From abandoned baby to CEO

Chapter 40 Bad news

"Grandpa, you're awake!"

Seeing that Old Man Sun was awake, Sun Xue's happy eyes shone with tears.

"Xue'er, grandpa thought he would never see you again!"

Old Man Sun cried with joy, his lips trembling.

"The patient's family can now help the patient wash his face and wipe his body." The nurse said to Sun Jianjun and Sun Xue who came through the door.

Sun Xue fetched hot water from the water room and used a hot water towel to carefully wipe the blood on Old Man Sun's face. There was a lot of blood on Old Man Sun's head, his hair was stuck together with blood, and his face was covered with blood scabs. There was a lot of blood on the legs and feet, and even the clothes were covered in blood.

When Sun Xue unbuttoned Old Man Sun's clothes and prepared to wipe the blood on him, Sun Xue's eyes suddenly blurred. Is this my grandfather? He was as skinny as a stick, with no extra flesh on his body, and his ribs were clearly visible.

Why! I don’t know how much hardship Grandpa has endured for this family? How much have you suffered?

Sun Xue shed tears while wiping away. She felt terribly uncomfortable when she saw her grandfather's emaciated appearance.

The doctor said that Old Man Sun's right leg had been pressed by the donkey cart for too long, and the nerves had become necrotic. This leg may lose the ability to walk in the future. Fortunately, Old Man Sun's skull was not injured. His head was only bruised and he bled a lot. If there is intracranial bleeding, Old Man Sun may become a vegetative state.

After cleaning Old Man Sun's body, Sun Xue sat by the bed and fed Old Man Sun porridge. This is the first time Sun Xue has taken care of his grandfather and fed him personally. Sun Xue recalled the scene when her grandfather fed her when she was a child. Sun Xue was fed by her grandfather one bite at a time. Apart from her grandfather, no other person had ever fed Sun Xue. Looking at the grandfather in front of her, Sun Xue was filled with emotion.

It's not easy for me to grow up, and it's not easy for my grandfather to do it for me. In this life, no matter where she went, the person she couldn't let go of the most and cared about the most was her grandfather.

In the afternoon, old man Sun fell asleep. Sun Jianjun called Sun Xue to the bench outside the ward, took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to Sun Xue and said:

"Sun Xue, you use this money as living expenses."

"Uncle Jianjun, I have money, I don't want it."

Jianjun forced it on Sun Xue, but Sun Xue didn't take it in the end. Sun Xue knew in her heart that all the expenses for her grandfather's hospitalization were paid for by Uncle Jianjun in advance, and she could no longer trouble Uncle Jianjun with such a trivial matter.

"Sun Xue, your master is awake. You will go to school tomorrow. I am here, so you can study at school with peace of mind."

"Uncle Jianjun, I...I don't want to study anymore. Grandpa is like this now. I want to stay at home and take care of him."

Sun Xue thought a lot last night. Grandpa now needs someone to take care of him, and his younger brother at home also needs someone to take care of him. At this time, the family can only count on himself to shoulder this burden.

"Sun Xue, what are you talking nonsense about? Listen to your uncle and study hard. You don't have to worry about things at home. I'm taking care of your father in the hospital, and your aunt can take care of your mother and your brother when she has time, so you can rest assured."

Sun Jianjun had already guessed Sun Xue's thoughts, and he knew that Sun Xue was worried about these things.

"Uncle Jianjun...this..."

Sun Xue looked at Sun Jianjun with gratitude.

"Okay, you don't have to worry so much about being a child and just read your book carefully."

Sun Xue didn't know how to thank Uncle Jianjun. Every time the family had difficulties, it was Uncle Jianjun who helped them tide over the difficulties. In Sun Xue's heart, Uncle Jianjun is not a relative but is better than a relative.

In the afternoon, Sun Jianjun took time to drive Sun Xue to school.

Sun Jianjun also called Sun Pengfei to his side and whispered something in Sun Pengfei's ear before leaving the school.

The next day, Sun Xue found her class teacher, Teacher Han. She made a request to Teacher Han, that is, if she could not study in the evening. She wanted to go home after school every day.

Teacher Han was very puzzled when he heard this request made by Sun Xue. He knew that Sun Xue's home was dozens of miles away from the school, and it would be very hard to go home for several hours every day.

"Why do you have such an idea? Sun Xue." Teacher Han asked doubtfully.

"My grandpa is sick and there is no one to take care of him."

"Oh! Where are your parents? Why don't they take care of you?"

"I...my parents are working out of town." Sun Xue lied to Teacher Han, her face turned red.

"Oh! That's it..."

Teacher Han pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement with Sun Xue's request. He told Sun Xue to pay attention to safety on the road. He is not worried about Sun Xue's study. Night self-study is mainly about homework. For students like Sun Xue, writing at home and writing at school are almost the same. He just feels a little sorry for Sun Xue. It is really not easy to run around for two hours every day.

Sun Xue also made this decision out of necessity. If she doesn't study in the evening, she can help the family with some housework and take care of her younger brother and grandma. More importantly, you can save part of the accommodation and living expenses.

After school the next day, Sun Xue hurriedly packed her schoolbag and hurried home. She calculated that if she didn't delay on the way, she could get home before dark.

I used to ride Sun Pengfei's bicycle, but now it's really tiring to walk alone. Sun Xue was already out of breath from exhaustion after walking less than half the distance.

The road home is mostly mountainous and winding. It is said that the mountain road has eighteen bends. This is true. It seems that the goal is ahead, but as you start walking, it will feel further and further away.

Sun Xueyuan planned an hour's journey, but when she got home, it took her a full two hours.

Grandma was a little surprised by Sun Xue's sudden return. Sun Xue told her grandma that she would go home every day from now on. She also told her grandma that she had gone to the hospital and that her grandfather had no major problems, so she asked her grandma not to worry.

Although grandma can't see, she understands everything in her heart. She knows that Sun Xue chooses to go home every day to take care of the family.

After Sun Xue got home, she couldn't care less about her physical fatigue. She dropped her schoolbag and started to work, feeding chickens and donkeys, carrying water for cooking...

After eating and washing, I hurriedly started doing homework. After finishing my homework and settling down my brother, I went to bed with peace of mind.

Sun Xue got up before dawn the next day. She had to start early.

As soon as she walked out of the door, Sun Xue was dumbfounded. Unexpectedly, it was raining lightly outside.

There was no raincoat at home, so Sun Xue found a piece of plastic and put it on his body and rushed into the rain.

Along the way, the rain not only did not stop, but became heavier and heavier, and the road under Sun Xue's feet became increasingly difficult to walk. The mountain road is full of dirt, and it turns into a dirt road when it rains. Her shoes were soaked in rainwater, and the plastic sheet covering her body couldn't withstand the rain at all. Halfway through, her lower body was soaked by the rainwater. Sun Xue couldn't care so much anymore, gritted her teeth and braved the rain to move forward. She wanted to get to school as soon as possible and she didn't want to be late walking to school on her first day.
