Li Wei taught patiently for a while, and Qi Jingyi learned quickly.
Li Jianbo said on the shore: "If you don't even know how to paddle a dog, how can you learn how to swim?"
"You can't learn. I think Sister Qi learns quite quickly."
The two of them soaked in the water for nearly an hour. Later, Qi Jingyi suddenly suffered from cramps. Li Jianbo and Li Wei took Qi Jingyi ashore together.
The two of them wrapped themselves in bath towels and went back to the house to change clothes. After cleaning up, Li Wei felt a little cold. Li Jianbo said from the side: "You go into the pool without a swimming cap. Washing your hair with cold water will give you a headache."
"No, second brother, you are worrying too much." Li Wei smiled playfully, and while wiping his hair, he asked Li Jianbo what he wanted to eat for dinner. Then she went into the kitchen to get busy.
Li Jianbo went upstairs, and Qi Jingyi was sitting on the sofa reading a magazine. The magazine was an interview with a young dancer and published a huge photo of the dancer. Qi Jingyi, her former colleague, naturally recognized this person. She stared blankly at the photo, her mind empty and she forgot everything around her.
Li Jianbo saw her in a daze and sat over without thinking. He followed Qi Jingyi's gaze and finally discovered the crux of the problem.
"Is this a jazz dance she dances?"
"What's that look in your eyes? This isn't Jazz, it's obviously Latin." Qi Jingyi explained to Li Jianbo.
"Oh, I'm a layman, so I can't tell the difference inside. What kind of dance did auntie do before?"
"Classical dance." Qi Jingyi's eyes dimmed again. She once had her glory, but now it seems that those glories are like fireworks blooming in the night sky. Although they are gorgeous, they are too short-lived. She didn't want to touch anything about dance anymore, so she quickly closed the book and threw it aside. Li Jianbo knew in his heart that dancing was a forbidden area for his aunt.
"My dream since I was a child is to be a doctor. Being able to treat diseases and save people feels great. Weiwei may not have had any dreams at first. She didn't come into contact with the hosting circle until she was in high school. Later, it is said that she applied for a related major and successfully stood up. On the stage. My aunt had a dream when she was a girl, so she performed with the dance troupe for many years, and she never complained. Later, her hard work finally paid off, and her dream came true when she earned so many trophies. It has been, and it was so brilliant. No matter what, it is enough to have been brilliant. After all, you have stood on the stage for more than ten years and devoted the best time of your life to the stage. Do you have any regrets? "
Qi Jingyi listened to her nephew's words quietly, and then said after a long while: "Yes, I have been brilliant before, so there is nothing to regret. I don't regret it anymore."
Because she has been chasing her dream, she has won praise and countless applause and flowers. Because of her dream, she met that person.
But besides dancing, what else can she do? But she knows nothing. It's just that she was deceived and tricked. That's why she imprisoned herself and has been unable to get out for more than ten years.
Qi Jingyi cried as she thought about it.
"There are countless hurdles in life, and you have to pass them one by one. If you don't cross these hurdles, you won't be able to see the scenery ahead. Auntie, you are my elder. You are a few years older than me, but you are not necessarily as good at looking at problems as you are. I can see clearly, I think, sometimes it’s better to be more open-minded. If you always get into trouble, there will be no way out.”
"I..." Faced with these words that struck her heart, Qi Jingyi suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Auntie, there is no obstacle that cannot be overcome. If you have any difficulties, tell us and we can work out a solution together. We can solve it together."
Qi Jingyi lowered her head. She had never felt so inferior before.
Li Jianbo put down these words and walked away. He didn't want to force anyone. He could only move forward after Qi Jingyi figured it out.
Li Wei was busy slicing meat when Li Jianbo came in.
"How can I help?"
Li Wei turned around and gave two garlics to her second brother: "If you have nothing to do, help me peel this."
Li Jianbo squatted down and slowly helped peel the garlic. Li Wei cut the meat and asked, "Have you talked to Sister Qi?"
"It's just a few words. She has to rely on herself to get out of the demonic barrier."
"Although Sister Qi is not too old, she has experienced ups and downs in these years that others may not experience in their lifetime. She stood up from the previous two ups and downs, but this time she may have been completely destroyed. . Second brother, when I first met Sister Qi, I thought she was really an elegant and intellectual woman who knew how to dress well and had an outstanding temperament. She was simply the woman I longed for. It wasn’t until I got to know her further that I discovered her experience. I think Sister Qi is really lonely. She has no one to talk to for so many years. She has no friends and no lover. It is not easy for her to survive as a woman today. "
"It's not easy, but aren't we all the same? We all grow up step by step through setbacks. Including you and me. But I never thought about giving up. In short, her heart is too fragile."
Li Wei was busy preparing the food, and Li Jianbo helped her put the food on the table. Qi Jingyi stayed in her room, and Li Wei went to ask her to come over for dinner.
"I remember making a cold beef dish for Sister Qi in 1998. Sister Qi liked it very much at the time. Come and try it. Is it still the same as before?"
Li Wei specially placed the cold beef dish in front of Qi Jingyi. Qi Jingyi took a small piece and took a bite. The spicy and delicious taste was still the same as before. She smiled and said, "Same as before."
"Sister Qi, if you like it, eat more."
After dinner, Li Jianbo washed the dishes, while Li Wei and Qi Jingyi looked for a program to watch in front of the TV. Later, they found a TV series starring Zhao Qian, and she skipped it without thinking.
That night Qi Jingyi proposed to go back to her room to sleep, and Li Wei agreed. When she returned to her room at half past ten, Li Jianbo had already gone into the room and slept early. Li Jianbo will go to the outpatient clinic tomorrow for a consultation.
In the middle of the night, Li Wei felt thirsty and poured some water. She took the cup and walked out of the room. The light in the room was dim. When she walked to the water dispenser, she found a person lying on the ground.
Li Wei was shocked and hurriedly went to pull the people on the ground, and then called Li Jianbo.
Li Jianbo ran out in a hurry and understood the situation as soon as he saw it: "She took an overdose of sleeping pills. The vital signs are still there, but the situation is already very critical. You call 120 and I will deal with her first."
This night is destined to be another sleepless night for No. 153 Cuiwei Road.
