A Beautiful Educated Youth in the Seventies

- This novel is complete.

- New-era novel: A Beautiful Bloom in the 1980s

A young, beautiful educated youth girl x a mature, steady farmer uncle

During the time Su Jieya lay in the hospital waiting to die,

the only person who stayed by her side to care for her was an old, white-haired man who had no legal relationship to her whatsoever.

The old man fed her and bathed her, always gentle and careful.

The only thing that wasn't gentle or tender was the way he spoke to her.

His voice was gruff, nothing like the way one should speak to someone gravely ill.

Caring for someone took a lot of energy, and the old man's own health was poor.

His son came to the hospital almost every day to urge his elderly father to go home and rest.

The old man refused, time and again, leaving his son at a loss.

All he could do was turn his deeply furrowed brows toward Su Jieya, who lay on the hospital bed, barely clinging to life.

But when he faced the doctor, the son, already in his forties, covered his head and crouched on the floor, sobbing:

"Doctor, please, I'm begging you, save her. If my mother gets better this time, maybe she'll never leave us again."

Su Jieya lay in the old man's arms at the very end.

At last, his voice was tender as he spoke to her, almost breaking into tears:

"Xiaoya, if only you hadn't left back then, I could have taken care of you..."

His son clutched her hand tightly, choking out, "Mom, Mom..."

Su Jieya had something to say to the father and son, but she couldn't utter a word, no matter how hard she tried.

At last, with all her strength, Su Jieya squeezed her son's hand once.

Then she fell silent.
