journey

Maybe it was because of the injury, or maybe it was because Zhuang Yi was keeping a close eye on him. Chu Zheng never mentioned the matter of seeking revenge from the sports team, so the matter was left alone. The scary injury on Chu Zheng's back was also caused by Zhuang Yi and Luo Nian. From applying the medicine on time, it gradually disappeared.Chen Shufen bought the same mobile phone for her two children, both of which are the latest models. Chu Zheng is not very fond of this, but he also thinks it is very convenient to have a mobile phone. Luo Nianli just feels very happy to have the same thing as his brother. , can't help but think of the coats of Chu Zheng and Zhuang Yi.The weather is getting colder, the end of the term is getting closer, and the end of the year is getting closer.Life is the same as before. Luo Nianli has really worked hard in studying. Every day when he returns home, he will bury his head in doing his homework, and then preview and review. He often goes to bed later than Chu Zheng, a junior high school student. Chu Zheng also admire him.

"Luo Luo, why are you studying so hard? You want to be admitted to Tsinghua University in the future."

Chu Zheng looked sideways at Luo Nianli with his head propped up in one hand, and asked while turning the pen in the other hand. Luo Nianli glanced at him and continued to write with his head down.

"Grandpa asked me to come to the city to study."

Chu Zheng looked down at the homework in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

"Ugh..."

Sighing, Chu Zheng got up and prepared to put some water.He closed the bedroom door and found that the living room was dark.It's strange, usually my parents are watching TV at this point.Chu Zheng walked slowly to the door of his parents' bedroom. The door was ajar and not closed. His parents were talking inside. He glanced at it, and when he turned to leave, he heard a sentence,

"Don't tell Luo Luo yet, let's talk about it after he finishes the exam and has a holiday."

Chu Zheng was stunned for a moment, then slowly backed away, his ear pressed against the crack of the door.

"Don't tell him. If you don't make it through, how should you tell him. Besides, the old man also wants to see Luo Luo at this time."

As the father said, bad thoughts flashed in Chu Zheng's mind. He opened the door and went in. Chu Jianguo and his wife were startled when they saw their son.

"Little brat, you don't know how to knock when you enter the door!"

Chu Jianguo said angrily.Chu Zheng sighed, his mother sat by the bed, Chu Zheng closed the door with his backhand, walked to his mother and sat down.

"Luo Luo's grandpa... isn't he very well?"

Chu Zheng asked his father, Chu Jianguo hesitated for a while, then looked at Chu Zheng's mother,

"Don't tell Luo Luo yet, your mother and I are thinking about how to tell him more appropriate."

"Is it very sick?"

Chu Zheng asked with a frown, and his father nodded.

"Cancer was detected when Luo Luo came here. He's getting older, and white-haired people send black-haired people. I'm afraid he won't survive the year."

After Chu Jianguo finished speaking, the whole family fell silent. There was only the dim light from the desk lamp in the bedroom, and Chen Shufen remained silent from the beginning to the end.

"It's better...tell him, Luo Luo has always been thinking about his grandfather, if it was me, if I missed this part, I would regret it for the rest of my life."

Chu Zheng looked down at the ground, and said to his parents sullenly.After a while of silence, Chu Jianguo stood up,

"Okay, what Zheng'er said is right, we have no right not to let Luo Luo know, Dad go and tell him, you stay in the house with your mother for a while."

After finishing speaking, Chu Jianguo walked out. Chu Zheng didn't know why, but felt a little flustered. He turned his head to look at his mother. Her mother lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. She felt Chu Zheng's gaze and raised her head. He reached out and touched his son's head,

"Oh... Mom's heart is sour. Luo Luo has experienced this at such a young age. Thinking about it, I feel bad."

Chu Zheng sat closer to his mother again, hugging his mother's shoulders, relatively speechless.

After a while, when Chu Zheng was about to get up to take a look, his father opened the door and came in.

"Dad, how is it? Is Luo Luo okay?"

His father sat down on the edge of the bed and sighed,

"No crying or fuss, just let me take him back to have a look. I promised him and went to bed. Go to bed quickly, and don't mention this to him again."

"Then, when will I go to see it? I'm going too!"

"What are you going to do? It's not to play."

"I'm going, I'm with him...he's crying, I can comfort him."

Chu Zheng's voice gradually quieted down, and he wasn't sure if he could comfort Luo Nianli, but he just wanted to be with him, look at him, and hug him when he cried.

"Zheng'er, don't go this time, the school still has classes. Ask Luo Luo for leave tomorrow, and ask your father to take him back to have a look. After you all finish the exam and have a holiday, our family will go to accompany him. His grandfather. Husband, what do you think?"

As Chen Shufen spoke, Chu Jianguo nodded,

"Okay, just do what your mother said first. You finish the class first, that's all, go to bed."

When Chu Zheng walked to the door of the bedroom, the feeling of panic became stronger. He didn't know how to talk to Luo Luo after entering, or go to bed directly.

"call..."

With a sigh of relief, Chu Zheng pushed the door open and went in.The light in the room was turned off, it was pitch black, the light coming in from the window fell on the bed, Luo Nianli obediently lay on his side on the bed with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.Chu Zheng knew that he must have not fallen asleep.Chu Zheng didn't want to disturb him, so he crept up the ladder and prepared to go to bed.

"elder brother."

As soon as Chu Zheng climbed up the ladder, Luo Nianli called him.

"Ok?"

Chu Zheng stood on the ladder and looked down at him.

"You sleep down there..."

Luo Nianli's voice was buzzing, half of his head was covered by the quilt.

"okay."

Chu Zheng jumped down without thinking, lifted Luo Nianli's quilt and got in.It was warm in the quilt. As soon as Chu Zheng lay down, Luo Nianli turned his head and hugged him. Chu Zheng immediately turned to face him. Luo Nianli took advantage of the situation and got into his arms, buried his head on his chest, Not moving at all, Chu Zheng patted him on the back lightly,

"Luo Luo, isn't this boring?"

Luo Nianli didn't reply, the night was very quiet.Just when Chu Zheng was about to fall asleep, the sobbing sound gradually became louder.Chu Zheng woke up in an instant, and the hand that had been patting turned into a caress, slowly stroking Luo Nianli's back.

"Will Grandpa die?"

The sound of Luo Nianli sobbing came from his arms, Chu Zheng froze for a moment, but did not reply.He didn't get the answer he wanted, so his sobbing became presumptuous, Luo Nianli couldn't hold it anymore, hugged Chu Zheng tightly and cried loudly.After all, Chen Shufen was worried, and when she reached the door of the bedroom, she heard Luo Nianli's cry. She quickly opened the door and went in. When she walked to the bedside, she saw Chu Zheng hugging Luo Nianli. called grandpa.

"Ouch, baby."

Chen Shufen leaned down and reached out to pat Luo Nianli's back, trying to hug him away.But Luo Nianli hugged Chu Zheng tightly, and Chu Zheng patted his fucking hand,

"Forget it, Mom, go back to sleep and let him cry."

Chen Shufen stood beside the bed for a while, then left with a sigh.Pushing open the door of his bedroom, he sat by the bed without saying a word. Chu Jianguo was leaning on the bedside to read a book, seeing his wife so depressed, so he got up and sat up, putting his arms around his wife's shoulders.Chen Shufen's tears fell drop by drop, and she began to sob slowly. Chu Jianguo didn't say anything, but patted her shoulder with his hand, and cried quietly with her.

Chu Zheng was silent for another day, and his soul would go out of his body from time to time.Zhuang Yi kept watching him, but he didn't feel anything.After school, Chu Zheng was expressionless like a puppet, he packed his schoolbag stupidly, got up to help Zhuang Yi.Zhuang Yi sat there, letting his arm be pulled by Chu Zheng, and he didn't get up. Chu Zheng didn't pull him, so he returned to look at him subconsciously.Zhuang Yi didn't speak, but his inquiring expression was clear at a glance.

"It's okay, just tired. Let's go."

Chu Zheng said very tiredly.How could it be okay on this abnormal day, but he didn't want to say it, Zhuang Yi never insisted on asking, he knew that sooner or later Chu Zheng would tell him.So he got up, picked up his schoolbag, and left with him.

In the morning, Chen Shufen took Luo Nian to leave the school and took a few days off with the teacher, and in the afternoon she sat on the train back to her hometown with Chu Jianguo.Luo Nianli didn't say a word for a day, his eyes were swollen like two big lanterns, Chu Jianguo almost laughed out of his low mood when he looked at the little one on the train.There were two other companions, one was Chu Jianguo, who always followed him wherever he went, and the other was Luo Nianli's father's former comrade-in-arms and close friend, who was also on that boat at the same time, and suffered Seriously injured, he changed his job after recovering from his injury and opened a snack bar by himself.That comrade-in-arms was just like Luo Nianli, he didn't say a word along the way, and his expression was very deep.

The train ran over the big passengers, and then took the car. It was dark before arriving at the small county where the hospital is located. Chu Jianguo and his party brought a lot of food and supplements. The troops here knew they were coming and sent people early. Waiting at the door of the hospital.After getting out of the car and seeing the building of the hospital, Luo Nianli trembled slightly. Chu Jianguo took his hand and walked to the ward with a few people, listening to them talking about Grandpa Luo Nianli's condition and even the aftermath. Things arranged, can't help sighing one after another.

Chu Jianguo gently pushed open the door of the ward, and Luo Nianli walked in, and saw his longing grandfather lying flat on the white hospital bed,

"Grandpa! Grandpa..."

Luo Nianli rushed over in an instant, lying on the side of his grandfather, crying,

Hearing the voice of his little grandson, the elderly grandfather slowly opened his eyes, looking for Luo Nianli.Luo Nianli felt his grandfather's arm moving under the quilt, so he raised his head quickly.Seeing the tears on Luo Nianli's red face, Grandpa slowly withdrew his hand from under the quilt and touched Luo Nianli's head tremblingly.

"Bao... Bao, Bao... is back."

Grandpa's voice was very weak, and his bony hands were trembling all the time. When he was leaving, grandpa was still standing at the entrance of the village to see him off, but it became like this in just a few months. Luo Nianli felt as if his heart had been torn apart, and he was so sad that he couldn't control it. Own.

"Grandpa... woo... What's wrong with you, Grandpa."

Grandpa's hand touched Luo Nianli's head over and over again, and his face was full of tears.Chu Jianguo walked over to hold the other hand of the old man,

"Old man, I'm Chu Jianguo, the person in charge directly under Luo Yong, and I'm also raising Luo Luo now. How are you feeling?"

Grandpa looked at Chu Jianguo slowly, and slowly stretched out the hand that was touching Luo Luo towards him. Seeing this, Chu Jianguo quickly took the old man's hand, holding him tremblingly.

"Leader...leader, thank you...thank you."

"It's us who should say thank you. Luo Yong is a good comrade and a hero of the country."

Hearing his son's name, grandpa closed his eyes, and tears kept falling down one by one.Luo Nianli felt very sad when he heard his father's name. In fact, he gradually understood that his father had left this world and would not come back, and so was his mother who had never met. He was left alone.Luo Nianli buried his face in the quilt on his grandfather's chest, weeping uncontrollably.

Chu Jianguo spoke a few words with the old man, seeing that he was not in a good state of mind, so he didn't talk to him too much, and went out to buy some food with a few people around him, and left Luo Nianli here to talk to his grandfather .

"Baby, in the city... how is it? Are you full?"

Luo Nianli nodded with a sob.

"Okay, grandpa. I eat well. My uncle, aunt and brother take care of me. I also went to school and learned to write."

"Oh... that's good. Treasure can write, that's great... that's great."

Luo Nianli buried his head in his grandfather's arms and arched,

"Grandpa, I miss you, Grandpa, get well soon."

Grandpa stroked Luo Nianli's head over and over again, feeling like he couldn't get enough of it, his precious grandson, the person he cared about the most.

"Baby, get up and let grandpa see."

Grandpa tremblingly supported Luo Nianli, and Luo Nianli sat on the hospital bed and looked at his grandfather.Although the little grandson didn't gain much weight, he was living a much better life than following himself in the village.But in Luo Nianli's eyes, Grandpa couldn't be worse.Grandpa lost a lot of weight, his eyes were not bright due to the pain, his speech became difficult, his hands trembled constantly, Luo Nianli couldn't stop his tears every time he saw him.

"Grandpa, have you taken your medicine? Why are you so sick? When I left, didn't you say you were well..."

Grandpa patted Luo Nianli's little hand and tried to smile.

"It's okay...Grandpa is old. Look at the grandpas in the village, they are all like this when they are old."

Luo Nianli stepped forward and hugged Grandpa's neck, pressing his face against Grandpa's,

"I don't want Grandpa to grow old."

He couldn't help crying again.Grandpa patted his little grandson on the back,

"Baby, you have to be obedient, study hard, and earn a lot of money in the future. Grandpa is waiting for that day."

Luo Nianli nodded with tears.
