After the operation, Jianghuai delayed it for more than a week, and his life finally came to an end.

That afternoon, he felt that his spirit was a little better. Although he had no energy to speak, he compared his gestures and asked Jiang Wan'er to push him out to bask in the sun.

Many plum blossoms were planted in the yard of the hospital. They bloomed just in the early winter, and a large area of ​​bright red came into view, looking over and enjoying the eyes.

"Maternal grandfather, the weather is so good today, and the plum blossoms in the yard are blooming happily!" Jiang Wan'er squatted down and tucked the blanket on Jiang Huai's legs.

"Okay, okay." Jiang Huai, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said two words clearly.

These are the last two words of his life.

The moment the sunset slowly fell, his hand also drooped softly and weakly, and from then on, he went to another world.

"Maternal grandfather, what's wrong with you? Wake up, don't scare me." Jiang Wan'er discovered his grandfather's abnormality in time, and said as she boldly explored his heartbeat.

The heart that had been beating for seventy-seven years has finally retired since then.

============

Although the funeral at Jianghuai was not grand, it was not simple. Because he was a retired cadre during his lifetime, the people who came to pay their respects were old cadres of the same period as him, but the younger generations who were in power now did not even say a word of greeting.

"The tea is cold when people leave." Jiang Shuhong used four simple words to describe her parents' situation.

"Everyone has left, it doesn't matter what form it is." Luo Jing's attitude is much more open-minded than her daughter.

Jiang Wan'er knelt quietly in front of the mourning hall without saying a word. Since her mother left home due to divorce, she was her grandfather, who was raised by her words and deeds. Over the years, she felt that she was not their pride, but she had never embarrassed the two old people. But this time, she looked at her rising belly and felt her "shamelessness". In the secular eyes, pregnancy before marriage is not the case?

"Wan'er, if you have a big belly, don't kneel for too long. Otherwise, you will be very tired." Jiang Shuhong said caringly.

"Thank you, I'm fine." After getting along, the relationship between mother and daughter has eased a little, but she still couldn't call out the "mom" who had been separated for ten years.

============

Looking at the portrait of Jianghuai, the always loving elder, Tao Jiujiu felt sad. Is human life so empty? A living person could speak with a smile two months ago, but today two months later, he lay in the cold tomb.

This is the first time that she felt the impermanence of life. It is also from this matter that she knows to be grateful and cherish.

============

Luo Kaiwen appeared in front of Jiang Wan'er again as a mourner. He acted calmly, as if he had put down his previous relationship with Jiang Wan'er. From the beginning of entering the mourning hall, he never looked at him. He only had the portrait of Jiang Huai in his eyes, and he didn't even look at Jiang Wan'er.

Well, he let it go. Jiang Wan'er carefully stroked the more prominent belly, as if she could feel the fetal movement in her abdomen. She hoped that she could lean in her husband's arms like those happy wives, and then chuckled and said: Kaiwen, do you know, our children are kicking me.

But she could only look at Luo Kaiwen politely as her master, suppressing all her feelings.

When Tao Jiujiu saw Luo Kaiwen appear, she was worried that Jiang Wan'er could not bear it emotionally, so she asked to stay with her.

The development of the matter was not what she thought, and it did not develop to the point where it was uncontrollable. As the two parties involved, they were able to treat each other with courtesy, which surprised Tao Jiujiu, the bystander.

Seeing Luo Kaiwen say goodbye and leave, Tao Jiujiu stayed attentively and quietly followed.

"...Wait a minute!" As soon as Luo Kaiwen opened the car door, he heard a crisp cry behind him.

He looked back and found that it was Taojiujiu, who had been met several times.

"What's the matter?" He guessed that the matter might be related to Jiang Wan'er, so he looked around a few more times when he asked, paying attention to whether there were any acquaintances.

"Wan'er has suffered a lot for you, I hope..." Tao Jiujiu bit her lip before saying, "Don't disturb her anymore, let her live a peaceful life."

"Is she asking you to tell me?" Luo Kaiwen looked at Tao Jiujiu without surprise.

"We are as close as sisters, I know how to treat her best." Tao Jiujiu replied, "If you can't give her happiness, don't provoke her again. If it weren't for hiding you, why would she run to the countryside? Why couldn't she appear in time when Grandpa Jiang needs her most?"

Every rhetorical question from Tao Jiujiu made Luo Kaiwen speechless. He always thought that he loved Jiang Wan'er, but never thought that his love would put her in such a difficult situation.

"Okay, I agree." Luo Kaiwen nodded.

Tao Jiujiu sighed and couldn't help but wonder, why was the person Luo Kaiwen married not Jiang Wan'er? If he had married her, why would he have today's regrets? She didn't know much about Luo Kaiwen and Jiang Wan'er. How to start and what happened in the process, she never asked in detail. At this moment, looking at Luo Kaiwen's lonely figure, she suddenly wanted to know what coincidence to make these two seemingly unrelated people know each other and fall in love?

============

Shen Qingying's appearance surprised Tao Jiujiu. Shen Yan has been leaving Ye's group for some time. During this period, she and Ye Hongtao took a tortuous and warm road from confirming their relationship to getting engaged. Sometimes she would think that it would be great if Shen Yan was still there. She felt that Shen Yan was a kind elder to her and could share almost all her thoughts with her. What's more, she was Shen Qingying's mother, and perhaps the true love of her father Tao Haiyang...

"Sister Jiujiu, I'm here to tell you something." Shen Qingying spoke solemnly.

"Qingying, you do it first..." Tao Jiujiu looked at the half-sister who was much younger than her in front of her and concluded that she must have encountered something difficult. Before Shen Qingying could tell what was going on, she had decided to do her best to help the other party no matter what difficulties the other party had.

Since I saw the same photo in the rental house where Shen Yan lives and her father Tao Haiyang's study, since I heard Shen Qingying say that the girl in Shen Yan's arms was her Shen Qingying, Tao Jiujiu has determined that Shen Qingying is her sister.

"My mother is sick, it's uremia." Shen Qingying looked very sad. "The doctor said that if she didn't have surgery to change her kidneys in time, she would... in less than half a year..."

Tao Jiujiu knew what the word that Shen Qingying didn't say was. In just half a week, she came into contact with this word again.

Taojiujiu is not a doctor and does not know what kind of disease is an incurable disease, but she has heard of uremia and knows that there is no cure unless the kidney is replaced.

Why is things in the world so unfair? How can a person with such a beautiful face get such a disease?
