Chapter 576 Fallen
When Li Yuanlang returned to Shui Tingyue's side in the hotel, his wife was surprised and asked him, why did he come so early?
"My grandfather has left the intensive care unit and transferred to the general ward. His health is well recovered."
"Is that true?" Shui Tingyue sat up excitedly. Because the sound was loud, she woke up the sleeping Xiao Guyu, and she cried so hard.
Shui Tingyue quickly got out of bed, held her son and coaxed her, and asked Li Yuanlang for details.
Li Yuanlang did not tell the truth. The old man had warned him not to let the third person know the conversation between them, and the absolute secret between them.
He wanted to keep the old man's request, so he told his wife that he had fallen asleep and missed the moment when the old man was sent to the ward.
No matter what, it is a great blessing for the whole family to recover from the old man's health. Shui Tingyue wanted to tell her parents the news immediately.
But Li Yuanlang persuaded him to stop. After all, it was already the second half of the night, and he was worried about disturbing them to rest.
Anyway, he saw that the old man was in good spirits, so it wouldn't be too late to go see him tomorrow morning.
After coaxing Xiao Guyu to sleep, the couple hugged each other. That night, they finally had a stable sleep.
However, after only less than four hours of sleep, Shui Tingyue's cell phone ringing quickly.
She opened her eyes in a daze, took them over and put them in her ears and said the word "hey", but she heard Shui Qingzhang's painful voice coming from inside: "Xiaoyue, you, your grandfather has passed away..."
"What!" Shui Tingyue sat up suddenly and asked again in disbelief: "Dad, what did you say?"
Shui Qingzhang repeated the words he didn't want to say: "Just ten minutes ago, the old man walked away while sleeping peacefully... Come quickly and see him for the last look..."
With a "click", Shui Tingyue's cell phone fell to the ground. She was dazed for a moment, and then covered her face and started crying loudly.
Li Yuanlang was awakened by her crying, and he didn't care about the crying of his son in the stroller, so he quickly asked.
After learning that Gu Zhongyuan passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early morning, Li Yuanlang was also shocked.
"Stop crying, let's go to the hospital."
When the couple rushed to the hospital ward, the body of Gu Zhongyuan was covered with white sheets.
Gu Zhengchuan, Gu Zhenggang, Gu Hongyan and Gu family members, as well as Gu family grandchildren are all present.
Everyone stood around the old man's body, with a solemn expression and cried from time to time.
At Gu Zhengchuan's request, the doctor opened the sheet and revealed the old man's face. Immediately, a burst of crying sounds of mountains and seas came from the room.
Even people like Gu Zhengchuan and Gu Zhengantan who have seen the world have tears in their eyes and tried their best to control them, but tears still burst out from their eyes without hesitation.
It is said that men don’t cry easily, but that’s not the sad place.
The old man who was still energetic last night was separated by yin and yang a few hours later. Even a person with a heart of heart would be melted by tears, let alone emotional people.
The room was filled with crying, heart-wrenching, moving and moving.
After a long time, Gu Zhengchuan wiped the corners of his eyes and signaled the doctor to cover the sheets. He said in a sad voice: "Dad has left, and people cannot be resurrected after leaving. We have a lot to do next."
Because of the old man's special identity, Gu Zhengchuan, as the eldest son, needs to notify the relevant departments.
In the next few days, many senior leaders sent their secretaries or family members to the mourning hall set up by the Gu family to pay homage and visit.
Gu Zhengchuan, Gu Zhenggang, Shui Qingzhang and others were busy receiving people from all sides and could not communicate with each other.
Li Yuanlang did not call anyone in Daiding County to inform him, but only told Zhao Gongda and Shikan.
The two of them are parents of Yunshui City, and have another identity, and they are direct subordinates of Shui Qingzhang.
It is necessary to notify the two of them. As for how to express it, it is not something you should worry about.
Li Yuanlang always stayed in the mourning hall. Even if it wasn't his turn to stand up, this was an attitude and his deep affection for Mr. Gu.
In his spare time, Li Yuanlang always had the scene of communicating with the old man alone that night.
He remembered what the old man said deeply.
Unexpectedly, this would be the last time between him and the old man.
Whenever I think back, Li Yuanlang's heart is as if he is cut off and he is unforgettable.
The day before the farewell ceremony of the body, the general manager came to the Gu family and held an extraordinary meeting with his family to explain some precautions.
After all, tomorrow's body farewell ceremony will have to be attended by senior leaders and face the TV camera.
He repeatedly emphasized discipline, and the family members were not allowed to cry and kept the scene absolutely quiet.
In addition, Gu Zhengchuan must formulate the number of attendees of his family and report directly to him. In principle, only immediate relatives are allowed to participate, and not too many should be allowed.
After seeing off the General Office Director, Gu Zhengchuan held a family meeting in the mourning hall and verbally announced the list of attendance tomorrow.
The children of the Gu family, daughters-in-law and son-in-law must attend, and grandson, granddaughter and granddaughter must also attend, but Li Yuanlang's name is not mentioned.
"Brother, what do you mean!" Gu Hongyan was the first to refuse.
Although she looked down on Li Yuanlang with her eyes, she was also her son-in-law.
Gu Zhengchuan refused to let Li Yuanlang participate, and it was clearly slapping her in the face. How could she tolerate it?
"There is no other meaning. You can't stay at home without anyone. Li Yuanlang just stays at home and keeps his soul for our father."
"Tomorrow is our father's funeral day, but you let a grandson-in-law keep a guard. If you spread it, you are not afraid of others' jokes." Gu Hongyan retorted, with a very firm attitude.
"Okay, you're afraid that someone will make a joke. If you don't work, you'll stay." Gu Zhengchuan looked at Gu Hongyan with a sneer.
Gu Hongyan became even more angry when he heard this, "Dad gave birth to me and raised me. You deprived you of the right to send him away before leaving. You bullied me as soon as Dad left."
Then he rushed to the mourning hall, knelt in front of the old man's portrait, and started to cry.
Shui Tingyue was so angry that she gritted her teeth, "Uncle, you are too much. Yuen Long is my husband and grandfather's grandson-in-law. Why don't you let him participate? You don't have this right."
After saying that, I quickly went to persuade my mother.
Shui Qingzhang was also as gloomy as water, and said with a cold face: "Brother, it's really inappropriate for you to do this. We are all family members. The old man's body is not cold. He doesn't want to see his brothers and feet facing each other and fight in his own nest."
Seeing this, Gu Zhenggang quickly came out to smooth things over, "Brother, let Li Yuanlang go. It really doesn't work. Let Liu Yan stay at home."
Gu Liuyan was not willing to participate in such occasions at all. For nothing else, those big guys who were only seen on TV would feel numb and extremely uncomfortable when they actually appeared beside her.
Anyway, she had seen her grandfather's face, so it doesn't matter whether she went or not.
So she continued, "Okay, I'll stay, you all go."
Gu Zhengchuan frowned and said angrily: "What do you think? You are the granddaughter of the Gu family. Your surname is Gu, but not Li."
As a junior, Li Yuanlang didn't plan to argue with Gu Zhengchuan.
After all, the old man's body is not cold, so if his family makes a fuss and spreads it out, what will it look like?
If you don’t go, don’t go. Stay at home and guard the old man’s mourning hall, and do your best to be filial.
The key is that Gu Zhengchuan's words were really ugly. He could no longer suppress his anger and counterattacked: "Uncle, do you see what my grandfather wanted to see when he was alive? As the eldest son of the family, you should maintain family unity and not divide the family into different levels. The son is the Gu family's family, and the same is true for his daughter. All he has in his blood vessels is the Gu family's blood."
"The last journey to send the elderly is the same right that every child of the Gu family should enjoy. What you said is that the family stays behind to guard the mourning hall. Tomorrow is the day of grandfather's funeral. The mourning hall is not the focus, but the focus is the farewell ceremony of the body."
"The director has already explained it clearly just now. Only the immediate relatives attend. Our Gu family is not many. If anyone is missing, let outsiders know. Will they think there are conflicts within us? Are they still waiting to watch the Gu family lively?"
"Grandpa has been open and honest all his life. When you come up with this, isn't this a joke to give people a joke and a special topic behind the scenes!"
"So, I hope my uncle should put the overall situation first and the unity of the Gu family as the first element, so that my grandfather can comfort me in the nine springs. I have finished speaking."
As Li Yuanlang finished speaking, Gu Zhengchuan's face turned white and turned white as he finished his cheeks.
You, a junior, dare to say this in public. It’s so outrageous!
Just as Gu Zhengchuan got angry, he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening and a figure walked in.
