Chapter 239 The Impermanence of Life
"Sister, Gu Yunlang told you not to worry, if everything goes well, it will be over in two days..."

Looking at Tao Shuyou, who was frowning and looking sad, Zhang Ming couldn't say anything to comfort her.

After hanging up the phone that still couldn't get through, Tao Shuyou hesitated for a moment, and directly booked a ticket to Qin Province.

At this moment, Mr. He, who was in charge of this celebration, came over with a happy face.

Today's event can be said to be successfully concluded, and Teacher He's credit will naturally not escape.

"Why are you here? Today's event is over. Let's have a meal to celebrate tonight. It's your teacher and classmates..."

Tao Shu was particularly embarrassed: "Mr. He, something happened to my boyfriend's house, and I have to go there immediately." '

"Your boyfriend? Isn't his family in Qin Province?"

Seeing Tao Shuyou nodded, Teacher He was even more puzzled: "How do you get there in Qin Province?"

Tao Shuyou didn't bother to explain, and after a few casual sentences, she took the umbrella Xia Heyu handed over and left with a serious expression on her face.

Looking at the pale door of the ward in front of him, Gu Yunlang hesitated rarely.

Gu Yuntao on the side had messy hair, looked at his younger brother's expression, and sighed silently, Guo Tao stood where he was, and Gu's father and mother on the side also looked at Gu Yunlang's back with complicated expressions.

"Let's go in, it can be regarded as...to see the old man for the last time, to fulfill his dying wish...there said that he can only park for a while, and will take him away..."

Gu Xianzao leaned against Gu Yuntao's leg, she was still very unfamiliar with death when she was young, she just wondered why her grandpa didn't come home during this time.

At the same time, I also wonder why the family members are bored these days, especially today...

Looking at the little dad who was thinking about him, Gu Xianzao was a little afraid to go forward.

She had never seen her little dad show such an expression.

Is he sad, or a little uncomfortable?

For some reason, seeing Gu Yunlang's expression made her feel uncomfortable.

Seeing Gu Yunlang push open the door resolutely, Gu Yuntao subconsciously stroked his daughter's head, Li Lan's eyes were red, and Gu Yunlang's aunt and sister-in-law were comforting the weak grandma. At the door, the atmosphere was a little dignified.

Gu Yunlang pushed open the door, the nurse in the room looked at Gu Yunlang with red eyes, wanted to ask some basic information, hesitated for a moment, shook his head and sighed slowly

"Hurry up, the old man will be sent away soon!"

After finishing speaking, he left the room, leaving Gu Yunlang alone.

Gu Yunlang came to the stretcher with heavy steps, trembling and lifted the white cloth on the bed, a pale white suddenly rushed into his field of vision.

With the white cloth lifted, grandpa's peaceful appearance was revealed.

With his eyes tightly closed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he looked a little... kind?

It was the first time for Gu Yunlang to look at his grandfather's face so carefully.

He has never looked at other people's faces so carefully, even when looking at himself in the mirror.

Looking at his grandfather lying quietly on the bed, Gu Yunlang's heart was not as painful as he imagined.

That feeling is very subtle.

Some loss, some sadness and regret, but more, still the feeling of loss.

Life is impermanent, the last time grandpa talked and laughed under the locust tree is still vivid in my memory, and the next time I meet, it is already separated by yin and yang.

Gu Yunlang's grandfather is Gu Heng. He has been a farmer all his life, and he has spent his whole life in the fields and farming in the mountains.He can't be a scholar, and he doesn't have a great manager. In his words, the greatest achievement in his life is to raise Dad Gu and his four siblings.

It's a pity that this old man, who was very remarkable in Gu Yunlang's eyes, ushered in the end of his life at noon today.

The grandfather and grandson died without seeing each other. Thinking of this, Gu Yunlang's heart ached.

Ten minutes later, Gu Yunlang walked out the door with his eyes lowered, and the family members around the door greeted him instantly.

Gu Yunlang's eyes followed the crowd and found the grandma leaning on Li Lan's body. The old man who always had a smile in the past had frailty written all over his face, and his feet seemed to be several years old.

Gu Yunlang swallowed hard, and said in a hoarse voice, "Go back, let's go back."

The rain stretched from Yunnan Province to Qin Province, and even after returning to Liuyunba, the fine raindrops never stopped.

Gu Yunlang and Guo Tao sat in the back seat of Gu Yuntao's car. Gu Yunlang stared out the window in a daze. When the car passed the town, passed the road around Liuyunba, and passed the tree in the middle of the village standing in the rain. When the locust tree was growing, Gu Yunlang's eyes trembled slightly.

The car drove slowly into the village and came to the yard.

Gu Hua and some relatives in the village who got the news came to the yard ahead of time.

Seeing Gu Yunlang who got off the car, Gu Hua, Chen Wenkang and others walked up quickly
"Yun Lang, my condolences..."

Gu Hua patted Gu Yunlang on the shoulder, and quickly called his relatives to help.

The custom in Liuyunba is that when there are weddings and ceremonies in the family, especially funerals, a person who is in charge of the affairs is usually hired, which is called a "customer department", to take care of various matters for the grieving family members.

The news of the Gu family's old man's illness spread quickly throughout Liuyunba, and people from the neighborhood came to visit from time to time. At the same time, the Gu family passed through the initial stage of grief and began to notify relatives to prepare for the funeral.

The family members were busy greeting, so Gu Yunlang took a break and came to the yard, accompanied by Guo Tao who never left, perhaps because he was shrouded in an invisible sad atmosphere, Guo Tao was also in a very heavy mood.

"Guo Zi, I'm sorry to trouble you, I ran so far..."

"Don't say that..."

Gu Yunlang leaned on the fence, fine raindrops stretched across the sky, and the fog gradually rose under the dark sky.

Gu Yunlang lit a cigarette, and the flickering smoke enveloped his face.

Looking at this familiar courtyard, the indescribable emptiness in his heart enveloped him.

Thinking of his bizarre manager, Gu Yunlang felt uncomfortable and wanted to find something to say

"Do you believe there is a god in this world?"

Guo Tao turned around and glanced at Gu Yunlang, but didn't make a sound.As if he didn't intend to get an answer from Guo Tao, Gu Yunlang took a breath and murmured
"If there is a god, it must not be a humanoid creature"

"Rather, time and reality."

"Serious, objective, with the same benevolence and strictness to human beings and all things."

Gu Yunlang's ethereal voice stopped, and Guo Tao seemed to be able to hear his own breathing.

He didn't know why Gu Yunlang suddenly said such strange words, but he could feel the distress in Gu Yunlang's heart.

He opened his mouth, but the words in his mouth were suddenly interrupted by the ringing of the phone.

"Zhang Ming?"

"What? Didn't you receive a call?" Guo Tao subconsciously glanced at Gu Yunlang, then nodded
"Okay, I'll ask him!"

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone and said to Gu Yunlang who was puzzled
"Sister Tao also came to Qin Province. She said she was coming after the activities in the afternoon. Did you know?"

Gu Yunlang shook his head, looked at the twilight sky, took a deep breath of the cigarette in his mouth and threw it away, then gathered his coat, turned and said

"Then I'll go pick her up now, girl..."
