I heard you like me

Chapter 306 Tears Like Rain 2
So soon, the mourning hall has already been set up.

The portrait uses a photo of Ning Shouzheng with no gray hair, his facial features are sharp, and he is quite heroic.

However, Ruan Liuzheng remembered the picture of him building a paradise for Ning Yu and Ning Hui in the back garden, with all white hair and a stooped back, showing his old appearance.

At that moment, I couldn't bear it any longer, and tears flowed down my face.

After all, this is also her father.

With tears in my eyes, I respectfully offered three sticks of incense.

When inserting the incense into the incense burner, she caught a glimpse of Ning Zhiqian's hands shaking, but the incense did not insert or go in, but fell out. When she looked closely, it was because his hands were burned by the incense, leaving black A black dot.

She knelt down to pick it up and handed it to him to insert it again.

The elders came to dress her and Ning Zhiqian with heavy filial piety.It was cold outside, so she went in to look for Wen Yi, while Ning Zhiqian stayed outside.

I didn't see Ning Yu and Ning Hui, I thought they were already asleep, Wen Yi was sitting on the chair, her eyes were red and swollen, and the traces of crying were obvious, while Ning Xiang was sitting next to grandma, holding grandma in her small arms, leaning against grandma body.

Seeing her, Ning Xiang rushed over with tears in her eyes, choked up and called her, "Mom..."

The tears were still wet on her face, she knelt down and touched his face, "Ning Xiang is good, go to sleep, mommy is here to accompany grandma."

Ning Xiang shook her head, "Grandma is crying..."

"I know." She kissed him on the forehead, "Mom stays with grandma, you go and help mom look after younger siblings, okay?"

Ning Xiang then nodded, "Okay."

Ruan Liuzheng took Ning Xiang to sleep, and also looked at Ning Yu Ninghui who was already asleep. The two children didn't understand anything and were sound asleep.

Ning wanted to crawl to sleep next to Ning Yu, blinking his eyes, and asked softly, "Mom, will grandpa never wake up again?"

For children, the difference between death and falling asleep may be gradually understood with the passage of time.

But Ruan Liuzheng couldn't bear to give the answer.

"Mom, I want grandpa to play with us." Ning Xiang's tears rolled down his eyes.

Alas, she sighed, no matter what, Ning Shouzheng's love for these three children is real, probably because of the bad relationship with his son, maybe even the love for his son is put on his grandchildren, but , Grandpa can no longer play with them.

She thought for a while, and reached out her hand to catch the teardrop that fell from Ning Xiang's eyes, "Ning Xiang, everyone has a time when they will never wake up. Grandpa is gone and won't play with you anymore, but Grandpa will return it to you." There are many left behind, and those will stay with you forever and grow up with you."

Hearing that Grandpa could never wake up again, Ning Xiang started to cry, "What did Grandpa leave behind?" He turned over and went to look for it.

She pressed Ning Xiang's shoulder, "What grandpa left for you is invisible, it is love, grandpa loves you so much, dotes on you, even though grandpa is gone, this love will not disappear, it will be passed down, For each of us, we will love others with the love of grandpa, can you understand?"

Ning Xiang half understood, still sad, but nodded with tears.

She remembered something, and stuffed Ning Xiang's exposed arm into the quilt, "Continue to love Dad for Grandpa, okay?"

"Yeah!" Ning Xiang lay down obediently, "I love my father, my mother, my grandma, my younger brothers and sisters, and this family."

"Hey, go to sleep." Her main point was to love her father.

Kissed Ning Xiang on the forehead, and then kissed Ning Yu and Ning Hui's cheeks before going out, found Wen Yi, and stayed by Wen Yi's side.

Wen Yi's cousin came over, pityed them for coming all night, and gave her a bowl of hot noodles. She thanked her, but she didn't have any appetite, so she put it aside.

Wen Yi turned to look at her, with tears streaming from his red eyes.

"Mom." She hugged her mother-in-law gently.

Wen Yi leaned his head against her and wept softly, "How could it be so fast?"

That is to say, why did you leave so quickly?
"I thought..." Wen Yi's tears flowed down, "I thought there was still a long life..."

Ruan Liuzheng couldn't help feeling sad, how long is a lifetime?Sometimes the years are so long that you can't wait to turn your head gray in a flash, and sometimes, just a blink of an eye, a lifetime will pass by so accidentally.

Since they came back from the desert, the relationship between Wen Yi and Ning Shouzheng has improved somewhat, especially since Ning Hui and Ning Yu were born, Ning Shouzheng spent a lot more time at home, spending time with his grandson and granddaughter, even if it was just on the sidelines Looking at it, the eyes are also very peaceful.

And the relationship between Wen Yi and him is also so peaceful, Wen Yi no longer looked at him with a look of misery and resentment like before, no evasion, no indifference, but no affection, everything was indifferent , but because of having Ning Yu and his brother and sister, he is really happy from the bottom of his heart.

At this time, she said, she thought her life was still very long.It should be said that there is still a lot of time left in life to slowly run in with Ning Shouzheng. Maybe one day I will let go, or maybe I will never let go, but there will always be a day, and there will be a day when I keep to a result, but never Think, this day came so fast.

Seeing Wen Yi's tears, her eyes were full of tears, she wiped her mother-in-law's tears with a tissue, and choked up, "Mom, Dad, he knows, he knows..."

Kindness and resentment, bumps and bumps, love and hatred, entanglement for decades, people go and lights out, take away, take away, can't deny that this person was once the most important thing in life.

"He went there early in the morning, saying that he had experience. When he was a child, he went to the mountains to catch birds and squirrels. Squirrels like to come out early in the morning. However, they went all day and did not come back. The family went up the mountain to look for him and found a whole body. He's bloody, unconscious..." Wen Yi cried until he was out of breath.

Ruan Liuzheng's tears fell down big and big, and she also hugged Wen Yi sobbing hard.

"He only left me three words, I'm sorry, he will only say these three words to me in his life..." After Wen Yi finished speaking, he could not say anything else, leaned on her shoulder, and kept crying.Either cry for him, or cry for this life...

sorry……

Why do people only have these three words at the end of their life?Why put yourself in this situation?Why do you have to make a mistake before you know you can't make a mistake?
He didn't stay in his hometown for too long. On the third day, when Ning Shouzheng's body was cremated, Wen Yi cried uncontrollably.

All the relatives from the Beijing side came here. All the brothers of the Ning family included other relatives and friends, but Ning Zhiqian was the only son who had not slept a wink for three days and was busy with various funeral matters. He even went back and forth between Beijing and his hometown for two days. However, Ruan Liuzheng never saw him shed tears.

Immediately afterwards, the family returned to Beijing with Ning Shouzheng's ashes.

Along the way, there were two women and three children. Among them, Wen Yi was still very weak. In just three days, Wen Yi had haggarded a lot, as if he had aged several years.After hating her all her life, she also loved her all her life. In the end, without the person she hated and loved, half of her life seemed to be taken away.

Although they went back with relatives, Wen Yi had to take care of the babysitters, and Ning Zhiqian was mainly taking care of them along the way.The bewildered him when he came here has changed, and he has returned to the calm, self-possessed, methodical Ning Zhiqian.

Then, after the burial of the ashes and other follow-up matters were completed one by one, Ning Shouzheng truly disappeared from this world.Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, all ashes to dust.

With one person missing, the Ning family's house felt even more spacious for no reason.

Sometimes it’s so strange. Ning Shouzheng was away from home for a long time (later I learned that he went up to the mountain to worship the Buddha and listen to Zen every day). Block, no matter how full it is.

Probably, being there and being at home are two different things.Although not at home, as long as this person is present, it is complete.

In the dead of night, the children were so tired that they fell asleep, but Wen Yi was forced to close his eyes after Ruan Liuzheng coaxed him for a long time.

After comforting her mother-in-law, she went back to her room.

The room smelled of cigarettes.

He has never smoked, and is sitting by the window at the moment, with an open pack of cigarettes on the side, and a few cigarette butts in the ashtray.

Without saying anything, she walked behind him and put her arms around him.

He had a feeling, and stroked her forearm lightly, "Go to sleep."

"Yeah," she said.

His breath was full of smoke, entangled in her breath.

To her, it was an unfamiliar breath.

She raised her head, greeted the smell of smoke, and opened her arms, absorbing all his emotions.

He leaned on her shoulder obediently, and then squeezed deeper.

At that moment, he was leaning on her.

I have been tired for several days, so tired that I can't say anything, smelling the warm and familiar faint fragrance on her body, I feel sleepy, and gradually become a little confused, my consciousness is floating, as if I am sinking and floating in the water boat.

Subconsciously encircled her, and her body was close to her. In his vague consciousness, he only knew that what he was holding was his support and the direction of a boat floating in the water.

She kissed him lightly on the forehead, combed his hair lightly, and said to herself: go to sleep.

He hasn't said many things to her yet, but she understands that probably everyone wants to say it. She thought that a lifetime is very long...

Yes, I thought that life is very long, so many things can be done slowly, and many things can be said slowly, but I never thought about it. Those things that I have never done, but I will never have the opportunity to do it, and I will never have the opportunity to say the things I have never said. Moreover.

Flowers bloom and fall, vegetation flourishes and withers, the power of time.No one can stop growing and getting old.

When Ning Shouzheng left, he was often not used to it. Even Ruan Liuzheng would occasionally think during the meal that it was time to ask Dad to eat, but he stayed there in a flash. Where is this person?

With the passage of time, this feeling of vacancy has gradually faded away. This person who was deliberately ignored at home gradually really only exists in memory, and the imprint in everyone's memory is still different.

Ning thought that the person in his memory was just his grandfather who loved him, but he didn't know whether Wen Yi and Ning Zhiqian's memories were more tender or more unbearable, while some people, such as Ning Yu and Ning Hui, had more There is no such person, although, this person really loved them, and even died because of their reasons. To them, grandpa is just a black and white photo on the wall.
