Chapter 9 Chapter nine

Lao Fang dragged me away from Huaying Kindergarten. "Hush," he said, "better than shaving." I was still in a daze. He teased me, "Crying, I didn't know how to cry, duh, it's useless." I returned the handkerchief to him. He wouldn't understand that when my grandmother died of illness, my mother was only five years old. Thinking of this, I trembled all over. So, wouldn't it be the right time for me? "Hey, wife, relax a little." "Old Fang, my grandmother is going to die." I said in horror. "How do you know?" He widened his eyes.

"Smart man, why don't you use your brain, my mother told me." "Yo." He realized the seriousness of the situation. "She died of," that elusive term suddenly appeared, "heart disease, is there a disease called heart disease?" "yes." "There is no cure?" "Yes, but the death rate is extremely high." I glared at him, "But you have money, can't you have money?" I was really anxious. "Miss, money is not everything. My father also died suddenly of a heart attack. This is the king of Hades telling you to leave at the third watch. Who dares to keep someone until the fifth watch?"

"You must help me." My eyes were red. He yelled strangely, "You are so unbelievable, when will I not help you? But I don't have super powers, I'm just a mortal, and my abilities are limited." "Can we just watch grandma die?" I shouted. "I'm afraid I can only do this! Birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable. Who would like to watch their loved ones breathe their last breath by the sick bed? But everyone has to go through this painful process, and you are not alone, eh." "I can not be reconciled!" "Who would be willing?"

"It's so boring." I covered my face. "Go and protest with the Lord, go," he urged me, "you man." I sat down on a roadside bench and refused to move again. "Don't be sad, Lu Yi," Lao Fang climbed onto my shoulder, "At least you can stay and take care of your mother. She is only a little older, and it will be miserable without you." I was shocked, opened my mouth wide, and fell down again, "What can I do for her? I can't protect myself." "With me," he patted his chest, "to take care of your mother and daughter, I have more than enough for Zhongxin."

He was so warm, I couldn't resist hugging him. That night we thought up a series of plans. Fang Zhongxin believed that we had done a good job at the beginning and had already won grandma's sympathy. "You won't be obtrusive when you appear in the future," he said, "and Ai Mei looks so much like you." I said, "I really look like her." "She is a smart and lovely child. Were you like that when you were a child?" "I don't know, I don't remember." "You don't remember anything." His dissatisfaction was exaggerated.

"Look, you don't understand, I'm a very busy business woman—" "This kind of excuse has become popular now, busy, everyone is proud of being busy, drinking boring tea, eating social dinners , the mouth is busy, creating an illusion that the society will collapse without him, busy like a headless chicken, the little housewife is playing mahjong while calling her children to do homework, it is also a kind of busy, so busy , " He put his hips on his hips, "It turns out that you haven't made any progress." I keep my mouth shut. "If you didn't come here, I bet you would never know your grandmother's surname."

What he said was completely true. "Okay, listen clearly, the first step of the plan—" The first step of the plan: holding a large box of refined chocolates produced by Fang's in my hand, I went to the school gate to meet my mother. Poor and poor, she is very educated and knows that I have delicious food in my hand. Her big eyes show a look of longing, but she tries her best to suppress it and not show it. She is only a little old, and she knows how to control and endure. It is not easy. Grandma came to pick up the child, and I begged her to accept the candy. What is rare is that she was also very generous. Seeing my sincerity, she accepted the box, and my mother was overjoyed.

I didn't mean to say goodbye, and planned the second step: I hope to be friends with their mother and daughter. Grandma looked me up and down again, and said politely that I couldn't afford it. I'm not a quick-witted person, and Lao Fang was not around, so I couldn't play by ear, so I stayed by the roadside. Maybe it's because of the intimacy of blood. Grandma has a special affection for me, a strange woman. Maybe it's the pain on my face that doesn't seem to be pretending, which touched her heart. She reluctantly said: "Mrs. Fang, if the house is not too simple , but I can invite you to have a cup of tea."

"Oh, no," I said, "No no no no." She laughed, laughing at my impulsive willfulness. She is pitiful for her age, but she has been tortured by life. I looked at her with infinite pity, and couldn't help reaching out to hold her hand. Maybe it was the sixth sense that affected her. She said: "Mrs. Fang, it's strange. I seem to have known you for a long time, as if you are my close relative. I can't describe my affection." Great. Aimei saw our third woman talking endlessly, so she went to the shade of a tree. Suddenly, a six or seven-year-old boy rushed out like a bull and bumped into her on purpose, talking too late and then quickly, Aimei fell to the ground, and the boy tried to grab the candy from her hand.

I didn't think much about it at all, I rushed towards him fiercely, my hand was like the wind, I grabbed the collar of the boy's back shirt with one hand, and yelled, "You're going to die, why are you bullying people?" He wanted to break free, but I got angry and hit him on the shoulder vigorously, "I will not let you go today if you have no tutor." The naughty boy couldn't bear the pain and began to howl. Aimei got up from the ground and patted her skirt. She said to the boy: "Lu Junyi, this is the third time you have pushed me to the ground. I must tell the teacher."

Lu Junyi! My brain buzzed, and my hands and feet went limp. That naughty boy seized this opportunity, immediately escaped from my grasp, and ran away, Lu Junyi, my god, Lu Junyi is my father, I accidentally hit my father just now. At this moment, grandma ran over and said, "Da Fang, the little classmates in their class are often so naughty, it's not true, so don't be nervous, that Lu Junyi is famous for his naughtiness in the whole school, he eats the palm of his hand every day." My father was such a person. I quickly said, "I can't see Aimei being bullied." "I'm so grateful that you like Aimee so much." "Miss District, when is it convenient for me to come to your house?" I asked. "How about tomorrow," she gave me the address, "I'll see you tomorrow." "Aimei, see you tomorrow." I did it. He let out a sigh of relief, almost collapsed from exhaustion. While Lao Fang was in the factory, I went back to Fang's house to take a shower. Standing under the rippling water, I can think at ease. Lu Yi, Lu Yi, someone called me. I opened my eyes wide, I was the only one in this bathroom, who, who called me?This voice came again, and kept harassing me. ——Lu Yi, Lu Yi, contact us immediately, concentrate, contact us immediately, you must get rid of distracting thoughts and concentrate. I can't believe this is real, who is talking to me?The sound seemed to be coming out of my head, no, it was not the sound, it was thinking. I was shocked, first I went to the wrong space, and then some outer spacemen wanted to invade my thoughts. Misfortunes never come singly, and my life is over. I jumped out of the bathroom dripping wet, rolled up a towel, and ran to the room. Panting all the way, he hurriedly put on his clothes. The voice stopped, I touched my face, looked at my limbs, I was still me, and then I slowly calmed down. "Lu Yi, Lu Yi." Here it comes again, I scream. "Lu Yi!" Someone pushed open the door. "Old Fang, it's you." "It's not me, are you still waiting for someone else?" He winked. "This is not the time for joking, old Fang." "Poor Lu Yi, always like a frightened deer—eh." He lifted my face and looked at it. I clapped his hand, "what for?" "Go look in the mirror, quick." He pulled me to the mirror, pointed at the center of my eyebrows, "Do you see it?" "The metal piece is still dark red at the moment, just like a spark." Lao Fang said. I was dumbfounded. "Lu Yi, now you can tell me what this small piece of metal is and what it does." He said doubtfully. I was dumbfounded, and Fang Zhongxin would not believe it when I said it; I really don't know what role it has other than assisting in learning. "It aids memory." "Really?" Lao Fang didn't believe it at all, "Ah, really." I don't want to explain anymore, this has nothing to do with whether silence is gold or not, and it doesn't matter whether the truth will come out in the future, I just don't want to spend effort to say more, besides, I am worthy of my conscience. Lao Fang sighed, "Well, well, everyone has the right to keep his secret." Preconceived, he insisted that I have a secret. I rested my head on my hand, and didn't make a sound. "I hope you will reveal it to me in the future." He was helpless. Ask me to open my heart.I know he has done a lot for me, but this is not the time for me to open my heart to him.I still have a family at the other end of time, and the male host there also blamed me for not thinking wholeheartedly for him, so our relationship was on the verge of breaking down. I take a deep breath. "Don't worry about it anymore," Fang said, "I'm still your friend." "Why are you so nice to me?" "You do not know?" I shake my head. "Because you're stupid." Went to his. The doorbell rang quickly. I clapped my hands, "Ah, someone came to the door again." Old Fang's face changed color. "Old Fang," I said happily, "pay back the debt, June's debt, pay it quickly." "Don't answer the door," he said. I shook my head, "I can avoid it for a while, but I can't avoid it forever," The doorbell continued to ring loudly.His car was parked outside, and people who came knew that he was at home. "You avoid it." "Why, I am upright, why hide? They are your girlfriends, but I am not. What am I afraid of?" "Okay, if something goes wrong, don't blame me for not warning you." The old man went to open the door. I smelled a burst of fragrant wind, like orchids and musk deer, and I took a deep breath quickly. A girl with a round face rushed in and said loudly: "Brother, what the hell are you doing? The whole world says they can't find you. What are you doing hiding at home, hatching duck eggs?" When Lao Fang saw her, he was relieved. "Aren't you in love again?" The girl laughed hehehe, "You, a man who is always in love, really admire you." Lao Fang smiled and said, "Little sister, what are you talking about, come here, let me introduce someone to you." "Who?" The little girl turned her head and saw me, "Ah." She called out. Yeah, I lost my voice too. On her lapel, there is a diamond brooch pinned to her lapel. It is brilliant in crystal light and has a unique and elegant appearance. It is obviously a work of exquisite design. When I saw it, all the hairs on my body stood on end. This is my mother's favorite. The accessories are worn on the body every day, and they are inseparable. How did it happen to Lao Fang's little sister at this moment? No, no, the words should be turned around. Fifty years ago, it was originally an ornament of the old Fang's younger sister, and it fell into the hands of the mother several years later. "Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier? No wonder everyone is gone." Like her elder brother, the younger sister is a very enthusiastic person. I still can't take my eyes off the brooch. Lao Fang said: "Little sister, you and your big mouth." I tentatively asked, "Little sister is—" "He didn't mention me?" The younger sister shouted, "I am his cousin, my father and his father are two brothers, we have the same grandparents, and I also have the same surname Fang, I hold 20% of the shares in Fang's Sugar Factory." She clarified everything clearly. "It's a pleasure to meet you." I said. "Old Fang is not a bad person, he is just romantic, he—" "Sister, stop talking, okay?" He was afraid that she would become darker and darker. These two brothers and sisters are really a wonderful pair. "As soon as I saw you, I knew you were the right one," the little girl boldly took off the pin from her lapel, "Here, here it is, a greeting gift." I really want to get that brooch. I am destined to accept it. It will fall into my hands anyway, and I will pass it on to my mother. Time has proved this point. I reached out and took it. It is heavy and cold, shining in the palm of my hand. "Thank you." I said. Lao Fang said happily: "Little sister, I really don't see how generous you are, I will definitely make it up to you, and you," Lao Fang looked at me scratching my head, "I didn't expect you to accept it." The little girl smiled, "I like to be happy and happy. Life is so short, how can it be wasted? Time is precious." I was lost in thought.
