between heartstrings

Chu Jiahe had only seen Ban Yue in photos, and although he hadn't had the chance to meet him, he was impressed by this woman with a friendly face and excellent temperament after just one glance.After listening to Wei Sizhe's words, Chu Jiahe finally understood that the tenderness and maturity in Wei Sizhe's bones came from a harmonious family, which also reflected the success of a pair of parents.

Chu Jiahe thought lightly: "No wonder."

After getting off the highway, Wei Sizhe turned off the high beams, turned the steering wheel to the left and went to the side road: "What?"

"No wonder the old man is so infatuated with the class teacher." Chu Jiahe said, "Just from this incident, you can imagine what kind of person she is."

Wei Sizhe smiled and said, "My dad is a lover."

"My mother is the pillar of the family and my father's spiritual support. When she passed away the year before last, my father was ill for a week and was almost admitted to the intensive care unit. As long as he misses my mother a little less, his body will not What's the matter?"

Chu Jiahe looked at him: "The old man is in good condition now."

"That's the appearance he pretended to give me." Wei Sizhe shook his head, "He's pretending to be serious, and never shows his true emotions on his face. My dad doesn't want to be a burden to me. I can't always fight against him. You can't help but follow him."

Chu Jiahe recalled that what Wei Qiao did the most was wearing reading glasses and reading "Spring Tea Notes" handwritten by Ban Yue quietly.The pages of the paper have been torn, as dry and wrinkled as the skin on the back of his hand, but he still enjoys it, looking for the past time in his lover's handwriting and words.

"I will stick to one person all my life, live a worry-free life, have no disease, and live a peaceful and stable life." Chu Jiahe murmured to himself, "It's really good."

Wei Sizhe turned a familiar road into the parking lot, and in front of his vision was the towering gate of the nursing home.After turning off the engine, there was sudden silence around, Wei Sizhe looked sideways at Chu Jiahe through the light grayness, and stretched out his hand to pinch his face twice.

"Let's aim at what you said." Wei Sizhe paused and continued, "Let's work together to live a stable life."

Chu Jiahe stared at Wei Sizhe, his eyes twitched slightly, and the words buried deep in his heart were about to come out.The car door opened, and Wei Sizhe went around the front of the car to hold Chu Jiahe's hand. On the secluded and deserted tree-lined road, there was an orange cat walking leisurely, and a pair of lovers who had just fallen in love.

The stone road next to the pond can only pass through one person, and the two are one in front of the other, and Chu Jiahe looks at Wei Sizhe's back, and a strong sense of peace of mind stirs up a warm current in his body, which slowly flows through his body.

Mr. Wei, starting today, every day I am with you is a gift from life to me.

There were only a few rooms with lights on in the corridor on the first floor, and Wei Qiao was still awake.Chu Jiahe knocked on the door and walked in. Wei Qiao raised his head when he heard the sound, took off his reading glasses and smiled happily: "Xiao Chu is back."

It was Wei Sizhe who was following behind who answered, "I'm back too, Dad."

"What time is it?" The mild expression turned serious, and Wei Qiao pointed at Wei Sizhe with the legs of his glasses, "Insufficient sleep not only affects the quality of work, but the most important thing is that it endangers your health."

Da Ma Jindao sat on the folding chair, Wei Sizhe loosened his tie, and said, "This is the same point when I finish overtime work, it's okay, don't delay my sleep."

"Okay, if you see your father, go back quickly." Wei Qiao frowned and issued the "Exit Order", "It's so dangerous to drive at night."

Chu Jiahe waited patiently for the conversation to end before asking, "Mister, have you soaked your feet tonight?"

"Nope." Wei Qiao waved his hand at him, "I won't brew any more. I've drank a lot of white tea, and my body is warm."

"That won't work, we have to soak." Wei Sizhe didn't wait for Wei Qiao to refuse, and gave Chu Jiahe a look, "Bring me a basin of hot water."

Wei Qiao said unhappily, "Go home."

Unbuttoning his suit so that he could bend over later, Wei Sizhe folded his cuffs and said, "As soon as you finish soaking your feet, I'll leave right away."

Chu Jiahe walked out of the room carrying the thermos pot and plastic basin, Wei Sizhe took out the nail clippers from the drawer, and moved the seat closer to the bedside: "Give me your hand."

Wei Qiao felt sorry for Wei Sizhe's trouble, and reluctantly extended his left hand to him.After listening to the movement of the nail scissors and observing for a moment, Wei Qiao asked, "Have you settled down with Xiao Chu?"

"Yeah." After carefully cutting off the barb on Wei Qiao's thumb, Wei Sizhe replied, "The relationship was just confirmed today."

"It's only decided today? I thought the two of you would get married early." Wei Sizhe flicked his wrist with his backhand, and Wei Qiao "criticized", "Son, you are much more annoying than your father was back then."

"Tsk." Wei Sizhe said with a frown, "I'm already 34, why do I still do it?"

Wei Qiao snorted angrily: "Even if you are 68, you are still a child in my eyes."

"I want Chu Jiahe to feel my sincerity first before making a decision. Anyway, I already recognized him, so it depends on his attitude." Wei Sizhe pulled Wei Qiao's right hand, bowed his head and said, " I can't be in a hurry to confirm the relationship as soon as I feel it, I have to solve all the problems I found first, and then express my heart seriously, otherwise, Chu Jiahe will always feel insecure."

Wei Qiao stroked his chin thoughtfully: "I'm thinking about one thing right now."

"What's the matter?" Wei Sizhe joked with a smile, "My son has finally found a match, are you reluctant to part with it again? Don't 'make it difficult' for Chu Jiahe."

"You're talking nonsense." Wei Qiao made a gesture to slap him again, but Wei Sizhe dodged it, "Could your dad be that kind of parent!"

"Xiao Chu is willing to follow you. It's your blessing. The two of us live together, and firewood, rice, oil and salt come first. In this regard, I am far behind your mother. If it weren't for her, would our father and son have such a good life? ?”

Wei Qiao said unhappily: "I was thinking about what gift I should give to Xiao Chu as an elder in the family..."

The door was pushed open, Chu Jiahe stepped in, and the hot water in the basin was steaming.Wei Sizhe got up to catch it, put it on the ground, and then supported Wei Qiao to sit beside the bed.

Just as Chu Jiahe was about to squat on the ground, Wei Sizhe pulled him in front of him, licked/licked his lips: "I want a cup of loquat juice."

Chu Jiahe turned his head and asked, "Do you want the old man?"

"Yes." Wei Qiao replied, "Add some honey."

After sending Chu Jiahe away, Wei Sizhe sat back in his chair, bent down and tested the water temperature.The water was below Wei Qiao's ankles, Wei Sizhe gently kneaded his father's calf, massaged it a few times, and picked up the topic just now: "What kind of gift are you giving? It's really unnecessary."

Wei Sizhe was wearing a well-made suit. He was bending his waist and stretching his arms at the moment, constantly busying himself with his father.Wei Qiao stared at the hair on the top of his son's head, the images in his eyes overlapped with the memories. Wei Sizhe was so sensible when he was 14 years old, and now he is 34, nothing has changed.

Warming Wei Qiao's chilly knees with hot palms, Wei Sizhe heard a long sigh, raised his eyes and said, "Mr. Wei, the more you sigh, the faster you grow old."

Wei Qiao's eyes were red, and he said a few words in his heart to Wei Sizhe in a rare way: "In my whole life, looking back on the roads I walked before, the ups and downs, big and small, are really not worth mentioning at this age. "

"Standing at the end of life, time becomes more and more extravagant, and my heart becomes clearer and clearer."

Wei Sizhe said: "You are far from the finish line."

"Si Zhe, life is short, and you will never truly appreciate it until the end, so you must listen to your father's words, and try to save the precious time of this life for the most important person." Wei Qiao said softly, "Get along with each other , communication is essential, problems should be analyzed and resolved together, and conflicts should not be procrastinated, otherwise it will only cause more harm to each other."

"You are older than Xiao Chu, and you have greater responsibilities. You should protect him, tolerate him, encourage him, and especially respect him."

Wei Sizhe wanted to prove himself that Wei Qiao's worries were completely unnecessary, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.Wei Qiao has chattered less recently, and it's rare that he is willing to talk more now, so Wei Sizhe nodded vigorously, unfolded the towel and said, "I see, Dad."

Lie back on the bed and put on the quilt, Wei Qiao tilted his head, looked at the pot of honeysuckle by the window, and smiled all over his face: "I will definitely have a good dream when I sleep tonight."

Wei Sizhe picked up the basin and asked, "Why are you so sure?"

With his hands crossed on his stomach, Wei Qiao looked away at Wei Sizhe, raising his eyebrows proudly: "Because I have two sons."
