Chapter 156: Chapter 156 Living Dead_1
Meng Yunhan was profoundly grateful to this big brother, “Certainly, certainly, you should get back to work quickly. We can’t let this interfere with your job.”
“Thank you, young man.”
Just as the bus drove off, Meng Yunhan’s heart sank. Reaching the town would make things easier. She planned to find Old Man Zhao there. If there was no cow cart, she would look for a pushcart to bring Yun Hao home.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
They were nearing home.
After an unsteady journey, they finally arrived at Qingzhao Village, the two of them assisting Yun Hao off the bus.
“Mom, just hold onto him— I’ll go find Old Man Zhao.”
Who is this Old Man Zhao?
Yun’s mother wanted to ask but considering her son leaning on her, she dismissed the idea.
She still didn’t know that Old Man Zhao and the older gentleman at the waste collection station were the same person.
Only the titles were different.
“Uncle, Uncle….” Meng Yunhan was heading to the waste collection station to look for Old Man Zhao.
Old Man Zhao, who was fanning himself with a straw fan, heard Meng Yunhan’s urgent voice.
“Han Han, what’s wrong?” Old Man Zhao quickly emerged from his small house.
Meng Yunhan panted, “Uncle, are there any cow carts around here? If not, a pushcart will do.”
“What’s up?”
“Uncle, do you have a pushcart?”
“Yes, though it’s a bit worn out. If something has happened, do tell me about it. Maybe I can help.”
Meng Yunhan knew that Yun Hao and Old Man Zhao had a close relationship.
“Yun Hao is in trouble.”
Old Man Zhao staggered, nearly falling over, but eventually steadied himself and asked anxiously, “What happened? Can you tell me about it in detail?”
“He’s still alive.”
Old Man Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, being alive was good enough, just being alive was fine.
“I’ve tinkered with the pushcart a bit these past few days, let’s go.” Old Man Zhao pushed out the pushcart, intending to go with Meng Yunhan to see Yun Hao.
During their journey, Meng Yunhan began to share soberly, “Uncle, Ahao is still alive, but he’s become a vegetable?”
Old Man Zhao was stunned by this term he had never heard before, “What do you mean vegetable?”
“Living dead.” These three simple words immediately made Old Man Zhao grasp the situation.
He had no idea how to comfort Meng Yunhan.
Because he had experienced the pain of losing loved ones.
Even though Ahao was still alive, he was no different from a corpse. How could a widow and an orphan survive like this?
Just during New Year’s, they were discussing this matter. Why didn’t Ahao mention at that time that he was heading for the battlefield?
How long has it been since the child’s full moon ceremony, and this disaster has occurred?
During New Year’s, they looked at the couple and saw how well their relationship was doing, but now this has happened.
“Mom, this is Uncle.”
When Yun’s mother saw Old Man Zhao, she immediately remembered that when her grandson had his full moon ceremony, he had also come over for the Full Moon Wine celebration.
But, that might have been because everyone in the village knew each other, so when a stranger appeared, memory took note.
“Ahao, Ahao…” Old Man Zhao looked at Yun Hao being held up, his eyes closed, and he cautiously called out twice, but Yun Hao didn’t respond.
“Uncle, it’s getting late. We need to take Yun Hao home.” Meng Yunhan prepared to gingerly put Yun Hao onto the pushcart. Though this was undignified for him, it was necessary. She could have carried him home, but her mother-in-law had to carry Little Huzi and the suitcases, which would be challenging.
“I’ll push with you. This road isn’t smooth, having one more person will make it faster.” Old Man Zhao observed the helplessness of the old and young, he resolved to help them bring Yun Hao home.
