Chapter 9: More Than Years (2)
Zhao Qianqiu slept on the road, and when she woke up, Qinghe had already taken her to the vicinity of her aunt's house, Qianqiu called her, the phone was still busy, she got out of the car, and didn't let Qinghe accompany her, "You wait for me here for a while, I'll go over and take a look and come back." ”
My aunt is usually at home at noon, and she rarely goes out to eat because she is used to being thrifty and thrifty, and sure enough, as soon as Qianqiu passed, she saw that she was standing at the intersection and chatting with someone, in good spirits, and even with some joy on her face. It's just that when she saw Qianqiu who was looking at her not far away, the smile suddenly froze, and at that moment, Qianqiu's heart was mixed. But he waved at her.
"Why don't you say a word!" the aunt stopped talking to the man and immediately trotted over.
"I was just discharged from the hospital today, so I'll stop by to take a look at you. Chiaki smiled and took her aunt in her arms and walked in the direction of her house. It's a lie to say that it's a drop by or something, and you won't go through here at all when you get home from the hospital. My aunt knew this, so the moment Chiaki held her, her body couldn't help but pause.
"There have been too many things at home recently, and I can't leave at all, otherwise I wouldn't have to trouble your friends to come over and take care of Wanyu and them in the past two days. In order to alleviate this awkward atmosphere, my aunt casually found a topic, and looked at Qianqiu from time to time when she spoke, as if she was paying attention to her emotions.
"It's okay, anyway, I'm just coming over at night to take a look, Lin Yuan hasn't been very busy in the past two days......" Qianqiu shook her head, she didn't understand why her aunt suddenly said such an outrageous thing, she felt very angry, and it was a little out of place with her aunt, who loved her the most on weekdays.
"......" Aunt didn't pick up Chiaki's words, and kept her head down and was silent, as if thinking about what to say.
"Haven't you been very busy at work lately, I see you've been a lot haggard. "There are several more white hairs on my aunt's head, Qianqiu knows that it is all because of her own affairs, after her mother died, she regarded her aunt as her own mother, blood is such a thing, it will always make people close together, at this moment, Qianqiu still thinks so naively.
"It's not, it's the end of the year, and the factory has begun to have a holiday, but it's ...... at home" My aunt spoke a little slurred, as if she was hiding something in her heart, but she couldn't find the time to say it. However, Chiaki soon realized why she had been so hesitant, because she saw that the outside of her house was built with bamboo frames, and workers were busy painting the exterior walls.
"Is your house being renovated? I haven't heard you talk about it. "Qianqiu hasn't been sleeping well lately, and I'm always worried that something bad will happen to my aunt and I'm afraid of dragging myself down, but looking at the current situation, I should be thinking too much about myself.
"Ah...... That one...... Your cousin has come back with his girlfriend and plans to get married next year, and the house is a bit old and wants to redecorate it. My aunt laughed, and then immediately added, "There are more places to use money now, and we are sad to death." ”
"......" Qianqiu's heart suddenly chuckled, even a fool knows the intention of his aunt to say this, how can a niece be as important as her own son, and after comparing it, Qianqiu knows her own weight.
"However, if you need money, tell me and I'll find a way to borrow it for you. Aunt probably saw that Qianqiu's face was not very good at the moment, and immediately accompanied a smile.
"I still have some there, don't rush it. Qianqiu shook his head, the money was running out, and he couldn't say anything about being killed.
"How did you get here, did that friend of yours send you here?" the aunt stopped and paused to ask more.
"Well, wait outside. Chiaki nodded.
"Then don't let the family wait too long, the smell of paint here is a bit heavy, and I have moved to live with his uncle, you are not well, don't stay here for too long, my aunt is fine, you don't have to worry too much." "My aunt is admonishing, and every time Qianqiu listens to a word, the door in her heart closes a point, and her heart turns upside down, but she still remains as if nothing happened.
"Well, then I should go back too, otherwise Qinghe will be in a hurry. Chiaki nodded, understanding. Just as she finished saying this, as soon as she turned around, Qinghe was a few meters away, pacing over here, "Qinghe is here, then I'm leaving." ”
"That ......" Qinghe was about to speak, and was pulled by Chiaki.
"Don't ask anything, let's go back ......" Kiyowa saw that the corners of Chiaki's eyes were red, as if she was about to cry, and probably already knew what was going on.
On the way back, they didn't say a word, and as soon as they got home, Qianqiu went back to her room and slept without dinner.
"I'm in!" Kiyowa knocked on Chiaki's door, holding the freshly cooked shrimp porridge. There was no response from inside the house, and Zhao Qianqiu stuffed himself in the quilt.
"What's the matter, you're not feeling well?" Qinghe put the porridge on the bedside table next to her, and lifted a little of her quilt, "I've been stuffy like this, I'm going to lack oxygen." ”
"......" Chiaki didn't answer, but her body moved slightly, and she stuck her head out of the bed.
"Or is it because your aunt's affairs are awkward?" Qinghe had already seen through everything, and Qianqiu came back without even entering her aunt's house, her eyes were red, and she was depressed, so she must have suffered a big blow.
"......" Chiaki still didn't answer, just shook her head. She hadn't been so emotional for a long time, and in front of Qinghe, she felt that she was more and more prone to exposing her negative emotions.
"Well, if there's anything you can say, tell me maybe I can help. Qinghe patted it lightly, he seemed to be used to getting along with her like this, in front of her, he tried to keep the sun and warmth, and even feared that she would infect his bad mood.
"My cousin is getting married. After waiting for a long time, Qianqiu said a little reluctantly.
"Oh, it turns out that you are a brother, but our current law no longer allows close relatives to marry. Kiyowa sat down along the edge of the bed, back to back.
"No......" Chiaki shook her head, "This is the reason why my aunt has not had time, the family is decorating the wedding room, and she is going to supervise the work there." ”
"Is that because she is jealous? Aunt left all her time with her cousin, so she felt sad and sad?" Kiyowa turned his head to look at her, and then turned his face back.
As if he was hit by Qinghe, Qianqiu drilled his head back again, like an ostrich, "You say, should I not be treated?" She should have hesitated for a long time, so she thought about discussing with Qinghe, except for Qinghe, she felt that no one else could listen to her words.
"Why do you want to give up? You have a very high five-year survival rate...... The prognosis is also the best, isn't it?" Qinghe was a little puzzled, obviously her condition has been very good recently, and even the nausea reaction of chemotherapy has slowly begun to adapt, so why should she bring it up at this time.
"I just can't hold on anymore, it's too hard. Qianqiu didn't cry, but she was choked when she said this, she even felt that she might be too sensitive now, so she was so glassy, but then she thought about it, if it was someone else, she would smile at most, but it was her aunt, and every change in her expression hurt herself.
"Then you don't want Wanyu and Wanli?" Qinghe didn't poke her heart, just reminded her, he himself often had thoughts of suicide, but more often when he remembered that if he died, his brother and father would look like when they were sad, he hesitated, and compared his heart to his heart, if it was Qianqiu, would she really be able to let go of Wanyu and Wanli?" If you are adopted by a stranger, if your adoptive parents are good, it will be fine, but if you are not good, what if you become abusive all day long. You may say that there is still an aunt here, but the family has to raise three children at once, and no one is happy. Besides, isn't your cousin getting married, how can she allow this to happen?"
"Then what do you say I should do, my illness is a bottomless pit, I'm so afraid that I will die in the future and cause trouble for them!" This time, Zhao Qianqiu finally couldn't help but get his head out of the bed, "I'm afraid that something like that will happen, I'm afraid that they will complain about me in the future!"
"You have done your best as an older sister, and I don't think anyone will blame you. Qinghe turned around and pinched her face, "You still have something I can rely on, don't you, haven't I been here all the time, can't you see it?" Didn't I say it a long time ago, you can discuss anything with me, and I will do everything I can." ”
"Then you have more important people after that?" Chiaki raised her eyes and looked into Kiyowa's eyes at the moment.
"There will probably be no more important person than you in the future. Qinghe smiled at her, "Can you persist for me?" Although I know that this process is painful and long, as long as we survive this period, we can see Zanxin's future. When the time comes, we will go together to meet the people you want to meet, eat what you want to eat, and go where you want to go...... Accomplish what you haven't wanted to do before......"
"What if I can't wait for that day?" Chiaki grabbed Kiyowa's clothes, "What if I can't wait for that day to come?"
"Yes, didn't the doctor say that your illness was a blessing in misfortune? Now we have to adjust our mentality and be miserable all day long, even healthy people will get sick. We need to do a total of six sessions, and you have already started the third session, which is almost halfway through, so wouldn't it be a pity to give up now? I did the math a little bit, and it's January 24th, and we've finished the treatment at the beginning of May, so it's only been more than three months. It will be able to get through it very quickly. Qinghe said is not unreasonable, as he said, since the beginning of hospitalization, it has been many months, those times have flashed by in his own place, he doesn't even feel anything, he goes to the hospital once every two weeks, he has begun to get used to this kind of life, just an injection and a medicine, chemotherapy is not so terrible.
"En......" Chiaki was persuaded, just these few short words.
"I'll comfort you when you're scared. But before that, we have to eat and drink enough, so that we can have the strength to fight the disease!" Qinghe said and went to serve the porridge he had just cooked, but the porridge had been left for too long and had completely cooled down, "Well, I'll go and heat up the porridge, you don't want to go anywhere if you stay here." ”
