At 20:46 in the evening, TV channel 55 was broadcasting the latest political headlines. Yu Ruoling sat in the chair and watched blankly.
The so-called absent-mindedness meant that, she thought to herself.
When the school was over today, Chen Youqi and Wu Yizhi suddenly fought. She don't know what was hit, but when one of them was about to swipe the other's face, he strayed and hit her in the chin.
She was completely unprepared, and accidentally bit her lower lip severely. The blood gushed out like the faucet was not turned off.
Everyone saw it, but no one came to help her, even if it was a piece of toilet paper. They just watched her silently cover her wound with her hands, and watched the blood seep from her fingers.
Then the teacher came. But only asked them to apologize to each other. As for her injury, no one cares at all.
She touched her lips, "Fortunately, I hid well. I didn't let my grandma get too close today, otherwise I'll cause a lot of trouble if she find out."
By the way, she wanna know what's going on at the hospital. Is her brother okay?Will he be cold?
Every time she accompany her brother to the hospital to see a doctor, the air conditioner inside is so big.
Or will he be afraid of injections and drips?When she was hospitalized for the first time, her parents were afraid that she would cry when she got an injection, so they kept comforting her. She was also a little nervous at first, but when she saw the needle inserted, not only did she not feel pain, also felt very funny.
"It's just numb and itchy. Sometimes when I wake up from sleep, my hands will be like this."
But her brother cried when he had the injection, so loud and so loud. Yu Ruoling suddenly realized that the fact she was less afraid of pain did not mean that others were the same.
She began to worry about her younger brother. Whenever she went to the hospital with him, she would ask, "Will bro have an injection this time?"And made everyone so confused.
"Hello?Yes, I'm grandma, what's the matter?Didn't you call once in the afternoon?I've been chanting and begging Bud…what…?…You must be kidding…."
It's over..., everything is over, the Yu family is destined to be a loser in this regard....
The home phone handset in Yu Hong Axiu's hand seemed to be hanging from a large rock, and it smashed heavily on the low bookcase.
"How could this be..., my grandson, that…is my only grandson…"
Yu Ruoling didn't know what despair was, but felt like a cold wind was blowing through her heart. She turned to look at her tearful grandma, and waiting for the answer that shattered her hopes for the future.
The exhausted elder turned her head.
"Your brother has become an immortal beside the Bodhisattva."
"...Well, I guessed it just after listening the call."

Sure enough, just like going to school. Looking forward to it and was disappointed at last. Very disappointed and disappointed....
Her younger brother stayed with her through the hard times for the past three years, and there was no one to support her for the rest of the day.
She wanted to study hard so that her younger brother would not be bullied in the future, but now...what kind of sister is she.... She didn't even see the last side of her brother.... Not even a chance to say "I love you” or “goodbye".
It's not fair..., it's not fair at all!
"I'm going to the toilet."She hid in the toilet on the second floor while her grandmother was still going out to take out the garbage.
And collapsed greatly.
"It's not fair!It's super unfair!It's not fair!I want him back..."Accidentally choked on ventilation, Yu Ruoling suddenly realized that she was "at home".
'Too loudly', she sniffed hard and thought.
"It will not be a long time that granma took out the trash, so don't do this for too long. ...I should wash my face...."
She got up from the toilet, holding a towel in front of the sink in a daze, "It's so ugly.... Mom doesn't like it, and my brother has never seen me like this way. I can't cry anymore, if my brother flew back to see me, he would definitely be frightened by me."
Yu Ruoling wasn't halfway through her emotional circle. She resisted the pain that was about to burst from her chest, and washing her face with cold water, walking downstairs as if nothing had happened.
*
Her nephew is gone..., her brother's wife is still crying in the stairwell, and her brother is washing his face in the toilet to calm down.
And here she is, watching her dear nephew in the morgue. Her nephew is so good, he doesn't cry or make trouble, and his pure and fair face is even more beautiful than an angel.
Pulling off the white cloth, Yu Xiaoyu hummed "Little Star". She used to play this children's song to RuoHao. As long as he heard this song, RuoHao would fall asleep relaxed.
Now it should be the last time...sing to him.
"Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are.... Up above the world so high. Like a diamond in the sky. "
Yu Xiaoyu's voice trembled, she touched Yu Ruohao's little face lightly, and continued to sing.
"Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are.... RuoHao, go to the Bodhisattva's side to be a boy, and then we will come back to accompany you in the future, okay?Don't be afraid. Auntie is here with you."
Packs of empty paper bags, piles of paper, the flag of missing, reminiscing, parting and believing to meet again.
Yu Xiaoyu looked at her watch and secretly figured out what time she should stay. The gentle stroking on her hands never stopped, as if the little man was just asleep, and when he woke up, he would sweetly call out "Auntie...”.
The etiquette team outside the mortuary and the nurses in charge have long embraced.
Ji Xiaoru, the nurse who helped Yu Ruohao to check and record every day, burst into tears. Several colleagues gathered around her to comfort her frequently.
"I'm never married.... But he is just like my child, I really want to cure him...."
"We tried our best!It's okay, you know about that. It's okay."
"Let's hand it over to our company next. Do the family members plan to hold the funeral at home?Or should it be handed over to the hospital directly?"
"We don't know. We'll have to wait for the aunt to come out and ask."
Some deceased children will not be taken home for funerals, but will ask the hospital to help them when they pass away.
The etiquette company will also assist family members throughout the process.
There are pros and cons, the only regret is probably that the child can't go home at the last time.
Everyone's eyes looked at the door of the mortuary invariably, and there was an inexplicable sense of desolation that the world is impermanent and life is like a dream.
In fact, as a doctor, there are too many experiences in the cycle of life and death. It can't be said to be paralyzed, nor is it trained to be emotionless, but to learn to hide and suppress.
A professional doctor will not casually reveal other emotions in front of family members and patients. All they do is report illnesses, give advices and medical prescriptions, and speak honestly.
It's hard, but they have to.
On the side of the white cloth, a pair of capable and shrewd hands were holding a booklet. Light pink flying butterflies set off the two lines of neat, fresh and beautiful handwriting.
Yu Xiaoyu raised a free and easy smile, reading the recited poem.
"You spend whole your life for my short time...."
"I spend my whole life thinking of you in light...."
"And be my nephew the next time."
