Chapter 3 A little bit closer
Chapter 3 Get a little closer
Moonlight Cloud Sea's business is so good, Ning Lixia has long intended to open her own branch, and Ning Yu gave her half of the shares in the old store on the condition that she invest in the new store.No matter what, it wasn't her disadvantage, Ning Lixia feared that he would go back on his word, so he immediately agreed.
One or two small restaurants are insignificant to Ning Yu, but they are all Ning Lixia's painstaking efforts. She is afraid that the verbal agreement will not be accurate, so she urges him to sign a formal contract. There was no other way, so I had to postpone my departure for a day.
Decorating new stores, recruiting staff, developing menus, trying out new dishes, and promoting advertisements, she has been busy for more than a month, and she doesn't even care about meals.It wasn't until Wei Jie sent the "List of 2013 MBA Tutors" to her mailbox that Ning Lixia didn't think about choosing a tutor.
She roughly browsed the list, and quickly selected Jiang Shaozheng.On the one hand, Professor Jiang's direction is the crisis management, operation management and corporate culture that she is interested in, on the other hand, she also wants to be lazy.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Shaozheng refused to choose her. When she saw the email from the school, the school had already assigned her to another associate professor. According to Wei Jie, this female teacher has been in menopause for many years. Famous for being serious and strict throughout the school, Ning Lixia had no reason to get mad at Jiang Shaozheng, but could only secretly scold him for not remembering the past.
Just as she was suffering, Wei Jie called again, urging her to try on the bridesmaid dress, Ning Lixia couldn't remember who she had promised to be the bridesmaid, she really felt baffled.
"Are you ashamed not to be a bridesmaid when I get married! Do you feel sorry for not being my bridesmaid! I don't mind finding a bridesmaid who is taller and prettier than me. Can you say no?"
"..." Ning Lixia really couldn't compete with her, so he could only compromise.
Wei Jie's fiancé is Ning Yu's right-hand man for many years. Ning Yu originally promised to be their witness, but he couldn't get away temporarily, so he had to give up.Hearing Wei Jie clamoring to find a more handsome replacement, Ning Lixia thought she was joking, but unexpectedly met Jiang Shaozheng outside the auditorium.
Jiang Shaozheng was taken aback for a moment, and then praised: "You look good in blue, I really think about Wei Jie as your bridesmaid."
Ning Lixia lifted up the long skirt and stretched out his feet to show him: "What, she and the other three bridesmaids wear [-]cm high heels, but I'm not even allowed to wear [-]cm shoes! I found a pair of flat sandals for me temporarily, It doesn't fit at all, and I'm not afraid of falling when I hand over a glass of wine later and embarrassing her!"
The indignation on her face made Jiang Shaozheng laugh out loud, and immediately comforted him: "You are much taller than them, and it is harmonious to stand at the same height when taking pictures."
"If she would give me the shoes back, I would definitely squat down a little bit for the photo."
"It's been a long time since I saw you. Why have you lost so much weight?"
"Have you lost weight? I've been so busy recently that I don't even have time to look in the mirror." She touched her face happily.
"...too thin and not looking good, you must have a good rest and eat well."
Hearing Jiang Shaozheng admonishing her solemnly, a sense of familiarity came over her face.However, there are too many things to be busy at the wedding, and the two have no time to chat.
It wasn't until the glass of wine was delivered that Ning Lixia was really free. She held a champagne glass and leaned halfway on the door frame to watch Jiang Shaozheng witness the marriage.
Having known each other for more than [-] years, this was the first time she saw him wearing a complete suit. She had predicted many years ago that he would look good in a suit, and it really was pleasing to the eye.
Ning Lixia thought with three points of pride, although she was a little silly, her vision in girlhood was not too bad.
After the wedding banquet in the hotel, most of the guests dispersed, leaving only a few close relatives and close friends waiting to attend the family banquet in the evening.
The village where the groom's parents live is a hundred kilometers away. Out of courtesy, Wei Jie invited Jiang Shaozheng to go with him.
Jiang Shaozheng wanted to refuse at first, but when he caught a glimpse of Ning Lixia who was not far away, he got into the car sent by his husband, and said "yes" involuntarily.After a while, he hesitated again, just as he was looking for an excuse to go back, Wei Jie had already arranged for several relatives and friends to take his ride.
"Mr. Jiang, just follow the one in front."
Jiang Shaozheng had no choice but to follow.
After getting off the provincial road and driving for another 10 minutes, I finally saw the village.As soon as they entered the village, relatives and friends scattered around. The other bridesmaids, the groom's younger sister, or Wei Jie's younger sister each had their own affairs to be busy. The rest of Ning Lixia didn't know each other. Looking around, only Jiang Shaozheng an acquaintance.
She walked towards him naturally.
"Why are you here too?"
Jiang Shaozheng pointed to his car: "Send someone for Wei Jie."
"I knew it! She is the most convincing."
"What about you?"
"I heard that they are going to pay homage, let's join in the fun together."
She has been living in the north and has never seen the villages in the south of the Yangtze River. She feels that everything is very fresh, so she drags Jiang Shaozheng around.
The groom's house has a big yard, where rows of various vegetables are planted, and the small buildings are built around the yard in the shape of a Chinese character. Ning Lixia couldn't help sighing when he saw it: "Was this considered a landlord in the past?"
"Wow! Such a big fish! A whole pig! So many chickens and ducks! Can I finish eating today?" When she walked to the temporary kitchen in the corner of the yard, she was amazed by the large amount of ingredients piled up in it .
Jiang Shaozheng shook his head and smiled, but did not answer.
Seeing the smile on Jiang Shaozheng's face when he turned his head, Ning Lixia pouted immediately: "I've never seen these before, so that's why I find them strange."
"It's the first time I've seen it too, but I don't think it's worth making a fuss about."
"cut!"
The wedding was very lively, and there was joy everywhere. Four large stoves built with bricks were set up in the yard of the groom's house. There were big iron pots on them, and different foods were steaming.
As night fell, the water table finally started. Wei Jie sneaked over and pointed out two seats for them. Facing the rare and authentic farm food, Ning Lixia wanted to give up lunch, but because she was not used to eating with so many strangers Hesitating and hesitating for a table meal, it happened that a grandmother wearing a red scarf gave them two bowls of glutinous rice balls, and Ning Lixia called Jiang Shaozheng to leave the table.
"There are too many people here, the smell of smoke is heavy, shall we go elsewhere?"
Jiang Shaozheng readily agreed.
In fact, there is only one glutinous rice ball in the bowl, because it is too big, it fills up the whole bowl.
After biting down, she realized that the glutinous rice balls were very hot. She stuck out her tongue and quickly slapped them with her hands, tasted the meat stuffing inside, and was about to exclaim, when she remembered Jiang Shaozheng's previous ridicule, she had to swallow it. Down.
"There is meat in the glutinous rice balls! It's still so big!" Jiang Shaozheng imitated her tone and said on her behalf.
"boring!"
As soon as the auspicious time arrived, Wei Jie, who had changed into a red cheongsam, walked into the main room with the groom to worship the ancestors. There were too many people gathered around to visit the bride. No matter how tall Ning Lixia was, it was difficult to see clearly, so he simply stepped on Side bench.
The groom's cousin set off firecrackers five meters away, and when he heard a series of loud noises, the startled Ning Lixia fell down as Jiang Shaozheng expected. Fortunately, he was well prepared and protected her in time.However, the weight of her fall was much heavier than he had imagined, and the collision made him almost fall, and the support became a hug. When he regained consciousness, she had already fallen into his arms.
Everything was still, and Jiang Shaozheng heard his own heartbeat clearly.
However, he was not allowed to be greedy for another second, Ning Lixia broke free, bent his eyes and smiled back at him: "Thank you!"
She climbed up the stool again, stretched her neck and continued to wait and see.
Her back is ridiculously silly, but he can no longer ignore his heart, and can no longer tell himself that this is actually not important at all.
There is a lot of food on the table in the main room. Once the ancestor worship is over, the children will go up and grab it.Ning Lixia got out quickly, picked up the Mai Lisu and soft drinks he had snatched and shook them triumphantly: "Let's go outside! There are so many people, it will take a long time to toast."
The air in the country is very fresh, there are stars and insects and frogs.
Ning Lixia changed out of the bridesmaid's dress, wore the short-sleeved shorts Wei Jie gave her, and sat on the stone steps by the river with a plain face, drinking soda and complaining.
"Wei Jie is really unreliable. She actually left my bag in the hotel. After washing my face, I couldn't even find skin cream, and I didn't even have any clothes!"
"You look better without makeup."
She didn't care about his compliments, and continued to sigh: "Just now Wei Jie's expression is so happy! She also said that she doesn't want to marry at all, and she is duplicity."
"how about you."
"what?"
"Do you want to get married?"
"I don't even have a boyfriend, who am I going to marry?"
"There's always someone you like, right?"
"No, compared to men, I prefer gems, blazing red, deep green, silent blue, all kinds of colors. Those stones are beautiful and strong, and they will last longer than life and love."
"Why are you so pessimistic? Love can last forever."
"Meet someone who is suitable for marriage, date for a few years, meet each other's parents, make a vow, exchange rings, have one or two children, watch them grow up, and live a normal life, even if they quarrel Sometimes I can’t wait to bite each other, and I never think of divorce. This is the most successful and longest marriage in everyone’s eyes, right? But I don’t think that’s called love. Love is just a short-term freshness. .”
"When I was a teenager, I felt that first love was more important than anything else. When we separated, I felt that the whole world had lost its color. But when I look back ten or five years later, I can't understand why I was so naive at the beginning. "
She suddenly remembered a joke about Wei Jie, looked around, and whispered to Jiang Shaozheng, "Once when I was chatting with Wei Jie, she was intoxicated when we talked about my first love, and described him very beautifully. A young and well-known senior in the school, as cool as Rukawa Kaede, who rarely talks, many people have a crush on him, but he only likes her, skipping class together to go to the movies, fighting for her... It didn't take long for us to go shopping together, etc. At the red light, she suddenly said stupidly that she saw her first love. I looked in the direction she pointed. How could there be Rukawa Kaede? There was only one middle-aged gangster with a particularly vicissitudes of life, half yellow and half red hair. I don’t know how long. Unwashed, riding an old motorcycle, and the woman behind her... Tsk tsk, not only is it painted with scary giant panda eyes, but it also snows when the wind blows."
"Huh?" He didn't understand the meaning of her last sentence.
"It's just that the face is covered with very thick powder, which is terribly white, and it falls off when you move."
Jiang Shaozheng laughed.
"Wei Jie felt very, very disillusioned, remembering that she ran away from home arguing with her parents because of him, and sent her mother to the hospital in anger. She almost poked her eyes with her hands. Since then, she has never allowed others to mention 'first love' in front of her." ', saying that her Rukawa Kaede is the biggest black history in life."
"What about you, what kind of person is your first love?"
Ning Lixia glanced at Jiang Shaozheng, smiled and said, "It's not that bad, but it's much better than middle-aged gangsters! There are still a lot of ignorant girls who are secretly in love with him! Can my vision be the same as Wei Jie's?"
"You liked him very much then?"
"Well, I like it very much. In fact, it's not all about him, but a fantasy person. When I was [-] or [-] years old, my favorite comic was Sailor Moon. I think he is very similar to Mamoru Mamoru in the comic. Very similar. A few years older than me, good-looking, well-educated, and knows a lot...Anyway, he was terrible everywhere. At that time, I followed his ass every day and never felt ashamed. He Smile at me once in a while, look at me more, and I will be happy for several days! I thought that no matter what difficulties I encountered, he would jump out to help me and save me at the first time, like a field guard protecting a little rabbit That way... I realized later that I was just wishful thinking and being stupid, and people didn't want to talk to me at all."
Jiang Shaozheng had mixed feelings in his heart, and he asked after a while, "Who is Dichangwei? The person you are talking about is Tang Ruize, right?"
Hearing this sentence, a piece of Malisol rolled directly into Ning Lixia's throat. She coughed and vomited disregarding her image, and immediately denied after recovering: "How could it be him! He already has a son!"
This action made Jiang Shaozheng more sure of his thoughts, and muttered to himself: "That comic is called Sailor Moon? Can I still buy it now?"
"Why did you buy it?"
"Look how much you look like Tang Ruize."
"..."
There were too many things to do at the wedding, Ning Lixia didn't have time to drink water or go to the bathroom all day long, so after drinking a bottle of soda, he inevitably had to find the bathroom.
There was only one bathroom in the groom's house, and there was a long queue of people waiting. There was a public bathroom in the village, but there was neither toilet nor light.
"What's wrong with you, what are you looking for?" Jiang Shaozheng asked.
Ning Lixia didn't answer, and smiled awkwardly.
After thinking for two seconds, Jiang Shaozheng understood the reason, and took her to find his car: "I remember that after getting on the expressway, there is a service area within two or three minutes of driving."
"Don't bother."
"I'm still hungry, I just went to buy something to eat."
It took more than an hour to go back and forth, and then back to the groom's house, the wedding banquet was over.When told that the bride and groom had rushed back to their new house in the city overnight, Ning Lixia was so angry that she should not have been tricked by Wei Jie.
"She has my phone too!"
Jiang Shaozheng was very calm: "It's okay, I also have her number."
Received Jiang Shaozheng's call, Wei Jie was very surprised: "Didn't Lixia go with my cousin? When my cousin left, I thought she was in the car! Teacher Jiang, don't you want to go back, take Lixia with you It's too hard for her to go to the next city by herself and take a plane."
"..."
Ning Lixia, who didn't have his wallet or mobile phone with him, had only two options left, to find Wei Jie at a new house [-] kilometers away, or go back to his home [-] kilometers away in Jiang Shaozheng's car.Although she was so tired that she just wanted to fall asleep, she didn't want to destroy other people's bridal chamber candles in the middle of the night, so she got into Jiang Shaozheng's car with a straight face.
At first Ning Lixia still had the energy to complain, but she quickly fell asleep as soon as the bumpy feeling disappeared when she got on the high speed.
This journey took fifteen or sixteen hours in a row. It was a long night, so silent. Looking at Ning Lixia's peaceful sleeping face, Jiang Shaozheng was secretly glad that he didn't refuse Wei Jie's invitation.
When Ning Lixia woke up, it was just past four o'clock, and a white light appeared in the half-dark sky.Jiang Shaozheng parked the car in the service area, but he was not in the car.
Ning Lixia straightened her messy short hair with the rearview mirror, and was about to get out of the car when she saw Jiang Shaozheng coming out of the 24-hour convenience store.
He handed over a cup of hot coffee: "It's not very delicious, but it can barely refresh you. I asked, go down the front exit, and there is a decent hotel in 15 minutes. If you are not in a hurry to leave, we have eaten Take a break for breakfast before heading out.”
"It's better to find another department store to buy some clothes!" Ning Lixia had already made up his mind, afraid that Jiang Shaozheng would find it troublesome, so he dared not mention it.
Jiang Shaozheng smiled: "I'm not in a hurry, it doesn't matter if you want to go to the attractions."
"I just want to buy a change of clothes, take a shower and sleep."
Jiang Shaozheng readily agreed.
Ning Lixia finally regained his energy, insisted on sitting in the driver's seat, and let Jiang Shaozheng rest.
After a delay of half a day, they resumed their journey after noon.
During lunch, Ning Lixia heard Jiang Shaozheng calling the company to ask for leave, secretly lamenting that a person's personality will probably change once he turns thirty. The bathroom, let alone wasting time in the hotel.
They stopped for a rest in the middle, and at a quarter past ten in the evening, they finally drove past the last toll booth, but before returning to the city, the engine fault light came on.
Jiang Shaozheng got out of the car and checked it. He felt that the problem was not serious, so he continued to drive. Unexpectedly, after driving for 10 minutes, the cylinder exploded.
Jiang Shaozheng's cell phone was dead, and Ning Lixia's was not with him.In the middle of the night, there is no place in front of the village and no store behind, let alone calling for help, even if you contact the 4S store for a tow truck, you can’t find a phone number.
"My grandpa's old house is not far from here. It can be reached in half an hour. Leave the car here and let's go back first."
Ning Lixia had no choice but to agree.
In July, the temperature is getting higher day by day, even at night it doesn't feel cool.However, the sweltering heat and tiredness were not the worst. The frightening thing was that a bolt of lightning flashed inexplicably in the sky.
Then there was a strong wind, flying sand and gravel, Jiang Shaozheng dragged and dragged, and finally rang the doorbell of Jiang's villa before the first hailstone fell.
Jiang Shaozheng's parents are busy, and they have been staying at his grandfather's house since they were students, so Yan Guyu is a frequent visitor here.During the winter and summer vacations, the grandchildren come back to live for a while, and the Jiang family villa is always very lively.It was not until the grandparents passed away one after another a few years ago that the place became vacant, leaving only a gardener and a cleaner to take care of it.
When I opened the door, I saw Ning Lixia standing outside the door. The gardener stayed for a long time, and then kept babbling over and over again: "The morning you came, I ignored you because I was busy. I'm really sorry... ..."
Jiang Shaozheng turned around and closed the door, and interrupted him with a touch of emotion: "She is Yan Guyu's younger sister. Is there anything else to eat at home?"
The uncle just woke up, and while secretly looking at Ning Lixia, he said: "Yes, I will wake up your Auntie Zheng to do it for you."
"Don't bother her, just tell me where the things are."
If Ning Lixia in the morning had expected that the car would break down halfway, he would never throw away the previous flat heels immediately after buying the pair of stiletto heels on his feet.
Walking through the small garden in the wind and rain with hail, watching Jiang Shaozheng open the door and turn on the light in the living room, Ning Lixia laughed out of embarrassment: "Everything is rushed together, fortunately I heard you didn't stay In the car."
"You were shocked by the trouble, I'll take you to the guest room, take a shower before eating."
"It's just a small hailstorm, it's not a tornado, so there's nothing to be surprised about." Ning Lixia waved his hand, "You don't need to bring it. You must be more tired than me after driving all day."
Seeing her familiarly touch the guest room on the left side of the first floor, Jiang Shaozheng felt strange: "How do you know the guest room is over there?"
Ning Lixia was stunned for a moment before he said: "My sister and I came to your house together, maybe when I was 12 years old, we took a nap in this room."
Jiang Shaozheng said "Oh": "Your memory is really good for what happened 14 years ago."
Ning Lixia secretly scolded himself for being too careless, carefully observed Jiang Shaozheng's expression, seeing that he didn't seem to care, he let go of his heart.
Jiang Shaozheng put the hot water on for her, found another set of clothes for his cousin, and then left.
A moment later, while she was brushing her hair, he knocked on the door again.
"There are a lot of vegetables, but the only meat is pork. Do you want to eat it?"
"Eat." Ning Lixia opened the door, "I'll make it."
"You rest, I'll go."
"can you cook?"
"Of course, I live alone. Although it's not delicious, it's okay to cook well."
After hearing the words, Ning Lixia dried her hair before going to help in the kitchen.
The rice was already stuffy, and Ning Lixia felt even more hungry when he smelled the aroma.
Although he didn't turn his head back, Jiang Shaozheng heard her swallowing, and said with a smile, "Two to ten minutes will be fine."
The plaid pajamas on him are very ordinary, but they are very good-looking, Ning Lixia thought, it is good to be tall, even wearing pajamas is eye-catching.
The sweet and sour pork ribs came out of the pan quickly. When he took the plate, he turned around and saw Ning Lixia staring at him stupidly. Jiang Shaozheng asked, "What's wrong?"
Ning Lixia, who was caught, blushed secretly: "I miss the curry beef brisket rice and sweet and sour octopus in a small restaurant. The dry-stir-fried green beans and shredded cabbage in that restaurant are also very special. I wanted to invite you to go there Supper, who knows it was disturbed by the car and the hail."
"Then go next time, you already owe me two meals. No sweet and sour hairtail, try sweet and sour pork ribs." He handed her a pair of chopsticks.
Ning Lixia took a bite and chewed a few times: "Mmm... It's a little bit better than just cooked, I'll do the rest of the two dishes and one soup."
Although Jiang Shaozheng was willing to let Xian, he was very upset about his sweet and sour pork ribs: "Isn't it delicious? Once Tang Ruize was kicked out by his wife and lived in my house. I made this for him. He ate a big plate in one go. His His mouth has always been very tricky."
"Cut, that's because people who are broken in love can't taste it."
Ning Lixia moved quickly, and quickly made the soup cabbage and salt and pepper king oyster mushrooms.The dining table in the living room was too big for two people to sit on, so Jiang Shaozheng invited her to his room.
Jiang Shaozheng's suite is on the third floor. She has been here too many times and is familiar with the location of every book and every pot of flowers and plants.
He roughly summarized the objects on the coffee table, put the dishes on it, and asked Ning Lixia to sit on the sofa.
The windows were squeaked by the wind, and the raindrops slammed on the glass, but the house was peaceful, with warm lights, thick curtains and the smell of rice.
Ning Lixia suddenly remembered that everything in front of her seemed to be all her fantasies about the future many, many years ago.
During the meal, the two chatted about a book, and when they talked about getting excited, Jiang Shaozheng pushed away the bowl and got up to look for her in the bookcase. He accidentally knocked down a notebook with cherry blossom powder. Ning Lixia felt familiar, so he picked it up and read it.
It was indeed hers.
She kept this diary for a year, and although she didn't write it every day, most of it was related to him.
Postcards attached to the diary, stars and hearts drawn with colored pencils, carefully selected maple leaves... Even if she falls in love with another person in the future, it is impossible for her to do such a stupid thing again.The childish and ridiculous but nostalgic girlish feelings will never be found after the age of 20.
This gift consumed her entire 17 years, and every word was practiced and rehearsed before it was written.However, Jiang Shaozheng only glanced lightly and asked, "What is this?"
It took a few seconds for Ning Lixia to laugh: "A love letter written by an idiot, can you let me take it back?"
"It belongs to your sister? You can take it."
"Are you willing?"
"There's nothing to be reluctant about. There are a lot of her things in the drawer on the left side of the desk. You can choose a few to keep as souvenirs."
She quickly sorted out her emotions, walked to the desk and opened the drawer full of gifts from her, but unfortunately there was no antique photo box from her father.
"Is it all here?"
"Ah."
"My sister gave this to you too?" Ning Lixia picked out a brocade box containing a pocket watch.
"right."
She never gave anyone a pocket watch.
Ning Lixia suddenly felt a little sad, because of himself back then.Even if she has long regarded Jiang Shaozheng as an old playmate like Cheng Qingqing, even if she has long understood that their relationship has never been equal, she cannot be completely relieved.
"I just want this." She raised the notepad in her hand, "It's getting late, go to rest."
The quilt was a bit damp, probably due to the long-term residence. Ning Lixia not only tossed and turned for a long time without falling asleep, but also had a faint pain in his abdomen.
On such a night full of thunder and lightning, staying alone will always give birth to a little bit of dread.She simply got up and half leaned on the bed, turned on the desk lamp and flipped through her diary page by page.The age is too long, and the memory is blurred. It is as fresh and interesting as reading a story written by a stranger.
The fly in the ointment was that the abdominal pain became more and more obvious. At first, she didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was due to running around for days and eating bad food.It wasn't until the nausea and dizziness also appeared, and after counting the days, she realized that it was physical pain.
She didn't have dysmenorrhea, such a situation was rare, and she felt helpless.
After enduring it for a while, he realized that it would not relieve himself, and after hesitating for a moment, Ning Lixia still didn't want to disturb Jiang Shaozheng.She moved to the kitchen step by step according to her belly, and took out the kettle to boil water.
Unexpectedly, when there was a slight disturbance when opening the refrigerator to get ginger, Jiang Shaozheng came out from the next room.
"You are hungry?"
"No." After taking a deep breath, Ning Lixia said, "Aren't you on the third floor?"
"Sleeping on the first floor is the same." After a pause, he continued, "The house is too big and too few people, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep alone."
Yan Guyu didn't dare to sleep by herself.On the few trips, every night, when the people traveling together fell asleep, she had to pester him to accompany her. At that time, she felt that sitting and chatting until dawn was simply too tortured, but now she was secretly looking forward to Ning Lixia ringing her own bell. Door.
Ning Lixia also remembered the old incident of the trip, in fact, the one who dared not sleep alone was her younger sister.My father is often not at home, and my mother is only willing to sleep with my younger sister. After being taken by the nanny to her first birthday, she has been sleeping alone. How could she be afraid of the dark.
The younger sister has a sweet mouth, can act like a baby, and loves to be clingy, so she gets more attention and pity from her mother. She was so stupid when she was a child, she thought that she could win Jiang Shaozheng's favor by imitating her younger sister.
Seeing that something was wrong with her, Jiang Shaozheng asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"I have a stomachache, but it's not serious. Drinking some hot water should help."
"I've eaten too much in the past two days. Wait here, and I'll get you the medicine."
Ning Lixia stopped him: "Don't bother, it doesn't matter what you eat."
He thought for a while and then asked, "Physical period?"
Ning Lixia with a pale face smiled awkwardly: "You really know a lot."
"Basic common sense." Seeing the cold sweat on her forehead, Jiang Shaozheng frowned, "Do you want to go to the hospital?"
"How to get there?" It was still windy and rainy outside, and the only car was still a few kilometers away.
"You can call an ambulance."
"Who would call an ambulance because of this. Go to sleep, I'll make a cup of ginger soup, drink it and sleep."
"Go to bed first, I'll cook."
The pain and nausea suddenly hit like a torrent, and even breathing was difficult. She had no strength to refuse, she nodded slightly, and was about to move back to the bedroom while supporting the wall, but was hugged by Jiang Shaozheng.
He walked quickly, took her back to the bedroom in just a few seconds, and helped her lie down.
The feeling of discomfort was too strong, leaving no room for Ning Lixia to be surprised.
After waiting for less than 5 minutes, Jiang Shaozheng came in and stuffed her with a warm water bag wrapped in a shirt.
"Ginger soup will be ready soon."
The ginger soup is very thick and hot, but unfortunately there is no brown sugar.When the abdominal pain subsided a little, she sat up halfway, held the cup and sipped and drank. During this period, Jiang Shaozheng came over again and brought a bowl of strange-looking red wine boiled apples.
"The prescription I read online, I don't know if it is useful."
Ning Lixia thanked him, but didn't eat.Jiang Shaozheng's apples were so beautifully cut, she sighed softly in her heart.
She forgot when she fell asleep. She only remembered the sound of footsteps a few times in a daze. When she woke up, she saw the ash shirt in her hand. She was swollen for a long time before remembering that he had wrapped it in a warm water bottle. No wonder she was flustered. She pressed directly on her stomach but was not burned.
There was a tampon next to the pillow, the experience of the past two days was really embarrassing, after a while of depression, Ning Lixia quickly thought about it, anyway, she had never had an image in front of Jiang Shaozheng.
There was a long-lost breath on his shirt, which was so familiar that she was terrified.I had to scold myself and say that the same mistake must never be made again.
Without breakfast, Ning Lixia excused something and left.Before going out, she deliberately stopped in front of the fence for a while. The Centifolia Rose outside the Jiang family villa used to be her favorite. Every warm mid-spring, large areas of pink, purple and tender green would cover the ivory white wooden fence, covering the This apricot-colored small building is particularly beautiful.At that time, she always clamored for her father to plant a clump in front of her house, but it was a pity that although the flowers were easy to imitate, the charm was rare.Just like how she worked so hard to imitate her younger sister back then, she didn't get any preferential treatment.
(End of this chapter)
Moonlight Cloud Sea's business is so good, Ning Lixia has long intended to open her own branch, and Ning Yu gave her half of the shares in the old store on the condition that she invest in the new store.No matter what, it wasn't her disadvantage, Ning Lixia feared that he would go back on his word, so he immediately agreed.
One or two small restaurants are insignificant to Ning Yu, but they are all Ning Lixia's painstaking efforts. She is afraid that the verbal agreement will not be accurate, so she urges him to sign a formal contract. There was no other way, so I had to postpone my departure for a day.
Decorating new stores, recruiting staff, developing menus, trying out new dishes, and promoting advertisements, she has been busy for more than a month, and she doesn't even care about meals.It wasn't until Wei Jie sent the "List of 2013 MBA Tutors" to her mailbox that Ning Lixia didn't think about choosing a tutor.
She roughly browsed the list, and quickly selected Jiang Shaozheng.On the one hand, Professor Jiang's direction is the crisis management, operation management and corporate culture that she is interested in, on the other hand, she also wants to be lazy.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Shaozheng refused to choose her. When she saw the email from the school, the school had already assigned her to another associate professor. According to Wei Jie, this female teacher has been in menopause for many years. Famous for being serious and strict throughout the school, Ning Lixia had no reason to get mad at Jiang Shaozheng, but could only secretly scold him for not remembering the past.
Just as she was suffering, Wei Jie called again, urging her to try on the bridesmaid dress, Ning Lixia couldn't remember who she had promised to be the bridesmaid, she really felt baffled.
"Are you ashamed not to be a bridesmaid when I get married! Do you feel sorry for not being my bridesmaid! I don't mind finding a bridesmaid who is taller and prettier than me. Can you say no?"
"..." Ning Lixia really couldn't compete with her, so he could only compromise.
Wei Jie's fiancé is Ning Yu's right-hand man for many years. Ning Yu originally promised to be their witness, but he couldn't get away temporarily, so he had to give up.Hearing Wei Jie clamoring to find a more handsome replacement, Ning Lixia thought she was joking, but unexpectedly met Jiang Shaozheng outside the auditorium.
Jiang Shaozheng was taken aback for a moment, and then praised: "You look good in blue, I really think about Wei Jie as your bridesmaid."
Ning Lixia lifted up the long skirt and stretched out his feet to show him: "What, she and the other three bridesmaids wear [-]cm high heels, but I'm not even allowed to wear [-]cm shoes! I found a pair of flat sandals for me temporarily, It doesn't fit at all, and I'm not afraid of falling when I hand over a glass of wine later and embarrassing her!"
The indignation on her face made Jiang Shaozheng laugh out loud, and immediately comforted him: "You are much taller than them, and it is harmonious to stand at the same height when taking pictures."
"If she would give me the shoes back, I would definitely squat down a little bit for the photo."
"It's been a long time since I saw you. Why have you lost so much weight?"
"Have you lost weight? I've been so busy recently that I don't even have time to look in the mirror." She touched her face happily.
"...too thin and not looking good, you must have a good rest and eat well."
Hearing Jiang Shaozheng admonishing her solemnly, a sense of familiarity came over her face.However, there are too many things to be busy at the wedding, and the two have no time to chat.
It wasn't until the glass of wine was delivered that Ning Lixia was really free. She held a champagne glass and leaned halfway on the door frame to watch Jiang Shaozheng witness the marriage.
Having known each other for more than [-] years, this was the first time she saw him wearing a complete suit. She had predicted many years ago that he would look good in a suit, and it really was pleasing to the eye.
Ning Lixia thought with three points of pride, although she was a little silly, her vision in girlhood was not too bad.
After the wedding banquet in the hotel, most of the guests dispersed, leaving only a few close relatives and close friends waiting to attend the family banquet in the evening.
The village where the groom's parents live is a hundred kilometers away. Out of courtesy, Wei Jie invited Jiang Shaozheng to go with him.
Jiang Shaozheng wanted to refuse at first, but when he caught a glimpse of Ning Lixia who was not far away, he got into the car sent by his husband, and said "yes" involuntarily.After a while, he hesitated again, just as he was looking for an excuse to go back, Wei Jie had already arranged for several relatives and friends to take his ride.
"Mr. Jiang, just follow the one in front."
Jiang Shaozheng had no choice but to follow.
After getting off the provincial road and driving for another 10 minutes, I finally saw the village.As soon as they entered the village, relatives and friends scattered around. The other bridesmaids, the groom's younger sister, or Wei Jie's younger sister each had their own affairs to be busy. The rest of Ning Lixia didn't know each other. Looking around, only Jiang Shaozheng an acquaintance.
She walked towards him naturally.
"Why are you here too?"
Jiang Shaozheng pointed to his car: "Send someone for Wei Jie."
"I knew it! She is the most convincing."
"What about you?"
"I heard that they are going to pay homage, let's join in the fun together."
She has been living in the north and has never seen the villages in the south of the Yangtze River. She feels that everything is very fresh, so she drags Jiang Shaozheng around.
The groom's house has a big yard, where rows of various vegetables are planted, and the small buildings are built around the yard in the shape of a Chinese character. Ning Lixia couldn't help sighing when he saw it: "Was this considered a landlord in the past?"
"Wow! Such a big fish! A whole pig! So many chickens and ducks! Can I finish eating today?" When she walked to the temporary kitchen in the corner of the yard, she was amazed by the large amount of ingredients piled up in it .
Jiang Shaozheng shook his head and smiled, but did not answer.
Seeing the smile on Jiang Shaozheng's face when he turned his head, Ning Lixia pouted immediately: "I've never seen these before, so that's why I find them strange."
"It's the first time I've seen it too, but I don't think it's worth making a fuss about."
"cut!"
The wedding was very lively, and there was joy everywhere. Four large stoves built with bricks were set up in the yard of the groom's house. There were big iron pots on them, and different foods were steaming.
As night fell, the water table finally started. Wei Jie sneaked over and pointed out two seats for them. Facing the rare and authentic farm food, Ning Lixia wanted to give up lunch, but because she was not used to eating with so many strangers Hesitating and hesitating for a table meal, it happened that a grandmother wearing a red scarf gave them two bowls of glutinous rice balls, and Ning Lixia called Jiang Shaozheng to leave the table.
"There are too many people here, the smell of smoke is heavy, shall we go elsewhere?"
Jiang Shaozheng readily agreed.
In fact, there is only one glutinous rice ball in the bowl, because it is too big, it fills up the whole bowl.
After biting down, she realized that the glutinous rice balls were very hot. She stuck out her tongue and quickly slapped them with her hands, tasted the meat stuffing inside, and was about to exclaim, when she remembered Jiang Shaozheng's previous ridicule, she had to swallow it. Down.
"There is meat in the glutinous rice balls! It's still so big!" Jiang Shaozheng imitated her tone and said on her behalf.
"boring!"
As soon as the auspicious time arrived, Wei Jie, who had changed into a red cheongsam, walked into the main room with the groom to worship the ancestors. There were too many people gathered around to visit the bride. No matter how tall Ning Lixia was, it was difficult to see clearly, so he simply stepped on Side bench.
The groom's cousin set off firecrackers five meters away, and when he heard a series of loud noises, the startled Ning Lixia fell down as Jiang Shaozheng expected. Fortunately, he was well prepared and protected her in time.However, the weight of her fall was much heavier than he had imagined, and the collision made him almost fall, and the support became a hug. When he regained consciousness, she had already fallen into his arms.
Everything was still, and Jiang Shaozheng heard his own heartbeat clearly.
However, he was not allowed to be greedy for another second, Ning Lixia broke free, bent his eyes and smiled back at him: "Thank you!"
She climbed up the stool again, stretched her neck and continued to wait and see.
Her back is ridiculously silly, but he can no longer ignore his heart, and can no longer tell himself that this is actually not important at all.
There is a lot of food on the table in the main room. Once the ancestor worship is over, the children will go up and grab it.Ning Lixia got out quickly, picked up the Mai Lisu and soft drinks he had snatched and shook them triumphantly: "Let's go outside! There are so many people, it will take a long time to toast."
The air in the country is very fresh, there are stars and insects and frogs.
Ning Lixia changed out of the bridesmaid's dress, wore the short-sleeved shorts Wei Jie gave her, and sat on the stone steps by the river with a plain face, drinking soda and complaining.
"Wei Jie is really unreliable. She actually left my bag in the hotel. After washing my face, I couldn't even find skin cream, and I didn't even have any clothes!"
"You look better without makeup."
She didn't care about his compliments, and continued to sigh: "Just now Wei Jie's expression is so happy! She also said that she doesn't want to marry at all, and she is duplicity."
"how about you."
"what?"
"Do you want to get married?"
"I don't even have a boyfriend, who am I going to marry?"
"There's always someone you like, right?"
"No, compared to men, I prefer gems, blazing red, deep green, silent blue, all kinds of colors. Those stones are beautiful and strong, and they will last longer than life and love."
"Why are you so pessimistic? Love can last forever."
"Meet someone who is suitable for marriage, date for a few years, meet each other's parents, make a vow, exchange rings, have one or two children, watch them grow up, and live a normal life, even if they quarrel Sometimes I can’t wait to bite each other, and I never think of divorce. This is the most successful and longest marriage in everyone’s eyes, right? But I don’t think that’s called love. Love is just a short-term freshness. .”
"When I was a teenager, I felt that first love was more important than anything else. When we separated, I felt that the whole world had lost its color. But when I look back ten or five years later, I can't understand why I was so naive at the beginning. "
She suddenly remembered a joke about Wei Jie, looked around, and whispered to Jiang Shaozheng, "Once when I was chatting with Wei Jie, she was intoxicated when we talked about my first love, and described him very beautifully. A young and well-known senior in the school, as cool as Rukawa Kaede, who rarely talks, many people have a crush on him, but he only likes her, skipping class together to go to the movies, fighting for her... It didn't take long for us to go shopping together, etc. At the red light, she suddenly said stupidly that she saw her first love. I looked in the direction she pointed. How could there be Rukawa Kaede? There was only one middle-aged gangster with a particularly vicissitudes of life, half yellow and half red hair. I don’t know how long. Unwashed, riding an old motorcycle, and the woman behind her... Tsk tsk, not only is it painted with scary giant panda eyes, but it also snows when the wind blows."
"Huh?" He didn't understand the meaning of her last sentence.
"It's just that the face is covered with very thick powder, which is terribly white, and it falls off when you move."
Jiang Shaozheng laughed.
"Wei Jie felt very, very disillusioned, remembering that she ran away from home arguing with her parents because of him, and sent her mother to the hospital in anger. She almost poked her eyes with her hands. Since then, she has never allowed others to mention 'first love' in front of her." ', saying that her Rukawa Kaede is the biggest black history in life."
"What about you, what kind of person is your first love?"
Ning Lixia glanced at Jiang Shaozheng, smiled and said, "It's not that bad, but it's much better than middle-aged gangsters! There are still a lot of ignorant girls who are secretly in love with him! Can my vision be the same as Wei Jie's?"
"You liked him very much then?"
"Well, I like it very much. In fact, it's not all about him, but a fantasy person. When I was [-] or [-] years old, my favorite comic was Sailor Moon. I think he is very similar to Mamoru Mamoru in the comic. Very similar. A few years older than me, good-looking, well-educated, and knows a lot...Anyway, he was terrible everywhere. At that time, I followed his ass every day and never felt ashamed. He Smile at me once in a while, look at me more, and I will be happy for several days! I thought that no matter what difficulties I encountered, he would jump out to help me and save me at the first time, like a field guard protecting a little rabbit That way... I realized later that I was just wishful thinking and being stupid, and people didn't want to talk to me at all."
Jiang Shaozheng had mixed feelings in his heart, and he asked after a while, "Who is Dichangwei? The person you are talking about is Tang Ruize, right?"
Hearing this sentence, a piece of Malisol rolled directly into Ning Lixia's throat. She coughed and vomited disregarding her image, and immediately denied after recovering: "How could it be him! He already has a son!"
This action made Jiang Shaozheng more sure of his thoughts, and muttered to himself: "That comic is called Sailor Moon? Can I still buy it now?"
"Why did you buy it?"
"Look how much you look like Tang Ruize."
"..."
There were too many things to do at the wedding, Ning Lixia didn't have time to drink water or go to the bathroom all day long, so after drinking a bottle of soda, he inevitably had to find the bathroom.
There was only one bathroom in the groom's house, and there was a long queue of people waiting. There was a public bathroom in the village, but there was neither toilet nor light.
"What's wrong with you, what are you looking for?" Jiang Shaozheng asked.
Ning Lixia didn't answer, and smiled awkwardly.
After thinking for two seconds, Jiang Shaozheng understood the reason, and took her to find his car: "I remember that after getting on the expressway, there is a service area within two or three minutes of driving."
"Don't bother."
"I'm still hungry, I just went to buy something to eat."
It took more than an hour to go back and forth, and then back to the groom's house, the wedding banquet was over.When told that the bride and groom had rushed back to their new house in the city overnight, Ning Lixia was so angry that she should not have been tricked by Wei Jie.
"She has my phone too!"
Jiang Shaozheng was very calm: "It's okay, I also have her number."
Received Jiang Shaozheng's call, Wei Jie was very surprised: "Didn't Lixia go with my cousin? When my cousin left, I thought she was in the car! Teacher Jiang, don't you want to go back, take Lixia with you It's too hard for her to go to the next city by herself and take a plane."
"..."
Ning Lixia, who didn't have his wallet or mobile phone with him, had only two options left, to find Wei Jie at a new house [-] kilometers away, or go back to his home [-] kilometers away in Jiang Shaozheng's car.Although she was so tired that she just wanted to fall asleep, she didn't want to destroy other people's bridal chamber candles in the middle of the night, so she got into Jiang Shaozheng's car with a straight face.
At first Ning Lixia still had the energy to complain, but she quickly fell asleep as soon as the bumpy feeling disappeared when she got on the high speed.
This journey took fifteen or sixteen hours in a row. It was a long night, so silent. Looking at Ning Lixia's peaceful sleeping face, Jiang Shaozheng was secretly glad that he didn't refuse Wei Jie's invitation.
When Ning Lixia woke up, it was just past four o'clock, and a white light appeared in the half-dark sky.Jiang Shaozheng parked the car in the service area, but he was not in the car.
Ning Lixia straightened her messy short hair with the rearview mirror, and was about to get out of the car when she saw Jiang Shaozheng coming out of the 24-hour convenience store.
He handed over a cup of hot coffee: "It's not very delicious, but it can barely refresh you. I asked, go down the front exit, and there is a decent hotel in 15 minutes. If you are not in a hurry to leave, we have eaten Take a break for breakfast before heading out.”
"It's better to find another department store to buy some clothes!" Ning Lixia had already made up his mind, afraid that Jiang Shaozheng would find it troublesome, so he dared not mention it.
Jiang Shaozheng smiled: "I'm not in a hurry, it doesn't matter if you want to go to the attractions."
"I just want to buy a change of clothes, take a shower and sleep."
Jiang Shaozheng readily agreed.
Ning Lixia finally regained his energy, insisted on sitting in the driver's seat, and let Jiang Shaozheng rest.
After a delay of half a day, they resumed their journey after noon.
During lunch, Ning Lixia heard Jiang Shaozheng calling the company to ask for leave, secretly lamenting that a person's personality will probably change once he turns thirty. The bathroom, let alone wasting time in the hotel.
They stopped for a rest in the middle, and at a quarter past ten in the evening, they finally drove past the last toll booth, but before returning to the city, the engine fault light came on.
Jiang Shaozheng got out of the car and checked it. He felt that the problem was not serious, so he continued to drive. Unexpectedly, after driving for 10 minutes, the cylinder exploded.
Jiang Shaozheng's cell phone was dead, and Ning Lixia's was not with him.In the middle of the night, there is no place in front of the village and no store behind, let alone calling for help, even if you contact the 4S store for a tow truck, you can’t find a phone number.
"My grandpa's old house is not far from here. It can be reached in half an hour. Leave the car here and let's go back first."
Ning Lixia had no choice but to agree.
In July, the temperature is getting higher day by day, even at night it doesn't feel cool.However, the sweltering heat and tiredness were not the worst. The frightening thing was that a bolt of lightning flashed inexplicably in the sky.
Then there was a strong wind, flying sand and gravel, Jiang Shaozheng dragged and dragged, and finally rang the doorbell of Jiang's villa before the first hailstone fell.
Jiang Shaozheng's parents are busy, and they have been staying at his grandfather's house since they were students, so Yan Guyu is a frequent visitor here.During the winter and summer vacations, the grandchildren come back to live for a while, and the Jiang family villa is always very lively.It was not until the grandparents passed away one after another a few years ago that the place became vacant, leaving only a gardener and a cleaner to take care of it.
When I opened the door, I saw Ning Lixia standing outside the door. The gardener stayed for a long time, and then kept babbling over and over again: "The morning you came, I ignored you because I was busy. I'm really sorry... ..."
Jiang Shaozheng turned around and closed the door, and interrupted him with a touch of emotion: "She is Yan Guyu's younger sister. Is there anything else to eat at home?"
The uncle just woke up, and while secretly looking at Ning Lixia, he said: "Yes, I will wake up your Auntie Zheng to do it for you."
"Don't bother her, just tell me where the things are."
If Ning Lixia in the morning had expected that the car would break down halfway, he would never throw away the previous flat heels immediately after buying the pair of stiletto heels on his feet.
Walking through the small garden in the wind and rain with hail, watching Jiang Shaozheng open the door and turn on the light in the living room, Ning Lixia laughed out of embarrassment: "Everything is rushed together, fortunately I heard you didn't stay In the car."
"You were shocked by the trouble, I'll take you to the guest room, take a shower before eating."
"It's just a small hailstorm, it's not a tornado, so there's nothing to be surprised about." Ning Lixia waved his hand, "You don't need to bring it. You must be more tired than me after driving all day."
Seeing her familiarly touch the guest room on the left side of the first floor, Jiang Shaozheng felt strange: "How do you know the guest room is over there?"
Ning Lixia was stunned for a moment before he said: "My sister and I came to your house together, maybe when I was 12 years old, we took a nap in this room."
Jiang Shaozheng said "Oh": "Your memory is really good for what happened 14 years ago."
Ning Lixia secretly scolded himself for being too careless, carefully observed Jiang Shaozheng's expression, seeing that he didn't seem to care, he let go of his heart.
Jiang Shaozheng put the hot water on for her, found another set of clothes for his cousin, and then left.
A moment later, while she was brushing her hair, he knocked on the door again.
"There are a lot of vegetables, but the only meat is pork. Do you want to eat it?"
"Eat." Ning Lixia opened the door, "I'll make it."
"You rest, I'll go."
"can you cook?"
"Of course, I live alone. Although it's not delicious, it's okay to cook well."
After hearing the words, Ning Lixia dried her hair before going to help in the kitchen.
The rice was already stuffy, and Ning Lixia felt even more hungry when he smelled the aroma.
Although he didn't turn his head back, Jiang Shaozheng heard her swallowing, and said with a smile, "Two to ten minutes will be fine."
The plaid pajamas on him are very ordinary, but they are very good-looking, Ning Lixia thought, it is good to be tall, even wearing pajamas is eye-catching.
The sweet and sour pork ribs came out of the pan quickly. When he took the plate, he turned around and saw Ning Lixia staring at him stupidly. Jiang Shaozheng asked, "What's wrong?"
Ning Lixia, who was caught, blushed secretly: "I miss the curry beef brisket rice and sweet and sour octopus in a small restaurant. The dry-stir-fried green beans and shredded cabbage in that restaurant are also very special. I wanted to invite you to go there Supper, who knows it was disturbed by the car and the hail."
"Then go next time, you already owe me two meals. No sweet and sour hairtail, try sweet and sour pork ribs." He handed her a pair of chopsticks.
Ning Lixia took a bite and chewed a few times: "Mmm... It's a little bit better than just cooked, I'll do the rest of the two dishes and one soup."
Although Jiang Shaozheng was willing to let Xian, he was very upset about his sweet and sour pork ribs: "Isn't it delicious? Once Tang Ruize was kicked out by his wife and lived in my house. I made this for him. He ate a big plate in one go. His His mouth has always been very tricky."
"Cut, that's because people who are broken in love can't taste it."
Ning Lixia moved quickly, and quickly made the soup cabbage and salt and pepper king oyster mushrooms.The dining table in the living room was too big for two people to sit on, so Jiang Shaozheng invited her to his room.
Jiang Shaozheng's suite is on the third floor. She has been here too many times and is familiar with the location of every book and every pot of flowers and plants.
He roughly summarized the objects on the coffee table, put the dishes on it, and asked Ning Lixia to sit on the sofa.
The windows were squeaked by the wind, and the raindrops slammed on the glass, but the house was peaceful, with warm lights, thick curtains and the smell of rice.
Ning Lixia suddenly remembered that everything in front of her seemed to be all her fantasies about the future many, many years ago.
During the meal, the two chatted about a book, and when they talked about getting excited, Jiang Shaozheng pushed away the bowl and got up to look for her in the bookcase. He accidentally knocked down a notebook with cherry blossom powder. Ning Lixia felt familiar, so he picked it up and read it.
It was indeed hers.
She kept this diary for a year, and although she didn't write it every day, most of it was related to him.
Postcards attached to the diary, stars and hearts drawn with colored pencils, carefully selected maple leaves... Even if she falls in love with another person in the future, it is impossible for her to do such a stupid thing again.The childish and ridiculous but nostalgic girlish feelings will never be found after the age of 20.
This gift consumed her entire 17 years, and every word was practiced and rehearsed before it was written.However, Jiang Shaozheng only glanced lightly and asked, "What is this?"
It took a few seconds for Ning Lixia to laugh: "A love letter written by an idiot, can you let me take it back?"
"It belongs to your sister? You can take it."
"Are you willing?"
"There's nothing to be reluctant about. There are a lot of her things in the drawer on the left side of the desk. You can choose a few to keep as souvenirs."
She quickly sorted out her emotions, walked to the desk and opened the drawer full of gifts from her, but unfortunately there was no antique photo box from her father.
"Is it all here?"
"Ah."
"My sister gave this to you too?" Ning Lixia picked out a brocade box containing a pocket watch.
"right."
She never gave anyone a pocket watch.
Ning Lixia suddenly felt a little sad, because of himself back then.Even if she has long regarded Jiang Shaozheng as an old playmate like Cheng Qingqing, even if she has long understood that their relationship has never been equal, she cannot be completely relieved.
"I just want this." She raised the notepad in her hand, "It's getting late, go to rest."
The quilt was a bit damp, probably due to the long-term residence. Ning Lixia not only tossed and turned for a long time without falling asleep, but also had a faint pain in his abdomen.
On such a night full of thunder and lightning, staying alone will always give birth to a little bit of dread.She simply got up and half leaned on the bed, turned on the desk lamp and flipped through her diary page by page.The age is too long, and the memory is blurred. It is as fresh and interesting as reading a story written by a stranger.
The fly in the ointment was that the abdominal pain became more and more obvious. At first, she didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was due to running around for days and eating bad food.It wasn't until the nausea and dizziness also appeared, and after counting the days, she realized that it was physical pain.
She didn't have dysmenorrhea, such a situation was rare, and she felt helpless.
After enduring it for a while, he realized that it would not relieve himself, and after hesitating for a moment, Ning Lixia still didn't want to disturb Jiang Shaozheng.She moved to the kitchen step by step according to her belly, and took out the kettle to boil water.
Unexpectedly, when there was a slight disturbance when opening the refrigerator to get ginger, Jiang Shaozheng came out from the next room.
"You are hungry?"
"No." After taking a deep breath, Ning Lixia said, "Aren't you on the third floor?"
"Sleeping on the first floor is the same." After a pause, he continued, "The house is too big and too few people, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep alone."
Yan Guyu didn't dare to sleep by herself.On the few trips, every night, when the people traveling together fell asleep, she had to pester him to accompany her. At that time, she felt that sitting and chatting until dawn was simply too tortured, but now she was secretly looking forward to Ning Lixia ringing her own bell. Door.
Ning Lixia also remembered the old incident of the trip, in fact, the one who dared not sleep alone was her younger sister.My father is often not at home, and my mother is only willing to sleep with my younger sister. After being taken by the nanny to her first birthday, she has been sleeping alone. How could she be afraid of the dark.
The younger sister has a sweet mouth, can act like a baby, and loves to be clingy, so she gets more attention and pity from her mother. She was so stupid when she was a child, she thought that she could win Jiang Shaozheng's favor by imitating her younger sister.
Seeing that something was wrong with her, Jiang Shaozheng asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"I have a stomachache, but it's not serious. Drinking some hot water should help."
"I've eaten too much in the past two days. Wait here, and I'll get you the medicine."
Ning Lixia stopped him: "Don't bother, it doesn't matter what you eat."
He thought for a while and then asked, "Physical period?"
Ning Lixia with a pale face smiled awkwardly: "You really know a lot."
"Basic common sense." Seeing the cold sweat on her forehead, Jiang Shaozheng frowned, "Do you want to go to the hospital?"
"How to get there?" It was still windy and rainy outside, and the only car was still a few kilometers away.
"You can call an ambulance."
"Who would call an ambulance because of this. Go to sleep, I'll make a cup of ginger soup, drink it and sleep."
"Go to bed first, I'll cook."
The pain and nausea suddenly hit like a torrent, and even breathing was difficult. She had no strength to refuse, she nodded slightly, and was about to move back to the bedroom while supporting the wall, but was hugged by Jiang Shaozheng.
He walked quickly, took her back to the bedroom in just a few seconds, and helped her lie down.
The feeling of discomfort was too strong, leaving no room for Ning Lixia to be surprised.
After waiting for less than 5 minutes, Jiang Shaozheng came in and stuffed her with a warm water bag wrapped in a shirt.
"Ginger soup will be ready soon."
The ginger soup is very thick and hot, but unfortunately there is no brown sugar.When the abdominal pain subsided a little, she sat up halfway, held the cup and sipped and drank. During this period, Jiang Shaozheng came over again and brought a bowl of strange-looking red wine boiled apples.
"The prescription I read online, I don't know if it is useful."
Ning Lixia thanked him, but didn't eat.Jiang Shaozheng's apples were so beautifully cut, she sighed softly in her heart.
She forgot when she fell asleep. She only remembered the sound of footsteps a few times in a daze. When she woke up, she saw the ash shirt in her hand. She was swollen for a long time before remembering that he had wrapped it in a warm water bottle. No wonder she was flustered. She pressed directly on her stomach but was not burned.
There was a tampon next to the pillow, the experience of the past two days was really embarrassing, after a while of depression, Ning Lixia quickly thought about it, anyway, she had never had an image in front of Jiang Shaozheng.
There was a long-lost breath on his shirt, which was so familiar that she was terrified.I had to scold myself and say that the same mistake must never be made again.
Without breakfast, Ning Lixia excused something and left.Before going out, she deliberately stopped in front of the fence for a while. The Centifolia Rose outside the Jiang family villa used to be her favorite. Every warm mid-spring, large areas of pink, purple and tender green would cover the ivory white wooden fence, covering the This apricot-colored small building is particularly beautiful.At that time, she always clamored for her father to plant a clump in front of her house, but it was a pity that although the flowers were easy to imitate, the charm was rare.Just like how she worked so hard to imitate her younger sister back then, she didn't get any preferential treatment.
