I sell demon meat in the city

Chapter 152 Death
"Jiu'er, why isn't your sister-in-law awake yet?"

"Don't worry, brother, it's alright. Your sister-in-law will wake up during the party."

"You, you wipe the blood off her face, she's a clean person."

"It's wiped clean, it's gone."

"That hair"

"It's very neat."

On the way to the hospital, Meng Laoda kept talking. Seeing his wife's pale face, weakly leaning against Xiao Jiu's arms, the old man's tears streamed down his face, and he kept blaming himself, "It's all my fault. I didn't like wearing the hearing aid Lanlan bought me, otherwise I wouldn't have been unable to hear the sounds outside, and you, my sister-in-law, would have gone out alone. It's all my fault."

The three people in the car felt terrible after hearing this.

Meng Jiu wiped her face and said sullenly, "Big brother, if you put it that way, the person who should be blamed the most is me. I shouldn't have returned the family tree and those old objects to you after I looked at them. It was those things that attracted those two people. It's my fault."

"What's it to you? I'm the eldest. Those things were passed down from our grandfather to our father, and then our father gave them to me. I'm not dead yet, how can I let you take them?"

In fact, Meng Jiu's original intention was to destroy all those things, because there was no point in keeping them.

But Boss Meng didn't allow it.

He was the eldest son and was raised by his grandfather when he was young, so his relationship with his grandfather was naturally incomparable to that of his younger brothers.

Meng Chi is the grandfather's father. Although he rarely mentions those two words, he still occasionally brings them up. "Your great-grandfather was my first teacher when I was five years old." "Your great-grandfather was easy to talk to, but being a pushover isn't a good thing. You can't be like that when you grow up." "Your great-grandfather was very capable. He said he worked so hard and was so capable, so what if I'm a little useless? Couldn't he protect me?"
Meng Laoda doesn't remember many things anymore, but recently, for some reason, the words his grandfather once said have inexplicably come to mind again.

This made him even more reluctant to give these old things to his ninth brother, let alone destroy them.

He thought they were just old things, nothing to worry about, and he would keep them as a memento. He planned to bury them all with him when he died.

If he had known these things would one day bring disaster to his elderly wife, he would never have kept them.
The car arrived at Qingzhou Hospital and stopped at the emergency room entrance. Meng Yanxu quickly got out of the car, opened the back door, took Grandma from Grandpa Jiu's arms, and ran into the hospital.

When Meng Jiu helped the eldest Meng, who could barely walk, inside, the old lady Meng had already been wheeled into the emergency room, while Meng Yanxu waited outside.

"Jiu'er ah"

"Brother, don't worry, sister-in-law will be fine. She's usually so healthy; she just bumped her head. It's nothing, nothing at all."

He was advising both his elder brother and himself.

But Boss Meng was terribly panicked. He grabbed Meng Jiu's hand and said in a trembling voice, "Call Lanlan and Zichen, tell them to come over, and Xiao Qi too. I haven't seen that child in so long, and you won't listen to me."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen. I'll call them right now, I'll call them right now."

Meng Jiu took out her phone and told Meng Yanxu to take care of her great-grandfather, while he went to the end of the corridor to call Meng Shulan.

Meng Shulan was taken aback when she received the call. "Dad, explain yourself! Who hurt my aunt?"

"It was the Meng family. They went to your aunt's house and ransacked things. Your aunt heard the noise and came out to check. I don't know the exact details, but when your uncle came out, she had already collapsed on the ground, her head covered in blood. She just got into the emergency room." "Grandpa? Grandpa?"

Before Meng Jiu could finish speaking, he suddenly heard Meng Yanxu shout loudly. He turned his head and saw that Meng Laoda, who had been sitting in the chair, was lying on the ground with his face pale and his eyes closed. However, he was caught halfway down by Meng Yanxu.

At the same time, he shouted, "Nurse, nurse, doctor, someone has fainted over here!"

Meng Jiu took off running in that direction, forgetting even the phone she was still holding that was still in use.

A nurse called the doctor over, and the first thing the doctor said made Meng Jiu's head buzz: "Why is there no heartbeat? Quick, get her to the emergency room."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the two elderly people in the ward lay on adjacent beds, looking at each other, and slowly closed their eyes.

Low sobs filled the room. A moment later, Meng Shuhui, the eldest son of the Meng family, who was three years older than Meng Jiu, knelt down with a thud and let out the first wail, "Dad, Mom!"

The sounds of weeping echoed in the ward. The Meng family was large, and the eldest son, Meng, was like a brother and father to his younger brothers, as was the old lady. So many members of the Meng family arrived at the hospital in the afternoon, so many that they couldn't all stand in the ward and most of them were in the corridor outside.

Hearing the crying coming from the ward, the people guarding outside couldn't help but sob softly, and for a moment the whole floor was filled with the sound of weeping.

Meng Shulan stood beside the old lady, bent down and lifted her upper body, gently combing her silver hair with her fingers. Tears fell and landed on the old lady's head.

Her mother was in poor health, and she suffered a severe hemorrhage at birth. Although her father took meticulous care of her, he was still a man and had to earn money and take care of the farm work. So, her aunt took care of her and her mother for almost half the day.

Before her mother passed away, she held her hand and told her that when she grew up, she must take good care of her aunt and treat her as her own grandmother.

She always remembered it and truly regarded the old woman as her own grandmother.

Although she has been living in Qingshui Town for most of the years, she still makes time to return to Yunmeng Village every week. Perhaps because Meng Jiu makes them demon meat soup, the two old people seem to be getting healthier and healthier.

Meng Shulan was very pleased, thinking that the elderly couple might live past one hundred years old.

But who could have predicted that they, who were about to turn ninety, would suddenly...
She even begged Yu Qingge if there were any elixirs that could save them.

Yu Qingge shook her head, saying that their time was up and there was no cure!

Even though they had been eating demon flesh before, it wasn't an elixir of immortality, and it wasn't effective for everyone. Being over eighty years old and ordinary people, they couldn't absorb most of the essence from the demon flesh.

Meng family.

A man in his thirties bowed and handed the thin family genealogy to Meng Wenming. Meng Wenming took it, flipped through it, and then turned to hand it to the old man sitting at the head of the table, saying, "Uncle, I can confirm that this is our Meng family genealogy. However, many pages have been torn out, leaving only the page of our ancestor Meng Chi."

Therefore, apart from the cover and cover page, the genealogy only has one page in the middle.

Chief Meng stared at that page for a long time, then sighed, closed the genealogy book, and put it aside.

He looked up at the man and asked, "Is there anything else?"
