. Let me see if it was a misunderstanding. I have to talk about it. It has been so many years, the old man is old, nostalgic, and human nature, so I called him back, but you tell me, I have been abroad for more than ten years, and I have not come back to do my filial piety to the old man for more than ten years. Now that I have come back, in just two or three years, I have coaxed the old man to give him all the real estate under his name, as well as overseas investments. Overseas investment is a lot of money, and that woman is no longer the wife of the Lu family, so why take our Lu family's overseas assets?"
The fourth master is the younger brother of Mr. Lu, and he has lived a good life under the protection of the Lu family these years.
"Beichuan, I didn't say it. The old man is biased sometimes. Who doesn't know that the Lu family is supported by you, Lu Beichuan. Without you, where is the Lu family today! Lu Shaoyan, mother and son, have lived abroad for many years. What are you doing? Nothing Do it, just come back for two years to make the old man happy at his knees, and coax most of the family property over, how can he deserve it!"
Between the lines, it was full of praise for Lu Beichuan.
Lu Beichuan listened, his expression unclear, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
The fourth master lowered his voice, and continued: "The old man is confused and we can't follow him. How can Lu Shaoyan take away those family properties? At least half of the score will be given to you, right?"
Lu Beichuan understood, "Do you think grandpa's property is distributed unevenly?"
The fourth master sighed, "It's inevitable that you'll be confused when you're old, but seeing how the old man looks like, let's not provoke him, just take good care of him, if there's anything, we'll talk about it after a while."
The implication is that the old man is still alive, so don't mention this matter, and wait until the old man is dead, and then worry about it.
Lu Beichuan didn't respond positively, but said indifferently: "Fourth Grandpa, logically speaking, Grandpa, you, and uncle are all my elders, and I really don't have the right to talk about elders."
"you… "
"Beichuan," Ye Zhen walked over from the end of the corridor, holding Lu Beichuan's hand and looking at the old man in front of her, "Fourth Grandpa, I'm sorry, I have some important matters to discuss with Beichuan."
Fourth master didn't continue talking, nodded and walked to the side.
"What's the matter?" Lu Beichuan asked her in a low voice.
Ye Zhen didn't say it directly, but looked at the people around her and said in a low voice, "Come here."
Ye Zhen brought Lu Beichuan to the doctor's office, closed the door and whispered to the doctor, "Director, please tell my husband what you know."
The chief physician sighed, with a serious face, and handed some films and Mr. Lu's case to Lu Beichuan, "Mr. Lu, it's like this. Mr. Lu has been doing physical examinations in this hospital these years, and he hasn't checked us regularly for the past two years. I also felt that it was not appropriate, so I sent a doctor to check on the old man's condition. As far as I know, the old man was still in good health a year ago."
Lu Beichuan stared at him, "Director, tell me what you have to say."
"I found something unusual during the old man's inspection. Of course, this is just my guess. I will have to analyze the specific situation later..."
Before the chief doctor finished speaking, there was an urgent knock on the door. A nurse opened the door without permission, and looked at the chief doctor anxiously, "Director, the old man is not well!"
Lu Beichuan and Ye Zhen looked at each other, and they quickly followed the chief doctor to the ward. Many doctors and nurses entered the ward quickly, and after a while, they pushed Lu Shaoyan, who was in a daze, out.
"what happened!"
Someone started writing to complain about Lu Shaoyan.
But Lu Shaoyan was depressed, with a forbearing expression, and under the questioning of everyone, he didn't say a word.
The group of doctors didn't stay in the ward for long before they came out. The chief doctor took off his mask, looked around the crowd, shook his head and sighed at Lu Beichuan and the others, "My condolences."
"What... what's going on? Wasn't it fine just now?" A group of people rushed into the ward, and then there was a burst of wailing, "It's only been so long...Brother! Brother, open your eyes Look at us!"
There was a lot of crying in the ward.
There were only a few people left sporadically in the corridor.
Porridge was led by Mrs. Lu, and he looked around the room, not understanding what happened, let alone why the people in the room were crying. He raised his head and asked Mrs. Lu who was also covering her face and crying, "Grandma, why are you crying?" ah?"
Mrs. Lu knelt down and hugged him tightly, "Because Congee's great-grandpa is gone."
"Isn't great-grandpa sick? Congee porridge can't get out of bed when he's sick. Why can grandpa still go? Where did he go?"
Looking at Congee Congee's immature and innocent face, Mrs. Lu bit her lower lip tightly and said nothing.
Lu Beichuan said to Ye Zhen: "You take porridge back to the old house first. I'm here at the hospital, but there's no one at the old house. It's all up to you and Mom."
Ye Zhen nodded, her heart was also very heavy. In the past few years she has been in the Lu family, Mr. Lu has always been kind to her, and he loves porridge even more.
"I see. My mother and I are in the old house. Don't worry."
The old man's body in the ward has been covered with a white cloth, the medical equipment has lost its use, and the whole room is watertight. Lu Beichuan stood at the door and looked at old man Lu from a distance, and then entered the chief doctor's office.
