Chapter 164: I Didn't Smoke Before
On a winter afternoon, the sun had already left, and it took two consecutive days of sunshine to melt the thick snow on the mountain, and the air was still mixed with cold.
Standing in front of the window, the oncoming wind blew her long hair up and down, and the ups and downs of her hair flowed, as if she was in a hurry for life.
Jiang Hao's hands were clasped around his waist, his back was against the old wall, in this corridor, the smell of disinfectant water was everywhere, it was so pungent, he was not used to it, he seemed to have gotten used to it, from the beginning of the constant sneezing to the current non-sneezing.
Just like each of us, when a person leaves, from not getting used to being alone at the beginning, to getting used to being a person later, it may just be a process.
Han Chen took a pack of cigarettes, walked up to him, handed him a cigarette and said, "Do you smoke?"
Jiang Hao shook his head, waved a hand at him and said, "I'm sorry, I don't smoke." ”
Han Chen took back the cigarette in his hand, took out the lighter, lit it for himself, inhaled it gently, and then spit out layers of smoke floating in the sky.
"I didn't smoke before, but then I was alone in the United States, and I learned to smoke because I missed someone, and I wanted my smoke in the United States to transmit my thoughts through the sky, because after all, we still live under the same sky. Han Chen said to himself alone.
Tranquility glanced back at him who was smoking, and his disdainful eyes could make him scarry.
She didn't speak, turned away from the window, and said as she went, "I'm going to lunch, you can't go here!"
Jiang Hao watched her back gradually disappearing into the corridor, he didn't follow the past, just happened to talk to this person named Han Chen.
Han Chen walked to the window, stood there and began to smoke, without speaking, the smoke drifted into the distance with the oncoming wind.
"Let's get to know each other, I'm Han Chen!" he said as he stretched out his hand to introduce himself to Jiang Hao.
"I don't see him, I've already heard his name, my name is Jiang Hao. He looked at him and said slowly.
"I've heard of you too, I heard Han Bin praise you as early as when I was in the United States! When I saw you today, it was really the same as what he said!" Han Chen looked at him and replied.
In fact, Jiang Hao was still wondering what he said was the same as what Han Bin said, was it good for Ningning, or was Han Bin really praising him for being good.
After a few tentative attempts to say something, he swallowed back and did not speak.
"Do you know what she likes to eat, what she likes to drink, what her favorite color is, and what she hates the most?" Han Chen's tone seemed to have a hint of hostility in his tone, and the smart Jiang Hao already felt it as soon as he heard it, he was jealous.
He smiled, took back the hands held around his waist, inserted them in his pants bag, and said leisurely: "Although I don't know everything, but I will know it slowly, after all, you have known him for more than ten years, and I have only known her for a few months, from an economic point of view, I still have a certain gap." ”
Han Chen threw away the cigarette he had already smoked in his hand, he looked at Jiang Hao and said, "Then you are ready, I will not give up on her, how can we compete fairly in the future." ”
Jiang Hao took out his pants bag with both hands, gestured his hands a few times, and said slowly: "No problem, I won't give up unless she has already chosen you." ”
Before the parties had expressed any attitude, they had already begun to call for war.
-- Dividing line --
In the ward, Mr. Han shed tears as he spoke, like a person, who has gone through youth, stepped into middle age, and then turned into the era of old age, only to find that the journey of life cannot be described lightly.
He kept holding Tranquility's father's hand and said: "When we graduated from high school, we began to teach and educate people, you were a very good person in the class at that time, and you took us to do such glorious things and won so many honors, now you see that the children have grown up, you don't want to leave the children and leave, get better quickly." ”
The more he talked, the more he remembered the evocative and nostalgic past, looking at the quiet stubbornness now, like his father when he was young, the arrogance in his bones, exuding his whole body, making people afraid to approach.
He still remembers the basketball game in high school, the whole Zunyi area participated in the game, and not many people in the rural family knew this basketball at that time, so he was strongly opposed by Grandpa Ning and did not let her father participate.
As the best person in the class basketball, he has never wanted to give up, but he did not get the permission of his family to go to Zunyi to participate in the game, and the family did not give money and there was no living expenses, so the two of them used one person's life to support the lives of two people.
A small portion of rice and two pairs of chopsticks, he and Teacher Han sat together and ate one share, and they ate it with great relish.
Tranquility walked up slowly with a dumpling, and when she walked to the door of the ward, and was about to say something, she took the steps out again, and silently took it back.
Looking at Teacher Han who lowered her head and silently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, she suddenly couldn't bear to look directly and didn't dare to look up to face it, in Teacher Han's lonely back, she seemed to see her father's shadow.
Teacher Han wiped away his tears and continued: "You have to wake up quickly, otherwise these two children who are distressed will have to suffer, I am a lonely old man now, and when you are better, someone will have a drink with me!"
"Did you ring the bell just now in bed six?" the nurse came over and asked, surprised by the tranquility who was standing there in a daze, and also noisy to Teacher Han in the ward.
"I pressed it, and the liquid is gone. Teacher Han inside said loudly.
The nurse turned around and walked to the nurse's table again, and walked over with a small plate, which contained all kinds of disinfectant water, iodine and other things.
Tranquility walked in with the dumplings, slowly opened the lid of the disposable box, sorted out the chopsticks and handed them to Mr. Han.
She whispered, "Hurry up and eat while it's still hot." ”
As she spoke, she opened the lid of the chili sauce, put the chili sauce in front of him, and said slowly: "I heard my father say before, you like to eat dumplings, and I also added vinegar to this chili sauce, I don't know if it's the flavor you want to eat."
Seeing the dumplings brought by Tranquility, even if he was not hungry, he held chopsticks and ate happily, as if it was the most delicious dish he had eaten in the past few days.
"There are no fluids today, so it's okay to take care of the patient at night. "Before leaving, the nurses like to give a few careful instructions, which seems to have become an indispensable part of their work.
