lion in august

Yan Banxia sometimes thinks that she is very strange. When she is like a string tensed, she is completely fine. When she relaxes completely, old friends who are sick and sick will happily come to her door.

This time, an old friend whom I haven’t seen for a long time—Waijiao came to my door.

Yan Banxia injured her right ankle before going abroad. Shortly after she went abroad, she fell on the ground and twisted her left ankle. Although she would receive physical therapy at least twice a year and go to Eight Avenues for bone setting, the injured ankle ligament was always Hidden danger.

Yan Banxia remembered the first time he sprained his ankle, his parents were so worried that they took him to a nearby hospital. The doctor in the emergency room was probably in a hurry to change shifts, so he said perfunctorily that the bruise was just like this, anyway, the bruise would dissipate in a few days anyway , If the pain is really unbearable, just take an injection to relieve the pain.

Usually it is enough to go to the hospital to register for emergency treatment for minor illnesses and pains, but Tieda has never encountered it.So my parents asked people everywhere, and a colleague recommended to go to the Tieda Medical Center in an alley. There were quite a lot of people queuing up, and the medicine smelled strong, so it should be reliable.

The doctor at Tieda Medical Center said it was bone-setting, and Yan Banxia felt as if she had killed her.

The doctor took the lighted wormwood and smoked Yan Banxia's right ankle. Not long after, he moved the small stool that creaked when he sat down and sat down in front of Yan Banxia, ​​and lifted her feet on his knees. Knead back and forth with rough fingertips.

Before Yan Banxia could see the doctor's technique clearly, her right ankle suddenly felt severe pain, and when she recovered, she had already applied the boiled herbal medicine.The doctor told her not to get wet in the bath at night, and it took 24 hours before she could pick off the herbs. Her muscles and bones were hurt for a hundred days, and she seldom used her right foot as a support point when walking recently.

Yan Banxia rubbed her temples with a headache. She used to suffer from pain in the iron medicine clinic in China, and it will also hurt when she goes to the iron medicine clinic on Eighth Avenue tomorrow.

"You said you, there is such a big hole in the ground, and your myopia has deepened?"

Yan Banxia turned away guiltily, and stammered, "No, no."

Si Nanxing took the ice pack, walked into the bedroom rambling, and mercilessly threw the ice pack on Yan Banxia's left ankle, making her grin from the cold.

"I just didn't see the way clearly for a while, why don't I call the doctor immediately and make an appointment tomorrow." Yan Banxia stretched out two fingers, narrowed his eyes with a smile, and pinched Si Nanxing's clothes with his fingers flatteringly Gently tugged. "May I go back to my own place to sleep tonight?"

"No talk."

"But you don't have my toothbrush and towel at home."

"I have new toothbrushes and towels at home." Si Nanxing flicked her forehead, and then breathed out distressedly while rubbing it. "Your foot is as swollen as a pig's trotter. If you want to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, why don't you jump to it?"

Yan Banxia imagined the scene of her jumping around the room in the middle of the night in the dark, which was a bit scary.

The spring rain is continuous, from the evening of yesterday to the early morning of today. After the sound of spring thunder, the gentle rain becomes heavier in an instant.

Si Nanxing was awakened by the sound of rain, so he got out of bed lightly, closed the bedroom window first, and then ran to close the living room and kitchen windows, especially the living room, where there was Yan Banxia's sketchbook. Wet.

It's not that Si Nanxing is boasting, but Yan Banxia's cooking skills are very good. After eating Yan Banxia's meal again after six years, she suddenly felt that the noodles she made to chase Yan Banxia back were all Toy.

In recent days, Yan Banxia has serialized cute and funny fruit and vegetable stories on Weibo, but in March, the studio has received a lot of manuscripts, both of them are busy, and after work, they are too tired, so they simply finish dinner outside and go home directly After taking a shower and going to bed, the two of them haven't cooked for a long time.

Si Nanxing, who had returned to the bed, lay down on his side, propped his chin, stared at Yan Banxia tenderly, and said in his heart that if she didn't go to bone-setting later, she really wanted to do Yan Banxia.

Gradually, the rain stopped, and the sky in the east turned pale. As if defeated, Si Nanxing kissed Yan Banxia hard on the lips and let her go. He patted his forehead with a smile, reminding himself to be more awake, and then Go to the bathroom to brush your teeth and wash your face.

Waking up in a daze, Yan Banxia touched the glasses on the bedside table and put them on. She jumped up suddenly after seeing the water droplets on the window. Before she had time to cushion her eyes and got up in a hurry, she hurriedly got down. Not only did she find it, she also knocked her thumb, which caused her to lose her voice for a moment. She sat on the ground and held her thumb, looking up at Si Nanxing who came out of the bathroom with tears in her eyes.

Si Nanxing put his hands on his hips in displeasure, and was about to teach her a lesson, but she admitted her mistake first with a soft voice.Si Nanxing sighed resignedly, she knelt down, rubbed Yan Banxia's thumb that had just been knocked with her warm fingers, wrapped her in her arms, and carried her back to the bed.

"Why, you disliked that your left ankle didn't hurt enough, so you knocked your right thumb in a hurry as soon as you woke up?"

"The sketchbook in the living room! The story of fruits and vegetables!" Yan Banxia twitched anxiously in Si Nanxing's arms, "My sketchbook is in your living room! The sketchbook has a draft of the story of fruits and vegetables drawn! It's raining!"

"Little daredevil, or a little snooze." Si Nanxing bit the tip of her nose, and gently pecked her lips. "The rain stopped, and I closed the living room window long ago. Your sketchbook is fine. It will be too late to close the window after you wake up, you stupid pig."

"Really?" When Yan Banxia is happy, the end of her speech will unconsciously playfully turn up, and she will move around happily.

Si Nanxing, who had finally put away the idea of ​​"doing Yan Banxia", held her down patiently, and said in a low voice: "Come down, go brush your teeth and wash your face, and after breakfast we will go to Eight Avenues, and you can relieve your back pain by the way." Read it too."

Yan Banxia slowly brushed his teeth and washed his face, slowly ate breakfast, and then slowly went back to his home to change clothes.

Si Nanxing knew that she was obsessed with cleanliness, so he just waited for her at the door, watching her amusedly walking around as if in slow motion, and then peeked at the decorations in her living room. There was only a long red and black color table and The pure black wooden chair is too simple, except for the messy manuscripts on the long table, it can be seen that this room is angry that someone lives there.

"Hurry up, your appointment is 10:9, and it's already [-]:[-], didn't you say that the Eighth Avenue is prone to traffic jams, we have to go out early." Si Nanxing chuckled and said, "Don't be slow on purpose Yes, even if you are late today, I will sit there with you and wait. You have to straighten your bones. Your feet are swollen into pig’s feet, and your waist. Recently, the studio is busy, and as soon as I sit down, I start designing It's been a few hours without moving, didn't you say that your back hurts every day, and you hurt everywhere?"

"I said it hurts to be coquettish with you." Yan Banxia muttered, "It's not interesting."

"Didn't you come to act like a baby with me because you were in pain?" Si Nanxing helped her close the door of the apartment, and helped her walk slowly to the elevator. "Just be honest, does your waist hurt?"

"...Yes." Yan Banxia was lazy in Sinanxing's arms, and said in a soft voice, "Can we go to the bone setting in a few days? Maybe in a few days, my waist will not hurt, and my legs and feet will not hurt." It’s also neat.”

"Only your pig's trotters are still thinking about the pain in your waist and the sharpness of your legs, and then run up to the fifth floor in one breath?" There was no one in the elevator, Si Nanxing turned sideways to block the monitoring, and held Yan Banxia's face Boomed loudly. "You have memorized the ad words well, this is a reward."

Yan Banxia wiped Si Nanxing's saliva with the back of his hand in disgust. "If the reward is that I don't go to the bone setting today, it will be the same. The bone setting is really painful."

Si Nanxing noticed that Yan Banxia didn't take out the alcohol hand sanitizer to rub his hands, and couldn't help showing a gratified smile, full of emotion that "my little girl has just grown up". "My Xia Xia has finally taken a big step to change, Xia Xia has grown up."

"Did you eat too much breakfast, you were so angry, you wanted to sleep, so you were talking nonsense." Yan Banxia dissatisfiedly rewarded Si Nanxing with a weak elbow, and proudly rubbed the tip of his nose with his thumb . "I'm your sister, come on, call your sister and listen."

"Why can't I understand Chinese all of a sudden?"

"You pig." Yan Banxia scolded with a smile.

The two came to the parking lot after arguing and fighting. Originally, Yan Banxia wanted to take the subway to the Eighth Avenue, because the Eighth Avenue is always full of people, not to mention that today is Saturday, there must be a traffic jam.But Si Nanxing still insisted on driving there. She meant that since there must be more people on Saturday, there might not be any seats in the subway car. She didn't want Yan Banxia to squeeze the subway with others after bone setting.

It is worth mentioning that Yan Banxia wore flip-flops for the convenience of applying medicine to his ankles.

"Driving from Manhattan to Brooklyn, it's a lot more gas and parking—"

"If you're going to wear flip flops on the subway, I'm fine with that."

"How cheap is the gas and parking! Of course we have to drive there!"

Si Nanxing is well aware of the pain points of cleanliness in the New York subway. Of course, this is why she seldom wears flip-flops when going out. She once said that she once threw away a pair of canvas shoes that had been worn for less than a month. , because she stepped on something dirty at the subway station, but fortunately she was wearing canvas shoes. If it was sandals or flip flops, she probably would have soaked her feet.

Yan Banxia connected to the Bluetooth in the car, and was singing with insufficiency all the way. If she sang seriously, it would be very pleasant. Si Nanxing rubbed her ears, which were constantly being attacked by the magic voice, and silently remembered that she would change her words when she was nervous. Or the habit of singing.

"Aren't you going to sing along?"

Stopping at the intersection of traffic lights, Sinanxing tilted his head and looked at Yan Banxia dotingly. Yan Banxia got excited and pulled Sinanxing's arm, looked at Sinanxing, and then at the car's Bluetooth, suggesting picks eyebrow.

Si Nanxing begged for mercy and said let her go, Yan Banxia sang randomly on purpose, but she was really tone deaf.

"If I take you to sing, it won't go out of tune. Didn't you perform "Eyelash Crooked" at the New Year's Day performance in the second year of junior high school?"

"You will also say that it is a performance, as long as you dance, and we were not the only two on stage in the second year of junior high school." Si Nanxing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, looked up at the traffic lights, and gently pushed his arms away and wanted to go to her Yan Banxia relies on her body. "Let's drive, don't make trouble."

Yan Banxia made a face at Si Nanxing, and sat down obediently.

The bluetooth in the car is still randomly playing the songs downloaded by Yan Banxia's mobile phone, and the crisp piano prelude is played, and the drums and guitar accompaniment are slowly added to the second lyric.

Yan Banxia held the phone by her mouth and pretended to be a microphone, smiling. "I'm not making trouble, I'll sing for you seriously."

"Are you sure you are singing seriously?"

"Sure." Yan Banxia was a little nervous after not singing in front of Si Nanxing for a long time, and took several deep breaths, just in time for the first chorus. "I didn't find my smiling eyes until I left you, and shed tears, like a storm I couldn't hide from. I deleted it when I was wet, and I found my smiling eyes only after I left you. When I see you again, I will definitely let myself , let yourself decide."

Yan Banxia deliberately sang the wrong lyrics twice, Si Nanxing's heart moved when he heard it, thinking that today might be the day to put the ring on.

"Okay, I won't sing you a bitter love song. Today's weather is good and I'm in a good mood." Yan Banxia chose a song on his phone, and sang it swaying from side to side. "If your side is not far away from the sky, how does courage appear? When I finally live in your heart and share the same world, I miss the pain and the long plot becomes sweeter. Only I understand this feeling of happiness. It is so beautiful that it is worth going. Giving everything to be able to meet you, to know you, to like you, to fall in love with you, thank you for every tear.”

"Nowadays, the children are singing the Divine Comedy. You are showing your age, Xia Xia."

"Think I'm old?" Yan Banxia poked Si Nanxing's side face forcefully. "Then you're still smiling so happily."

"Xia Xia sings beautifully. I like to listen to anything Xia Xia sings."

Then, the car bluetooth happily played the prelude to "Curved Eyelashes". Si Nanxing let out a long sigh and complained dissatisfiedly that Yan Banxia insisted on uncovering her black history in the second year of junior high school. Yan Banxia raised her hands innocently, It is conclusive to say that she did not choose a song, it was indeed played randomly.

Si Nanxing, a sophomore in junior high school, felt uncomfortable wearing a skirt, so he also put on school pants before going on stage.

The other students all wore dreamy princess tutu skirts. Because the New Year’s Day performance was in winter, the white high socks in the MV were replaced with white boots. He tucked his trousers into his white boots bulgingly.

"Okay, okay, I'll change the song." So Yan Banxia happily opened his never-ending playlist, one song after another, with different styles but nice, all songs by the same male singer. "I took a light taste of the love you said to me, and I was still reminiscing about the tenderness you gave me. I took a light taste of this fragrant temptation. You have everything I like... No prize quiz, I am the first The first time I heard Jay Chou’s song was in the third grade of elementary school, may I ask, which Jay Chou’s song did I listen to for the first time?”

"Can it be replaced with a prize-winning quiz, otherwise there will be no motivation to guess correctly."

Yan Banxia curled her lips, and said disapprovingly: "You are so confident that you can guess right? If you guess right, how about I dance "Eyelash Crooked" for you when my feet are better?"

"It's a deal." Si Nanxing leisurely turned the steering wheel with one hand, turned into the street where the Tieda Medical Center is located, and said firmly, "Qilixiang. I remember watching the "Eyelash Curved" MV a lot recently. If the dance steps are wrong, I will Let you jump again."

"... Sinanxing, you are not a lion, you are a fox, right?"
