Chapter 184: Si Sheng, don't be trapped by one thing
At dawn, at a certain moment, Xiao Yi suddenly woke up and had no sleepiness.
Rubbing his hair, he turned over and sat up, vaguely, through the unclosed window, he saw a bright light shining from the courtyard, he was stunned, got up, and came to the window with his slippers.
Looking through the glass window, I looked beyond the courtyard and saw the living room with the lights on.
At the window of the living room, the window was bright and clean, Xiao Wei peeked into the corner of the living room, and happened to see Si Sheng sitting on the sofa, with quiet frost eyebrows lying in his arms, quiet and indifferent, I don't know how long he sat there.
He suddenly remembered the advice the nurse had given him last night—
"It may be a bit troublesome, you should stay at home these days. ”
To put it mildly, if it weren't for the identity of the nurse, I wouldn't even know what he was talking about.
It is precisely because he is a nurse that the meaning is very clear: it is best to go home more often to accompany the elderly, Yi Zhongzheng's condition has taken a sharp turn for the worse.
Xiao Wei leaned sideways against the wall, his head tilted slightly, and his gaze fell to the courtyard.
He didn't get along with Yi Zhongzheng for a long time, and he also said hello at home, and occasionally accompanied Yi Zhongzheng to talk under Si Sheng's instructions, and he couldn't squeeze out a topic for half a day.
But he could see that it was a very unusual old man.
Calm, wise, perceptive.
Dragging the body tormented by illness, in fact, everything is clear to me.
What's more, a proud person like Si Sheng, who is one of the few in terms of mechanical attainments, sincerely evaluates him - a master of mechanical arts. She has traveled thousands of miles, met thousands of people, and never seen a single person surpass him.
It's getting dark.
It wasn't until the light in the living room went out that Xiao Cheng suddenly came back to his senses.
He heard the door open in the living room, turned slightly to the side, avoided the window, and hid behind the curtains.
Waiting for a moment, he leaned out a little and saw Si Sheng standing at the door, holding frost eyebrows in his arms, raising his eyes to look at the sky after the rain stopped.
His gaze paused, and fell to Frostbrow, who yawned with claws stretched out in her arms.
The picture is quiet and beautiful.
......
In the morning, seven o'clock.
Zhong Yu, who woke up on time, received a message from Xiao Rei.
[Xiao Wei]: Brother Zhong, can you let Shuangmei stay at my house for a few more days?
Zhong Yu was in a trance, and then remembered: Today is the day when he goes to get the frost eyebrows.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Wei received a reply.
[Zhong Yu]: Hmm.
*
Two days later, the weather cleared, and the early morning sun broke through the clouds and sprinkled down, a golden light, gentle and bright, with a long-lost warmth.
Si Sheng found the wheelchair that had been left in place for a long time, basked in the sun for two hours, and then used it to carry Yi Zhongzheng out.
"Do you want to go to the lock shop?"
Leaving the gate of the courtyard, Si Sheng pushed the wheelchair in the back.
The sun is just right, falling on the body, warm.
"Hmm. ”
"Is the lock store going to be sold?"
"Whatever you want. ”
After thinking for a moment, Si Sheng said slowly: "Don't sell it, I will be poor in the future, and I can still make a living by picking locks." ”
Yi Zhongzheng didn't bother to lift his eyelids, "When you learned to pick locks when you were a child, didn't you aspire to slip the door and pick the lock?"
"When I was a kid, I thought it was cool, but when I grew up, I found out that I broke the law. ”
Si Sheng's tone was quite helpless.
Yi Zhongzheng: "......" is speechless.
Since he was a child, Si Sheng's interests and hobbies are very likely to go to the road of breaking the law and committing crimes. When Si Sheng was out for a while, Yi Zhongzheng always felt that the next time he saw Si Sheng, he would definitely be in prison.
I haven't thought about it for so many years, I don't know if Si Sheng is lucky, or if he really didn't go crooked, anyway, he is quite familiar with the police, but he has never squatted once.
This is one of the few things that Yi Zhongzheng can find in Si Sheng.
"But this hand is quite useful outside. If you don't have this skill—"
Si Sheng was suddenly silent.
"How?"
Yi Zhongzheng spoke out in a gloomy voice.
"Just," he cleared his throat, and Si Sheng said solemnly, "It's a lot less fun." ”
Didn't hear the truth from her mouth, Yi Zhongzheng snorted lightly.
However, I didn't pursue it, and I didn't get angry.
I expected what would happen to Si Sheng when he was out wandering.
When Yi Zhongzheng chatted with Qin Rong and others, he always sighed, every time he saw Si Sheng come back with sound limbs, he felt that God was not kind to Si Sheng.
......
From home to the lock store, it is a little far, usually walking for half an hour, but now pushing Yi Zhongzheng to walk, chatting while walking, it took about an hour.
Along the way, it was basically Si Sheng who was talking, and Yi Zhongzheng occasionally said a few words.
Si Sheng usually doesn't talk much, she is a person who would rather do it than move her mouth, and she doesn't like to recall the past.
But this time, she became the chattering one, telling Yi Zhongzheng about her experience outside, interesting people, interesting things, Yi Zhongzheng listened to it without shock, and there was a "pediatric" flavor.
Knowing that Yi Zhongzheng had a lot of adventures before starting a family, in that era, remote places were more chaotic, hard, and anecdotes, Yi Zhongzheng must have been a well-informed person, but he, like Si Sheng, rarely mentioned the past. Therefore, Si Sheng didn't bother with him.
Before I knew it, I walked to the door of the locked store.
I usually find someone to take care of and clean it, but it still can't cover the traces left by time on the façade.
Broken and old, the sign is faded and missing, the walls are mottled, the façade is painted, and when you look up, you look like a twilight old man who is crumbling towards the sunset.
Si Sheng pushed the wheelchair to the door, took out the key, opened the door, and lifted the roller shutter.
It had not been ventilated for a long time, and the rotten and dull air was still covered in dust, Si Sheng took a step back, and saw the furnishings inside that were exactly the same as in his memory—all this time, it had not changed.
As soon as he put the key away, Si Sheng put it in his pocket with one hand, and smiled at Yi Zhongzheng, "Lao Yi, are you opening the lock shop for me?"
Yi Zhongzheng, who was sleepy and basking in the sun, heard the sound, lifted his eyelids, and looked at her with disgust.
"The older you get, the thicker your skin becomes. ”
"It's nothing to admit," Si Sheng chuckled and walked behind him, "I've heard that when you were on a business trip, you threw me at the neighbor's house, and the neighbor didn't take care of me and let me close the ghost door for a while, so you decided to open a lock shop near your home." ”
“......”
Yi Zhongzheng ignored her.
Si Sheng stretched out his hand and straightened his hat, "I dragged you down, don't you regret it?"
The knitted hat was knitted by Si Sheng at home, and he didn't want to lose it, but he was shown to Yi Zhongzheng in advance by Ling Xize, who said it was okay, and accepted it very reluctantly.
"Si Sheng, don't keep thinking about it, the bond with others is deep, as soon as others sacrifice something for you, you will be like you owe someone. Yi Zhongzheng said very slowly, but every word was clear, "Have you done anything to disappoint me over the years?"
"Didn't you?"
"Not all choices are right or wrong. Yi Zhongzheng said word by word, "You are brave enough, independent, strong, and always do what you want to do." There are very few people in this world who can do what you do. ”
"Oh," Si Sheng lowered her head slightly, looked at the lock shop, and saw the sunlight shining in, and the dust particles jumping in the air, she asked again, "Then will you be proud?"
"Hmm. ”
A fluttering word affirmed everything about Si Sheng.
Her reckless childhood, her youthful and frivolous youth, her wandering youth......
No one has been doing the right thing all their lives.
And she's been doing what she wants.
That's enough for him to be proud.
The wings of his nose moved slightly, Si Sheng blinked, raised his head slightly, and pushed Yi Zhongzheng into the lock store.
"Si Sheng. ”
At the moment of entering the door, Yi Zhongzheng suddenly stopped her.
"Huh?"
Si Sheng paused.
Yi Zhongzheng raised his head slightly, and in the bright sunlight, he saw Si Sheng, who was looking down against the light, and said slowly, "You will encounter a lot of things in your life, so don't be trapped by one thing." ”
The breeze blew, sweeping Si Sheng's long scattered hair, swaying gently in the sun.
"I know. ”
Gently three words, with a gust of wind, blew through Yi Zhongzheng's ear, blew through the dilapidated lock shop, and blew towards the sunny sky.
*
Si Sheng pushed Yi Zhongzheng and walked a long way.
went to the lock shop, saw Grandpa Wang in the fruit shop, passed through the park to bask in the sun, and passed by the door of Grandpa Song and Grandpa Qin, chatting a few words, until one o'clock in the afternoon, she pushed Yi Zhongzheng and returned to the yard.
It's rare that after walking around for so long, Yi Zhongzheng can stay awake, and he seems to be in good spirits.
Pushing him into the bedroom, Si Sheng helped him to the bed and lay down.
"Do you have an appetite, would you like something to eat? I can make it for you. Si Sheng asked.
"You do?"
Yi Zhongzheng threw her a questioning look.
Si Sheng blinked, and then suddenly realized that she had never cooked anything for Yi Zhongzheng.
After a slight pause, Si Sheng said a little weakly: "I made it, the taste is okay." ”
"Tofu brain?" Yi Zhongzheng asked.
“......”
Si Sheng had nothing to say.
Glancing at her again, Yi Zhongzheng said lightly: "Go and pour a glass of water." ”
"Oh. ”
Si Sheng pursed his lips, picked up the water cup on the bedside table, turned around and walked out the door.
Not much.
Si Sheng, who rinsed the cup and came back after pouring most of the cup of water, knocked on the door and walked in.
"Lao Yi—"
Si Sheng's words came to an abrupt end.
In the open and airy window, a wind slowly blew in, lifting the corner of the curtain.
Yi Zhong was lying on the bed, his eyes closed, very peaceful.
