Chapter 102 Old events

   "Dad, Mom, I'm back!" As soon as he got home, Zhong Shi put down his luggage and shouted towards the huge house. On weekdays, when he came home, Zhong Jianjun and Liu Lan would always come over to ask about his health, but this time he didn't see them.

   "Uncle Bao, what happened?" Zhong Shi was surprised to find that the house was deserted. He asked Uncle Bao, the servant who took his luggage.

   "Master, something happened to the old man recently, and the old man and his wife are accompanying him in the hospital!" Uncle Bao took Zhong Shi's luggage casually, patted Zhong Shi's clothes, and replied carefully.

   "What? My grandpa is sick?" Zhong Shi was shocked, and he asked hastily, "What happened to the old man, why didn't he inform me?"

   "Master and Madam didn't let you be notified. The old man has been hospitalized for a while, so you should go and have a look, young master." Uncle Bao said softly.

   "Okay, get me a car right away!"

  …

  In a private hospital, Zhong Shi saw Zhong Fangzhuo with a sallow complexion. The old man was lying in the ward sleeping, while Zhong Jianguo and others were talking quietly in the suite outside.

   This is a 1,000-foot-sized ward with elegant decoration. You can also see Victoria Harbor through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The slight sea breeze blows over from time to time, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. Naturally, such a ward is expensive, costing thousands of Hong Kong dollars every day.

   This hospital was found by Liao Chengde. When Zhong Shi was away, Liao Chengde basically took care of all the affairs of the Zhong family. This was of course Zhong Shi's order before leaving Hong Kong, but it was more because Liao Chengde's familiarity with Hong Kong far surpassed that of all the Zhong family members.

  With all the calculations, it has only been two years since the Zhong family came to Hong Kong. When the family first came to Hong Kong, they basically didn’t go out very much. Language communication was a very big problem. After the first few months, the Zhong family learned a few words of Cantonese for daily communication, and then began to slowly started going out.

The old man started to feel unwell three months ago. There was nothing wrong with it at first, but in September, his whole body seemed sluggish. Only then did the brothers Zhong Jianguo and Zhong Jianjun pay attention to it, and hurriedly sent the old man to the hospital for a while. Afterwards, it was sent to a private hospital, but after checking and checking, nothing serious was found. The doctor just told them that the old man had a knot in his heart and asked them to enlighten them.

  The members of the Zhong family immediately took turns to persuade the old man repeatedly, but the old man just didn't tell the crux of his heart, which made the family helpless and frowning all day long. Fortunately, the old man was not in danger for a while, and the people of this big family did not tell Zhong Shi who was far away in Europe.

   "Dad, what's wrong with grandpa?" When Zhong Shi pushed away from the ward, he found that not only his parents, but also Zhong Jianguo and his wife were also in the suite outside the ward.

   "Zhong Shi, you're back?" Zhong Jianjun was taken aback when he saw Zhong Shi appear, and then a look of joy appeared on his face. He and Zhong Jianguo looked at each other, and the two brothers nodded in unison.

  The two brothers had already made plans in their hearts. The people who can untie the old man's knot now are none other than his grandchildren, especially Zhong Shi as the key. Although they didn't know exactly what Zhong Shi had done in the past few years, they knew that Zhong Shi's business was very big after seeing Liao Chengde running around.

Like when they were in the mainland, their life was basically a poor state, but since Zhong Yi and Zhong Shi went to Hong Kong several times, their family life has improved significantly. First, they bought a lot of home appliances, and then moved to the city , moved to a metropolis like Hong Kong two years ago, lived in a spacious and bright villa, and even had a few servants at will. In the past, they would never have dared to imagine such a life.

This kind of change happened after Zhong Shi, who had no purpose in the past, had a high fever. The brothers Zhong Jianguo and Zhong Jianjun also discussed it in private, but they never imagined that Zhong Shi today is no longer the Zhong Shi of the past. up.

  The two adults discussed for a long time, and finally decided to treat Zhong Shi as a person who can sit on an equal footing with them. Originally, a person of Zhong Shi's age was just a half-year-old child, basically growing up under the blessing of his parents. But Zhong Shi's current achievements have long been beyond the comprehension of Zhong Jianguo and Zhong Jianjun, which is why they treat Zhong Yi and Zhong Shi differently.

   "Your grandfather has depression in his heart. The doctor said that there is no major physical problem, as long as it can be resolved." Zhong Jianjun called Zhong Shi aside and explained the reason of the matter in detail.

   While he was explaining, Zhong Jianguo was also standing beside them, sighing unceasingly. It was obvious that they had done a lot of work, but unfortunately it was ineffective.

  As for Fu Hongzhuang and Liu Lan, they were looking at the three men not far away, with anxiety in their eyes.

   "Ah? What's on Grandpa's mind?" Zhong Shi was stunned for a moment. He looked at his father Zhong Jianjun and then at his uncle Zhong Jianguo. They both shook their heads, obviously they didn't know either.

   "We guess, it might be because of the move, or because of your grandma, or maybe there are other reasons, but if Dad refuses to say it, there's nothing we can do about it."

   "Yes, Zhong Shi, why don't you persuade him. He loved you the most when you were a child, maybe you can let the old man say it."

   "Okay, I'll try." Zhong Shi nodded, gave Liu Lan and Fu Hongzhuang a reassuring look in the distance, and tiptoed into the ward.

The ward inside has a space of 50 square meters. There is a large hospital bed in the middle of the room. Zhong Fangzhuo is lying on the bed and sleeping soundly. The screen on the unnamed instrument was flashing several data all the time, and there were several buttons of different colors on the bedside, which should be used for emergency calls.

  Zhong Shi walked to the hospital bed, looked at Zhong Fangzhuo with a sallow complexion and a thin face, and felt only waves of guilt in his heart. He wanted to send his family to Hong Kong before, ignoring some inherent thoughts of the elderly. In fact, in the minds of many people, the idea that the homeland is hard to leave is deeply ingrained, and there is no way to get rid of it. If anything happened to Zhong Fangzhuo this time, Zhong Shi would have to bear the blame.

  Maybe because he slept lightly, or maybe he was awakened by the movement outside, Zhong Fangzhuo slowly opened his eyes, and found that Zhong Shi appeared in front of his bed, and a glint of light suddenly appeared in his cloudy eyes.

   "Are you back?" Zhong Fangzhuo tremblingly stretched out his hand towards the youngest grandson.

   "Yes, Grandpa." Zhong Shi took two quick steps and held Zhong Fangzhuo's hand tightly. Zhong Fangzhuo's hands were rough and cold, Zhong Shi felt the calluses on his palms, his nose was sore, tears were about to fall down.

   "Why are you crying, a man bleeds but not tears." Zhong Fangzhuo said quite seriously with a straight face.

   "Yes, Grandpa!" Zhong Shi turned his face away, he was afraid that he would cry out on the spot. At this time, he couldn't help blaming himself in his heart. Since he was reborn, he has been obsessed with making money, and to some extent neglected family members. In the age when he was not reborn, his parents died young, so he never felt the warmth of his family. As an adult, he has been receiving foreign education. In this kind of education, children basically live away from their parents after they grow up, and only go home to reunite with their parents on Christmas and Thanksgiving every year.

   "Do you want to know what wish Grandpa has that you can't let go of?" Zhong Fangzhuo forced a smile on his face, and broke Zhong Shi's mind with one sentence.

   "Grandpa, what are you talking about. The doctor said that you have nothing serious, and you can be discharged from the hospital after a few days of rest. Don't think about it." Zhong Shi quickly wiped his eyes, turned his head and said seriously to Zhong Fangzhuo.

"Actually, you have an aunt. Even your uncle and father know about these things. I have often thought of her in the past two years, and I always feel sorry for her, but I don't know what is going on with her now." Zhong Fangzhuo's persuasion to Zhong Shi Turning a deaf ear, he said to himself, "That was in the 1960s. At that time, your aunt was only in her teens. At that time, she was poor. Many people starved to death, and our family couldn't get enough to eat. There was really no other way. I had no choice but to send your aunt away. Thinking about it now, I feel sorry for your aunt."

It was in this general environment that Zhong Fangzhuo and his wife had no choice but to give the ten-year-old Zhong Shi’s aunt to a relatively wealthy family. At that time, Zhong Shi’s aunt didn’t know what happened. I was very happy to be able to eat enough, but I didn't know that I was going to leave this house until the time of parting. At that time, I cried so hard that I refused to leave no matter what, and finally I was dragged away.

"At that time, Jianguo and Jianjun were working in the fields. When they got home, your grandma and I lied to them that the younger sister had starved to death. They both cried for a while, but in fact they died of starvation. We gave her away with our own hands. Because of this, your grandma still couldn’t forget the girl when she was dying. Thinking about it now, it’s really a crime!"

   Speaking of this, Zhong Fangzhuo burst into tears, sobbing choked up, holding Zhong Shi's hand, crying like a child.

   "Grandpa, don't worry, I know what to do!" Zhong Shi said with firm eyes. (The new exciting part is about to start, and the author is working on the code words.
