Chapter 7 Let's not meet again
Grandma's flower shop is open on the corner of the roadside, there is no direct bus, now I am suitable for hiking, fortunately the weather is gloomy, there will be no signs of heat stroke, the Walkman in my hand finally turned off automatically when the battery was low, but I was reluctant to take off the headphones.
When I finally walked to the flower shop, I saw a couple arguing with my grandmother, and they thought that my grandmother's flower arrangement was too ugly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll re-insert a bunch for you, soon." I hurried forward to relieve the siege.
My grandmother was so happy to see me.
"Grandma, I want to eat your cooking, leave it to me here." I said to my grandmother.
Grandma's back seems to be more clumsy, her hair is almost completely white, and it will only take another year to go back to take care of her when I graduate.
"Your flowers are ready, just now my grandmother, she is old, I apologize to you on her behalf, and give you another rose, I hope you are happy."
For the first time, I felt that this job was actually for me.
Grandma was busy in the kitchen with her apron on, and she didn't seem to have a good memory, forgetting to put salt for a while, and forgetting to turn on the fire for a while, but I didn't know that I was already in tears behind me.
I even disliked her for being old-fashioned and didn't know it, and I said a lot of things that cared about her but never took action.
One year, the school held a parent-teacher conference, and I happened to have a quarrel with my classmates, because the girl laughed at me for not having parents, I pulled her hair in a fit of anger, and she began to cry, and everyone began to accuse me of being violent, and my grandmother protected me in the crowd, tried her best to break the siege, and denounced for me, and finally both sides apologized.
But in the end, I learned from the head teacher that my grandmother went door to door afterwards to apologize and give gifts, hoping that other children could play with me and not laugh at me for not having parents.
I was angry when I knew that my grandmother apologized in a low voice, I was angry that she didn't distinguish between right and wrong, and accused her of never thinking from my point of view.
Now that she has her own family and her own child, she was visibly surprised when she saw me, and walked past me with a normal face, and the hand of the child in her hand tightened again.
What I didn't know was that my grandmother had been looking for me all night, and before she could eat, she fell into a mud puddle on the road without any light, and then continued to get up and call my name.
When I went back the next morning, my grandmother only remembered asking me if I was hungry or cold, and when she hugged me tightly, she found out that I had a fever, but I went back to my room like a puppet and closed the door, no matter how kind my grandmother said, I don't even remember how she finally took me to the hospital, and it was raining very hard that day.
Another time when I had a birthday, I saw other people's children wearing princess dresses and eating cakes, and it was false to say that I didn't envy me, but I knew that my grandmother had worked hard to support me, so I just blinked my eyes and lied that the wind and sand blew into my eyes.
When I came back from school in the evening, there was a birthday cake on the table, small but delicate, and my grandmother said that she didn't like sweets, so I ate it all to my stomach, and in the morning I found that the ring on my grandmother's finger was missing.
Grandma said that it was the only thought that grandpa left her, although I had not met grandpa, but he was the most considerate and romantic person in grandma's eyes.
They were introduced to each other by the family, grandma is virtuous and gentle, grandpa is mature and steady, should be the happiest couple, but in a car accident to save a child on the night of the anniversary of the grandmother, grandma rushed to the hospital, grandpa held a ring in his hand, and closed his eyes with a smile.
He said that he was sorry for my girl, and that he would have a better life without me, but he didn't know that the girl had never married.
That day, I learned that my so-called father was not my grandmother's biological son, because my grandfather was an orphan, and my grandmother never had a child, so she went to the orphanage to adopt a child, just to leave a descendant for my grandfather.
……
I secretly wiped my tears and took the spice box in my grandmother's hand, "Grandma, I'll cook today, you can see if my cooking skills have improved, go to the sofa and watch TV." ”
"We're the smartest and filial, so it's hard to come back, grandma will do it." Grandma's eyes were full of happiness, but it made me feel a little dazzling.
In the end, I was a grandmother who cooked a big table of meals. I told her a lot of interesting stories about school, but my grandmother was always the one who knew me best.
"If you are wronged, come back to grandma, grandma will tolerate you infinitely, see everything a little, and we will be happy in the future."
Grandma shook my hand, looking at me with too much reluctance, "But grandma wants to see you meet a boy like the sun, even if grandma can't be by your side in the future, he can take care of you for grandma." ”
I shook my grandmother's hand, "Grandma will always be by my side, and soon I will come back to take care of the flower shop with you, and we will make the flower shop beautiful." ”
This time, my grandmother didn't answer me, but just paused with her hand cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks.
I had to sleep with my grandmother at night, only to find that my house had been cleaned up by my grandmother, and the books and dolls had been kept and neatly arranged, and I saw in the drawer the diary I had written in high school, almost all of which were about promises, but now I couldn't read a word, and mechanically tore up page by page and threw it into the paper basket.
It's time for everything about him to end.
"Hello grandma, I'm looking for Shen Li." When I opened my eyes, I heard a familiar voice, and sure enough, it was Xu Su.
"Is the meeting over?"
"Why don't you answer the phone?" Hearing this questioning, I remembered that the phone was turned off yesterday, and when I turned it back on, I found that there were a lot of missed calls and messages, the most of which were Xu Su, Luo Shi, and even Teacher Zhou.
I sent a message back to Luo Shi, and when I looked up, I found that Xu Su had been staring at me.
"I'll go back to school tomorrow, and if you have nothing to do, you can stay and have dinner together." Xu Su was silent for a while, and tucked his clothes, "Actually, I know grandma, and the child that grandpa saved in a car accident is my father." ”
You said that everything in this world has cause and effect, so you approached me to repay me, right?
Grandma cooked a big table of food for Xu Su, and when I asked him about the current situation at home, I just felt weak, and I had to force a smile and hand Xu Su rice for a night.
A lot has happened, but I wasn't a kid in a honey pot since I was a kid, and I should be happy, shouldn't I? Complaining is already the most cowardly approach.
At night, Xu Su and I walked on the street, I was far away from him, he walked in front, stopped and waited for me, his eyes full of exhaustion and loneliness.
"You should be a happy boy, Xu Su." I hugged Xu Yu tightly, as soon as I looked up, I saw his Adam's apple, stood on tiptoe and kissed his Adam's apple, I obviously felt his hand on my back tightened again, along the Adam's apple I suddenly wanted to kiss Xu Su, my hands hooked his neck, as soon as he lowered his head, he touched my lipstick lips, and when he wanted to continue, I suddenly let go.
"Xu Su, let's not meet again in the future."
Xu Su touched his lips, and when he came to his senses and chased out, Shen Li was already gone.
He knew her, and he also knew that when he told the truth today, he knew that he and Shen were separated.
Although he did approach Shen Li with the mentality of repaying his kindness at the beginning, the development of the relationship in the end was no longer expected by Xu Su.
