When Hong Shiyi woke up, the sky was already bright, and he couldn't help but think in his heart, I lived another day, and my life span was extended by one day.With this state, I might not die. Today I feel that the fever has subsided a lot, and the headache has eased a lot. The doctor said that my body is very dangerous. If it must be threatening me, I don’t have to be afraid.This time I learned a great lesson. From then on, I will do my work in moderation and stop doing stupid things like desperately copying books.Love is important, but life is even more important; if you don't have this life, how can you fall in love?Put away your own ambition, don't think about Xiao Nan anymore.But as he thought about it, when the word Xiaonan reached his heart, he continued to exist and refused to sink.Then I thought, if I don't go to Chang's house for two days, I don't know if the people in Chang's house miss me?At least Xiao Nan's father, he will be thinking about it.The reason why I disappeared suddenly was probably because I was afraid that he would blame me, so I had to give them some news.Although he was ill in bed, he kept thinking about Xiao Nan and his daughter.His father and daughter treated him a little differently, what layman Chang was thinking about was, why didn't Mr. Hong come this day?Xiaonan played at Liu's house all day today, ate at Liu's house, took a bath at Liu's house, and brought a lot of clothes home.She didn't even have time to think about Hong Shiyi, let alone ask whether he came or not.

After two days like this, Hong Shiyi never came, but Sanye Liu lent two yuan to buy noodles and rice for the Chang family's food, so there was no need to think about food to Shiyi.However, regarding this point, I was a little puzzled, this Mr. Hong was very enthusiastic, why didn't he come all of a sudden?So puzzled, another night passed, and the next morning, when I got the letter, a rickshaw driver shouted in the yard, "Is this Chang's house?" Yes, that one?" The coachman said: "I am Hong Shiyi's neighbor, he fell ill, and he asked me to bring a message to tell you that he can't get up for the time being." Hearing that, layman Chang hurriedly fumbled away. When you come outside, ask what is the disease?The coachman said, "I can't tell. It must be very heavy." Then he left.When Layman Chang heard about it, he couldn't help calling Amitabha several times.Since I don't have eyesight, I can't go to see other people's illnesses. The girl often runs outside, so I can ask her to go for a walk.So, I went outside the gate and called Xiao Nan a few times, but no matter how much I shouted, there was no response at all. She probably went to Liu's house again.Layman Chang thought to himself, what's so interesting about this Liu family?This kid hangs around in other people's homes all day long.Muttering like this in his mouth, he slowly walked home.

In the afternoon, I listened to the shouts of selling mutton head meat on the street.He knew that it was getting dark, usually the mutton-head sellers would come at dinner time, but now at such a time, Xiao Nan hadn't come home yet, and it was too late to check on someone's illness today.Sitting on the bed by himself, he couldn't stop moaning.After some time, when I heard the door slamming, I was about to ask if it was Xiao Nan?Xiao Nan called out, "Father, are you hungry?" Chang Layman replied in a heavy voice, "I forgot." Xiao Nan said, "Are you hurting me by saying this? Think I didn't cook for you, But it's still early." Chang Layman said: "I'm not hurting you, I'm waiting for you to faint. Mr. Hong has been ill for several days, and asked someone to bring us a message. When your mother was ill, How hard is Mr. Hong? He brought a message when he was sick, shouldn’t we go and see him?” Xiao Nan said, “You’re blaming me, I’m not at home, how do I know he’s sick? Layman Chang said: "That's right. You don't come back all the time, but I'm so anxious. You can only get up early tomorrow, and come together to see Mr. Hong's illness, and then go to your mother's hospital. If you don't If you go, I will turn against you." When he said, his voice was very heavy.Xiao Nan originally wanted not to go, but after hearing her father's harsh words, she was too scared to say what she wanted to excuse.I quietly cooked a meal and my father ate it, and went to bed by myself.In the dimness, I heard my father shout: "Get up, get up." I opened my eyes and saw that the room was still dark, because I said, "What's wrong with you? Are you dreaming? You wake me up before dawn. Layman Chang said: "I didn't sleep well all night. I just remembered that it was dawn. I heard the second watch, the third watch and the fourth watch. Didn't the fifth watch come?" body, and fell asleep.

When she woke up, the sun was already full of the window.According to Xiao Nan's intention, if he cooks something for his father, he will go to Liu's house.But as soon as she came to the kang, Lay Chang heard it from outside. He said: "In terms of conscience and worldly wisdom, you should go and see Mr. Hong's body." Xiao Nan is such an older girl, and this situation cannot be ignored He didn't understand, so he said: "Don't talk too much, I'll just go. But do you just go to see other people's illnesses with bare hands?" This sentence, Chang Layman thought it was reasonable, because he said: "That is naturally impossible. The money you got back the day before yesterday, you still have a few cents, right? You can use that money to buy some candies and candied dates, and go see if he gets it." Xiao Nan said: "How much money is there in total? Shouldn't you keep it for dinner? I Borrow something and give it to him." Chang Jushi said: "What? Borrow something to give away, what are you going to give away?" Xiaonan said: "When I was in the hospital, I saw someone took a handful A bouquet of flowers to see a patient, I thought, put a handful of flowers in the vase of the Liu family, and just ask them for a handful." Chang Lay said: "You are really borrowing flowers to offer Buddha. I'm sick, and I don't know whether to avoid my mouth or not. It may not be suitable to buy food; it would be good to find a handful of flowers, so go." Xiaonan said: "I have to make your food , then it’s easy to go.” Chang Lay said: “You don’t have to cook for me, you go, I’m still thinking about your mother’s illness, when you come back, let’s eat together.” Xiao Nan was most afraid of his father Wordy, sooner or later I always have to go, so why bother with my father?With a bang, he closed the courtyard door and walked out.She did as she said and went to Liu's house to borrow flowers.

When she walked to Liu's house, she saw that the door was closed tightly, and the two copper rings were hanging on it, not moving at all. I'm afraid they would be unhappy if they woke up.Standing by the gate, he was just in a daze.I thought to myself, should I go or not?What if people don't get up? €Open the door?But if you want to send a bouquet of flowers to a patient without calling the door, where can you find it?Just as she was hesitating, the door of Liu's house opened with a bang.I suddenly realized that it was not a fair thing to hang around in front of someone's house early in the morning, so I dodged backwards.At that time, a maid came out of the door, took a dustpan full of dirt in her hand, walked to the corner of the field outside the door, and poured it down.She was eager to go in, but she ignored a girl standing by the wall.When Xiao Nan looked at the mound of dirt, it was a coincidence that there were two bouquets of dead flowers on it.Go forward and pick it up, and although the color of the flower has withered a bit, the leaves are still green and lush, and you can still take it to give away.Take it like this, as long as it has a little meaning, what does it matter if it is not very new?Anyway, he didn't know that I picked it up in the dirt pile.She made up her mind, and begged for a ladle of water from the Kushui well at the entrance of the alley, sprinkled some of the bunch of flowers in her hand, and then walked towards Hong Shiyi's guild hall.Because it was early, most people in the guild hall hadn't woken up, and it was still quiet inside.Xiao Nan walked to the middle of the courtyard and asked, "Which room does Mr. Hong Shiyi live in?" Shi Yi woke up before dawn, and was lying on his pillow thinking about his thoughts. If you are fascinated by things, you will not be able to succeed in any business.From now on, I will never get close to any woman again, and only cultivate my will to be hard-working... He was thinking about what he was proud of, when he suddenly heard a woman's voice outside asking himself, this is clearly Xiao Nan, and immediately shouted loudly on the bed He agreed, "In this room, in this room."

Xiao Nan walked to the door of the room, stretched his head to look in, Tu Yi saw her face first, and then saw the bouquet of flowers in her hand, he smiled and said, "Why are you here? Please come in, please come in!" Xiao Nan walked in slowly next to the door.Walking to the bed, he asked in a low voice, "Are you feeling better? My dad asked me to come and see you."Shi Yi showed his white teeth with a smile, nodded and said, "I'm much better. Hey! You even bought a bunch of flowers." Xiao Nan said with a smile: "My father said, I'm afraid you won't talk, so I dare not send you Something to eat, so I gave you a bouquet of flowers." Shi Yi said: "Why spend that money? If you have the money to buy flowers, you can buy a meal." How can Xiao Nan say that he didn't buy it?Just smiled at others.Shi Yi said: "Thank you for sending the flowers. But my poor family doesn't have a flower arrangement yet." When Xiaonan stuck her head in from the door, she felt that Shi Yi's room was too beautiful. It's simple, it's still the end of spring, and in the north, a thick quilt is needed, but what he sleeps on is just a straw mattress with a torn sheet. How did she know that the quilt on Tu Yi's bed has been sent to the pawn shop for Did she change into new clothes?He was lying on it, covered half of it with a worn-out overcoat he picked up somewhere.On the table by the window, although there are some worn-out books, this is the only one.There is a square stool beside the table, which can seat one person, but if there are two guests, one person has to stand.Only then did Xiao Nan understand that Hong Shiyi was so poor, and compared with each other, there was only a few miles of difference.Xiao Nan felt strange for a while, since he is so poor, why does he still help me like that?If you have the money to buy me clothes, won’t you buy a quilt yourself?

When she was looking at Shi Yi's room like this, Shi Yi was also looking at her.After a few days of not seeing her, she was a completely different person.The most conspicuous thing is her shaggy braid, which is now cut into short hair. It is dark in color and full of fragrance, and it has been permed into a cloud shape. Under the hair, a lake-colored silk braid is tied. On, tied a little bowknot.Wearing a pink half-worn long flag shirt, that slender figure fits the contours of the whole body, the waist is slender, and the chest is straightened out. There is no need to elaborate on the provocative meaning.He was stunned. Unexpectedly, she became so beautiful in a few days, but he didn't know where she got a sum of money and suddenly became rich.I wanted to ask her, where did this dress come from?However, thinking about it, I don't have the qualifications to question other people's actions, just look at it.When he stopped looking, Xiao Nan realized that wearing such a new outfit today would inevitably attract his attention, which would let him know that I, Chang Xiaonan, are not poor enough to afford good clothes.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little smug on his face. He deliberately walked a few steps in the room with a smile, put a bouquet of flowers on the table, put his hand on the edge of the table, hung one foot, and stood there shaking.Hong Shijiao was a little embarrassed, there was no tea for people to drink, and nothing for people to eat, even the stool he was sitting on was uneven and had many holes, seeing Xiao Nan touched it with his hands a few times, he still refused to sit down.Shi Yi said, "Sorry, I don't have a place to sit here, what should I do?" Xiao Nan said, "You're welcome, I'm leaving." After speaking, he turned around and walked out the door .Shi Yilian said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, for being negligent." But before he finished speaking, Xiao Nanzi had already walked away.

Shi Yi looked at the bunch of green leaves on the table, red and white, surrounded by a cluster of flowers.Just from the color of the flower, I fantasized about Xiaonan's clothes and face.I feel that she is a woman with such a beauty that I can't get close to. Having such a woman to visit a doctor can not only give me spiritual comfort, but also show my pride to the fellow countrymen in the guild hall. , Don't look at me, Hong, who is poor, and there is such a beautiful girl who came to see my illness.But even though he thought so, at the same time he encountered a dilemma. Chang's family was so poor that he had no food to eat, and his own home became a beggar's nest. Where would he have the money to make clothes for Xiao Nan?Xiao Nan suddenly decorated like this, could it be because of the borrowed clothes?But she is a coal-core girl, and her friends have no good friends, and her relatives have no good relatives. Where can she borrow these clothes?In any case, I must find out, where did her clothes come from?But then again, what if I found out?Can it still interfere with other people's acceptance of other people's things?If you can't interfere, you will touch your nose when you ask, so it's not worth it.Thinking in my heart, I looked at the bunch of flowers on the table with both eyes, just lost in thought.He thought to himself, a friend sent flowers, but there was nothing to put them in. Such a life would be too boring.He was in a trance here, the long class opened the door and looked inside.Shi Yi nodded to him again and again and said, "Come in! Find a vase and put these flowers in." The long class smiled and said, "My husband, there is not even a job in this guild hall. Where can I find someone who arranges flowers?" Go to the vase?" Shi Yi said: "Old wine bottles and old soy sauce bottles are available, you can find one, fill it with a bottle of water and bring it, please excuse me." , I actually found a wine bottle filled with water, brought it in, put it on the table, and inserted the flowers in it.Shi Yi made a few gestures with his hands and said: "Take it here and put it in front of my bed." The long class helped the flower a few times with his hand, and said with a smile: "The flower is all withered, and you still treat it as a treasure." What?" Shi Yi said: "Nonsense! How do you say that the newly bought flowers are withered?" He patted the end of the bench protruding from under the bed plank, just asking him to put the vase on it.The head class felt that he was a bit stupid, so he followed his advice and put the vase on the bench.Shi Yi saw a half-wilted pink rose among the bunch of flowers, so he stretched out his hand to fold it, intending to put it to his nose to smell it.As soon as the hand pinched the flower stem, the wooden thorn on it pricked viciously, and two bright red blood beads immediately appeared on the fingertips.Shi Yi suddenly realized in his heart, by the way, the flowers are fragrant and beautiful, but they have thorns, so we don't need to pick flowers.I got sick all over because of Xiao Nan, she may not be affectionate to me, but isn't it the same as getting pricked by a thorn to pick these roses?But then again, she came to see me today and even gave me a bouquet of flowers. Doesn't that mean she is close to me?Well, when I recover from illness, I still have to continue to work hard.

Thinking of this, he seemed to get a kind of comfort in his heart.Once happy, the disease will be much better.Of course, the doctors from the affiliated hospital of the Charity Association continued to treat Bo Yuemo and rested for a week. Hong Shiyi's illness was completely cured.During this week, although Xiao Nan never came to visit him, the bouquet of flowers sent by Xiao Nan was placed in front of the bed in this room as an offering, which could very well represent her.When this bouquet of flowers was delivered to this house, it was only half fresh.After a week of offering, only some green leaves are left in this bunch of flowers.But these green leaves are already very cute.And those petals that fell, Shi Yi also refused to spoil half of the petals, so he kept them completely and put them under the pillow.After getting out of bed after recovering from illness, I found a clean white paper, wrapped the dried petals and leaves, and stuffed it into my pocket.I barely rested at home for a whole morning, but in the afternoon, I couldn't bear it anymore.So I hired a car and went to Layman Chang's house.As soon as he got out of the car, he heard Xiao Nan's delicate voice shouting: "Wait for me, wait for me." When Shi Yi looked forward, he saw two women in beautiful clothes walking in front of the alley. , Xiao Nan ran behind and followed.Looking at the clothes she is wearing today, she has changed again.The upper body is a light green gown, and the knees have to be flat, and the flesh-colored silk stockings are exposed underneath, and the two round legs are tightly bound.The two sleeves are short, exposing the arms other than the crutches, naturally slipping back in white.Today's hair is not permed, the top is parted in the middle, and two braids are combed.It droops left and right, resting on the ears, and each has a big red knot flower tied on the braid.This is even more innocent, petite and exquisite.I wanted to call Miss Chang, but I saw her running on the road with two beige leather shoes, rushing forward.The beautiful woman in front smiled and said to her: "There is a car parked in front of your house. Someone is here?" , and walked away holding hands.Although I don't know what she is talking about, but looking at it like that, she doesn't want to pay attention to a friend in rags like myself. Young people always want to save face, so why bother to say anything!Because he shouted the word "Ms. Chang" that came to his lips, he completely endured it again, and stood at the door of Lay Chang in a daze.Layman Chang is blind to his eyes, but not to his heart. He knew that there was a guest at the gate from various noises, so he groped out and asked, "Which one is at the gate?" Shi Yi was greatly disappointed. Under the circumstances, I was going to turn around and go back.But often when the layman shouted like this, he had to agree, so he said, "Old man, it's Hong Shiyi who is here." After talking, he walked in.

Layman Chang stood by the door, grabbed his hand and said, "Is your body well?" Shi Yi said, "Tofu, he's completely cured." I will be discharged from the hospital in about two or three days. Please, what happened to the matter you recommended to our wife? " Shi Yi said: "I haven't been to the charity association for a long time, so I don't know what happened I’ll reply to your letter in two days.” After saying this, he left and walked out, thinking in his heart, alas!Don't you old gentleman know that your girl has become a fashionable lady now, would she want her mother to be a worker?When he thought about it, there was a fine fragrance that passed into his nose.She shrugged her nose twice to tell that it was the scent of powder.Looking back, it was Xiao Nan who came, so he stretched out his hand to take off the hat on his head, nodded to her and said, "Miss, are you busy?" Xiao Nan smiled and nodded slightly: "It's okay, but I'm playing at Liu's house." Just play. Is your illness cured?" Shi Yi said: "Thank you for thinking about it, Miss, it is considered to be back to the original state." Xiao Nan said: "That's good, see you another day." She talked and walked straight to Liu's house , without looking back.Shi Yi naturally lowered his head and walked on another road.It turned out that after Xiaonan came back from the Liu family that day, in her sleep, she felt that life in the Liu family was sweet, and she asked her father's permission to join their singing and dancing troupe and become a dancer.In Liu Sanye's eyes, she felt that her physique and her voice were unique in the class, not to mention that she had a good face and came from a poor family, so she was very easy to deal with, so He tried his best to encourage Xiao Nan to join their singing and dancing troupe, let her eat here every day, and dug out many old clothes at home, and handed them to Xiao Nan to wear.How can Xiaonan withstand the temptation of this foreign object?So during this week, she was busy at Mr. Liu's house all day long, often forgetting to cook for her father, and starved layman Chang for a meal.When she came back, Layman Chang questioned her casually, and she could answer a few sentences with a smile; Let’s cook.” Every time she finished speaking, she would run away in one jump or two.For this reason, Layman Chang did not dare to scold her, so he had to sue her with good words.That day when she saw Hong Shiyi coming, she didn't pay much attention and came to Liu's courtyard.

The courteous Mr. Wang Sun wore a shirt with a lapel collar, his sleeves were rolled up high, and his white arms were bare. He held a tennis racket in one hand and a tennis ball in the other, and couldn't stop talking. Toss in the air.Seeing Xiao Nan coming in, he smiled at her and said, "I'll teach you how to play tennis, okay?" Xiao Nan said, "I don't like to play this." Wang Sun said, "What do you like to play?" Ding, looking at him with a smile.After a long time, he said: "I love everything, but I have no money, so what can I say?" Wang Sun laughed and said, "It's easy to handle. Do you want to go to the theater? Go to the park? Watch a movie?" It's all easy to handle, just let me do the work." Then, he handed the tennis ball to the hand holding the racket, and with one hand free, he supported her shoulder and patted her twice, smiling. "What do you say? What do you say?" Just as he was flirting like this, the protagonist Liu Sanye just came out. When he saw Wang Sun's expression, he expressed his complacency, swayed his body twice, and then Smiling, he said, "Xiao Wang, how about I found this pearl? Isn't it a talent that can be cultivated? I thought her cultivation would be more than continuous in the future." Yes, he agreed, but he thought that Mianmian was the third master's goddaughter. If Xiaonan's sex skills surpassed Mianmian's, then he would be contemptuous of the protagonist, because he said with a smile: "Is she as good as that? But she is rich in new women. The beauty is almost unmatched by ordinary people.” Speaking of this, he still did not let go of the hand that patted Xiao Nan’s shoulder, and gently squeezed the plump flesh on her shoulder twice, pinching Xiao Nan’s body tightly. With a hee hee smile, he shrank back.Mr. Liu said with a smile: "Xiao Wang, looking at you like this, you are a little obsessed with her, right?" Said: "I'm going to apply that fashionable argument again. Now you should guide her when she is in trouble. This is not like a national event. How many years will it take? In three months, she will be able to understand everything. At that time, you can practice love." Wang Sun smiled and said: "If the basic work is completed and she doesn't support me, what should I do?" Liu Sanye said: "It depends on your wrist? Youdao is preconceived, since you are a responsible person, and she has been taught by you, she must not forget your benefits, and in the current three months, you can always be regarded as the only person close to you, you will not do your best Do you want to catch her center?" Xiao Nan stared at the two of them and said, "What are you talking about?" Mr. Liu said, "Our rule here is that every young lady should find someone to do it." Brother, come to be her protector, Mr. Wang is very willing to be your god-brother, I wonder if you are willing?" Xiao Nan shrank back with a smile.Mr. Liu smiled and said: "Really, he really wants to be your brother. You have this brother who can teach you how to sing and dance at home, and play with you when you go out. He can eat and drink with you. It's not better than being alone. Is there a lot?" Xiao Nan fiddled with the tie under the lapel, just smiling slightly.Mr. Liu smiled and said to Wang Sun: "Look, what you mean, she has completely acquiesced, so you can attack. You should thank me, I found such a pearl for you in the grass, You can't help but say that I'm a hero with great eyesight?" Saying this, she walked forward, wrapped Wangsun and Xiaonan's bodies with both hands, let them squeeze together, and gently placed her hands on the two bodies. After clapping a few times, he said, "That's how it should be done." Then, he turned around and left immediately. Xiao Nan has been in Liu's house for a long time, and seeing men and women getting close to each other, they can do anything, and the two of them stand tightly together, which is not a big deal, so she accepts it calmly.Just at this time, someone in the room above lifted the door curtain a little bit, revealing half of an apple-like face, looking there.Xiao Nan guessed that someone was looking at him, so he turned his body away immediately, and the brother and sister Chu Kuang and Chu Ge rushed out, and smiled at them, "Why are you so affectionate?" Xiao Nan blushed, lowered her head and said nothing.Chu Kuang said to Wang Sun: "You are attacking a little bit violently, right?" Wang Sun smiled and said: "What is violent? This is the third master's win over, I can't resist." Chu Ge laughed: "Such a thing can't be resisted. Ah." Chu Kuang said: "That's what I said, if Ms. Chang hadn't met the master who turned iron into gold by the third master, she would have buried such a lifetime; he found out, but let Xiao Wang go quietly, It's too cheap." Wang Sun laughed and said, "Speaking of it, this is really strange. Ms. Chang and we are neighbors, and it's not a day today. Why didn't I find out that she is a bright pearl until now? I thought she became a bright pearl. It's really what Old Chu said, with our third master's skill of turning iron into gold, all the women in the world will become bright pearls. The reason why I am with Ms. Chang is just to complete the third master's work. What does adult beauty mean, what does it mean to be cheap? I don’t understand.” Chu Kuang said, “Aren’t you unyielding? Now you are her god-brother, and we all heard it in the room! I really admire the third master’s Now, I can’t help but say that the third master is not fair, why don’t you find us a bright pearl? You come! I want the king and grandson to treat me, he has a new lovely sister.” When he was speaking, he raised a Hands come, waving in the air.At the same time, he followed the gesture and jumped a few times.At this time, like a gust of wind, many men and women rushed out of the room, surrounding Wang Sun and Xiao Nan.After all, Xiao Nan was not used to such a big scene, so she just lowered her face flushed with shame into her arms, unable to lift it up.But there are people all around, where should she hide?It really made her face turn red with embarrassment.
