The snow didn't stop until evening, the town was covered in snow, and the red lanterns in the snow became brighter and brighter.
Huainan and Chanxia went to the place where Xiao Xue's sister used to live, but a new house had already been built there. After asking around, an old lady who still lived there finally remembered a girl named Xue who seemed to have been ill since she was a child. Not good, there are many children in the family, and Xiaoxue is a girl, so she was not popular at first, but later she was diagnosed with illness, and it would cost a lot of money. When the family heard about it, they took it out and threw it outside.
"Really?" Huainan said, this little sister Xue is also suffering.
"That's not true." The old lady said, "I heard from people who live near her house that the child came back by himself in the middle of the night, but his father refused to open the door. The child was crying miserably outside the door. Her mother couldn't bear it, Going to open the door, he was almost beaten to death by his father. You said that no one would dare to go to the neighbors. Besides, the countryside at that time was not rich, and there was no extra ration for the children. I could only watch. Later , I guess the baby¡¯s crying became weaker, and gradually became silent. When everyone opened the door to look in the morning, there was no sign of the child in front of the door. Everyone discussed in private, probably her father beat her to death quietly, or threw her away from freezing. Yes. In this winter, if a child cries outside the door all night, is he still alive?"
"What happened later?" Huainan asked, Miss Xue must not have died, and there will be nothing later.
"Later. Later, I heard that the child survived, was adopted, and someone donated money to treat her. Later I heard that someone saw her in the town and saw her holding a My child, from the look on her face, she should have cured her illness. Their family moved out after she cured her illness. It¡¯s been decades, I really don¡¯t remember"
When Huainan and Chanxia left, the red lanterns had already been held up on the side of the road. Passing by the stage, Chanxia stood under the stage and watched obsessively. Huainan gently tugged at her clothes, said: "Sister." Seeing Chan Xia gently wiping her tears there.
"That day, when Miss Xue was leaving, she joked, 'We are such good friends, but there is no one photo together. If I'm not here one day, you will forget what I look like, that's not good. Wait for me Come back safely, we must take a group photo to let you remember me. A good friend for a lifetime must be remembered for a lifetime'."
"So, sister Chanxia really remembers 'a lifetime'." Huainan thought, "Thirty years have passed, I wonder if that little sister Xue remembers that sister named Chanxia back then?"
A few days later, the old lady called suddenly and asked if she had a number. She said that Xiao Xue had left it for a business partner in the town.
When Huainan tentatively called, the other party was a young man. After asking the reason, he said that Xue Ci was his grandmother. She was 63 this year, and she was not in a good condition recently. She had been hospitalized for more than half a month and could not go back.
Huainan hurriedly asked where he was hospitalized, and after finding the address, he went to find Song Yan and asked Song Yan to take him to the city.
The two each made up a lie, and when they finally inquired about the hospital, it was said that Grandma Xue suddenly fell ill in the middle of the night and was sent to the intensive care unit.
Huainan was taken aback, and after repeated discussions with the young man on the phone, he finally agreed to allow Huainan to enter during the visiting hours.
In the intensive care unit, Grandma Xue had a lot of tubes inserted into her body, with a sallow complexion, eyes closed, lying there motionless.
Chanxia watched quietly by the bed, stood for a long time, and called softly: "Sister."
Grandma Xue seemed to hear it, and suddenly opened her eyes, looked in Chanxia's direction, and slowly raised her hand, which was tied with detection equipment, so she couldn't lift it up.
Cicada Xia hurriedly knelt down and held it, Grandma Xue seemed to say something. Huainan hurried forward, only to hear an inaudible voice say: "You are here."
Chanxia hummed, "I'm here."
"I always remember your appearance." Grandma Xue murmured, "So, I always remember."
"I remember it too, I always remember it." Chan Xia said, "I owe my sister a group photo, here I come."
Huainan's eyes were a little moist. Grandma Xue in front of her was nearly fifty years old with silver hair, while Chan Xia still looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
But the hearts of both of them seemed to have experienced endless vicissitudes.
Chanxia turned sideways slightly, leaned her head against Grandma Xue, gently held Grandma Xue in her arms, and looked to the side where Huainan was, Huainan took out his mobile phone to take pictures of the two of them.
Although the photos taken, there is nothing but Grandma Xue and the Didi calling machine next to her.
There is no Cicada in the photo.
And Chanxia, ??with a ray of obsession, couldn't touch Grandma Xue at all, but the two still cuddled together, smiling happily, with tears streaming down their faces.
"Sister, farewell. "Chan Xia gently hugged Grandma Xue, just like in the hospital more than 30 years ago, when Chan Xia was most helpless, Grandma Xue gave her a meal and a hug.
Cicada Xia's figure is slowly getting darker, and finally disappears endlessly. On the pillow beside the bed, there is only the photo, the firelight all over the sky and the half blurred figure of Cicada Xia.
"Drip" The bedside machine screamed suddenly, and the doctor and nurse broke in and drove Huainan out. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
