The Pentium Era - South to North

On the day of the third grade of junior high school, many people suddenly came to the ward. Meng Ping's sister and brother-in-law came from Wuxi. In the afternoon, Tan Shuzhen and Xiaofang showed up with a large group of people. Zhang Chen was frightened. Jump and ask:

"Why are you back from Sanya?"

Tan Shuzhen looked at Zhang Chen and smiled bitterly: "The pressure is too great. If we don't come again, Xiaofang and I will be scolded to death by them."

Lao Zhang saw Zhang Chen and glared at him. Zhang Chen's mother scolded from the side: "Chenchen, you are so shameless. You didn't tell us about such a big thing as Meng Ping being hospitalized?!"

Xiaoshu and Yao Fen said: "We don't know."

Xiang Nan snorted: "Don't tell me either."

Teacher Tan and Zhang Chen said: "Zhang Chen, you really didn't do this well. What did Meng Ping say? We have also had dinner together for so many years. What do you mean by sending us to Sanya? We understand. , can you still eat?"

Tan Shuzhen spread her hands and said, "See, we have no choice but to bring them directly from Sanya to Shanghai."

Zhang Chen quickly raised his hand and said, "I was wrong, I was wrong."

A large group of old people surrounded Meng Ping, and several old ladies had red eyes. From Meng Ping's current situation, they all saw that Meng Ping's days were numbered.

When he walked to the sofa and sat down, Lao Liu sighed softly and said, "Oh, this damn guy is not dead. He is not damned, why is he going to die?"

Zhuangzi's mother glanced at him and said, "You finally said something humane."

Xiangnan walked to Meng Ping's bedside and said to him with tears in his eyes: "Uncle Meng, you need to get better."

Meng Ping looked at her and said with difficulty: "Xiang Nan, you are so tall and beautiful..."

"Uncle Meng, when you get better, I'll invite you to our show."

Meng Ping nodded and said yes.

The happiest thing was Little Nail. She saw that among so many people, there were finally children younger than her, namely the children of Xiaoshu and Yao Fen, Xiaowu and Xu Qiaoxin, and there were also some older ones than her, the second-rate ones. His son Xiao Gulu.

Several children quickly started playing together.

Everyone was settled in the Kunlun Hotel. In the evening, after dinner, they came over to see Meng Ping in twos and threes. They came and went, and there was no one in the ward.

Li Yang and Ye Yilan also came back. Li Yang unfolded the signed transfer agreement and showed it to Meng Ping. Meng Ping nodded and twitched the corner of his mouth.

At night, there were many people accompanying her in the ward. Zhang Chen, Li Yang, Erhuo and Xiao Wu were all in the ward and refused to leave. However, even Erhuo didn't mention the late night snack.

Zhang Chen sat on the edge of Meng Ping's bed and watched over him, driving everyone else to the sofa to chat.

At about twelve o'clock, Meng Ping suddenly took off his oxygen mask. Zhang Chen wanted to put it back on. Meng Ping kept shaking his head, trying hard to keep his eyes open. His eyeballs protruded and his eyelids turned up. Then, soon, all he saw in his eyes were the whites of his eyes. Zhang Chen was startled, grabbed Meng Ping's hand and shouted:

"Meng Ping, Meng Ping!"

Everyone on the sofa gathered around, and Lao Tao also got up from the folding bed, ran over, took one look and shouted: "No, Master Meng is leaving!"

Zhang Chen shouted to Li Yang: "Call Chen Yaqin quickly!"

This is to let her take one last look.

Xiao Wu had already run out to call the doctor. Before the doctor and Chen Yaqin arrived, Meng Ping's neck suddenly stiffened, and there was a growl in his throat. Zhang Chen heard Meng Ping sigh deeply.

Zhang Chen shouted: "Meng Ping Meng Ping!"

Erhuo and Li Yang also shouted: "Lao Meng, Lao Meng!"

The doctor and nurse walked in quickly. The doctor held Meng Ping's other hand and took his pulse. He put the stethoscope on Meng Ping's chest to listen. Zhang Chen looked at him and the doctor shook his head.

The nurse asked: "Dr. Wang, do you want more..."

The doctor shook his head again and said, "No need."

He looked at his watch and said to the nurse: "Record it, twelve twenty-nine."

The second-rate guy squatted on the ground and started to cry.

Lao Tao sighed and said to Zhang Chen and others: "Master Meng is also happy. So many people came to see him off today."

The nurse put away the oxygen mask and everything else, and the doctor said to Lao Tao, "Leave it to you?"

Lao Tao nodded.

The doctors and nurses went out, and Lao Tao and Zhang Chen said, "Help me, wipe Master Meng clean and change his clothes while he's still cold."

Zhang Chen said yes, and Xiao Wu said, I will also come to help.

"Please help me get a basin of warm water and bring a clean towel from the cabinet." Lao Tao said.

He opened the quilt and used scissors to cut off Meng Ping's patient clothes. Zhang Chen burst into tears and saw the skinny and emaciated Meng Ping on the bed.

Lao Tao dipped a towel in warm water and wiped him. Zhang Chen and Xiao Wu helped him turn over. Lao Tao muttered something:

"Master Meng, Master Meng, so many friends are here to see you off, so just go happily."

There was a commotion in the corridor. Zhang Chen and Li Yang said, "Go and stop them. Then let Chen Yaqin in alone and tell them that Meng Ping has left."

Li Yang ran outside the door. Zhang Chen and Lao Tao said, "Master Tao, wait a moment."

Lao Tao stopped and Zhang Chen covered Meng Ping with the quilt.

Chen Yaqin rushed in, threw herself on Meng Ping and started crying. There were also cries in the corridor outside.

Lao Tao walked to Zhang Chen and whispered to him: "Hurry up, it will get hard later and the clothes will be difficult to wear."

Zhang Chen nodded, walked over, pulled Chen Yaqin up, and said to her, "Chen Yaqin, go and take a look. Meng Ping usually likes to wear those clothes."

Zhang Chen half pushed and half pulled Chen Yaqin to the cabinet. Chen Yaqin took out a pack of clothes that had been prepared for a long time. Zhang Chen kicked the second-rate guy who was still squatting there crying and said to him, You accompany Chen Yaqin to wait outside.

Erhuo stood up and helped Chen Yaqin out.

Zhang Chen went back with the clothes. The three of them helped Meng Ping put on his clothes, pants, socks and shoes. Lao Tao then took out a set of shrouds and hats from the cabinet. Zhang Chen looked at these things a little funny. He He Lao Tao said:

"Master Tao, no need. Meng Ping doesn't believe this either, so that's all."

Lao Tao shook his head and said, "No, there are rules in the world, and there are rules in the underworld. If Master Meng goes like this, he will be bullied by them."

Zhang Chen stopped talking immediately. Who knows the rules of the underworld, but at this time, people become superstitious and feel that they would rather believe what they have or not, as long as Meng Ping is not bullied.

The three people then helped Meng Ping put on the shroud. Lao Tao took a thin red quilt, wrapped Meng Ping well, and tied it tightly with the top, middle and bottom ribbons.

Then they put on the longevity hat and tied the laces, and the three of them arranged Meng Ping on the bed.

Zhang Chen looked a little weird at this image, and still wanted to cover Meng Ping with a quilt. Lao Tao said, "You can't cover him. Master Meng won't be able to walk if he covers him."

Zhang Chen stopped quickly, as if Meng Ping really couldn't walk anymore.

Lao Tao and Xiao Wu said, okay, let them come in and take a look.

Everyone in the corridor came in, and everyone was crying around Meng Ping. Xiao Dingzi saw so many people crying, and then looked at her father lying there motionless. She didn't know what happened, and she wanted to cry too. Little Gulu and said to her:

"Shh, your dad is asleep, don't disturb him."

Little Nail quickly shut up, but after holding it in for two or three minutes, he finally burst into tears.

Zhang Chen and the other men all retreated to the back. Lao Tao asked Zhang Chen, had the funeral home been called?

Li Yang said: "The nurse has already done it."

Lao Tao nodded.

Zhang Chen asked Lao Tao: "Is this all right?"

Lao Tao said, "Okay, let's wait for the funeral home's car to arrive."

More than half an hour later, two staff from the funeral home arrived pushing a stainless steel stretcher cart. Regardless of the people inside still crying around Meng Ping, they shouted:

"Give me, let me."

The crying people didn't know what was going on, so they got out of the way. Two people carried Meng Ping onto the stretcher and were about to go outside. Qian Fang shivered and shouted:

"Where are you taking him?"

The staff of the funeral home rolled her eyes, and Lao Tao quickly said: "Go to the funeral home, go to the funeral home. When people leave, they have to be sent to the funeral home."

Chen Yaqin cried and chased after her. Lao Tao and Qian Fang said, "Quickly go and stop the family members."

Qian Fang woke up and hugged Chen Yaqin from behind.

The staff of the funeral home pushed the cart toward the freight elevator at the top of the corridor under the watchful eyes of many people coming out of the many doors on both sides. Zhang Chen and Li Yang followed.

After entering the elevator, the two people looked at Zhang Chen and Li Yang, and then at each other. They seemed to be wondering, why are these two people following?

On the first floor, at the side door of the building, a funeral parlor's van was parked there. Even the van had been backed up and the rear of the van was backed toward the door. One of the two people opened the rear door. Inside was an iron cabinet. They put Meng Ping in it. He pushed the iron cabinet, then put the stretcher cart away and stuffed it into the carriage.

With a "bang" sound, the car door was closed.

The two of them were very skilled in all their movements, and every step was very fast, without even saying a word.

Zhang Chen asked: "Is this all right?"

One of them looked at him and asked, "How?"

Zhang Chen asked: "Where to send him?"

Another said: "Where to go? It's frozen in the cold storage."

The two people got into the car and were about to leave. Zhang Chen chased after them and asked, "Are we following you?"

The other party was confused when asked: "What are you doing in the middle of the night? During work time tomorrow, take the death certificate from the hospital and go to our lobby to sign the contract and set the cremation time."

Li Yang asked: "Which funeral home?"

The driver stretched out his hand and knocked on the door: "Longhua."

The car started and drove away. Zhang Chen stood there blankly. He looked up at the sky. There was nothing in the sky, not even the sparse stars. It was overcast.

Zhang Chen felt empty in his heart, as if he heard his own voice saying, "Is this all right?"

Yes, he always felt that when a person came to this world, walked so many roads, did so many things, experienced ups and downs, and tasted so many tastes, it seemed that it shouldn't be so simple. Just leave as soon as you say, and that’s it? Isn't this too concise?

But if it’s not like this, so what can it be? “How can it be?”

Li Yang patted him and told him, let's go.

The two of them went back with a lonely look, took the freight elevator upstairs, and walked to the door of Meng Ping's ward. They unexpectedly found that the door of the room was open and the lights inside were dark.

Zhang Chen reached out and turned on the light. The two of them were surprised. They saw that everything inside had been taken away, except for an empty bed frame. Even the sanitation had been done and the floor had been mopped.

Zhang Chen immediately understood that the ward he came to every day had nothing to do with him. Everything about Meng Ping had been cleaned up. Tomorrow, there would be new patients and new visitors here to accompany him. Night people.

"Hey, who's going inside?" a nurse shouted as she walked over. She walked to the door and saw them and said, "It's you."

Li Yang asked the nurse: "Where are those other people?"

"They've gone downstairs," the nurse said.
