Shen Li woke up with a dull stomach pain in the morning, and went to the toilet seven times in the early morning. When she came out of the toilet for the seventh time, Shen Li was trembling and weak, with shortness of breath, cold sweat on his forehead and back, and dizziness before his eyes. Signs of dehydration.

A man who lives alone must not faint.

Walking down the short distance from the master bedroom on the second floor to the living room on the first floor, the short-sleeved T-shirt on Shen Li's body was already wet with sweat, sticking to his body sticky, but he can't care about these things in his current situation,' Gudu Gudu 'I drank a few glasses of water and took some gastrointestinal medicine, and lay down on the sofa for a long time before I recovered.

Egg Tart realized that something was wrong with the owner, wagging its tail anxiously, guarding in front of the sofa, with two paws resting on the sofa, rubbing against Shen Li's hand with its big head, its beautiful big eyes were wet, making people feel soft And pleased.

Shen Li reached out and touched Egg Tart's head, and sat up with the armrest of the sofa, his face was still pale, his stomach was still aching, but his strength had recovered a lot.

He made dog food for the egg tart, ate some bread and milk, and went upstairs to lie down.

He shouldn't have eaten so much cake yesterday, he was greedy for a moment, and even forgot that Gu Yi brought ice cream cake, and ate half of it, he deserved it this morning.

In fact, he is not just greedy for that bite. If you ask him what the cake tastes like now, he may not be able to tell immediately. What impressed him the most was the feeling that the cake brought to him at that time.

——After so many years, those who left him that he cared about happily returned to him in another way.

It was like a dream, but he was luckier, it was not a dream, but a fact.

Shen Li fell asleep in a daze for a while, Egg Tart obediently lay beside Shen Li, the phone downstairs rang suddenly, the faint sound was only caught by Egg Tart's ears, he raised his head and looked around , jumped out of bed and ran to the living room, picked up the phone and handed it to Shen Li.

Shen Li was finally awakened by the ringtone. This was the third time he called after the automatic hang-up. Shen Li groped sleepily for the phone and brought it to his ear. Nasal, sounding like he hasn't woken up yet "Hello."

The person on the opposite side paused for a moment when he heard his voice, and then a female voice came from the receiver. It was a female voice that was no longer clear and clear after getting older, and her tone was habitually coercive, "Have you not woken up yet?"

When Shen Li heard the voice, she woke up completely. She moved the phone screen and looked at it. She confirmed that it was his mother, Ms. Yu Qiuyi. He was one of the few people who remembered his birthday, and would come to this small county in person every year around this time to have a meal with him. This was the only meeting between him and Ms. Yu every year.

Shen Li didn't answer her words, but just asked, "What's the matter?"

Ms. Yu Qiuyi is obviously used to the way she talks to her son, so she doesn't need to exchange pleasantries, she just goes straight to the point, "Come out for a meal at noon, the newly opened 'private kitchen' on Xinyue Road."

Shen Li didn't answer: "Have you been here?"

"No, I'm on the plane and take off in 5 minutes."

Shen Li frowned slightly, but still nodded, "Okay."

The number of phone calls between mother and child every year can be counted on one hand. Every time, it seems to save phone bills, and save everything that can be saved. A few hurried sentences are concise and... alienated.

Ms. Yu Qiuyi was unshakable and insisted on the meal appointment before Shen Li's birthday for more than ten years. Shen Li couldn't understand Ms. Yu's motives and original intentions. It's more like a rigid process between people. After a meal, there is almost no effect other than embarrassment.

He didn't have the idea of ​​being miserable in front of the lady, nor did he care much about what the lady thought of him.The reason he didn't say no to Ms. Yu was just because he didn't want a simple refusal followed by a question about his illness, or Ms. Yu's direct presence in the house, to trigger something like 'oh look at my poor son alone without his parents. What a miserable life alone' The picture of visiting a sick person.

Shen Li absolutely did not want to witness and experience such a scene.

The aching stomach still didn't get better, and his pale face warmed up a little, but it was still not normal. Shen Li picked out a pink T-shirt from the closet, which could make his complexion look better.

Gu Yi's bite marks were obvious on his neck, and Shen Li applied a thick layer of liquid foundation to cover it up.

After settling down the egg tarts, Shen Li drove out.

Today it is said that there will be some thunderstorms. The gloomy weather makes the air hot and sticky. Shen Li tugged on his neckline, feeling a little difficult to breathe. Fortunately, there are air conditioners in the car and in the store, so he doesn't need to stay outdoors for long.

Ms. Yu is a resolute and strong woman, once a decision is made, the follow-up arrangements will be appropriate and comprehensive.

The newly opened restaurant on Xinyue Road is called Private Kitchen, which is expensive and well-decorated.

After entering the door, I reported Ms. Yu's name and was ushered into a box on the second floor.

Before Ms. Yu arrived, the waiter served juice and snacks. Shen Li had no appetite, so he waved his hands and looked through the glass at the pedestrians and vehicles passing by downstairs.

Ms. Yu in her 50s is still a striking presence in the crowd.

A well-fitting suit and skirt outlined her curvy figure, and her thick black long waves were infinitely charming.Red lips and sharp chin in sunglasses, from a distance, no one would think that this amazing lady is over [-] years old, and her age may only be glimpsed in the fine lines at the corners of her eyes under the sunglasses.

"You are not very energetic today." Ms. Yu closed the door of the box with one hand, and took off her sunglasses with the other. It was a face that was still beautiful even with the traces of time, which was half or six points similar to Shen Li.

Shen Li only said: "Didn't sleep well."

She stared at Shen Li's face for a while, but didn't ask any more questions.

Ms. Yu picked up a towel and wiped her hands, signaling the waiter to serve the food.

"I heard that you recently recorded a variety show."

Shen Li nodded.

"What are your plans? Do you want to enter the entertainment industry in the future?"

Shen Li shook her head, "I don't have that idea."

Ms. Yu took a sip of sour plum juice and nodded, "We don't interfere with your choice, and we have no demands on you. You just need to know what you want. What I want you to remember is that I am your mother, Whether you want it or not, you are my sole heir."

After a pause, her voice was a little soft, as thin as a gnat, "So I hope you will not be so independent." Give me a chance to do something for you.

She didn't say the last sentence. It's not that Shen Li doesn't understand, but what's the use of understanding, his current life really doesn't need his parents to do anything for him.

The time of real need has passed.

Before Shen Li could answer, the waiters knocked on the door, filed in, served the food, exited, and closed the door considerately.

With this interruption, the topic seems to have been taken to the past

The two dined quietly.

Shen Li ate a few mouthfuls meaningfully, and the way she chewed slowly made Yu Qiuyi stop. She stared at Shen Li for a while, looking a little tired, then put down her chopsticks, the atmosphere was indescribably depressed.

"You don't look well. Don't tell me you didn't sleep well."

Shen Li was silent for a while, and said the truth, "I don't feel well in my stomach."

These words seemed to irritate Yu Qiuyi, she took a few sips from the quilt containing iced sour plum soup, "Why didn't you say it earlier, why didn't you refuse this meal, are you trying to prove something by making excuses! I am your mother, Not a client you have to deal with!"

She was a little speechless under the agitation.

Shen Li put down the chopsticks in his hand and lowered his eyes, as if he didn't want to look at her again.

After all, Yu Qiuyi has been in the mall for so many years, she lost control of her emotions only for a moment, and immediately forced herself to calm down after she said the words, she eased her tone, "Why didn't you tell me."

"You're already on the plane."

Such a caring and polite attitude.

A trace of hurt flashed in Yu Qiuyi's eyes, "I am your mother, do you still remember that I am your mother?"

Shen Li glanced at Yu Qiuyi, and there was a hint of helplessness in her calm voice: "I'm already 27 years old, and I don't hate you, mom."

Yu Qiuyi's eyes turned red when she said 'Mom', "Don't you know what I'm sad about?"

Of course Shen Li knows, but maybe it's because he didn't have the experience of getting along with his parents when he was young, and he also lost this ability when he became an adult. This kind of polite and considerate is the way of getting along with his parents that he unilaterally explored. He didn't do enough. OK, but he tried too.

"Feel sorry."

Yu Qiuyi's voice was slightly hoarse, "What do you mean sorry? You don't want to..."

Shen Li said: "I won't."

Yu Qiuyi felt as if her heart had been pinched, she almost shed tears from the pain, she blinked her eyes to hold back the tears, "No, it's okay, I'll teach you. Is your stomach still hurting? Have you taken your medicine? Shall I take you to the hospital?"

Shen Li was not used to this sudden concern, so he politely refused subconsciously.

Seeing Shen Li's reaction, Yu Qiuyi thought to herself that she was pushing too fast and the child couldn't adapt for a while, so it's better to take it slowly.

So she changed the subject and took out a box from her bag, "Birthday gift."

Shen Li reached out to take it, opened the box and took a look. It was a car key, a small golden bull on a black background.

Shen Li glanced at Yu Qiuyi without saying a word, and accepted the gift.

Seeing that he accepted it, Yu Qiuyi thought he liked it, smiled, and said, "Boys really like these."

Shen Li rubbed the box in his hand, but didn't speak.

Ms. Yu left after eating, Shen Li sent her away, and it was already raining outside when they drove home.

He parked the car in the garage, and when he came out of the garage door, he was in a daze for a while. He didn't wake up until he was hit by the raindrops blown by the wind. He entered the house under the raindrops, and he didn't realize it until he changed his shoes and stood at the entrance I was born with bouts of exhaustion.

After changing clothes and taking a shower, I started to have a fever at night, which was quickly subsided after taking antipyretic medicine.

Shen Li lost energy after tossing all day and went to bed early.

Gu Yi called before going to bed.

Shen Li lay lazily on the bed and chatted with Gu Yi casually, hiding the fact that he was sick, and briefly talked about what happened to see the lady today.

"She gave me a car that I couldn't fit in the garage."

Gu Yi asked him, "Do you like the gift she gave you?"

Shen Li was silent for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't like it."

"What did she give before?"

"Clothes, shoes, watches, etc."

Gu Yi nodded, knowing it well, "It's not convenient for me to comment, as long as you know it in your heart."

Shen Li said softly, "I know, Shen Congli and I have let go, it's just that she can't make it through herself."

Shen Li didn't like this topic very much, "I can't fit the car here, let's go there."

Gu Yi snorted lightly, reluctantly, "Just stuff me with things you don't like?"

Shen Li persuaded softly: "This is the most valuable thing I can give so far."

Gu Yi scolded lightly, "I already got the most valuable thing."

Shen Li was puzzled, "What?"

Gu Yi smiled proudly, "I got it ten years ago."

Shen Li realized what he was talking about, his ears turned red, and said with a smile, "Do you want it?"

Gu Yi nodded, "Yes, although I don't like her very much, it was given by my mother-in-law. It is your dowry. I will keep it first."

Shen Li blushed, "It's a bride price!"

Gu Yi laughed twice, "Oh, really?"

Shen Li: ...It seems that he got involved.
