he likes me

Fortunately, life has made Ji Xuecheng difficult, so he started to run around for rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. He was so busy that he fell into bed every day and went to sleep with a digital pen in his hand.

He didn't have much time to think about Xu Yiran.

The old lady Dou upstairs is even busier. The stray dogs she takes in have not been vaccinated, and they have to register at the pet hospital.

So before Ji Xuecheng packed his luggage and followed Professor Lu to other provinces to sketch and leave, the old man was still wandering on the road, singing pop songs at the sound of the advertisements on the street.

The place I went to this time was the ethnic minority area that Ji Xuecheng dreamed of going to when he was in school, but failed to go. The scenery is original and there is no man-made development atmosphere.

This event organized by Professor Lu is specially for graduate students who are about to graduate, hoping to bring inspiration and inspiration to everyone.

Because of the winter vacation, Ji Xuecheng came along.

After finishing his sophomore year, he became pregnant and gave birth to a child. Later, Xu Yiran got him a place to go to a famous foreign art university for a master's degree. By chance, he caught the eye of Professor Lu and accepted the invitation to return to China as a teaching assistant.

His artistic attainments are good, but they are much worse than those of great artists.

Ji Xuecheng was aware of his shortcomings, so he worked extra diligently to follow Professor Lu's lectures. He was more eager to study than the students who were about to graduate. Every day when it was dawn, he went out to shop with the sweet potatoes that the owner of the hotel got up early in his pocket.

There is a family ancestral hall in this village, which has a long history. After the Revolutionary War, it was dilapidated and dilapidated, leaving only four broken walls and rotten roof tiles. The dilapidated wooden doors were tightly closed. There must be an illusion of being flush with the roof.

The reason why Ji Xuecheng first fell in love with this scenic spot was the intact glass windows on the wall, very characteristic of the Republic of China period, the glass was red and green.

He went back and forth several times, and he didn't have an idea in his mind, but he liked this place surprisingly, almost obsessed.

Only later did he know that the ancestral hall is a place that homeless people yearn for.

Chen Xiao also came to sketch, but he was not the graduate student of this batch, he paid his own money to follow here alone, the road belongs to everyone, no one can control the freedom of people who walk, Ji Xuecheng said nothing on the surface, In my heart, I crazily complained about the other party's behavior of stealing.

He still wanted to go back and show off his study results in front of that class of graduate students!

But before Ji Xuecheng slipped and fell on the mountain road a few times, Chen Xiao generously rescued his snow-white down jacket so that he would not wear it without a coat in the cold southwest mountainous area. This behavior deeply dispelled Ji Xuecheng's petty mind .

Several times in rainy and snowy weather, Ji Xuecheng actively and consciously walked with Chen Xiao.

The time for sketching this time was very short, and it was over in a little over a week. Ji Xuecheng set out on his way home with his unsatisfactory works.

Back in city c, there was a heavy snowfall, Ji Xuecheng sat on the bus home and worried.

It will be Chinese New Year in a few days, and he didn't buy anything for the New Year, so he didn't know what to bring to see Uncle Ji in the cemetery after the Chinese New Year.

After returning home to put down the luggage, open the window to let the air in. The succulents on the balcony were already frozen to death, and there was still a layer of frost on the corpses. Ji Xuecheng ruthlessly threw the succulent corpses into the trash can, washed his hands and started cleaning again , when he was in Xu's house, before the new year, he had to clean the inside and outside to make it look brand new. He didn't really replace the old furniture and utensils with a lot of money, but it was good to clean it up.

It was still afternoon when he came back, and it was already eight o'clock in the evening after he finished throwing out the last bag of garbage.

He was a little hungry, so he went to the small supermarket in the community to buy a bag of quick-frozen dumplings and cooked them at home. He also wondered why the old lady Dou upstairs hadn't come to him to watch TV dramas at this point. After eating a few dumplings, he poured a bowl of vinegar , he was a little worried, so he took a bowl of dumplings and wanted to go upstairs to have a look.

The heart-piercing coughing sound could be heard from the room through the door. The old man gasped for breath and moaned continuously, and coughed again without panting twice, and a dog barked after him, like a duet.

"Aunt Dou, I'm Xiao Ji, here I bring you dumplings." Ji Xuecheng knocked on the door with one hand, and with the other hand he held the dumplings steadily without spilling a drop of soup.

The old man's resistance is weak, and when he is sick, he will fall like a mountain, and he will tremble when he opens the door: "You are back, I don't have the energy to watch TV with you now."

Ji Xuecheng put the dumplings on the table, and raised his hand to measure the temperature on the forehead of the old lady Dou. The skin on the old man's forehead was dry and wrinkled. Ji Xuecheng felt the temperature on the back of his hand was hot. When he looked down, the old lady Dou's eyelids drooped, her face and neck All morbidly bloated.

"You have a fever!" He didn't say a few words of nonsense, he took a coat, a hat and a scarf and put it on for Granny Dou, and pulled her to go out: "Have you been to the hospital?"

"It's just a cold, and I took medicine before meals." Granny Dou didn't struggle, and half leaned on Ji Xuecheng's body: "My legs are not good, you walk slowly."

Ji Xuecheng hailed a taxi, sat down and told the driver to go to the district hospital, but Granny Dou yelled in a hoarse voice: "Which district hospital are you going to? Go to the city hospital. I haven't used much money in my medical insurance card yet." !"

Ji Xuecheng didn't argue with Granny Dou either, and drove Granny Dou to the city hospital quietly.

Getting off the car, the wind made his teeth rattle, Ji Xuecheng hugged the old lady Dou and walked to the emergency department, because he wanted to walk faster because of the coldness, but the old man coughed and couldn't straighten up, so Ji Xuecheng had to stand at the gate with his back against the wind, blocking the wind. People pat their backs for smoothness.

The doctor diagnosed it as acute pneumonia, and arranged for Mrs. Dou to stay in the hospital for one night for observation, but the two of them were unlucky, the ward was full and there was no space, so they had to hang water in the aisle with the medicine.

Ji Xuecheng took the medical record book to get the medicine and pay for it. He didn't expect to meet Uncle Li in the lobby who was rushing to the inpatient department with his bag on his back. While helping him pick up the medical records that fell on the ground: "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, so I'm sorry."

"Uncle Li"

Ji Xuecheng took the medical record from the other party's shocked gaze, seeing the other party coming in a hurry, thinking that the other party's family members were sick: "You are in a hurry, go get busy!"

"Master Ji is here to see Mr.?" Uncle Li grabbed Ji Xuecheng's hand a little excitedly, and the bag on his shoulder hung down to his arm, and he fished it back: "I'll take you to Mr.'s place."

Is Xu Yiran sick?

Ji Xuecheng's heart tightened, but he was pulled out by Uncle Li for a few meters. Realizing that Mrs. Dou was still waiting for him to come back in the aisle, she quickly broke away from the other party's hand: "Oh no, Uncle Li, you misunderstood, my upstairs neighbor is sick, I accompanied him to see a doctor."

After finishing speaking, Uncle Li turned his head, his eyes were complicated and changeable, as if he was blaming Ji Xuecheng for his heartlessness and indifference, he would rather accompany his neighbors to see a doctor than to see his former employer, he was heartbroken: "Aren't you going to see Mr. "

Ji Xuecheng was left speechless by his own brain hole, and felt as if he hadn't thought about it when he met Uncle Li's eyes. In order not to waste the other party's time, he replied vaguely: "I'll go there later, let my neighbor first After paying the fee, I took the medicine."

After the injection and the medicine, I will go there when I have time, preferably Xu Yiran's wife is not around.

Ji Xuecheng finished it in his heart, smiled and wanted to watch the other party leave. Who knew that Uncle Li was so real, standing beside Ji Xuecheng with his bag on his shoulders, saying that he could wait for him to pay the fee and take the medicine, and then go together.

It was impossible not to worry about Xu Yiran, Ji Xuecheng's mind was full of excuses for refusing to accompany Uncle Li to see Xu Yiran, but his feet moved involuntarily towards the inpatient department.

The number of elevators going up was constantly changing. Ji Xuecheng wanted to run away several times when the elevator stopped, but he couldn't move as if his feet were stuck.

After getting out of the elevator and following Uncle Li, he wanted to ask him several times, is Xu Yiran's family there?

When I got to the door of the ward, I was still thinking about what capacity I should go in with.

Before he could find his identity and prepare himself mentally, Uncle Li dragged him and pushed the door open.

"Mr. Xu, look, who is here?"

This was the first time Ji Xuecheng heard Uncle Li speak in such a playful tone, and he wanted to laugh a little out of place in his panic.

But when he looked up and saw Xu Yiran lying on the bed with a haggard face, he couldn't laugh. Is Xu Yiran's company going to close down?How did he lose so much weight in such a short period of time?Have you taken diet pills by mistake for meals?

He is so distressed.

Ji Xuecheng was so distressed that his face twisted, and his voice trembled: "You, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay." Xu Yiran's bright eyes dimmed just now, and he held the corner of his mouth with a smile to prevaricate him: "It's not to the extent that you need to come and see."

Ji Xuecheng felt that his heart was shrinking, as if being grasped by someone, and there was nowhere to vent the pain: "I didn't have to come, Uncle Li dragged me here."

Even if I can't see the light, it would be embarrassing for you to come to see you and care about you. Ji Xuecheng felt that he was a bit redundant, and it would be a waste of space to stop wherever he went, so he had to back away. He really didn't look good in front of a sick person: " I'm going back now, you, take care of yourself."

Ji Xuecheng retreated to the door and turned around and ran out, afraid that if he was a step too late, he would sit at the door and cry.

There was the creaking sound of the iron frame falling to the ground behind him, Ji Xuecheng stopped when he heard Uncle Li yelling, Mr., and was hugged from behind.

"What are you running for?"

Before Ji Xuecheng could answer, the people behind him forced his body back, faced him, and asked him angrily, "Why are you crying?"

Xu Yiran frowned, impatiently wiped his tears with his hands wrapped in gauze, and said in a helpless tone: "You don't want to come to see me, why are you so wronged?"

"I, I didn't want to come,"

Ji Xuecheng managed to stop the choking in his throat, but hiccupped uncontrollably, pulling him away from his sadness and falling into embarrassing silence.

"Then why are you crying?"

"I thought your company was going out of business," has worn you out and left you skinny.

"That's my business too." Xu Yiran still looked at him dissatisfied, feeling that he was not telling the truth.

"Oh"

That's none of my business, let me go?

Ji Xuecheng was still hiccupping, extremely embarrassed.
