Feed You Sweets - Chapter 22

Wei Ruxia opened her eyes until dawn, she came out of the room, and Wei Zishan was still sitting in the living room. Seeing her come out, Wei Zishan got up from the sofa and said, “Let’s go.”

They set off very early, the sky was not yet completely bright, the sky was white, and the sun had not yet emerged.

The weather in mid-November had become damp and cold. Wei Ruxia, who had never been afraid of the cold, closed the car windows after watching the morning sun for a while.

The car was full of morning humidity, and the silence between her and Wei Zishan.

Wei Zishan drove very fast, and the sun had just come out for a while when he arrived at his grandma’s house. The wooden fence of the grandmother’s house was closed tightly, and the flowers and plants of various colors competed in the small courtyard, making the house full of life.

Grandma always gets up early, but now she should be out with the door closed. Wei Ruxia turned her head and looked towards the direction of her home leading to the vegetable garden, and she saw the straight figure in the woods.

Li Suhe wore a straight dark brown trousers with a light gray shirt on top and a beige sweater outside. Holding a bamboo basket in one hand and a small iron in the other, she walked over the forest under the morning sun. There was still morning mist on the path in the forest, and grandma’s white hair was pierced by the sun, making her as if she was going to disappear into the shining sun.

When Li Suhe returned home last Monday, he took the medicine as directed by his doctor. This week, her body has become more and more tired. Anyhow, she was more comfortable when she woke up this morning. She went to the vegetable garden.

The potatoes in the vegetable garden have grown up, she went to plan some, washed them by the stream, and prepared to make crispy potato pancakes this morning. I haven’t cooked properly in recent days because of physical discomfort.

The bamboo basket in his hand is covered with potato seedlings, and on top are potatoes that are washed clean. Washing potatoes is done by putting the bamboo basket in the water. All the way back, the bamboo basket is pattered, and the water is almost dry when I get home.

Before she reached the door of her house, she looked up and saw Wei Ruxia and Wei Zishan waiting in front of her house. The father and daughter were standing on the side of the wooden fence and looking at her.

When Li Su and Li Su saw the two coming together, although the distance they stood still seemed very distant, she was still happy. A gentle light filled the old man’s eyes, but it was fleeting.

“Baby, why didn’t you go to school today on Monday?” Li Suhe asked.

With a cry of “baby”, Wei Ruxia’s heart seemed to be pinched. Her eyes were flushed with red blood on her eyes.

Wei Zishan walked over and took the bamboo basket in her hand. His voice was a little dumb, but his expression was still calm. He only looked at his mother and said, “Mom, you pack your things, let’s go to the hospital.”

During Li Suhe’s physical examination, there was a large area of ​​shadow, and the doctor initially concluded that it was tuberculosis. Later, the doctor approached Wei Zishan and told him that Li Su and his lungs were probably cancerous.

Wei Zishan took her to do a detailed examination again, and the result came out on Sunday afternoon, which was cancer, advanced lung cancer.

Together with his father, he helped grandma go through the hospitalization procedures. Wei Zishan was called by her grandma’s attending doctor. They wanted to discuss the time of the operation. Wei Ruxia went to the ward.

It was already afternoon, and the sun was shining through the glass windows on the corridors of the hospital, and the familiar smell of disinfectant made Wei Ruxia a little dazed. She spent more time in the hospital this year than she spent 15 years in the past. And every time she comes to the hospital, she is not the one who gets sick.

The mother of the first half of the year, and the grandmother of the second half of the year, Wei Ruxia’s heart seemed to be pulled down by a piece of iron, so that she couldn’t stand her chest when she walked.

Grandma will stay in the hospital for a long time. Wei Zishan asks a friend in the hospital for help and arranges a relatively quiet single ward at the end of the corridor.

The ward was facing the sun, and the sun illuminated the room warmly and brightly. Li Suhe was sitting on the hospital bed, turning his head and looking out the window.

She changed into hospital gowns, and the generous hospital gowns were still meticulously dressed by her, even her hair was neat and tidy, without a trace of messy hair.

The window screen was slightly moved by the wind. Li Suhe heard the door opening and turned around to see Wei Ruxia standing at the door.

Wei Ruxia looked at her with red eyes, unlike crying. She is a very strong and optimistic child, but she is still too young, and she has encountered a life change. With her company, she can bear it. But this time the variables were given to her, she might not be able to bear such a series of shocks.

She is tall and tall, with a slender and well-proportioned skeleton, and she is a little bit taller than when she first came to Ancheng. Obviously such a big child, but in her heart, will always be a small one.

Li Su and Wei Ruxia, who looked at the door, smiled on their lips and beckoned.

“Come here, baby, grandma hold it.”

As Li Suhe thought, Wei Ruxia is optimistic and strong. But not as she thought, she seemed to be able to bear the changes this time.

Wei Ruxia was lying in her grandma’s arms. Her body was not completely tainted by the smell of disinfectant water. Wei Ruxia and Li Suhe said to her grandma as they heard what Wei Zishan and the doctor said.

“Grandma, the doctor said that the condition can be controlled after the operation, and it will be fine after control.”

“That’s it.” Li Suhe touched her face and said with a smile: “Then I will cooperate with the treatment and live a good life. I can watch the baby graduate from high school, graduate from university, go to work, get married and have children~”

Luo Tao went to school by herself today. In the morning, he waited at the door of Wei Ruxia’s house for more than half an hour, called her and sent a text message, and she only replied, “I don’t go to school if I have something to do today.”

He and Wei Ruxia only had this exchange today.

Luo Tao had asked his mother, but Yang Shuru said he didn’t know. When I came home from school in the afternoon, Yang Shuru spoke to him during dinner.

“Ruxia’s grandmother is hospitalized, she is very ill and will be hospitalized for surgery.”

After a pause with the fingers of the chopsticks, Luo Tang looked up at Yang Shuru. Yang Shuru felt a little heavy when he heard the bad news.

Li Suhe is going to be hospitalized, and Wei Zishan is the attending doctor entrusted with her relationship. Luo Tang’s grandfather is a leading surgeon in China. He once served as the dean of Ancheng Central Hospital. Although he has now retired, his relationship is still there.

When Wei Zishan found her, Yang Shuru knew that Li Suhe had such a big deal.

She and Li Su didn’t get along well, but they had a very good impression of the old man. In the past, I occasionally met her repairing flowers and plants in the yard. She was an old man who lived a very delicate and decent life.

“Ruxia didn’t go to school today.” Yang Shuru looked at Luo Tang and asked.

“Yeah.” Luo Tao put down his chopsticks and wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin. He has just changed into his school uniform and is now wearing a silver-white coat and a pair of black sweatpants. He wanted to take Amon out for a walk after dinner.

After drinking, Luo Tang got up and said, “I’ll go out.”

Luo Tao did not go to the hospital. He put the skateboard on the side of the road where the main entrance of the Love apartment turned, and sat down cross-legged. Throwing the flying saucer in his hand to the end of the road, Amansaya ran to pick it up.

When Wei Ruxia came back, she happened to see Aman picking up the flying saucer and returning to Luo Tao. The boy was wearing a black baseball cap, sitting on a skateboard with his head slightly lowered. Like the first time I saw him, he could only see his tall nose and slightly pursed lips. He raised his hand and touched Amang, his slender and white fingers wandered between Amang’s hair, which was very beautiful.

“Luo Tang.” Wei Ruxia called.

After pausing the fingers on the top of Aman’s head, the young man turned his head, revealing a pure and gentle face. When he saw Wei Ruxia, his dark eyes blinked slightly, and he got up and stood up.

Luo Tang took the skateboard and led Amang and Wei Ruxia side by side on the way home. Wei Ruxia was driven back by her grandma. She asked her to come back to rest and go to school tomorrow. With Wei Zishan taking care of her there, Wei Ruxia returned obediently.

It was dark, and the street lights on the road were lonely on, stretching the shadows of two people and one dog very long.

Luo Tang loosened the rope, and Amang ran away first. The two looked at the back of Amang running wildly, and Luo Tao asked Wei Ruxia: “Have you eaten?”

Wei Ruxia looked away, smiled at him and said: “I have eaten it, the hospital’s sick meal is not very delicious, but it is not sweet anyway.”

Wei Zishan asked Yang Shuru’s relationship to Li Su and arranged the ward. He probably also knew about her grandma’s illness. Before Luo Tang could ask, Wei Ruxia said it himself.

“My grandmother is in good health. The doctor said that she will arrange an operation next week. If the operation is successful, she will be discharged after the Spring Festival.”

It’s almost December now, and it’s autumn and winter with short days and long nights. The time actually flies quickly.

The time the two talked has reached the door of the house. Wei Ruxia raised her head and glanced at the courtyard of Luo Tang’s house. She raised her eyes slightly and said in surprise, “You have planted it?”

Luo Tang’s yard is full of lawns, and the endless flowers and branches are particularly eye-catching among the grass.

Thinking of this, Wei Ruxia thought of her endless flowers, her mind was blank, she didn’t know where to put it.

“It was planted last night.” Luo Tao replied.

Wei Ruxia smiled and raised her eyes to look at Luo Tang. She didn’t sleep all day and night, and her mind was a little sleepy. Rubbing his temples, Wei Ruxia said, “I should go home and sleep.”

She turned around, put her finger on the code lock, and touched the code key with her fingertips. Wei Ruxia turned her head and looked at Luo Tao, who was still standing behind her, and asked, “Are everyone going to leave in the end?”

Luo Tang’s face under the brim of the hat was illuminated by the street lamp, and Qingjun’s eyebrows carried Wei Ruxia’s invisible look. The young man’s voice was clear, like a clear spring water, gurgling by, driving away her sleepiness.

“I do not know.”

He can accompany her to school, and he can accompany her through this life.

Wei Ruxia was stunned for a moment at Luo Tang’s words. When she came back to her senses, she looked at Luo Tang, her eyes curled and she smiled. She touched the code lock and said, “Okay.”

He said at the beginning: Isn’t there still me?

Wei Ruxia walked through the yard and arrived at the door of the house. After entering the password, Wei Ruxia opened the door and walked in. Inside the heavy door is an empty and dark home.

After closing the door, all the strength supporting her was instantly pulled away. Wei Ruxia sat on the ground, leaning her head against the door, tears bursting out of her eyes.

After her grandmother was hospitalized, Wei Ruxia started running around the school and the hospital, and Wei Zishan’s work gradually dropped. He still didn’t pay much attention to her, but it was much better than the former two enemies who had not met each other.

Li Suhe’s operation was quite successful, but there is no guarantee that there will be a possibility of recurrence. She was hospitalized after the operation, and stayed in this hospitalization until the winter vacation.

As soon as the winter vacation arrived, Wei Ruxia simply moved into the hospital with her things to concentrate on taking care of her grandma. Wei Zishan asked Aunt Li to cook regularly and send it to the hospital every day. Wei Ruxia was in the hospital to accompany Li Suhe and help her deliver something.

After the operation, Li Suhe lost a lot of weight, and the hospital gown looked more generous. She was sitting on the bed, and Wei Ruxia next to her was raising her bed. Li Suhe looked at Wei Ruxia, smiled and asked, “Isn’t the baby cold?”

Now that the winter has entered, Wei Ruxia wears only a short coat with a sweater underneath and trousers underneath. Her legs are long and slender, looking extremely thin.

“I’m wearing cashmere pants inside.” Wei Ruxia grabbed her trouser legs and smiled and showed her grandma the layer of cashmere pants under her pants.

Li Suhe smiled and patted her leg, and said, “Is it cold in the south in winter?”

Humidity and coldness is indeed much colder than dryness and coldness, but Dongzhen is in the far north, and the lowest temperature of dryness and coldness is minus 30 or 40 degrees, so she can actually handle the coldness of minus 10 degrees in the south.

She is also afraid of Li Su and worried when she wears cashmere pants. In fact, she is not cold at all, but a little hot.

“It’s okay.” Wei Ruxia raised the quilt to her grandma and asked: “What do you want to eat at noon? I told Aunt Li.”

“I really want to go back to the Spring Festival.” Li Suhe said, “I haven’t had the Spring Festival with our baby yet.”

The problem was interrupted by her grandma. Wei Ruxia turned her head to look at her grandma. She pursed her lips. Thinking of the hospital arrangements, she would definitely not be able to leave the hospital during the Spring Festival.

Sitting down by the bed, Wei Ruxia said, “You can live in the hospital.”

Reaching out to pin Wei Ruxia’s bangs behind her ears, the girl’s cheeks were white and her face was much hotter than her fingertips, she felt the temperature of her fingertips, and Wei Ruxia said, “That’s different. When I get home, I can make rice cakes, glutinous rice balls, dumplings, and take you to make lanterns.”

In the hearts of the elderly, the Spring Festival is still the biggest festival of the year. When I am at home with my relatives, preparing lively, watching the children eat their own meals, I feel satisfied and warm.

This year’s Spring Festival is not working. Wei Ruxia was thinking about how to comfort her grandma. At this time, the phone rang, she glanced at it, and the grandma next to her said: “Luo Yan?”

After all, Wei Ruxia has few friends in Ancheng, and Luo Tao sends her almost every call and text message. Wei Ruxia smiled, said “yes”, and then answered the phone.

Just after the winter vacation yesterday, Wei Ruxia went home to pack up and came to the hospital, and never contacted Luo Tao again. Thought he was looking for something to do with him, but Luo Yuan called and wanted to see Li Suhe.

Luo Tao and his family don’t usually live with their grandparents, so during the winter and summer vacations, they basically go back to the Luo family mansion. The Luo Family Mansion is near Anjiang in the south of Ancheng, not close to the city.

After visiting Li Suhe this time, he will return to the Luo family mansion with his mother tomorrow morning. If you want to meet Wei Ruxia again, it will be after the start of the Lantern Festival.

After the two met, they saw each other almost every day. Thinking of not seeing each other for so long, Wei Ruxia felt a little inexplicable.

Li Suhe was particularly happy when he heard that Luo Yan was coming. She could see the weight of Luo Tang in Wei Ruxia’s heart. Although the two were not childhood sweethearts, they would grow up with each other in the future. Even if they get married in the future, they will still be each other’s best friends.

Soon after hanging up the phone with Luo Tang, Wei Ruxia heard a knock on the door. He didn’t expect him to come so quickly. Wei Ruxia hurried to open the door. Once the door opened, Wei Ruxia had a handful of things in her hand. Then she smelled a scent of flowers.

Luo Tang bought a bunch of flowers. He was standing behind the bouquet, wearing a black overcoat and a gray and black plaid cashmere scarf around his slender neck. The teenager was wearing a baseball cap and a white mask. When Wei Ruxia looked up at him, he was pulling the mask down. As soon as the mask was pulled, the white face of the boy was exposed, and Wei Ruxia’s eyes opened slightly.

Having seen it so many times, Wei Ruxia is still amazed by Luo Tang’s appearance, clean, comfortable and beautiful.

Seeing Wei Ruxia’s light brown eyes widened, she was holding a bunch of flowers, and her white face was hidden behind the lily, making her temperament dusty. Luo Yan’s throat moved slightly, he pursed his lips and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Holding the flower, Wei Ruxia just smiled without answering. She got up and stepped aside and said, “Come in.”

“Luo Yan is coming?” Inside, Li Suhe had already heard the voice at the door and called out with a smile.

Luo Yan entered the door, nodded at Li Suhe and slightly, and called out: “Grandma.”

When she was just hospitalized, Yang Shuru brought Luo Tao to visit once. Luo Tao called her “Grandma Li” at the time, and later asked her to correct her as “Grandma”.

He has a good relationship with Wei Ruxia, and Li Suhe also treats him like a half-grandson in his heart, calling him “grandma” and kinder.

“Hey.” Li Suhe watched Luo Yan and Wei Ruxia come in together, and said with a smile: “Are you buying me flowers? Thank you, I like flowers the most.”

Seeing Luo Yuan, Li Yuhe also forgot to go home for the Spring Festival. Wei Ruxia smiled and said: “Luo Yuan, you help me peel an apple for my grandma, and I will plant the flowers.”

Luo Tang responded, pulled a chair and sat down, and took the apple and fruit knife on the small table in front of the window. The boy held the apple with his fingers, and his symmetrical knuckles were slightly white, delicate and beautiful.

Wei Ruxia arranged Luo Tang to arrange it with ease, and Luo Tang also obeyed her arrangement. The relationship between the two seemed to be better than during the National Day.

Li Suhe looked at the young boy’s low profile face, she was not in good spirits, and she seemed to have exhausted her energy just talking to Luo Yan and Wei Ruxia.

Riwei Ruxia was receiving water in the bathroom, and the sound of water from the tap was gradually lost like her life.

“Luo Yuan, can grandma ask you something?” Li Suhe looked at Luo Yuan kindly, with a peaceful smile on his lips.

The movement of his hand did not stop, Luo Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at the old man, and said, “You said.”

When Li Suhe looked at the young man’s eyebrows, his voice suddenly lightened, as if deliberately not to be heard by others.

“Take care of Xia Xia, she has no other friends.”

The old man’s words stopped Luo Yan’s hand movement. He looked at Li Su and his thin face, as if to her, and as if to himself.

“It doesn’t matter, it’s enough for her to have me.”

The author has something to say:

Tangtang: I can accompany you to school, and I can accompany you through this life.
