Chapter 11 With Friends
On the quiet mountain village road, in addition to the tricycles pulling goods, there are only unlicensed motorcycles left in the past. If they were on rainy days, these cars would be even less common.
However, on this rainy morning, two cars appeared on the muddy dirt road. Some young people who went to work and went home to prepare for the Spring Festival recognized at a glance that the black car in front of them was a Rolls-Royce, and the blue one behind them was Mercedes-Benz.
Stily, the matter of a famous car coming from this lonely mountain village quickly spread.
Ning Xue, who was looking at Chunzi peeling peanuts at the door and heard the shouting outside, turned around and stared at Huo Guanyu who served the dishes. Didn't you say you didn't tell them?
Although he was in the kitchen, Huo Guanyu also heard talking outside. He was also curious, how did Gao Minghui get here? He did it according to Ning Xue's instructions.
"I'll pick up the young masters."
Chunzi put down the sieve on his leg and ran out as soon as he smoked.
Looking at her back disappearing from sight, Ning Xue bit her lips and thought about what to do when she sees them later? She doesn't want to go back. Don't go back, I'm afraid they will come all the way and leave her alone so easily.
"Anyway, it's a pleasure to see relatives and friends here."
After comforting her, Huo Guanyu turned back to the kitchen. When guests come, he has to prepare more dishes.
Do you really want to go back with them? What should I do when I go back? Ning Xue is in trouble.
Gao Minghui and Ouyang Hongxuan appeared in front of Ning Xue under the leadership of Chunzi. Seeing her sitting quietly at the door, their eyes darkened and showed pity at the same time.
Seeing that her sister, who had not seen her for many days, looked indifferently like a pool of clear water, Ouyang Hongxuan's heart ached, stepped over a few steps and paused in front of her. Sister, is your hand all right?
"It's okay. Look!"
Unexpectedly, Ning Xue raised her right hand and stretched out in front of Ouyang Hongxuan.
He took her hand and despite her opposition, Ouyang Hongxuan lifted her sleeves and looked at the shocking scars on her arm. His eyes turned red with heartache.
I roughly counted the needle marks on the most obvious scar on my wrist, and there were 18 needles. Ouyang Hongxuan was really stunned. He couldn't imagine how she survived those painful days.
"It's not that you have been away from Miao Miao for a long time, and you want to take advantage of women, right?"
Ning Xue joked, pulled back her hand, put it into her clothes pocket, and looked at Ouyang Hongxuan as if nothing had happened. But I felt sorry for this tired younger brother. I went missing alone, but it affected the people around me who care about me the most.
Through Ouyang Hongxuan's shoulder, Ning Xue looked apologetically at Gao Minghui standing at the door of the courtyard without saying a word. He must be working very hard these days! He has always liked cleanliness and has a blue beard.
"Are you all right?"
After receiving the apology from Ning Xue, Gao Minghui opened his mouth, but his voice was very hoarse. He has been busy day and night these days and doesn't have a good rest. He has a cold.
"I'm sorry."
After thinking for a long time, Ning Xue spit out such a sentence.
"We are sorry for you. If we find something to tell you who he is, you will definitely not suffer from this car accident. But..."
Ouyang Hongxuan lowered his head with apologies.
"But what?"
Gao Minghui paused his eyes and asked a question.
"He threatened us that if we told our sister who he was, he would take the information in his hand and let Dad finish it."
Ouyang Hongxuan, who was sad, solved the mystery that Ning Xue had been confused without thinking about it. She has been wondering why those who seem to love her and take care of her have been hiding his identity. Now it seems that everything can be explained.
It turns out that he has done a lot of hands and feet behind his back.
With a wry smile, Ning Xue stood up and greeted them into the room. On such a cold day, I'm afraid that Huo Guanyu's cooking is already cold.
After Ouyang Hongxuan and Gao Minghui entered the house, Ning Xue found that Miao Miao and Bella also came. However, they seem to get along well with Junko.
"Sister Xueer, it's okay."
Miao Miao ran over and gave Ning Xue a hug.
"Everything will be fine."
Bella came over and patted Ning Xue on the shoulder, giving her a look of encouragement.
Because of the arrival of Ouyang Hongxuan and Gao Minghui, Huo Guanyu's old house, which had been away from home for many years, suddenly became lively. However, Gao Minghui fell ill the next day. This is the worry of the other five people.
Huo Guanyu braved the rain and went to the town 30 miles away to buy medicine.
Ouyang Hongxuan couldn't go out to see the seedlings of Lamei, so he had to take her to the Lameilin that Chunzi found that day.
Chunzi, who had been bored with Ning Xue for many days, also took the opportunity to lead the way and pulled Bella as a light bulb together.
In the originally lively room, there were only two people left, Ning Xue and Gao Minghui.
"Cough... Why don't you play with them?"
Gao Minghui leaning against the head of the bed dragged a piece of paper, wiped his nose, and said with a heavy nasal voice.
"I don't want to spoil their fun."
Ning Xue handed the boiled water in her hand to Gao Minghui. Huo Guanyu said that people with colds should drink more boiled water, which will get better faster.
Gao Minghui frowned in disgust and naturally did not reach out. He has drunk three pots of water since last night. As a result, he didn't eat enough spicy eels sent by Huo Guanyu's cousin last night.
"Actually, I don't like to drink too much water when I have a cold."
She put the cup in her hand on the stool by the bed, and Ning Xue put her hand into her pocket again. After a simple smile flashed, she turned around.
"Let me stay alone in the house, I will suffocate. Xiaoxue, come and chat with me."
Gao Minghui quickly made a sound to retain Ning Xue. Only 20 hours here, he also saw Ning Xue's disguise. Although she behaved lightly, she habitually put her hand in her pocket and the faint sadness between her eyebrows revealed that she did not let go of unpleasant things.
"You should have a good rest."
Ning Xue turned around and said.
"It is said that good friends should share difficulties. Anyway, you're fine. Stay and chat with me and pass the boring time!"
Gao Minghui pretended to be pitiful, with the most sincere plea in his bright eyes.
After thinking about it, Ning Xue returned to the bedside and sat on the edge of the bed. Yes, anyway, it's boring, so let's chat and pass the boring time!
"I want to see your hand."
Gao Minghui looked at Ning Xue's right hand with some hesitation. Yesterday, I heard from Huo Guanyu that her hand was seriously injured, almost scrapped. Is the sadness between her eyebrows related to this? When Ouyang Hongxuan looked at her hand yesterday, he stood far away and didn't see clearly. Today, he wants to see what happened to the right hand that affected her mood.
"There's nothing to see."
Ning Xue didn't mean to take out her hand. It's all useless. What else is there to look like? Except for scars, there is no beauty.
While she looked down at her right arm, Gao Minghui unexpectedly pulled out Ning Xue's right hand. To his surprise, Ning Xue, who had been opposed to holding her hand, did not resist. With little effort, Ning Xue's mysterious right hand was taken in front of him.
Just a glance, Gao Minghui understood why Ning Xue did not object to her action just now. In fact, it's not that she doesn't object, but that she can't oppose it. Her hands don't need much power anymore!
Looking at his sad look, Ning Xue said indifferently, "I can accept this fact. What can't you accept?"
Holding her obviously thinner hand, Gao Minghui became irritable. The seriously injured hand needs physiotherapy and later self-exercise. Your hand has become like this. Didn't you do physical therapy or exercise actively?
"Isn't it like this after exercising? I'm too lazy to ask for trouble!"
Ning Xue said indifferently. It's not that she hasn't exercised. She can't do anything except that she can grab her mobile phone now. Gao Minghui grabbed her hand just now. She wanted to refuse to take it out, but as soon as she tried hard, her arm was sore and painful, so she gave up resisting.
"The saddest thing in life is not to encounter misfortune, but to give up hope. Even if there is a good future, as long as you give up, there will be nothing.
Gao Minghui became a little sad. Holding Ning Xue's hand, she began to massage her right hand with moderate strength. She should not give up. Even if she can no longer hold the knife, she should be optimistic to restore her right hand to its best condition.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing Gao Minghui's strange appearance, Ning Xue asked with concern.
"The eldest brother said that he had always regretted that he had listened to your mother and gave up on you, but it turned out to be his lifelong regret. If he can break through your mother's obstruction. Maybe your love will have a good result. So, don't give up. Isn't it often said that persistence is victory? Xiaoxue, you must stick to it! I believe that your hands are not as serious as you think.
Gao Minghui's hoarse voice adds a little sadness in this cold winter. Ning Xue, who had been lonely for missing Mu Tingfei, burst into tears and rolled out again. Mu Tingfei's lifelong regret is not a lifelong regret for himself.
