[Comprehensive] Bewitching life

My cousin's birthday was perfect, and while He Xin was fed a mouth full of dog food, he also ate a lot of delicious food.For the rest of the day, life went on as usual, neither salty nor salty, no big deal, just trivial things like water.In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

The calendar is marked with a strange label again, this time it is not a cousin, but a word "Xiang".

This day is Sima Xiang's death day, and He Xin has been in this world for six full years.

After get off work, He Xin took the bus to the city, and bought a bouquet of chrysanthemums from a nearby flower shop, white and yellow, which looked fresh and elegant.It takes 10 minutes to walk from the flower shop to the minibus station, then transfer to the subway, then take a minibus, and you will be there.

Sima Xiang was not buried in burial. In fact, most Hong Kong people were not buried in burial, but cremated, and then the ashes were placed in the columbarium.Due to the dense population and the scarcity of land in Hong Kong, many deceased people do not even have a place to bury them, so many people choose columbariums to store their ashes.A columbarium is a facility similar to a giant locker, with one cell at a time, and each cell is a niche.

Come to think of it, an entire wall is filled with niches sized according to the size of the columbarium.Like small tombstones, there are photos of the deceased on them, and detailed descriptions of their identity: name, birthday, and date of death.From top to bottom, from left to right, densely packed, there are incense candles lit by family members during worship, and tributes placed everywhere. When He Xin came here for the first time, he felt chills all over.

It's just that no matter how scared he was, several years had passed, and when he faced it again, He Xin was able to take it calmly.

This year, He Xin seemed to have come a little earlier. The tributes and bouquets placed in Sima Xiang's niche were a little stale, and there was some dust on the niche.In the past, when He Xin came, it was as clean as new, and the fruits and flowers were also juicy.Putting the bouquet aside, He Xin took the original things and went to find a place to throw them away. She asked the staff here, and there was a trash can for collecting these not far away. arrive.

When I came back again, I saw Sima Nianzu who was changing fresh fruits and bouquets.Even though it was from the back, He Xin still recognized it. He was tall and straight, looking like a mountain from a distance.

Almost at the same time, Sima Nianzu turned his head and saw He Xin.He nodded to her with a solemn face, his voice low.

"You're here." His eyes stayed on her and he said this.

"Yeah," He Xin didn't know what to say, so he said, "You're a bit late this year."

Sima Nianzu didn't deny it: "I have something to do, so I'm late."

He Xin followed his topic and said, "Just be earlier next time." Since you're here, you're not considered late.

She thought that Uncle Xiang would not be angry because of such a trivial matter.Recalling that open-minded and tolerant old man, for some reason, He Xin can be so sure.Frankly speaking, in those days, He Xin never saw Uncle Xiang angry when we met, and he always laughed heartily when he talked.Laughing slowly, a little childish, sometimes very wise, he is an old man with a good temper.

But such an old man passed away so suddenly.

After returning home from Sima Xiang's funeral, He Xin once searched for newspapers. He thought it was a normal death, so there would be no related reports, but he didn't expect there to be.In the very back section of the society page, it was said that the prisoner had a quarrel with each other and got excited and accidentally injured another prisoner, who lost a lot of blood and died on the spot.

Of course, no specific names were written on it, only the criminals Liu and Li, and the victim Sima.

In addition, at the funeral, Mrs. Sima's expression was agitated, and Sima Nianzu's expression wished to kill someone. The dispute...

Also, his strange movements these days.

These alone are enough to judge.

Sima Nianzu wanted revenge.

And the targets he wanted to take revenge on were the "star faces" who appeared at the funeral, and they were all old people who were about the same age as Sima Xiang.He Xin didn't know who they were, but occasionally saw them on the financial news. They were either the president or the general manager.They are inconspicuous among the many rich people in Hong Kong, but now they are all prominent and successful people in society.

Therefore, He Xin could understand that Sima Nianzu didn't want to deal with anyone at all.

Sima Nianzu didn't want to have anything to do with anyone, he didn't want to be a burden, and he didn't want to implicate others.

However, on this day, Sima Nianzu broke He Xin's stereotype.

-

After the two finished clearing the niche, Sima Nianzu proposed to send He Xin back to the nursing home.

Because they were on the same road, he also sent He Xin back when He Xin and Sima Nianzu "helped each other" last time. Naturally, He Xin agreed without thinking too much—but soon, she I found myself thinking less.

Sima Nianzu began to appear frequently in He Xin's life.

In fact, it wasn't that frequent before. It can only be said that Sima Nianzu was constantly avoiding the world more or less.But for some unknown reason, Shenlong became a neighbor all of a sudden.

It wasn't that Sima Nianzu suddenly became amiable, but that he gradually integrated into the life of the nursing home.

Just like a taciturn but stable and reliable volunteer and social activity volunteer, He Xin can often see Sima Nianzu no matter when there is an activity or no activity.Whether it's a coincidence or on purpose, Sima Nianzu can always help He Xin.In this way, many nurses and elderly people in the nursing home are saying that Mr. Sima is pursuing Ms. He, the kind with a single arrow.

The hairs all over He Xin's body were about to stand on end, frightened.

She admits that she has a good impression of Sima Nianzu, and even this kind of favor goes beyond social morality and the concept of right and wrong, but this does not mean that she can accept Sima Nianzu's false pursuit. In this pursuit, He Xin Can't see likes.

She can only feel the full malice, the malice the world has towards her.

Just like treating that blind date, He Xin didn't need to think about it to know that he really had nothing to gain.The only thing that is more valuable is that she has a cousin who is very capable, beautiful, shrewd and capable, and her cousin is married to a husband who is called a "stock god".As it happens, Uncle Sima Xiangxiang used to be a stockbroker.

He Xin didn't know what relationship his cousin-in-law Luo Minsheng had with those bosses, but it seemed that Sima Nianzu even thought of the trick of "beautiful men" and was so open-minded.Then the two parties probably have some relationship, maybe the relationship is still very close.

But what does this have to do with He Xin?Not to mention that it was impossible for her to help Sima Nianzu spy on her cousin-in-law, even if she could, Luo Minsheng was not stupid, so how could she reveal her private information to a cheap cousin who often came to the house to have fun?Cousin Guo Liping has said it herself, that cousin-in-law never talks about business at home, and never mentions a word, one can imagine the vigilance of the cousin-in-law.Even my cousin's husband is so young, not to mention those old foxes.

Fighting against a group of big bosses with his own strength, to be honest, He Xin feels tired for Sima Nianzu.

However, no matter how tired she was, she didn't say anything. Everything was just He Xin's speculation, based on her "star face".Why did He Xin know these people, because she liked to watch TV before time travel.Do you want to explain this clearly to Sima Nianzu?

Unless she's crazy.

Fortunately, He Xin has long been used to keeping this secret deep in her heart. Everyone has secrets, but hers is special.

-

Day after day passed, and He Xin did not accept Sima Nianzu's so-called "pursuit".Sima Nianzu seemed to accept this result, but he didn't seem to accept it.In short, he didn't say much, and the reaction was unexpectedly flat.

Even when He Xin was doing something, it would be fine if Sima Nianzu didn't see it. If he did, he would silently follow behind her.Sometimes it is to help, and sometimes it is simply to follow, and does not take the initiative to speak, and is very silent.

He Xin also couldn't figure out whether he was giving up or "persevering".

In fact, think about it, He Xin is basically a home girl, if there are no activities in the nursing home in a week, she will not go out for more than two days at most.Even if Sima Nianzu tried to find any clues on her, it would be in vain.

But, that's how he followed.

"Don't you have to go to work?" He Xin was not usually surprised, Sima Nianzu followed her footsteps and became an otaku.

Sima Nianzu answered very succinctly: "Yes, but you don't have to go to work every day."

He Xin felt something was wrong. According to the frequency of his "going to work" before, it can be said to have dropped significantly compared to now.

"Is the courier company not busy?" Sima Nianzu filled out the logistics form on the relative form of the nursing home, which is what he told others.

"It's off-season recently, so I'm not busy." Sima Nianzu said this, almost writing the word "perfunctory" on his face.

He Xin: "..." One sentence made He Xin almost speechless.

Forget it, as long as you are happy.

He Xin thinks this way, but it doesn't mean everyone thinks this way.Anyway, He Xin has been a nurse here for six years, and there is no one in the nursing home who does not know her.Now that she knew He Xin, she could naturally see if it was Sima Nianzu who appeared in front of her.Most of the old people in the nursing home called Sima Nianzu Azu because of Mrs. Sima. Sima Nianzu would not put a cold face on the people in the nursing home. I have a good impression of him too.

When two juniors with a good impression got together, the elderly in the nursing home never once saw the two of them without joking, and the last time they greeted each other with a smile: "Azu (Miss He), and Miss He (Miss He) Zu) date?"

At first, He Xin would explain, but the eyes of the masses are discerning, explaining is covering up, and covering up is hinting.

In the end, He Xin didn't even explain.

Living peacefully until now, He Xin can be said to be very Buddhist.

As for Sima Nianzu, he also said that they are not boyfriend and girlfriend, and anyone who asks will always answer: "They are friends."

No matter who he was talking to, he said that, even his mother, Mrs. Sima, was no exception, which made Mrs. Sima hot and cold towards He Xin.When he is awake, he is cold, but when he is confused, he is very enthusiastic. After thinking about it carefully, this attitude is very familiar.

——That's right, He Xin felt the treatment of Sima Nianzu in front of his own mother.

Similarly, He Xin also felt something else.

Every morning, He Xin walks around the nursing home a few times to breathe the fresh air around her; after that, she eats breakfast early, clocks in at work, and changes shifts with her colleagues; The same is true for lunch and dinner; after breakfast, there is a ward round, replacing the bed sheets of the elderly, and taking care of every elderly person as much as possible; in addition, when there are activities in the nursing home, the elderly should be taken care of in batches, and their needs should be met as much as possible, not to mention Let them get lost.

These are the daily life of He Xin, which is flat and boring to talk about.But when there is another person around anything, it feels very different.But now, there is a man named Sima Nianzu beside He Xin.

Both like friends, but also like lovers.

They don't speak to each other, but they know each other.

The author has something to say: I feel that I have fast-forwarded a lot. I will talk about what Azu thinks in the next chapter.

Good night, okay!
