Cupid winks

The flower and fruit basket are not for me, but for Feng Fangfang.

"He brought you Din Tai Fung to eat." Xiuxiu said.

I stroked her hair and said, "He has lunch with someone else at noon. That person has to catch a plane and go back to Germany. That person doesn't like waste, so he pretends that he doesn't like waste, but he doesn't eat packed things. Bring it to me to eat."

"Then he can pretend he doesn't like waste, pack it up and throw it away secretly."

"Yeah, I'm his trash can."

Xiuxiu sat up, supported the bed with one hand, and looked at me angrily: "Why do you say that about yourself?" She raised her eyebrows, still angry, "Do you like him?"

"Who?"

Ye Haowen?

Xiuxiu opened her mouth, but didn't continue.Her lips were drawn into a line and she looked away.

I said, "I don't have to pay to go out with him."

Xiuxiu laughed and said, "No wonder those with canine teeth always call you an iron rooster."

"That's Xiaobao."

She nodded.

"They're all my roommates."

Xiuxiu said: "Those who can be roommates are better than friends. Friends can't even be friends if they live together for a long time. Don't couples who have been married for a long time also become roommates?"

I said, "Then there are four of us, is it a bigamy or a plural family?"

Xiuxiu laughed, looked at my plaster leg, touched it for a long time, took a stick of lipstick and began to paint on it.I asked her, "What do you draw?"

She said, "Snow."

She blinked her right eye at me, fell silent, and after a while, she hummed softly, humming while drawing: "Snow piece by piece..."

After drawing a few snowflakes, she didn't want that lipstick anymore and threw it away.

Xiaobao and the others also nicknamed Xiuxiu in private: Miss.Xiaobao usually likes to read fashion magazines, and quietly told me that Xiuxiu’s tattered-looking bag costs 2 yuan, and that pair of ordinary-looking shoes costs 1 yuan.He also came to learn from me, asking me which temple I usually go to pray to gods and Buddhas, or which astrologer's column I read, which set of Feng Shui theories I study, and how I know so many young ladies.

I don’t know, maybe I’m looking for what I’m missing. These young masters and ladies are poor, so they hunt for poverty all day long. The poorer the better, the more miserable it is, the perfect.I dreamed one day that Xiuxiu took me to her home for a New Year’s Eve dinner. Her mother was a bottle of French champagne with a pink and blue ribbon, and her father was a Cuban cigar with smoke on her head. There are also younger brothers and sisters, older brothers and sisters, and the whole family surrounded me with stars and moons.They scooped up my flesh with their silver spoons.

Of course, this is just my dream. Xiuxiu never took me to her house. Instead, after I was discharged from the hospital, she came to our dormitory to report every now and then—she insisted on sending me out of the hospital, insisting on sending me home, saying that it was fine. After I was discharged from the hospital, she also had to implement the one-on-one support policy. She had to write a report to her superiors. She had to visit home three times a week until I recovered.Usually she comes during the day, and every time she comes, she has to leave some of her things in the dormitory, such as pajamas, facial cleanser, hair conditioner, face cream and lotion. He complained that he had no privacy at all, and he still had a slight obsession with cleanliness. Xiuxiu was always wearing slippers, either biting a cigarette or eating potato chips, walking around with a bottle of beer in her hand. .Xiao Bao always followed her to pick up cigarette butts, potato chip shards, pick up this one and that one.

Later, Xiuxiu asked Xiaobao to use her face cream, her facial cleanser, her perfume, and her ring. She wore Xiaobao's blue and white slippers, covered his quilt, ate his jelly and shredded squid, They watched "The Secret Detective Zero Zero Hair" broadcast on the movie station, and their noses and tears burst into tears.Xiaobao said: "Ah Fa is so miserable, the more he laughs, the more I want to cry." Xiuxiu said: "This is the comedy version of "Married Life". The Civil Affairs Bureau should play it on a loop every day."

Later, she brought a DVD of "Married Life" to play. Less than 5 minutes into the movie, Xiaobao fell asleep. After 10 minutes into the movie, Xiuxiu also fell asleep. I wanted to sleep too, but couldn't. They A person leaning against me, grunting one after another, I was not moving, I tried to watch the movie with concentration, but I couldn’t understand a word of what the hero and heroine said, and the subtitle translation was also confusing, and my mind was distracted from time to time , it is more difficult to devote yourself once your mind is distracted.I just sat and waited for the movie to finish and for them to wake up.

Xiaobao is five years younger than me, and Xiuxiu is two years younger than me. They are like my brother and sister.

Xiuxiu knew that four people in our dormitory worked at the same place. During a dinner party, she asked us what we did.

I said, "Craftsmen."

Xiaobao said: "Eat according to your ability."

S said: "You guys eat, I still have something to do."

He He said, "Then save some for you in the refrigerator."

Xiuxiu used our small kitchen to make thirteen-flavored crayfish, and the fragrance wafted ten miles away. We drank beer together, ate crayfish, gnawed duck necks, peeled peanuts, and our hands were full of the smell of spices.

Xiuxiu said: "Oh, then you are also artists."

Xiaobao said: "Yes, yes, we are all important intangible cultural heritage inheritors."

We all laughed, God knows where Xiaobao got this title.He only watched movies and TV series while watching TV. The news gave him a headache. He didn't read newspapers or books. He just flipped through fashion magazines in the lounge and "Friends" in the toilet.He said he can learn a lot from other people's life stories.

Xiuxiu asked: "Then can I visit your studio?"

I said: "It is still very important to maintain a sense of mystery in the communication between people."

Xiuxiu pinched my arm, pretending to be angry: "It is also very important to be honest with each other when communicating with others."

Hearing this, Xiaobao let out a strange cry, put his hands across his chest, and stared wide-eyed: "Xiuxiu! What do you want to do to us!"

He He did the same thing, imitating Xiao Bao's voice, and said sternly: "It's illegal for a woman to rape a man!"

Xiuxiu threw peanuts at them, gritted her teeth, twitched her lips, and asked us, "Then, would you like to visit my studio?"

It was daytime, the sky was sunny and the temperature was right, but no one agreed.Only I went.I have my disability as a disguise, and I can briefly act outside during the day, during the day.

Xiuxiu is really an artist. She has her own studio, which is very big. It is on the opposite bank, in a prime location, surrounded by bank buildings, and everyone who walks there feels windy at their feet.Xiuxiu was still wearing Xiaobao's slippers, which were much bigger. She dragged along the road, crossed the road draggedly, and walked into her studio draggingly.She has no assistants or partners, and the studio is not well decorated. It is empty, except for some canvas paints and plaster figures. There is a large mirror in the studio, which looks like a dance classroom.

Xiuxiu told me: "This used to be a ballet classroom, but then the teacher quit, and I..."

She paused, put down her bag, took off her coat, tiptoed in front of the mirror, looked at me in the mirror, and asked me, "Do you want to watch me dance?"

I found a chair and sat down.

She found a pair of flat shoes and put them on, stood in front of the mirror and put her legs together, her heels were close together, and her feet were in a straight line. She moved her wrists and neck, and said: "I used to go to an art school, The kind for amateurs, there was a reporting performance, my cousin and I danced this..."

""Apollo". Tell the story of Apollo and his sister Artemis. Let's reverse the story and I will play Apollo." Her feet stood up on the ground, standing on tiptoe, and after a few seconds, she stood up again. Reverting to the standing position with the soles of her feet, she seemed to be warming up with this action. After repeating it a few times, she raised her legs, raised her hands, raised her head, and raised her eyes very high and far away.She took a crown of laurel leaves from the void and placed it gently on top of her head.Every finger of hers was tense.She starts dancing.

She dances ballet, standing on tiptoe, kicking, sliding quickly on the ground, squatting half-squat, circling in one direction, changing center of gravity, swinging from side to side, like a plant with flexible stems in the strong wind flower.

I know this dance step, this movement, called Balance.The French word is balance, which is exactly the same as the English balance.

Who told me that?It should be Ye Haowen, it must be him.It can't be Sun Yu. I have known Sun Yu for more than two months.

4.

In May, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. There is only one air conditioner in the dormitory, which is installed in the sleeping room. We are full of nocturnal animals. During the day, we are either sleeping on the bed or playing games on the mobile phone. When the weather is hot, we are reluctant to take a step In an air-conditioned room, even eating is done by finding a small table in the room and setting up dishes and chopsticks.Xiuxiu couldn't stay in the room, and the living room was too hot. There was an electric fan, but all the air was blown out, and the more it was blowing, the hotter it was. The kitchen was like a big steamer. Xiuxiu went on strike after cooking once. She is also very particular, she doesn’t eat takeaway, so she drags me out all day long, but she also wants to drag other people with her, every time she goes out, she has to yell several times, go to restaurants, go to eat ice cream, go to the movies, go to the supermarket, she She pays the bill, and she treats guests, but no matter how much the price is increased, no one will answer, only me—I don’t want to answer, I don’t want to go out, I would rather stay in the room and read, take a nap, and be in a daze, but my legs and feet are handicapped, and I am inconvenient to move. People are inconvenient and don't know how to refuse.Xiuxiu got me a wheelchair. I was in a wheelchair, and she pushed me to restaurants, parks, theaters, and even took me to art exhibitions and plays.At first I thought she didn't let me use crutches because I thought I was walking slowly with crutches,
