Chapter 135: The Herringbone on the Sheets
Although Hao's father's body has been transported to the funeral home! However, everything else in the master bedroom remained intact. Including the bed where Hao's father lay down.
Although she knew that it was her father, compared to the fear she had before she came in, Hao Lili felt that her mood was much calmer!
But when she saw the brownish chevron on the whitewashed sheets, she was so frightened that she immediately took two steps back! Tu Cheng stretched out his hand to help her, and instantly understood what was going on. Tu Cheng's gaze immediately fell on the brownish herringbone.
It's just that this is the first time he has seen such a shocking scene! Just when he saw the brown herringbone shape on the bed sheet, he was still so frightened that cold sweat was all over his spine! It's just that he didn't show it!
Hao Lili didn't dare to imagine the scene of her father lying on the bed after his death. I dare not imagine the helplessness and pain of my father before his death. She walked to the balcony in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the master bedroom and looked up to see her father's cleaned clothes still hanging on the hanger. With the breeze blowing in from the window, it constantly swayed back and forth in the air.
At this time, Qin Yang noticed that this master bedroom actually had floor-to-ceiling windows and balconies.
Yesterday, she almost glanced at the bed, and then she was so frightened that her mind went blank and she exited the master bedroom.
The three exited the master bedroom and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Qin Yang and Tu Cheng glanced at each other, as if they were waiting for Hao Lili's orders. In the end, Qin Yang opened his mouth: "Your relatives have been notified, right?" ”
"I notified my aunt's house, and you heard it on the phone, they can't come!" Hao Lili let out a long sigh.
"What about your uncle's house? You don't seem to be calling! Qin Yang continued to ask.
"Since my mother is gone, I haven't been in touch for more than ten years, so there's no need to notify!" Hao Lili exhaled tiredly again.
Tu Cheng, who had not spoken, walked to the balcony, picked up a broom and dustpan, and began to clean up the wine bottles and other garbage in the living room little by little.
Hao Lili took out her phone and started texting.
"You two go with me to my bedroom!"
Qin Yang and Tu Cheng put down the broom and mop in their hands and followed Hao Lili to the second bedroom together!
Everything in the second bedroom was as if someone had lived there yesterday, almost spotlessly cleaned, and the quilt was folded into boxy tofu cubes. The comb and round mirror on the dresser do not leave a trace of dust.
"It's all made by my dad, and I've never been in the habit of folding quilts." Hao Lili said silently and sat down in front of the dresser.
Tu Cheng and Qin Yang didn't answer! I just found a place and sat on the edge of the bed!
At this moment, Hao Lili suddenly stood up from the dresser and reached out to open the window of the second bedroom!
"What are you going to do?" Tu Cheng quickly grabbed Hao Lili's arm and shouted loudly! He thought that Hao Lili couldn't figure it out and was ready to find a short view.
"I just want to open the window to breathe!" Hao Lili's hand that was about to open the window was still hanging in mid-air.
"Let me come, Tu Cheng is still a little uneasy
of the Tao. With that, he stood up and opened the window to a slanted opening of less than 20 hours.
Hao Lili may have seen what he was thinking, so she said, "Ah Cheng, don't worry, I won't think about it!" I understand that only being strong and living is the best consolation for my father. ”
After speaking, Hao Lili casually opened the drawer under the dresser and took out a notebook.
Tu Cheng and Qin Yang didn't understand what she was going to do, and it wasn't until Hao Lili dialed the first phone call above that Qin Yang understood that this was her high school graduation guestbook.
It turned out that Hao Lili was going to call her classmates to attend her father's funeral.
At this moment, Qin Yang wanted to ask if he needed to avoid it. However, in such a house, not to mention that someone had just died in the next room, and the body had just been transported away last night! The fear in her heart was something that no one could understand.
So, she had to turn her face sideways, press the phone screen, and pretend to be looking at the phone.
However, at that time, mobile phones had made great progress compared to earlier times. Unfortunately, the biggest feature is just calling or texting!
The only internet speed is only stuck on a 2G or 3G network. If you want to talk about surfing the Internet, the most you can do is to chat about QQ, and when you receive a message, the penguin avatar needs to shake for a long time.
I don't know how long it took, Hao Lili could almost be regarded as calling all the phones in the guest book.
It's getting dark outside, and it's already evening! Tu Cheng stood up and turned on the light!
The light from the tubes of the fluorescent lamps illuminates the entire small second bedroom as bright as day.
"There were 12 classmates in total, and they promised to attend my dad's funeral at the front desk the day after tomorrow." Hao Lili muttered to herself.
Then, she stood up and opened the closet. The wardrobe is neatly placed with more than a dozen of Hao Lili's few clothes! There was a subtle scent of gardenia wafting from inside.
Hao Lili took out a set of dark black sportswear and placed it on the bed.
"Ah Cheng, please wait for us at the door, Yangyang will accompany me to change clothes." Hao Lili said.
Although, the relationship between her and Tu Cheng has long surpassed the relationship in the early stages of their relationship. Each has long regarded each other as a part of their lives.
However, perhaps, women are the ones who know women better! It's just that it's not good to let your fiancé and another girl watch you change clothes at the same time.
Therefore, after only thinking about it in her head for a few seconds, she decided to let her fiancé Tu Cheng wait outside the door.
"Well, I'll go out and clean up the living room first." With that, Tu Cheng stood up and walked out of the second bedroom. This was followed by the familiar sound of brooms and dustpans coming into contact with the floor.
"I'd better change my old clothes, so as not to be gossiped about." Hao Lili said to Qin Yang while changing her clothes.
"Do you want me to clean up your dresser?" Qin Yang took his eyes off the screen of his phone and stood up.
"Well, yes, put all my makeup and brightly colored objects in it
In the drawer! ”
Hao Lili changed into black sportswear after dividing five by two.
She glanced at the pink sheets on her bed, which were still brand new, and the neat mass of "tofu block" quilt.
At this time, a large red peony flower is blooming on the tofu block.
Hao Lili immediately began to look in the closet for plain or old sheets or duvet covers!
However, she found that she didn't have either of these things in her closet, not even a new one.
"Let's go, come with me to the next room."
Hearing Hao Lili say this, Qin Yang immediately understood her intentions. As soon as he thought of the brownish chevron on the bed sheets in the master bedroom, Qin Yang's heart shuddered.
However, at this moment, she didn't think about it, so she followed Hao Lili into the master bedroom again.
However, Qin Yang noticed that it wasn't just she who felt fear. In fact, even when Hao Lili herself was rummaging through the sheets and quilt covers in her father's closet, she kept her back to the bed, trying to keep her eyes from falling on the place where her father was lying down.
However, what Hao Lili didn't expect was that there were only five or six sets of clothes in her father's wardrobe, and there was nothing else. Even the only three pairs of socks had holes in the toes. Not to mention anything like a sheet or a bed cover.
Suddenly, tears blurred Hao Lili's eyes again!
After looking for bed sheets and bed covers in her father's wardrobe to no avail, Hao Lili stood up and walked out of the master bedroom, and walked into the second bedroom again, Qin Yang followed behind her.
Hao Lili took off the sheets and quilt covers, folded them neatly and put them in the cabinet!
"Now it's okay!" After doing this, she turned her face and said to Qin Yang as if she had completed a big thing.
When the two of them came out of the second bedroom, Tu Cheng had already cleaned up the living room! It was already dusk outside, and Hao Lili remembered that the three of them hadn't eaten all day.
"Let's go downstairs and have some dinner first!" Although for her, there is no appetite at all! But after all, people are iron and steel, her father is gone, and she needs to deal with the rest of the things herself!
Except for Tu Cheng, she realized that she was really the only one left in this world.
Similarly, she wanted to minimize the negative impact of losing her lover to the other two people, especially Qin Yang.
Tu Cheng packed all kinds of large and small wine bottles in the living room, and filled a total of two bags of hemp!
When the three of them went downstairs to eat, Tu Cheng carried the larger bag alone, and the smaller bag Qin Yang and Hao Lili moved down together.
When the three of them sat down at the restaurant in front of the door, it was already completely dark! The street lights on the streets are already on.
Hao Lili asked Tu Cheng and Qin Yang what they wanted to eat, and both of them shook their heads and said whatever they wanted. And she herself has no appetite at all!
In fact, Qin Yang is not? Since the day before the fight, she saw Hao's father lying on the bed, and then to the brown herringbone on the bed sheet in the back! Qin Yang's mind was in his mind for a long time
Switching back and forth between these two images. For at least nearly a month, she didn't dare to turn off the lights all night.
"You have to eat some, otherwise your body won't be able to stand it!" Seeing that the waiters in the restaurant served the dishes one after another, Hao Lili had not moved her chopsticks for a long time, and Tu Cheng persuaded her!
"I'll eat it!"
At this time, Qin Yang picked up the soup spoon and added soup to the rice. "Anyway, eat a little more!" Qin Yang also encouraged.
Hao Lili picked up the soup spoon and reluctantly added three spoonfuls of soup to her rice bowl! I ate a small half bowl of rice with a stiff neck like swallowing brown rice bran.
Tu Cheng is not much better, it is also a small half bowl of rice, and he has not added anything else.
During the whole meal, Hao Lili ordered two meats, one vegetable and one soup, and the three of them almost didn't use chopsticks. The meal was hastily eaten!
"Are you all full?" Seeing that Qin Yang and Tu Cheng both rested their chopsticks on the bowl, Hao Lili asked!
Neither of them spoke, this is a nod, Hao Lili stood up and walked to the checkout counter of the restaurant!
I don't know when it started, but it was raining lightly outside.
