After Two Lifetimes I Was Reborn Back Inside A Book - Chapter 175
Jiang Chen’s hands and feet were neat, and an apple was round after peeling. He divided it into several pieces and handed them to Mr. Miao Miao and Miao Miao who had just woken up.
Miao Miao sat on the edge of the bed, hugged Mr. Miao tightly, took the apple as a thank you, and ate it with one hand, without letting go of the other hand. Even if she wasn’t crying or fussing, she could tell from the fact that she woke up when she heard the sound, and that she was more dependent than usual, that she was actually very insecure now.
Jiang Chen didn’t know what to say, his heart was soft and distressed, and he said after a long while, “Is it sweet?”
Miao Miao finished eating a piece of apple, wiped her grandfather’s hands and wiped them herself, then smiled and nodded: “Sweet.”
Jiang Chen rubbed her head, “Then eat a few more pieces.”
“Thank you, Brother Jiang Chen.”
Mr. Miao remained silent all this time, watching the interaction between Jiang Chen and Miao Miao, his eyes flickered.
“Chenchen, if you have something to do, go and do your own thing. I’m already awake, and there’s nothing else to do here. Don’t delay you.”
“It’s okay, Grandpa Miao.” Jiang Chen said with a smile, “I’m on vacation right now. I haven’t seen you and Miao Miao for a long time. I just happen to be here with you for a while at this time.”
“Alright.” Mr. Miao turned to ask about Jiang Chen’s studies and the situation of the He family.
After Jiang Chen returned to He’s house, Mr. Miao, who was close to Jiang’s house, naturally knew the news. He was also worried at the beginning, and even comforted Jiang Zhuo and his wife. However, Jiang Chen became more and more busy later, and saw him less frequently. Yes, it’s been two years since I asked for the first time.
“Very good.” Jiang Chen smiled: “I also have a younger brother and a younger sister. I have a chance to bring them to see you.”
“That’s good.” Mr. Miao smiled kindly: “It’s good to have brothers and sisters. When you grow up, you can help each other and have someone to rely on when you encounter problems.”
The old man didn’t know what to think, and the smile on his face gradually faded. He touched the top of his granddaughter’s head and stopped talking.
There is no sun today, and even the light is dull. The gauze curtains absorb a layer and fall on the old man and the girl in the ward, like a layer of fog hanging over them, lifeless.
Jiang Chen slightly pursed his lips, got up and opened the curtains, turned his head and smiled a little: “Grandpa Miao, you haven’t eaten lunch yet, I’ll go downstairs and buy some for you, what do you want to eat?”
Mr. Miao seems to have come to his senses, and he was stunned for two seconds before nodding his head and then laughing: “Just buy a bowl of porridge in the cafeteria and serve it with some side dishes.”
Jiang Chen was about to go when he heard Mr. Miao continue, “Miao Miao, can you go buy a bowl of porridge for grandpa?”
Miao Miao stood up immediately: “Okay!”
Jiang Chen paused, Miao Miao had already taken the money from Mr. Miao and ran away.
The door of the ward was closed, and the room was quiet again.
Jiang Chen didn’t speak. He probably felt that Mr. Miao seemed to have something to say to him.
Mr. Miao sat upright and bent his back. He leaned back tremblingly. Jiang Chen walked to the hospital bed and adjusted the pillow in two steps. Then he was distracted to see the expression on Mr. Miao’s face. , compared to when Miaomiao was there just now, she was a little more defeated.
Jiang Chen was startled: “Grandpa Miao.”
Mr. Miao leaned on the pillow, waved his hand gently, and asked him to sit down with a smile.
“Is there something wrong with your body?” Jiang Chen looked him up and down: “During the examination just now, the doctor…”
Mr. Miao’s cough interrupted Jiang Chen’s words. He quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to Mr. Miao. He suppressed the cough after drinking it.
“It’s okay.” Mr. Miao put down his water glass and wrote lightly, “I’m sick.”
“Would you like the doctor to come and see?”
“No, my own body knows it by itself.”
Jiang Chen didn’t say a word, the old man’s old face was reflected in his eyes, and the image of Miao Miao hugging Mr. Miao’s arm tightly just now came to his mind, and he was faintly worried.
Mr. Miao grabbed Jiang Chen’s hand and tightened it slightly: “Grandpa wants to ask you something.”
“You say.”
“Find Yang Hui for me.”
Although the name Yang Hui is very common, but Mr. Miao ignored the complexity and familiarity when he mentioned Yang Hui before. It is self-evident who this Yang Hui is worthy of.
The astonishment on Jiang Chen’s face was too obvious. Seeing his appearance, the gloom in Mr. Miao’s eyes faded a little, and a smile floated on his face, “Surprised?”
“Is it Yang Hui from Yanghui International?”
“It’s him.” The smile on Mr. Miao’s face gradually faded again. He looked out the window at the gloomy sky, his eyes were darkened, and his old voice with a local accent was drawn out, with a sigh: “I want to hear A story between me and him?”
Jiang Chen pursed his lips. Although it was hard to imagine how Mr. Miao, who had spent most of his life in the countryside, met Yang Hui, who founded Yanghui International, but he knew that Mr. Miao would not be aimless. Judging by his expression, this The story doesn’t have a happy ending.
But seeing Mr. Shang Miao’s vicissitudes and tolerance, he knew that he wanted to talk, or that someone must listen to his words. Now that he is sitting here, it can only be him.
Jiang Chen: “Think.”
The wrinkles at the end of Mr. Miao’s eyes deepened, and his kind eyes fell on him for a moment, then moved away slightly, and looked at a point outside the window with nothing to do, and said slowly: “Yang Hui, his surname was not Yang before. , surnamed Miao…”
Before Mr. Miao was born, the Miao family was a well-known family in Yecheng in the south. Mr. Miao, who was born as the eldest son of the Miao family, can also be said to have a golden spoon in his mouth. According to him, before he was ten years old, , never washed his hands and brushed his teeth by himself, and even went to school with a servant on his back, which shows the situation of the Miao family.
However, the changes of the times are always caught off guard. Zhongming Dingshi’s House was reduced to the point where thousands of people cast aside and reject him overnight. Mr. Miao, who was only thirteen years old at the time, instantly changed from a rich and well-clothed young master to a human being. The “bad elements” whom people shy away from, their family was forced to start an endless struggle. The difficult period had just begun, and it had already crushed Mr. Miao’s parents who had never suffered.
Mr. Miao’s father was not such a good-tempered person, and the subsequent encounters magnified the dark side of human nature. His irritable personality became worse and turned into domestic violence. Mr. Miao’s mother could not bear such a life at all. , separated from his father not long after.
Before leaving, Mr. Miao’s mother asked him if he would like to leave with her.
Mr. Miao shook his head with red eyes. He knew that his mother could only take one person away. If he went with her, then his nine-year-old brother would definitely be left behind. This dark life can be seen to an end at a glance. He can’t Let the young brother bear these.
Later, Mr. Miao Lao’s mother took his younger brother Miao Hui away, time passed, that period of gloomy time gradually passed, his father passed away, and he also married and had children. Although life took away some things, it did not overwhelm him , the days are slowly getting better.
Thirty years later, Mr. Miao’s younger brother came back. At that time, Miao Hui had changed his mother’s surname and became Yang Hui. At that time, Yang Hui Group was just a hotel with three chain stores, but it was very difficult for Miao Hui who had been living in the countryside. For Mr. Miao, that is already the best.
The brothers met each other, and Yang Hui stayed in the village for a few days. He remembered the kindness of his brother for letting him and his mother leave. He strongly invited him to take his wife and daughter to the city and live with them.
Even though Mr. Miao is happy for his younger brother to come back, he is almost middle-aged and has spent most of his life in the countryside. He married a wife and had children here, and gets along well with his neighbors. He doesn’t want to leave, let alone live with his younger brother’s family. After thinking about it, he refused, Yang Hui didn’t force it, and left with regret.
At this point in the story, although there are ups and downs, it is also plain and warm.
However, the story did not end. Within two years, Mr. Miao’s daughter who was about to get married accidentally fell into the water and died. Under the grief, he unexpectedly welcomed a child again. The birth of the newborn faded away the shadow of his daughter’s death. , and because they once lost a child, Mr. Miao and his wife want to give the second child the best.
This kid is smart and competitive, and his grades have been among the best since he was a child. Even the poor teaching level in the village failed to hold him back. He was admitted to a top domestic university. Work in Yanghui Group, which is well-known in the industry.
Perhaps it was to repay his elder brother’s concession back then. Yang Hui was very kind to this nephew. The uncle and nephew got along very well, and Mr. Miao Lao’s son was indeed very talented in business. In just a few years, he brought Yang Hui to the market. Yanghui Group has been transferred to Yanghui International, and its position in the company has become more stable.
Unexpectedly, this touched the nerves of Yang Hui’s three biological sons, making them extra vigilant against this cousin, and kept making small moves in private.
Mr. Miao’s son was oppressed by the company both openly and secretly. In order to maintain the pure and close relationship between his father, uncle and nephew, he resigned.
Yang Hui tried to persuade him to stay for many times, demoted his two sons, and even kicked the eldest son out of the company, but Mr. Miao’s son still chose to leave.
But his departure did not make the other three people let go of their guard. Even if he had gone to another company, he still tried to test him from time to time, especially the eldest son who was kicked out of the company held a grudge against him. At the birthday banquet, he was drunk openly and aboveboard, and then sent a club woman to sleep with him.
In order to make matters worse, the eldest son also asked his wife to bring the child to the hotel to find him in his name. It was conceivable that his wife took the child and walked away after a big fight with him. He had no time to explain They hurriedly drove to chase after them, but what no one expected was that they encountered a series of car accidents on the road. A family of four, except for Miao Miao, who hadn’t returned to visit her grandfather before, three of them died.
The loss of a middle-aged daughter and the loss of a son or grandson in the elderly, this blow almost killed Mr. Miao. After he survived, he completely cut off contact with the Yang family and raised his granddaughter alone.
After hearing this, Jiang Chen remained silent and didn’t know what to say.
Mr. Miao seemed to let go a lot, and sighed: “I’m old, I won’t live long, Miao Miao is still young, I can’t leave her alone, I don’t want her to know about the hatred between adults, and there must be someone take care of her…”
At this point, Jiang Chen understood Mr. Miao’s purpose for asking him to find Yang Hui, and he also knew that he had to help.
