Chapter 365: Visitation
Zhou Qi was not reluctant, took out a book from the side, and sat on the Taishi chair next to the bed to read it to Jane. It's something he's been doing every night lately, and Jane Yi has gone from resisting at first to completely ignoring his presence, and now he's used to it.
She also sometimes felt very strange, he had never done such a thing before, and now he was obviously busier than before, and he didn't know where he got the patience to do such trivial tasks.
Zhou Qi's voice was slow and low, reading sentence by sentence as if no one was around, until he saw Jian Yi close his eyes, he gently closed the book.
Jian Yi woke up the next morning and found that Zhou Qi did not go to work, sitting in the living room casually. She didn't know what day it was, and when she heard the noise of the children outside, she remembered that it was the weekend.
Breakfast was shredded chicken porridge brought back from outside, and after eating it slowly, Sister Ding took out the dough and said with a smile: "Let's make buns together today, I have prepared several kinds of fillings." After wrapping up, Miss Fan will come over and bring some back for her. ”
Jian Yi thought that this kind of thing would not be her turn, but who knew that Sister Ding kneaded the noodles, and Zhou Qi pushed her to the restaurant. Sister Ding is a rollout, and Jian Yi and Zhou Qi are in charge of the bag. And said very calmly: "If the two of us don't help, when will Sister Ding have to wrap up?" ”
Jian Yi's movements are not flexible, and she rarely makes pasta in the past, so it is laborious to wrap it. Zhou Qi, who is good at being next to him, is not much better than her, he has never done such a thing, and the bun is not wrapped well, but he gets a whole body of flour, which is quite embarrassing.
Sister Ding shook her head and encouraged the two of them to pack a few more. As she spoke, she rolled the skin quickly, and from time to time she would free up her hand to point out a few of them along the way.
When the bun was wrapped, Jian Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, his hands were covered with flour, and Zhou Qi pushed Jian Yi to wash his hands.
He washed his hands himself, then took warm water from a basin and set it aside. Jian Yi was going to wash it himself, but he held her hand and carefully washed the flour on her fingers. Jane wanted to say that she would wash it, but her eyes touched the side of his face, which was close at hand, and she swallowed the words back, leaving him to help.
Her fingers were as slender as onions, and even though the weather was warm, they were still cold. Zhou Qi held her hand and soaked it in warm water, washed it carefully, and dried it with a towel, and then said, "Okay." ”
The sun was warm, and Sister Ding was busy steaming steamed buns in the kitchen. Zhou Qi pushed Jian Yi outside, poured her a cup of tea and put it away, and watered the flowers and plants himself.
Jian Yi's time for this day is fixed, and rehabilitation training will begin at noon. Every time I finish it, I am already sweating, and I don't even want to move.
It was the same on this day, except that when she came out after training and took a shower and changed her clothes, there was already a guest sitting in the living room. It's Zhou Jining, who I haven't seen for a long time.
He went to see her twice when she was in the hospital, but at that time she was so immersed in her own world that she didn't even know when he left.
Seeing him now, he couldn't help but be stunned, and called Senior Brother Zhou.
Zhou Qi was there all day, but at this time he was gone, and I don't know where he went.
Zhou Jining smiled slightly, stood up, and said, "Come here to meet customers, and come to see you by the way." ”
Although it was warm outside in the sun, this house was an old house, and it was a little cold and gloomy. Sister Ding set up refreshments in the courtyard outside, and then asked Zhou Jining to sit outside.
In the afternoon, the courtyard was exceptionally silent, and the alley was rarely quiet, except for the crickets in the corners.
Zhou Jining picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, his eyes fell on Jian Yi's body, and asked, "How is your body recovering?" ”
Now she is much better than when she was in the hospital, her face is slightly bloody, and she is no longer as lifeless as she was in the hospital. One look at it is clear that it is well taken care of.
Jian Yi smiled slightly and said, "It's much better, hmm, it's undergoing rehabilitation." She didn't want to talk about herself, looked at Zhou Jining, and asked, "Senior brother, have you been busy lately?" ”
"It's okay, it's a little easier than before." Now that the company is on the right track, there is no need to be as tense as before. Don't worry about someone stumbling behind you anymore.
Jian Yi asked Jiang Luo Yaolai again, she has been traveling abroad with her girlfriends these days, and it is estimated that it will take half a month to come back.
The two of them didn't talk much, and after chatting about some family things, they couldn't find anything to say. Jian Yi was silent, looking ahead and not knowing what he was thinking.
Her shoulders were thin, and her whole body was as thin as a piece of paper, as if a gust of wind could blow it away. Zhou Jining's gaze fell on her, and after a long time, he spoke: "Ah Yi, you have to be good." If Tong Yuan is still there, he must hope that you are well. ”
Although Jian Yi had a smile on her face when she spoke to him, he could tell the heaviness in her at a glance. Peng Tongyuan's departure was like a big mountain, which weighed her pain and drained her happiness.
This is the first time in a long time that someone has mentioned Peng Tongyuan in front of her. Jian Yi's eyes wet uncontrollably. She didn't want to cry in front of Zhou Jining, she pressed down the choking in her throat, and only said after a long time: "I'm fine, thank you, senior brother." ”
The two of them stayed outside for a short time, and then Zhou Qi came back, and he actually went shopping. After entering the courtyard, he handed over the things to Sister Ding and said to Zhou Jining, "Let's stay and eat at night." ”
Zhou Jining didn't refuse, and nodded well.
In the past, the two hardly communicated with each other, but in the later days, they got along more and more peacefully. The two chatted about the economy and the recent situation, and Zhou Qi would occasionally pour tea and water for Jian Yi, or bring her a piece of pastry. Time passed quickly in this peace, as if twilight had been closed in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Qi looked up at the sky in the distance that was darkening from blue to blue, and when he heard Sister Ding calling for dinner, he got up and motioned for Zhou Jining to go first, and he slowly pushed Jian Yi into the house behind him.
The old house was dimly lit and the lights were already on in the house. Usually, the meals of Jian Yi and Zhou Qi are very simple, but today there are more Zhou Jining extraordinarily rich. Sister Ding made a table of her best dishes.
I don't know if it was Zhou Qi's instructions or what, she also opened a bottle of red wine. The two of them drank, and the simple meaning was the drink.
It was a very peaceful night, with several windows open and the evening breeze blowing in. At a glance, the alley outside the wall was already brightly lit, and Zhou Qi and Zhou Jining occasionally bumped into each other, chatting with each other.
