490 Atonement and Punishment
People in Puhai say that when an individual is old, he can leave a series of footprints. He puts a mark on the hearts of a few people who wear or roar. Then a burst of noise. When the dust settles, the image slowly fades, and then it is slowly forgotten by the people you know. This world will never stop turning just because someone is missing.
Two days after the funeral, Ni Jianguo's health seemed to get worse and worse. Ni Shang sent him to the hospital for examination, saying that it was just an extremely mental depression and there were no other lesions. However, according to the doctor's advice, he opened a ward to deliver saline and condition it.
When she returned home, she sat alone in the living room. Her mother's portrait of a black veil was still hanging on the wall. Lin Mo had been ordered by her to go home to rest. Ni Shang looked around and felt extremely sad, but she seemed to be unable to cry. It seemed that there was a petrified thing in her heart, blocking it, making it difficult for her breathing.
Yes, my mother left, and my father needed to take care of her. From then on, I was no longer the one who was pampered and cared for, but the one who took care of others and took on the burden of the family. Ni Shang thought this way and tried to give herself more fighting spirit.
She knew that she had been sleeping for less than three hours for several nights. But her head was sober and she didn't feel sleepy at all. She forced herself to think about some specific things, what else should be done after the disaster, and what else was not handled well. Because only by filling my mind with these business things can I not have too much time to go through the random thoughts.
What will happen in the future? She even refused to think about it. What she has to do now is to handle the things behind her mother properly, then take care of her father, let him go through the most difficult period, and slowly cheer up, and then we are the only two of us who depend on each other for life.
The inpatient department of the Fifth People's Hospital of the City.
Ni Jianguo lay on the bed and heard someone coming in, but he didn't open his eyes. I don't know when he became a hot commodity in the bureau. During his wife's farewell ceremony, Director Kong personally arrived and brought several major leaders in the bureau. Not to mention his subordinates in the department who had dealt with other departments. After being hospitalized in the fifth hospital, there were endless people visiting him.
Ni Shang followed the doctor's advice and asked Ni Jianguo to be hospitalized for observation. Ni Jianguo did not object. The main reason he accepted was that he was afraid of facing his daughter's sad, tired, and strong eyes. Although his wife's car accident was a natural disaster, I did not kill Boren, and Boren died because of me. It was not difficult for him to guess why his wife went to Longzhong. He was sad and wanted to find a place to relieve his mood, or because he had not yet thought about how to talk to his daughter about this.
In addition to sadness and regret, Ni Jianguo felt the only thing that was glad that Ni Shang obviously did not know the cause and effect of all this. She looked at herself, without saying a word, and could understand her eyes: Dad, now we are the only one who depends on each other for life.
When facing his daughter's sad and caring eyes, Ni Jianguo felt his heart was blocked, as if he was breathless. For a few moments, he couldn't help but want to tell her the truth and tell her the conversation before Bai Bingyan left. But he tried hard to restrain himself. Although the more he restrained, the more guilty, the more fearful he felt in his heart, the less he didn't know how to look directly into her eyes.
Finally, in the middle of the room, he felt that his breathing seemed to have stopped. His eyes turned dark and he fell down.
Ni Jianguo opened his eyes and was stunned for a moment. He shook his head vigorously and saw clearly the man Yijiang Zhihan. Jiang Zhihan looked solemn. He put a pack of things like nutritional tonics on the cabinet at the bedside. Without waiting for hello, he sat down on the stool beside the bed.
Ni Jianguo looked at him, but in fact he had been observing him for several days. He sat there, his facial features and expressions were much more mature than when he was in his second year and third year, but his attitude of doing things his own way was as usual.
The two looked at each other indifferently for a long time.
Jiang Zhihan opened his eyes in seconds and said lightly: "Compared with life and death, what happened before us is too trivial."
Three or four years ago, what Ni Jianguo hated Jiang Zhihan the most was that he always put on an air of negotiations with him, and he did not have the awareness of a 16 or 17-year-old high school student. But today, his thoughts were strangely gone. Did he not have the qualification to talk to him equally? A joke!
Ni Jianguo pursed his lips, "Director Kong and the others" were you greeted?"
Jiang Zhihan looked at her, "I thought Aunt Bai liked a lively ceremony." This was very consistent with Ni Jianguo's understanding of his wife.
Ni Jianguo stared at him, "Do you know Sun Fengshan?"
Jiang Zhihan said: "Aunt Bai accidentally mentioned the circumspect
Ni Jianguo probably realized something and opened his mouth. There was a key question that he didn't ask Yi Xunshu's story about the different body clams. It was probably because Jia's self-esteem was watching Edo Han.... He laughed at you, my mother often met?
Jiang Zhihan said: "It's not very often, it's only two or three times a year."
Ni Jianguo was silent.
Jiang Zhihan said, "I'm here today, and I'd like to ask you a question." Looking at Ni Jianguo, he said lightly: "A week before Aunt Bai's birthday, a friend gave me two tickets to the Russian National Ballet performing in Yancheng, and I transferred it to Aunt Bai. As a result, she said, "You are too busy with work and Ni Shang is not at home, and I happen to have something to go to Yancheng, so I went there together. That day, she was very happy, especially when she saw several meritorious veteran actors, they were all
They used to admire them and used them as role models. After returning from Yancheng, Aunt Bai mentioned them to me. They used to have some small-sized black and white photos of dancing, which were a long time ago, and were afraid that they would not be able to be saved in the future. I asked someone and found a friend who had a professional photo studio under him, which could be remade photos, and the quality was very good. Two days before Aunt Bai had an accident, we made an appointment to meet. She gave me all the photos and agreed that I would take her the remade photos in two days.
Jiang Zhihan stopped and continued, "In other words, two days before the accident, she seemed to have no intention of going to Longzhong. Why did she suddenly change her mind?"
Ni Jianguo looked at him for a while, and "I" didn't know. This is very important to you."
Jiang Zhihan nodded, "That afternoon I saw her, Aunt Bai said she was going to see a friend soon. After a few words, she left in a hurry. She said that the friend hadn't seen her for a while, and suddenly called her, and it seemed that there was something particularly important. I asked the people from the Cultural Bureau that she had nothing to do with her work in Longzhong.
If you and Ni Shang don’t know why she suddenly wanted to hit Longzhong, I thought that she suddenly changed her itinerary and had something to do with her friend.”
Ni Jianguo stared at Jiang Zhihan, "All people are gone, is this very important?"
Jiang Zhihan nodded, "Although Aunt Bai encountered a natural disaster, it was impossible to do anything about it. But there was a reason for asking her to go to Longzhong. This time, Ni Shang invited almost all her mother's old friends and classmates who had been decades. I kept waiting for that person to come out to say that, it was really unfortunate. I asked her to go to Longzhong, but I never thought that such a thing happened? But no one came out."
Ni Jianguo looked at Jiang Zhihan and said nothing.
Jiang Zhihan sighed, "Maybe, I will know the reason one day. I was still there yesterday. I will be gone today." I am very unwilling to give up." He stood up and said gently, "Please take good care of yourself, I'll leave first."
Ni Jianguo opened his mouth and felt that he could not say anything.
Jiang Zhihan walked out of the room and took him carefully to the door.
He walked out quickly, cursing in his heart, saying, I want to punish you, I will hang a sword on your head. Let you guess who that false friend is all day long, let you live in the fear and worry that has been exposed,
If I need atonement, you have ten times more than me, and if you still have a trace of conscience,
Do you want to hide it from Beishang? Well, for her. I can only be your accomplice for the time being. But in a world where she doesn't know, you shouldn't escape the punishment you deserve.
A week after the funeral, Ni Jianguo had already returned home. But his health was still not good and he was bedridden all day long. The Education Bureau approved him for two weeks' leave and asked him to rest and recuperate at home.
On this day, several of Ni Shang's friends gathered at her house at the same time. The aftermath matters related to Bai Bingyan were basically completed. Zhang Wei went to help Ni Shang save the gifts received from the funeral and took her passbook. Lin Mo came to see her sister. Xue Jingjing and Ruan Fangfang came every day these days, while Jiang Zhihan and Wu Yin accompanied Wu Siyi to say goodbye to Ni Shang.
After Wu Siyi's funeral, she went to Yancheng, where the company had some business to deal with. Last night, she returned to Zhongzhou overnight and asked Feiyangcheng again this afternoon. The company's business was too busy. There was still half a day left in the middle, so she called Jiang Zhihan to say goodbye to Ni Shang.
Those who helped Ni Shang survive this most difficult week were the contributions of the friends around her. Zhang Wei, Xue Jingjing, Lin Mo, and Ruan Fangfang were almost always by her this week, and they didn't say much comfort, because they all knew that those empty words were also weak. But they silently helped her handle all the affairs, brought her a glass of water, and gave her an encouraging look and a smile of support. Ni Shang saw it in her eyes and remembered it in her heart, not knowing that she could repay her as much as she was in the year. Thank you for your support! Ao Yuekuang Shan Xunshu's mustard umbrella
