Chapter 0296 – Weird Things Happen
The old man did not answer Zhuang Rui’s words. Instead, he spoke out and asked, “Your father’s body was a bit weak back then, but it wasn’t a terminal illness, so why did he die so early?”
Although Ouyang Gang said that he had severed his relationship with his daughter, but his heart has always still been attached to this youngest child, he just returned to Beijing after those five or six years, has not been arranged to work, living a life of almost semi-retirement, so what happened to Ouyang Wan during that time is not very well understood, only after his son went to Pangcheng for the second time, he learned that Zhuang Rui’s father passed away.
In fact, the psychology of parents towards their children is very strange, especially the father towards his daughter and the mother towards her son, always unable to give him/her up to their daughter-in-law or son-in-law, which is one of the most important reasons for the mother-in-law-daughter-in-law relationship to be discordant.
And Ouyang Gang act, has always been strong inertia, the daughter did not discuss with him on the private booking for life, and is willing to do this and their own friendship, this is actually the main reason Ouyang Gang angry, as for the early years of the marriage, Ouyang Gang did not how to put on the heart. Of course, these words in his heart, he would rather rot in his heart, but also not willing to mention to others.
“My father’s health wasn’t very good after I was born, it was a difficult time for the family, my father seemed to have done a lot of work, and when I was five years old, my father passed away.”
For the past, Zhuang Rui didn’t remember much clearly anymore, he was too young at that time, but he remembered that his father was always busy.
“Doing many jobs?”
After hearing Zhuang Rui’s words, the muscles on Ouyang Gang’s face twitched, he could naturally guess that it was his own words back then that stimulated Zhuang Rui’s father, and he also somewhat understood at this time why when his eldest son went to look for Ouyang Wan later on, Ouyang Wan uttered such desperate words.
“You …… just refuse to call me grandpa?”
After the old man said this, it took a room full of people to remember that Zhuang Rui hadn’t called out the word grandpa since the beginning.
“Grandpa, you’re not in good health, it’s better to take a rest first! Come, I’ll help you lie down first.”
Although Ouyang Lei just recognized Zhuang Rui, but from the conversation between the two just now, he could see that Zhuang Rui is a soft but not hard nature, afraid that he and the old man will quarrel. Hurriedly stepped forward to round off the scene, but this heart is indeed also afraid of the old man’s body can not afford.
“Get out of the way, he hasn’t answered my words!” To the surprise of the crowd, the old master who had always loved Ouyang Lei the most, this time, he did not give his eldest grandson the slightest bit of face.
“You still haven’t said if you’ll let or not let my mom visit you?”
Zhuang Rui looked straight into the old man’s eyes, refusing to budge even a single step, the meaning of his words was obvious, if you don’t recognize your own daughter, why should I recognize you as my grandfather?
“Come on! If you don’t come, I’m afraid you won’t be able to see me as an old man.” As Ouyang Gang said these words, the aura on his body faded, and his entire body looked tired, no longer looking like that mighty general, but an ordinary old man.
Suddenly, Ouyang Gang lifted his head, a trace of color flashed in his eyes that none of the onlookers had noticed, and said: ”Now you can call me grandpa, can’t you? You won’t lose out if you recognize me as your grandpa.”
Zhuang Rui raised his head, looked at this old man in front of him, and said seriously, “My father once gave me a sentence. That is: sweat your own sweat, eat your own food, rely on heaven and earth, rely on your parents, is not a real man, I call you grandpa, just because you are my mother’s father, not the general I saw on TV.”
When I was a child, Zhuang Rui did not really understand this sentence, but always in mind, just graduated from college that will be in Pengcheng’s work is not very ideal, the mother’s intention is to stay at home first, and then slowly find a suitable job, but Zhuang Rui decided to go south to the Central Sea, it is out of his father’s year of this sentence.
The old man was silent after hearing these words, from these words, he seemed to see that stubborn kid back then again, stiffening his neck and saying to him, “I can take care of Wan’er, I have the ability to take care of her, we don’t need anyone’s help, as well as we can live a good life.”
In Ouyang Gang’s eyes, Zhuang Rui’s image and that hairy lad back then slowly overlapped, the old man didn’t think that what he said in anger back then had hurt that son-in-law of his so deeply, and also made his daughter cut off her contact with him for decades, at this moment, the old man felt a trace of remorse in his heart.
“Good, good boy, ambitious. Being a man should rely on oneself, the old man also took a sickle back then and participated in the revolution, this huge family business, are all fought down by the old man himself, you are right, in the family, I’m just your grandpa, not some great general.”
When the old man said these words, looking at Zhuang Rui’s eyes, full of appreciation, this nearly twenty years, there have been very few people with Zhuang Rui this tone of voice and he spoke, but even Ouyang Gang himself did not realize, his own appreciation of Zhuang Rui inside, in fact, mixed with a trace of guilt for his daughter and son-in-law.
Seeing this master and grandson relationship eased down, Ouyang Zhenwu hastily gave Zhuang Rui a wink, let him persuade the old man to take a rest, Ouyang Zhenwu heart is also strange, this old man lying in bed for almost half a year, only when the weather is good to come out to bask in the sun, today this spirit, but for the first time ah! Could it be …… a flashback?
Ouyang Zhenwu thought here. No longer able to stand, quickly went forward and said: ”Dad, take a break and then chat! Xiao Rui will stay here today.”
“Well, child, move a chair for your grandmother, come over and sit here.”
Ouyang Gang sat for half a day, he also felt a bit tired, after all, Zhuang Rui’s aura wasn’t omnipotent, he had been sick for so long, where could he say that he would be fine.
“Huh. Honey, your legs don’t hurt?”
Ouyang Gang this will only realize that his old partner actually stood for half a day, usually but walk up three or five steps that leg pain can not stand.
“Dead old man, you just saw me ah!”
The old lady cursed with dissatisfaction, but let Ouyang Jun moved another chair, pulled Zhuang Rui down in front of him and let him sit next to him.
At this time, Ouyang Zhenwu was that special care shouted out, and then came in, but behind them is followed by a group of people, the leader is that Dr. Dou, dare to be that just now that special care to see the old man’s spirit of exuberance, for fear of what accidents, to Dr. Dou and other people to shout back again.
“Little Dou ah! I’m in good health today, so I don’t need to take injections and medication, right? Alright, you guys go back! Let my grandson accompany me.” The old man’s face was a little unnatural when he saw Dr. Dou.
“Chief, have you been secretly drinking again?”
Dr. Dao smiled and walked over, this old man was a little better served than the old lady, he just often couldn’t help his alcohol addiction and would secretly drink some white wine.
“No, absolutely no, I said quit and quit, alas, just drank so little.”
The old man denied in one mouth, but coldly by Dr. Dou from the bedside turned out a two-two bottles of wine, the old man now face can not hang on, full of resentful look.
“You guys go out for a while, let’s help the chief check his body.”
Dr. Dao turned back to Zhuang Rui and the others, Ouyang Gang had the intention to stop it, only that he himself had just been caught with a pigtail, so he could only accept it helplessly.
Zhuang Rui assisted his grandmother out of the room and sat down in the courtyard, the nights in Yuquan Mountain were not that hot even in summer. The group of people were waiting for the doctor’s examination results in the courtyard.
After about half an hour or so, Dr. Dou took the lead and walked out, his face full of puzzled expressions, but let the people present in addition to Zhuang Rui, their hearts all “thumped” a bit.
“Dr. Dou, how is my father’s body?”
Ouyang Zhenwu greeted up, he just suspected that his father heard the news of his daughter, stimulated back to the light, this time to see the expression on the face of Dr. Dou, and is to confirm a few points of their own ideas, the face can not help but become very ugly.
“The head of the head he …… how to say it, a little strange.”
“Hey, I said Dr. Dao, my grandfather in the end how? You give an accurate word, okay?” Ouyang Jun looked at Dr. Dou’s stuttering speech and spoke out to interrupt him.
When Dr. Dou was speaking, he had been lowering his head to think about his mind, and only raised his head when he heard Ouyang Jun’s words, and once he saw the crowd’s anxious appearance, he knew that he had been mumbled, and hurriedly said, “Hey, don’t worry about it, the head’s body is fine, and some of the faculties are recovering very well.”
“Dr. Dao, please make it clearer, what happened to my grandfather’s body? Where is it recovering well?”
Ouyang Lei stepped forward and asked after him, the old man’s body is the most important thing for the Ouyang family, as long as the old man can last through this year, when the plenary meeting is held, Ouyang Lei’s father can be on the throne, and that’s the big picture has been decided.
“This is hard to say, there are some tools that can’t be carried, just now the inspection wasn’t that detailed, but the head’s hearing has recovered, and the symptoms of the right half of his body being sore and numb have disappeared. Just now I tried to help the head to walk a little bit, and found that the head’s leg function has also shown signs of improvement, of course, these are just our preliminary diagnosis, it’s still too early to draw a conclusion, tomorrow I hope that the head and the old lady, will both come to have a checkup.”
When Dr. Dao said these words, his heart is really very strange, although the old man did not suffer from any terminal disease, but old age, those old injuries and old illnesses on the body a relapse, is also able to kill the old man, but just now, a check, those organ apparatus of the problem, actually have most of the restoration of the function.
This makes Dr. Dao and other people’s hearts, is puzzled, coupled with the old lady inexplicably restored vision eyes, today’s strange things, really a pile after a pile.
