Volume II: Chapter Twenty-Six: Rosemary Dew of the Sea

"Oh, okay, I'll go home, goodbye Aunt He." Nan Nan said as she quickly got out of bed and put on her shoes. She really didn't want to see He Qin's bleak smile again, Nan Nan was already sensitive, she was more able to perceive any kind of emotional changes shown by others than ordinary people, just like now, Nan Nan was keenly aware that He Qin was now smiling, and He Qin seemed to want to be alone more than having the company of others.

Nan Nan got out of bed in a panic, and before she could get out of the way of a few years old, she was stopped by He Qin: "Medicine, don't forget to take the medicine on the table." ”

Nan Nan stopped suddenly, turned her head to look at the medicine on the table, she was really in a hurry, forgot to take it, Yu Ti Nan Nan had to turn around, take the medicine in a step, when she lifted the plastic bag containing the medicine, Nan Nan turned her head sideways and said to He Qin: "Thank you, Auntie, I will come on time to pick you up from the hospital in two days." ”

"Okay, I remember, I'll be here waiting for you to come." He Qin raised her eyes to look at Nan Nan and smiled again, but there was a trace of exhaustion on her face.

"Auntie, I'm leaving, goodbye." Nan Nan saw that He Qin's face was not good, so she thought about hurrying out of the ward so that she could rest.

When He Qin heard this, she just nodded, and her face suddenly turned a little pale.

When Nan Nan saw this, she walked to the door of the ward room, but when she just put her hand on the handle of the door, Nan Nan seemed to suddenly remember something, stopped again, turned around, and stepped back in front of He Qin's bed. At this time, He Qin turned her head, looked through the glass window, looked outside, He Qin's eyes were a little gloomy, her eyes originally seemed to have stars twinkling, but at the moment they were also darkened, He Qin seemed to notice that Nan Nan did not leave, so he turned his head to look, saw Nan Nan standing in front of him, and asked suspiciously: "Huh?" Girl, what's wrong? Why did you come back again?"

"I'll pour you a new cup of hot water, I promised." Nan Nan said with a serious face, in fact, she was a little apprehensive, because she saw He Qin's blank expression, Nan Nan was not sure if He Qin would care if others would see her again, after all, He Qin had always shown a smile and a very cheerful look. In addition, Nan Nan felt a little afraid, because He Qin's expression showed that Nan Nan was very familiar, which was her usual expression for a long time, which was a kind of confusion, and it was a kind of indifference to life and death.

"Haha, how can you be so upright, stupid, and weird." Listening to Nan Nan's words, He Qin was also amused by her hearty smile, and the most unhappy eyes swept over, and replaced with the laughter and happiness that were sincerely revealed, He Qin turned to point to the table next to her with her finger and said: "The kettle is inside, let's pour hot water." ”

Nan Nan walked in the direction He Qin pointed out, and she was a little happy, because He Qin finally laughed again, and there was no hint of falsehood. Nan Nan didn't want to see He Qin's face show that indifferent look, she was very scared, because it was when there was an inseparable relationship with death, so that people would show it on their faces and overflow in their eyes without feeling it.

Nan Nan put all this behind for the time being, she thought that maybe she had thought about it too much, after all, He Qin seemed to be such a cheerful person, and all the animals and plants with strong vitality that sprouted in March may not be as vivid as her.

Nan Nan walked to the front of the table cabinet next to He Qin's bed, squatted down, and opened the wooden door of the table cabinet, but there was a burst of fragrant smell, which was very strong. In an instant, it filled every breath of air in the entire room, and tightly surrounded Nannan, lingering around her, and it did not disperse for a long time. This fragrance is very special, both fragrant and mellow, with some mysterious meaning, but not pungent, but it makes Nan Nan very sober all of a sudden, there is a refreshing feeling, and it makes people very relaxed, very calm and relaxed.

Nan Nan smelled the smell, felt a little surprised, she looked carefully into the table cabinet, there was a large blue unpatterned hot water kettle, next to the kettle is some gift boxes containing food and drink, there are two or three boxes, the box is very large, the packaging is also very exquisite, but it looks like it has not been opened, and behind these things, piled up in a corner, it seems to be a bouquet of flowers, but this bouquet of flowers is shrunk in the corner, where the light is dim, Nan Nan can't see what kind of flowers it is.

"Take out the flowers in it." He Qin said, her voice was very soft, but it was also a little heavy, Nan Nan looked up at He Qin, He Qin's face had no expression, even if she had her innate smiling lips, but Nan Nan didn't have any smile, and He Qin's eyes were very complicated, Nan Nan couldn't understand, it seemed that the hand was disappointed, and there was some sentimentality, and a little relief, more just a heaviness, Nan Nan didn't know if it was her own illusion, She actually found something from He Qin's eyes that was similar to her mother's love when she looked at her, but it was not so simple, He Qin's love didn't seem to exist purely between relatives, but more, it was something that Nan Nan didn't understand.

Nan Nan still did as He Qin instructed, she first held the hot water kettle in both hands and served it on the table, because it was too much of a hindrance to hold the pills in her hand, Nan Nan had to put the plastic bag on the ground first. Then, Nan Nan squatted down again, she first picked up the pills, and then didn't stand up, she directly raised her hand and put it on the table, and then, Nan Nan squeezed those gift boxes to the side, small

With his heart, he took the bouquet of flowers in the shadows with both hands.

When Nan Nan took the bouquet out of the table, she was able to see its full face. It was a bouquet of flowers carefully wrapped in light blue wrapping paper. The flower belonged to a shrub plant, with a long cylindrical stem, and on this branch were one after another, opposing small blue flowers, the petals were also elongated, some of the tips of the petals were turned outward, some were pulled inward, they were scattered and bloomed, not closed and opened, these petals were thin, but also very small, very beautiful. It's just that some of the petals have fallen off and landed in the innermost part of the wrapper.

"Rosemary." Nan Nan stood up, put the flowers on the table, and couldn't help but speak.

"Do you recognize this flower?" He Qin's tone brought a little surprise to him.

"Well, I know. My mom had a lot of insomnia for a while, and her heart hurt from time to time. After that, she soaked the petals of this flower in water and drank it, and the effect was very good, and she did not suffer from insomnia or palpitations. Nan Nan said as she took the stopper on the thermos and poured a full cup of hot water for He Qin again. But Nan Nan felt very strange, because this flower was not usually given away as a patient

rosemary is usually a flower that appears in the context of commemorating someone who has passed away.

"I love rosemary." He Qin's eyes kept staring at the flower, but there was some sadness in her eyes, she turned to Nan Nan again, and asked, "Do you know that rosemary has another name?"

"It's the dew of the sea." Nan Nan also looked at He Qin, and she reached out and took the pills that were placed on the table. Answering He Qin's question, Nan Nan had an intuition that rosemary seemed to have a different and special emotional existence for He Qin.

"yes, it has a nice name." He Qin said, stretched out her left hand, lightly tapped the petals of rosemary, and immediately retracted it, but her eyes were looking at the flower from beginning to end. Then, He Qin stopped talking again, her face was a little stunned, and the unstoppable sadness.

After a long time, He Qin finally stopped looking at the bouquet of rosemary, but she didn't look at Nannan, but lay flat on the bed, raised her eyes to look at the ceiling, and after a long time, she said: "But the flower language of this flower is not as beautiful as its name." ”

Nan Nan knows that the flower language of rosemary has two meanings, one is to remember, keep memories, and wipe away the sadness of memories. There is also commemoration, which, in Italy, represents respect and remembrance for the deceased. In Victorian Britain, however, it was a symbol of long-lasting love, loyal friendship, and eternal remembrance. Regardless of which two meanings of these, they all contain sadness to a greater or lesser extent, whether it is memories or thoughts, which seem to be expressed to people in the past, or to the deceased.

Therefore, Nan Nan did not answer He Qin with this, not so much that He Qin was using this to throw out questions and want to arouse the questions of the bucket group, but rather that she was actually talking to herself. And the flower language of rosemary is indeed as she said, the well is not so beautiful, and Nan Nan is even more reluctant to say it, she always feels that it will make He Qin even more sad and sad, and therefore painful.

"Aunt He, I'll go first." Nan Nan whispered, She didn't want to continue to disturb He Qin, sometimes the silence of two people is much more difficult than that of one person alone.

"Okay." He Qin glanced at Nan Nan, her eyes were full of tiredness, she just responded to Nan Nan with a single word, and her voice sounded weak, and then He Qin closed her eyes as if she was about to rest.

Just as Nan Nan was about to walk away, she saw several children around the lawn through the glass window.
