Chapter 67: The Eve
I sat up, wiped away my tears, looked at Ning Meixuan sitting next to me, and found that she was holding a black bag in her arms.
I know this bag, it is the heirloom bag that my mother wrapped just now, it turns out that my mother should have given this thing to Ning Meixuan when she looked for Ning Meixuan just now.
"What's wrong?" I asked, looking at Ning Meixuan.
"Are you alright?" Ning Meixuan looked at me with worried eyes.
"I'm fine. I shook my head.
"You can give this back to Auntie. "Ning Meixuan stuffed that bag into me.
"My mother gave it to you, you can take it. I handed the bag to Ning Meixuan, raised my head, and took a deep breath.
"No, no, it's too expensive, I really can't ask for it. Ning Meixuan resigned.
"Then give it back to her yourself. I stood up and walked to the window.
"I gave it back to my aunt, but my aunt didn't want it to live or die. Ning Meixuan's voice came from behind her.
"It's not really valuable, but it's important to my mom, so if you don't think it's a burden, you can put it away. I said.
Ning Meixuan opened the bag and looked left and right.
In fact, I was very melancholy in my heart, but in front of Ning Meixuan, I tried my best to suppress myself.
I was tempted to smoke a cigarette, but I held back.
The harm of smoke I know, the effect of smoke is only to relieve one's melancholy when no one is around.
Smoking in front of others only brings melancholy and sorrow to others.
I lay on the windowsill and opened the window, and the wind blew in mercilessly with the opening of the window, which was a little cool.
Ning Meixuan also came over and lay beside me.
I just stared into the distance, it was an endless night, the swaying shade was blown from side to side, I wonder if the tree will have feelings, if the tree also has feelings, does this mean that it is sad or happy?
A loud song and dance in the distance came to mind, some melodious, so unscrupulous in the dark night.
I know the custom in the countryside, the night before the wedding and on the wedding day, you have to invite a song and dance troupe to celebrate, this is not the big city of those large-scale and famous song and dance troupes, just some small folk scattered small groups.
It's the sound of suona, and I can't tell if it's sad or happy.
I vaguely remember when I was a child, I liked to listen to these noisy music and watch these lively scenes, but now that time has passed, things are not people, and the carefree heart that used to exist no longer exists.
If the heart is sad, no matter how beautiful the music is, it will only highlight the sadness.
The melodious sound of suona covered all the silent night, but I seemed to hear a crackling sound, maybe it was just my fantasy, I was too worried about my father, worried about his body.
Maybe it was the drunkenness, maybe it was that rainy night, maybe it was a long time together, I looked at Ning Meixuan and felt a sense of intimacy.
I vaguely remember that rainy night, I told Ning Meixuan about my illness.
I've been with Ning Meixuan for so long, maybe she can help me, maybe she's the only one who can help me now.
"Do me a favor, okay?" I didn't turn my head, just looked out the window, where the endless darkness was there, to hide my emotions.
"Hmm, you say?" Ning Meixuan said. I felt Ning Meixuan staring at me, but I still didn't turn my head.
"I don't know how long I'm going to be sick, maybe three months, maybe a month, maybe three days. I was in a state of melancholy and took a deep breath.
"No, you'll be fine, I won't let you be fine!" Ning Meixuan suddenly covered my mouth.
I looked at Ning Meixuan, pulled her hand away, and looked at her.
"Listen to me, no one can say what will happen in the future, I just do this so that I can feel more at ease, so that my parents will not be so sad for me. I said, choking up again.
"What the hell is going on?" Ning Meixuan suddenly turned around and looked out the window, the breeze blew away her bangs, revealing her determined eyes, and I heard her expressionless say, "I will definitely not let you have any trouble." ”
"When I'm gone, I want you to help me hide it from my parents, and if you can, I want you to help me come to see them often. I stood behind Ning Meixuan and looked at her with pleading eyes.
"Don't worry, I've treated them like family. Ning Meixuan suddenly turned to look at me: "Didn't you leave tomorrow as soon as the wedding was over?"
"Well, it's already been said. I nodded.
"Be happy, you'll be fine. Ning Meixuan looked at me: "Rest early, leave early tomorrow." ”
"Thank you. ”
I saw Ning Meixuan's eyes, a little anxious, but also a little expectant, she hurriedly took the thing wrapped in Ding and copper coins and walked out.
I was the only one left in the room, I stood at the window, took out a cigarette, lit it, and looked into the distance wistfully.
Maybe I'm a selfish person, but I don't have those friends flashing in my mind at the moment, just He Yulu who worries me, and my parents.
The smoke was full, and before I finished smoking a cigarette, I quickly snuffed it out, and I was worried that my father hadn't slept yet, so I quietly walked out of the room and went downstairs to have a look.
When I went downstairs, I saw that the light was dark downstairs, silent, and I thought that my parents should have fallen asleep, and I felt much more at ease when I thought about it.
I went upstairs, washed, and lay down on the bed.
Maybe I'm so nervous that I haven't slept well all night, and I'm thinking about the past.
I thought about it a lot, I felt that there was no problem with my thinking, and things were very clear, but when those past events came to my mind, many things were so messy, so confusing, and many things, I seemed reasonable, and now that I think about it, there are indeed many doubts.
I thought of He Yulu, He Yong, and their family, He Yong looked at the situation and the person called Brother Hu was not in the same group, and He Yong was so desperate to protect He Yulu at that time, why did the police say that He Yong wanted to cheat the family's house?
Looking back on what He Yong has done over the years, I don't think it's quite right.
And what is the purpose of Brother Hu's appearance? I haven't figured it out after thinking about it.
There is also the relationship between Lin Zhenhai and her aunt, the relationship between Hu Jing and her father, and the relationship between Ning Meixuan and Lin Zhenhai......
The night was dark, I didn't feel sleepy at all, I lay down in bed and forced myself to sleep.
I closed my eyes and felt like I was confused......
I don't know how long it took, but I woke up in a daze again......
Then, I fell asleep again......
I don't know how long I tossed, but I felt a splitting headache and a knock on the door woke me up.
"The meal is ready, let's eat quickly. It was Ning Meixuan's voice, and it was only six o'clock in the morning.
I said yes in a daze, and then washed my face and brushed my teeth again before I came to my senses.
I looked at myself in the mirror, very handsome, just a little dark circles under my eyes, and there was not much blood on my face.
I didn't care, washed my face, and went down.
Ning Meixuan was the only one downstairs, preparing meals, but my parents were not at home.
Ning Meixuan said that my dad had gone to my aunt's house early, and my mom had gone to Liangzi's house to help.
I was stunned for a moment, my nose was sore, I pinched my face, forced myself to smile, even if I was sad, I would laugh.
During the meal, Ning Meixuan always asked this and that excitedly, but I didn't say anything, and listened absentmindedly.
I saw that Ning Meixuan's smiling face also had a sadness hidden behind it.
Soon after eating, Ning Meixuan and I went in the direction of my aunt's house, and Ning Meixuan took the gifts she bought.
