His eyes were cloudy, and because most of his teeth had fallen out, his mouth was depressed and his words were not clear enough: "Girl, your grandma doesn't live here. You came too late. If you want to find her, you have to go to that building." .”
Su Qingyu asked politely: "Which building is it?"
"That's right there, you can get there through the small garden." The white-bearded old man raised his hand and pointed to the dilapidated small building that the nurse had introduced. "If the elderly family members cannot prepay the second year's fees, the nursing home will Arrange those old people into that building.
Your grandma, hehe, I remember being placed in room 404. On the fourth floor, we clearly know that we old people are taboo about these things, but we arranged them on the fourth floor. "
Su Qingyu looked in the direction of her finger.
The building was gray, the walls were mottled, like rotten skin, and the water pipes were exposed, like crisscrossing meridians.
Most of the glass on the windows is broken, and some are blocked with old newspapers.
Even without walking into that building, you can imagine the harsh living environment in that building.
The old man laughed dryly, then leaned over and said quietly: "We old people are different from the children in the kindergarten. When we get old, we become a burden to the family. We put them in a nursing home and spend money to buy them some peace and quiet." .
I envy the children in the kindergarten. They are also waiting to leave. Whenever dusk comes, they will be picked up. But if we want to leave here, the only choice is death... If we live in that building, we will be away from death. Not far away. "
His resentment is deep.
Su Qingyu asked: "How much does a nursing home here cost per year?"
"We have 10,000 yuan a month here, and we need to estimate the expenses for the second year every year. But that building only costs 1,000 yuan a month. If an elderly person moves in, the one-year cost will be enough to live there for ten years."
"Thank you!" Su Qingyu was about to leave.
The old man with the white beard suddenly stopped her: "Wait a minute."
"Huh?" Su Qingyu stopped.
The old man's eyes fell on the chessboard, and he stroked the "chess" chess piece with his withered fingers.
He asked: "What did my granddaughter say to you?"
The surrounding temperature dropped suddenly.
Su Qingyu saw that the old grandfather had become more like skin and bones. When the meat on the fingers became less and less, the nails became more and more protruding and sharp. She took a step back slightly, and then thought of a foolproof answer in her heart.
"My grandpa, why do you need someone else to talk to you? You'd better wait for her to come and talk to you in person." Su Qingyu spent a lot of money and successfully kicked out the conversation.
"It's waiting again." The old man with the white beard did not make any special reaction.
The old man who smoked cigarettes put out his cigarette on the stone table: "It will be fine once it becomes a habit. Come on, let's play chess."
The two old grandfathers began to play chess.
They were engrossed in the game, and seemed to have entered a state of selflessness, completely forgetting that Su Qingyu was still present. No matter what Su Qingyu said next, the two grandfathers seemed to have not heard it.
Whenever a chess piece captures another chess piece, the black energy on the body of the captured chess piece will increase.
It wasn't until one of them won that the icy cold temperature eased a little.
Su Qingyu stopped saying hello and left quickly.
When she walked farther away, she found that the two old grandfathers had disappeared, and the brand-new chessboard on the stone table had turned into a dilapidated appearance. Everything that had just appeared was like a mirage.
The nurse pushed a group of old people out to bask in the sun.
They placed the old man in a circle under the sun.
Volunteers then perform magic tricks in the middle.
There was no smile on the old man's face.
They didn't speak, just watched the performance quietly.
Su Qingyu found a nurse and asked about the two old men playing chess just now.
The nurse in white told Su Qingyu that in the early years, when this nursing home was first established, the benefits were good. There are many elderly people who take a fancy to the environment here and take the initiative to come here to take care of themselves.
There will also be chess games held at that time.
If you win, the fees for the second year will be waived.
So the old people in the hospital all like to play chess.
Later, the news revealed that the site where the nursing home was located was originally a corpse pit. Many people died due to an epidemic a hundred years ago. In order to prevent the spread of the disease, the dead were thrown into the pit.
The family members of some elderly people felt that this place was unlucky, so they took the able-bodied elderly people away.
There are still some elderly people who want to leave, but due to health reasons, their families cannot take care of them full time, so they can only continue to live here.
And the activity of playing chess was completely abandoned.
Su Qingyu was able to see the scene of the two old men playing chess because he got the strange prop "Shang" chess.
[Black Lake Nursing Home] Family Rules Article 3.
[Our hospital respects the strong family relationship between family members and the elderly, but please note that since the elderly are blind, deaf, and unconscious, they may talk nonsense. Please do not take the elderly's words seriously to avoid misunderstandings and influence on our hospital. Friendly and cooperative relations between the two parties. 】
This one is contaminated.
What the old man said just now should be mixed between truth and falsehood.
The suspicious thing is that the old man with a white beard said that his granddaughter has not been here for ten years.
However, Su Qingyu checked the historical data of this nursing home on the small program developed by the red organization. The data showed that basically, the elderly people who lived there would die within half a year.
Because of loneliness, old people always feel that one day is as long as ten.
His granddaughter will most likely die in this copy.
Otherwise, the person who delivered the chess pieces to Su Qingyu last night should be a living person.
As for the nursing home payment part, after Zhu Yu shared the nursing home charging guide in the group, we can know that what he said is true.
Su Qingyu went to the dilapidated small building.
As soon as you enter, you can smell the pungent smell of excrement. The ground is full of stains. There are many old people sitting in the corridor. Most of them are paralyzed and sitting in wheelchairs, blocking the way back and forth.
The caregivers are severely short-handed. When they find an elderly person's wheelchair blocking the road, they will kick the wheelchair out of the way angrily. When they see an elderly person falling on the ground, they will not reach out to help him.
On the first floor alone, as far as the eye can see, there are sixty or seventy elderly people in need of care.
There are only two caregivers and only one nurse.
As for the volunteers... Su Qingyu didn't see them.
Su Qingyu found the video sent by her grandma.
From the angle the video was shot from, Su Qingyu felt that it was not the fourth floor at all.
The old man with a white beard told Su Qingyu clearly that her grandmother lived in room 404, but Su Qingyu couldn't believe it.
There is no receptionist in this building.
Su Qingyu first avoided the old people on the ground and walked to the elevator.
On the way, she would meet some old people grabbing her clothes.
——"Are you my granddaughter?"
——"Are you my granddaughter?"
--"Do I know you?"
——"Are you here to pick me up?"
They raised their heads, trying to see Su Qingyu clearly with their highly presbyopic eyes, and then muttered similar words.
It seems that he is looking forward to his family taking him away.
