Chapter 83 Chapter Eighty-Second: A Bed of Zen Hearts, The Ceiling Quit Me

It turns out that the woman is Yang Xingyuan's friend Shi Kelian.Although Fu Jiajun had never talked with her, he knew her.So the two nodded with a smile.Shi Kelian wanted Fu Jiajun to come forward, but Fu Jiajun asked Shi Kelian to come forward. The two humbled each other, and Shi Kelian had no choice but to step forward.Because it is inconvenient to ignore people, I couldn't find a suitable word for a while, so I asked, "Is Mr. Yang Xingyuan at home?" Scollen said. "I saw him a few days ago, he doesn't seem to be a sick person." Fu Jiajun said: "He used to have a little illness, but a new one was added the day before yesterday, so he lay down." Shi Kelian said: "Oh That's it. Mr. Fu, please tell me when I go back, that I was supposed to come to see him. But my grandmother is also very sick at a relative's house, and I can't do without her. Please don't take offense." Fu Jiajun said with a smile : "That's not possible."

Shi Kelian finished grabbing the medicine, and said to Fu Jiajun, "I'll take a step first." He nodded and went out of the shop first.She originally hired a round-trip car, and the car was waiting outside the shop when she was grabbing the medicine.She got into the car at this time, and the car pulled a few steps, and she quickly shouted: "Stop! Stop!" The driver thought she had left something in the shop, so he stopped.Skellian got out of the car and walked into the pharmacy again.When Fu Jiajun turned around, seeing her coming again, he asked, "Did Miss Shi lose anything?" Shi Kelian said, "I didn't lose anything... I lost a handkerchief..." As he spoke, he glanced at the ground Look, and said: "Forget about throwing away a broken handkerchief. Mr. Fu, you went back to see Mr. Yang, please tell him that I am going back to my relative's house now. I will go to see him tomorrow morning." Fu Jiajun said: "Yes Yes. For the past few days, we advise him to rest at home, and he must be at home. "

Shi Kelian said "excuse me", then got into the car and came to her uncle Yu's house.When I arrived at Yu's house, I carried the medicine bag and walked back to Mrs. Shi's room. At this time, Mrs. Shi was sleeping on an old steel bed with a gray and old pearl curtain hanging down. Mrs. Shi covered it with a blanket. Half of his upper body was covered, and he slept with his face turned inward.Outside the tent, there was a small coffee table with half a bowl of porridge and a plate of assorted pickles on it.When Shi Kelian saw it, she must have eaten porridge and was already asleep, so she didn't want to disturb her.In the corridor outside the window, there was a small charcoal stove ready to boil medicine.Yin took the medicine jar from the window sill and went to the small kitchen where the tea was made.A can of tap water was served.From here, I was going to pass behind Mrs. Yu Sanyi's room.Suddenly there was a sentence that came to my ears, "If there is something wrong with the old man, isn't this child running away with others? We can't take her here, and she won't want us to take her in. She has a lot of money from friends to help her. What are you afraid of?" You don’t believe it, even if she pays her tuition, the old man has some money to subsidize her. After she went out, she made a lot of new clothes. Where did she get the money? Hmph! This thing is always bad.” Shi Ke Hearing this, Lian couldn't help trembling all over, and the medicine jar in her hand rolled to the ground as soon as she let go.Fortunately, there are deep grasslands on both sides, and only the stone road in the middle is for people to walk.The medicine jar is filled with water and is real.It fell on the grass again, there was no hard object to resist, only some water flowed out, and the jar was not broken.The old man is the most taboo to break the medicine jar, thinking that this is the fundamental solution, so when the medicine jar fell down, her face turned pale with fright, now she picked it up and saw that it was not damaged, so she hurriedly filled it with water and sent it to the corridor to boil medicine.He took a small stool one foot in size, and sat by the stove waiting for the medicine to be ready.Suddenly there were two hums in the room.Shi Kelian walked in quickly, and called "Grandma" through the curtain.Mrs. Shi turned over slowly, and Shi Kelian hung up one side of the curtain for her.Mrs. Shi rubbed her eyes, raised her head, looked at her face and said, "Why are you crying again, I might die." Shi Kelian said with a smile, "Why did I cry? I just coughed After a while, I coughed up tears." When he said that, he took off the handkerchief on the button of his coat and went to wipe his tears.Mrs. Shi said: "I just had a dream. I dreamed that Ms. Li came. Is she here?" Shi Kelian said with a smile: "Why do you take the dream as real?" Mrs. Shi said: "I I miss her very much. The day before yesterday, that old Mr. Fang came here, so I said I wanted her to come." Hearing what her grandmother said, Shi Kelian knew that she wanted to bring up her marriage issue.He said: "Take good care of your illness and don't worry about other things. When you recover from illness, everything will be easy to do." Mrs. Shi said: "Mr. Fang said the day before yesterday that Mr. Yang is not feeling well, is that true? Shi Kelian said: "When I went to Tongrentang today, I met his student from a rich family who was buying medicine for him. I heard that he was lying on the bed." Mrs. Shi said: "Didn't you ask what's wrong?" Shi Kelian said: "Probably not light. If it is light, then why would the student from the rich family come to fetch medicine with him in person?"

Old Mrs. Shi said: "That's right. You should go and see. They treat us well. We don't care about this kind of face. Are you okay with it?" Old Mrs. Shi is a sick person , After talking a lot, it was too late for her energy, and she lay her head on the pillow, watching Shi Kelian quietly waiting for an answer. In Shi Kelian's heart, many emotions were added out of thin air. When the grandmother asked, she was embarrassed to tell the whole story.If you don't answer directly, you don't feel right.After not speaking for a long time, Mrs. Shi was very surprised, and asked: "Why don't you speak? You have also been there to deliver and receive letters. He is sick. Why are you embarrassed? If you feel inconvenient , just say that I told you to go." Shi Kelian said: "It's nothing to go there, they have a lot of people here, and I'm afraid there will be trouble again." Mrs. Shi said: "You will come after a while No one will know." At this point, Mrs. Yu sent an old lady to ask what the old lady would eat.Mrs. Shi replied that she didn't want to eat anything, and the old lady went by herself.Afterwards, Yu Ruixiang bought a large bag of candied pears, raisins, candied dates, etc., and talked with her for a while, and it was difficult to say what her grandparents said.Shi Kelian went down to the corridor to decoct medicine and make tea.

Mrs. Shi said to Yu Ruixiang: "Your cousin came back without bringing anything. I will ask her to go to school tomorrow so I can bring a change of clothes." Yu Ruixiang said: "Just let her go. If you want to change your clothes, you can change my clothes first." Shi Kelian said through the window: "I still have to get my book." Yu Ruixiang said: "Grandma, listen, she is still The division is so severe." Mrs. Shi said: "It is true that she is going to get the book. If you think about my illness, if this trouble continues, you will know when the day will be better. My illness is not good, and she can't leave .

After a long time, I returned the book to my husband.She came back with the book and read it when she was free, which was not bad. " Yu Ruixiang said: "When are we going? Cousin, let's go together, okay?" Shi Kelian came in with a small cup of West Lake lotus root powder, smiled and nodded and said, "We'll talk about it tomorrow." But with this On the first level of dating, Skellian seemed embarrassed.On the next day, she had to go out at nine o'clock. At this time, Yu Ruixiang hadn't gotten up yet, so she naturally didn't know. Shi Kelian went out, sat in the car, and came all the way to Yang Xingyuan's apartment.When we got there, Brother Fu in front had already gone to school, so Shi Kelian purposely stepped louder, hitting the ground loudly, then coughed twice, and stood in the corridor for a while.At this time, a footman came out, stretched his head to look, and said with a smile: "Miss Shi, you haven't come for a long time." Shi Kelian nodded and smiled, and asked: "Is Mr. Yang better?" The footman said: "Yes Alright, I'm reading Buddhist scriptures now. Please sit inside." He led the way in front.When I walked to the backyard, I smelled a scent of sandalwood, wafting in the air.The curtain was lowered silently, without any sound.At this moment, Yang Xingyuan was in the room and laughed.Shi Kelian didn't know what was going on, it was different than coming here as usual.There was a burst of heat on his face at first, and he lowered his head unconsciously.Yin asked: "Is Mr. Yang not feeling well? My grandmother is also not very nice, let me come to see you." Yang Xingyuan let her sit in his room, but he himself sat on a sofa.

Shi Kelian saw that he was wearing a serge gown, his long hair was disheveled, his face was pale, and he had lost a lot of weight. On the couch were several volumes of large woodcut books, and a string of Buddhist beads threaded with yellow silk threads.Look at that, that book is a Buddhist scripture.In the ancient tripod on the case, a handful of thin sandalwood sticks are burning.Shi Kelian said with a smile: "It's been a long time, Mr. Yang's Buddhist skills have improved again." Yang Xingyuan laughed and said: "I just use this to pass the time while I am sick." When he said this, his voice seemed to be very hurried.Shi Kelian said: "Lie down, you don't have to be polite." Yang Xingyuan said: "It doesn't matter, I would like to sit up if someone talks about it." Like being overly concerned, it seems inconvenient.Apart from this, there was nothing to say, and instead fell silent.Seeing her like this, Yang Xingyuan asked, "Is school starting soon?" Seeing that he suddenly talked about going to school, Shi Kelian thought that he meant some kind of support.He said: "There are still two weeks. In terms of economy, I am more active now, so I can study with peace of mind."

After saying this, he remained silent.Shi Kelian approached, took a Buddhist scripture, flipped through it and looked at it.Yang Xingyuan said: "Ms. Shi, do you understand what the above said?" Shi Kelian shook his head and smiled, "I don't understand at all. It's like the transliteration of foreign names and place names, which can't be understood literally. Mr. Yang found this very interesting, so it’s strange.” Yang Xingyuan said: “Studying Buddhist scriptures is not a matter of interest, it depends on whether this person is destined or not.” Just as I was speaking of the word fate, someone called Xingyuan in the yard outside.When Yang Xingyuan heard it was He Jianchen's voice, he said, "Please come in." He Jianchen walked in, and Mrs. He also came.When Mrs. He saw Shi Kelian, she stepped forward quickly, took her hand and said with a smile: "Good morning." Shi Kelian said: "My grandmother is also sick. Yesterday I went to Tongrentang to get medicine, and I met Fu here. Sir, he said that Mr. Yang was also unwell, so I came to see him early in the morning. I just arrived too." He Jianchen only dealt with her for two or three words, because he said to Yang Xingyuan: "How is today, what do you think? Are you more comfortable?" Yang Xingyuan said: "It's more comfortable. But I don't have the strength, so I still can't work as usual." He Jianchen said: "In this case, you can just lie down, you are not an outsider, so you can't say you are rude." Yang Xingyuan He said: "It's good to just sit and sit. When someone is talking, if you feel happy, you will forget your tiredness." He Jianchen said: "In this case, we will come early and go late, and talk with you all day long, let you Be more happy mentally." He Jianchen said something carelessly, but after he said it, Mrs. He gave him a hard look.He Jianchen suddenly came to his senses, and then realized what was wrong with him, and quickly said: "You should take a serious look at your illness, don't be careless, just drink some medicine and you'll be fine. Didn't they introduce Dr. Chen Yongnian for the first time?

I advise you to take a look tomorrow. "Yang Xingyuan said:" Let's talk about it in two or three days. " Shi Kelian said: "This Dr. Chen's Hospital is in Dongcheng. Isn't it too far to go here?" He Jianchen said: "As long as the disease is well taken care of, it doesn't matter if the distance is far away. Xingyuan, you can try it tomorrow morning .” Yang Xingyuan agreed and nodded.Shi Kelian still had to go to school to pick up things, so she didn't dare to delay too long, and she was going to leave immediately, and everyone tried to persuade them to stay, but they couldn't.

After Shi Kelian left, He Jianchen said with a smile: "Your friendship is not bad. She came to visit and arrived before us." Yang Xingyuan said: "This is really bumping into my father-in-law while riding a donkey. I know you have to gossip. To put it bluntly, a friendship is a friendship, and a marriage is a marriage. Just because Ms. Shi has come here, it means that the marriage has improved." He Jianchen smiled and said, "What did you talk about just now? I seem to have heard something It seems to be destined." Mrs. He frowned and said, "You really don't know how to advance or retreat when you talk." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, everything can be said to others. Yes, I mentioned the predestined or not. In a word.

But when I say predestined or not predestined, I mean studying Buddhism, not other things. "He Jianchen said: "People come to inquire about your illness, do you want to talk about Buddhism for a while? "Yang Xingyuan said: "No way! "He Jianchen smiled and said: "Vimala was ill in the past, my Buddha sent a goddess to spread flowers, and a group of disciples sat around, with a firm heart, smallpox would not spread on the body.How about you? "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "Although I dare not say how firm my heart is, but at this moment, a celestial maiden came to scatter flowers, I don't think small flowers will be scattered on me this day. "He Jianchen smiled and said: "Is it really true?You talked to Ms. Smith just now, what is your sitting posture, you still imitate it and show me. "Yang Xingyuan heard about it, so he stopped smiling, straightened his chest, and sat down on the soft couch without looking sideways. He held Buddhist beads in his left hand, pinching them one by one with his thumb. He Jianchen laughed and said: "Okay, that's a good attitude.Let me ask you, why are you not tempted? "Yang Xingyuan said:" the catkins will not fly when they are covered with mud. "He Jianchen said:" Doesn't it have a coercive nature? "Yang Xingyuan said: "How can there be silk when silkworms reach Sanmian. "He Jianchen said: "Speaking of this, you are not running away from meditation, you have no choice but to come out here. "Yang Xingyuan said:" After reading all the waves, I have reached the sky. "He Jianchen said:" Are you still halfway through now? "Hearing what he said, Yang Xingyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly:" Tianwai Lingfeng pointed to Gu Zhong. "He Jianchen said: "In this way, you have decided to become a monk. "Yang Xingyuan said:" Shi Zi is speechless, how could he be affectionate. "He Jianchen said: "Everything, can you let go? "When Yang Xingyuan was asked here, he didn't feel his heart move, and he didn't agree for a while. He nodded to He Jianchen and said: "There are mountains in the Great Wall, and the world is not named Qin now. "He Jianchen said: "If you understand it thoroughly, you have realized it.Let me ask you. ..." Mrs. He said: "What are you two arguing about? Even if you play charades, I don't understand at all. Do you still want to talk about it? I'm sick of you. "He Jianchen smiled and said: "Not only do you not understand, even if you invite your teacher, Ms. Li, you still cannot understand everything. "Mrs. He said:" If you want to talk, you can talk, if you want to ask, you can ask, why do you have to make such a slang?I find it really sour. "He Jianchen said to Yang Xingyuan: "Listen, this is also the rent urging official interrupting Shi Xing. "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said:" It's fine not to talk about it, but if you keep talking about it, it really becomes a mantra. "He Jianchen said with a smile: "Of course it's a mantra, isn't it still a mantra?Let me ask you, if Ms. Li comes, can you change your mind and think of it as emptiness and color? "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "She must not come, even if she does, I will not change my attitude. " He Jianchen heard about it and looked at his wife.Mrs. He said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, what you said is not very good. You will show your feet in the future. Now Mr. Li has sent a letter saying that he will come to Beijing within a month. If you talk about becoming a monk, don't you?" Make her sad?" Yang Xingyuan said with a smile: "I don't believe this kind of statement without real evidence." Mrs. He couldn't bear it anymore, she took out a letter from her pocket, handed it to Yang Xingyuan, and said with a smile "Please take a look, this is her own handwriting, can we lie?" Yang Xingyuan took out the letterhead and saw that it was indeed written by Li Dongqing. He agreed to come within a month, and asked Mrs. He to prepare a room for her. .The letter was very simple and didn't mention anything else, nor did it say why you came.Returning the letter to Mrs. He, he said: "This is very strange, it seems that she is the only one who wants to come. What is the reason?" He Jianchen said: "I dare to guess ninety-nine percent, it must be a matchmaker for you. We After researching at home for a day, I thought that she decided not to agree to your marriage by herself. If she agreed to your marriage by herself and wrote a letter to settle everything, why bother to come by herself." Yang Xingyuan said: "You are quite right. But it's too much to do." After finishing speaking, he leaned his head on the high head on the sofa and sighed slightly. He Jianchen said: "You are too tired to talk with two groups of guests before and after. You should have a good rest, we are going. Tomorrow morning you must go to Dr. Chen's place to have a look, don't miss your own affairs." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said : "There is no one who is not afraid of death. I am afraid of death, so I have to go to the doctor as soon as possible. This will not miss my business." When he said, he had already stood up.He Jianchen said: "You just lie down, there is no need for you to see it off." He and his wife bid farewell and left. Yang Xingyuan felt really tired, lay down on one side, and fell asleep for a long time.When I woke up, I saw two beautifully decorated brocade boxes on the desk. When I took it to look at it, one box was West Lake lotus root powder, and the other box was Hangzhou white chrysanthemum. Next to the box, there is a business card of Skellian.The business card said, "Mr. Xingyuan, please take care of your ailments. It's ridiculous to send you a small instrument. It's just a show of respect." , took out the fountain pen that he carried with him, and wrote these words.The servant happened to come in, and Yang Xingyuan asked who brought the things.The servant said: "When you fell asleep, Miss Shi came again. She walked to the front yard, gave me the things, and went again. I saw that you were asleep, so I just made a fuss, but didn't stay much." Her." Yang Xingyuan knew that Shi Kelian was in trouble, and the boss felt sorry for receiving these two things from her.But things have been left behind, and nothing can be done. On the next day, I was eager to get well, so I went to Chen Yongnian Hospital for treatment at nine o'clock in the morning.It happened that there were many people seeing a doctor, so I had to sit in the waiting room.Unexpectedly, within five minutes of sitting, Skellyn also came.Yang Xingyuan was very surprised, so she stepped forward and asked, "Miss Shi, why are you here?" Shi Kelian said, "Our place is very close to here. My grandmother also wanted to come here for treatment, so let me inquire about the rules of hospitalization first." Is Mr. Yang better today?" Yang Xingyuan said: "It's still the same. I haven't seen it yet, so I don't know if there is a serious illness lurking in my body?" Shi Kelian said: "If the illness is not mild, I strongly recommend that Mr. Yang be hospitalized. There are doctors It's much better to live with a caregiver than to live in someone else's home. It's just because of the proximity of the road... I can... come to visit a few times. "When I said this, my voice was so low and intermittent that I could barely hear it. Yang Xingyuan said: "I'm not sure if I'm going to be hospitalized, so I have to listen to the doctor's orders. "Speaking of which, an eye disease doctor came out of the consulting room, and the hospital staff asked Yang Xingyuan to come into the consulting room to see the doctor. As soon as the door was opened, Dr. Chen Yongnian was surrounded by a floral cloth six-fold screen, wearing a white cloth Clothes, sitting by the screen, with a round face, a short beard along the upper lip, and big-rimmed glasses. When Yang Xingyuan came in, he just nodded slightly, and pointed to a square stool in front of him, Ask someone to sit down. There was a registration form on the table. While looking at the list, he took the stethoscope on the table and stuffed the plugs of two rubber tubes into his ears. Yang Xingyuan knew that he needed to listen to his chest The one in front of him unbuttoned his clothes. He took the pulse-teaching head and pressed it on his chest, next to his breasts, and two assistants. He took off the pulse-sounding device and took a small tester. The thermometer was handed over to Yang Xingyuan. It took about two or three minutes. He took out the thermometer and looked at it in the sunlight. Then he took out the pen and pressed the copper ruler on the table. He took out a slip of paper, with English and Chinese characters written four or five lines horizontally, and said to Yang Xingyuan: "It doesn't matter, just take two bottles of potion and you'll be fine. "Yang Xingyuan said:" Is this a lung disease? "The doctor tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "Probably not. "When I was talking, I had already rang the bell, and called the guard to come in, handed him the matching list, and then said to him: "Chuan No. 12. "Yang Xingyuan looked like this. It took only six or seven minutes. The illness was over, so he had to go out. As soon as he went out, a doctor with a rotten leg came in. Yang Xingyuan asked the hospital staff: "How many doctors here? "The officer said: "It's our dean alone. "Yang Xingyuan said:" Internal medicine, surgery, pediatrics, Hualiu are all handled by your dean alone? "The hospital officer smiled and said:" Yes, it's just this morning when I'm busy. "Yang Xingyuan said: "How many numbers can you register in the morning? " The officer said: "The number is always forty or fifty." When he said this, Shi Kelian had already stepped forward and asked, "Has Mr. Yang finished it? It's really fast." Yang Xingyuan smiled and nodded, because : "Look at the benches in the corridor, there are still thirteen or four people sitting. Why don't he take a quick look, how can he finish reading it in two hours? No wonder there is an additional handling fee for the surgery department, because it takes a visit to see a surgeon. Several internal medicine departments are really a waste of time." Shi Kelian said: "The dean is famous, and this hospital is also famous, why is he so sloppy?" Yang Xingyuan said: "Because he is famous, his business is good. If the business is good, it is too late Be careful." Shi Kelian said: "Looking at the outside of the hospital, there is a big facade, but inside it is a doctor singing a one-handed show. What is Mr. Yang going to do?" Yang Xingyuan said: "My friends say this place is good, so I came all the way here. This Dr. Chen is capable, but he only took four or five minutes to say that he can diagnose my illness. I don't really believe it. Let's talk about it after taking this medicine." Yang Xingyuan While talking, I saw a bench at the end of the corridor, and I sat down as soon as I got close to it.Shi Kelian said: "Mr. Yang, looking at you, you are very tired. You haven't taken the medicine yet, have you? I'll get it for you, okay?" Yang Xingyuan thought it would be good to sit down for a while, so she took the money and asked her to go to the dispensing place Take medicine.She fetched the medicine, waited until Yang Xingyuan got into the car, handed the medicine bottle to him, and then hired a car to go home. When I got home, I went back to my grandmother's house all the time.Seeing that Mrs. Shi was still asleep, she kept silent. Even when he saw Yang Xingyuan just now, he wanted to tell her everything, so he didn't mention a word.By the way, he picked up a book and sat in front of the bed to read it.All the books she brought back from school were placed on a small table.There is also a small box, which contains some of my correspondence, bills and the like.At this time, I just reached out to the table to take it, only to see that the books were arranged unevenly, as if someone had moved them.Looking at the box again, the lid was not closed, and there was a slit exposed, and a section of the envelope was just exposed in that slit.My own things have always been kept well, why is it like this?Pulling off the cover, I saw that inside, the documents were in a mess, and all the files that were originally sorted had been changed.It is not clear, but they must have come to search for the documents.Thinking of this, I couldn't help myself sneering: "I'm not wrong at all, even if you check it. Even if there is something wrong, I put it away a long time ago, and will you check it? Who did it? Grandma must know, wait for her When she wakes up, she will definitely say, don't ask her first." So she felt relieved and didn't take it to heart. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Shi's illness worsened from this, and she was always unconscious when she fell asleep.Shi Kelian was in a hurry, let alone remember other things.But from that day on, when the Yu family saw her, they all sneered and became more and more fierce, even saying witty things to her face.Once, I went to the tea stove to flush water again, and passed behind the third aunt's wife's room.The third aunt could see clearly through the window. She raised her voice and said, "Now is the age of reform. Girls don't know anything, so they talk about free love first. They seem to be very honest when they meet ghosts. Turning their backs, Going in and out of taverns with her boyfriend, who knows. Girls want to go out to study, it’s all fake, but it’s true that they want to make boyfriends.” Hearing the voice of the third aunt, Skellian clearly scolded herself.Fortunately, I already knew that they had such gossip, but I ignored her.The third aunt said again: "To and fro, that's all, why write this kind of thing in the letter, aren't you afraid of wasting the pen and ink?" Hearing this, Shi Kelian's heart moved.Just checked my mail box, is that her?But I am confident that there is nothing wrong with me, and I don't have any documents that can be used as a basis for their words. Where did her words come from.But I can't ask her, so I have to.He returned to the room with a pot of water, opened the wooden box again, checked the letters, and remembered that there were two letters from Yang Xingyuan in it, but they had disappeared, so they must have taken them.This letter is full of high-sounding words and does not involve ambiguous matters, so there is nothing to say about it.If you want to catch my fault, unless you say that I should not correspond with men, I am not afraid of the rest.He checked the letter, leaned against the table, and stayed for a while after sending it.I saw Mrs. Shi lying on the bed, her eyes still closed, sleeping faintly.The two cheekbones are tall and straight, and the cheeks are more and more thin.Under the cheekbones, there was a faint layer of pale blush, which was just like the temperature increased and burned.A person sleeps under the quilt, and every time he breathes and breathes, his breasts vibrate so that the covering quilt also vibrates slightly.That's all, the patient looks fine.Otherwise, it would be unimaginable for the old man to fall asleep straight.Skellyn thought about it, because he had a grandmother, he had to live with others.I always want to work hard and find some career to support the elderly.Now that he has no grades at all, he has caused a lot of trouble, and the old man is also a candle in the wind.Thinking of this, my eyes became hot, and tears suddenly fell down. At this moment, when the door was pushed open, Yu Ruixiang stretched half of her body in.Asked softly: "Is grandma asleep?" Shi Kelian said: "I'm afraid the old man's illness is not good. He always sleeps and doesn't know how to wake up." Yu Ruixiang came in gently and said: "Cousin, old man My wife is sick, so be patient. You just pretend you didn't hear what they said." Shi Kelian said, "Where did you say that?" Yu Ruixiang said, "Why did you hide it from me? I was in the third aunt's room just now, and she yelled when she saw you passing by. I know you are very unhappy about what she said." Skellyn said, "I came to the house because of grandma. Otherwise, why should I bother you so shamelessly? Since the third aunt is not happy, I will move to the hospital with grandma today." Yu Ruixiang took her hand and said, "Look at you, this way You seem to be arguing with me. I mean it well, don't get me wrong. "Skellyn said: "My cousin is telling the truth, and I am telling the truth too.You think the kind of words that the third aunt said, I don't care if I hear it, but if the old man hears it, is it okay?It's better to move out, so as to save the old man from adding another layer of unhappiness. "Yu Ruixiang looked at the bed and said: "Idiot, people are like this, can they still move?" "Speaking of which, he smiled again, and said in a low voice: "You are not careful in your work, after all, you show a little bit of flaws. "When Shi Kelian heard about it, his face turned red, and he kept his face tight and said: "Speaking is talking, and a joke is a joke.You said, what tell me did I show? "Yu Ruixiang said:" You are always so unconvinced. "Yin took out a letter from his body. Shi Kelian saw that it was Yang Xingyuan who gave it to her. Then he sneered and said: "Is this considered to be giving away?Not necessarily? "Yu Ruixiang said: "The correspondence between men and women is nothing at all.But what do you write a few poems on this letter for no reason? "Schollen said:" There is no poem inscribed, where did you come from? "Yu Ruixiang smiled and said:" You are wrong.Why don't you tell me the truth? "So he took out the letter, showed the reverse side of the letter to Skellyn and said, "It's not, what is it? "When Shi Kelian saw it, it was a lined paper written in foreign languages, and two lines of words were written on it:" At that time, I was in a beautiful family, and the beauty was as delicate as a flower.Today... ". There is another line that reads "Tonight and Hexi, I met this beloved". On the other hand, it was a letter from Yang Xingyuan. Only then did I remember, yes, the letter from Yang Xingyuan a while ago, There was a piece of foreign language paper. However, at that time, when the letter on this side was finished, it was over, and it was still folded and stuffed into the envelope in a hurry. I never expected that there was any poem written on the other side of the letter paper. To say that this poem is It was written by another person, but there is no such reason, because the handwriting of this character is exactly the same as that of Yang Xingyuan, and there is no difference at all. But whether Yang Xingyuan is a serious person is another problem, and I am not with Yang Xingyuan. How could he ever get drunk once? Besides, he still avoided his official marriage in fear, so how could he use such understatement sentences to provoke him. So when he thought about it, he was dumbfounded. Yu Ruixiang thought she was dumbfounded. She was embarrassed, so it was difficult to continue talking. She smiled and said: "When a man writes a letter, he always tries his best to express himself, without any reservation, and it can't be your fault. "Schollen said:" To tell you the truth, the few lines he wrote were not mentioned by you today, and I will never know them in my life.What he meant, I could hardly guess, and I must write to him and ask him. "Yu Ruixiang said:" You really don't know?Then there is no need to ask others, it will be inconvenient to ask.I think it's not uncommon for friends to make a joke or two in their letters when they are familiar with each other. " Shi Kelian said: "Cousin, even if you don't believe me, it's even harder for other people to say that." Yu Ruixiang said: "Come on, let's take him out of this matter, why keep mentioning him? I Seeing grandma’s illness, it’s getting worse, so I should get another doctor to take a look.” Shi Kelian frowned and said, “I’m out of ideas now. I’d like to see Chinese medicine first, but it’s not good, so I’ll switch to western medicine. , Western medicine is still not good, and I still have to change to Chinese medicine. This way, if you don’t get sick, you will get sick after taking medicine. I think we should use Western medicine to treat it to the end!” Yu Ruixiang said: “We are separated People at the first level don't dare to make decisions. Since you mean so, then decide to do it like this." Speaking of this, the third aunt and Yu Ruixiang's father Yu Meicheng came.Yu Ruixiang's stepmother, Mrs. Yu also followed.Shi Kelian didn't meet them very often, but after returning to Yu's house this time, because Yu Meicheng often came to see her mother-in-law when she was ill, she saw them twice more.Yu Meicheng felt that her grandmother's death was even more pitiful, but she also said something dear twice.At this time, Shi Kelian went forward and called Uncle, but unexpectedly, Yu Meicheng's attitude changed greatly.He didn't ask Shi Kelian about the old man's illness, but he walked to the bedside and stroked Mrs. Shi's forehead.Turning around, he shook his head at the two wives and said, "In this way, the old man is useless. Let's spend a sum of money to prepare for the funeral. Rui Xiang, you sit in this room for a while, don't leave If there is any change, please come and tell me.' He said this, but his face was not turned to Shi Kelian, but the third concubine smiled at Yu Ruixiang: "Just sit here and don't rummaging through other people's things.There are some things that people want to keep secret. "Speaking, I walked with Yu Meicheng. Mrs. Yu didn't care, she seemed to come here to save face, she didn't make a sound, and followed her back and forth. Shi Kelian knew that these words were alluding to her, so she had no choice but to endure it If in the past, I tried my best to turn against them, I would have to say a few words. But my grandmother's illness is very serious, and I only hope that the old man will turn evil into good fortune. For such rumors, he has no choice but to let him. Yu Ruixiang sat with her After talking for two hours, first gossiping, then slowly talking about the letter. Later Yu Ruixiang said: "I heard Mei Shuangxiu say that Li Dongqing is going to be your matchmaker. Is this true?If it is true, I would agree. "Skellyn said:" My heart is already broken, but you still have the heart to joke with me. "Yu Ruixiang said:" I'm not joking with you, I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart.I've seen that Mr. Yang Xingyuan before, he seems to be a loyal young man.His ability to live is not bad, so there will be no problems.Grandma is so old, can you still rely on her for the rest of your life?If there is something wrong with her, your future will also have a destination.Otherwise, I wouldn't say this, grandma's illness is at its extreme, you have to make plans earlier.Today the cook went to the street to buy vegetables, and when he came back, he said... "Speaking of which, he looked at Shi Kelian and smiled again. Shi Kelian suddenly understood. Yes, I went to the hospital this morning to see Yang Xingyuan and sent him to the hospital. The car must have been hit by the cook. No wonder when I got home today, there was a burst of giggling behind me in the concierge. The public opinion they treated me was particularly bad today, probably because of this incident. He said sternly : "That's right, I visited Yang in the hospital today, and I'm confident it was a legitimate act. "Yu Ruixiang smiled and said:" You are really suspicious.It's out of good intentions that I tell you the truth like this, do you think I'm saying you're unfair? "Skellyn said:" I'm not talking about you, and I'm not talking about any one.但是这种行为，我是知道为社会所不能谅解的，那也只好由他了。 “余瑞香笑道：”你的心里正难受，不要再提这个了。坐在这里，也怪闷的，我们来下一盘象棋，混混时间。 “说着叫了老妈子取了棋子棋盘，就摆在床面前一张茶几上。史科莲道：”我心里乱极了，哪里还能安下心去下棋。 “余瑞香道：”原是以为心里乱，才要你来下棋，好混时间。 " 史科莲也是觉得无聊，只好由着她。但是下不到四五着棋，史科莲已经就把土象破了一半。余瑞香下了一个沉底炮去将军，史科莲只知道撑起士来，却不走士路，把士撑到象眼里。余瑞香道：“你是怎样走的？士走起直路来了。”史科莲两个手指头，夹着一个棋子，却不住的抖战。勉强笑道：“我实在心慌得厉害，没有法子下了”。说着，就把棋子一推，两只手伏在棋盘上，头又枕着两只胳膊，好象是要睡。 余瑞香见她这样，知道她心里已是难过万分，便不下棋了。将手推了一推她道：“不许只是想心事了。吃饭罢，我去叫把我的饭开到这里来，我们两个人吃。”史科莲正怕见余家人，她说在屋子里吃饭，正合其意。这一天，两个人吃饭在一屋里，谈话也在一屋里。十个月以来，姊妹们的感情生疏已极，这样一来，又似乎恢复原状了。 这天过去，病人依然是昏睡，没有大变动。到了次日清晨，便是阴云暗暗，不曾有日光放出。这已是七月下旬，西风吹将起来，阴天格外凉快。风吹在院子里树上，树叶子吹得沙沙作响。史科莲一肚皮心事，一早就醒了。身上只穿了一件单褂，便在院子里背靠着树，两手互相抱住，抬头看那树叶子翻动，却发了呆。伺候余瑞香姊妹的胡妈，正来问病，见史科莲一清早就靠着树发愣，也觉得她心里一定异常难过，不免也动了侧隐之心。便道：“史小姐，您老太太病了，您应该保重一点。 为什么这一早响，就出来站住。院子里又刮风又下雨，您不怕招凉吗？ “史科莲道：”哪里下了雨？ “胡妈道：”您不瞧瞧地上？ “史科莲低头一看，果然，院子里面的砖块，和花盆上的叶子，都已湿了。这里并排的两棵树，树荫底下，却依旧是干的。干湿显然，这里倒成了一个白圈圈。不觉失声道：”下雨了，我倒一点也不知道。 “于是走到村外抬头一看，那半空中的雨，细得象烟丝一般。风一吹，无千无万的小点，攒成一团，向人身上扑来，格外有一种凉气。史科莲一人自言自语的道：”斜风细雨，好凄凉的天气。 “胡妈听说道：”你说天气凉，为什么还穿了一件褂子，站在院子里招凉哩？凉了可真不好，进来吧？ “史科莲也觉手凉如铁，便带胡妈一路进去看史老太太。胡妈却通她换了一件褂子，另外还加上一件坎肩。史科莲笑道：”谁也不理会我会害病，要你这样挂心。这就冷了，在大雨里头拉车的，那不是人吗？ “胡妈还没有答话，史老太太在床上就说了。说道：”我不冷，倒是想点茶喝。 “史科莲听说，连忙伏到床沿上，连叫了几声奶奶。史老太太披着苍白的头发，微微睁开一线目光，哼了两声。史科莲道：”你老人家觉得心里舒服些吗？ " 史老太太在被里伸出一只枯蜡似的手，让她握着，微微的点了一点头，慢慢的拖着声音道：“好一点了，我要茶喝。”胡妈听她这话，早已斟了一杯温热的茶，在床边等着。于是史科莲托住了她的头，将茶送到她嘴边下。史老太太将嘴抿着茶杯，一直喝了大半杯茶，才睡下去。史科莲问要吃什么不要，她又说冲一点藕粉罢。史科莲见祖母的病已有转机，心中十分欢喜，高高兴兴的伺候。上午大夫没有来，也不曾去催，以为药水还有，大夫缓一个钟头来，也不要紧的。不料到了这天下午，史老太太依然是昏迷不醒。呼吸也慢慢的感到不灵，只是喘气。两点钟的时候，大夫来了，坐在床边拿着听脉器听了一会，那态度异常的冷静。将测温器放在史老太太嘴里停了一会，抽出来一看，依然还是不作声。史科莲贴着床柱，静静的站着，就禁不住问道：“先生，病不要紧吗？”大夫已经站起身来，有要走的样子，便道：“沉重多了。上了年纪的人，血气衰了，这也是自然的归宿。”说着一面向外走。 史科莲跟着出来问道：“不要给点药水喝吗？”大夫就停住了脚，说道：“本可以注射一针。但是老太太的病太沉重了，不注射也罢。”史科莲听了他这话，加倍的呆了，站在走廊下，一步移不动，眼泪如抛珠一般，由脸上直向下滚。也不知几时，余瑞香走到了她身后，抄住她的胳膊，说道：“你站在这儿哭做什么呢？你还是到屋子里去看啦。”史科莲哽咽着道：“据这大夫说，人是无用的了。我想还求求姑父，再找一个中医来瞧瞧看。明知道是不中用的了，尽尽心罢。”余瑞香见她这样，也是眼圈儿红红的。说道：“这个你放心。老人家事到临危，无论如何，医药钱是不会省的。我这就去说，马上请中医，你回房去罢。”史科莲听了，掏出手绢，勉强擦干眼泪，就悄悄的进了房。走到床面前，看看祖母还是昏迷的样子，那嗓子里的痰声，格外响得厉害了。余家三位太太，知道老人家是不行，也来看了两次。并吩咐两个老妈子，常川在屋子里看守。余佛香这一向子，是寄宿在西山一家亲戚的别墅里，得了电话，知道外祖母病重也回来了。史科莲虽然十分悲哀，幸而各事都有人料理。过了一会，果然请一位中医来了。中医按了一按脉，也没有开方就走了。 史科莲更觉无望，想起十余年来，一老一少，飘泊天涯，相依为命，不料到了现在，竟要分手。索性屋子里也不坐了，端了一张小方凳坐在走廊下，两手抱住膝盖，看着院子里树叶发愣，尽情的流眼泪。眼泪淌下来，并不去擦，由面孔上向下流，把两只膝盖上的衣服湿了一大片。这个时候，天气已经昏黑了。满院子都是濛濛的细雨烟，被风一吹，直刮上走廊来。人身上也不觉有雨扑了来，但是有一阵一阵寒气袭人罢了。院子里树叶上细雨积得多了，也半天的工夫，滴一点雨点到地下来。这种雨点声，最是让人听了心里难受。史科莲坐在走廊下哭了一阵，不知道屋子里的病人怎样，又擦干眼泪进来。到了晚上，史老太太醒了过来便问几点钟了。史科莲道：“奶奶，九点钟了。你老人家……”说到这里哽咽住了。史老太太喘着气，举着枯蜡也似的手，对床面前站的余佛香姊妹招了一招。二人便都挤上前，伏着床沿上，叫了一声姥姥。史老太太道：“好孩……子，我我……不成了……看你死去的母亲面子，照应这妹妹一点罢。”她姊妹俩听了，也禁不住流下泪来，各执着老人家一只手，说了“您放心”三字，就说不出来。余佛香掉过身来对胡妈道：“赶快请老爷来，外老太太不好了。”一声说完，这屋子里已哭成一片，一会儿余家人都来了，大家围着床，史科莲倒挤不上前。她抱着史老太太睡觉的一个旧枕头，倒在旁边一张小藤榻上，只是乱滚。哭也哭不出声，将脸偎旁着枕头，用手抚摸着枕头，口里不住的叫道：“奶奶呀，我的奶奶呀，可怜的奶奶呀！我只剩一个人了，怎样得了呢？”大家看她哭得这样惨恸，就有止住了哭来劝她的。史科莲哪里禁得住，只是嚎一阵，流泪一阵，她足哭了两个钟头，一时心里发慌，竟是晕了过去。大家便抬着她在隔壁屋子去睡下。 史科莲醒了过来，已经有一点多钟了。睁开眼一看，并没有和奶奶睡在一个屋子里，不知如何睡到这里来了，也不知奶奶的病怎样了。在枕头上犹豫了一会，这才想起祖母已经去世，自己是哭晕过去了的。一阵心酸，又流下泪来。这屋子里是向来史老太太抽旱烟袋和人讲闲话的地方，临窗一张躺椅，就是她常坐在那上面的，现在只有椅子，却不见人，越发是酸上心来。屋子里并没有多人。只有两个老妈子，共围着一个大柳条篮子，在那里折金纸锭儿。柳条篮上，却针插着一根佛香。她们一声不言语，只是折了金纸锭儿，就往篮子里扔。这个时候，雨已变大了，风吹着一阵一阵的雨点洒在树叶上，哗啦哗啦作响，让人听了，心里更加凄惨。史科莲哼了两声，便坐了起来，扶着床柱，就想要走。老妈子看见，便道：“史小姐，你躺躺罢，你哭得晕过去了，这就好了吗？”史科莲道：“不要紧的。”于是扶着壁子走，一步一步走到间壁屋子里来。史老太太睡床，已下了帐子，用一床被将她盖了，脸上另盖着一块红手巾。床面前，摆了一张茶几。茶几上一对烛台，插上两校高大的白蜡。有一个小磁香炉，斜插着一束信香，一口大瓦盆烧满着纸钱灰，将屋子里酿成一种奇异的气味。史科莲一眼看见老太太那个绿色的眼镜盒子，还挂在壁上，便伏到老太太床脚头，又放声哭了起来。她就是这样停了又哭，哭了又停，足闹了两天两夜。余家因为官场中人，虽然是个外老太太，也不能不照俗例办丧事。一直到送三之后，史科莲才不是那样混哭。然而嗓子哑了，眼睛也肿了，人更是瘦得黄黄的，一点血色没有。混一下子，便是头七。过了头七，余家便不能让棺材停在家里，次日就出殡，将灵柩停在道泉寺。余家并无多人送殡，只派余佛香姊妹，共坐一辆汽车前来。灵柩在庙里安妥当了，史科莲又是一头大哭，哭得人又晕过去。余瑞香看得她伤感过甚，已经有了病，便自行作主，送她到美国医院去医治。
