Chapter Seventy-Two: The Box Is Recovered
Grandma smiled bitterly and took my hand and patted it gently: "I said no, can you do it?"
I subconsciously shook my head, and when I came back to my senses, I quickly lowered my face and didn't dare to make any more moves: "Grandma, Mr. Zhuang is different from his uncle, he is really good." ”
She sighed and smoothed my back a few times, and asked me distressedly if it hurt: "No matter how good it is, it's not yours, he is a woman, I can only teach you a lesson, and then say that you did something wrong this time." I said before that you had a rich boyfriend, and I knew something was wrong, but every time I called, your aunt was there, and I didn't want to ask in detail. I just thought that my family Xixi is very sensible, and he must not be able to do that kind of foolish thing, but I didn't expect it...... Hey, what do you tell me to do?"
She said that her eyes were red again, and she turned her face away and began to wipe her tears.
"Grandma, I'll go back with you, don't cry, okay?" I know what she's uncomfortable with, she thinks it's her who has burdened me, otherwise I wouldn't have been guilty of letting Mr. Zhuang "take care" in exchange for money to operate on her. She must have thought that I would never be able to marry in my life, and what she was most afraid of was that I would follow my aunt's footsteps.
Her attention was finally distracted by the gurgling sound coming from her stomach, after all, she had had surgery, and because she was old, she couldn't bear the hunger at all.
It is estimated that when Sister Liu rushed over with her all the way, she hadn't eaten properly at all, so it was the limit to be able to survive until now.
"Grandma, if you're hungry, we won't be able to leave tomorrow, can I get you something to eat?" I begged for a long time before she agreed to eat Mr. Zhuang's house. After eating, she finally stopped refusing to sleep in bed, presumably because her body was not as good as before after surgery, and she couldn't survive her body at all.
I waited for her to fall asleep and then secretly went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, thinking that I should say goodbye to Mr. Zhuang, but I was very worried that this farewell would become a farewell.
When he hesitated, the sound of soft footsteps came.
I froze and didn't look back, but the hand that was washing the plate was fixed there, not moving.
The familiar and wide embrace grabbed me from behind, turned off the cold water, pulled away the plate in my hand, and then held my hand tightly: "Isn't it a special period, why do you still touch cold water?"
His tone was normal, as if nothing had happened today.
I shuddered, pulled out my hand, and turned to hug him.
I wanted to cry in his arms, but my tears seemed to have dried up in front of my grandmother, and I couldn't cry at all.
"Mr. Zhuang, I am reluctant to leave, but I have to go home with my grandmother, she is not in good health, and if I don't go, I will make her angry. Grandma is my only relative, I can't ignore her feelings, I know I'm sorry for Sister Yaru, I'm so bad, I didn't fulfill the conditions I promised her before, and it hurt you ......"
Before I could finish my sentence, he took me up and kissed me on the cheek.
When that tender kiss fell, all my guilt was choked and my heart was spasming.
I felt like I had never cherished his kisses so much, and I couldn't wait to carve every second of that into my bones. The tingling touch was like a small hand gently tugging at my heartstrings.
"Xixi, don't blame yourself, I didn't handle it well, I should have arranged for you to leave earlier after you came. He said and kissed me again, "Don't blame your grandmother, she's for your good." I didn't want you to put so much pressure on you, but I still couldn't get you to avoid it, do you blame me?"
I shook my head vigorously: "No blame, I'm sorry for Sister Yaru, she deserves to scold me." It's just that I feel very uncomfortable to see my grandmother like this, I'm so unfilial, if something happens to her, don't ......"
He kissed me again, gently biting my lip to prevent me from continuing, and when I gasped and forgot what I was talking before, he sighed and whispered in my ear: "Xixi, your grandmother has some words that are very reasonable, go back and study hard, don't worry about tuition and living expenses, I will call you." ”
"Mr. Zhuang doesn't need it, I have student loans and poverty subsidies...... I usually work on my own to earn money, so I have enough money. "I especially want to prove that I am not with him because I like his money, but in hindsight, why should I prove it to others?
He didn't answer my words, but just folded his arms and hugged me tighter and tighter, almost strangling me out of breath.
But I didn't say anything, and I knew he was reluctant to let me go, but now we can't just care about our own feelings.
How much love needs to give way to life and compromise with reality? That's what scares me the most.
It took him a long time to let go of me, hold my face and slowly trace my features, and praise me in a particularly soft voice: "Xixi, you are beautiful." ”
My heart fluttered slightly, and I also smiled back at him: "Mr. Zhuang, you are very handsome." ”
He finally smiled, and his eyes softened a lot: "Go to sleep." ”
I couldn't help but tighten my arms and hugged hard for two seconds before leaving, but I couldn't help but look back after taking a few steps, and he was looking at me silently.
I took a deep breath and walked back to him: "Mr. Zhuang, can you give me a shirt?"
We don't know when we'll see each other again, and I want to keep a memory.
"Good. ”
Actually, my heart was very heavy, but in order not to worry him, after getting his shirt, I still pretended to pull out a smile at him easily: "Mr. Zhuang, good night." ”
When I left the next day, my grandmother didn't check my backpack, and Mr. Zhuang personally dropped us off at the train station. However, because my grandmother was present, neither I nor Mr. Zhuang made any intimate moves, and when the car was about to leave, I couldn't help but stick to the window glass and waved at him, and moved my lips silently: I'll wait for you.
I don't know if he understood those three words, but he smiled and nodded at me.
I couldn't give up all the way, and every time my grandmother spoke to me, she had to say it several times to call me back to my senses. Seeing the worry in her eyes, I tried to listen to her carefully, but my mind was not under my control at all, and after listening to it for less than three seconds, I began to miss Mr. Zhuang.
My phone rang a few times on the way, and I was afraid that my grandmother would have an opinion when she saw that I was still using this phone, so I didn't dare to take it out to see.
Aunt Tian Hua saw that I came back with my grandmother and knew that something was wrong, and after my grandmother's body recovered almost completely, she stubbornly moved back to her own house, but Aunt Tian Hua would come to see it several times a day, and she always cooked an extra meal. So my grandmother was grateful to Aunt Tian Hua, and when Aunt Tian Hua asked me to go to her house to help pick watermelons and sell them, my grandmother didn't say anything.
"Xixi, your teacher came over to ask if you had gone home, and early the next morning, Sister Liu rushed over to take your mother away, what happened?
I was stunned and didn't react, and when she anxiously asked a second time, I came back to look at her: "Auntie, no, it's not that." Don't worry, I'm sure I won't tell anyone about you. ”
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but because the matter involved Sister Liu, she still asked me a few words uneasily. I chuckled weakly, not knowing what to say to her.
But Aunt Tian Hua quickly thought of Mr. Zhuang and asked me in surprise: "It won't be related to your surrogacy......, right?
My face must be very bad, she suddenly paused when she said this, and then took my hand and criticized: "Did you secretly run to see the child you gave birth to? You are young, you can have another one of your own in the future, don't do this in the future, this is a big taboo in this industry." ”
"Auntie, it's okay. I'll go back first, and I'll have to look for an internship. I fled her house in a hurry, rushed into my room and quickly turned on my phone to read the news.
Jiang Yang called me, but Mr. Zhuang only sent me a voice: Xixi, don't think about anything, take care of yourself for me.
My heart suddenly twitched violently, and I listened to this voice more than a dozen times before finally calming down and calling Jiang Yang back.
"Sister, what's the matter with you? You don't even answer my phone, you won't be tired of being with Zhuangzi in the daytime, right? Brother, I just want to tell you that the box has been recovered, but it is too broken to be used. The diaries are here, don't worry, I'll send them to you when I receive them. ”
"Brother Jiang, I'm not with Mr. Zhuang anymore, can you help me express the diary to me? I'll send you the address right away." ”
Jiang Yang put away the carelessness just now, and suddenly became serious: "Sister, your tone is wrong, is something wrong?" No wonder my eyelids have been jumping for the past two days, tsk...... What's the matter, tell my brother, it won't be a quarrel with Zhuangzi, right?"
"Brother Jiang, it's nothing, I just want my grandmother to come back and see her. "I'm in the mood to explain now that he'll know what happened sooner or later, and I'm not in a hurry to do it for a while.
"Well, that's good, you send the address, and I'll have someone send it directly to your home. By the way, that Su Qianwen in your dormitory, pay attention to it in the future, the box was stolen by her, maybe she will be angry and will target you in the future. If she dares to bully you, remember to tell your brother, and brother will help you teach her a lesson. ”
Su Qianwen is the classmate who said behind my back that my clothes are all counterfeits, and there is no holiday between us.
My days at home were particularly tormenting, I found a job as a temporary worker in the town, and every day I absentmindedly waited for Mr. Zhuang to contact me, but he rarely contacted me, and only said goodnight to me at about ten o'clock every night.
It was only a week later that I received the box, which was coated with all sorts of messy paint and had a big gap. When I took out the diary, my heart "groaned", seeing that the book was crumpled like that, someone must have turned it over.
