Chapter 56: Entrustment

With a feeling of apprehension. Zeppelin rang the doorbell of Tang Feng's house. Tang Feng's home is close to the Bund in Shanghai, which is easy to find.

However, when the door opened, it was the same girl Zeppelin had seen at the subway station.

"How could it be you?"

"Is that you?"

Both were amazed. Tang Feng heard the movement at the door and also came out to look. He still had long thick hair and stubble, and was slightly fatter than the last time I saw him. He still had an apron hanging from his body, as if he hadn't cooked yet.

"Xiao Qi! After all these years, you haven't changed at all! Didn't grow taller either! Tang Feng's humor amused only himself.

"Actually, I've grown a little taller, I'm 175!" Zeppelin replied earnestly.

"Poof." The girl was amused by him, according to her age, she appeared in Tang Feng's house at this time, and nine times out of ten she was Tang Feng's daughter.

"Wan'er, you greet the guests well. Dad's sweet and sour pork ribs are going to be mushy. Tang Feng smelled a burnt smell and hurried back to the kitchen.

Tang Wan'er helped Zeppelin take slippers and hang up his coat. He also praised the fruit he bought.

Mrs. Tang came out of the bedroom in a wheelchair to meet him. Seeing that the two didn't look like they were meeting for the first time, I was also happy that Tang Wan'er could make a friend.

The Tang family made him feel more intimate in a foreign land. He sat on the couch and looked around, surrounded by low-key but warm dΓ©cor, with photos of his family traveling around the world. The sharp corners of the furniture are wrapped in beige foam.

Tang Wan'er showed him the photos and told him interesting things that happened during the trip. But Zeppelin was still wondering why Tang Feng didn't have a guitar at home. Obviously, he was once the best guitarist on stage. Is it time to give up completely?

"Ahh Tang Feng was in a hurry in the kitchen, as if he had broken a bowl. Tang Wan'er wanted to go to the kitchen to help, but was stopped by Mrs. Tang. She looked nervous and said, "Your condition is just under control, don't go to such a dangerous place!" ”

"Condition? Kitchen? Dangerous? Zeppelin was momentarily confused. Tang Wan'er looked ruddy, and although her body was thin, she couldn't show the slightest sickness.

However, at the mention of her illness, Tang Wan'er's face lost the joy she had just now, and suddenly became low again.

"Xiao Qi, how long have you known our Wan'er?" Mrs. Tang asked earnestly.

"It didn't take long for us to meet a few times!" Zeppelin told the truth.

"Then you must be careful when you are with Wan'er, don't let her get hurt, not at all!"

Zeppelin wondered even more why. He had only been in contact with Tang Wan'er for a long time, so how could he talk about hurting her?

"Wan'er, her sick ......" Mrs. Tang choked up as she spoke, Tang Wan'er hugged her mother and comforted, "It's okay, Mom, I'll be fine." Besides, there is also an imported medicine that the doctor prescribed for me, and it works very well! ”

"What medicine? Tang Wan'er, what is your illness? Zeppelin asked worriedly.

"It's hemophilia." Tang Wan'er said with a smile, her tone relaxed as if she was talking about a cold.

"Hemophilia?" It was the first time Zeppelin had heard of the disease. Taking advantage of Tang Wan'er's suspicion of sending her mother back to her room to rest, Zeppelin took out her mobile phone and began to search. "Hemophilia is a group of bleeding disorders with hereditary coagulation disorders, which are characterized by impaired active thromboplastin production, prolonged coagulation time, lifelong bleeding tendency after minor trauma, and "spontaneous" bleeding in severe patients without obvious trauma. ”

"That means that even if there is a small wound on the body, it will not stop bleeding. Even some severe cases can bleed spontaneously even if the skin is not cut. Zeppelin's hand trembling as he pressed the screen of his mobile phone, and the feeling of heartache spread to every corner of his body, "Why should such a beautiful young life be tormented by such a painful disease." ”

Zeppelin thought that Tang Wan'er had mentioned to him before that her mother didn't let her learn the guitar, probably because she was afraid that she would cut herself. The sharp strings of the guitar still pose a risk of injury to the immature hands. Although the nylon strings of a classical guitar are much gentler than the steel strings, there is also a risk of injury. Zeppelin felt remorse for the last time he recklessly let Tang Wan'er play the piano, but fortunately nothing happened, otherwise he would have blamed himself for the rest of his life.

Tang Feng prepared a table of sumptuous dishes, but Zeppelin had no intention of eating, and he even forgot that the purpose of his visit was to ask Tang Feng for experience in playing the electric guitar and performing on stage. He was preoccupied with Tang Wan'er's every move, worried that she would be hurt by the tableware on the table.

Tang Wan'er also noticed his special concern. After Zeppelin carefully handed her the soup, she left the table angrily, "You don't always think of me as a patient, okay?" Mom, it's the first time someone has come to the house as a guest, why are you telling him so much! ”

After speaking, Tang Wan'er locked herself in the room. Zeppelin was the first person she met who would let her play the guitar, but in the future, like everyone else, he would prevent her from touching anything dangerous. Even though, those things are obviously so beautiful.

Tang Wan'er took out the photo of her locked in a drawer, which was taken by the young Tang Feng when she was performing on stage, and her father's high-spirited appearance on the stage made her yearn for it, but since she was born, she was destined not to have such an opportunity.

Sadness came to her heart again, and Tang Wan'er hugged the pillow and cried.

Mrs. Tang wandered around the door apologetically pushing her wheelchair, but she didn't dare to knock. I can only do it in a hurry. Tang Feng stepped forward to comfort his wife, but got a merciless "roll" word, "It's all your fault!" ”

Tang Feng didn't refute, just put on his coat and went out. Zeppelin unconsciously followed him closely.

"Teacher Tang!"

"Don't call me teacher. I've never been someone else's teacher, so let's call me uncle. ”

"Uncle Tang."

They walked along the bustling Bund, and all kinds of high-rise buildings came into view. Tourists from all over the country rush here to take photos.

Tang Feng turned a blind eye to everything here, "I don't like these reinforced concrete at all, I choose to settle here, it will be more convenient for Wan'er to see a doctor." He lamented.

"Why did she get such a disease?" Zeppelin asked.

"Didn't her mother say that? It's all my fault. ”

"When my mother was pregnant, I only cared about drinking and playing the piano, and I didn't take care of them. At that time, the tumbling had just been disbanded, and Qu Ling died again. I said goodbye to Liu Qingyuan, and my parents went on a blind date for me, which was Wan'er's mother. I married her and had children. But I still dwell on the past, and I didn't do my father's duty to this family at all. Even when she gave birth, she was very drunk. ”

"It wasn't until Wan'er was diagnosed with this disease by the doctor that I woke up. I started taking good care of their mother and daughter, and after her mother was paralyzed, I even spent all my time at home. In this way, sixteen years have passed. ”

Listening to Tang Feng talk about the past, Zeppelin's heart also gave birth to infinite emotion, to let a person who regards the guitar as his life give up the career he loves, there is only family affection.

"You're playing well right now!" Tang Feng changed the subject.

"Uncle, how do you know?"

"The last time Wan'er went to the concert hall to watch you perform, I accompanied her. I sat in the last row. Tang Feng said.

"Actually, there's still a lot of room for improvement." Zeppelin said.

"Wan'er likes you very much." Tang Feng said without reservation, "She also likes to play the guitar and play music. But when she was a child, her hand was cut by a string and she bled profusely, and her mother wouldn't let her touch the guitar again. Otherwise, my daughter, her current level would not be worse than yours. ”

"Of course!" Zeppelin nodded earnestly.

"Do you have any plans for the future? Whether to go to the academy, or to continue to rock 'n' roll. How's your band, that kid surnamed Lin is quite talented. ”

Zeppelin regretfully told him that the band had disbanded. "I didn't expect it to dissolve so quickly." This was the first time that Zeppelin expressed his regret for the band's disbandment in front of others.

"Life. Isn't it just gathering and dispersing. Sometimes, even relatives will leave us, not to mention a band of people who are not related by blood. ”

"Actually, I still like to perform in bands. I just want to learn more about music and performance, and I can make my own music when I have the opportunity in the future! ”

"Hmm!" Tang Feng nodded. "If there's an uncle who can help you, just ask. Although I am no longer in the music industry, I still know some old friends! ”

"Thank you, uncle!" Zeppelin hurriedly thanked him.

"But Uncle has something I want to entrust to you, I hope you can also help Uncle!"

"Is it about Wan'er?"

Tang Feng nodded, "Wan'er has liked music since she was a child, and I can see that she has inherited my talent, but her illness is ...... Eh, it's all fate. But although she doesn't have the opportunity to play on stage, she can still be an excellent audience. Music still brings her joy! I just want her to have a happy life. ”

"Hmm. Is there anything I can do about that? ”

"Aren't you in the conservatory right now? If you have time, take her to see more, let her see more of your classmates' daily rehearsals, and take her to listen to the class when she is in class. ”

"Is that all?"

"Of course. This is already the most happy thing for her. We're also from out of town, and we don't have any friends here. Hopefully, you can take care of her like a friend. ”

"Hmmm! What I promised Zeppelin will be done! ”
