Chapter 19： Your Highness is not right in a moment

...

Next day

Today is the National Day of October 1st, and the school is closed for 10 days. Jian Mo can finally go back to his grandfather’s house to play. The students in the class made appointments to go to the playground to play. Of course, some polite people asked him if he would go, but After experiencing some things, Jian Mei is still willing to go back to the countryside to be company with his grandfather's drug shed.

The roads in the village are a bit remote. When they arrived at the entrance of the village, many people had just returned from the ground and would greet him when they saw him:

"Immigration is back!"

"This child seems to be a lot taller."

"The cucumber that auntie just picked from the ground is very tender. Take it and taste it."

"Tell me this and go back, I remember your grandpa is so good..."

It’s not a long distance from the entrance of the village to home. Jane walks and stops. She can’t cope with it. If she doesn’t adapt, it’s actually still a habit. Grandpa is kind and kind, and often treats the lone elderly in the village for free. There are too many young people nowadays. Going to work in the city, either women and children are left behind, or the elderly are alone. A trip to the hospital in the village is very far away. If you have any serious illnesses, you will go to Mr. Jian to have a look.

Jian Mo arrived at the door of the house and happened to see a kind of tabby cat walking not far away on catwalks. He squatted down and said, "Little raccoon, where do you come back from?"

The tabby cat glanced at him coldly and entered the door.

Jian Mei held the fruits in his arms, followed Xiao Tan's pace, and said, "Grandpa!"

The old man who was sitting in the rocking chair for a nap under the pergola was agitated. He looked up at him and smiled: "Oh, I am coming back to see Grandpa on holiday?"

Jian Mei: "Where do you put this fruit?"

"Just put it in the sink next to the well." The old man fanned the fan: "wash two cucumbers and eat."

"Sure."

Jian Mei put her small backpack on the table, then ran to squat by the sink to wash cucumbers, and asked: "Grandpa, I saw Aunt Li when I came over today. She was breathing a little hard, and I watched her make a few more noises. Coughing, it is estimated that it will turn cold in autumn, and her asthma has become a lot more serious."

"Wearing, hearing, asking, everything is indispensable." The old man closed his eyes and said: "But she is also an old problem. You will go to the backyard to grab the medicine and show it to me later. Don't make a mistake."

When she was young, Jian Mei just learned to walk and became a little medicine boy behind her father. The medicine cabinet at home was tall and big. Sometimes the elderly had inconvenient legs and feet, and Jian Mei jumped up and down to grab medicine. Even if she was illiterate, she could still remember the position. Those prescriptions were very well-known. Later, when he went to elementary school, Jian's father installed a medicine cabinet that could be raised and lowered automatically, and the elderly in the province had to climb up and down.

Doctors are busy working in departments and operating tables all year round. Shen Meina also rushes to inform all over the country. Jian Mei has been raised in the countryside since childhood and has the closest relationship with her father.

Jian Mei said yes, came over and handed him the cucumber: "Grandpa, taste it."

Cucumbers are juicy and tender, and they are still a little sweet after being washed by the well water. The old man said with emotion: "This year's season is good. God enjoys food and has a good harvest. The herbs on the mountain grow well. Even these melons and fruits are good. eat."

Jian Mo sat next to the pony pier. He looked at the chickens dangling around in the fence not far away, muttering: "Grandpa doesn't plant the land. It's not all things sent by grandpa or aunts."

The old man sneered: "What do you kid know?"

"I understand!" Jian Mei took a bite of the cucumber, and the breeze gently blew the vines, his round eyes bent, and he whispered, "Because grandpa doesn't want grandpas to dare not come to see the doctor."

Maybe only the people in the village would have this tacit understanding of each other.

Some old people in the village all year round have lost their labor force, and their children are still alive. Some children who died prematurely have no source of income.

I want to survive on my own when I get serious or minor illnesses. I dare not enter the clinic or seek a doctor.

No one knows the old man's life savings, but he is absolutely comfortable with food and clothing, but he will still accept the melons and fruits that the neighbors and villagers send when they are fine, and in this way, the sick will come to see the disease without consideration.

The old man ate the cucumber slowly, and said with some emotion: "When your grandma is here, you love to grow these flowers and plants."

Jian Mei was curious: "I haven't heard you say it before."

Grandma passed away early, and the couple had a deep affection. No one in the family dared to mention this sad thing. Jianma had only seen photos by his grandfather's bedside table since childhood.

The old man smiled: "You want to see it."

Jian Mei nodded fiercely: "Come here."

The old man got up and walked into the house. Jian Mei followed him step by step. There was a well-locked cabinet in the study room in the back room. The old man took out a photo album from it. It is yellow, but it can be seen that the owner is very caring, and the old photos in the album are still well preserved after opening the album.

"This... is your grandma's epiphany, it blooms for the first time."

Jian Mei sat on the sofa, leaning against him, pointing to the photo: "What about this one?"

"This is the aster grown by your grandma." The old man smiled softly and kindly: "I told her that there are many on the mountain, but she doesn't listen, but I have to plant it at home to look good."

What seems to be a reproach is full of spoiling.

Jane looked at the photo with curly brows: "Grandma is so beautiful."

The old man's tone was unstoppable pride: "That is, she was the most beautiful in the past ten miles and eight villages."

Jian Mei opened his mouth and laughed, quietly listening to the old man talking about the past of him and his wife one by one. In fact, over the years, he has become older, and he can't remember many things clearly, but seeing the photos can tell everything behind him. The background and the story are meticulously told. Over the years, he has held these memories, and every point has been in his head countless times. It is these memories that accompany him through the rest of his life.

"It's Ari."

"It's not Ali, but Ali's mother."

"So Ari's mother was at home when she was young?"

"Yeah." The old man looked at the kitten in the photo: "That year, when I went to the mountain to collect medicine, this tabby cat broke its leg and was picked up by your grandmother. Pester your grandma, where to go and where to go."

Jian Mo said: "Then is it gone?"

The old man paused when he flipped through the photo, and then nodded slightly: "Your grandma was not at home when she was sick and was hospitalized. She didn't eat or drink. After she passed away, she started to eat and disappeared for a month. Then one day. I came back to be pregnant, gave birth to the only seedling Ari, and left."

Jian Mei didn't understand at first: "Where did it go?"

The old man paused, and reached out his hand to touch Jian Mei's head, with a gentle voice: "Go to your grandma."

The curtain in the house was gently raised by the wind, and the tabby cat slowly walked in from outside, turned around and jumped on the sofa, and finally lay down slowly on the old man's lap.

The old man touched Ari's head and said softly, "Ari, thank you for staying with me for your mother for more than ten years."

The tabby cat flicked its tail lazily.

The old man was getting older and prone to get sleepy. He said he was reading a photo album, and soon leaned on the sofa and fell asleep. Jian Mei didn't bother him, so he brought a blanket from the study to cover him, and lightened his steps along the way for fear. Wake people up.

Going to the other side of the window, he continued to look at the photo album.

This album is very thick, and I can turn to my parents’ photos in the future. He and my brother’s photos, first the photos of my brother when he was a child, and then his own. Jian Mei was looking at her in a daze, and she felt the phone vibrated slightly. Come out to see it is Lu Xingwang's reply: [Pay attention to safety on the road]

It turned out that he sent Lu Xing a presumptuous message in the morning that he was going back to the country. This person has not returned until now.

Jane didn't care, but told him, "I've arrived. Now, looking at the album in my grandfather's study, they are all pictures of me when I was a kid. It's fun, do you want to see it?"

Lu Xingwang was looking at the accessories of the new mecha in the mechanical assembly room. After scanning the news, he replied coldly: [Busy]

Jian Mo sighed and replied: "Well, when I was a kid, my mother didn't know why. She always liked to raise me as a girl, and she would let me wear a skirt to take pictures. I wanted to show you ,never mind."

...

There was a long silence over there

then

Lu Xing sent him a message: [It's over]
