The rest of your life is too long, you are too unforgettable

Chapter 23
There was a layer of frost on Mu Zheng's face, even worse than when he was arguing with Liang Zhixuan just now, and he glanced at him coldly: "It's nothing interesting, it has nothing to do with you."

"You all mentioned my name, how can you call me irrelevant?"

Mu Zheng felt unspeakably irritated, so he stopped talking to him, pulled off his tie and walked upstairs.

"Hey, I haven't finished talking yet, where are you going?" Mu Rong called him loudly, "The food is ready, why don't you come down to eat?"

It's really inexplicable, why did he come to have a meal, but in the end he was alone... What's going on with them?

When Liang Zhixuan rushed to the hospital, Yuan Bao was still queuing up at the pediatric outpatient clinic. Because of the fever, he leaned listlessly in the arms of the housekeeper, and when she saw her coming, he leaned over and said in a low voice, "Aunt Liang, where is my mother? "

She felt sore in her heart, and rubbed his little face lightly: "Mom has to work and can't come back today. Aunt Liang will accompany you, okay?"

Although disappointed, Yuan Bao still nodded sensiblely.

After a series of examinations, the doctor diagnosed him as chickenpox, so he not only had a fever, but also had a red rash on his body.

Liang Zhixuan was a little puzzled: "Don't children get vaccinated now? How can they still get chickenpox?"

The doctor said: "This is not certain. The vaccine is not 100% immune, and a small number of children will still be infected. Don't worry too much, this is a self-limiting disease, pay attention to observation, and he will recover in a few days .”

Having said that, the doctor still prescribed antiviral drugs to hang him with water.Xiao Yuanbao was very brave. Although he was too scared to see the injection, he didn't cry.Liang Zhixuan won a bed for him in the infusion ward. After the water was hung up, the housekeeper aunt left first, and she was the only one with him.

She bought some fruit, peeled the oranges and fed them into his mouth.The kid who has to eat is finally a little happier: "Aunt Liang, you are so kind, can you stay with me tonight? Will Uncle Mu insist on calling you back?"

It's only been a few times, and even the children have begun to understand Mu Zheng's personality.

She fed him another piece of orange: "Don't worry, I will stay with you until your mother comes back."

In the evening, she took Yuanbao home and found that there was no food in the refrigerator, so she had to order takeaway for dinner.After eating and grooming the child, the rash on the body will gradually turn into herpes, so be careful to avoid it and avoid breaking it.

Being sick is always uncomfortable, so Xiao Yuanbao asked her, "Aunt Liang, did you have chickenpox when you were young?"

Liang Zhixuan thought about it seriously and said, "It doesn't seem to be the case, but I have survived some other infectious diseases."

Thinking about it now, she was very lively and active when she was a child, because her mouth was sweet and well-behaved, and her friends were willing to play with her, and because her mother was a kindergarten teacher, she was also immersed in an environment full of children after school, and the children she came into contact with were also very happy. More.At that time, there were not so many advanced vaccines. She had the mumps, which is the most common infection for children, and even the more dangerous scarlet fever. She had never had chickenpox.

The doctor said that chickenpox would be very painful and itchy during the course of the disease. She should try her best to pay attention to the child and not let him scratch the rash.

Seeing Xiao Yuanbao who was lying beside her and sleeping unsteadily, she felt distressed and helpless.

The life of single mothers with children is extremely difficult, and it cannot be summed up and predicted whether they are brave or not when making choices.Let me ask if she was alone with the child like Cheng Jie, and today the child was sick and she couldn't make it back thousands of miles away, and there was no one around who could take care of her at any time, how anxious she would be.

Yuan Bao's body temperature rose again at night, so she didn't dare to sleep, so she poured hot water and patiently cooled him physically, and gently blocked his hand when he unconsciously reached out to scratch the herpes.

After taking such good care of her all night, the next day the child became more energetic and had the appetite to sit at the table to eat by himself, so she was a little relieved.

Her mobile phone was set to vibrate, and in fact, there were basically no calls to find her.Mu Zheng didn't make a single phone call, nor did he receive any text messages. It seemed that the two of them had fallen out again this time.

Cheng Jie's flight was delayed for four hours due to the heavy rain in Nancheng, and it was already dark when she rushed home.Liang Zhixuan had already described the illness to her in detail on the phone. She knew that the child had chickenpox, but she still couldn't help worrying. As soon as she entered the house, she squatted next to Yuan Bao, looked left and right, and asked with concern: "Does it hurt? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Don’t grab it with your hands, it won’t look good if you leave a scar.”

"No, you see that Uncle Guan Long has a scar on his face, and it's very long!" He made a gesture, "But I think he is very good-looking. Last time I asked him why he had a scar on his face, and he said Scars are a man's medal, and a boy is not ashamed to have scars."

Cheng Jie was not happy to hear him mention Guan Long: "Don't keep talking about him, he is different from us."

"What's different?" Xiao Yuanbao asked with his head tilted.

Cheng Jie was at a loss for words, and Liang Zhixuan smiled beside him: "Tong Yan Wuji, Sister Cheng, why are you still fussing with the child? Quickly ask him what he wants to eat, he was talking about the dishes his mother made yesterday."

"Oh, that's right, baby, what do you want to eat, mom will make it for you."

Little Yuanbao lowered his eyes innocently: "I...I want to eat the buffet at Uncle Guan's place now."

There are strawberry muffins, chocolate cakes, chestnut cakes, unlimited ice cream, and bone broth-based ramen.

Cheng Jie sighed: "If I knew that I should not have taken you there to sing K, after I came back, I often talked about eating the buffet there. Is it so delicious?"

No, he was aroused by this topic again, but he was still sick, and it was raining so heavily outside that he couldn't go anywhere at all.

Liang Zhixuan couldn't bear to see the child disappointed, so he comforted him: "Uncle Guan's is not a special restaurant, but a place for adults to sing and have fun. Children are not welcome to go so late, do you want to be an unpopular person? ?”

Yuan Bao shook his head.

"That's right, we can go during the day, but we must get well first. Now that you have chickenpox, the doctor says you should avoid food, and you can't eat many things. You don't want to look at the table in front of you. Touch, you can only eat vegetables, fruits and porridge, right?"

Yuan Bao whispered: "...I can just eat ramen."

"What's so special about ramen, mom will cook it for you! Don't you love noodles cooked by mom the most?"

Xiao Yuanbao still felt a little disappointed, Liang Zhixuan patted him lightly: "Take care of your body first, and we will go eat when you recover from your illness."

Yuan Bao's eyes lit up: "Really?" He held Cheng Jie's hand as if asking for authority, and said, "Mom, can you really take me to eat?"

Cheng Jie looked at the increasingly dense blisters on his face, and couldn't bear to refuse: "Yes, but you must get better soon."

Yuan Bao smiled happily, and grabbed Liang Zhixuan again, "Aunt Liang, are you coming too?"

"Well, I'm coming too."

"Is Uncle Mu coming too? Don't quarrel with him, okay?"

Liang Zhixuan paused and said, "Okay."

After leaving Cheng Jie's house, the rain outside hadn't stopped, it was pouring heavily, and it seemed that there was no possibility of it stopping in a short time.

It's the rainy season in Nancheng, and the weather is gradually starting to heat up.

Cheng Jie stuffed her with an umbrella, but the rain was so heavy that even an umbrella couldn't cover her. If she walked 100 meters, she would be completely soaked.

She managed to call a taxi to go back, but when they heard about the location, they were not willing to run, because they thought it was too far away.Everyone in the villa area drives, and no one will take a taxi in this kind of horrible weather. He probably has to take an empty trip, so he refuses to use the meter. The price is 200 yuan, whether he likes to go or not.

Those who live in the rich area are not necessarily famous ladies and famous families, they may also be penniless people like her.But Liang Zhixuan didn't want him to pay too much attention to himself, so he didn't argue with him, so he said as much as he wanted.On such a heavy rainy night, as a single girl, she was most afraid of the driver's evil intentions when taking a taxi, so she took out her phone, pretended to dial, and said according to the vehicle information on the back of the driver's seat: "I'm back now. Well, blue A colored taxi with the number Nan T8961, come and pick me up at the intersection!...Well, bye."

The driver was driving in the seat, and she hung up the phone softly, but her heart couldn't help feeling sad.

In the past, when she came home late and took a taxi, she would always call her father or younger brother as soon as she got in the car and tell them her location and license plate number. The family would be concerned and concerned, and she would feel at ease knowing that someone at home was waiting for her to go back.But now, with her home gone, she didn't even know who to call to report her safety. No one really cared where she was, what she was doing, and whether she could get home safely on a rainy night.

When we got back to the villa, it was still raining heavily.From the taxi to the eaves, Liang Zhixuan was completely soaked, her clothes didn't have a piece of dry cloth, and she was wearing flat shoes, but the soles of her feet seemed to be stepping directly into a puddle.

The wet clothes wrapped her body to absorb the body heat, she shivered slightly from the cold, but stood at the door and rang the doorbell several times, but no one came to answer the door.

There was no light in the house, Mrs. Wang went back to the countryside to organize weddings and ceremonies at home, and she hadn't come back yet. It just so happened that Housekeeper Zhao was also on vacation for the long vacation, and Mu Zheng was alone at home.Even if he was at home at night, he didn't like bright lights, so he might have fallen asleep by now.

She couldn't knock on the door, and she didn't have the key, so she had to call him.

"Hello?" His tone was flat, without any emotion.

She could only bite the bullet and say: "I'm back, at the gate downstairs, can you come and open the door for me?"

Mu Zheng seemed to pause for a moment before he said coldly: "You still know to come back? Xiao Wu is right, you are very angry, I thought you left and left, why are you coming back?"

She wiped off the drops of water flowing from the tip of her hair to her forehead: "I went to take care of Yuan Bao. He was sick and his mother was not around. I told you yesterday."

"Yeah, you've got a knife for your friend. There's no other place to go on such a rainy day. Why didn't she see you off or simply keep you for another night?"

Liang Zhixuan wondered if she was afraid that you would be moody and lose your temper. I wish I could live outside and never come back.But she couldn't tell him this, so she could only lower her posture again and again: "It's my fault, can you come and open the door for me?"

But Mu Zheng said: "What's the hurry, you just stay at the door, it's good to learn a lesson."

He hung up the phone right away. Liang Zhixuan is really not a temperless person, but now the wet clothes are sticking to her body like a layer of sticky and cold skin wrapping her. I can only stand under the eaves and watch the rain fall endlessly at night.

A few flowerpots were placed under the eaves on the other side of the wall, and an uninvited guest was lying in the flowerpots, hiding from the rain just like her.

It turned out to be the one-eyed cat.

She smiled, knelt down to tease it, but she was afraid of scaring it, so she gently pinched her lips and called it: "Cat...here, look here, remember me?"

The one-eyed cat looked back at her vigilantly, as if feeling no threat, ignored her, and turned his head coolly.

She didn't mind, she sat down in the corner by the door, and talked softly to the cat: "I thought you wouldn't come because you were frightened that day. Have you had a full stomach these days? Some people have fed you here, yours Come, my friends, why don't you come?"

Speaking of this, she remembered the scene of Mu Rong squatting in the garden feeding the cat that day, and her heart trembled again.

The one-eyed cat ignored her, but at last she still had a companion to accompany her on this rainy night, so she wasn't too lonely.She even thought of what Jay Chou sang: The most beautiful thing is not the rainy day, but the eaves where you once escaped the rain.

It's a pity that she doesn't have such a beautiful and romantic first love. The person she met when she first fell in love was Mu Zheng.

Probably getting tired easily after thinking too much, she gradually felt weak physically, her eyelids could not help but fight, and finally fell asleep while sitting by the door.

Mu Zheng was so angry that she might not be able to get in tonight, so she could only wait at the door and try to find a way tomorrow morning.

She fell into a drowsy sleep, and suddenly felt the glaring light shining on her body, so she raised her hand to cover her eyes, and tried hard to open her eyes.

The light disappeared quickly, and before she could figure out what was going on, she felt someone approaching, reaching out to touch her head, and then her body suddenly flew into the air, and she was hugged in his arms.

The temperature and smell of the embrace are very familiar, but she still couldn't help struggling a bit, Mu Zheng said in a bad tone: "Don't move around, you have a fever."

His body temperature comforted her, and as she staggered all the way back to the room, she realized that the dazzling light just now was the headlights of the car, and he had just returned from outside.

"So you're not at home... where did you go?" She chatted with him purely out of words, without expecting him to answer.

"It's something." He was impatient, and couldn't help being sarcastic, "Didn't you go to take care of the sick, why did you get sick instead?"

In fact, she didn't know, she didn't feel particularly uncomfortable, maybe she had a fever because of the rain and cold.

However, this time the illness was menacing, not so easy.Not only did she have a fever and cough, but she also developed a red rash on her body, and common cold medicines were almost completely ineffective.Mu Zheng sent her to the hospital. The doctor diagnosed her with chickenpox and developed chickenpox pneumonia. He told them with a serious expression that the condition was serious and they had better be hospitalized for observation.

The rash on Liang Zhixuan's face had already given rise to herpes vesicularis. She looked at the mirror in the bathroom and cried, wow, like a child.

Mu Zheng sneered: "Now you know how powerful you are? You have the nerve to cry because you're such a grown man?"

The little nurse who came to dispense the medicine couldn't stand it any longer: "You are her boyfriend, how can you talk like that? Girls love to be beautiful, and they usually worry about acne in front of the mirror for a long time, but now there are such terrible blisters all over their faces. It must be very sad, and you should comfort her. Also, don’t scratch it with your hands, no matter how painful or itchy it is, you’ll be fine if the blister disappears on its own, otherwise it will really leave a scar.”

Liang Zhixuan didn't seem to hear it. There was only one thought in her mind, which was that she couldn't see people anymore. Now she really couldn't even go to work. What would she do if she lived like this for the rest of her life?
The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and tears fell. Mu Zheng watched her cry, and after a while he calmly said: "Don't cry, isn't crying more ugly?"

It's okay not to say, but when she said it, she cried even harder, and the blisters on her face where tears slid down were a little itchy, and she couldn't help touching them with her hands.Mu Zheng grabbed her wrist: "I told you not to cry and you still cried, and I told you I can't arrest you and still arrested you. I really don't want this face, do I?"

Liang Zhixuan cried until she hiccupped: "Don't worry about it! It's better if your face is ruined. If you become ugly, you won't like it. Just let me go!"

Mu Zheng sneered: "Am I begging you to stay with me now? Don't put gold on your face. When you are not ugly, I am the only one who wants you."

Perhaps sick people are particularly vulnerable. Liang Zhixuan felt sad for a while, and after coughing continuously, he coughed up blood and was short of breath.

The doctor said it was a typical symptom of pneumonia, but he still invited Mu Zheng out after he arrived.He stood dazedly at the door, his hands hanging by his sides, clenched and loosened, and he closed his eyes as if to see the scene of her coughing up blood staining his palms, and it was the first time in his adult life that he felt such deep fear.

When Mu Rong rushed to the hospital, he saw Mu Zheng sitting on a chair outside the ward, propping his forehead with one hand, covering most of his face with his palm.

It was rare for him to sit down beside him seriously: "Brother, what's going on? Okay, why did you get sick and hospitalized?"

When he heard the news that Liang Zhixuan was hospitalized, he was terrified. He had seen these two people quarreling before. The ground-shaking battle... He was really worried that one of them would die one day, especially if Liang Zhixuan was a girl. , if something bad or bad happens, how can I explain to my parents?
Mu Zheng didn't speak for a long time, and Mu Rong became even more anxious. A doctor happened to come out, so he hurried forward to stop him: "Doctor, how is that...Liang Zhixuan?"

The doctor glanced at him, and then at Mu Zheng who was sitting on the chair beside him, and realized that they were twin brothers. Before he could speak, Mu Zheng said, "She's fine, she'll be fine."

Mu Rong turned to look at him.

His decisiveness is more like a self-suggestion. In fact, her condition is not very good. After the secondary infection of pneumonia, her condition worsened. The high fever has not subsided for two days, and the chicken pox is more and more ugly. If she looks in the mirror now, Definitely going to cry again.

But he would rather she cry and make a fuss than lie quietly on the bed like this.
