Chapter 6 Visit
As for the elder brother Xuanzhu, although Xuanli has never seen him since he was taken to Yanyu Town in the south of the Yangtze River at the age of three, he still receives photos from him every winter.

He wrote in the attached letter: I heard that there has never been snow in the south of the Yangtze River, but the snow scene in Kyoto every year is very beautiful.When you return to Kyoto after your health is recovered, I will take you to build a snowman together.

After learning to write, she would also send him pictures of the spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River every spring, and she would write about the interesting things that happened in the past year in the reply letter.

But now that she has returned to Kyoto, she has no chance to build a snowman with him again.

Xuanzhu died in the fire in the courtyard eight years ago, and Xuanli did not receive his postcard that winter.

Xuanli packed her things and went back to the welcome hall.Xuan Ran was half paralyzed on the chair, with her legs slanted, and she could still clearly hear the sound of her swiping the video.

"Cousin, can you take me to visit grandpa?"

Xuan Ran's dangling legs stopped, she moved the phone away, and raised her eyes to look at her.

"I have something to do and I can't leave now, so go there by yourself, I'll send you the address," she said, and opened the WeChat QR code, "Scan it."

Xuan Li tugged at the corner of her clothes, "I don't have a smartphone."

Xuan Ran laughed mockingly, and took back the phone, "What a bumpkin! Then I'll just read the address verbally, you'd better remember it, don't blame me if you can't find it."

Xuan Li lowered her eyes, "Okay."

Walking out of the courtyard door, a breeze blows head-on, and the leaves of the sycamore trees on the side of the street rustle.

Xuan Li stood at the door for a while, then closed the door carefully, tightly clutching the gold card that Jiang Cheng gave her with her right hand in her pocket.

She only left 200 yuan in cash on her body, all of which were scattered and neatly placed in the little rabbit satchel.

The little rabbit satchel was put on by Xuanli when she was in the second year of junior high school, at a ring stall in the town next door.She never bought things in the market randomly, but when she saw the satchel, she took out the only ten yuan she had on her body without hesitation, and she won it once, and she has been carrying it until now.

Xuanli didn't know the way when she came to Kyoto for the first time, so after leaving the alley, she reached out to hail a taxi at the street corner.

"Where are you going?"

The driver rolled down the window. He was a bearded uncle with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Go to Kyoto First Hospital."

The smoke floated in front of her eyes, choking her to cough a few times.

"Fifty."

Xuan Li paused when she pulled the car door, "Isn't it a meter?"

The driver bit his cigarette butt and clicked his tongue impatiently, "Are you going to get in? I just gave you a cheap price because I happened to be on the way. Others will pay more than that!"

The car has been parked on the side of the road for 2 minutes, and the cars behind have blocked half the street.

A driver poked his head out and cursed: "The one in front can't go! This is a one-way street!"

The taxi driver glanced at her, "Did you hear that? Can you get in the car?"

Xuanli had no choice but to open the car door and sit in.

The smell of smoke in the car was even stronger. She opened the car window to breathe, but her eyes were sour from the choking.

She waved her hand to try to disperse the smoke, "Uncle, can I trouble you to put out the cigarette?"

The driver glanced at her through the rearview mirror in the car, but didn't speak, still smoking.

Xuan Li coughed a few times, deliberately hoarse: "I have asthma."

He immediately put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, turned on the ventilation in the car, and was eager to get rid of the relationship.

"If you get sick in a while, don't rely on me."

She pursed her lips silently and looked out the window.

Before the seats warmed up, the car stopped suddenly.

"arrive."

Xuan Li looked around in astonishment at the nearby buildings, but found no hospital.

"Kyoto No. 500 Hospital is not a place for ordinary people to live in. It is heavily guarded inside and out, and foreign vehicles are not allowed to enter within [-] meters." The driver stretched out his hand, "Get out of the car and give me the money."

She took out a [-] from her bag and handed it to him, opened the door and got out of the car.

Xuan Li walked around for more than ten minutes before finding the gate of the hospital. As soon as she reached the gate, she was stopped by security guards.

He held his baton in front of him, "What are you doing here?"

She was taken aback, and said in a weak voice, "I'm here to visit the patient."

The security guard turned pale for a moment when he saw her frightened, and unconsciously lowered his voice: "Which ward do you live in, and what is it called?"

Xuan Li said the ward number that Xuan Ran mentioned without saying a word, "4105, Xuan Zhiyuan."

"Master Xuan does live here, but not in 4105."

If it were someone else, the security guard would definitely think that some unknown person came to inquire about Xuan Zhiyuan's ward.But the little girl in front of her, who looked soft and weak, didn't look like a bad person at first glance. She directly told her the specific ward and took her to the downstairs of the inpatient building.

Xuan Li bowed to him, "Thank you uncle."

The security guard smiled and waved goodbye to her, biting his fist when he turned around.

"I'm clearly only in my early thirties, how can I be an uncle!"

Xuanli entered the elevator and pressed the button for the 6th floor.The disease type of patients on each floor is posted on the door, and the sixth floor is the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine.

She walked through the wards and stopped at the door of 6108. The electronic screen at the door displayed Xuan Zhiyuan's name.

Xuanli took a deep breath and knocked lightly on the door.

An old but powerful voice sounded from inside, "Please come in."

Pushing the door open and entering, Xuan Zhiyuan thought it was Xuan Ran, he didn't look up, and still focused on reading the newspaper while wearing reading glasses.

"Isn't today Friday, you missed class again?"

"Grandpa, I'm Xuanli."
