Chapter 26 Tomb Sweeping

Xie Jintian was discharged from the hospital two days later, and the subsequent re-examination also showed that there was no serious problem. The battery car that caused the accident was not registered, so he couldn't find it at all, so he had to admit it.As for Xia Xue's father, although he saved his life this time, he suffered from sequelae of hemiplegia after waking up, and needed to be transferred to the hospital for rehabilitation treatment. Xie Jintian entrusted his relationship to let the old man live in their hospital, so that it would be convenient to take care of him.

After a week of rest and going to work, the first thing Xie Jintian, who is on crutches, has to face is Yi Yang's absence.They are clearly still in the same hospital, but they are separated by a building like a whole Milky Way, and they only meet each other occasionally in the cafeteria at noon or during the opening of the hospital, and there is no chance to talk to each other.

On this day, by chance, Zheng Xin, the aunt who learned about the "flying accident" from Xia Xue a few days ago, called and scolded Xie Jintian for trying to hide the truth, and then said that she would return to the United States the day after tomorrow. So he came to visit him and Xia Xue's father, but also promised Xie Jintian not to tell his mother Zheng Qiao about this for the time being.

The next day, Zheng Xin drove to Xie Jintian early in the morning, saw the injuries on his forehead and cheekbones, and then glanced at his crutches: "I have to go to the temple to pay my respects!"

"You are still superstitious even if you are married to the Lighthouse Country?"

Zheng Xin rolled her eyes: "I'm not a banana person."

After joking for a while, the two went to see Xia Xue's father Xia Feng together.Xia Feng has been here for the past few days, and he has been able to control his bowel movements. This is a huge improvement for him who is very concerned about face, so his mood has improved a lot. I am very happy to see Zheng Xin who is eloquent and well-informed. We chatted for a while before stopping.

We went to have dinner near the hospital together at noon, Xie Jintian couldn't help but said: "Auntie, you have a great mouth!"

"What's so great about it? I'm just straight-hearted." Zheng Xin shrugged, "If you say something without thinking about it, you'll understand what you're thinking."

Xie Jintian was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of what he didn't say when Yi Yang took care of him that day, even a word of thanks seemed extremely difficult, maybe it was because there were too many worries?

"Auntie, there is something I hope you must tell me the truth." Thinking of Yi Yang, Xie Jintian remembered another thing that has always troubled him, "Why did my mother react so strongly when she saw the photo that day, and said that Yi Yang's family Are they not good things?"

Zheng Xin seemed to have expected that Xie Jintian would ask this, put down the knife and fork and took a sip of water: "It's all the grievances of the previous generation, do you really want to know?"

Xie Jintian nodded.

Zheng Xin pondered for a moment, and finally said carefully: "You know, Yi Yang's mother was very beautiful when she was young, and most beautiful women are not willing to be ordinary..."

After hearing the opening remarks, Xie Jintian had a bad feeling, but as expected, what Zheng Xin said later made him unbelievable.

"You and Yi Yang got close when you were young, and the two families naturally got closer, but we didn't expect that Wu Zhaodi would have other thoughts about your father."

These words were like a thunderbolt, which caught Xie Jintian off guard.But recalling carefully, Wu Zhaodi was indeed always too attentive to his father, and even flattered him, but Wu Zhaodi was very indifferent to her hard-working husband, and didn't care much about Yi Yang's affairs. When I was a child, the parent meetings were basically attended by Yi Yang's father.

"The Dongchuang incident happened because she copied a few lines of poems on the back of our family portrait..." Zheng Xin sighed deeply, "She intended to show it to your father, but it was a pity that my sister caught it right away. My sister That violent temper immediately confronted her at the door. She was timid, hiding and refusing to come out, and it was Yi Yang's father who came forward to calm things down..."

"When did this happen? Why do I have no memory at all?" Xie Jintian searched his stomach but couldn't find any clues about these things.

"You were at school, how did you know?" Zheng Xin's expression became guilty, "Yi Yang's father had an accident that night..."

Xie Jintian couldn't get back to his senses after hearing this for a long time. He always thought that the death of Yi Yang's father was an accident, but Zheng Xin's words made him wonder whether Yi Yang's father died because of his wife's infidelity. When he was distracted during the night shift, he made an operation error and was seriously injured by the machine. After a week of procrastination, he passed away.It's no wonder that Zheng Qiao used "bad luck" as an excuse to not let him go to Yi Yang's house, presumably because he was afraid that he would know that it was involved.

What about Yi Yang?Does Yi Yang know all this?Is there also a reason for his estrangement with Wu Zhaodi?Does he also hate what Xie Jintian's mother did?

For so many years, Yi Yang has never mentioned it, and Xie Jintian has never asked with peace of mind.

He remembered the last time he was in the hospital, and Yi Yang asked him if he only remembered these?

Is there anything else that he should have remembered but forgot, in order to escape part of the guilt that should have been borne by him?

"To be honest, I'm really relieved that I didn't meet that child in the hospital today." Zheng Xin clasped his fingers, as if pinching her guilt that had fermented for many years, "I've been afraid of seeing him again for so many years. It would be better if he pointed at my nose and scolded me... But that child is too sensible and depressed... I tell you this, not to ask you to hold anyone accountable, but I hope that you, as a member of the Xie family, can help you to some extent. Let's pay back some sins... After all, what he lost is something we can't make up for."

On the day of the winter solstice, Yi Yang, who had asked for leave early, went out with a white chrysanthemum in his bag, and unexpectedly saw Xie Jintian leaning against the car door.

Xie Jintian knew that Yi Yang would go to the tomb-sweeping alone on this day. In the past, he accompanied Yi Yang to visit several times when he was free, but he never felt any sadness.After all, Yi Yang's father had passed away for many years, and the impression he left in Xie Jintian's memory was that he was honest and reticent, and they didn't even exchange a few words.But every time I saw Yi Yang's expression looking at the tombstone and the way he paid homage slowly, for some reason, I would feel sad for some reason.

"No problem with your feet?" Yi Yang, who was forcefully asked to get in the car, subconsciously glanced at Xie Jintian's ankle.

"You don't need your left foot to drive." Xie Jintian tugged on Yi Yang's seat belt to make sure he was fastened, and then started the car, "It's much better, just walk slowly."

Yi Yang glanced at Xie Jintian's retracted hand. In the past, he always felt that this gesture carried a sense of concern. It wasn't until he sat in the back row and saw Xie Jintian caring for Xia Xue in the same way that he realized that it was just a polite habits.Such misunderstandings are so numerous in their relationship that Yi Yang always warns himself not to be sentimental easily.

Just like today, Xie Jintian may have come to pick him up to visit his grave just out of gratitude for taking care of him last time.It has nothing to do with the past, nothing to do with the future, it is only related to Xie Jintian's self-satisfaction needs - if you pay off this love, you can be less involved.In this case, Yi Yang has nothing to shirk, he is willing to give Xie Jintian such a chance, and let himself be relieved earlier.

The highway was very congested, and along the way, Xie Jintian was looking for some seemingly random topics to avoid the embarrassment of being silent.Yi Yang followed him, chatting about unimportant things with one question and one answer, but he faintly sensed Xie Jintian's uneasiness, or nervousness.

When he arrived at the cemetery, Xie Jintian suddenly felt that Yi Yang, who was walking alone with a bouquet of flowers against the crowd, was like a ghost who was ignored by others when he saw the big family members who came to pay homage to the deceased.

Xie Jintian has never been able to describe what is missing from Yi Yang all these years, until now he realizes that Yi Yang is so lifeless.The death of his father seemed to take away all his longing for life overnight, leaving only an empty shell, moving step by step in the trajectory of life.

Xie Jintian suddenly couldn't bear to see such a scene, he chased after Yi Yang, walked beside Yi Yang, and asked casually, "Is Aunt Wu coming in Qingming?"

Yi Yang walked without looking sideways: "She won't come."

Only then did Xie Jintian realize that he had asked the wrong question.Maybe Wu Zhaodi has never been here?As the murderer who indirectly killed her husband, she was ashamed to come, or she didn't even bother to come.

If you think a little before saying this, you will know it is inappropriate.But at that moment just now, he always felt that he had to say something in order to pull Yi Yang back from another world that no one else could see.It feels subtle, but after the subtlety comes endless embarrassment.

The two didn't talk again until they reached Yi Yang's father's grave.

Xie Jintian helped Yi Yang spread out the things, brazier, paper money, ingot paper, incense...

Yi Yang put the flowers in front of the tomb, took a piece of cloth and carefully wiped the tombstone, and then stroked the black and white photo of his father.

His fingertips were cold, and the tombstone was also cold. Looking at this scene, Xie Jintian felt his heart sink into the still years.

The swaying flames devoured the dazzling false gold and silver. Xie Jintian accompanied him, squatting until his legs were numb, and suddenly he heard Yi Yang say: "I often think, if I have to take the life of a close relative, Why not her?"

Xie Jintian was stunned, and looked up at Yi Yang, but saw that he continued to move his hands expressionlessly, as if it was just talking to himself.

"I blame myself, because of this thought, but I can't control it, especially later, when she beat me and even scolded my father...he has already gone..."

The flames were blown up by the wind, and quickly suppressed by a dozen paper money.

"I hated my dad too, because death means abandonment forever... He is for such a person who doesn't care about him at all..." Yi Yang's words fluttered with the wind blowing away the ashes, "He He built such a big bookcase for me, and hoped that I would study hard and not be a worker like him. But even if I fulfill all his wishes, he will never come back."

It was the first time for Xie Jintian to hear Yi Yang open up and say these words to him.And these words are many, many years late...

Yi Yang's eyes were still clear, and there was no sign of tears at all, but it was this nonchalant appearance that made Xie Jintian feel even more shocking.

Too many emotions accumulated in the years were awakened, scrambling to burst out from his chest and eyes, so that he didn't know what expression to use to face Yi Yang.And Yi Yang didn't seem to need his answer. When everything was over, he packed his things quietly, stood up slowly while supporting the tree beside him, and then left without looking back.

Xie Jintian suddenly wanted to call Yi Yang to stop, and told him that he already knew the truth back then, and he felt sorry for what his mother did, as well as his own hindsight.

He wanted to ask Yi Yang, why he didn't say these things to him earlier, so that their relationship might not go to where it is today.

He also wanted to know what the words he said in the hospital meant, what did he forget, and what should he remember?

If he could know everything without hypnosis, if he could go back to the past without hypnosis, he would rather take a detour than choose to hurt him like that.

Many words came to his lips, but in the end, he just chased after him and grabbed Yi Yang's wrist tightly.
