When Xu Yanqing got off the bus just now, she didn't feel so cold.
She didn't know if it was because of the heavy snowfall, but the wind became more biting. Not only did her fingers feel cold, she also felt that her face was about to freeze.
Xu Yan heard Yu Yi's voice coming from behind again.
"If you had a different family background than Jiang Yining, I would have recognized you as my sister-in-law a long time ago."
Xu Yanqing could only walk faster and faster to get rid of the voice behind him.
She quickly came to the car, opened the door and got in.
The driver was just about to check his cell phone for fun, "What are you..."
Xu Yanqing hugged the bag in her hand tightly, her little face turned red from the cold, "Uncle, let's go back."
"Ah? Now?"
How long has it been?
"Did you see anyone?"
Xu Yanqing's voice was very soft, "I saw you, but there was something urgent at home."
"Okay, then go back now."
When it comes to romance, it is something that young people can afford.
Xu Yanqing came all this way and stayed for less than twenty minutes. She was really not afraid of hard work.
On the way back, Xu Yanqing's heart was no longer as happy as when she came here, let alone the joy. Xu Yanqing's heart seemed to be stuffed with a ball of rotten cotton.
She lowered the car window and let the knife-like wind blow in the snow all over the sky.
Xu Yanqing looked toward the end of the sky, feeling aggrieved and missing his father and sister even more.
She didn't think about it that much. She came here just to see Yu Zhi. He had always been very proactive, and she wanted to take the initiative too, that's all.
"Girl, aren't you afraid of the cold?"
Snowflakes all fell in her arms and on the bag. Xu Yanqing hurriedly dusted them off with her hands.
She quickly closed the car window.
Yu Yi returned from taking things from the car, and the family had already finished dinner.
She handed the tea to Yu Zhi, "I put a lot of effort into getting it for you."
Yu Zhi crossed his legs and stared at the screen without giving her even a glance, "Just leave it there."
"Mom, look at how desperate he is." Yu Yi said, lightly pressing her palm on Yu Zhi's shoulder. She bent down to take a look, "Whose call are you waiting for?"
Yu Zhi closed the phone and put it on his lap, "Stay away from me."
"You still pestered me every day when you were a child..."
Yu Yi pulled the chair next to her and sat down, "It's your birthday today, did Xu Yanqing call you?"
Yu Zhi's face turned cold and he turned his eyes to look at her.
"Don't be so mean, I'm just asking casually, aren't you guys talking?"
Yu Yi thought of the scene just now, and even more of the bag Xu Yanqing was carrying.
"She doesn't know it's your birthday today, does she? Didn't she give you any gifts?"
Yu Zhi obviously didn't want to hear this.
He stood up from the chair and walked outside to take a breath. Before the door was closed, Mrs. Yu's voice came out.
"You're celebrating the Chinese New Year, you really don't want to pick up any of the pots."
"Mom, have you ever seen anything like this? He takes Xu Yanqing's big and small matters to heart. What about her?"
Yu Yi sarcastically said, "She may know what day it is, but she just doesn't want to prepare anything. If you don't like it..."
Yu Zhi is outside and wants to smoke a cigarette.
As soon as the fire was lit, it was blown out by the wind.
I repeated it twice, and my stubborn mood became a little uncontrollable.
When Xu Yanqing returned home, Wang Linshan had already taken antipyretic medicine and was lying on the bed with a fever.
She quickly came to the bed and touched her forehead. It was still surprisingly hot.
"mom?"
"Mother."
Xu Yanqing shouted several times in succession.
Wang Linshan huddled under the quilt, "Yan Qing, it's cold, it's so cold."
"You can't do this, let's go to the hospital."
Wang Linshan gripped the quilt tightly and refused to move, "It's Chinese New Year... there's no one in the hospital, so I won't let you see her."
"There are people in the emergency department every day, so whoever gets sick has to choose the day."
Xu Yanqing said and lifted the quilt.
Wang Linshan was confused from the fever, holding Xu Yanqing's arm, tears falling down her face, "Have you seen anyone? It's me who's dragging you down again, isn't it?"
"Don't talk such nonsense."
"Yan Qing, where is Xiao Yu?"
Xu Yanqing put a coat on her and went to get her shoes. She squatted at her feet and put on the shoes for Wang Linshan.
"Mom, he has a lot to do. We don't disturb him. I can do it myself."
"Yes, you can't go to him for everything...otherwise..." His family will look down on her daughter even more.
Wang Linshan has endured as much hardship as Xu Yanqing in recent years.
She used to be in good physical condition, but she was tortured many times by Zongzhang and suffered from many diseases.
For example, she couldn't stand the slightest bit of cold, and every time she had a fever, she was so angry that she wished she could kill half of her life.
Xu Yanqing directly called an ambulance. After taking the person to the hospital, he was busy paying to see a doctor.
During the Chinese New Year, there were many people in the emergency room. Wang Linshan was lying on the hospital bed, surrounded only by curtains.
"Words pour."
"Mom, I'm here."
Xu Yanqing held her hand tightly.
"Mom, you should take a nap and you'll be fine after you put the water on."
Xu Yanqing was lying next to the hospital bed, and there was a loud sound of fireworks setting off outside the window.
Every household is celebrating the New Year, lively and happy. Across the river, there is no ban on setting off fireworks, and the sound gets louder and louder.
She is very stubborn and misses her daughter.
Xu Yanqing took out his cell phone and sent him a few words, "Happy birthday."
Yu Zhi replied quickly. "What are you doing?"
She glanced at the intravenous drip bottle hanging on the shelf. Xu Yanqing held Wang Linshan's hand tightly with one hand and could only answer the text message with one hand.
"Get ready to go to bed early."
Yu Zhi replied with two words, "Good night."
There is not much to say, he probably has other things to be busy with.
Xu Yanqing put the phone away, lay down and slept for a while.
The person responsible for keeping an eye on her also entered the hospital. After understanding the situation with the doctor, he learned that Wang Linshan could be discharged after being drained.
Jiang Huai had warned that there was no need to report everything, and they felt there was no need to let Yu Zhi know about such trivial matters.
Three days later.
Xu Yanqing was still on vacation. She got up early to go to the vegetable market to buy a fresh chicken.
After going downstairs and just walking out of the community, a male voice suddenly penetrated into her ears, "Xu Yanqing!"
She was so frightened that she turned around and saw Yu Zhi's figure.
Xu Yanqing rubbed his eyes and saw that he was right.
She rushed over quickly and arrived in front of Yu Zhi, with uncontrollable joy on her face, "Why are you back? You didn't even tell me in advance."
"Do you still remember me?" Yuzhi said with a half-smile, a bit of joking in his tone, but it wasn't entirely a joke.
"Why don't you remember? I also wanted to ask you when you will come back."
She wanted to ask, but she didn't, right?
The two of them had sent messages and video chats in the past few days, but Xu Yanqing never told him to come back soon.
Does she just not care about him that much?
Yu Zhi grabbed her wrist and pinched the bridge of Xu Yanqing's nose with two fingers.
