Chapter 37

"It's like joining a cult, it's scary! It's as if you have to die in a few minutes to apologize if you don't lose a few catties!"

"It's not so exaggerated, losing weight is a good thing." Wang Zhi said lazily.

"What exactly stimulated the leader?" Wei Jin asked, "Did you send him a good person card?"

"Friend card."

"..." Wei Jin sympathized with the running figure in the setting sun.

"I don't want to hang him with unnecessary hopes. A long-term pain is worse than a short-term pain. There is no way not to call, and I also want to enjoy the feeling of being single."

"This is really hateful." Wei Jin complained, but he was more happy for Wang Zhi, "Finally resurrected with full blood? I saw that you have started to engage in activities again these days."

"By the way, take the moral education points. By the way, have you completed all the moral education points this year?"

"It's over, if you don't tell me, I'll forget about it." Wei Jin became nervous, "I seem to be halfway there, is there still time?"

"Let me think about it. You should go to the nursing home. The Volunteer Association will organize one recently, and you can sign up freely. I heard that Shen Hai is going too. You can also call Luo Yu."

Wei Jin was silent for a while: "Luo Yu...I've exposed myself a few times recently, for fear that he might feel it."

Wang Zhi was amazed: "Aren't you just chasing him? If you don't let him feel it, what's the point of chasing him?"

Wei Jin hesitated and couldn't speak.Wang Zhi's phoenix eyes stared straight at him: "Wei Jin, no kidding, I think you should pierce the window paper. Otherwise, if you really become a good brother, you will never want to be anyone other than his brother in this life." gone."

-

The nursing home is in the suburbs, and the route is complicated. The Association arranged for a minibus to pick up everyone.Wei Jin walked to the meeting place, and the person in charge was a senior girl with short hair, standing outside the car door holding a small notebook for people to sign.There are more than [-] people sitting on the minibus, and there are no empty seats left together.Wei Jin didn't see Luo Yu when he got in the car, but Shen Hai waved to him, pointed to the empty seat next to him and said, "Come here."

Wei Jin sat next to Shen Hai: "Long time no see, President. Did you change your hairstyle?"

"Go back to fix it during the Chinese New Year." Shen Hai took out his phone and took a photo of himself, "Are you handsome?"

"...Handsome. So you met that rotten female pen pal?"

Shen Hai sighed, "Not yet."

Wei Jin was about to speak when he saw Luo Yu trotting into the car with his earphones on.When their eyes met, Wei Jin made a helpless expression, expressing his apology for not helping him get a seat.Luo Yu smiled, found an empty seat in the back row and sat down.Wei Jin's eyes followed the past, and his whole body froze.

Li Yi beside Luo Yu also froze for a moment, pulled his face and moved towards the window.

When Luo Yu turned his head, he realized that this was Wei Jin's roommate, but seeing that he was looking out the window with no intention of talking to him, he had to give up.

The minibus drove out of the school gate, and the acquaintances in the car started chatting in twos and threes.Shen Hai showed Wei Jin the chat records on his phone, and said in a low voice, "Azi will tell me even when my aunt is in pain. She almost regards me as a bosom sister."

"Have you two chatted for so long, and no one proposed to meet?" Wei Jin also asked in a very low voice.

"No. But she asked me for a photo, and I said I was ugly, so I didn't take pictures." Shen Hai put away his phone heavily, "My conscience is very condemned now. But I can only be myself when I chat with her, and That 'self' is too far from the appearance, no one can accept it..."

"You are worrying unfoundedly. How can you tell that she can't accept it if you hide it and don't confess it?" Wei Jin was in a daze when he said this.

Shen Hai was silent for a moment, his expression seemed to be brighter: "You're right." He patted Wei Jin, "Don't talk about me, what about you? You're right with that—"

Wei Jin suddenly raised his index finger against his lips to silence him, and after a few seconds, he quietly glanced back.

Luo Yu was wearing headphones and closing his eyes to rest, his head shaking slightly with the bumps of the car.Instead, Li Yi, who was chatting with someone on the back of the front seat, suddenly looked back.Wei Jin hastily looked away.

"You still say I'm worrying unfoundedly." Shen Hai said with a low smile.

-

"Two people, come to get the room number." The short-haired girl seemed to be experienced. After handing over the gift to the staff of the nursing home, she directed herself, "Go into the room and clean it. Put on a show and see what can help them. Meet at the gate in two hours."

Wei Jin looked up at Shen Hai, but Shen Hai waved his hands and mouthed, "Go." Wei Jin smiled gratefully at him, turned around and followed Luo Yu to get the assigned room number.

The nursing home is located in a remote place, but fortunately, the environment and facilities are passable.The building is new, and the room is very spacious, with four beds arranged side by side, but only two old men are staying in it at the moment.One of Luo Yu and Wei Jin was holding a broom and dustpan, and the other was holding a mop and rag. As soon as they entered the room, the old man sitting on the rattan chair by the window stood up with a smile, bent his back and shook hands with them: "Ouch, my little one!" Hello comrades."

"..." Wei Jin clicked his title.

The old man's beard and hair are white, and he greets people with a smile.The other one, who looked older, sat on the bed indifferently, squinted his eyes and wriggled his bark-like lips at them, muttered something, then turned his head away again.

"Don't pay attention to him, he has a bad temper, and it's not easy to work here when he's old." The old man tapped his temple with his index finger.

"Master, what are your surnames?" Luo Yu asked with a grin.

"My surname is Chen, his surname is Zhang."

Old man Chen is a talkative man, and Luo Yu sweeping the floor followed him and asked, "What do you study, comrade? Mathematics? Mathematics is good. I used to teach mathematics in elementary school, really."

Wei Jin wiped the window with a rag, listened to their casual chat, and accidentally bumped into someone, only to realize that the weird old man Zhang had come to his side at some point.Old man Zhang has shrunk in size due to his age, like a walnut that has been shelled.He was squinting at the window pane, getting so close that the tip of his nose was almost touching it.

"Uncle Zhang, what is this—?"

Old man Zhang's wrinkled lips moved, but his voice was forceful: "Check whether you wipe it clean."

"..." Wei Jin was speechless, and rubbed his head sullenly for a while, but old man Zhang didn't move from his nest, he just stared at that small area all the time.Wei Jin peeped out and suddenly realized that he was looking out the window.

There is a courtyard outside the window, and several fancy-dressed old ladies are dancing square dances with music playing in a corner of the courtyard.

Wei Jin secretly laughed that the old man was half buried in the ground, but he still couldn't die, and said: "I'm going to wipe the window over there, do you want to continue checking from a different angle?" followed.Wei Jin couldn't help laughing, feeling a vague sense of complicity, and deliberately slowed down his movements.

Old man Chen was still pulling Luo Yu to talk: "Why hasn't the little comrade talked about friends yet? The kids nowadays are really strange. That day there was a little lesbian who told me that she didn't want to talk about friends in her life. When I was your age, I married my lover It's a pity that she left early."

"You can still find another wife." Luo Yu said casually.Old man Chen waved his hands again and again: "I'm old, I'm old. Our sons and daughters are all watching, how can we do such a thing that can't be guaranteed at the end of the festival."

Old man Zhang snorted suddenly, turned around and walked away with his hands behind his back: "The window frame was not wiped clean."

After sweeping the floor and mopping again, the corners and corners were cleaned up, and it was still 10 minutes before the assembly time.Luo Yu and Wei Jin looked at each other, and the sound of boys singing "Unity is Strength" came from the next room.Luo Yu asked hesitantly: "Want to perform...?"

Before Wei Jin could answer, old man Chen clapped his hands happily: "Little comrades, let's sing a song!"

The uncle opened his mouth, so naturally he couldn't evade it.Luo Yu immediately sold Wei Jin: "I can't sing, but he can sing well."

"Senior! Don't bring you such a trick!"

"I really don't know how to sing. You see, I didn't even hold a mic in the KTV that day."

When it comes to KTV, both of them have unnatural expressions.Wei Jin cleared his throat hastily: "Then let me sing an old song I just learned in French class." He sang dryly, "Iles trevenule temps du muguet, comme unvie ilamire trouvé..."

The old man Zhang who was sitting on the bed suddenly asked: "Didn't you sing the night in the suburbs of Moscow? What lyrics are messed up."

"It's that tune, and I rewritten the lyrics in French." Wei Jinzheng felt ashamed to sing solo, and took the opportunity to encourage him, "Uncle Zhang, can you sing with me? But I don't remember the Chinese lyrics clearly."

"Okay." Old man Zhang agreed without hesitation, stood up lucky, and opened his mouth, "Late at night in the garden, everything is quiet-quiet-quiet-" Wei Jin hurriedly stumbling to keep up.

Old man Zhang beat the time with the soles of his feet, and sang loudly on his own, completely overwhelming Wei Jin.At this moment, a grandma who was dancing in the yard just now walked by the door and greeted them.The old man Zhang's voice was like a bell, and he dragged his breath for an extremely long time, his face flushed: "My sweetheart is sitting beside me, watching me silently..."

Wei Jin simply shut up and let him play to his heart's content.The grandma heard the singing, turned her head to take a look, and walked away smiling again.

"I want to speak, but I don't know how to say it, how many words to keep in my heart--" Old man Zhang lowered his voice, and managed to finish the song.Old man Chen laughed loudly: "Why do you say you are bothering?"

Old man Zhang became angry from embarrassment, and waved at Luo Yu and Wei Jin: "Let's go, goodbye!"

After leaving the room, Luo Yu couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect that the life of the elderly can be so... colorful."

Wei Jin didn't say anything.He saw himself in old man Zhang's face like a shelled walnut, and felt sad.

"I don't know if he can confess to that grandma before he goes to the grave." Luo Yu said again.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the heart. This sentence aroused amazing echoes in Wei Jin's mind.His face changed all of a sudden, and he looked at Luo Yu in a daze - he still couldn't understand how much Luo Yu had seen through.
