reborn as husband and wife
Chapter 81
He Chenxu could only feel that every joint in his hand was trembling. This is his dearest grandfather. He was lying on the bed and haggarded like this at this moment, as if he would disappear in the next moment.
The old man's thin body was curled up under the quilt, seeing his grandson approaching, he struggled to get up and take a good look at his beloved grandson, knowing that his time had come, he called feebly, "Chenxu Qingqi, you are here. "
He Chenxu choked up and nodded, grabbing the old man's old hand and trembling, "Grandpa—"
Su Qingqi sniffed, and lowered his head to test the corners of his eyes. The life that is about to end for an old man in his dying years makes people feel emotional.
"Wanrong, you go out first." The old man forced himself to say such a sentence, panting and coughing heavily, "cough cough..."
How high-spirited the silver-haired old lady was before, but now she is just an ordinary woman facing her husband's departure irretrievably. Her exquisite makeup can no longer conceal her sadness. Tears slowly slid down the corners of her eyes. She whispered softly sobbed and left.
Su Qingqi looked at the old man eagerly, and almost blurted out the words that he wanted to use blood to prolong the old man's life. At that moment, the old man took a deep look at him, and said slowly and feebly, "Qingqi, be filial to your children, life and death have their own destiny , Keke, I should be relieved too."
After finishing speaking, his cloudy eyes became preoccupied, as if recalling his whole life. Gradually, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, two lines of tears fell, and he shook He Chenxu's hand tightly, "Chenxu , Grandpa wants to ask you to do something before he dies, read, just write it in a letter under the pillow, grandpa hopes, cough cough. Can you help grandpa fulfill this last wish, okay?"
He Chenxu nodded heavily, with a strong cry, "Yes, Grandpa, Chenxu will definitely help you." He said and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. The man did not flick his tears lightly, but he did not reach the point of sadness.
"Okay, okay, okay." After saying three "good" words in a row, his voice gradually weakened, and his arms softened in an instant. The old man closed his eyes forever, left them forever, and never return--
"Grandpa——" He Chenxu yelled, tears came out of his eyes, he hugged the old man's arms and wept softly, like a child crying bitterly, he knelt down beside the bed, buried his head deeply on the old man's chest, Trying to suppress the heart-wrenching pain and sorrow.
Su Qingqi also knelt down and stayed by He Chenxu's side, facing the pain of the loss of his loved ones with him. He was not good at words and could not say anything to comfort him. He only hoped that Chenxu would be strong.
News of the old man's death quickly spread throughout the He family's old house, and the uncles also rushed back to the old house. For a while, the He family's old house was immersed in sorrow, depressing and solemn, and no one dared to speak.
On the night the old man died, the old lady was persuaded to sleep in the side courtyard, and the other relatives also went back to rest. Only He Chenxu stayed in the old man's room to guard. There were no candles in the room, and it was pitch black with death The same silence, the old man left and only the dead body remained, He Chenxu knelt in front of the bed, spending the last night with the old man.
Su Qingqi just stayed behind He Chenxu without making any movement. Looking at the man's lonely and painful back, his heart also ached. During the period, he went out and made a bowl of hot soup and brought it to him. He comforted him with a warm voice. .
In the middle of the night, He Chenxu finally hugged Su Qingqi and cried bitterly. This time, he did not suppress or scruple, and cried aloud. He hugged the person in his arms tightly, and the overwhelming sorrow and pain pressed hard on his chest. Breathe, the whole world is just like the room they are in now, dark and cold and terrifying, Su Qingqi is his savior, that ray of bright sunshine, he struggled with all his strength in pain.
Su Qingqi, who was hugged by He Chenxu, was in pain. His whole body seemed to be embedded in his body. It was very difficult for him to breathe, but he knew that the man was sad and scared now. This was He Chenxu he had never seen before. He was being tortured, he was suffering, and he was struggling. Su Qingqi patted He Chenxu's back to comfort him and give him strength.
It was dawn, and the two men hugging each other were awakened by the first ray of sunlight coming in from the window. Su Qingqi opened his eyes first, and looked at He Chenxu, who was buried in his shoulders, sleeping peacefully, and his heart skipped a beat. He called softly, "Chen Xu."
He Chenxu slowly opened his eyes and saw clearly the person in front of him, it was Qing Qi, he tried his best to smile, "It's dawn."
According to local customs, the deceased was buried three days after his death, and He Chenxu left. Su Qingqi knew that he had fulfilled his promise to the old man, and various unbearable rumors began to spread in the market. Su Qingqi came to accompany He Chenxu as his official wife. Relatives and friends pay filial piety. During the day, they accompany a group of weeping men and women kneeling in front of the old man’s coffin, helping to greet relatives and friends who came from afar. At night, they deal with various business matters. Xiao Shitou also knows that his father has important matters. He didn't bother to make trouble anymore, which also saved Su Qingqi from his busy schedule.
On the night of the third day, just as Su Qingqi was resting in bed with his eyes closed, he heard a knock on the door. He went to open the door suspiciously, only to see a servant leading a dusty man over behind him. Candles welcomed people into the back room, Su Qingqi looked at this unfamiliar face and asked, "Who are you?"
"Back to Master Su, the younger one is a courier from Tongcheng, who was entrusted by Hongzi, the steward next to He Ershao, to bring back something." Then, the man took out an exquisite wooden box from the bag and handed it over, and continued Said, "Hongzi's manager also sent a message to the little one. On the way back, Young Master He was seriously injured by gangsters, and he is staying in Tongcheng to recuperate. Please, Young Master Su will replace Young Master He for the funeral for the old man. Remember to put this wooden box in the The old man will be buried together in the coffin, don't worry about it, and he will leave when the second young master is in good health."
Su Qingqi froze, with a serious expression on his face, looked at the messenger and asked word by word, "Is he seriously injured?"
The messenger lowered his head under Su Qingqi's serious and heavy aura, and replied a little vaguely, "When I left, Young Master He was in a coma. The doctor has seen it. After resting for four or five days, he will recover. Question , er, not much."
Su Qingqi narrowed his eyes, grasped the hem of the clothes tightly with his hands and took a deep breath to calm himself down, "Okay, I see, you go back."
"Leave, villain." The messenger made a bow, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and retreated.
Tomorrow is the day of the old man's burial, but Chen Xu was seriously injured in a different place and couldn't go home. Su Qingqi lay on the bed and guessed countless possibilities. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Who harmed Chen Xu at this juncture?If Su Qingqi knew about it, he would have to pay a heavy price.
Su Qingqi rushed back to the old house early in the morning of the second day, and put the wooden box into the old man's coffin according to He Chenxu's instructions. The coffin was covered inch by inch in the soil, the tombstone was erected, everyone wailed, the old lady fainted from grief and was sent home, and some relatives began to complain that the second young master of the He family was not filial and so on, suppressing the darkness day is in progress.
On the second day after the old man was buried, Su Qingqi had already decided to go to Tongzhou to look for He Chenxu. While he was packing his luggage, someone from the restaurant came and said that there was trouble in the restaurant. He was still a wealthy landlord with a reputation. Some people blocked the entrance of the restaurant to prevent people from entering, and some even rushed into the restaurant to threaten the guests and drive them away, shouting that there was something wrong with the food here, and insisted on asking Su Qingqi to come out and explain.
Su Qingqi had no choice but to put down the things in his hand and rush to the restaurant. There were indeed a lot of people watching at the entrance of the restaurant, and a few tall and burly people outside blocked the entrance, and shouted at the crowd watching outside, "Everyone, take a look, this cloud The owner of Xi Restaurant dare not come out to clarify the facts, he is hiding at home! You guys, you should come here to eat less in the future, it’s not worth taking someone’s life carelessly, don’t you think so!”
Many of the onlookers supported Yunxi Restaurant, so they yelled and asked the big man, "What do you think of the food in this restaurant? Why do you eat people to death?"
The big man straightened his stomach and said in a loud voice, "My master came here for a meal a few days ago, and he vomited and had diarrhea all night after returning home. Please ask the doctor to come over. The doctor said that there is something wrong with the food. Even the new Najin's concubine asked the master to bring some cakes back because she was greedy for food, and she fell unconscious at night."
"Hey! Boss Su is here!" Someone yelled, everyone's attention was on Su Qingqi, and the audience was silent.
Su Qingqi was really not suitable for dealing with such a troublesome situation. He was escorted into the restaurant by a few servants, looked at the messed-up tables and chairs, and looked at the troublemaker inside with cold eyes, and asked in a deep voice, " Where's your master? I, Su Qingqi, came here, didn't I want to ask for an explanation?" The voice was not loud, but it shocked everyone.
Someone replied tremblingly, "My master will come over later."
"Hmph!" Su Qingqi snorted coldly, and ordered to the servants he brought over and the guys in the restaurant, "Now, get rid of the troublemakers! Come and talk to me alone if you have anything to do. Yes, serve by force!"
With Su Qingqi's order, the waiters in the restaurant also got bolder, straightened up and went towards the troublemakers to push them out. There are not too many waiters in the restaurant, but Su Qingqi brought quite a few servants from home. After a while, the people inside were cleaned up. Su Qingqi pointed to the person in charge of the trouble and ordered to the subordinates, "Let him settle the money for the smashed things and let him go back, otherwise, send him to the yamen!"
The person in charge of the trouble yelled in dissatisfaction, "You, you are bullying the few, wait for our master to come..." Before he finished speaking, the person was already driven to the backyard.
Su Qingqi rubbed the center of his brows, and said to the manager who was hired half a month ago, "Take care of it, that person has come and let me know." After saying that, he went upstairs.
The old man's thin body was curled up under the quilt, seeing his grandson approaching, he struggled to get up and take a good look at his beloved grandson, knowing that his time had come, he called feebly, "Chenxu Qingqi, you are here. "
He Chenxu choked up and nodded, grabbing the old man's old hand and trembling, "Grandpa—"
Su Qingqi sniffed, and lowered his head to test the corners of his eyes. The life that is about to end for an old man in his dying years makes people feel emotional.
"Wanrong, you go out first." The old man forced himself to say such a sentence, panting and coughing heavily, "cough cough..."
