[Zhang Yunlei] Grab your stomach and your heart

Chapter 24: Persevere—"Lotus Root Tofu" is about you

Yihua woke up the next morning, put on light makeup, went to the vegetable market to buy fresh ingredients, and wanted to make a "lotus root tofu".This dish is very simple and is a very common home-cooked dish.First, wash the lotus root and put it in a pot, cook and slice it, soak the white fungus thoroughly and chop it into pieces, wash the carrot and dice it, soak the lotus seed and cook it, and mash the garlic into a puree for later use.Then crush the tofu, add mashed garlic, refined salt, sugar, sesame oil, starch, and white fungus, mix well, spread a large bowl with plastic wrap, spread the oil evenly, put lotus seeds in the middle, place lotus root slices around it, and then add minced tofu Press it tightly, put it on the pot and steam for 20 minutes, take it out and put it into the plate, finally put the diced carrots and green beans into the boiling water pot, add refined salt, sesame oil, and pepper to cook, thicken with wet starch, and pour it on the tofu. .

There are two reasons why Yihua chooses such a simple dish. The first is because Yihua thinks that Zhang Yunlei is the same as this dish. The lotus root, which looks crisp and hard on the outside, has been steamed for a long time. It's just a superficial thing, and the lotus seeds that look bitter are lost, leaving only the tofu with a soft heart.The second reason is that Yihua wanted to tell Zhang Yunlei that if they lived together, there would not be so much careful consideration, only the simple warmth of home.

When Yihua came to the hospital with the food box, she happened to see Dalin talking to Zhang Yunlei, so she sat at the door and waited without disturbing her.After a while, seeing that the two of them still had no intention of stopping, Yihua had no choice but to knock on the door.When Zhang Yunlei saw Yihua, his heart twitched and he could only turn his head away.

Yihua stepped forward, opened the dining table and put food boxes on it, and handed the chopsticks to Zhang Yunlei, but Zhang Yunlei didn't reach out, and the two were deadlocked like this.Yihua said: "It's been a while, I know everything."

"What do you know?"

"Your legs, your condition, and your self-righteousness"

"Oh, self-righteous? Liu Yihua, do you think I'm kidding with you? I'll tell you that if we're not suitable, we're not suitable. You don't have to worry about whether I can stand up!"

"Zhang Yunlei, I dare to come here to prove that I am not afraid of your injury! I am not afraid of all your complications and sequelae, so why do you make decisions for me?"

Zhang Yunlei was silent for a while, looking into Yihua's eyes, his heart melted for a moment, she was so persistent, so brave, and I...

"Brother Braid, I am me. I never hide my appreciation and love for you, so I am willing to wash your hands and make soup for you, and I am willing to accept everything from you. I will tell you clearly now, Zhang Yunlei, no matter what happens in the future, I I accept everything, so will you let go of my hand?"

"Yihua, you...don't be like this...I'm not worth it! You have a better life!"

"That's enough Zhang Yunlei. Whether it's worth it or not is my business. My life is my choice. I'll ask you now. I'm standing here. Do you want it or not?"

"I... I can't afford it! Yihua, you go! Find a man who has the courage to take responsibility for you, and live a good life!"

"Zhang Yunlei, you bastard!" After speaking, Yihua turned around and left the ward. The moment the door closed, Yihua's tears also fell.Zhang Yunlei, you are gentle to the whole world, but you are so cruel to yourself alone!

Guo Qilin watched Yihua run out, and chased after him, but before going out, he turned his head to look at his old uncle: "Old man, I'm not worth it for Yihua! I told you everything, but you made Such a decision, you are a coward, you are not worthy of Yihua!"

Zhang Yunlei looked at the door, with tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, and said silently: "Take good care of her, I wish you happiness."

Guo Qilin looked at Zhang Yunlei in disbelief. It turned out that he knew everything, and he saw his own struggles. In the end, when he chose to let go, he was also fulfilling himself. There were thousands of words in his heart, but in the end they all turned into one word: "Hmm!" This was Guo Qilin's promise to his uncle and also to himself.

When Yihua ran out, she saw Zhang's mother sitting in the corridor. Zhang's mother stopped her and wanted to talk to Yihua.Looking at this haggard mother, Yihua really had no way to refuse, so she could only quickly sort out her mood and maintain politeness and demeanor.

"Yihua, don't blame Xiao Zhuang! Not only does he disagree with this matter, but Auntie also can't agree. You are a good boy, how can Auntie have the heart to see the rest of your life ruined by a paralyzed person? You are young, now Love and love will be smoothed out by time and hardships in life sooner or later. Besides, if I were your parents, I would not allow my daughter to marry such a person, so no matter how much my aunt likes you, I can’t ruin your happiness. You have treated us these days Auntie is aware of Xiao Zhuang’s care, but the child should forget about him! It’s better to suffer now than a lifetime, listen to Auntie, don’t cry, it’s not worth it.”

Yihua looked at Zhang's mother, she really felt sorry for her, so distressed that she couldn't bear to curse her son.Yihua thought of her mother for a moment, if such a thing happened to her, her mother might cry blind!The relationship between myself and brother Zhui hurt, hurt each other, and also hurt the mother's heart.Yihua stepped forward and hugged Zhang's mother, and persuaded softly: "Auntie, it's okay, don't think too much, Brother Zhui will definitely get better."

Zhang's mother lay on Yihua's shoulder and cried silently. This is her child. I have seen her son since childhood. There is no mother who does not want her child to be healthy and happy. Health is beyond the reach, and now she has to do it with her own hands. Abandoning happiness, how can this not make her feel like a knife is twisting her heart!

Yihua patted Zhang's mother on the back and said softly, "Auntie, I never blamed Brother Zhui, I understand his difficulties and choices, but I was angry at myself, I didn't give him enough confidence , able to make him firmly with me."

Zhang's mother raised her head and said, "No, my child, he got himself into the horns! If one day he is really safe and can stand up again, he will regret it. Auntie is also begging you here, If there is a day when Xiao Zhuang realizes that he was wrong, can you give him another chance?"

"Auntie, we will encounter countless accidents and difficulties in our life. When two people are together, we must be prepared to face everything. It is not enough to carry it alone. If there is such a day, brother braid will be ready To be prepared to face life with me, and at that time I hadn't found the right person, I would."

"Good boy, thank you, really, with your words, auntie is enough."

At this time, Dalin came out of the house, and Zhang's mother stood up and said, "Son, you can't see the wind after crying, let Dalin drive you back, and report to Auntie that you are safe when you get home."

Dalin drove Yihua home in the car, neither of them spoke, Yihua looked at the scenery outside the window, and Dalin was sad alone.He heard the entire conversation between Yihua and Zhang's mother.Yihua, even so, are you still unwilling to give up?If you don't have someone who can be with you for a lifetime at that time, you are still willing to give him a chance.So have you thought about giving me a chance to spend the rest of this life with you?

Yihua returned home, and originally wanted to leave with her luggage, but she was worried about Zhang's mother. She knew that this mother was the hardest one during this time, so Yihua decided to make some food for this mother.Life is already so hard, so why don’t you give me something sweet? After all, I have no skills and nothing to repay. Only cooking skills can be of some use. I hope that my aunt can forget the hard work in life for a moment when she eats these snacks. This is enough.

Yihua chose four dried fruits from the "Court Banquet": honey peanuts, cashews with strange flavors, sticky walnuts, and apple jelly.Three sweets to Zhang's mother and one salty to Zhang's father, thank them for raising Brother Zhui and taking care of Yihua during this time.After Yihua was done, she didn't send it in person, nor did she ask Dalin to take it there, but chose express delivery.This time, Yihua used up all the ingredients she bought in Nanjing, and made a lot of them, which was enough for Zhang's father and Zhang's mother to eat for a while.

After sending the things away, Yihua tidied up briefly and handed over the house key to Guo Qilin.Yihua rented this house for a month, and lived for less than ten days. For the rest of the time, Dalin can leave the hotel and live here. Jiulang, Jiuhan, and Brother Biao can squeeze in if they want. Small but more convenient than a hotel.

After everything was arranged, Yihua took her packed luggage and asked Dalin to take her to the airport.At the airport, Yihua saw Zhang Yunlei's fans cheering on the big screen, and the screen was full of "Come on, Brother Braid! Your future is flat! You will definitely get better, and we look forward to your return." Yihua looked at the blessings of fans, and then Thinking of the pale man on the hospital bed, my heart throbbed, and finally I asked Dalin to help me take a few photos in front of the support screen and send them to Moments: From today onwards, I am still your fan, Er Ye, I wish you all the best! you are safe.

In this way, Yihua left Nanjing, bid farewell to the first and last recklessness in his life, before boarding the plane, Dalin hugged Yihua, and said in a low voice: "Yihua, you have always been very good, I like it very much, Don't be sad anymore." Yihua patted Dalin's back lightly and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll wait for you in Hunan."

"Well, see you in a month." Can you forget my old uncle in a month?Will you accept me then?Yihua, I hope you can give me a chance when I go to Hunan to record a show!

Before shutting down the phone on the plane, Yihua checked her WeChat, and was surprised to see Zhang Yunlei’s WeChat, "Yihua, goodbye! We are still friends." Hehe, yes, friend, that is friends!

Yihua looked at Moments and saw that her colleagues liked it one after another, but no one commented.Very good, it seems that the time when I was away was very peaceful, did you not say a word to welcome me back?Monkey kids, your sister Yihua is back, she washed her neck clean, sister, I am in a bad mood, so please come in and try not to make mistakes~ [Smile.jpg]

Zhang's mother received a large box of express delivery from Yihua in the ward. When she saw several large boxes of desserts, she couldn't help crying again. Zhang's father saw his daughter-in-law's eyes reddened at the cardboard box, and thought to himself what is going on up?Didn't the doctor just say that my son is in good condition, and he can have a second operation to remove the broken bone tomorrow?Why are you crying again?What did you buy?

Zhang's father came over to look at Zhang's mother's boxes, and saw familiar food boxes, and there was a piece of paper on each food box, writing what it was for, what ingredients it contained, and food that could cause allergies What are the ingredients? When Father Zhang saw these, he knew that they were sent by Yihua.Zhang's father was also very helpless about his son's decision. Undoubtedly, she was a good girl, but whether he could catch it was up to his son. Zhang's father carried the box into the ward and put it away in front of Zhang Yunlei.

"Dad, what is this?"

"This is what Yihua sent me and your mother to eat. Don't be surprised that there is such a big box. Your mother and I don't eat it and leave it to you. I told you this is not to make you cry , son, you should grow up and learn to be brave for love. When these snacks are finished, I hope you can stand up and chase your love bravely."
