Chapter forty-ninth family
After my father stayed in the hospital for a while, the doctor asked his mother to take her home for recuperation. After all, my grandfather said hello to the doctor before leaving and said that the savings at home could not be supported. He kept his father in the hospital for treatment. It just so happened that his father didn't want to stay in the hospital anymore.
In his words, it's too boring, I can't stand it.
But after he got home, his father could only lie in bed all day, so the grandfather made him a pair of crutches, so that he could go out for a walk when he was bored.
Since my father had an accident, my mother has put aside her work in the factory. Her food and drink were all based on her previous meager savings and the help of her grandfather's family.
Life was barely passing by. Although it was very hard, there was no conflict between the two people in the middle, and the father did not think about the past. The mother stayed with her father every day, lying in bed, and accompanying her when she went out for a walk. Basically, the two were inseparable from the time her father was injured.
Except for the time when my mother went downstairs to cook, my father was the only one at that time.
Grandma has been leaving for almost a month, and my father has never mentioned his mother's affairs in front of others since that day. Even if the villagers ask, my father will only bypass this topic and say something else.
I don’t know what my father was feeling at that time. When I was injured and needed my mother’s care the most, it happened that she left me. Maybe she was like a child who had lost her support. She couldn’t squat on the ground and cry like when she was a child. My father suppressed this.
...
After being introduced by my grandfather, my grandmother worked as an aunt who watched the elevator in her office building. Because she got it in, her salary was pretty good.
Although she had made up her mind not to go back, she was still worried about her father and mother in her heart. She didn't know how the couple was doing now. When she left, her father seemed to have changed, and her mother seemed to be very excited. She ate well this month and lived well, but she always cared about the courtyard when she was sleeping at night.
Grandma thought she had been working here for a while, to see if she could ask for leave from her grand uncle to go back and have a look, and to be assured that she could work here well.
Grandma looked at the watch given to her by her grand uncle to see the time. It was almost time to get off work. Grandma pressed the elevator floor to the top floor, which is the office of her grand uncle.
My mother said that my uncle was a big official a long time ago, and his office was naturally very generous. The office building on the largest floor was his own office.
Grandma knocked on the door:
"Uncle, can I come in?"
Seeing his niece coming to find him, his grandmother smiled and signaled her to come in.
Since my grandmother agreed to follow her grand uncle to work in this city, she has been much more relieved, not only because of her love for her niece, but also to comfort her brothers.
"Uncle, look, I've been working here for a while, and I've always been worried about Minfeng. Anyway, my work here is stable and I'm not very busy. I want to ask you for a leave to go back to see them, so I'll come back after just a few glances. I'm so relieved, right?"
When my grandmother saw her grandmother walking into the office, she thought that her grandmother might have to ask for leave from me to go back and see. It is actually not difficult to go back. It doesn’t matter if no one sees this elevator, but I am afraid that my grandmother will never come back after she goes back. Then I will invite her again, and as a high-ranking official, I will not be able to hold on to her face.
"Yu Lian, it's not that my uncle doesn't let you go. It's a trivial matter if no one sees this elevator. It's also a trivial matter if you take leave. I'm afraid that you won't come back again, so I stay there again to live a hard life. Then I'm really shameless to go downstairs to see your father."
Grandma quickly explains:
"Bao, ma'ao, uncle, what are you saying? Uncle, you have a good person. Seeing that my father is still growing, I'll go back and take a look. I'll come back after a glance. Really. Life here is so good. Why should I stay there? You said, right? I'll just let the stone in my heart be put down."
"It's really just a glance?"
"Just one glance."
"That's OK."
When grandma heard her grandmother agreed, she quickly stood up and left her grandmother's office so that the cunning old man would not regret it.
Originally, my grandmother wanted the driver to drive his car to take my grandmother back, but my grandmother refused and said that she didn't want to bother her grandmother.
Grandma took a long-distance bus back to the county town overnight, and brought the money she earned this month and some fruits.
...
It was almost noon. My father said he was a little tired and closed his eyes and rested for a while. My mother went downstairs to prepare lunch. Although the savings and the little grandfather's help were not much, the grandmother would also grow some vegetables on the ground. Although the food was a little light, it was also good for my father's injuries.
I said I wanted to rest, but my father wanted my mother to go out for some breath, and it would be boring to be with me all day long.
As soon as he closed his eyes, his father remembered the day when something happened to him. In fact, Xiaohui's heart has faded now. The only thing his father can't get over is grandma's departure.
As he thought about it, my father felt a warm current penetrated into his lower body and was about to vent it in a parabolic way. The embarrassing thing was that my mother had just gone downstairs to cook, so she couldn't call her up to help her pee at this time. This was something that a man could not do.
So, my father decided to be self-sufficient and climbed to the toilet with his only other foot and his own hands.
Unfortunately, when my father climbed to the entrance of the stairs, his hands finally couldn't bear the weight of his body, and he rolled directly from the second floor stairs to the turn of the stairs.
The movement was not small, and the wailing of my father after he rolled down, letting my mother stop the work at hand and run upstairs immediately.
This scene is actually not very bloody. If the mother was not the father's wife, she might even laugh.
My father's legs were still on the stairs, his head was in the corner of the stairs, and his hands were spread on the ground. My father's pants were wet with a warm liquid. Fortunately, my father's bones were usually strong, and if this one fell, he would get a little skin and nothing else was fine.
My father didn't know how to describe how he became like this, so he didn't care, so he quickly pulled his father's arm and placed it on his shoulder. At this time, my mother's slightly raised belly made her squat down very hard, but now there is no one in the family, and there is no one else who can help her husband except herself.
At this moment, the couple called a familiar call in their ears:
"Minfeng, I'm back."
Grandma walked into the courtyard happily with a bag of fruit on her back. Her first reaction was to go upstairs, but she saw her mother who was helping her father up.
"Hey, what's wrong with this?"
Grandma hurried up to help help her father stand up, but in response to grandma, her father stood up and pushed her with both hands behind her back. Grandma's figure slanted and almost fell down from the upper floor.
Then, the mother didn't say anything, and the father didn't look at her grandma again. The mother slowly helped her father upstairs, helped her take off her pants soaked in urine, wiped them with a towel and covered them with a quilt.
I haven't come back for a month. What happened to my family? How could my son become like this?
Grandma hurried upstairs to inquire about the situation:
"Minfeng, mom is back, how could you become like this, Minfeng."
Looking at my father like this, my grandmother's eyes turned red in an instant. If she knew that her son would become like this, she would not leave even if she beat her to death.
But the answer is that grandma is a very quiet voice:
"roll."
Grandma ignored her father and walked forward to grab her father's hand:
"You heard from Mom, Mom doesn't know you are like this. If I knew I wouldn't leave. Mom is going to make money..."
Before grandma could finish her words, my father said "get out" and turned over and said that he didn't care about grandma again.
Seeing that my father was like this, my mother pulled her grandmother downstairs.
Grandma sat in the kitchen and wiping tears while taking out the two thousand dollars in her pocket:
"What happened? Why did Minfeng become like this? If something happened to him, I wouldn't have left. I came back today just to send you the money I earned there. To be honest, I have been thinking about Minfeng and you all the time I went there for so long, and I couldn't sleep every day. This is what I looked like when I came back."
When the mother looked at the money she took out, she also understood that her grandmother did this for the sake of this family, but her father's situation did require comfort from her parents. When her father was most sad, her grandfather and her grandmother were not there, and it would take time for her father to pass this hurdle.
My father was lying on the bed and remembered how many times he had thought about his mother's face in the past month. But in a month, if it weren't for the owner of the Guazi Shop, he might have gone underground to find Xiaohui, and his mother wouldn't even know that something happened to him when she got home.
If it were me, I would be sad.
The mother comforted the crying grandmother, and hoped that she would not leave rashly in the future. To be honest, it is enough for two people to do three things. She does not need to go out to earn money to support the family or something. When the father is ready, the grandmother stays in the yard to clean up like before. The father and mother go out to work, wait for the child to be born, and when the grandfather comes out, it is a good time for the family to live like this.
My grandmother never came to the courtyard since then, and my grandmother didn't go out and said she would make any money, but I believe my father never forgot about this matter.
