Rebirth alone

"That's it." Ye Tao explained the cause and effect without much effort. Seeing him frowning and saying nothing, he seemed to be skeptical, and Ye Tao's eyes that were always indifferent seemed a little cold, "Don't worry, I won't provoke you." Your nephew, before I leave the Zhou family, I will not cause you any trouble."

The lights on the rooftop were not very bright, but Zhou Ziqian could still see the emotion in his eyes.Zhou Ziqian was stung, how could Ye Tao take revenge on him?If he hadn't had to, Ye Tao wouldn't want to see him, wishing to see him for nothing.

"It's okay, I'll go down first." Ye Tao didn't have the good physique to accompany him to blow the night breeze, and he really didn't want to pay attention to him, fearing that if he couldn't control his temper, he would make himself ill again.

"I'm sorry..." Zhou Ziqian hesitated to speak, his eyes were full of painful entanglement.He should keep his mouth shut now, because he is no longer qualified to say anything to Ye Tao, but he is afraid that if he doesn't say it, everything will be gone.Ye Tao's friendship and patience with him are running out. The reason why he didn't leave is because his father is seriously ill. Once the old man leaves, Ye Tao will cut off all ties with him and the Zhou family without hesitation.He was afraid of such an ending, he was afraid that this person whom he loved and owed so much would completely disappear in his life.

Ye Tao paused, and sighed, "Every time you say these three words, I will suffer. Either I am injured or I am sick. Instead of apologizing to me, it is better to let me suffer less."

Zhou Ziqian felt pain in his heart, and his voice became more and more dry: "It won't happen in the future, you... can you stay? I swear I won't bother you, I just want to take care of you, as long as you live in that house, at least ..."

Ye Tao had already gone downstairs, Zhou Ziqian was the only one left on the huge rooftop.

The tall figure stayed in place lonely, whispering hoarsely: "At least let me know you're there."

Less than ten seconds after Ye Tao knocked on the door, Zhou Yunyang opened the door. The young man who had been sleeping in a vest and shorts before was fully dressed, with a worried and apologetic expression on his face.

"I'm sorry, I fell asleep." Zhou Yunyang blamed himself very much. Seeing that Ye Tao wanted to get a water glass, he took a glass of water and handed it to him, and said, "Uncle already knew about our affairs, I didn't follow up just now Afraid of adding fuel to the flames, it’s not for you to deal with uncle yourself. He didn’t scold you, did he? He’s so angry now, he probably won’t listen to anything. I’ll explain to him later. Don’t worry, I’ll do it anyway. You won't be wronged."

"I've made it clear." Ye Tao drank two sips of water and said lightly, "Sleep, I have to go to the hospital tomorrow morning."

Ye Tao put down his water glass and went into the bedroom, and Zhou Yunyang went in after a while.The overhead light in the room was turned off, and Ye Tao sat on the bed with his clothes on, turning on the desk lamp on his side to look at his mobile phone.Just after the torment, he couldn't fall asleep for a short time.

"I don't sleep well, you can sleep in the bedroom, I'll go to the living room for the night." Zhou Yunyang said while tidying up the quilt and pillows.

Ye Tao gave a light "hmm" noncommittally, without taking his eyes off the phone.

Zhou Yunyang really regretted not cherishing him before, and he never forgot his little lover.But in his memory and dreams, the little lover is not what he is in front of him, he is cute, easy to understand, happy and lonely are written in his eyes, although there are not many smiles, but when he smiles, he is very bright, his eyes are clear and bright, Like little stars in the night sky.The person in front of him is always as indifferent as water, neither close nor close to others, and there is no barrier with him, but it is also a barrier that is difficult to eliminate.To be honest, even if this kind of Yunxi allowed him to approach, he didn't have the urge to hold him in his arms and be intimate.

Everyone didn't sleep well that night. Ye Tao started to feel drowsy when he was staring at his mobile phone. He didn't fall asleep until dawn. He was half dreaming and half awake. On the night, he couldn't stretch his hands and feet, and his heart was dull; Zhou Ziqian didn't go back to his room all night. He smoked all the cigarettes on the rooftop, and then fell asleep on the chair in the night breeze.

Sitting together for breakfast the next day, Zhou Ziqian coughed non-stop, his sore throat was hard to swallow, and Huoya, who had been angry before, became even more violent.Ye Tao ate his share of the meal, and never looked at the side where the coughing sound came from the beginning to the end.Zhou Ziqian knew that Ye Tao would bring medicine with him when he went out, but Xiaocheng didn't bring the medicine until he left the hotel.So he understood that Ye Tao would rather be misunderstood as being coy and hypocritical than to provoke himself with caring actions, even if it was a look or a few pills.

Uncle Yang bought medicine for Zhou Ziqian. Knowing that he thought he was nagging, he couldn't help telling him a few words: "I asked Doctor A, and he said that you are angry because you are busy. You must take the medicine on time. You Don't just ignore it when you're busy. You can't be sick at this festival, and the company at home is counting on you to take care of it."

Zhou Ziqian knew which was more important. He took the medicine on time, and if he couldn't eat enough, he would drink a few more bowls of nourishing soup, or take some chewable tablets.

Mr. Zhou hanged his breath, he was already in a coma, but he seemed to know what was going on outside, and he didn't let go until Zhou Ziqian smoothed out the company's affairs and rescued the old man who had suffered a lot. this world.

Mr. Zhou has been in business all his life, and he is flexible in the business field, but he is conservative in other matters.Mrs. Zhou's funeral was handled according to the old rules, and the old man's funeral was also handled in the same way.

The Zhou family built a coffin, and the screen door was wide open.The body is not cremated, and the coffin is put into the coffin for a day of mourning. An altar is placed in front of the spirit, and a ten-year lamp is lit.The filial sons and grandsons, Xuansang and plain silk, knelt on both sides of the coffin.Elegant couplets were hung outside the mourning hall, the sound of Buddha was heard, and there was an endless stream of relatives and friends mourning.

After the three-day wake, there was a big funeral. The mourning team never forgot the end, and a high and heavy "wake up" aroused buzzing cries.The coffin was out of the door, there should have been road sacrifices from various families, but it is rare to hold a funeral like this every year, and the red tape that is too out of date can only be passed by.

Even so, it takes a lot of effort to organize a funeral, and two of my family members fell ill after the funeral.When the family members worked hard for many days, they had already started to feel angry. As soon as the work was done, the internal heat came up. They had fever and cough for several days in a row, and stomach problems followed.Ye Tao was caught in the wind while guarding the spirit, and he was also dizzy and had a fever.Because the grave will be rounded up three days later, and after that, it will be seven days, so the sickly Ye Tao didn't bother to make a fuss, and stayed at Zhou's house for the time being.

Zhou Ziqian was infusing in the room, and Zhou Shuma was taking care of her beside the bed, and Guan Jinshang came to visit from time to time.Ye Tao's side was filled with bowls of decoctions. His mouth felt bitter and he lost his appetite. The porridge and soup he sent were all eaten by spoonfuls. He ate five spoonfuls in the last meal and seven spoonfuls in this meal.Seeing Ye Tao eating made Xiaocheng feel aggrieved enough, wishing he could give half of his good appetite to him.

Ah Qing told Ye Tao that there is no nutrition in the medicine, so if you want to get better as soon as possible, you need to eat more.Ye Tao couldn't eat, so Ah Qing tried to coax him.Ye Tao often put down the bowls and chopsticks, and Ah Qing held them in his hand.

"Drink another spoonful, let's make it together, okay?" Ah Qing held the porridge bowl in one hand and the spoon in the other, and gently tapped Ye Tao's mouth with the tip of the spoon, "Open your mouth, ah~"

Xiaocheng looked at Ye Tao, listened to Ah Qing's words, and said involuntarily: "Ah~"

Ye Tao didn't even want to lift his uncomfortable eyelids, but just made them laugh: "Fourth brother, don't speak like that, I want to call you mom when you talk like that."

Ah Qing's eyes were quick, and he sent the porridge spoon in while he opened his mouth. When he frowned slightly and rolled the porridge into his mouth, Ah Qing took another spoonful and brought it to his mouth, and promised solemnly: "As long as you take this bowl After eating the porridge, the fourth brother will be the fourth mother from now on."

Swallowing the perilla porridge that couldn't taste the original taste, Ye Tao said weakly: "Xiaocheng, help me to order a plaque. I want to give it to Dr. A, and the inscription is 'Benevolence and Kindness'."

Ah Qing let out a sigh of relief: "Scared me, I thought you were going to ask 'fourth mother auspicious'."

Ye Tao was amused by him again, but it's not a joke to praise him for his benevolence and benevolence. Ah Qing deserves these four words.

The lightly smiling words spread out, and the room turned into a cane binding feet. Zhou Ziqian stood in front of the door, paused for a few times in mid-air with his hand to pick up the door curtain, and finally let it go.

Uncle Zhou came out to find Zhou Ziqian with his buzzing mobile phone. He thought he was upset about the infusion and came out for a walk, but he saw him sitting in the living room smoking a cigarette.

After answering the call, the cigarette in Zhou Ziqian's hand was already burned out. He crushed out the cigarette butt, leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes wearily: "I'm tired. As long as it's not about the company, you can just look at the arrangement." good."

Uncle Zhou should be, and took a blanket to cover him.After leaving with the sound of footsteps, Uncle Zhou called Guan Jinshang and said politely and apologetically that Zhou Ziqian was going out in the afternoon and asked Guan Jinshang to come back another day.

The author has something to say:

Some babies may think that Zhou's family is too pretentious in holding a funeral like this. In fact, it doesn't matter whether they are pretending or not. The funeral is the last and most important ceremony of a person. Other than premature death.Up to now, our hometown also holds funerals for the elderly in the same way, setting up coffins, pasting paper, inviting theater troupes, setting up water seats, and it is very lively.Firecrackers and paper money were set off all the way during the funeral, let alone the three-circuit ceremony. Anyway, it was a great effort to cause trouble for the uncles and aunts who were sweeping the streets, but no one cared or complained (not in a remote mountain village, at the border of Beijing and Tianjin) Almost all counties and towns are like this, and you can occasionally see coffins in the city, isn’t it incredible?) Nephews and grandchildren still have to pay rewards to the people who carry the tomb, which is called Wenzhong. Now it has been pulled by a hearse, and the corpse has to be cremated. The ashes are held in the coffin, but the money has to be given, three hundred and five hundred is less, and if the conditions are good, thousands of dollars will be given. If not, people will say, in a word, the funeral is the sadness and hard work of the family. Outsiders can see It's lively, why not there is an old saying that you can't be afraid of a big funeral when you see the funeral? (Falling down means dying.)
