Shanghai Embroidery Lady

Chapter 89
Because Ye Zijin's condition fluctuated from up to down, Meng Haoxiang decided to let her live in his place for a long time.A phone call came from home, and Mrs. He asked him to drop by Ye Zijin's house to pick up some clothes when he returned home.Due to the rush ahead, Ye Zijin did not bring enough personal items such as clothes.

Arriving at Ye Zijin's house, Meng Haoxiang pushed open the peeling wooden door and walked into the house. The room was clean and tidy. There was a plaid curtain drawn between the two small beds, and the fragrance of daffodils on the window sill was still there, full of fragrance. room.

Meng Haoxiang opened the cabinet and took out a stack of clean clothes, suddenly something fell out of the clothes and landed lightly on the ground.

Meng Haoxiang leaned over to pick it up and saw that it was an unsealed letter.He took out the letter paper and glanced at the content on it, a kind of uncontrollable joy welled up in his heart.He carefully put away the letter, it was a life-saving straw for him.

The weather in summer is always lingering in extremes. The sun was still shining brightly just now, but when Meng Haoxiang went out, the clouds were already rolling in, thunderstorms fell as soon as they were said, and lightning and thunder alternated, as if they were about to tear the gray sky apart.Meng Haoxiang walked quickly in the rain, his hair and suit were soaked by the downpour in a short while, but luckily he reached the entrance of the alley within a few steps.Meng Haoxiang got into the car and asked the driver to take him home directly. Outside the car window, it was raining heavily. The rain blurred the outside world, and the raindrops hit the window, but the car was peaceful.Meng Haoxiang took out the letter in his arms, and reassured after checking that it wasn't wet.

When he got home, the rain hadn't stopped, Mrs. He handed him a towel to wipe his hair, but Meng Haoxiang didn't take it, but went straight to Ye Zijin who was sitting on the sofa.

Ye Zi's legs were covered with a thin coral fleece blanket, and she looked out the window expressionlessly.The dark sky was seen through the long window, and a ferocious lightning flashed from time to time, making Ye Zijin's face even paler.Xiaoyue sat beside her, holding a bowl of bird's nest pear soup to feed Ye Zijin, but Ye Zijin was indifferent, without blinking his eyes, no matter how Xiaoyue persuaded him, he would not pay attention.

Meng Haoxiang walked in front of Ye Zijin, Xiaoyue was about to get up to speak, Meng Haoxiang only made a gesture of silence, Xiaoyue put down the bowl tactfully, and went to the kitchen with Mrs. He for dinner.

Meng Haoxiang lifted the coral fleece blanket over her body, and said, "Zijin, Zizheng is not dead, he left you a letter."

Hearing Zizheng's name, Ye Zijin reacted, turned his head slightly to look at Meng Haoxiang, his eyes were empty, like a puppet.

Meng Haoxiang took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Ye Zijin, with a gentle and low voice, "Look, is this Zizheng's handwriting?"

Seeing Ye Zijin stunned, his eyes rolled immediately, but then he fell into a deep silence.

Seeing that Ye Zijin had no unusual reaction to the letter, Meng Haoxiang felt a little cold. Ye Zijin didn't have the urge to read the letter, so he had to take the letter and read it to her word by word, "Sister, when you read this letter , I have already left Shanghai. Sorry, I can't formally say goodbye to you. I know you are worried about me, but I have to leave Shanghai to accomplish more important things. I can't tell you what my career is like now, but Please believe me, I will cherish my life, this is a great and noble cause, as red and magnificent as the maple leaves on Fragrant Hills. I made this decision after a long time of consideration. Sister, forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye, you You must take good care of yourself, and I will reunite with you when I finish my mission..."

After Meng Haoxiang finished reading the letter, he looked up to see Ye Zijin's eyes filled with tears, the tears slipped down silently, and his hands were tightly clutching the thin coral fleece blanket.

Suddenly a flash of lightning flashed outside the window, followed by an explosive thunder.Ye Zijin's body suddenly fell back, and Meng Haoxiang quickly supported her slender waist and pulled her back.Ye Zijin fell softly on Meng Haoxiang's chest, closed his eyes heavily, and fainted, tears fell into Meng Haoxiang's arms.

"Zijin! Zijin..." Meng Haoxiang exclaimed, his eyes full of pity and pain.

Hearing the sound, Sister He and Xiaoyue ran out, and seeing Zi Zijin fainted, Sister He hurried to call the hospital.Before she dialed the number, she saw Meng Haoxiang rushing out with Ye Zijin in his arms.

In the early morning of the next day, after a night of rain, the leaves washed by the rain became greener and shinier, the air was mixed with the fragrance of soil, and a few small birds twittered and jumped up and down among the leaves.Water was still dripping from the iron fences on both sides of the gate, and the vines that were full of water circled the big tree a few times, and several purple morning glory raised their smiling faces.The environment of Hells Hospital is quiet, and the landscapes are carefully arranged by foreign craftsmen. After the rain, the hospital is full of wet green trees and misty.

Ye Zijin leaned on the pillow of the hospital bed, glanced out the window, and stroked the letter with her fingers.

"It's Zizheng's handwriting." She said softly, her eyes were a little moist.

Xiaoyue opened the lid of the soup pot, took a bowl of black chicken soup from it, and said, "You've got it right, we've been terrified these past few days, Boss Meng has stayed up for several nights because of you, and he's kept watch all night By your side, I am afraid that you will suddenly disappear again."

Ye Zijin took the chicken soup, holding the warm bowl in his palm, and a warm current flowed from his heart.Before that thunderstorm, she vaguely felt a voice telling her that Zizheng was not dead, but now she realized that it was Meng Haoxiang's letter to her from Zizheng.

Holding the letter, Ye Zijin seemed to hold a hope.As if coming back from the dead, she only felt weak and her head ached from time to time.

"Xiaoyue, thank you for your hard work..." Ye Zijin said after taking a sip of chicken soup.

Xiaoyue smiled and said, "I don't think it's hard work, you have to thank Boss Meng well."

Ye Zijin said silently: "Of course I also want to thank him well..."

She suddenly remembered about the shop again, and hurriedly asked Xiaoyue, "How is the shop these few days? It's all because of me, and I've hurt you..."

Xiaoyue shook her head and said: "Where is it, Xiao Wu is watching over the shop, and I have invited a few capable tailors to help. The business has no big impact, but many regular customers who came to you heard that you are not good. I did, so I didn’t order another cheongsam, saying that I would inform them after you got well.”

Ye Zijin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about the muddleheaded past few days, she suddenly felt a little ashamed.If Zizheng sees her so vulnerable, will he feel that she is not the strong Ye Zijin she used to be.In the past, she could endure no matter how much suffering she endured. Even when Aunt Zhou died of illness, she took care of the funeral and took care of her two younger brothers.But when she only had Zizheng, the only family member left in this world, she became more and more afraid. Her biggest weakness was her relatives.

Now she is very convinced that Zizheng is not dead, he just went to another place, Ye Zijin can probably guess what Zizheng called a great and noble cause.Judging from Zizheng's situation all the time, Ye Zijin is quite sure that he is really the communist that Xiaoxia said.Thinking of this, she couldn't help worrying about her younger brother. It was too late to stop him now, no matter what his younger brother's status was, as long as he was still alive.

At this time, the door of the ward opened, and Meng Haoxiang walked in. Seeing that Ye Zijin's eyes had returned to their original expression, he felt a little comforted.

Ye Zijin didn't dare to look up at him at first, thinking of Meng Haoxiang's meticulous care of her these days, she felt very grateful and a little ashamed.Although her mind was not very clear during this time, she vaguely felt that someone was calling her name in her sleep, and a voice kept talking to him. She could feel the warmth of her palm, and this warmth spread to her heart. It made her feel inexplicably at ease.

"Wake up, do you still feel dizzy?" Meng Haoxiang smiled lightly, sat on the sofa and asked.

Ye Zijin was taken aback for a moment, and his tone was a little more polite, "Thank you, Boss Meng, for taking care of me these few days. I think I'm ready and I can move back to my own house..."

Meng Haoxiang's chest was suffocated, and he felt that there was another distance between the sober Ye Zijin and him.It seemed that she was really sober. She had always been estranged and indifferent to him.

Seeing that the two of them were not talking, Xiaoyue also sensed that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so she quickly changed the topic and said, "Zijin, you should take a good rest for a while, don't rush to the shop, there are me and Xiaowu and those few Master tailor, you don't need to start work."

Ye Zijin nodded, put down the soup bowl, and said, "I've had enough rest in the past few days, I still have to go to the shop to see how many orders I have left for those regular customers."

Seeing that she didn't care about her body, Meng Haoxiang's voice cooled down, and said, "You just woke up, don't be too tired. If you are worried about the business of the tailor shop, I can help you."

Ye Zijin hastily refused, "I appreciate Boss Meng's kindness, but I have already troubled you too much these days, so I'll take care of the tailor shop myself."

"I don't want to talk about this with you. If you still want to repay the favor you owe me, then stop haggling with me." Meng Haoxiang said a little displeased.

Ye Zijin was at a loss for words for a moment, she did owe this man a favor, after all, it was because of his face that Duan Lipeng sent her to the hospital, and it was because of his face that she could receive the best treatment. There is a letter from Zizheng... In short, she already owes Meng Haoxiang a lot.She suddenly didn't know how to face him. She used to worry that having too much contact with Meng Haoxiang would bring her relatives into danger, but now it seems that Meng Haoxiang saves herself every time...

Seeing that the two stopped talking, Xiaoyue smiled awkwardly and smoothed things over: "Zijin, Boss Meng is also doing it for your own good, and I also think you should take a good rest... As for moving back, let's talk about it tomorrow, your house is vacant." Some dust has accumulated during this time, I will clean it out tomorrow."

After Ye Zijin was discharged from the hospital, since most of the things were still at Meng Haoxiang's house, Mrs. He prepared a large table of delicious food. Ye Zijin couldn't directly refute Mrs. He's kindness, so she had to stay overnight temporarily.
