Hoarding Goods In Space: Struggling To Survive In A Crisis World.
Chapter 689
Crying rang out in the room, and everyone crowded in the small room, looking at Liu Zhang who died peacefully in the sadness of Wan Tao standing outside the door, his limbs cold, his eyes empty, the voice was still there, his ears were buzzing, and his fingers were numb Unwilling to tremble.
Just now that he was alive, he was still breathing, and his body was hot, why did he disappear the moment he came out?
Wan Tao staggered two steps. He could not believe Liu Zhang had just left. In the morning, they both said they would go out to shovel snow and come back to make snowmen for the kids. The bamboo near the river became more and more fertile, yesterday Liu Zhang talked about making more bamboo baskets for children, last night he still sewed himself, saying that his clothes were torn and needed to be patched.
He explained that the following spring, he would move on to live in a small courtyard, and the poker players in the chess and card rooms made a deal with him that when the weather was more comfortable, it would be more comfortable, he's going fishing downstream.
Wan Tao only felt a headache and tightness in his chest. He was so uncomfortable that he could not breathe. He wanted to find a place to lean on, but his legs were so weak that he fell down hard the moment he moved them. Steps.
"Uncle Wan." Seeing Wan Tao fall, Tang Yizheng rushed to help him.
"Uncle Wan, what's wrong with you? You can't do anything, Uncle Wan, Uncle Wan..."
When Wan Tao woke up, Xuxu and An An were sitting by his bedside. Seeing him awake, Xuxu hugged him and cried loudly. The boy's eyes were red and swollen. Looks like she's been crying. An An An raised his hand and wiped his mouth. Tears, and then comes out to call an adult.
Wan Tao held Xuxu in his arms and gently stroked her hair, "Grandfather Wan is fine, stop crying."
"Grandfather Wan, I just went to see Grandpa Liu. My mother said that Grandpa Liu had died. After death, she would never wake up again, never hug me, tell stories, and tie my hair. I'm so afraid you won't wake up either."
Wan Tao's nose was sour, and he shook his head slightly, "How can I hold you back, Xuxu, you go out first, Grandpa Wan gets up and washes his face, then he comes out to look for you."
Xuxu turned his head three times, "Grandfather Wan, I will wait for you at the door."
"Okay, I'll be right out."
As soon as Xuxu walked out of the room, he saw everyone standing outside.
"Grandfather Wan said that he would wash his face before coming out to look for us."
Ye Fu nodded, "Okay, then let's go first."
He reached out to close the door The wooden house was not very soundproof When the door was closed, everyone heard a bated cry from the bathroom.
"Grandfather Wan cried." Xuxu cried, "I'll hug him, Grandpa Wan must be very sad."
Fang Wei hugged Xuxu with red eyes, "Good boy, don't bother Grandpa Wan, wait for him to come out, and let's hug him, okay?"
The others also cried softly, Ye Fu clenched his lower lips, wiped his tears, and gestured for everyone to leave.
"Song's brother, Wu Pei, you stay here to look after Uncle Wan and Uncle Liu. The others will come with me to bring the wood. I'll make a coffin."
Everyone hurriedly took action after hearing those words, Ye Fu took out a tissue and distributed it to everyone.
"Don't cry, Uncle Liu doesn't like to see us cry."
Therefore, Ye Fu still could not hold back the tears. He turned his back and tried to take a deep breath to hold back his emotions.
Jiang Rong patted him on the shoulder, then gestured for the others to go to the storage first.
"He must know that his time is coming. Before she lay down, she cleaned herself, even cut off her beard and nails, and changed her clothes. He is a good person, so let him go in a good way. Don't 'you Did you say that Uncle Liu doesn't like us crying, be good, don't cry, everyone is waiting for you to pick a wood together.
Ye Fu covered his eyes, "Once, give me two minutes to calm down."
After he finished speaking, Ye Fu crouched on the ground and hugged his head, while Jiang Rong stood beside him to calm him down.
Two minutes later, Ye Fu got up and went to the storage with Jiang Rong Qi Yuan and the others saw Ye Fu and Jiang Rong coming, wiped their eyes and stood up hurriedly.
"There's a lot of wood, which one should I choose?"
Ye Fu looked at the mahogany pile in the corner, "This is it."
"How will Uncle Liu's funeral be handled? Will he be sent to the base for cremation? Or will he be dealt with in space?"
"I'll ask for Uncle Wan's opinion later, no matter how we deal with it, let's do it as usual, stop for three days."
Mahogany is the best material for making coffins. When Ye Fu used to cut wood, he only thought of lighting a fire for warmth. He never thought that one day he would use it to make a coffin.
“Is this Grandpa Liu's future home?” Xuxu suddenly asked.
Everyone froze for a moment, An An pulled Xuxu aside, whispered something to him, then the two children left.
"He survived a severe injury during a volcanic eruption. He is in good health and spirit this year. He has been exercising recently. He could still run around the wooden house three times each morning. He's very healthy. Say no, it's gone."
"It's hard to think about it, we don't exist, unfortunately."
"Uncle Wan feels worse than us, don't cry, hurry up and let Uncle Liu go politely."
Inside the wooden house, Wan Tao walked out of the room, the entire wooden house was silent, everyone came out, only Police Officers Song and Wu Pei were standing beside Liu Zhang's bed.
Seeing Wan Tao approaching, the two looked at him anxiously. Wan Tao waved his hand and gestured for them to come out. He wanted to stay alone with Liu Zhang for a while.
With a single click, the door closed, Wan Tao pulled up a chair and sat in front of the bed, watching Liu Zhang calmly.
"It's been decades, and we brothers haven't been separated much. Now you leave me and go, no matter how sad the kids are. We've known each other for years, and the strong winds and waves have come. If you say die, you will die.Don't greet me, Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang, you are really good.
"Old Money's gone, he's supposed to be gone, and you're gone now, the three of us, I'm the only one left."
"Children will make a coffin for you. I know you're afraid of getting sick, so you won't be cremated. You said you wanted to go back to your hometown. Don't worry, I'll try my best to live. If I have a chance to come back, I'll take you back with me. "
"Old Liu, if you see Lao Huang down here, don't you two keep arguing. I'm not here, no one will judge you. If you see your family, you should apologize to them. You deserve everything in your life, people, but I feel sorry for them.”
Wan Tao grabbed Liu Zhang's hand and patted him gently twice.
"You're blessed. It's good to be in your dreams. You are not suffering at all. I just found out by now that your hair is gray."
"Old Liu, let's be good brothers in the next life, it's agreed."
