Chapter 42: The State of Chang'an
"How can it be me, it's almost half a month's salary for a day, and the second young master of the Mu family arranged it for you."
"Second Young Master of the Mu Family? Mu Qinchuan? Chang An said that she couldn't help but think of what happened before she fell unconscious, she seemed to hear the staff of the crematorium say her grandmother's name, and couldn't accept the fact that her grandmother really died for a while, and wanted to run to the incinerator to confirm the body, she remembered that she ran to the incinerator, but she didn't remember whether she ran to the place.
Presumably not, there was still a fire in the incinerator at that time, even if Mu Qinchuan didn't stop her, the staff wouldn't let her mess around, Chang An suddenly felt a headache again, and his ears began to buzz.
Since she didn't look up, Xia Qiyue didn't notice her abnormality, and took her words and said: "That's right, it's him, your brother-in-law is really good to you, he stayed by your side before I came back, and he didn't leave until I came back, as if he left because he couldn't continue to drag on at work." β
"Really?" Chang An responded lightly, and did not express his stance on Mu Qinchuan's matter, but asked casually: "When did you come back?" β
Xia Qiyue was successfully diverted from the topic, and hung his head a little ashamedly: "I'm sorry, An An, I didn't know that such a big thing happened, and I didn't come back until yesterday." β
That is, the day after she fell unconscious.
Chang An raised his eyes to look at her, and joked with a smile: "What's so sorry about this, I've only been in a coma for a few days, why are you all scrambling to say sorry to me one by one, what is sorry for me." β
Speaking of... It seems that this is indeed the case, Xia Qiyue scratched his head a little embarrassed: "Anyway, I'm sorry." β
"Okay, I'll take your excuses." Chang An got up and put the bowl in his hand on the bed table: "I really can't eat, let's pack up and go home." β
Xia Qiyue got up and looked at the porridge bowl, and found that there was still half a bowl of porridge left, frowned and said, "You just eat more, eat more, and drink this bowl anyway." β
"I really can't eat it, and you don't know how much I eat." Chang An walked to the sofa as he spoke, and Xia Qiyue followed along: "It's because I know your appetite that I think you eat too little, so you can eat more." β
"Spare me, I really can't eat it." Chang An picked up the bag placed on the side of the sofa, opened it and checked the contents inside, and after finding that there was nothing missing, he closed the zipper again, and his eyes fell on the ceramic jar under the coffee table, only to feel another colic in his heart.
"Well, I can't handle you like this." Xia Qiyue sighed lightly, followed Chang An's gaze and saw something under the coffee table, his heart couldn't help but 'chuckle', and raised his eyes to observe Chang An's expression.
Although Chang An's face was still very pale, he had a smile on his face: "Who are you asking for?" Could it be that the company has finally begun to pay attention to me, so that you must take care of me, and have the strength to grow into a cash cow for the company in the future? β
Seeing that she also took the initiative to adjust the atmosphere, Xia Qiyue's tense nerves also relaxed, rolled her eyes and said: "How is it possible, it's Mu Qinchuan, otherwise how can I say that he is really good to you, before leaving, don't forget to tell me, if you wake up, you must pay attention to your healthy diet, even if you say you can't eat, I will force you to eat, at this time, you can't let you be willful." β
Chang An: "......"
"Chang An, what's the situation with you?" Xia Qiyue looked at her, her face was full of curiosity: "If I didn't know that he was your sister's fiancΓ©, I would have thought that the person he was going to marry was you, if you really have any circumstances, don't hide it from me, I have the right to know these things in addition to being your friend or your agent." β
"You're thinking too much, I don't even know what's going on." Chang An sighed helplessly, and felt in her heart that the man's concern for her did seem to be beyond the scope of what she should have, but she couldn't figure out why, and she didn't have the mood to think about it at this time.
She stared at the blue and white porcelain jar, and the look on her face was a little heavy.
Xia Qiyue scratched his head in confusion: "Don't lie to me, he has called me from time to time since he left yesterday to ask about your situation, just like him, I really can't believe that you have no situation." β
"It's true, nothing." Chang An said as if he had finally made up his mind, squatted down and carefully moved the ceramic jar out, Xia Qiyue couldn't help but be stunned when he saw her movements, completely forgetting what he was going to say next.
Chang An held the ceramic jar in his arms, and was stunned for a long time before getting up and looking at Xia Qiyue, and said with a smile: "If he calls you again, you can just say that I am fine, and you don't need to do anything else with him." β
When she spoke, her hand carefully stroked the pattern on the jar, and her nose couldn't help but pantothenic, she felt her tears flowing down again, and hurriedly raised her hand to wipe it, but found that her eyes were dry, and there was not a single tear.
Her hand trembled a little stiffly, then put it down, hooked her lips and smiled bitterly: "Let's go, let's go home." β
After saying goodbye to Dr. Sun, Chang An and Xia Qiyue left the hospital, and when taking a taxi, Xia Qiyue subconsciously reported the dormitory provided by the company for her, but Chang An directly said that she would go to 'Shengli Village in the eastern suburbs'.
This is Grandma Chang's home, and it is normal for her to want to go back there at this time, but Xia Qiyue still can't help but worry that she is in that environment at this time, and I am afraid that she will fall into deeper sadness.
But even if she was worried, she didn't say much, and she really couldn't say anything to stop her at this time.
Half an hour later, the taxi stopped in Shengli Village, and as soon as he got off Xia Qiyue's mobile phone rang, Chang An got out of the car holding the ceramic jar and heard Xia Qiyue say: "Now?" Can it be later..."
It should be a call from someone from the company, Chang An was not interested in listening, and went back to his small yard with the jar.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, when my grandmother was hospitalized in the past, the two of them rarely went home, and the yard was often not taken care of once for a few months, but every time I came back, it felt no different from before.
But as soon as he stepped into the yard this time, Chang An felt a depression, whether it was the fruit trees in the yard or the grape trellis on the side, there was a lifeless smell, which made people feel inexplicably sad when they looked at it.
This feeling is even stronger when I push the door open and enter the house, looking at the dust falling on the bed, on the wardrobe, and on the mirror, I feel a chill from the bottom of my heart, as if I have walked into a decaying house that has been abandoned for decades.
Chang An shivered with cold, walked into the house, put the ceramic jar in her arms on the table, turned around and went into the kitchen to lead the stove, and after watching the fire in the stove ignite, she went to the outhouse to prepare water and rags and began to clean up the house.
When Xia Qiyue entered the door, he saw Chang An wiping the TV cabinet with a rag, and stepped forward to ask, "Do you need my help?" β
"No need." Chang An put down the work in his hand and turned to look at her: "The people from the company are looking for you to go back, right?" You don't have to stay here with me, go back to your work. β
"It's fine." Xia Qiyue said and began to roll up her sleeves and wanted to help her clean up together: "I have already told the manager that I will not return to the company today." β
"July." Chang An's expression suddenly became serious, and he looked at her very seriously: "You don't have to look like this, your appearance will put me under a lot of psychological pressure, I admit that I am not in a good state now, but I promise that I will regulate myself." β
She paused and took a deep breath before continuing: "You can rest assured, birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature, and everyone can't escape, I... I'm not going to be unable to think about it because of this, I'm going to come out slowly. β
Xia Qiyue's eyes were red at what she said, and she still said with some worry: "But..."
"There's nothing to do." Chang An interrupted her: "You just go and do your business, don't delay your work because I have delayed it, come over at any time if you want to play with me or go to the street when you have time, don't be afraid that I will be sad and stay with me." β
She said this very solemnly, Xia Qiyue seemed to understand her mood when she said this, hesitated for a moment and compromised again: "Okay, then I'll go back to the company first, and I'll eat something after you finish cleaning up, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it." β
Chang An nodded: "Don't worry, I won't let myself collapse." β
Even if she repeatedly assured that Xia Qiyue still couldn't really rest assured, she couldn't stay, and she left Grandma Chang's house after telling what she should be told.
As soon as she was discharged from the hospital, her mobile phone rang, she thought it was someone from the company, but when she took it out and looked at it, she found that it was Mu Qinchuan, obviously when Chang An just woke up an hour ago, they were on the phone, how long has it been, he called again, such a caring person, who would believe it if he was not tired?
Chang An's girl had to say no, Xia Qiyue pursed her lips, or slid down the screen to answer: "Hey? β
The other party asked directly: "How is the situation in Chang'an?" β
"It's okay." Xia Qiyue briefly told Chang An about the situation, and also repeated what Chang An had just said to persuade her to leave, and asked with some worry after speaking: "Is it really okay for me to leave like this?" β
"Since she said that, you can trust her." Mu Qinchuan's voice sounded exceptionally calm, making people feel inexplicably relieved, Xia Qiyue nodded, a little relieved, and heard the other party continue to ask: "Regarding Yang Feifei's deliberate suppression of Chang An, have you mentioned it to the people in your company?" β
"I mentioned it." Xia Qiyue was furious when he talked about this: "But our manager said that this matter is not to be taken care of, saying that Yang Feifei is a backstage person, it is not worth it to provoke her for the sake of an eighteenth line, and if you want to give up Chang'an, I am really angry." β
