Chapter 76: Happy Birthday 2
"It's fine." Chen Xiangqin shook her head with a smile and said very enthusiastically, "Eldest sister, where is your position, can I help you carry your things?" β
"No, it's here, it's already here." The woman said politely and coldly.
"What a coincidence, we're across from you." Chen Xiangqin knew that she was here, and she could get along with her for two days and one night, so she felt very happy inexplicably, and immediately grabbed Zhang Chenyi and introduced, "Sister, my name is Chen Xiangqin, this is my husband Zhang Chenyi, we are going to Beijing, what about you?" Can you tell us your name? β
"I'll also go back to Beijing, my name is Zhong Yue, you can call me Aunt Yue." Zhong Yue smiled faintly, this smile instantly dispelled some of the gloom between her eyebrows and eyes, making her look a little more beautiful.
The charm is still there, and this word instantly appeared in Chen Xiangqin's mind, which is very suitable for her.
"Aunt Yue, you are so young, I call you aunt, I think I have to call you old." Chen Xiangqin said with a smile.
"Not old, if my child were still alive, he would be as old as you." Zhong Yue said lightly.
Chen Xiangqin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly looked annoyed, "...... I'm sorry Aunt Yue, but I mentioned you sadly. β
"No problem." Zhong Yue opened the travel bag, took out a small thin blanket from it, put the pillow away, and after lying down, she first covered the blanket, pulled over the quilt, and turned to face the wall.
It's a wordless rejection.
Chen Xiangqin stared at her back for a while and felt that there was something wrong with her, why did she suddenly care so much about a strange woman?
She has never been an enthusiastic self-acquaintance, and such a reaction is simply inexplicable!
"You know her?" Zhang Chenyi pulled her, let her sit beside him, and asked in a low voice.
"Nope. I feel kind. Very good. Chen Xiangqin shook her head.
"Ahem...... Ahem...... "At this moment, Zhong Yue began to cough again, and I saw that her whole body was curled up into shrimp because of the cough, and she looked even thinner and weaker.
Chen Xiangqin listened to the coughing sound, and felt that her heart was about to be lifted, as if she was being grabbed by someone, which was very uncomfortable.
She looked at Zhong Yue again and again, and wanted to stand up several times to ask about her condition, but seeing the other party's back so rejecting thousands of miles away, Chen Xiangqin didn't dare to go up to annoy her.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Chenyi saw that she was restless, his face was entangled, and he immediately asked.
Chen Xiangqin frowned, lowered her voice very low, and listened to the tone of distress, "Hey, do you think I'm sick?" Why am I so worried when I hear her coughing like this? It's because of my grandfather, I just can't hear other people's coughs now, and I feel uncomfortable when I cough, alas......"
Zhang Chenyi shook her hand comfortingly, knowing that it might take a long time for her to come out of the pain of her grandfather's death.
After a minute, Chen Xiangqin took out a small bag of dried meat and meatballs from her bag, took out another packet of brown sugar, picked up the cup, and was about to go outside.
"What are you going to do?"
"I'm going to bribe the chef in the dining car to boil a glass of brown sugar ginger water, don't look at me like that, I also know I'm sick, but I've given up treatment." In order to prevent Zhong Yue from hearing it, Chen Xiangqin leaned on Zhang Chenyi's ear and said almost in a breath, "If you don't do something, I feel uncomfortable listening." β
ββ¦β¦ Then you go and come back quickly. Zhang Chenyi was amused by her helpless laughter, but he didn't stop it, he felt that after his daughter-in-law came out of the house, the whole person was much more cheerful and interesting, which was quite good.
Twenty minutes later, Chen Xiangqin came back with a glass of brown sugar ginger water, and stood there hesitantly looking at Zhong Yue, who was lying on the bed, as if he had fallen asleep.
Are you going to wake her up?
Wake her up and give her brown sugar ginger water, it will be considered sick!
If a stranger is so kind to her, her first reaction is not to be moved, but to feel embarrassed, and she will be wary of it, feeling that the other party is not well-intentioned.
Chen Xiangqin stared at it for a minute, and then stood there as if she had been pointed, untilβ
"Ahem......"
With this cough, Chen Xiangqin, who was startled, immediately moved, she hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Aunt Yue, I have a cup of brown sugar ginger water here, it's still hot, you cough so badly, drink a little, it will be more comfortable." I'm a bit troubled, but I don't have any bad intentions, the main thing is that you are very kind, so I ......"
"Thank you!" Zhong Yue turned around, sat up, and smiled gently at her, "Thank you very much." Makes you bother. β
"No bother, simple. Then you hurry up and drink it while it's hot, do you bring medicine with you for this cold and cough reliever? The cough is so bad, I still have to take medicine, go to the hospital early for examination and treatment......"
Chen Xiangqin handed her the cup, said a series of instructions, and as she spoke, she looked at Zhong Yue again, which made Chen Xiangqin embarrassed.
God knows, she's not a psychopath, it's just like this to her, mainly because listening to her cough makes me feel a little like I care and feel uneasy about my grandfather.
ββ¦β¦ I'm sorry I annoyed you. Drink it, I won't talk about it. Chen Xiangqin smiled extremely embarrassed.
"I'm not annoyed. Thank you for your concern. Zhong Yue smiled faintly, and a cup of brown sugar underwatered her stomach, which warmed her body and dispelled the coldness in her heart.
Zhong Yue raised his eyes and looked at Chen Xiangqin in front of him, a little happy, but more of the pain that was aroused. This child, she also felt cordial and wanted to be close, and when she saw her for the first time, she also fantasized about how good it was that the other party was her daughter.
It's a pity that my daughter has passed away a long time ago, and all expectations and fantasies are painful.
"Aunt Yue, you're from Beijing, right? Did you come to Feng County to visit relatives? Chen Xiangqin saw that she didn't continue to lie down and sleep after drinking, so she wanted to talk to her more.
"Hmm." Zhong Yue said, "Come and see my daughter." β
ββ¦β¦ You, your daughter is not...... Passed away? Chen Xiangqin was stunned.
"So, I come to see her every year. Everyone forgot about her, only me. Zhong Yue looked into the distance, the whole person seemed to be shrouded in darkness, and his voice was cold and piercing.
Chen Xiangqin wants to bite off her tongue, making you talk more, and provoking other people's sadness!
The conversation ended, and Zhong Yue lay down again.
Chen Xiangqin looked at her back in frustration, inexplicably distressed for her, Aunt Yue was obviously immersed in the grief of her daughter's death and couldn't get out.
Seeing that she was depressed, Zhang Chenyi took her hand and said, "Come and see the surprise I gave you." β
"What is it?" Chen Xiangqin knew that he was coaxing himself and didn't want to disappoint him, so he asked with a smile, "I smell the sweet fragrance, could it be a cake?" β
"Clever!" Zhang Chenyi took it out of the black bag, "I'm worried that Haozi won't be able to buy it, so I made longevity noodles for you in the morning." However, this cake should also be eaten. β
"Wow, this birthday of mine, it can be described as a combination of Chinese and Western." Chen Xiangqin shook his hand with a smile and said, "Brother Yi, this is the best birthday I've ever had. Thank you. β
"Today, it's your birthday?" Zhong Yue suddenly turned to look at her.
