Chapter 41: The Messy Wind
When I opened the envelope, there was a letterhead inside, and Liu Wei's handwriting was clean and tidy:
Xiaoxiao, I haven't seen her for a few days, and I miss it as usual. The dry leaves blown off by the east wind can't express my withered feeling that I can't see you. However, family affairs are entangled and we can't see each other. And I will miss this note. Write a poem to talk about the mood at the moment:
I am a leaf,
You are gentle with the wind.
I want to go with you all over the world,
But he couldn't get out of the tether of the branches.
————
But I believe that one day I will be free.
So, I waited with my youth,
Because, I'm young.
————
Finally, on a cold autumn day,
I broke free from the branches,
At your pace,
Slowly falling to the ground.
I thought I could fly with you,
But I forgot,
Waiting to be consumed,
Not only my youth,
It's my life.
————
With the last of my strength,
Let the smile freeze in this morning,
Looking at you,
Far away.
Looking at every word Liu Wei wrote, what I read was sadness except for longing.
After folding this piece of paper, I don't know if this should be called a love letter, but I think that between the lines, although there is love, it is sadness. Such a heartbreaking text is called a love letter, which is probably not appropriate.
Hide at the bottom of the box, let this text stay in your heart.
The next morning, I still got up and cleaned up, and went home to say hello to my stepmother, after all, today is the Lantern Festival. I made another call to my father, and after that, I hurried to Li Jie's house to see what she needed, and she gave me the key to her house.
Li Jie was still wearing yesterday's clothes, with the same movements as yesterday, lying on the bed with her eyes closed.
I hurriedly cleaned up some of the things she had used on the table, threw them away, washed them, swept the floor and mopped the table in one go, and she still didn't move.
I don't know if she's still asleep and don't dare to disturb. Just go out and see what breakfast you can buy, and buy some midday dishes by the way. In my pocket, there were only about two dozen pieces left, and I held it in my hand and cried in my heart.
Li Jie doesn't know if she still has money, and in the current situation, I'm embarrassed to ask her, what should I do? It is impossible to find Wang Feng again...... Alas, let's find the wronged boss.
"Hey, Chen Yingjie, come here, I'll wait for you at the entrance of Li Jie's village."
"This girl, you have the wrong person!"
"Shut up, you hurry, if you don't come again, I'll starve to death, woo woo."
"Oh sister, why do you always harass me when I'm sleeping, can you change the time."
"Chen Yingjie, can you bear to see that I have no money in my pocket, and I still have to be hungry to be a servant of cattle and horses?"
"Then who do you blame? Self-inflicted. Obviously, Chen Yingjie's words are correct, but I don't feel good when I listen to them. yes, I brought it on myself. Should I just look at Li Jie like this and ignore it? If I don't know, I don't care. But now that I know, my conscience tells me, no! I can't.
"Okay, goodbye." My mood fell to the freezing point all of a sudden, and I hung up without waiting for Chen Yingjie to speak.
Alas......
Within ten seconds, Chen Yingjie's phone call came again.
I picked up the phone and didn't make a sound, only heard Chen Yingjie say: "Xiaolong I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm wrong, I owe it, I shouldn't say you so smoothly." You didn't ask for it, you blame me and blame me, okay? I shouldn't have told you, I wouldn't have so much trouble if I didn't tell you, Xiaolong, you wait, I'll go over right now. A few minutes, very quickly. ”
Chen Yingjie said in a crackling breath and hung up directly, never waiting for me to reply. Probably he thought I was angry with him and just hung up the phone, but in fact, I wasn't angry with anyone. If you really want to be angry, it must be Li Jie's irresponsible person.
As a man, how can you be like this, dare to do it. And it's still such a thing, it's light to scold him shamelessly. Typical scumbag! I don't know what kind of bad luck Li Jie has fallen, she always encounters such a thing. Not to mention spending money, it also hurts the body, and it also takes an innocent little life.
Just as he was sighing, he saw Chen Yingjie running over from a distance.
"Xiaolong, are you still angry with me?" Panting, he quickly curry favor with me and handed me a bacon flatbread before he could recover from his breath.
"Eat, I just ordered my mother to use the microwave to heat it for you in between my brushing teeth, which was specially asked for by you in the big restaurant when we had a group dinner last night, and the bacon flatbread and gourd chicken are particularly famous."
I took the steaming bacon flatbread, and the smell came to my nose immediately.
Bite down, it's so delicious, it's really the handiwork of the hotel.
"Here you go, I'm afraid you'll choke, and you won't have time to buy anything else, the milk tea brewed at home."
"Uh-huh, thanks."
I ignored him, until I finished eating the bacon flatbread and drinking milk tea, then I glanced at Chen Yingjie, who kept chattering, and said faintly: "I'm not angry with you, I'm thinking, I don't have money to buy vegetables, and it's hard to find Li Jie, so I can only look for you." ”
"Then you didn't say it earlier? I came out in a hurry, and I didn't bring any money! ”
"I still have more than 20 yuan, I don't need to buy breakfast now, the money for buying vegetables is enough, I'll get it from you when I go back in the evening."
"Xiaoxiao, what are you going to eat for twenty yuan? Don't you know that you have to eat well in confinement? ”
Confinement? I said in my heart, where is this, Chen Yingjie is too good at fooling together.
He saw that I didn't speak, so he continued: "Although Li Jie is not giving birth, my mother said that it is about the same, and you must eat better to make up for it." In this way, you go back to Li Jie's house first, and I will go to my mother to ask for the specific menu, and then buy it and send it to you, is this okay? ”
"Ingjie ...... Why would your mom tell you that? I, I really, thought it was incredible. ”
"What's this? That's what I asked! ”
"...... you asked?"
"That's right, I'll just ask her directly, what should people who have had an abortion pay attention to!"
"When did you ask? Didn't your mom ask you why you asked this? ”
"I thought the day before yesterday, it seems, I asked before she had surgery. But at that time, I also asked casually, and my mother asked if it was my girlfriend, and I said no, but she didn't say much. So wait a minute, I'll ask her to write me a menu. ”
"Chen Yingjie, your mother actually asked if it was your girlfriend? Does your family think like that? ”
"Xiaoxiao, isn't that normal?"
"However, if I dare to ask my dad like this, I will definitely be killed."
"You're a girl, of course it's not like a boy. My dad also gave me popular science knowledge about this, men, it's different. My dad was mainly afraid that if he didn't tell me, he would cause some of my improper thoughts and go astray. Alright, let's not talk about it, you can go inside. I'll go back first, and I'll see you at noon. By the way, you'd better say hello to Li Jie, or when I come over, what if she doesn't like it, bye-bye. ”
Chen Yingjie disappeared into his nagging, leaving me messy in the cold wind.
Back at Li Jie's house, she had woken up and was half-leaning on the bed.
"Xiaojie, what do you want to eat?"
She shook her head, "Xiaoxiao, you're here." ”
"I've been here for a long time, you haven't seen that the room has been cleaned, I'll go get you something to eat."
"Xiaoxiao, you can help me make a poached egg."
I promised, by the way, to tell her that Chen Yingjie would buy vegetables and send them at noon. She thought for a moment, nodded, said a good word, and didn't say anything more.
