Chapter 549: Gone
Chapter 549 Passing away
Everyone was silent for a moment after hearing this.
How to make Zhang Ma happy? How to make Zhang Ma want to live well?
This is really a difficult problem.
But I can only think hard.
After a while, Ye Shu saw that they were silent and said directly, "Let's go cook and eat first. Everyone has been busy all day. We will consider these things after dinner."
"Okay." Lu Feiran replied. She walked into the kitchen first, holding the spatula usually held by Zhang's mother in a daze, and then went to get some potatoes to peel.
If you want to add some mushrooms, add some corn and potatoes, and stew a nutritious and delicious pork rib soup.
Zhang Ma didn't eat much today, so it was just a good time to replenish her body.
A few people cooked together and it was done quickly. It was full enough to set two tables.
The man was also busy and sent away the guests. Lu Shulin came over to ask Ye Shu about Zhang's mother.
Ye Shu didn't speak, just shook his head at him.
Lu Shulin's eyes dimmed slightly and he sighed.
His broad back was a bit stooped.
Yu Ran sighed when she saw the white hair on his forehead. Unknowingly, even Lu Shulin was over sixty years old.
During dinner in the evening, several people left food specially for Zhang Ma, and then quickly finished their own meals and went to feed Zhang Ma.
When they arrived at Zhang Ma's room, the specially hired nurse shook her head at them, indicating that Zhang Ma had been unconscious since they left.
Yu Ran walked to the bed, half-knelt in front of the bed, and moved several acupuncture points on Zhang Ma's body. After a while, Zhang Ma opened her eyes and saw that Yu Ran was still a little confused.
As if he didn't recognize who it was, he said after a while, "Is it Yu Yatou?"
Trying to get up, Yu Ran quickly walked forward and helped Zhang Ma to get up, "You drink some soup first, we just stewed it, it's very fragrant."
Zhang Ma turned her head with some resistance, "I'm not hungry."
"You have to eat something even if you're not hungry, otherwise it will be unbearable if you haven't eaten all day."
"Besides, are you willing to let the soup we stew for you go to waste?"
After hearing this, Zhang Ma opened her mouth slightly and agreed to eat.
The elderly have gone through the era when they could not afford food, clothing and warmth. They know how precious food is and hate wasting it. As long as Yu Ran said she would not eat it, she would waste it, so Zhang Ma braced herself and prepared to eat.
Yu Ran scooped up the soup with a spoon and blew on it to avoid burning Zhang Ma. He waited until the temperature of the soup was about the same before bringing it to her mouth.
Zhang Ma closed her mouth and didn't want to eat, but she ate the spoon when she saw Yu Ran kept holding it up. Then Yu Ran didn't want to feed her anymore, "Yu girl, give it to me, I can eat it myself."
, no need to feed.”
"Really? That's fine, you can eat it yourself."
Yu Ran gave her the spoon, but Zhang Ma's hands were trembling and she couldn't hold it firmly. She couldn't hold it tightly for a long time.
The light in the old man's eyes gradually dimmed, and finally he seemed to compromise, "Forget it, just feed me. I'm really old and can't even feed myself."
Obviously she had thought that she would never be taken care of by anyone when she got old, and she didn't want to trouble anyone, especially the Lu family. The Lu family had been good enough to her, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were benevolent and righteous, but she was getting old.
It also causes trouble for others.
Yu Ran couldn't see her like this, and felt depressed and uncomfortable in her heart, "Mother Zhang, don't think like this. It's just that you have been sick these days and are not in good health. When you get better, you will be able to be active again. I
I still want to eat the braised pork you made. Both Xiangshou and Xingxing like to eat it. Mom Zhang, you must not be willing to let us down, right?"
Zhang Ma smiled and looked a little better, but she did not answer Yu Ran's words.
In the end, Zhang Ma couldn’t drink it anymore after just a few sips.
She still wanted to drink, but Yu Ran felt so uncomfortable that she felt like vomiting after just one sip, and he couldn't bear to let her keep drinking.
At the end of the day, the bowl of soup was less than half.
Lu Feiran and the others looked at him with uncomfortable red eyes.
If an old man can't even eat, he is really having a hard time resisting.
In the middle of the night, several people took turns guarding Zhang Ma, not daring to leave her.
But in the early morning, Zhang's mother suddenly ran out of breath.
There was always a smile on her face, as if she had dreamed of something good. When they discovered that Zhang Ma had not moved for a long time, they realized something was wrong, and when they poked their noses, they found that there was no sound.
Several people felt extremely uncomfortable, but they still handled Zhang Ma's funeral affairs in an orderly manner.
Unlike Mr. Lu, Zhang Ma is relatively well-known, so she doesn't need to hold a big funeral.
Just invite a few juniors who Zhang Ma loved very much during her lifetime to have a meal together and then give her a gift.
Zhang's mother left in her sleep, with a smile on her lips when she left, which shows that she didn't feel any pain at all.
So although a few people feel uncomfortable, they can still accept it.
Mr. Lu was buried in the early morning, and Zhang Ma held a funeral the next day.
Zhang Yang also came on the day of the funeral. His eyes were red from crying. Zhang Ma had watched him grow up, and he was so greedy that he often acted coquettishly towards Zhang Ma and asked her to make delicious food for him.
When Zhang Yang was a child, he got into fights and was afraid of being scolded by his parents when he returned home, so he hid in the Lu family's house. Then Zhang's mother treated his wounds, washed his dirty clothes, and made him a bowl of hot noodles.
eat.
As long as the injuries from the fight were not serious, he could always get by in front of his mother.
Finally, Zhang Ma's ashes were placed in the box. The Lu family made an appointment to go to the countryside where Zhang Ma's husband and son were buried in two days, hoping to bury Zhang Ma with the two people she loved most.
We couldn't stay together for a long time due to various reasons during our lifetime, but we can always do it after death.
After dealing with Mr. Lu and Ma Zhang's matters, Yu Ran and Lu Yujing were so exhausted that they almost fainted.
I lay down directly on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
When I got up, I felt much better.
In the evening, Yu Ran and Ye Shu cooked together. After cooking, he subconsciously said, "I'll ask Grandpa and Zhang Ma to come down for dinner."
After he finished speaking, everyone was stunned.
Ye Shu, Lu Yujing and the others also fell silent.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was a little stiff for a while, filled with sadness.
Yu Ran didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just said, "I forgot, let's eat first."
I have been busy these past few days and have not felt anything. I have no time to think about whether I will feel uncomfortable.
But at this moment, after finishing all the work, looking at the empty living room, and then looking at the place where Zhang Ma and Mr. Lu often hang out, I found that no one was there for a long time, and I started to feel a tearing pain in my heart. It was not severe, but it was just that.
This kind of endless pain is excruciating.
Yu Ran suddenly thought of what she had heard from others in her previous life: when the person closest to her passed away, most people were actually confused and had not yet reacted, so they could handle the funeral so calmly.
Then when others came over to say condolences, it was still a bit confusing, and I felt that I was not that sad.
It even feels fake when I see people with ordinary connections crying and wailing as if they can't breathe at a funeral.
But after this period of busyness has passed, I subconsciously call that name in every familiar corner, and then realize that the person is no longer there. That is the most painful thing.
The most important thing is that this pain will spread to every part of your life...
