This summer is extremely hot, there are not many people on the road, and a few pedestrians are also in a hurry, wiping the sweat from their foreheads from time to time, trying to get out of the sun's rays as soon as possible.

One or two o'clock in the afternoon was the hottest time, and Wen Zheng walked out of the building with his things in his arms. He didn't have many things, and he packed them up very quickly, rushing back and forth when his grandfather was taking a nap.

The sun shone brightly on the ground, and you could feel the scorching temperature just by looking at it, but Wen Zheng felt that he was in a nightmare and felt cold from the bottom of his heart.

Outside the building, two young men and women ran in with lunch boxes in their hands.

The girl paused when she saw Wen Zheng, her face showed pity, and she said concernedly: "Wen Zheng, now that medicine is so advanced, there is still hope for Grandpa Wen's illness to be cured, so don't be too sad."

She was an intern who joined the company in the same batch as Wen Zheng. Seeing that the internship period was coming to an end, Wen Zheng would definitely be able to stay with her usual performance. Unexpectedly, Wen Zheng's grandfather had been diagnosed with lung cancer.

Wen Zheng submitted his resignation report two days ago, and today he came to the company to pack his things, his face was tired with naked eyes.

The girl sighed again, as if she felt sorry for what happened to her colleague.

Facing the girl's comfort, Wen Zheng just nodded slightly, then turned and left.

The boy walking with the girl curled his lips unhappily: "What kind of attitude!"

"His family is sick, so it's inevitable that he's in a bad mood." The girl said, her eyes still looking at Wen Zheng's back.

The boy was even more unhappy, especially when he thought of Wen Zheng's good looks, he couldn't help saying: "It sounds really filial to resign directly to take care of a sick grandfather. But there is no hope for the elderly to be cured of lung cancer. If I quit my job and spend all my savings on medical treatment, I guess I will only regret it."

"Wen Zheng is pitiful enough, what are you talking about. Moreover, Wen Zheng and his grandfather depend on each other for life, and their relationship is relatively deep. It is not difficult to understand such a choice."

As Wen Zheng walked further and further away, he gradually lost his voice to the two of them, but he didn't care about what the two of them were talking about.

For Wen Zheng, no matter whether his grandfather's illness can be cured or not, nothing is more important than being with him during this time.

It’s just that although my grandfather often smoked when he was young, in order to take care of him, he quit smoking many years ago. The annual health check-up only found some minor problems. Why did he suddenly find out about lung cancer.

Sitting blankly on the back seat of the taxi to let go of his thoughts, Wen Zheng hasn't eaten since morning, but now he doesn't feel any hunger.He just sat here, thinking about the condition of his grandfather as the doctor said, trying not to fall into a sad mood.

"The city hospital is here." The driver's voice sounded, Wen Zheng came to his senses, opened the car door, and walked to the inpatient department.

Recently, it seems that there is a period of high incidence of some kind of disease. Wen Zheng has been busy with his grandfather's affairs and has not paid attention to it.There are a lot of patients in the hospital. When Grandpa Wen was diagnosed, there were still vacant wards. Now all the wards in the city hospital are full. The nurses are very busy coming and going, and the corridors are full of family members who come to visit and accompany the patients.

Wen Zheng was dressed simply, and his hair looked a little messy, but his tall and straight figure and handsome appearance attracted a lot of attention.Taking a closer look, his eyes were a little dazed, and considering that he was in a hospital, he could probably guess what was going on.

Walking to the door of Grandpa Wen's ward, Wen Zheng put away the messy emotions in his heart and tried to look relaxed.

Opening the door, the gray-haired Grandpa Wen had already woken up from his afternoon nap, and was sitting on the hospital bed smiling and talking to the patient next to him. Although his face was a little yellow, he seemed in good spirits.

Grandpa Wen knew about his illness, but he never showed any signs of depression, and made the atmosphere of the entire ward relaxed and positive.

Seeing his grandson come back, Grandpa Wen waved happily: "Xiao Zheng is back!"

"Grandpa, what are you talking about so happily?" Wen Zheng held his grandpa's loose hand and tried to smile.

Grandpa Wen looked at Wen Zheng, he had grown up so much in a blink of an eye, he really couldn't bear it.

Grandpa Wen said to Wen Zheng: "Your grandfather has reached such an old age, and you are old enough to work, so there is nothing to worry about. In this life..."

"Master, I'm not married yet and have children, so how can I be considered grown up." Wen Zheng retorted immediately without waiting for Grandpa to finish speaking.

Grandpa Wen looked at his grandson, knew that he had left so early, and high school should have urged this kid to fall in love, but his great-grandson would not be able to see him, so he laughed and scolded: "It's not that you are dawdling. girlfriend."

"Okay, let grandpa finish." Wen grandpa pointed to the tourist attraction advertisement on TV, "my biggest regret in this life is that I haven't seen our country once in this life. This disease is already in its advanced stage. Your grandfather is too old to bear the torment, and his grandfather is unwilling to spend the last time in the hospital. Xiaozheng, I have saved a lot of private money over the years, please accompany my grandfather to have a good time."

Hearing this, Wen Zheng's heart tightened, his nose suddenly became sore, and tears appeared in his eyes uncontrollably.His lips kept opening and closing, but he couldn't make a sound. It took a long time before he yelled: "Grandfather..."

Wen Zheng lowered his head, venting his emotions to his heart's content.All these years, my grandfather raised me alone, and I hadn't been filial to my grandfather for a few years before I learned the bad news.There is nothing more tragic in life than a son who wants to support but does not wait for his relatives.

Grandpa Wen patted him on the back to make him stand up, handed his grandson a few pieces of paper, and said with a smile: "How old is he, no old man like me can take it easy, did you hear me about going on a trip?"

"I'm not as good as you, grandpa, but grandpa, our family still has a lot of savings. If you treat me well, you can stay with me for more than ten years."

"I have suffered a lot in my life. I am getting old and I don't want to bother."

Wen Zheng wiped away his tears, nodded and said, "Before, you were always asked to travel, and you only wanted to play in the province. Now we, grandpa and grandson, will go out together to see the world."

"Brother Wen is so free and easy!" The patient next to him sighed, saying that he is old, and who might not want to live.

"It's so hot now, it's a good time to go to the north to escape the summer heat."

"Last year my son took me to a summer resort..."

The people in the ward were chatting and laughing. It sounded lively and looked warm, but there was a slight sense of sadness.

The next morning, Wen Zheng went to help Grandpa Wen go through the discharge procedures, quickly packed up all his things, and took his grandpa home.

He didn't know whether this decision was right or wrong, but he couldn't refuse Grandpa's request.

Their home is in the urban area. They bought it with compensation money after Wen Zheng's parents passed away in a car accident. They bought three houses at the beginning, and the other two houses were large.

It was relatively early to buy a house at that time, and the price of the house has gradually increased over the years. Wen Zheng often praised his grandfather for his vision.

"Grandpa Wen and Xiaozheng are back. Your air conditioner was turned on for you half an hour ago. It's really hot now. Come in." The door of the house next door was half open, and someone came out when they heard the noise. Seeing that it was Wen Zheng and the others, they hurried out to help.

"Brother Nan, I'm going to trouble you again this time." Seeing Gu Nan helping his grandfather into the house, Wen Zheng went downstairs to get the rest of the things.

When Wen Zheng got home, Gu Nan had already left, and Grandpa Wen was half lying on the sofa watching TV, with a thin blanket covering his body.

Wen Zheng wiped the sweat off his forehead, walked under the air conditioner to feel the cool breeze, and listened to the sound of commercials coming from the TV.

"Don't stand on the air conditioner, it's easy to get sick when it's hot and cold." Grandpa Wen cared.

"It's really too hot. Today's outdoor temperature is probably almost [-] degrees Celsius." Wen Zheng obediently left the air conditioner and went to the bathroom to wash his face with warm water.

"This temperature is a bit evil." Grandpa Wen murmured, with a worried look on his face.After seeing a lot, I always have some premonitions, and this kind of weird weather really makes me feel uneasy.Looking at his young grandson, how could this make him go away with confidence.

"Gu Nan said let's have dinner at noon today, and today Lao Gu will cook in person." Grandpa Wen suddenly remembered and shouted quickly.

"Then we are lucky today." Gu Nan's grandfather's cooking skills are not ordinary.

The two families were originally neighbors. After Grandpa Gu and Grandpa Wen got acquainted, the two old men played together, and the two families became acquainted like this. Wen Zheng was also fortunate to often taste Grandpa Gu's handicrafts.

After all the heat from his body was driven away, Wen Zheng walked to the living room, was dragged by Grandpa Wen to the bedroom, and watched as his grandpa took out an iron box from the corner between the bed and the wall.

"Master, where did you get this thing?" Wen Zheng asked with his eyes wide open in surprise.

Grandpa Wen put the things back, Wen Zheng squatted beside the bed, searched everywhere, but couldn't find where the things were put.It wasn't until his grandfather reminded him that he squatted down to the same height as his grandfather, and then he realized something was wrong, but his hand was a bit too big and he couldn't reach it in at all.

Grandpa is also great at hiding things.

The iron box contained the family's real estate certificate and passbook. Grandpa Wen opened the passbook and handed it to Wen Zheng. There was quite a lot of money in it.Over the years, the grandfather and grandson have also spent a lot of money, and the money saved is hundreds of thousands. Grandpa is also a good saver.

"Is this enough money for a trip?"

"Your money is enough to go a dozen times."

"Then let's not save it, arrange it better, and I will enjoy it too, old man."

Wen Zheng put the passbook back into Grandpa's iron box, and held his hand to discuss softly: "Grandpa, you save this money first, this time you can enjoy the filial piety of your grandson, okay?"

Grandpa Wen knew that his grandson had done a lot of part-time jobs when he was in school these years, so he smiled wrinkled and nodded: "Okay."
