Chapter 4: The Uncle's Family
Three days later.
Xu Linfei's role was officially completed.
Ji Zhen and Xu Linfei attended the finale banquet held by director Zhuang Yan together, and then they were ready to go north and go home.
"What's wrong?"
Ji Zhen saw Xu Linfei answer a phone call, with a helpless look on his face, and immediately asked.
Xu Linfei hung up the phone and wrapped her arms around Ji Zhen's arm, "Do you still have a holiday?" β
Ji Zhen nodded, "There are still two days, what's wrong?" β
"Come with me to Shanghai, right?"
Ji Zhen didn't ask why, just nodded and said with a smile: "You can go anywhere with your wife." β
"That's good." Xu Linfei gave Ji Zhen a kiss.
Then, she began to take the initiative to talk about the content of the phone.
"My dad called me and asked me to go to Shanghai to meet my uncle."
Ji Zhen wondered for a while, "Uncle, why haven't I heard you mention it?" β
Xu Linfei's expression showed a look of reminiscence, "That was when I was a child, and then my uncle and my father had a conflict, and they moved to Shanghai in a fit of anger." β
"I haven't been in touch for more than a decade."
I haven't been in contact for more than ten years, and when I think about it this way, the contradictions and conflicts are very strong.
"Now your dad wants to open it?"
Xu Linfei nodded, "I heard that my uncle's family's business went bankrupt, and even his body was seriously ill and paralyzed. My cousin didn't go to college, and my aunt was also depressed and hospitalized. β
Ay!
Speaking of this, Xu Linfei also sighed.
It happened so suddenly, it was completely unprepared, and she couldn't help but feel sad when she thought of it.
I remember that when I was a child, my uncle and aunt liked me very much, and they always brought a lot of gifts when they came and went.
"Then we must take a good look, this past grudge, to this extent, should be resolved."
Xu Linfei nodded, "My dad is going to come from Kyoto to stay for a long time and accompany my uncle." β
Xu Linfei took Ji Zhen to Shanghai by plane.
As soon as I landed in Shanghai, I went straight to the hospital to buy things, and my uncle Xu Ruiyang and aunt Meijuan lived in the same hospital.
Xu Linfei had already learned from her father about the location of the hospitalization.
It's just that when Xu Linfei and Ji Zhen came to Xu Ruiyang's bed, they didn't see their cousin.
With the current family situation, the cousin should be by the side of the parents.
"Uncle, I've come to see you."
Xu Linfei took Ji Zhen to the bed, she looked at Xu Ruiyang who was paralyzed on the hospital bed, and said softly.
Ji Zhen put the flowers, fruits and other items away, and then accompanied Xu Linfei.
"It's Fei Fei!"
When Xu Ruiyang saw Xu Linfei, there was no unfamiliarity in his eyes, and he recognized him at a glance.
"I haven't seen each other for eighteen years, Fei Fei is getting more and more beautiful."
Xu Ruiyang's voice sounded heavy, and his voice was a little sickly hoarse. When he spoke, he was even more breathless and unsmooth.
He dragged his hand and wanted to touch Xu Linfei, but his strength couldn't be transferred and he couldn't raise his hand.
Xu Linfei took the initiative to reach out and held her hands tightly.
"Who is this? Don't you say to introduce to your uncle? β
Xu Ruiyang looked at Ji Zhen who was standing next to Xu Linfei, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, and there was a little smile in his tone.
"Hello, uncle, my name is Ji Zhen, and I am Fei Fei's fiancΓ©."
Ji Allah stepped forward, sat on the edge of the bed, and said.
"Good, good, good!" Xu Ruiyang said three good words, seemed to exert his strength, and coughed vigorously.
Xu Linfei hurriedly reached out and stroked the other party's chest, smoothing out the rhythm of breathing.
"Say no more, uncle."
Xu Ruiyang shook his head, "Fei Fei has found a good boy!" β
As he spoke, he turned to Ji Zhen again, "Fei Fei is a good girl, you have to treat her well." β
Ji Zhen leaned closer and gave the other party a warm smile, "I will treat Fei Fei well." β
Xu Linfei and Xu Ruiyang chatted slowly, telling about the things they had when they were young, and recalling the beauty of their youth.
"Where's my brother?"
After chatting for half an hour, there was no cousin, only the nurse cleaned up. Xu Linfei couldn't help asking.
"Now the family is in difficulty, and the burden of the family is on him. Hey, he's going out to work and making money! β
Speaking of this, Xu Ruiyang did not shy away from it, and his eyes showed pity for his son.
When Xu Linfei heard this, she didn't say anything, but she had already decided to pull her cousin back.
His father is ready to intervene, and the two sides are reconciled, and there is no need to worry about this money issue.
And what uncles and aunts need most is not anything else, but the company of their children.
Β·Β·Β·
Xu Linfei and Ji Zhen came to an old building next to a Sanben University after several turnarounds. She's here to find her cousin.
According to my cousin's classmates, although my cousin did not continue to go to college, he still had a student status and did not take a break from school, but only skipped class.
All the time is spent part-time or borrowing money.
And one of the old buildings is the house he rents. The school dormitory is still a little inconvenient, especially when you work part-time to do some different jobs.
"Is this it?"
The old building has no stairs and has a total of six floors.
Ji Zhen and Xu Linfei came to the fifth floor, the innermost room.
"It should be here."
Xu Linfei glanced at the address saved on her phone and said.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Xu Linfei knocked on the door, and the wooden door made a dull noise.
"Who?"
It's just that the male voice that came out of the room was not my cousin's voice, but a slightly crisp girl, judging from the voice, she shouldn't be very old.
Ji Zhen's eyes rolled, as if asking, "Are you sure it's here?" β
Xu Linfei accepted the information, confirmed the address again, looked at the door number next to the house, and nodded, "It's here, that's right." β
Click!
The door was opened, but only the inner door was opened, and the outer iron gate was not opened.
A young little face, a girl's face, was revealed.
Xu Linfei is also a little confused, the girl is very good-looking, and her temperament is good, just like the little sister next door, and there is still childishness on her face that has not fallen off.
The girl looked at Xu Linfei and Ji Zhen who were standing outside the door, and was also very puzzled, and asked, "Who are you looking for?" β
Xu Linfei didn't answer the question, but asked, "This is not Xu Yi's home?" β
"Who are you? Why are you looking for Xu Yi? β
As soon as the girl's words came out, Xu Linfei immediately understood that this was indeed Xu Yi's home, but there seemed to be a person living here.
"I am Xu Yi's sister, and this is my fiancΓ©." Xu Linfei introduced, "Isn't Xu Yi at home? β
As soon as she heard that Xu Linfei claimed to be Xu Yi's sister, the girl hurriedly opened the iron gate and invited Xu Linfei and Ji Zhen in.
"He went to work." The girl looked at the time, "I'll be back in an hour." β
Ji Zhen entered the room and saw that although the room was small, it was well organized and very exquisite, and it was from the girl's hand at first glance.
Xu Linfei also looked around, did not dwell on these, but asked the girl, "Who are you?" β
"My name is Li Er, and I am Xu Yi's classmate."
