After a deal with a nemesis

Gu Xian didn't expect the old man to call his name, and he didn't know where to put his hands.

It's not dignified to keep it in your pocket, but how should you put it outside?

The sound of friction between palms and cloth disturbed the tranquility of the room, making Gu Xian feel even more at a loss.

A slightly cool palm held him firmly, and the fingers intertwined as if they were inseparable: "Yes, grandma, Gu Xian and I came to see you together."

The old woman smiled weakly but cheerfully, and looked at Gu Xian with both eyes: "Okay, I remember that you liked playing with Gu Xian the most when you were young. As long as Gu Xian is around, other children will not even want to talk to you."

Suddenly, Gu Xian couldn't bear the old woman's gaze, pulled the corners of his mouth, and forced an awkward smile.When he and Xie Yunjing were young, either you stuffed bugs into my collar, or I poured sand into your shoes, the others couldn’t talk to Xie Yunjing, that’s because Xie Yunjing was either chasing him or being chased and beaten by him .

The old woman's eyes fell on the two interlocking hands, and she stared at them for a long time, with peace of mind in her eyes: "Now that you are married, are you two still used to it?"

"Adapt." Xie Yunjing rubbed the back of Gu Xian's hand affectionately, his tone was so relaxed that he seemed to be chatting with the old man, "I regret not confessing and marrying him sooner."

"It's all this stinky old man of our family!" The old woman seemed to want to pat the back of Mr. Xie's hand in disgust, but she just raised her hand and lost her strength.

Mr. Xie immediately held his wife's hand again. He hunched his shoulders, and he no longer had the air of admonishing Xie Yunjing and Gu Xian. He was as fragile as an ordinary little old man.

There was a sad look in the old woman's eyes, and she said helplessly: "Old man, when I leave, you can't make things difficult for Xiao Jing and Xiao Gu. They have loved playing with each other since they were young, and now they are a good match when they grow up. Let's be together forever."

"Old man." The old woman struggled, "help me take out the things in the drawer."

Mr. Xie silently took out a small carved wooden box from the drawer.

The wooden box was placed by the old woman's hand, and the old woman gently pushed the wooden box: "Little Gu."

"Ah?" The old woman had expectations in her eyes, Gu Xian hesitated for a moment, and then called softly, "...Grandma."

"Hey." The old woman responded happily, and nodded the small wooden box, "I'm going to leave this for Xiaojing's wife. I thought it was for a girl, so they are all bracelets and rings. Take Go sell it and exchange it for something you like."

"Here……"

Gu Xian was embarrassed to accept it, but at a time like this, it is a crime to disobey the old man.Gu Xian took a look at Xie Yunjing, and finally took over the small wooden box: "How can this be sold, thank you grandma."

The old woman was thinking about her thoughts one by one, and her breathing became slower and slower.

When Gu Xian answered the phone before, Kang Bo meant to tell Xie Yunjing on the phone that Xie Yunjing was favored by Grandma Xie since childhood, and he has a deep affection for Grandma Xie. Please Gu Xian, please pay attention to Xie Yunjing's emotions.

Now Xie Yunjing couldn't hold back anymore, and took a step towards the bed with red eyes.

The old woman's eyes were out of focus, but she still turned her head keenly: "Xiao Jingna, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal things, everyone has to suffer, don't be too sad..."

The old woman slowed down, smiling contentedly and serenely: "Grandma can finally see your little uncle. After so many years, I miss my Sansan so much..."

Mr. Xie, who had been silent all this time, suddenly let out a weeping cry, and Xie Yunjing stepped forward even more excitedly: "Grandma!"

Gu Xian was a little confused.

Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie have three sons in total, and Xie Yunjing's father is the youngest of them, which is what Mrs. Xie called "San San".Xie Yunjing's father died of illness 15 years ago, but why did Grandma Xie say to Xie Yunjing, "Go see your little uncle"?

In the last few moments of the old man, it is not easy to shut her own son and other grandchildren outside.

Gu Xian has a little impression of Xie Yunjing's grandma, knowing that she is a kind and amiable old man, but he is not very familiar with her.He felt that his grief was limited, and staying in the ward would only be an eyesore.

He let go of Xie Yunjing's hand and let him stay by the bed, but he himself put on that carefree posture again, opened the door of the ward and walked out.

I don't know if it's because I couldn't see it, or for some other reason. As soon as Gu Xian went out, someone laughed unceremoniously: "Xie Yunjing is really outrageous, the old lady is about to leave, and she even brought in miscellaneous people. Is the old lady interfering?"

The person who spoke was Xie Dongqing, the son of Xie Yunjing's second uncle, and also Xie Yunjing's other cousin.He obviously regarded Gu Xian as being kicked out, his brows and eyes were full of contempt and ridicule.

At this time, he still has the heart to say that there is nothing, trying to secretly give Xie Yunjingan the name of an angry old lady. Xie Dongqing obviously doesn't have much real concern for the life and death of the old lady.

Xie Huaihong didn't know if he was pretending or it was real, at least he looked a little bit more like Xie Dongqing, so he frowned and pulled Xie Dongqing back.

"It's time like this, don't talk nonsense!"

Gu Xian touched the small wooden box in his pocket - the small wooden box was only the size of a palm, and it could fit in the pocket of the down jacket.

It is not Gu Xian's character to back down in front of this kind of person, and if he does not teach such unworthy descendants, he will also feel sorry for the old lady on the hospital bed.

He sneered: "So you are all hanging around outside because the old lady doesn't want to see you?"

This statement immediately caused dissatisfaction among many people.

Gu Xian didn't care, but Xie Dongqing was like a light on his back.

Gu Xian put away the expression on his face, and said a little irritably, "I wish I was kicked out."

This shows that Grandma Xie Yunjing still has the strength to be angry.

He gave way to the door.

"Hurry up and go in."

Everyone's expression changed, and they rushed into the ward without caring about anything else.

However, the two sons closest to the old lady's blood, that is, Xie Yunjing's uncle and second uncle, were the last ones, and asked Gu Xian with a gloomy expression: "Did the old lady say that no one will be allowed in?"

It was Xie Yunjing's second uncle who asked the question, but when Gu Xian answered, it was Xie Yunjing's uncle who looked at him.

"No."

Uncle Xie Yunjing looked at him a little strangely, with inexplicable pickiness.

Xie Yunjing's second uncle breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother, let's go in quickly."

Xie's family members entered the ward, Gu Xian closed the door intimately, then exhaled, turned and walked towards the elevator.

Xie Yunjing found Gu Xian at the entrance of a small supermarket outside the hospital.

Gu Xian stood under a tree on the sidewalk, with a cigarette in his hand, his entire face was shrouded in smoke.

Xie Yunjing approached, frowning: "I thought you quit."

Gu Xian started smoking when he was in high school, but after he got married and lived together, he didn't see Gu Xian smoking, so he thought he stopped smoking.

Gu Xian put the cigarette into his mouth, took another puff, and said, "Why should I smoke when it's nothing?"

That's what's going on now.

Xie Yunjing touched the pockets on both sides of his coat, and took out a package of cigarettes that had not been opened in plastic.He opened the lid of the box and looked, and there were three missing.

"Why did you come down?" I don't know if it was because of the cold or something else, but Gu Xian spoke with a nasal voice.

Xie Yunjing silently looked at the empty space in the cigarette case for a moment, then took out a cigarette: "My grandma is gone."

The saddest thing is when the old man is about to leave. When the old man really leaves, everything is settled, and it is easier for people to calm down.

"The hospital has to drop the equipment, and I have to wipe my grandmother's body and change clothes. I'm not a female relative, so it's inconvenient." He sucked the cigarette he took out, "Bring me a fire."

Gu Xian was a little surprised: "You also smoke?"

Xie Yunjing lowered his eyes: "You will, of course I will too."

"... Childish." Gu Xian was a little speechless, "Just for this, learn to smoke?"

He took a puff, and then remembered that he hadn't lent Xie Yunjing a light yet. His other hand was in his pocket, and it was freezing outside, so he didn't bother to take it out: "The lighter is in the pocket you took out of the cigarette case." ,Own……"

Xie Yunjing suddenly lowered his head, and used his own cigarette to touch the red light in front of Gu Xian's cigarette.

Gu Xian's nose was red, it looked as if he had been frozen for a long time, Xie Yunjing took the first puff of cigarettes on Gu Xian's face: "Thank you."

"...Get out." Gu Xian waved the smoke in front of him in disgust, turned his body to avoid Xie Yunjing, and exhaled another puff of white smoke himself.

Neither of the two spoke any more, they just smoked silently under the tree. The double smoke made it even more difficult for them to see each other clearly.

"Thank you Yunjing."

Gu Xian suddenly made a sound.

Xie Yunjing responded, "Huh?"

"Your grandma is so kind to you."

"..."

Xie Yunjing didn't know how to answer these words for a moment, but Gu Xian repeated again: "Your grandma is so kind to you."

The first time I couldn't hear it, but the second time, Xie Yunjing clearly heard Gu Xian's aggravated nasal voice.

He waved away the smoke that was between the two of them, and got closer to Gu Xian, only to see Gu Xian looking at the distance with trembling eyelashes, his eyes shaking as if they were about to shatter.

Xie Yunjing suddenly remembered that Gu Xian's mother also died in the ward of the hospital, and when she died, only little Gu Xian, who was only nine years old, stayed in the ward alone, watching his mother die.
