Finale: The decision to undergo surgery was heard. The quiet breathing in the ward was audible. Fu Jingguo looked at Xiao Seshan who was standing beside the bed. After a pause, he asked: "Besides coming to the hospital to see me today, is there anything else you want to see me for?"
thing?"
Xiao Seshan smiled: "I have to say, you still understand me."
"That's natural. You and I have been friends for so many years. Apart from your wife, I'm probably the one who knows you best."
"Since you asked that, I won't beat around the bush." Xiao Seshan pursed his lips, and then said: "I came here this time because I heard Xiao Wan talk about your illness, and I also heard her say,
You don’t want treatment?”
"So that's what happened."
"That's it."
"They are just worried. I'm in good health and I didn't say I didn't want treatment. Now I take more medicine a day than you eat, and I'm still being treated with medicine."
Xiao Seshan frowned: "Are you unwilling to undergo surgery?"
Fu Jingguo didn't expect that he even knew about this, and sighed: "Yes."
"Why?"
"What other reason could there be? I just feel that at such an old age, it would be a trivial matter for someone to cut me with a knife on this old bone. I'm just afraid that I won't be able to lift it up. The King of Hell left me in the underworld. It's not a big loss."
"Fu Jingguo often feels thirsty these days. As he spoke, he reached for the cup, but he couldn't reach it. Xiao Seshan stood up and handed it to him. After he took a big sip, he said: "Now that I'm taking medicine, I can still do it.
We are alive for the time being, but if we go for an operation tomorrow and accidentally die on the operating table, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?”
After saying that, I also found it funny and smiled: "I didn't expect that one day I would be so afraid of death."
"Everyone is afraid of death." Xiao Seshan answered, "When I was young, I was not afraid of the sky and the earth, so I was not afraid of death. Now that I am older, with children and grandchildren around my knees, I have concerns about things in my heart, and I feel reluctant to let go.
You will be scared to death."
He spoke so thoroughly that Fu Jingguo raised his eyebrows: "It seems that you are also a person who is afraid of death."
"Exactly." Xiao Seshan laughed, "Have you forgotten that I have 'died' once? Now that I have 'lived' again, of course I cherish it very much."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Jingguo's hand holding the teacup froze.
The atmosphere changed in vain.
Xiao Seshan also didn't understand that he had made him feel uncomfortable by mentioning the past unconsciously. He was not in good health now and was afraid that he would take it to heart. He was about to open his mouth to explain to him when Fu Jingguo spoke up.
"Seshan, over the years, the only wrong thing I have ever done was that one."
"It's all in the past, don't mention it..."
"No, if you don't say it today, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to say it in the future." Fu Jingguo cut off his words, pursed his lips into a thin line, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "Now I can retire in peace and health, and I can still see my two grandchildren.
Lively and cute, all this is because of you. If you hadn't stopped me from doing wrong things back then, how could I have been in this situation?"
At that time, Xiao Seshan was the resident reporter. Fu Jingguo and Li Zuo's father served in the same jun team. Li Zuo's father had evil thoughts and had the idea of jun recruitment, and even secretly dragged Fu Jingguo into the water. When Fu Jingguo found out, he
He was already tied to a grasshopper on a rope. Fu Jingguo, who was angry and angry, never thought that his long-time friend and comrade-in-arms would do such a thing. He wanted to persuade him to stop, but Li Zuo's father didn't want to stop, and even
If you want to do anything by threatening him, you must think twice before you act, because he is not the only one on this boat. If you want to find out, Fu Jingguo will not be able to escape the involvement.
Fu Jingguo's heart skipped a beat at that time, knowing that what he said was true. If something happened to him, he himself might also be implicated.
He didn't want anything to happen, and he felt timid in his heart. In the end, he had no choice but to turn a blind eye and not care about anything.
Finally one day Xiao Seshan discovered the evidence. He immediately went to find Fu Jingguo, threw the evidence in front of him and asked him why he was so confused and dared to do such a thing?!
Fu Jingguo knew in his heart that this matter would be exposed one day, but he did not expect that Xiao Seshan would find out. After he calmed down, he asked him what he wanted to do. As long as Xiao Seshan stopped, he would pretend that he had not seen the evidence. After all, he had not seen the evidence for so many years.
They all knew who the other party was, and Fu Jingguo also knew that what Xiao Seshan said was true. He agreed to his request and told him that he would never get involved again from now on.
Something illegal.
Afterwards, Fu Jingguo told Li Zuo's father about the incident. Li Zuo's father was shocked and showed no emotion at the time, but later, Fu Jingguo never expected that he was so cruel that he wanted to silence him.
I don’t know whether it was Xiao Seshan who was blessed with great fortune, or God had his own arrangements. He did not die after such a serious car accident, but became a vegetative state and lay in the hospital.
Because of guilt and regret, Fu Jingguo took on everything in Xiaose Mountain from then on.
"After you were hospitalized, I did everything I could to help. Xiaowan is a strong and brave good child. She has supported half of the sky at such a young age. I couldn't watch her suffer, so I asked Ziheng to marry her and take care of her."
Pulled away from memories and past events, Fu Jingguo let out a long sigh: "Li Xiong was blinded by lard and did such a thing. After your accident, I went to him and warned him, saying that even though you were in the hospital,
Lie down, but if he wants her to do something to you, I will take the initiative to report him, and I will never let him go. He was worried about me and didn't dare to do anything to me. From that time on, I rarely interacted with him.
.”
After Fu Jingguo finished speaking, Xiao Seshan remained silent.
"Karma has its consequences. You may not know it if you haven't been in China these years. Two years ago, Li Xiong was paralyzed in bed due to a stroke." He put down the tea cup in his hand and said: "And my body is not getting better every year.
In the year, I got sick two days ago and was almost taken away by the King of Hell."
Xiao Seshan smiled when he heard this: "It seems that the King of Hell doesn't particularly want to take you in."
Fu Jingguo smiled bitterly: "It will be a matter of time."
"Don't say that. Medical science is so advanced now. You have to believe in science and doctors. Everything will be fine." Fu Jingguo reached out and patted his shoulder: "You said you didn't want to have surgery because you were afraid of something happening during the surgery, but you
Have you ever thought about what if nothing happens, what if your surgery goes well and you live a successful and healthy life?"
"The two grandsons are still so young. You want to see them grow up happily and spend birthdays with them one after another. I know you have thought about these, but if you want to experience these, then you
It is necessary to take good care of your health in order to be with them!"
Fu Jingguo opened his mouth and wanted to say something. Xiao Seshan sat down on a chair beside him: "To tell you the truth, the purpose of my coming today is to persuade you to have surgery, although the final decision is still in your hands.
But I only know one thing. If you do this surgery, you will have a 50% chance of living for a few more years. If you don’t do it, your life will be in danger at any time."

The two of them talked for a long time inside, and Xiao Wan frequently glanced sideways.
Fu Ziheng was very leisurely and at ease. He didn't seem to be at all curious about what the two elders were talking about. He was sitting on a chair nearby, having fun with the two little guys.
Chen Wanyi stood in the corner, and Xiao Wan walked over and comforted her: "There should be nothing wrong. If you haven't come out for so long, the two of you probably haven't seen each other for a long time, so the time to reminisce is a little longer."
Chen Wanyi smiled: "I'm not worried."
"No?"
"No. Didn't you see how happy the old man was when he saw your father entering the ward? He has been nagging me these past few days that he doesn't want to be hospitalized. Now that an acquaintance comes to see him, he must be very happy now.
, why should I worry about him."
Just as he was talking, Chu Ran, who had been resting at home for a long time, came over.
"Hey, why are you all outside?" Chu Ran sat down on the bench, took Xiaoxiao and gave her a smack on the face.
"Xiao Wan's father is here and is reminiscing about old times inside. We don't want to disturb him, so we can only come out and wait." After Fu Ziheng finished speaking, he snatched his daughter back and wiped her face again, with a look of disgust on his face: "It's stained by saliva.
A full face, dirty or not!"
Xiaoxiao didn't dislike it yet, but he, a father, began to dislike it. Chu Ran was not happy, and he was not very dirty. Didn't he just go home and wash his face and teeth?
He was about to retort when the door to the ward was pushed open from the inside and Father Xiao walked out. Xiao Wan immediately went over and said, "Dad, why have you been chatting for so long?"
"I talked about some past events, so we chatted for a long time." Father Xiao looked at them and seemed to be in a good mood. The conversation must have been quite pleasant. He pointed inside and said, "By the way, Jingguo wants you to come in. I have something to do."
To announce."
"What's up?"
"You'll find out when you go in."
Xiao Wan followed them and led the children in. As soon as she closed the door, she heard Fu Jingguo, who was half leaning and half sitting on the hospital bed, saying: "I have made a decision and will go for surgery. You have discussed it with the doctor.
Arrange a time..."
"What?!" Chen Wanyi was the first to express surprise.
Not to mention Chu Ran, even Fu Ziheng was stunned for a moment. In just a moment, the stubborn old man changed his mind and thoughts... Fu Ziheng turned his attention to Father Xiao by the door.
Chu Ran walked over: "Dad, have you really decided to have surgery?"
"How can I still lie to you?"
"That...that..."
"Don't believe me, I've thought about it all." Fu Jingguo waved his hand, "That's it for today. You all go back and have a good rest. I'm always ready. The sooner I can do this surgery before I regret it, the better.
"
Chu Ran clapped his hands: "No problem."

The operation time was scheduled for noon two days later. Everyone in the Fu family came early that morning. When Fu Jingguo saw so many people, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "Why are they all here?"
Then he waved and the two children walked up to him. He reached out and rubbed Xiaoxiao's head: "Shouldn't you be going to school today? Why are you here with your brother?"
Xiaoxiao answered for her sister: "Mom asked for leave for us and said that grandpa will have an operation today. We will all come and watch over him, so that when grandpa wakes up, we can see the whole family."
"Good boy." Fu Jingguo held the child's hand and suddenly said, "You all go out. Xiao Wan and the children stay here. I have something to say to them."
The door to the ward was closed, and Xiao Wan sat down next to it, "What do you want from me?"
"It's nothing serious. I just want to tell you something from my heart." Fu Jingguo smiled and said, "Don't be nervous."
Xiao Wan nodded: "Yes."
"I want to have this operation. It was your father who persuaded me. You must also know."
"yes."
"Your father told me a lot of past events that day, some good and bad, and he even talked about his car accident that year." Fu Jingguo's voice deepened.
Xiao Wan lowered his eyes: "These... these things have passed, and the operation is about to take place. Don't think about these unhappy things."
"Oh, I'm just keeping you here to tell you this because I'm afraid that if something happens to me on the operating table, I won't have any regrets at that time." Fu Jingguo let out a long sigh, "I never thought about it.
I will be forgiven by you and your father, and I have always wanted to say sorry to you in person in front of you."
Xiao Wan pursed her lips: "I understand."
Fu Jingguo rubbed the heads of the two children: "Xiaoxiao, grandpa will go into the operating room in a moment. Grandpa promised you that the things he promised you are already being done. You will be able to see them after a while."
Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Grandpa doesn't lie."
"Thank you, grandpa."
"Then go out with mom first, and call grandma in by the way. Grandpa has something to tell grandma, okay?"
"Okay grandpa."
Xiao Wan got up and took the children out and conveyed Fu Jingguo's request. Chen Wanyi came in. Fu Jingguo pointed to the side: "Sit down and let's talk."
"When you come out of the operating room, we can talk about it. What are you doing in a hurry?" Chen Wanyi poured him a cup of tea and said, "Drink some."
Fu Jingguo took it, but he didn't rush to drink it, he just stared at her.
"What's wrong? My face is dirty?"
"no."
Fu Jingguo suddenly reached out and took her hand, "Sit down and let me take a good look at you."
Chen Wanyi blushed: "What are you doing? This is a ward. Don't be ridiculous and make people laugh."
"What a joke, there's no one here, just the two of us." Fu Jingguo laughed, "I haven't told you the truth for so many years. I've been holding it back in my heart. It's too uncomfortable not to say it today."
"What's the truth?"
"I have never told you that you have worked hard and suffered a lot of grievances over the years. The outside world has always said that Ziheng's mother died because of you, but you have never said anything. You have worked hard to run this family. Fu Ziheng
I have been criticizing you a lot, and I don’t even show your face, but you have endured everything... I marry a virtuous wife, and I, Fu Jingguo, can marry such a virtuous wife like you because I am lucky."
Chen Wanyi was a little embarrassed by what he said: "Why are you saying this all of a sudden?"
