Deskmate, wake up

"Don't show off your voice of choking a chick's neck, follow me." Zhou Youchao Tongtong finished complacently, grinning with teeth, and beckoned to Pei Yun outside the window.

Pei Yun was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and waved twice.

Tong Tong: "..."

Who the hell is this...

Tong Tong got angry and pushed Zhou You away from the window: "Mom! Where are you going!"

"I'll go find you!" Pei Yun also yelled, "Did you drop your leg?"

Tong Tong was stunned, his mother didn't even see how he knew.

"Amazing, your mother has clairvoyant eyes!" Zhou You boasted.

"My legs are fine!" Tong Tong replied.

Pei Yun didn't speak anymore, and hurried home.

When Pei Yun came home, Zhou You greeted her with a smile and went back first.

He could tell that Pei Yun and Tong Tong should have something to talk about.

Zhou You guessed right.

Pei Yun squatted on the ground and stared nervously at Tong Tong's bruised ankles.

"It's okay, Mom." Tong Tong frowned and pulled her, "It just looks scary, but it doesn't hurt."

"Did you go to see me last night?" Pei Yun asked suddenly.

Tong Tong froze for a moment, then lied with a guilty conscience: "...No."

"The aunt downstairs told me today that a person fell into the small lake last night." Pei Yun frowned, "After hearing what she said, I thought it was you."

"It's not me... How could I be so stupid to fall into the lake." Tong Tong

"My son is not stupid." Pei Yun smiled, "It's just that he doesn't like to be clean. The carpet at home is full of mud, and he doesn't know how to shake it before telling a lie."

"........."

Tong Tong subconsciously glanced at the carpet beside the sofa.

"Okay, I know you're worried about me." Pei Yun looked at his feet again, "Go to the hospital to have a look."

After the examination at the hospital, there was nothing serious about the foot, but it was not far from being put on a plaster cast.

No wonder Tong Tong felt that her feet were so painful that she couldn't touch the ground.

The doctor prescribed medicine and wrapped a bandage around him for immobilization.

After finishing his feet, Tong Tong and his mother went directly to the inpatient department to see his father.

It was very quiet in the ward, his father was sleeping.

Tong Tong limped in and pulled the quilt up for his father.

Pei Yun watched and laughed beside him.

Tong Tong laughed too, and made several faces at his father.

But the two of them didn't sit in the ward for long, Pei Yun gently pulled Tong Tong out of the ward.

"What's wrong?" Tong Tong looked at her.

"The doctor said that your father's condition has stabilized after hemodialysis. His blood pressure has also dropped. Even if he can't wait for a kidney source or get a kidney replacement, the situation is still better than before." Pei Yun smiled, "Observe for a while, You can be discharged from the hospital. You can come to the hospital for dialysis every once in a while."

"That's great." Tong Tong was pleasantly surprised.

"It's just..." Pei Yun lowered his head, unable to speak.

"What's wrong?" Tong Tong was puzzled.

"The family's money... is almost..." Pei Yun said with difficulty.

Tong Tong frowned tightly, with an ugly expression on his face.

He never thought that his family would worry about money one day.

Since the accident at home, he can do nothing to help.If the family hadn't really run out of money right now, his mother probably wouldn't have mentioned it to him.

Mr. Tong Jingshen and Ms. Pei Yun kept him in a glass enclosure in an unusually tacit understanding.

"Sell my piano." Tong Tong said suddenly.

Pei Yun's eyes turned red suddenly, and she grabbed her son's hand tightly: "I'm sorry."

The family really ran out of money, and everything that could be mortgaged was mortgaged, and everything that could be sold was sold, and the only thing left was the piano that Tong Tong had been with since childhood.

She has been struggling with how to tell her son about this, but she has never been able to say it.

That piano was given to Tong Tong by Tong Tong's grandfather on his eighth birthday.

Tong Tong began to learn violin at that time, Tong Tong learned for ten years.

When I was young, I had to sleep holding the piano every day, and no one was allowed to touch it, and no one was allowed to touch it.

Pei Yun couldn't say that he was going to sell Tong Tong's piano.

She knew that if Qin was sold, Tong Tong's world might really change.

"It's okay, I'll buy it back when I make money later." Tong Tong pretended not to care, "Anyway, I haven't done much for a while, it's okay."

Pei Yun lowered his head and said nothing, tears fell on the cold floor of the hospital one by one.

Tong Tong also felt uncomfortable seeing his mother like this.

He reached out and hugged his mother: "It's okay, I'll buy Qin later, don't feel bad."

Pei Yun cried for a while, then slowly calmed down.

Gently smiled at Tong Tong, signaling him not to worry.

Tong Tong was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Mom, please ask the piano shop for me, I can take students there on weekends."

"No." Pei Yun refused without thinking.

"It's okay, even if I don't study on weekends, I can still take the first place." Tong Tong knew what she was worried about.

"No." Pei Yun didn't discuss at all, "You just have to worry about going to school."

Tong Tong frowned, his fucking expression was too determined.

But in the family situation, an income is needed, and his mother alone is definitely not enough.

"You go back first, you have to study by yourself at night." Pei Yun patted him on the back, "I'll stay with your dad for a while longer."

"En." Tong Tong nodded.

He walked out of the hospital slowly, he didn't get on the bus, and just walked all the way home.

Sitting on the sofa in a daze for a while, he remembered that he had to look at his piano.

Tong Tong found the piano case she had put in the box in the bookcase.

The heavy black wood looks a little faded, but the violin held inside is exquisite and delicate.

Pretty as if shining.

Tong Tong took it out, stared at it for a while, and when she was about to put it in, Tong Tong regretted it.

He reached out and took out the bow as well.

Tong Tong closed her eyes, put the violin under her chin, and held the bow tightly with the other hand.

He took a deep breath and slowly put the bow on the strings.

The whole world is quiet, the cars downstairs, the water flushing upstairs, and even the sound of the wind blowing.

Like hitting the pause button.

But just one second, the next second.

The soothing and brisk sound of the piano danced around his little house with Tong Tong's breath, the bow, and the breeze.

Finish a song.

The warm applause suddenly sounded, and Tong Tong suddenly opened his eyes.

It's traveling around.

Zhou You didn't know when he came in, he leaned against the door, smiled and raised his hands and clapped.

The applause was loud and enthusiastic.

Tong Tong suddenly recalled the first time he brought his piano, and after playing on stage, the applause from the audience was the same.

Hot and dense.

The applause in my ears seemed to merge with the applause when I first appeared on stage.

Not knowing what happened, Tong Tong's nose was sore, he lowered his head and saw the water droplets hitting his violin.

"Hey!" Zhou You stood there in a daze, and then shouted in succession, "Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, why are you crying? My applause is so bad."

Tong Tong cried louder, he felt out of breath, and simply squatted on the ground.

Tong Tong hugged his violin, the corners of his eyes were red from crying, as if saying goodbye to the past.

At dawn tomorrow, he will muster up the courage to face a difficult and dangerous world thoroughly.

Tong Tong felt uncomfortable, why did this happen, he wasn't ready yet.

No one reminded him to get ready.In the blink of an eye, time changed everything before he could react.

Zhou You was stunned for a while, then suddenly squatted down, opened his arms, and hugged Tong Tong and the violin in his arms.

He didn't understand what happened, but Tong Tong was crying now, just like when he was thrown away when he was a child.

At that time, he just hoped that someone would come and hug him.Don't say anything, don't ask anything.Just be with me.

The two were like mushrooms, squatting on the ground for half an hour.

"...Zhou You." Tong Tong said, his voice hoarse.

"It's okay, don't be sad." Zhou You snored along his back with the palm of his hand like coaxing a child.

"No..." Tong Tong said with difficulty, "You strangled my neck..."

"…………"

"I... can't breathe..."

"…………"

Zhou You hurriedly carried him to the bed, and frantically followed Tong Tong's instructions to find the asthma spray on the desk.

Tong Tong took a breath, he was starved of oxygen by Zhou You.

"You did it so well, you made yourself cry." Zhou You came over to tease him, "Look at your red eyes, they look like rabbits."

Tong Tong wiped his face, smiled, and nodded without explaining.

Some things can only be swallowed by oneself, and whether they can digest them is their own business.

Tong Tong didn't go to the evening self-study, he hugged his piano and fell asleep.

Early the next morning.

Tong Tong handed over the piano box to his mother.

Pei Yun frowned and touched his face.

Tong Tong smiled and waved to his mother, opened the door and went out.

As soon as the door opened, I looked at Zhou You.

Zhou You leaned against the wall, lowered his head, and put his hands in his pockets.

A backpack was slung over his shoulder, the zipper was unzipped, and a book corner was exposed inside.

Hearing the sound of him opening the door, he immediately stood up straight, waved to him, and smiled: "I've been waiting for a long time, what are you doing?"

Zhou Youspirit looked good, but his voice was very nasal.

"You have a cold?" Tong Tong asked with a frown.

"It's okay." Zhou You explained, "Last night, there was another leak upstairs. I went to the living room to sleep all night, and fell on the floor. It was like this when I woke up in the morning."

"I have medicine at home, I'll get it for you." Tong Tong said.

"No need! I'm really fine." Zhou You clenched his fists and made a strong man's movement, "It's great."

"Wait a minute." Tong Tong opened the door and went in again.

Zhou You didn't stop him.

After a while, Tong Tong came out with a glass of warm water and cold medicine.

After Zhou You took the medicine, he squatted down and took a look at Tong Tong's feet: "Why are you still limping when you walk? What does the hospital say?"

"It's okay, it's just sprained." Tong Tong said.

"Let's go, I'll carry you down." Zhou You stood up, ready to hug someone.

"I'll go on by myself. It doesn't hurt as much as yesterday." Tong Tong took a step back, fearing that he might misunderstand, so he lowered his head and explained in a low voice, "You must have a cold, and you must not feel well."

"It's okay! Did I tell you, I used to have a big dog." Zhou You smiled, "I hug you just like hugging my old dog."

Tong Tong: "..."

"You are a bit heavier than a dog." Zhou You repeatedly emphasized, "But hold on tight!"

Tong Tong turned around and went down the stairs.

"Hey! What's wrong! Why are you angry again!" Zhou You rushed up, frowned and thought for a while, what sentence did he say wrong just now.

Say it's too late.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Zhou You's mind, and he quickly reached out and grabbed him: "I was wrong, I was wrong. You are lighter than a dog! Really!"
