Chapter 148: The Only Driftwood

Maybe it's because of the drinking, it's a little stuffy for no reason. originally thought that Song Yu was already asleep, but as soon as her hand touched her, she suddenly opened her eyes.

Tang Xu was bent over, and the two were originally very close to each other. Then she suddenly opened her eyes, and suddenly she became ambiguous.

Song Yu's eyes were misty, and he couldn't tell if he was awake or not. Tang Xu didn't withdraw his hand at this moment, nor did he not accept it, the eyes of the two froze at each other for a few seconds, he took the lead in looking away and said, "Wake up." ”

His voice was low, and he was about to straighten up after speaking, but before he could straighten up, Song Yu reached out and hugged his neck. She was fragile at the moment, her hand around his neck tight, as if she were grasping the only driftwood in the water.

Tang Xu's body stiffened, allowing her to hug him. After a while, he reached out in silence and gently patted her thin back. Song Yu's tears fell so hard that he burst into silent tears almost instantly.

Tang Xu didn't say anything to comfort her, but just patted her gently as if coaxing a child. The orange light stretched the figures of the two men long.

I don't know who started first, Song Yu had an unprecedented enthusiasm, from the living room to the bedroom to the bathroom, until he finally fell asleep.

When Song woke up the next day, it was already past eleven o'clock, and there were bruises on his body. She didn't dare to look at it, as if she was trying to hide something, she grabbed her clothes and put them on haphazardly.

I thought that Tang Xu had already gone to work at this time, but he didn't. He was sitting on the couch when she went out, hugging his laptop and quickly replying to emails.

Auntie came, and the smell of food was already coming from the kitchen.

Song Yu's stomach had been corroded by alcohol during this time, and he had no appetite. I didn't go to see what my aunt had cooked, but I just went to pour a glass of water and went out of the kitchen.

As soon as she arrived at a glass of water outside, her aunt came out with a bowl of soup and said with a smile, "Mrs. drink some of this, it nourishes her stomach." ”

Without thinking about it, he knew that it was Tang Xu's order, Song Yu put down the cup, said thank you, and took the bowl into his hand.

Auntie's meal was ready, and Song Yu was slowly drinking the soup, and at this time, she had already put all the dishes on the table.

Song Yu's stomach was uncomfortable, and his head hurt a little. I went to find the medicine and took it, and then sat down at the table.

She has been suffering from insomnia since Yu Manzhu passed away, probably because she was too tired last night, although she was still bruised under her eyes, her spirit was much better than usual.

Tang Xu had already sat down at the dining table when she was taking the medicine, and when he saw her sit down, he pushed the rice bowl in front of him.

Although last night's incident was drunk, the intermittent memory is still there. Song Yu was a little restrained when facing him, but he was like a person who had nothing to do.

Song Yu said thank you after taking the bowl, Tang Xu glanced at her without speaking, and began to eat.

After eating, he put down his chopsticks, and just as he was about to say something, Song Yu opened his mouth and said, "I won't go to your company, I will go back to work in the company tomorrow." ”

She knew why Tang Xu didn't let her go to work in the club, for fear that she would drink heavily.

After a slight pause, she continued, "I'll try not to drink anymore." ”

She was already addicted to drinking, and it was not easy to quit all at once. She didn't dare to boast that she didn't drink it.

Her tone was serious.

She always had something to do, and only when she had something to do could she distract herself. I think about drinking all the time. It is not a way to quit drinking by relying on people to keep an eye on it, it can only rely on her self-consciousness.

She seemed to be calm now, not perfunctory. Tang Xu didn't dampen her enthusiasm, nodded and said yes.

He was still not very relieved, paused slightly, and then said: "I am relatively idle during this time, and I will wait for me to go to work and get off work in the future." If I have something to do, I'll let Xiao Yun pick you up. ”

Song Yu didn't know what he was worried about, but he was giving in now. She didn't refuse, she was silent for a moment and said yes, and then said thank you.

Tang continued to be noncommittal.

As if he had suddenly come to life, Song Yu began to commute to work seriously. I also controlled my alcohol addiction and began to live a serious life.

It's like going back to the old days, cooking and cleaning after work. At work, I sit intently, which really distracts a lot of attention.

It's just that Tang Xu should have said hello, she didn't do anything practical, she was all following the chores. But she also does chores very seriously.

After losing her parents in a short period of time, especially in the last time, the relationship between her and Yu Manzhu is still stiff. Peng Xi was worried about her, but he could only take care of her carefully, and did not dare to touch her bloody wounds.

The relationship between the two was cautious, and Song Yu was silent most of the time. The relationship between the two is much more boring than before.

The process of quitting alcohol was painful, and Song Yu tried his best to restrain himself. I control the amount of alcohol I drink every day and slowly reduce it. She is quite persevering, and at other times, she refrains herself from touching it.

She suddenly restrained herself like this, Tang Xu was not at ease, but was more worried than when she was drinking. I don't know what she's going to do, and I'm afraid she'll do something stupid.

He paid attention to her, but he didn't show it. She brought up Song Tinglai on the weekend and asked her if she would go over to see him.

She hadn't seen Song Ting for a long time.

Her parents are gone, and the only one who has anything to do with her in this world is Song Ting.

Tang Xu mentioned Song Ting, but he didn't really ask her to see him. It's just to remind her that there is still Song Ting who needs her to take care of.

Song Yu heard him mention that Song Ting didn't speak for a long time, and only after a long time did he say in a low voice: "I want to rest well, so I won't go." ”

As for where Song Ting is now, and who will take care of the two of them, there is no mention.

Although she had arranged Song Ting, she was clear about Tang Xu's methods. If he wants to find out, he can't find it.

Tang Xu nodded and did not continue on this topic.

Song Yu didn't sit long, and quickly returned to the room. Slid down the wall and sat on the ground, closed his eyes and leaned against the wall, thinking of Yu Manzhu again.

Thinking of Song Tinglai, she was full of guilt for Yu Manzhu. Such guilt made her subconsciously escape. I didn't even want to hear Song Ting's name.

She sat in the room, in a daze. The whole person was like a puppet, and he didn't move for a long time. It wasn't until she heard footsteps approaching that she got up casually, closed her eyes and lay down on the bed.

Tang Xu seemed to know that she was not asleep, and after pushing the door open, he said, "Get up and change your clothes, you have to go out." ”

Song Yu didn't want to go out, but in the end he still opened his eyes and asked slowly, "Where are you going?"

Tang Xu raised his wrist to look at the time and said, "Go to the old mansion." Big brother and sister-in-law, they are all gone. ”

Yes, she hadn't been to the Tang family's old mansion for a long time. She couldn't even remember the last time it was.

She can push it off when she goes to other places, but she can't push it off when she goes to the Tang family's old house. didn't speak, and got up after Tang Xu closed the door, and then found clothes to change into.

Her face was not good, she was terribly pale. Because of insomnia, she was also much haggard, and there were large bruises under her eyes.

It was obviously not possible to go to the Tang family's old house in this state, so she found clothes to change into, and then put on light makeup in front of the mirror, and then went out.

Because the old lady was there, Tang Xu did not go over empty-handed. Instead, I went to the city center first and bought the old lady her favorite snacks. Throw it directly to Song Yu and let her give it to the old lady.

Song Yu really didn't have the energy to think about these things, so he didn't refuse, and took it in silence.

When the two arrived at the Tang family's old house, Tang Yao and Wen Yi had already arrived, and they did not see Tang Chengen's family. I probably haven't been here yet.

Tang Xu has always regarded Tang Chengen as air, and he didn't even ask. After stopping the car, he saw Tang Yao watering flowers in the yard, so he went over to say hello.

Song Yu also followed and called out to the eldest brother.

Tang Yao smiled slightly, and said gently: "It's windy outside, let's go in." Your sister-in-law is making almond cheese for your grandmother in the kitchen, and she has always liked it, so you can try it too. ”

He was like an elder. Song Yu squeezed out a smile and said yes, and walked into the house.

In the past, Tang Xu and Tang Yao would talk alone for a long time, but this time they didn't. As soon as Song Yu arrived at the door, Tang Xu followed. She was a little puzzled, and glanced sideways at him.

Tang Xu was naturally aware of her doubts, but he didn't say anything. When he entered the living room, he raised his chin and said, "Grandma should rest in the room, I'll just go and see." You go to your sister-in-law. ”

Song Yu and Wen Yi were together, he was quite relieved. I'm not worried about Wen Yi talking nonsense like Xue Zhaoying.

Song Yu didn't insist, said yes, and went to the kitchen.

Wen Yi was busy now, and when he saw Song Yu in the past, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Come here." ”

She was present at Yu Manzhu's funeral, and knowing Song Yu's grief, she was reluctant to mention it again. At this point, he acted as if nothing had happened, and behaved as usual.

Song Yu also showed a smile on his face, nodded, and called his sister-in-law before saying, "What can I help with?"

She wasn't used to standing.

Wen Yi was not polite to her and arranged for her to clean the dishes. She came early and baked cookies and peach crisps, and it was all right now. All that's left is to clean up the kitchen.

Song Yu was used to doing these things, so she took her apron and tied it and began to do things.

She washes things, and Wen Yi guards the oven. When the dim sum was baked, he took it out, and then sent it to Tang's mother and the old lady respectively.

Before Song Yu's kitchen was completely cleaned, Xue Zhaoying's family came over. The voice of a child could be heard in the living room.

Now that I've heard it, it's obviously unreasonable not to say hello. Song Yu went out to say hello. Then go back to the kitchen and start cleaning up.

Xue Zhaoying and Tang Chengen took the child to greet the old lady Tang's mother, and Song Yu's kitchen was cleaned up before Xue Zhaoying walked in. Seeing Song Yu, he smiled and said, "Brother and sister have worked hard, both children like the cookies baked by my sister-in-law, I'll come over and get some." ”

She was not polite at all, and said that she was quick to get the cookies. And took two servings of almond cheese.

Song Yu had no topic with her at all, and he didn't have any extra energy to perfunctory her, he just squeezed out a smile and smiled.

I thought that Xue Zhaoying was going to leave after taking something, but she didn't. After taking the things, she stood still, looked at Song Yu with a concerned face, and said, "Brother and sister, your face is not very good, is it insomnia?"

She actually cared about her, it was like the sun was coming out in the west.

Song Yu smiled reluctantly, shook his head and said, "No, it may be that I slept a little late last night." ”

She denied it if she didn't want to.

But Xue Zhaoying sighed as if she hadn't heard it, and said, "You must be sad when your aunt passes away, but no matter how sad you are, you have to take care of your body." ”

Hearing her mention Yu Manzhu, Song Yu's body stiffened.

Xue Zhaoying continued: "Don't blame yourself, although we are children, how can we know if the old man is sick? Auntie is really, obviously you are the only daughter, and she won't ......tell you when she is sick."

Although she was comforting Song Yu on the surface, every word poked into her heart. Song Yu's face was terribly pale, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.

Before Xue Zhaoying's words were finished, Wen Yi walked in from outside. She heard her words, her face changed slightly, and before she could finish speaking, she interrupted her and said, "The child is looking for you." ”

Her tone was bland, detached and cold.

Although she sprinkled salt on the bloody wounds, Xue Zhaoying didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her at all. His face did not change for a moment, and he did not continue his words, and said with a smile: "Thank you, sister-in-law, you are busy, I will take care of the children first." ”

As she spoke, she hummed a song and walked outside.

Wen Yi's brows furrowed and he looked at Song Yu.

Song Yu squeezed out a smile, although he tried his best to pretend to be casual, but his pale face couldn't hide it.

Wen Yi wanted to say something, but he still didn't say it. After being silent for a while, he said: "You know what kind of person she is, don't take her words to heart." ”

Song Yu smiled reluctantly and nodded.

Wen Yi asked her not to take it to heart, how could she not take it to heart. didn't go to see Yu Manzhu often, and found out her illness in advance, she had blamed herself in her heart and regretted it thousands of times.

As a daughter, whether it is Song Zhiyuan or Yu Manzhu, she has not fulfilled her responsibilities as a daughter. Didn't do anything for them.

Every time she dreams back in the middle of the night, she blames herself. Blame yourself for your incompetence, blame yourself for being ignorant. If she could have been a little better, maybe everything would have been different.

In the following time, Song Yu was absent-minded. Perhaps because of the pain, she was addicted to alcohol again, and she just wanted to find a place where no one was to get drunk. Only when you are drunk can the pain be relieved.

She desperately wanted to escape from a place that seemed like a cage to her.

She saw the pain in her eyes, and after cleaning up the kitchen, she said, "Tired, right? ”

Song Yu desperately wanted to escape, but couldn't find an excuse to escape. Leaving right away is just a thought. She didn't refuse, and squeezed out a smile in response.

She didn't want to go back to Tang Xu's room, so she went to the study.

Wen Yi was considerate, and not long after she entered the study, she brought a snack and a cup of coffee into the study. Afraid that Song Yu would be uncomfortable, he smiled and said, "How about trying." ”

Song was grateful and whispered thank you.

I thought she was going to leave when she put down her things, but she didn't. She sat down on a wicker chair beside her. Neither of them could find a topic to talk about for a while, so they were silent. It was very quiet in the study. After a long while, Wen Yi spoke: "Ah Yu, Auntie has left." I know you're sad and painful. But I don't think she would want to see you like that if she knew. She must just want to see you live happily. ”

She lost her mind for a moment, paused slightly, and wanted to say something, but she still didn't say anything. After staying for a while, he took out a business card and handed it to Song Yu, saying, "Sometimes I feel that the sky is about to fall, but as long as I walk over, everything will pass." If it's painful...... Just see a psychiatrist. ”

Her tone was serious, but with a bit of emptiness. She didn't know about Song Yu's alcoholism, so she specially found her a psychiatrist's business card, obviously afraid of doing something stupid alone.

Song Yu didn't think he needed to see a psychiatrist, and he didn't want to. But he didn't want to live up to Wen Yi's kindness, so he took the business card and thanked Wen Yi.

Wen Yi was a little in a trance, and after saying a word of politeness, he didn't speak again.

Song Yu received a call from Zhang's mother in the afternoon, and she hadn't called Zhang's mother for a long time. Most of the time, it was Zhang's mother who called her.

Her eyes were sour, and she looked at the number for a moment before picking up the phone. She thought it was Zhang's mother on the other end of the phone, so she called first after answering it.

It's just that the other end of the phone is not Zhang's mother, but Song Ting. He said in a childish voice: "Sister, it's not Grandma Zhang, it's me." I missed you, so I borrowed Grandma Zhang's mobile phone and called you. ”

He didn't know about Yu Manzhu's death, neither Zhang's mother nor Song Yu told him.

Song Yu didn't expect that it would be him on the other end of the phone, and subconsciously hung up the phone. But she still held back, and asked bluntly after a while, "What's the matter?"

Her tone was completely different from usual, Song Ting was a little stunned by her alienation, and said timidly: "I miss you, can you come and see me?"

There was some caution in his tone.

Song Yu was so sad all of a sudden that all kinds of tastes came up in an instant, and he couldn't even speak for a while.
