There was a mess in the nursing home.
Old Mrs. Gao is old, so falling is not a trivial matter.
Fortunately, both of them were calm enough. Lin Yuewei stepped forward to observe the old lady's injuries, and Gu Yanqiu went in front to call someone to take her to the hospital.
Old Mrs. Gao fell from the wheelchair and did not fall into a coma. She grabbed her hand in vain on the ground, and then suddenly fixed her eyes on Lin Yuewei's face, pounced forward, and grabbed her ankle.
The word was repeated: "No...no..."
Lin Yue gently approached her ear: "Mom, what did you say?"
"No...in...no...dad..." Old Mrs. Gao's eyes rolled down her tears and she burst into tears.
Lin Yue was very sad, and only heard her repeating the words stubbornly. It was not until the people in the front yard rushed over that she raised her hand and wiped her eyes. After the medical staff checked the basic situation, they helped someone to carry Mrs. Gao into the car to the hospital.
Gu Yanqiu was also shocked and held Lin Yuewei's hand along the way. The two followed the car to the hospital.

"There are two fractures. The other ones are fine. The old lady is lucky and she didn't fall into her brain. She will stay in the hospital for a while and take a good rest. However, the old man's bones are not as good as those of young people, so he may have to lie longer. In addition, the condition will probably be worse in the future. This is uncertain, depending on the subsequent recovery."
"Thank you, the doctor."
"You are welcome."
Gu Yanqiu's heart, which had been hanging for most of the day, finally relaxed, and took off his limbs and took a step back. Lin Yuewei beside her hugged her shoulders and let her lean in her arms.
The ward was filled with the smell of disinfectant water, and Old Mrs. Gao was hanging water on her arm, and various instruments for detecting vital signs were operating normally. The scene that happened a few hours ago did not dissipate in her mind for a long time.
"Don't bother grandma to rest, let's go outside." Lin Yuewei helped her out, pushed her shoulders with both hands, and let her sit on the bench outside.
Gu Yanqiu bent down slightly, lowered his head, and supported his elbows on his knees. His mind was messy and he couldn't understand.
A bottle of mineral water suddenly appeared in her sight. Gu Yanqiu looked up, Lin Yuewei handed her the water that had unscrewed the bottle cap and said, "Drink some water, your lips are dry."
Gu Yanqiu took it, took a sip of moistening her lips, and asked her: "Do you know what happened just now?"
Gu Yanqiu asked why Mrs. Gao fell down.
Lin Yuewei sat down beside her, opened another bottle of water, shook her head and said, "No."
Like Gu Yanqiu, both of them were facing Mrs. Gao at that time. Moreover, they only had each other in their eyes at that time, so they could not tolerate Mrs. Gao. By the time they realized that Mrs. Gao was already on the ground.
Lin Yuewei: "But after grandma fell down, she said something, but I don't know what it means."
"What did you say?"
Lin Yuewei retweeted the fragmented words.
"No, here, no, dad?"
"right."
"The last word should refer to my grandfather." Gu Yanqiu pondered for a while and said.
"What do the first three represent? These should be a few words in the middle of a complete sentence."
"I don't know." Gu Yanqiu lowered his head, pressed his temple with his fingers, and said to himself, "I don't know."
Lin Yuewei raised her hand to comfort her.
Gu Yanqiu whispered: "Do you think I'm worth it?"
"What's worth it?" Lin Yue stopped in the air with a slight hand.
"My grandma is so old, and I want to expose her scars again and again, and make her what she is like now. The past has passed long ago, so why should I be so persistent in finding an answer? My father is so hiding it from me, did he know that this matter is very involved and stop the loss in time, and everything is for my own good?"
"I don't know." Lin Yuewei paused and replied.
Gu Yanqiu lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly. Human joys and sorrows are not consistent. She herself cannot find the answer, so why do she pray to get affirmation from others?
Lin Yuewei said: "But..."
Gu Yanqiu looked up at her, her lips were pale and her eyes were fragile as before.
Lin Yue curled her fingers slightly, and almost couldn't help but want her lips to look better. She lowered her eyes and said seriously: "I only have one principle to do things like this. If I don't do it, will I regret it? If the answer is yes, then I will do it without hesitation, regardless of the consequences. For your reference only."
"You just hesitated for a moment when you encounter difficulties. I believe you are not trying to ask for my opinion, but want someone to tell you that you are right to do this so that you can continue to investigate." Lin Yuewei looked at her eyes with concentration and said softly, "Then, okay, I tell you that you are right to do this. Just as you said that if I kill someone, you will completely respect my wishes, I completely agree with you, no matter what you do."
Gu Yanqiu looked at her for a few seconds, suddenly raised her eyebrows easily, raised her head and poured half a bottle of water in one breath. When the bottle was opened, the smile on the corner of her lips was filled with transparent water droplets: "You are right."
Lin Yuewei let her eyes leave the corner of her mouth, touched the mineral water bottle with her, and smiled and said, "Cheers."
Gu Yanqiu said: "I've done half a bottle, it's your turn."
Lin Yue smiled: "I'm not that thirsty, and I'm not worried." She took a sip, held up the bottle, as a greeting.
Gu Yanqiu looked at her, and many emotions flashed in his eyes, with relief, pleasure, and the kind of cherishing and satisfaction that he was hard to find in life. After a long time, she turned her voice and looked at the wall in front and said, "When my grandma is in better health, I plan to take her to Yanning. The medical conditions and nursing homes there are much better than here. What do you think?"
"Well." Lin Yuewei issued an unknown syllable word.
"Um?"
"Yan Ning has your father, Gu Feiquan and He Songjun. Your father is okay. What if He Songjun and his son are not good for your grandma? Who knows where the bottom line of their mother and son is?"
"I was negligent." Gu Yanqiu's expression became serious, dispelling this idea.
"She has to be in a long time for her fracture, so why not stay here first and hire a better caregiver to not treat the elderly too badly. When the affairs of the Gu family are stable in the future, it will not be too late to pick her up to Yanning."
"This is OK. I will hire someone from Yanning for a high salary."
"Um."
The two of them were outside the ward with a bottle of mineral water, and chatted about the beautiful scenery of watching the stars and the moon.
Lin Yuewei asked, "By the way, when you came out before, you said you found the photo, where is it?"
"I didn't take the photo album, I just took all the photos on it." Gu Yanqiu took out his mobile phone and clicked on the album of the mobile phone. The entire screen on the interface was filled with old photos with a very sense of age.
The two of them accidentally turned their heads to each other, turning over one by one, and their breathing was close to each other.
Gu Yanqiu pointed to one of them and said, "Most of them were from childhood. This one was a family of three, and my mother was in the middle."
Lin Yuewei looked at the photos and looked at Gu Yanqiu, saying, "It can be seen from the eyebrows and eyes that look a little like it."
Chen Huaiyu's beauty is inherited from his parents. Even after decades in the photo, Gu Yanqiu's grandfather was wearing an old-style vest with trousers and leather shoes underneath. Yushu was in the wind, and Gao Limei was wearing a cheongsam with a slim figure and beautiful appearance. The two were not out of date.
It can be seen that both of them have a little restrained expression, and they probably don’t wear such clothes often.
"How was grandma and grandpa's financial situation before? What did they do?"
Gu Yanqiu shook his head: "I'm still checking. Grandma has been moving here for 10 or 20 years. She comes alone. She never chats about this, and no one knows where her hometown is, including Cheng Yong. Cheng Yong said he asked him inadvertently before, but grandma didn't say it."
Lin Yue frowned slightly.
This means that although I found Gao Limei, I still don’t know where Chen Huaiyu was born and raised. I don’t know where Chen Huaiyu’s real hometown is, and I can’t understand what happened back then.
"So the most urgent thing is to find your mother's real hometown."
"Yes, Mr. Liu has already gone to find it. The old man's accent is difficult to change. He is starting from the accent that grandma usually speaks."
Lin Yuewei continued to look over the next photo.
From the photos of different years, you can feel that this is a very happy family of three. The young Chen Huaiyu is quite naughty. There are photos of him being taken to dig a bird's nest in a tree. The photos of Chen's father and mother are very intimate, and the love that cannot be hidden is in each other's eyes.
When he flipped over one of them, Lin Yuewei's hand had already stroked, and he immediately paused and pulled back: "Wait a minute."
Gu Yanqiu: "What's wrong?"
Lin Yuewei pointed to the background of the photo, and rode on the wall and laughed happily behind Chen Huaiyu, squinted his eyes and said, "Is there a line of small words here?"
"where?"
Lin Yuewei put the photo to the largest. There was a big stone lying down behind Xiao Shen Huaiyu, with blurred handwriting engraved on it. She immediately started to whine and asked excitedly: "Is there any way to reprocess this photo?"
Gu Yanqiu didn't understand why.
Lin Yuewei said excitedly: "I have watched some movies and documentaries about rural areas before. Some villages will place a large stone at the entrance of the village, with the names of towns and villages engraved on it."
Gu Yanqiu was stunned for a moment, and immediately got up and went to call Mr. Liu.
After being excited, Lin Yuewei calmed down and walked over and said, "But I'm not sure if this stone was carved, but it's always a clue."
Gu Yanqiu was busy explaining to Mr. Liu the location of the photo album in Gao Limei’s room. The photos taken by the mobile phone were not as clear as the physical ones. She gestured to Lin Yuewei and signaled that she knew.
But her expression had already taken what Lin Yuewei said as affirmation. She had a strong intuition that the words on it must be the address of her mother's hometown.
Mr. Liu was also very surprised to get this clue. God knew that he had been clueless for so long. Now he was sleepy and someone gave him a pillow. He immediately went to Gao Limei's room to get a photo album.
Director Fang was quite frightened. The old lady was stimulated for two consecutive days and fell into the hospital the next day. Fortunately, it was fine, and her family was in charge. If it were other situations, she would be one and two big.
After Director Fang confirmed the old lady's safety in the hospital, he went back to the nursing home to call Gu Huai and told him everything about yesterday and today.
Gu Huai coughed so hard that the blue veins on the back of his hand holding the phone were all protruding.
"I understand." Gu Huai hung up the phone without any reaction.
The office was silent, and more and more sense of powerlessness came up, just like standing by the cliff watching the lit leads burning silently towards him. In a dilemma, Gu Huai sat in a wide office chair, lowered his head, and turned himself into a speechless sculpture.
"Mr. Gu." The secretary outside the door called him in the inside.
"explain."
"The eldest young master is here."
"Let him in."
"yes."
"Wait." Gu Huai suddenly said.
The secretary waits patiently.
