Chapter 134: Season 34
Chapter 134: Season 34
After Xie Luo had applied a simple eye mask, the two of them rushed to grandma's ward without stopping.
My grandma, who I hadn’t seen for a few days, had lost a lot of weight and it was obvious that she had suffered a lot.
Her face was pale. After hearing the noise, she immediately opened her eyes and looked towards the door. When she saw it was Xie Luo, she tried to struggle to stand up.
"soy Mujer."
Xie Luo hurriedly walked to her side, while Ji You stood quietly aside, watching grandma giving Xie Luo instructions.
"You've lost weight. How can you starve yourself to lose weight in just two days? Did you not eat well?"
"It's been so hot lately, I can't eat, grandma."
"Nonsense, how can the weather be hot? I remember it's already winter and the New Year is almost here."
"There's still about a month until New Year, Grandma."
"I don't know if an old woman like me will have the chance to go back for the New Year. I remember you loved the fried pork I made the most. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it this year."
The winter here is not that cold, but people usually start to get busy about ten days before the Chinese New Year.
Grandma originally thought that there was nothing wrong with her body, but after the operation, she had no strength in her whole body.
She even had a not-so-good thought in her mind, that is, she might... might not only not be able to celebrate this New Year, but she might not be able to celebrate all the New Years in the future.
Grandma naturally understood her own body condition. This time the illness was very aggressive and was slowly eroding the vitality in her body.
As the two of them were talking, grandma suddenly sighed and said, "I want to be discharged from the hospital before the New Year. What do you think?"
"Grandma... the doctor said you still need to recuperate. Can we not rush to leave the hospital and treat your illness in the hospital?"
"You spent all your money on my illness. How are you going to study in the future? Huh? I can't get better, you little bitch."
Grandma turned her head away, her eyes were red. She had been strong all her life, but at this moment she said something so humble: "I don't want to be a burden to you. Anyway, I am old and have lived long enough. It doesn't matter whether this disease is cured or not."
She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, but Xie Luo took the lead and hugged her.
The girl hugged her, and her emotions, which had been almost under control after crying, collapsed again.
She could listen to the doctor say this, and she could listen to other people say this, but she just couldn't bear to hear her grandma say that she wouldn't live long.
That made Xie Luo collapse more than any other words.
"I don't want it. I want treatment."
"I don't allow you to say these things, grandma. It's not a serious illness. We can cure it. We can definitely cure it."
"Please stop talking nonsense, I'm scared, grandma."
Grandma quickly wiped away her tears: "Don't cry, don't cry, I'm just talking casually, I'll treat it, can't I treat it?"
"... ...Um."
Ji You walked out quietly without disturbing the atmosphere between the two of them.
Although grandma's illness was kept secret, she could sense it herself, and even if it was kept secret, it would not have been possible to keep it a secret for long.
But Xie Luo didn't dare to say anything. She didn't dare to say anything.
If she really said that, grandma would definitely leave without caring and decide not to continue the treatment.
Grandma was frightened by Xie Luo's crying. Although she had no hope for herself, she did not bring up the matter of being discharged from the hospital again.
Ji You just happened to bring food, and the atmosphere between the two was broken.
After Ji You left again, grandma no longer thought about hospitalization and treatment. She pulled Xie Luo and asked, "Stinky girl, that man is not a doctor, right? He is wearing the same school uniform as you. Is he your classmate?"
"Yes."
"Why haven't I heard you talk about him? The kid looks smart and well-proportioned, but like you, he's too skinny."
"What's his name?"
"Ji You, he's in the same rocket class as me. He's a friend I knew before, but we didn't have much contact for some reason. His family is pretty strict."
"Tell me the truth, do you like him? Or does he like you?"
"Ah? Ahem, ahem, ahem, why did you suddenly get into this? There's none of that, grandma. We're just ordinary friends."
Xie Luo blinked and looked away guiltily.
She couldn't fool grandma with this little trick. After all, grandma raised Xie Luo since he was a child. She could tell what Xie Luo wanted just by looking at him, let alone lying.
So just now, she also knew that her illness might not be simple.
But no matter how complicated it is, aren’t there just two endings?
Either die or live.
She has lived long enough.
If it weren’t for Xie Luo, grandma probably wouldn’t have survived until now.
She is Xie Luo's light, but isn't Xie Luo also the hope that keeps her going?
When my grandmother was young, she was also the daughter of a wealthy family. Later, she fell into poverty and was promised to Xie Luo’s grandfather.
The two of them only had one daughter. One day when my grandmother was pregnant, my grandfather went to work in the fields. For some unknown reason, he fell down in the field and never got up again.
So grandma had to raise Xie Luo's mother alone. It was not easy for a widow to raise a child at that time, especially for a girl who was not favored by everyone.
In order to avoid being bullied, grandma changed from her usual gentle self to become extremely tough.
But her efforts were not worth it, because after Xie Luo's mother was admitted to university, she went to work in another place and did not come back all year round. When she came back, she was cursing and pulling the little girl.
The little girl looked timid and her clothes were worn out. From what Xie Luo's mother said, it seemed that she was going to be sent to an orphanage, but the orphanage refused to accept her.
Xie Luo's mother then brought him back, wanting to see if there was anyone in the village willing to adopt Xie Luo.
Out of compassion, grandma finally offered to adopt Xie Luo.
As soon as Xie Luo's mother got the custody, she couldn't wait to leave. Even though it was raining heavily outside, she was unwilling to stay and see her daughter and mother again.
The little girl still looked timid, but she collapsed the moment her mother left. She ran out to catch up with her mother, but was eventually pushed to the ground by her mother.
At that moment, grandma seemed to see herself.
She was also an outcast.
She was abandoned by her own daughter.
And Xie Luo also ran away, and the two of them... were abandoned.
Grandma brought Xie Luo back. She wiped the little girl's tears, changed her into new clothes, and comforted her with a stern face.
Grandma had been tough for most of her life, and she had long forgotten most of the words that belonged only to the gentle woman in her memory, and no amount of consolation had worked to any end.
Finally, the little girl seemed to finally feel her grandmother's kindness, and she cried and threw herself into her grandmother's arms.
