Chapter Ninety-Nine: Raising Dead
"Okay, but there are no materials at home, you can accompany me to the supermarket on Sunday." The time for Meng Jiayue to say this had already arrived, and the rain in the sky had already stopped, and he didn't have an umbrella, but when he turned the green belt, he saw Ruan Yu, he hung up his phone and waved at her.
Ruan Yu immediately ran over and said happily, "Okay, okay!" Do it on Sundays. ”
"Okay." Meng Jiayue responded, wanting to raise his hand to touch Ruan Yu's cheek, but considering that there were still classmates passing by, he couldn't help but not move.
"Then hurry up and eat now! I feel hungrier when I think about "A Bite of the Tongue". Ruan Yu grabbed Meng Jiayue's clothes and said pitifully.
Meng Jiayue suddenly felt distressed, and immediately took her to the school gate, and said as she walked: "Have a good meal, don't wait for me so stupidly next time." ”
"Hmm." Ruan Yu replied wistfully, pouting a little unhappy, not because of Meng Jiayue, but because her stomach hurt so much that she didn't want to walk, but there was no way to let Meng Jiayue carry her on her back at school.
Thinking about something else, Ruan Yu didn't look at the road, and accidentally stepped on a small puddle, and the toe of the white sneakers on her feet was immediately dirty, Ruan Yu looked down and said in a daze: "It's dirty." ”
"I'll see." Meng Jiayue took out a pack of toilet paper from his pocket and squatted down to polish her shoes, but the white shoes were too easy to get dirty, so he wiped off the water, but there was still a gray mark on the toe of the shoe.
"It's okay, it doesn't affect the overall look, I'll brush your shoes when I go back." Meng Jiayue got up and put the unused handkerchief back into his pocket.
Ruan Yu nodded, although she still minded the stain on the toe of her shoes a little, but she didn't show it, and obediently went out to eat with Meng Jiayue. It's just that the time is really not enough, and by the time she returns to the classroom after eating, it is nearly 1:20, and the classmates have basically arrived.
The atmosphere was so quiet that Ruan Yu didn't dare to look around, and returned to her seat with her head down before she breathed a sigh of relief. The team leader was already asleep on the table, Ruan Yu looked back, and saw that Shui Miao was doing her homework, so she simply lay down to sleep.
Today is already Thursday, and it will be a week until tomorrow afternoon, Ruan Yu was thinking about where to buy materials to make yellow buns on Sunday, when she suddenly felt an itchy nose, she hurriedly sat up and covered her nose, and sneezed three times in a row before stopping.
After sneezing, Ruan Yu turned her head to look into the classroom, and when she saw that no one noticed her, she put her mind at ease, and reached out to touch the toilet paper to wipe her nose, but she touched it empty. Usually she uses toilet paper directly from Meng Jiayue, and she really doesn't have the habit of bringing toilet paper.
"Shui Miao." Ruan Yu turned her head and whispered to Shui Miao: "Do you have any toilet paper?" ”
Shui Miao dug through the hole in the table, took out a pack of toilet paper and put it on the textbook, Ruan Yu took one and turned around and continued to lie down to sleep.
By the end of school on Friday afternoon, Ruan Yu already clearly felt that something was wrong with her, not to mention the chills all over her body, her body was still very hot, and her eyelids were sore and painful, and she couldn't open them.
Ruan Yu knew that she must be sick, so when she saw Meng Jiayue, she directly told him: "I seem to have a fever." ”
Meng Jiayue raised his hand to test the temperature of her forehead, and did not leave the school gate, and took her directly to the school infirmary. After measuring the temperature, I realized that I had a fever of more than thirty-nine degrees, so the female doctor in the infirmary directly asked Ruan Yu to stay and hang the water.
The students who could go home in the school after school on Friday had already gone home, so there were not many people in the infirmary, and there were still two students in the infusion room before Ruan Yu hung the water, and when they were halfway through, the two students also left, and there was no one in the house.
In November, it gets dark fast, and the sun begins to set after half past five, but when it is not yet dark, the afterglow of the sunset shines in from the door, reflecting the dust in the air clearly, and the outside is so quiet that there is no sound.
Ruan Yu hung on the hanging water and was cold, so he put a hand in the sleeve of Meng Jiayue's clothes to keep warm, and his head rested on his shoulder, squinting his eyes and wanting to sleep.
"How long will it take?" Ruan Yu was so sleepy that she yawned.
"It's almost there, there's still a small half bottle, and it's almost up to six o'clock." Meng Jiayue touched her forehead, and took out a piece of toffee from his pocket to feed her.
It's a pity that even the taste is not right when I am sick, and the milk candy is not delicious in my mouth, Ruan Yu hurriedly chewed the sugar and swallowed it, and said unhappily: "It's not delicious, the taste is not right." ”
Meng Jiayue smiled: "Don't eat it, I'll eat it when I'm well." ”
Ruan Yu chirped again: "Boring." ”
"What about watching cartoons?"
Ruan Yu shook her head, she was so sleepy now, but she couldn't sleep, so she couldn't watch cartoons.
"Well, wait, it's almost ready." Meng Jiayue rubbed her head and whispered comfort.
"Okay." Ruan Yu replied softly, and then she stared at the hanging water bottle with her head tilted her head boredly, and saw that the potion was falling drop by drop, and she didn't know when it would be finished.
Meng Jiayue turned her head over, Ruan Yu didn't stare at the hanging water bottle, but instead looked at the shoe prints on the floor that I don't know who stepped on, observed the shape of the sole, and then guessed what size of shoes it was based on size.
Seeing this, Ruan Yu made a discovery, pointed to the shoe print, turned his head and said to Meng Jiayue: "Meng Jiayue, this shoe print is the same size as what you are wearing." ”
"Other people's shoe prints are nothing to look at." Meng Jiayue pressed Ruan Yu's head and let her look at her.
Ruan Yu stuck out her tongue at him, and after a while, she cried and said with a sad face: "I want to go to the toilet." She had already hung up at least a bottle and a half of the potion, and she had been sitting in the infusion room for nearly an hour, feeling like her bladder couldn't hold it.
Meng Jiayue looked at the hanging water, and there was no choice but to comfort her as much as possible: "Be good, wait a little longer and it will be over." ”
Ruan Yu pouted and was unhappy, and the time seemed to have become very long, and finally boiled until there was still a little left in the potion, and before the potion was hung up, Meng Jiayue got up and went outside to call the doctor, and pulled out the needle.
Ruan Yu couldn't hold back anymore at this time, so she rushed out of the infirmary and went straight to the nearest teaching building, and when Meng Jiayue came out with a bag of medicine, she had just finished going to the toilet.
When she got home, Ruan Yu was already too tired, so she pulled the quilt and covered her head and fell asleep on the bed first, Meng Jiayue took off her clothes and shoes, stuffed her feet into the quilt, and then went to the kitchen to make dinner.
It was already getting dark outside, and when Meng Jiayue came out of cooking, Ruan Yu hadn't woken up yet, he sat on the edge of the bed and waited for a while before waking her up.
After eating, Ruan Yu couldn't sleep for a while, so she ran to the balcony to see the plants she raised, which were basically succulent, and they were raised in ceramic pots that were only the size of her fist, and there were many types, but Ruan Yu liked cactus balls, and she raised three pots, which was the most among all plants.
These succulents are placed on the balcony on the top two layers of the folding wooden trellises, arranged neatly, because the size of each layer of the trellis is different, and the bottom layer of the trellis has the largest space, so the last layer is two pots of jasmine.
However, Ruan Yu doesn't raise jasmine, they are basically taken care of by Meng Jiayue.
Ruan Yu bent down to look at the succulent on the shelf, and when she looked over, she suddenly noticed that something was wrong with one of the cactus, she tried to touch its thorns, but when she touched it, it deflated.
Ruan Yu thought that he was trying too hard, so he hurriedly fiddled with the cactus, only to find that the entire cactus was rotten from the roots, and there was still a part of the cactus that was empty, so it was deflated when he touched it.
"Meng Jiayue." Ruan Yu turned her head in fright and shouted towards the kitchen.
"Well, what's wrong?" The sound of water in the kitchen stopped, and Meng Jiayue's voice rang out.
"The cactus ball is broken, and the roots are gone." Ruan Yu picked up the flower pot, held it in his hand and was about to go to the kitchen.
It happened that Meng Jiayue came out of the kitchen, he was just washing the dishes, his hands were still wet, and he shook the water droplets on his hands and walked over quickly. Ruan Yu also stopped and put the cactus ball back.
"Look." Ruan Yu stepped out of the way, turned on the balcony lamp and pointed at the cactus ball to show him.
Meng Jiayue only glanced at it and shook his head: "It's already dead, and it can't be saved." ”
"Huh?" Ruan Yu instantly lowered his head, and said with a look of loss: "I raised the cactus ball to death again, don't I have the talent to raise the cactus?" ”
"What talent does it take to raise a cactus?" Meng Jiayue touched Ruan Yu's face with a smile, but the water in his hands had not dried yet, leaving several watermarks on Ruan Yu's face.
"But he died again." Ruan Yu rested his head on Meng Jiayue's shoulder, and said in a sullen voice: "I can't even raise a plant as easy to feed as a cactus, it must be that I don't agree with Bazi." ”
Meng Jiayue shook his head and smiled: "Why is it that the eight characters don't match again?" ”
"It's just that the eight characters don't match!" Ruan Yu said unreasonably.
"Yes, yes, yes, the eight characters don't match." Meng Jiayue kissed her forehead and asked, "Then what are you going to do with this cactus?" Do you want to bury it? ”
As soon as she heard Meng Jiayue say the word bury, Ruan Yu felt embarrassed in her heart, which reminded her of learning Lin Daiyu to bury flowers in junior high school, and she was so ashamed that she felt that she was really a second in middle school at that time, and she was almost discovered by the security uncle at that time.
No, the more I think about it, the more embarrassing it becomes.
Ruan Yu covered her face and snorted, "No need, just do whatever you want!" ”
The more Meng Jia looked at her like this, he knew why, turned his head and smiled without saying much, he pulled Ruan Yu to the living room, turned on the TV and changed it to the news channel for her, and then went to deal with the cactus.
After watching the news for a while, Ruan Yu was attracted by the movement of the balcony, and couldn't help but go over and sit on the hanging chair to watch how Meng Jiayue handled the cactus.
He made it easy, he directly found a plastic bag, and then poured the cactus ball and the soil in the flower pot into the bag, and then wiped the flower pot with a rag and put it on the flower stand again, as for the plastic bag, he tied it up and put it in the corner of the wall for a while.
"What are you doing there?" Ruan Yu looked at the plastic bag and asked.
"Throw it out tomorrow." Meng Jiayue stood up and took off the latex gloves, and said, "It just so happens that you have to hang the water again tomorrow, and you will throw it together when you go downstairs." ”
Hearing this, Ruan Yu immediately wrinkled her face, she didn't want to hang up the water.
