Chapter 9 But I don't want you to be misunderstood

On Sunday morning, my dad and my mom went to the countryside to visit my grandparents, and I stayed home alone, still thinking about the incident that Lu Li misunderstood that I liked Chen Yao.

After a series of mental struggles, I finally made up my mind and ran to the 6th floor to ring the doorbell of Lu Li's house, but no one opened the door after waiting for a long time. I simply sat on the stairs and waited, and while I was almost asleep, my dad called me and asked me to buy some fruit to visit my cousin and her newborn baby at the city hospital.

I had to go back upstairs, hastily settle lunch, buy some fruit at the community supermarket, and then get on the bus to the first courtyard of the city.

When I arrived at my cousin's ward, I conveyed the blessings of my parents and left the ward after a few pleasantries with my aunt and uncle.

Because it was the weekend, there were so many people coming to see the patients, and the elevator couldn't get in, so I had to look for the exit of the stairs. I followed the exit sign on the huge floor, and when I passed through a ward, I suddenly heard a beautiful piano sound from inside, and I couldn't help but stop and listen, and the more I listened, the more familiar I felt this piece, as if I had heard it somewhere.

Just as I was trying to remember, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, the door of the ward was opened with a "bang", and Lu Li walked out with a kettle. I didn't expect to meet Lu Li here, and my mouth opened wide in surprise.

"Your mouth is so wide that your saliva is coming out." Lu Li leaned against the door and looked at me with disgust.

I hurriedly wiped the corners of my mouth with my hand, and found that there was no saliva, Lu Li, this guy was playing with me, but I still swallowed my saliva and asked, "Lu Li, why are you here?" Is it also to visit the patient? ”

"Well, I'm coming to see my grandma." Lu Li gently shook the kettle in his hand and motioned for me to give way.

At this time, Grandma Lu Li's faint voice came from the ward, "Kitten, who is here?" ”

"My classmate." Lu Li replied in the room.

"Let your classmates in, why do you let people stand at the door!"

Lu Li turned sideways and waved his hand at me, "Go in, I'll go fetch water." ”

When I walked into the ward, Lu Li's grandmother was sitting on the hospital bed, her hair was gray, she looked thin and haggard because of her illness, but when she saw me, she still smiled and waved to me and asked me to sit on the edge of the bed.

I sat down and greeted obediently, "Hello, grandma, I am Lu Li's tablemate, my name is Ye Zhenzhen." ”

"Good boy, you came to the hospital today because someone in the family is sick?"

"My cousin gave birth to a baby today, and I came to visit my parents."

"That's a good thing," Grandma smiled weakly, "Did Lu Li cause you trouble at school?" ”

"No, no, Lu Li's performance in school is very good, and his academic performance is also very good." I hurriedly waved my hand so that my grandmother would not worry.

"This child grew up with me since he was a child, and I was not in good health for half a year, so he got up early every morning to bring me breakfast, and came to the hospital to accompany me after school, sometimes staying for one night. My hands and feet are often paralyzed, Lu Li bought books and learned massage by himself, and massaged me every night. He had a very good score in the high school entrance examination, and he could have gone to No. 1 Middle School, but because No. 1 Middle School required accommodation, he was worried that he would not be able to take care of me, so he secretly changed his volunteer without telling his family, and accompanied me to study high school textbooks by himself during the summer vacation. It was I, the old man, who delayed him. After saying that, Grandma sighed softly.

I was stunned, it turned out that Lu Li lived such a life every day. He spends most of his day sleeping not because he is snooze, but because he is sleep-deprived because he is taking care of his grandmother. He didn't participate in evening self-study not because he was good at studying, but because he went to the hospital to accompany his grandmother non-stop after class. His good grades are also the result of his hard work in advance and self-study.

Grandma pointed to a blue Walkman on the table and continued, "You see this kid was afraid that I would be bored in the hospital, so he went to school to record piano music for me. ”

Only then did I remember that the familiar piano music just now was the one that Lu Li played in the music classroom before, and it turned out that he was recording a tune for his sick grandmother with this blue walkman.

"Grandma, this piece was played by Lu Li at our school party, it is very good."

"Really? The kitten never said that to me. Kitten has loved to play the piano since he was a child, and he is very talented, and when he was young, he told us that he wanted to be a pianist when he grew up. But his father wanted him to study medicine and refused to let him spend too much time on the piano, for fear that he would delay his studies and rarely play the piano after he entered junior high school. But I know he still loves to play the piano. Grandma reached out and patted the back of my hand gently, "Good boy, can you do grandma a favor?" ”

"Grandma, you say."

Lu Li was a likable child when he was a child, he loved to laugh and talk, since his parents divorced, his father was not by his side all the year round, he became less and less talkative, everything was put in his heart, and he didn't like to get along with people. My body is getting worse day by day, and I don't have much time to spend with him, you are a good boy, I hope you can help Lu Li and make him a warm and happy person. ”

My eyes were a little moist, and my heart was moved, and I immediately held my grandmother's hand and nodded, "Grandma, don't worry." I'm a well-known little sun full of energy, and I'm sure I'll make Lu Li warm and sunny too. ”

Grandma said "yes" a few times in a row, and when she smiled, her eyes were like two crooked crescents, just like Lu Li.

"Grandma, is kitten Lu Li's nickname?"

"It's his milk name, when he was born, he was very small, very well-behaved, like a kitten."

My mind immediately appeared with Lu Li lying on the table sleeping quietly, the sun falling on the side of his face, his long and dense eyelashes trembling gently, indeed like a docile kitten.

Grandma told me about Lu Li's childhood again, and when the two of us were chatting happily, Lu Li came in with good water.

Lu Li picked up a bottle of medicine on the table, skillfully poured out a few, and handed it to grandma along with warm water, "Grandma, it's time to take medicine, rest after eating, and I'll call you again when I have dinner." ”

After saying that, I immediately understood, got up from my chair, and said to my grandmother, "Grandma, it's time for me to go home, you have a good rest." ”

"Okay, if you have a chance to see grandma again, you can send Zhenzhen kitten," grandma waved at me, and her childlike expression was mischievous, "Don't forget the secret between us." ”

I nodded, made an OK gesture to my grandmother, and followed Lu Li out of the ward.

After walking a few steps, Lu Li turned his face sideways and asked, "What secret did you tell my grandmother?" ”

I shook my head mysteriously, "I can't say, this is an agreement between me and my grandmother." ”

Lu Li didn't break the sand pot and asked to the end, turned his face to the front, and said in a gentle tone, "My grandma seems to like you a lot." ”

"That's, I'm a grandma killer." I deliberately teased.

Lu Li gave me a blank look and didn't reply.

Seeing that Lu Li didn't speak again, I cautiously asked, "Lu Li, what kind of illness did your grandmother have?" ”

"Heart disease."

Lu Li lowered his eyebrows, I couldn't see the look in Lu Li's eyes clearly, but I saw the corners of Lu Li's slightly tired eyes, and the faint stubble at the corners of his lips. My heart hurt like something had bitten me.

I couldn't say decent comfort, so I had to change the topic hastily, "What piano competition did I hear you say last time?" ”

"National Youth Piano Qualifiers."

Lu Li's voice became cold, and I suddenly remembered that when Lu Li told me to participate in the competition, it was when I was misunderstood by Lu Li to send love letters. I regretted it so much that I wanted to bite off my tongue.

I had no choice but to say, "Then, come on." ”

And then we didn't have any more conversations.

When I arrived at the elevator entrance, Lu Li pressed the elevator button for me, and I stood in front of the elevator and watched the numbers on the display screen jump rapidly, just as I was about to reach our floor. I opened my mouth and called out "Lu Li".

Lu Li turned his head and waited for me to speak.

"Actually, that day, I sent the letter for Gu Zijin. Gu Zijin didn't let me tell others, otherwise he would break off his friendship with me. ”

"Then you tell me now, aren't you afraid that she will break up with you?" Lu Li tilted his head to look at me, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

My heart was pounding, "But I don't want you to be misunderstood." ”

After saying this, the elevator door just opened, I hurriedly jumped in, the crowd squeezed me into the innermost part of the elevator, and before I could say goodbye to Lu Li, the elevator door closed.

I walked out of the hospital, the autumn wind was blowing in my face, I gathered my coat and walked into the crowd with an inexplicable mood.
