Chapter 56: Kindness Needs Care
"Grandparents, I'll go fetch water and soak your feet. Come in one by one. Zhou Qianlin turned around and beckoned to Lan Jue. This was the first time she had greeted Lan Jue within half an hour of coming here.
Lan Jue was stunned for a moment, then walked over and came to her.
Immediately afterward, he felt a group of scrutinizing eyes.
"Hey, Linlin, is this your boyfriend?" Grandma Meng's eyes lit up, as if there was a fire of gossip burning.
Zhou Qianlin's face flushed, and she hurriedly shook her head, and said, "No, he is my friend." Then she hurriedly said to Lan Jue: "Come in with me and help me fetch water." ”
As she spoke, she tugged at Lan Jue's sleeve and hurried into the door on the other side of the garden.
On both sides of the long corridor are doors, each with a number.
"Why are you pulling me away in such a hurry?" Lan Jue asked suspiciously.
Zhou Qianlin said: "The grandparents care about me too much, if you don't leave, it will not be easy for you to get out." With you today, help me fetch water, it will be faster. ”
With that, she pulled Lan Jue into a room, which was simply furnished, with a circle of wooden chairs, and a ring of steel frames on the roof, on which there were hooks.
"This is where grandfathers and grandmothers usually get injections." Zhou Qianlin gave a brief introduction, and walked to an electric water heater by the side with Lan Jue, next to the water heater, there was a stack of basins.
Zhou Qianlin picked up a basin, began to connect the hot water, and said to Lan Jue: "The cold water pipe is outside." You go and call some in, and I'll adjust the water temperature. ”
Lan Jue said curiously: "Why do you want to wash the feet of these old people?" ”
Zhou Qianlin said naturally: "Grandpa and grandma are old, and it is inconvenient to bend over. And soaking your feet helps with blood circulation. ”
As she spoke, the basin in front of her had been filled with hot water, and she placed it on the ground, then took off the schoolbag behind her back.
When Zhou Qianlin opened the schoolbag, Lan Jue was just above her, and she could clearly see the contents of the schoolbag.
In Zhou Qianlin's schoolbag, there are no cosmetics, no accessories or playthings, except for books, there are only two bags, one large and one small.
She took out the small bag first, put back the nail clippers she had used before, and the small bag contained various tools, nail clippers, scissors, haircut pushes and other tools.
Then she took out the big bag again, and when she opened it, Lan couldn't help but be even more surprised when she saw what it contained.
"What are you doing with so many orange peels?" Lan Jue asked curiously.
Zhou Qianlin smiled slightly, and said a little proudly: "I don't know." After soaking the orange peel in hot water, soaking your feet in warm water can not only promote blood circulation, but also remove the stratum corneum on your feet, making your skin soft and moisturized, and less likely to dry out. ”
"You know that, too?" Lan Jue said in surprise.
Zhou Qianlin pursed her lips and smiled, "Go get water." ”
"Oh." Lan Jue said yes and walked out.
There were four old people in the first batch to walk in, and they sat down in an orderly manner, and when Lan Jue walked back, the eyes of the old people were suddenly focused on him, with a curious look.
"What are you doing, young man?"
"Aren't you really Linlin's boyfriend?"
"Well, young man, although you look good, but you're still a little short of our Linlin, you have to come on!"
"If you dare to bully our family Linlin, be careful that I beat you."
Lan Jue's head was a little big, but he could deeply feel the care that these old people didn't hesitate to care for Zhou Qianlin.
The four pots of orange peel warm water were quickly concocted by Zhou Qianlin with the help of Lan Jue. She brought the basin to the old people, carefully took off their shoes and socks, and pulled up their trousers. Then pick up their feet and put them in the water.
Her movements are very skillful, and she does not hesitate from beginning to end. The old people had smiles on their faces, and their dim eyes were full of the taste of enjoyment.
"Do you usually come by yourself?" Lan Jue asked while helping her fetch water.
Zhou Qianlin said: "Xiaomi will also come with me, she has something to do today, or I won't let you come with me." Have you never done this kind of work, and you are a little uncomfortable? ”
Lan Jue shook his head.
Zhou Qianlin said: "Then I will delay you for some time today, every grandfather and grandmother has to soak for twenty minutes, until their bodies sweat slightly, and the effect is the best." ”
Lan Jue said: "Why are you doing this? ”
Zhou Qianlin looked at him a little strangely, "There's no why!" The elderly need to be taken care of, so I came. And, with them, I'm so happy. My grandfather and grandmother died in the war. But here, I have so many grandfathers and grandmothers. They all have a wealth of experience, and I especially enjoyed listening to them tell their own stories. If it weren't for the fact that I was too nervous about studying, I would have liked to come more. ”
"Oh."
Soak your feet, wash your feet, and wipe them. And so on.
It took more than two hours for Zhou Qianlin to finish this, and she didn't waste time during the old man's foot soaking, cleaning up the room for each of them, and taking their dirty clothes to the laundry room to wash and dry.
When I walked out of Enji Hospital, it was already night. Lan Jue took the bag for Zhou Qianlin and stood at the door of the hospital, Zhou Qianlin crossed her fingers and held it high above her head, stretching her delicate body. The soft curves are particularly touching in the evening light.
Lan Jue carried her bag on her back and pushed the bicycle, "Are you tired?" ”
"I'm not tired, I'm used to it. What about you? I see that you adapt quite quickly, and grandpa and grandma seem to like you a lot. I didn't expect the nobles to do this, hehe. Zhou Qianlin's smile at Lan Jue was obviously more than before, in the previous two hours, except for the beginning, Lan Jue had always been helping her, and his three-piece suit was already a little wrinkled.
Lan Jue smiled and said: "Honoring the old man means respecting history, which is what we should do." ”
"Send me home." Zhou Qianlin said.
Lan Jue patted the back seat of the car, stepped into the car first, Zhou Qianlin naturally sat up, this time, her hand was directly on his waist.
The bicycle slowly moved forward, and Lan Jue asked, "How long have you been here?" ”
"It's been more than two years." Zhou Qianlin said subconsciously.
"Tomorrow night, do you have time?" Lan Jue asked.
Zhou Qianlin was stunned, "What are you doing?" ”
"I have a friend who wants to cook a delicious meal for us to eat, can I bring a friend with me, will you come with me?" Lan Jue asked.
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Qianlin's beautiful eyes, but in the depths of the surprise, there were some other things hidden.
"Why are you inviting me to dinner?"
Lan Jue smiled and said, "Kindness needs care. ”
