Chapter 101 [Xiajinmen] (Part 2)
Luo Lie and Arnold were surprised when they saw the Japanese girl. They almost recognized that the Japanese girl was the blue magician Ji Lan Ximei, the eighth shopkeeper of Langya Village. It was too late for Luo Lie to avoid it. The Japanese girl's eyes happened to look at him. Luo Lie secretly shouted that it was not good. The enemy met on a narrow road, and they were afraid that something would happen today. However, the other party's eyes did not stop on his face for too long, and his calm and comfortable expression did not stir up any waves. He followed Fang Kangwei into the door of Fangyuan Department Store in small steps.
When they left, Arnold winked at Luo Lie in surprise as if he had discovered a new continent.
Luo Lie knew what he wanted to say, frowned and whispered: "Leave here first."
After the three of them left the door of Fangyuan Department Store, Arnold hurriedly said: "Lan Ximei, that Japanese woman is Lan Ximei!"
Fang Kewen was confused when he heard this. He had never met Lan Ximei before, nor had he even heard of the name, so he was deeply puzzled by Arnold's words.
Luo Lie shook his head and said, "There are many people in this world who look similar. She clearly saw me just now, but she didn't react at all."
Arnold laughed: "Reaction? What kind of reaction do you want her to react? Do women have to react when they see you?" He obviously misinterpreted Luo Lie's meaning.
Luo Lie was sure that the Japanese girl saw her, but her expression and even her eyes did not change at all. If it were Lan Ximei, it would not have been possible to collect it so deeply. Moreover, the Japanese girl beside Fang Kangwei gave him a completely different feeling. Lan Ximei was charming and enchanting, cruel and ruthless, and showed a kind of evil spirit that charmed the public from head to toe. This Japanese girl was as elegant as a chrysanthemum and gentle as water, giving people a kind of gentleness and gracefulness of a small family. Luo Lie has always believed in his intuition.
In fact, it was not difficult to inquire about this matter. He waved to the newspaper boy who was selling along the street, handed him three copper coins, bought two newspapers, and took the opportunity to ask about the identity of the Japanese girl just now. From the newspaper boy, he learned that the Japanese girl was Fang Kangwei's newly married third concubine Ryoko Matsuyuki. It is said that the two met when Fang Kangwei was going to Japan for official business. A month ago, Ryoko Matsuyuki arrived in Tianjin on a boat from Japan. From the incident, it is impossible to tell whether Fang Kangwei's Japanese wife and Lan Ximei were the same person, but there are such similar people in this world. Are they twin sisters? But they are of different nationalities, so this possibility is not great.
Fang Kewen listened and was extremely puzzled. Grandpa was extremely disgusted with the Japanese. With his stubborn temperament, how could he allow Fang Kangwei to marry a Japanese woman in the door? He couldn't help but ask: "How could Fang Kangwei marry a Japanese wife?"
The newspaper boy said: "Now he is the master of the Fang family, so he naturally does whatever he wants."
Fang Kewen felt more and more strange. The most authoritative person in the Fang family was his grandfather Fang Shiming, and the actual person in charge of the Fang family was his father Fang Kangcheng. When did Fang Kangwei, who had never been favored, become the real master of the Fang family?
The newspaper boy said: "It seems that you don't understand the affairs of the Fang family. Fang Kangcheng, the eldest son of the Fang family, passed away from illness two years ago. Old Master Fang was overly sad and hit it again, so the Fang family is now in charge of Fang Kangwei."
Fang Kewen heard this and felt like five thunders rushing to the top. He was shocked and sad, and he couldn't even hold the civilization stick in his hand and fell to the ground with a clang.
Luo Lie saw his incompetence and was afraid of attracting others' attention, so he smiled and sent the newspaper boy away.
Arnold picked up the civilized stick from the ground and handed it to Fang Kewen. Fang Kewen walked towards the corner of the wall with difficulty with his civilized stick, turned around, hunched over, and his shoulders kept trembling.
Luo Lie looked at his back silently, expressing deep sympathy in his heart. From the words of the boy just now, we can know that in the five years when Fang Kewen disappeared, the Fang family had a huge change. Three years ago, Fang Kewen's father died of illness. In the same year, his grandfather, Fang family's old master Fang Shiming, also suffered a stroke and was paralyzed. The Fang family is no longer the same as he left the same way as before.
Fang Kewen's heart was as if he was walking down from Tianjin Railway Station just now. He had made up his mind to return to Tianjin this time. He should not recognize his relatives publicly. As long as he glanced at them from a distance and was sure that they were safe, he would be satisfied. However, he did not expect that the separation five years ago had become a lifelong regret, and his father had died. Thinking of the earnest teachings of his father, Fang Kewen's tears were raining. He did not want his companions to see the fragile side of his back, so he could only cry to the corner and feel sad.
Arnold looked at Fang Kewen with some concern and whispered to Luo Lie: "Do you want to go over and persuade him?"
Luo Lie shook his head and said, "Let him be quiet, Arnold, you are here to accompany him, I'll find someone to inquire about the situation of the Fang family." In fact, Luo Lie understood that there would be no result after asking. Although Fang Kewen had experienced life and death with them, his underground residence in the past five years had already made him hide his heart deep and never easily reveal his thoughts to others.
At Renci Hospital in Tianjin, Old Master Fang Shiming was sitting in a wheelchair and looked at the gray sky sadly. The old man who once dominated Tianjin has now become a useless person who cannot take care of himself. He has been paralyzed for two years and has been ill in bed for many years, causing his right limb to shrink to varying degrees. Originally, he had been receiving treatment at home until the symptoms worsened half a year ago and could not even take care of himself. His son Fang Kangwei sent him to the hospital for treatment. According to German experts at Renci Hospital, the old man had begun to develop symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. This disease will become worse and worse with time, and in the end, even his close relatives can't recognize him.
Before sending the old man to the hospital, he could not even call Fang Kangwei's name.
He is rich in the mountains and has distant relatives, and poor in the city without anyone asking about him. Although Fang Shiming is not poor, he is no longer the prestige of Tianjin. Now he is just a foolish old man, and he can't even say the complete words. He needs to take care of food, drink, defecation and urination. For him, the happiest time of the day is to be able to sit on the lawn of the hospital to enjoy the warm winter sunshine. However, today it seems that this small wish cannot be realized. The current situation is simply worse than death for Fang Shiming, who has been strong all his life.
The clouds blocked the sun and the wind was very strong. The nurse wanted to push him back to the ward as soon as possible, but the old man's stubborn roar forced her to give up such efforts.
Luo Lie and Fang Kewen walked into Renci Hospital together. They thought it was not difficult to visit the patient, but when they got here, they found that it was not easy to enter the special care area without the hospital's permission. However, this was not difficult for Luo Lie, who was nimble, to take a doctor's uniform, pretended to be a doctor, and let Fang Kewen dress up as a patient and sit in a wheelchair, push Fang Kewen into a swagger.
There were not many patients in the special care area. Fang Kewen saw his grandfather who was also sitting in a wheelchair far away. After five years of not seeing him, the old man became much older and haggard. His gray hair, which was now completely white, was curled up in the wheelchair, tilted his head, and his turbid eyes stared at the dim sky at the forty-five degrees. The hospital did not take care of the demented old man as he used to, and only had a nurse around him.
Luo Lie reminded Fang Kewen: "Don't be excited, I'll go and pull the nurse beside him away." He waved to Fang Shiming's nurse and said: "Hey, come here!"
The nurse was stunned, convinced that Luo Lie was calling him, and looked at him with vigilance: "Are you calling me?"
Luo Lie walked over with a smile: "Yes, I am a new doctor from this hospital. We should work together in the future, let's get to know each other."
The nurse looked at the young and handsome doctor in front of her, and her heart was beating faster. She walked over with a pretty face and shy face. She looked at the young and handsome man, but she felt that his eyes were full of addictive charm. She looked at it for a moment and seemed to be addicted to it. She heard Luo Lie's gentle and kind voice in her ears, "What's your name..."
Fang Kewen saw Luo Lie and the nurse soon got together. He didn't know what topic they were talking about, but the nurse had obviously forgotten the matter of taking care of the patient, and looked at Luo Lie as if she had lost her soul. Luo Lie made a gesture to Fang Kewen. It was not difficult to hypnotize a young nurse. At this moment, he had succeeded. With his personal charm and means, it was not too difficult to confuse a young nurse who was not very experienced.
Fang Kewen understood that he should have succeeded, so he got up and limped towards his grandfather.
Fang Shiming was still immersed in his own world and did not realize that someone was approaching. Fang Kewen, who had a scar on his face, looked at his grandfather in front of him, forcibly resisted his excitement, and whispered: "Ten years of driving the sea, the cold color of the sea, and the lonely minister looked at Chenluan here. The blood in his heart was sprinkled on the Qianfeng Qiuye Pill." He had to express his identity in the shortest time.
Fang Kewen has already learned about his grandfather's condition and knows that even if he appears in front of his grandfather's original appearance, the old man may not be able to recognize his appearance. The poem he recites is exactly one of his grandfather's favorites. This poem "Wangquetai" was written by Qi Jiguang, a famous patriotic general in the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the first poem taught to him by his grandfather. The old man hated the Japanese invaders the most, and used the past to describe the present. He expressed his thoughts through this poem by Qi Jiguang, a famous general in the anti-Japanese war. However, he was not sure that he could awaken his grandfather. After all, his grandfather had Alzheimer's disease, and he didn't know how much he remembered the past.
Fang Shiming's body trembled when he heard the poem. His face turned to Fang Kewen with difficulty. His originally turbid eyes suddenly shone for a moment, and then became dim again.
