The father and son came out of the hospital, and Zhao Tian took the whip from Zhao Qingxiang's hand.
"Qingxiang, go call your two sisters."
Zhao Qingxiang ran to the post office. Along the way, he thought about who to call, and finally decided to call the transportation team. The younger sister didn't go to work. He heard that the ceramics factory was far from home, so the transportation team would be closer.
Yang Hongming, the captain of the transportation team, was on duty today, so he answered the phone.
"Hello, I'm looking for Zhang Fusheng or Zhou Yongbing."
"Who are you?"
"Our brother-in-law, aren't they here?"
"You're not here, is there anything important?" He still knew their brother-in-law, and he would eat food and meat from there every year.
"Can you please go tell them and ask them to come back? My mother is gone."
"Okay, I'll tell them right away."
"Thank you. I'm going home too. Just tell them we'll go back to the city hospital."
"good."
Yang Hongming rode to Zhang Fusheng's house, thinking that this year Fusheng would really die. Just a few days after his mother died, his mother-in-law died again.
"Brother, why are you here?"
"Fusheng, where is your wife? I just received a call from your brother-in-law. Your mother-in-law is gone and she is walking back from the hospital in the city."
Zhao Yanping heard the noise outside and walked out, just in time to hear the news.
Tears fell immediately. "Brother Yang, what else did my elder brother say?"
Yang Hongming shook his head, "I didn't say anything else, I just told you to go back."
Zhao Yanping ran into the house.
"Brother, please excuse me. Let's go to Xiaobing's house."
"Okay." Yang Hongming thought that even if he wanted to leave now, he wouldn't be able to get there in half a month.
Zhao Yanping had already put on her coat and came out holding her husband's coat.
"Xiaoping, don't be anxious. Even if you are anxious, there is nothing you can do."
"Fusheng, let's go find Xiaoli."
When the couple arrived at Zhou's house, their family was selling tofu.
"Xiao Li!"
Zhao Yanli was startled when she heard her eldest sister crying.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
"Xiao Li, my eldest brother just called the transportation team and said that my mother is gone. They are now heading back from the hospital in the city."
Zhao Yanli was also stunned, and the people who came to buy tofu at home stopped talking.
"Brother asked us to go back quickly."
"But how to go back? Can't make it by train?" Zhao Yanli also panicked, and her voice sounded like she was crying.
Zhang Fusheng was relatively calm. "Let's spend money to hire a car from the transportation team."
Sister Zhao Yanli nodded immediately after hearing this method.
"I'll go to the team to go through the formalities, you guys hurry up and pack up.
It’s better not to take the children with you. The elderly should also understand.”
The two sisters nodded. In fact, they just put away some clothes and they just came back not long ago.
Zhao Yanping also hurried home to clean up. Unexpectedly, she didn't even see her mother for the last time. When she was young, she felt that her mother didn't like them, but when she got older, she could understand.
This year, I didn’t dare to go back because of my mother-in-law’s health. I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t be able to see her for the last time.
Zhao Yanli also packed her things in a hurry.
Zhou's mother and Zhou's father both grasped the work in hand.
Everyone who bought tofu at home comforted Zhao Yanli, but they couldn't tell her what was in her heart.
I didn't see anything bad about my mother when I went back this time. She definitely didn't look as good as before, but I didn't see that she would die suddenly.
She was blaming herself for not spending more time with her mother.
Everyone who bought tofu in the yard at home bought too much, and some didn’t bring enough money, so they said it would be delivered tomorrow.
They all wanted to quickly divide the Zhou family's tofu. They had something to do at home, and since they couldn't eat the tofu at once, they could freeze it.
Zhou's mother came out with two hundred yuan and gave it to her daughter-in-law, "Xiao Li, bring more money."
"Mom, I have money in my hand." She received both of their salaries.
"Just take it with you. There are many places where you may spend money when you go out, so take it with you."
The two children also wanted to follow him. They were not too sad about Shi Qian's death. After all, they were still young and they had not seen him a few times.
Zhao Yanli would not take them with her because there was no room for them in the car, and because the children were still young and could not afford the trouble.
"You two must help your grandparents at home."
Both of them nodded. Although they were very naughty, they were still quite sensible.
Zhao Yanping went home, but the two younger ones were not at home, and there was no time to look for them now.
"Haiyan, your aunt and the four of us are going back. You can take care of Jianhua and the others at home."
"Mom, just go and relax. I'm fine too. I'm at home."
My grandma at home just passed away a few days ago, and my grandma is dying again.
Zhao Yanping also packed some clothes. She didn't prepare anything else. She just brought the money. She mainly had food and meat at home. There was no need to prepare anything else.
"You tell your eldest brother that your eldest brother will also have a day off tomorrow. You cook for them and let your eldest brother take care of them."
Haiyan nodded. "Mom, I know. I will go find them and come back."
Zhao Yanping carried her bag and went to her sister's house. She had just agreed with her husband to get together directly at her sister's house.
When she arrived at Zhou's house, her husband had not arrived yet.
Zhou's mother was cooking for them, just using lard and green onions in a pot, adding sauerkraut, and making noodles soup.
Zhang Fusheng drove over. The four of them were full and didn't bring anything else. They went to a restaurant to eat on the way.
The two drivers, Yong Bing and the others, were certainly faster along the way than one person with one car.
Fortunately it didn't snow this year, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to leave even if I was in a hurry, so I spent New Year's Eve in the car.
Zhao Qingxiang caught up with the donkey cart and saw his father sitting in the cart blankly, but his hand was put into the bed, probably holding his mother's hand.
His eyes were red. "Dad, I have already called Xiaoping and the others."
Zhao Tian was stunned and did not reply. She felt empty now.
The two brothers are the same. They sit for a while when they are tired and walk quickly most of the time.
They arrived home at around three o'clock in the middle of the night.
Qi Xuemei heard the noise and immediately went to open the door. The donkey cart was rushing to the yard.
"Dad, we're home. You get out of the car, and I'll carry my mother into the house." Zhao Qingxiang helped his father get out of the car.
Zhao Tian just watched his eldest son carrying his wife into the house with the quilt attached.
Qi Xuemei didn't expect to come back so early, so she didn't light the fire in the house. When she saw her mother-in-law being brought in, she quickly lit the fire.
We also have to cook for them. No matter what happens to the mother-in-law, they still need to eat.
Zhao Qingxiang put down his mother, knowing that she was not dead yet, and her body was still warm. But if he hadn't woken up yet, he was probably waiting for his two younger sisters, right?
? ? ?It’s the last day of 2021, all the bad things have passed, come on guys!
