Chapter 404 The past
Leave Lingyun Temple.
The old man insisted on going back overnight.
Li Zhigang finally persuaded him after much persuasion.
After booking a few hotel rooms, everyone was no longer sleepy and gathered together to chat.
Li Qingmin looked at Li Liang and Li Ling and said with emotion: "Time flies so fast... In the blink of an eye, a lifetime will pass."
"Liang'er, Ling'er..."
"You don't have to worry about me. Zhigang and I will go back together tomorrow."
"You two should just go home. There's no point in keeping me company."
Li Liang put out his cigarette, paused and said, "Dad, let Ling'er go back first. I'll go with you to take a look. Lanlan is also there. I haven't seen her for a long time, so I'll go see Lanlan too."
Li Ling followed suit, "Dad, I won't go with you. I have something else to do at home. Let my brother go with me. Otherwise, he'll be worried about you and won't be able to sleep."
"Yes, Dad, let big brother follow, otherwise he will be worried." Li Zhigang responded with a smile.
"What big brother?" The old man glanced at Li Zhigang and said, "You are several years older than him! These are your younger brothers and sisters!"
"Although they are not my biological children, they are just like my own children!"
"Liang'er and Ling'er are very nice to me."
"I can tell!" Li Zhigang thanked him sincerely: "Dad said that I am older than you, so I will call you brother and sister."
"Thank you...thank you for taking such good care of dad."
The next day, Li Ling left early, and the five people left just filled one car.
It was already afternoon when we returned to Li Minghui's grandmother's house.
Li Qingmin has never been so nervous in his entire life.
"Zhigang...why don't you go in first? Can your mother kick me out..."
"Grandpa, why are you still scared?" Li Minghui covered her mouth and laughed secretly: "For decades, grandma has been waiting for you to come home! When she has nothing to do, she will look at your photo and rub it with her fingertips."
"Don't worry, grandma will definitely not kick you out! It's all fate's fault, not yours."
"Hey..." Li Qingmin looked at the unfamiliar changes around him and shook his head helplessly: "You don't understand..."
"If I hadn't meddled in other people's business back then, I wouldn't have ended up like this."
"All the suffering and pain your grandma has endured over the past few decades is because of me."
"Dad..." Li Zhigang comforted him, "You are right... It's a problem of that era."
"Have you ever thought about what you would choose if you could do it again?"
"That female educated youth will die if she is not sent to the hospital. Will you save her or not?"
Li Qingmin had thought about this question countless times before he lost his memory in a car accident.
He had regretted and struggled.
But the final answer is still the same.
If he could do it again, he would still choose to save people.
His conscience prevented him from standing by and watching someone die.
Even if I knew I would be exiled to the Great Northern Wilderness...
But...I'm sorry to my wife and kids!
"Dad, when I was very young, I asked my mom." Li Zhigang supported his father and said softly, "I asked her where my dad went and why he didn't come home."
"My mother said at that time that your father went to work far away. Reclaiming wasteland is a great cause."
"As I grew older, I also heard about your past."
"I'll go find my mother and tell her that she lied to me, and I'm still complaining about you in my heart."
"In the end... do you know what my mother said?"
"How...what did you say?" Li Qingmin's lips trembled twice.
"My mom said...if she was there at the time, she would also choose to save people! She would say you did nothing wrong and that you are a good person!"
"It was just these two sentences of hers that immediately elevated your position in my heart."
"So, don't feel any burden or pressure. My mother has never blamed you..."
"Dad... let's go in. I'll hold you up a bit, keep your back straight, it's okay!"
"Okay..." Li Qingmin raised his head, leaning on the crutch in his right hand.
Li Minghui ran in first and shouted excitedly: "Grandma! Grandma! Look who's here!"
"Hey! Xiaohui, why are you back?" The old man was a little surprised, and the smile on his face froze the next second.
The room suddenly became quiet, and at this moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.
"Su...Suhua..." Li Qingmin's voice was choked with sobs, and as soon as he opened his mouth, tears streamed down.
Yu Suhua took a long time to react, and then with trembling hands, she put on the glasses hanging on her chest, as if she wanted to look at the person in front of her more carefully.
Time is both ruthless and affectionate.
What is cruel is that youth passes away and we can no longer find the same appearance as when we were young.
The good thing is that even if our youth is no longer what it used to be, we can still meet again over the years.
Seeing that grandma didn't speak for a long time, Li Minghui quickly held her shoulders with both hands: "Grandma... I found grandpa..."
Yu Suhua moved her mouth, but in the end she only uttered a "hmm..." through her nose.
She had imagined this scene countless times, but this time it came too late.
All the words in my heart have long gone with the passage of time. Finally, they are reduced to four words: "It's good to be back... It's good to be back..."
"Suhua..." Li Qingmin threw away his crutches and walked forward slowly.
Their eyes met, as if they had spoken thousands of words.
An hour later, everyone lamented the fate that had played such a trick on them.
"By the way, Grandpa! After you lost your memory, you didn't agree to this marriage at first. Why did you agree in the end?" Li Minghui asked curiously.
Li Qingmin glanced at Li Liang who was sitting opposite him and said vaguely: "I lost my memory during that period and was very upset. I also needed someone to talk to, so..."
"Dad..." Li Liang took a deep breath and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry..."
"Ling'er and I were still young at the time and didn't know much. We didn't know what happened back then."
"Later, Ling'er and I grew up and heard some rumors."
"A few days before my mother passed away, she told us everything that happened. It was my mother who let you down..."
"The last thing my mother said to me and Ling'er was that if Ling'er and I were not filial to you, she would die with regrets. Even as a ghost, she would not let Ling'er and me go..."
"Oh...what kind of person is your mother..." Li Qingmin slowly closed his eyes, feeling mixed emotions.
"You can't blame your mother. If she hadn't done that...you wouldn't have survived. In that era, it was really difficult for a widow with two children."
"In the beginning, I resented her and had a lot of opinions about her. But later, I could feel that he was really kind to me."
