Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 673 The old man passed away

The old man nodded in relief and said, "That's good, that's good! I still have a wish, I don't know, before I leave, can you help me achieve it?"

I hurriedly nodded and said, "Say, I will try my best! You still have a long life ahead, and you still have to take care of our children!"

The old man said: "Me? I can't take care of myself, how can I take care of your children for you? I am sober for a while, and confused for a while! I don't want to drag you down anymore!"

Xiao Hao hurriedly said from behind: "Grandpa, I still want to hear your battle stories. I was also influenced by you when I went to the military academy! I also want to tell you about our school! It's very exciting!"

The old man smiled, looked at Xiao Hao lovingly and said, "Xiao Hao will definitely become a great general! Grandpa won't be fooled!"

Then he looked at Xiaoxue and said, "Xiaoxue is getting more and more beautiful! You are a big girl, you can't keep crying, you have to be like your aunt, always be so strong!"

Xiaoxue hummed and said, "Grandpa, I know!"

The old man looked at Yaoyang, and before he could speak, Yaoyang said with a smile: "You don't need to look at me, I already know what you are going to say? Since you were young, you have looked down on me, and you never let the second brother, Shengnan Play with me, I remember it!"

The old man said with a smile: "You are just as good, you have self-knowledge! Thanks to our Shengnan for not taking a fancy to you!"

Yaoyang snorted and said, "That's why I have to take a fancy to her! That bad-tempered one is just as good as you! I can't afford to provoke you! I'm a Katsuo and my own sister. I'm a kid, who the hell is she?" I've bullied him before, but I've never bullied Shengnan, have I? Whenever that wild child bullies Shengnan, am I the first one to rush over?"

After finishing speaking, he poked me and said, "Thank you so much for helping you look after your wife for so many years without being bullied at all!"

I said domineeringly: "Who dares? Let me know, even if it was 20 years ago, I have to settle it with them today! Anyone who dares to bully my wife is either not born yet, or is reincarnated." Already!"

The old man said with relief: "In my life, the most satisfying thing is that Sheng Nan found you. I know that her happiness in this life has come to an end! You boy, I really didn't like you at the beginning. How do you look at it? I think you are not worthy of our family's Shengnan. But after meeting your father, you will know that a tiger father has no dogs. The most important thing is to know how to love your wife!"

I smiled and said, "I'm right, why do you think I'm so good? It's really a blessing for Katsuo to find me!"

The old man smiled again and said, "It's the blessing of our grandson's family!"

After speaking, he seemed tired and closed his eyes, as if falling asleep.

When the car arrived home, I asked the old man to get out of the car and yelled. The old man didn't move. I thought he was really tired. After thinking about it, I decided to let him sleep for a while.Let the two children go up first, and I will accompany the old man in the car for a while.

The two children went up first, seeing Yaoyang yawning, let him go up too.

Yaoyang didn't move, just smiled and said to chat with me for a while.

Then he looked at the old man, and suddenly stretched out his hand to poke under the old man's nose, and retracted his hand in fright.

I realized what was going on, and immediately probed with my hand, and then shook the old man, but the old man remained motionless.

I was completely dumbfounded, Yaoyang reacted and said: "Call, call an ambulance!"

I also reacted, and while starting the car, I said: "What is the ambulance called? By the time they arrive, the cucumbers and vegetables will be cold. Let's go to the hospital!"

When I arrived at the hospital, the car didn't stop, so I ran down and shouted, "Come on, help me!"

Soon someone in the hospital pushed a stretcher, ran over, carefully lifted the old man up, and pushed him into the emergency room.

I stood at the door of the emergency room like a wooden man, trembling all over, recalling the conversation with the old man just now.

He is obviously well, but he is still sober, how could he need first aid now?Those who have checked the body, there is no problem!
Yaoyang's phone call came from my ear, I couldn't hear what he was talking about, but I could guess that he was calling the family and telling them to come over.

Immediately hung up the phone, patted my shoulder and said: "I mean, what if, what if the old man dies, I hope Shengnan and the others can see the old man for the last time!"

I nodded mechanically and didn't speak.

Half an hour later, the whole family came.

Katsuo, who was running at the front, asked me anxiously, "Didn't you say that the person was found, is it alright? Are you still talking and laughing?"

Xiao Hao then said: "Yes, Grandpa told me just now that I can become a great general!"

I'm so tired I don't know how to answer because I don't know what's going on?
Yaoyang explained from the side: "We don't know either. While talking, the old man seemed to be tired, so he closed his eyes. We didn't dare to disturb him. We wanted him to sleep a little longer. Who knows... no breath It's..."

I looked at Katsuo's emotions, and it seemed that he was about to collapse.

I supported Shengnan, hugged her in my arms, and comforted her: "It's okay, the old man will be fine with his life!"

Shengnan said silently: "My dad hasn't seen me in a wedding dress yet! He has to wait until I get married, we agreed! He promised me!"

I hummed and said, "What he promised you, he can definitely do!"

An hour later, Mr. Sun failed to fulfill his promise, and the doctor announced his death.The cause of death is natural death, the failure of various organs of the body, which belongs to natural death without the effect of external force.

A long time ago, Katsuo and I both imagined this day, and thought it might not be too far away.In fact, we have prepared in our hearts, but when this day comes, we still can't accept it, it's too sudden.

After seeing the old man for the last time, after going through all the procedures in the hospital, the family returned home to discuss the old man's funeral.

My dad kept muttering to himself, blaming himself: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, if I hadn't lost the old man, this wouldn't have happened!"

I wanted to persuade a few words, Ke Shengnan is here, I don't know how to speak for a while?
But Sheng Nan persuaded me: "Dad, it's not your fault. The doctor said it was a natural death. When he passed away, he was very peaceful and there was no pain. This is also a kind of relief for him. Dad, don't blame yourself! I really don't blame you!"

My dad seemed to be about to collapse, he just kept saying, "Shengnan, it's all my fault, it's all my fault!"

I persuaded: "Dad, don't be like this, it will be more painful if you win like this! The dead rest in peace, the living are like this, don't get sick again!"

After finishing speaking, he said to my mother: "Mom, please help my father first and then rest!"

My mother hummed and helped my father into the room.

Then, I said to Xiaoxue and Xiaohao: "Go and rest too, there are still many things that I need your help with tomorrow!"

The two of them didn't move.

Yaoyang said to me: "Let's chat for a while, I haven't chatted with you for a long time!"

I looked at the sad Katsuo and nodded.

Although Katsuo was sad, he looked calm, sitting on the roof with us, looking at the sky.

Seeing the chessboard on the table, Xiaohao said sadly, "Grandpa Sun still said he wanted me to play chess. I haven't beaten him once!"

I was a little curious and asked: "Why do you like being with Grandpa Sun so much? Do you have a common topic?"

Xiaohao recalled: "Actually, Grandpa Sun hated me very much at first, and I didn't like him either. However, he was very reasonable. He didn't immediately deny anything I did, but analyzed it with me. Who is right and who is wrong? Slowly I realized that he is a fighting hero. I like hearing stories about fighting heroes the most. They are very true. Grandpa Sun also taught me a lot of principles of life. He said that everything in this world, You can't escape the word "reason"! Everything in this world has its place to be reasonable. So, you must use the word "reason" in everything you do. Of course, a lot of time, the reason you think may not be right, but I will definitely You must firmly believe that you can walk all over the world if you are reasonable, and you cannot walk an inch if you are unreasonable!"

I snorted and said, "Then you didn't listen to your grandpa? You don't seem to be reasonable with Xiaoxue? Do you know who I love the most in this family?"

Xiaohao nodded and said, "I know! Sister Xiaoxue!"

I shook my head and said, "Wrong, I love you the most! You may think that what I said is false, but if you think about it carefully, I have been putting pressure on you from the beginning to help you correct what you have committed. Wrong! You are Dong Zong’s son. It stands to reason that I should please you, but I didn’t! I took the risk of offending your mother and pulled you back. Can I feel sorry for you? But you still make me Disappointed, how could you break your sister Xiaoxue's heart?"

Xiaohao didn't explain, just nodded remorsefully.

Xiaoxue didn't want Xiaohao to be wronged, so she defended him: "Uncle, it's not like that, I have something wrong too!"

I asked with an oh: "What's wrong with you? Tell me!"

Xiaoxue blushed and couldn't speak for a while.

I went on to say: "You can't tell, let me tell you! We have tried our best to train you to become a master, just hope you can stand out from the crowd, hope you can become our pride, we hope you are proud, hope You are proud to be a proud princess. But what about you? What have you done? For this kid, you are humbled to such an extent. Fortunately, he is my family. If not, I really want to slap you twice. We will slap you When you are a treasure, you turn to someone else as a grass, which is not even as good as grass, it is like dirt!"

Xiao Hao finally couldn't help but said: "She is not humble, it is a deformed sense of love! Two people are good, so they have to be together all the time? Do they have to stay together all the time? Don't they need some space for each other? ? In order to let me accompany her, she tied me to the bed and slept me for two days and two nights! I would die at every turn, loving someone is not about possessing him, but giving him full freedom!"

The three of us were stunned, and I thought to myself, this seems a bit abnormal.Looking at Xiaoxue questioningly, Xiaoxue argued: "My mother gave my dad too much freedom before, what about now? I haven't seen my dad for a few years! I just want to spend more time with the person I love , what's wrong with that?"

Katsuo touched Xiaoxue's head and said, "How old are you? How do you know this is the person you love the most in your life? Everyone loves in different ways, and you shouldn't imitate your parents. It cannot be copied!"

I sighed and said: "Okay, don't talk about it! There is no right or wrong in this matter! Since you have separated, you will be brothers and sisters from now on! Brother should treat sister better, sister can't be too self-willed! You I'm still young, I'll definitely find someone more suitable for me in the future! Go to sleep!"

The two younger ones went downstairs, Yaoyang asked me: "Don't you think Xiaoxue's view of love is distorted? Why didn't you correct her?"

Katsuo explained for me: "How can she listen to it now? She has only experienced a few loves, some of which are not even called love, but just have a good impression of each other. Feelings have to be understood by herself, and no one can help her. .”

I hummed and said, "It's the family's fault, and it brought her a distorted view of love, and she will gradually realize it herself!"

Yaoyang sighed and said: "Children nowadays are very thoughtful and mature too precociously. When I was their age, I still thought about how to skip school and how to cheat my family's money! The times are different!"

Then he looked at Shengnan and me, patted Shengnan on the shoulder and said, "You are so strong. I see that you are fine, so I feel at ease! Leave the matter of the old man to us!"

Shengnan patted Yaoyang's hand for the first time and said, "Thank you Brother Yaoyang!"

Yaoyang was stunned for a moment, and then said very relieved: "Little man, you are finally willing to call me brother! I'm going down, so don't chat too late, there will be a lot of things tomorrow!"

Katsuo leaned on my shoulder and said, "Actually, this is also very good. Dad and Mom can meet again! It's just..."

Having said this, he finally choked up, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time broke out: "It's just that I don't have a father!" After speaking, he burst into tears.

I put my arms around Sheng Nan and said distressedly: "You still have me, and everyone in this family!"

Sheng Nan cried for a long time before saying: "I know, with you by my side, I am not afraid of anything! Don't leave me! You have to promise never to leave me! You can't let me go!"

I looked at Sheng Nan lovingly and said, "How come? We will grow old together, don't you still want to push me to watch you dance with the old men?"

Katsuo stopped crying, and said solemnly: "If you want to be healthy and healthy, your life will outlive me. When you get old, you have to serve me. If one day you are critically ill, you have to strangle me first, and then you will die." Go! You have to let me go ahead of you, you know?"

I said lightly: "Life is like making a phone call, either you hang up first, or I hang up first! However, for you, I will always wait until you hang up before I hang up!"

Shengnan stretched out his little finger and said, "Come on, let's pull the hook, there is only death, never life!"

I grabbed Katsuo's little finger: "There is only death, never life!"
