Infinite Postman/Dreadful Postman

After all, there are other things to do.

At this time, there was the buzzing of a car outside, Zhao Ke took a look, and it happened that Liao Qiu had come back.

Looking at the time, it's already 4.30pm now.

It took so long to devour a stamp by myself.

"It seems that it is safer to swallow stamps in the Great Xia Ding in the future!"

Zhao Ke reminded himself.

Go downstairs and Liao Qiu opens the door.

I saw Liao Qiu walking in from the outside carrying big and small bags, sweating profusely.

I thought these things were better to buy.

But I didn't know that I ran all over the city, but I didn't buy everything.

There are many things in it, which are relatively out of the way.

For example, old cinnabar is not available in most longevity stores, and it is not popular now.

Only by running out of the urban area and going to several surrounding counties can I find it.

Zhao Ke checked and found that they were basically right.

Carrying the things, he walked into the old lady's room, and this time Liao Qiu followed behind.

Walking in cautiously, I saw the ghostly characters painted on the wall.

Although he couldn't understand it, he also understood that the matter seemed to be more serious than he thought.

He looked at his grandmother sitting on the bed, motionless, wondering if it was because the light was too dim that his grandmother's face looked abnormally pale.

Two paper figurines.

It was carefully placed beside the old lady's bed.

Zhao Ke took out the candles he bought and took a look at the red candles. There were dragons and phoenixes painted on the candles.

Seems like something for a wedding.

"No way, a simple red candle, no! I went to the county and that's what I got."

Liao Qiu had a bitter look on his face, and it could be seen that he had put his heart into it.

But now, people are not popular to light candles, because it is prone to fire, and people have a strong awareness of fire prevention.

In addition, the current national power supply capacity is better, even in the summer when the air conditioner is fully turned on, there are very few power outages.

The scene of the entire street being cut off without electricity for more than ten years, and the whole family, with their children, going to the street to enjoy the shade has long since disappeared.

So candles, this thing, are getting less and less.

Not to mention, it's still a red candle.

"It's okay, just use it!"

The person who spoke was not Zhao Ke, but the old lady sitting on the bed.

I saw the old lady half-closed her eyes, and she no longer saw the radiant spirit of the past.

On the contrary, it gives people the feeling that they really get old all at once, and even their speech becomes sluggish and weak.

"grandmother!!"

Seeing his mother-in-law woke up, Liao Qiu hurried to the bed and reached out to hold her hand.

However, with this pull, Liao Qiu was startled. His grandmother's hand was as cold as a lump of ice.

This time Liao Qiu became a little anxious, and stepped forward to grab his grandmother's arm: "No, why don't we go to the hospital, now that technology is so advanced, you must be fine."

But when Liao Qiu pulled, he didn't pull his mother-in-law.

It was as if my mother-in-law was sitting there, her body became very heavy, and I couldn't move her.

The mother-in-law pushed his hand away, shook her head and said, "No, after tonight, it will be fine."

Liao Qiu originally wanted to continue persuading, but was dragged back by Zhao Ke.

"Don't move around, your grandma is going through a death test right now, you will only kill her if you send her to the hospital!"

Liao Qiu's expression darkened, with mixed feelings in his heart, and he suddenly felt regretful.

If he had known that this day would come, he would have followed his grandmother honestly and learned the skills of the Yin people.

At least not like now, nothing can help.

Seemingly seeing the guilty expression on Liao Qiu's face, the old lady put her hand on Liao Qiu's shoulder and touched Liao Qiu's generous shoulder.

His pale face showed relief and kindness, and his eyes seemed to be caught in some kind of memory.

"When you were young, you were so small. I could hold your shoulder with one hand. Now...you have grown up."

Speaking of this, the old lady vaguely remembered that at that time, Liao Qiu, who had a small dark face, was thin and short, wearing a small vest every day, running and making trouble in the woods outside, his small face was stuffed black, and he only had one tooth. , especially white.

Now, in the blink of an eye, the child who was still entangled with her back then has turned into a young man.

It is said that time flies, and old people will envy young people.

But when I watch my children grow up one by one, I always feel extremely proud in my heart.

"Grandma! Don't worry, when you recover, I will find a girlfriend, get married in a down-to-earth manner, and give birth to a great-grandson for you."

The old lady laughed dumbly, the love and reluctance in her eyes made her hold Liao Qiu's hand tightly.

Zhao Ke retreated from the room, not to delay the communication with his mother-in-law and grandson.

Going out of the window, I looked at the aroma of cooking that began to overflow from the kitchens in the community.

Every house was brightly lit, and from the living room in the opposite building, the laughter of two children could be heard from time to time, as well as the scolding sound of their parents telling them to wash their hands after eating.

Looking at it, Zhao Ke was a little dazed.

I can't remember the last time I sat and ate with Reco.

Zhao Ke stood in front of the window stupidly by himself, his figure in the dim room, if you didn't look carefully, it seemed to be just a vague shadow.
