Recuperating in the old house of the Li family for a few days, the gauze on Li Qingzhou's head was finally removed, and the wound had basically healed, leaving only shallow traces on the side of the head where the hair was covering.
Li Chengkang's family left after one day's stay in the old house.
Because the back of Li Hongjie's foot was so swollen that he was "fat" than the other foot.
Mr. Li asked him what was going on.
Li Hongjie hesitantly said that he accidentally slapped his foot and did not see the stones on the side of the road.
Mr. Li didn't ask any more questions.
The old house of the Li family was built in the suburbs a distance from the center of Xicheng, with a quiet environment and beautiful water.
After the Li Chengkang family left, the old house suddenly became much quieter.
Butlers and nannies work in silence.
Li Hanyu is in her third year of high school. Although she doesn't have to live on campus, her studies are stressful times, and most of them can only meet people at lunchtime.
Li Xusheng has just entered the first grade of primary school, and the schoolwork is not heavy.
However, other children love to play, play, and act like a spoiled child, and they can't relax for a moment.
Li Xusheng, however, likes to lie down on the desk or coffee table with the exercise book in his arms and write and do calculations.
Although Li Qingzhou lives in the old house of the Li family with his two younger sisters and younger brothers, he looks like a stranger and doesn't speak a few words a day.
They are a little strange and awkward to each other, as if there is a line in the middle that cannot be easily crossed...
Mr. Li thought that even if Li Qingzhou stayed in the old house, he would meet and work remotely every day...
He wouldn't even step out the door unless he was eating.
But what he didn't expect was that Li Qingzhou got up on time every day. After washing, he turned his wheelchair to go out by himself, and walked around the forest path in the early morning before returning.
Next is breakfast time.
At this point, Li Hanyu had already taken the packed meal to school, and only Grandpa Li and Li Xusheng were at the table.
- People who cannot walk with their legs and feet do have a lot of inconvenience in life.
For example, the heights of desks, chairs, washbasins, and beds that are suitable for normal people may not be suitable for disabled people.
I don't know since when, some furniture in the old house has been quietly replaced, just like everything in Li Qingzhou's room, it has become a suitable size for him.
For this, Li Hongjie complained secretly, and even mocked Li Qingzhou many times.
Later, although Li Qingzhou stayed in the old house for less time, the layout of the old house has not changed.
— just like this dining table.
Li Qingzhou only needs to turn the wheelchair to go there, and he doesn't have to change his seat to eat.
After breakfast, the driver will take Li Xusheng to school.
Mr. Li would go to the courtyard of the old house and sit on the rocking chair to listen to opera or cross talk.
At first, Li Qingzhou would look at the courtyard in the living room for a while before leaving.
Slowly, Li Qingzhou began to enter the courtyard.
From picking a garden flower, feeding the fish, to staying by the old man's side and closing his eyes to rest, step by step.
The atmosphere of the courtyard is always set off by the long opera or funny cross talk on the radio, which makes it more comfortable and comfortable.
It is rare for the old and the young to get along well.
…
This weekend.
Li Hanyu and Li Xusheng are both at home, and there is a small study room on the second floor for children to study, which is usually undisturbed.
When Li Qingzhou entered the living room from the courtyard, Li Xusheng was walking down the stairs step by step holding the exercise book, his face was slightly depressed and listless.
Li Xusheng walked to the last stairs, raised his head and saw Li Qingzhou was right in front of him, and called out to his brother.
"What's the matter?" Li Qingzhou asked, glancing at the exercise book in his arms.
Li Xusheng's chubby little hands clenched the stair railing and said, "Today, the tutor is asking for leave. I have a lot of questions that I can't do. My sister is busy. I want to ask grandpa..."
Mr. Li fell asleep in the warm courtyard, covered with the plush blanket that Li Qingzhou asked for from the housekeeper.
Li Qingzhou said, "Come with me."
After he finished speaking, he turned the wheelchair and walked towards his room.
When he noticed that there was no movement behind him, he looked back again with a light expression: "Don't hurry."
Li Xusheng shivered, and immediately followed him with short legs.
"Which question can't be done?" Li Qingzhou asked.
There are no chairs in Li Qingzhou's room.
Li Xusheng sat on the bed and felt the soft and dry quilt, feeling a little helpless.
Hearing the voice, he hurriedly spread out the exercise booklet on his lap and pointed to several places left blank: "Here, this, and..."
"Um."
Li Qingzhou immediately took a pen and explained it to him softly, and wrote a few steps in the exercise book at the same time.
Li Xusheng opened his mouth slightly, his eyes widened, and he looked a little stunned.
It was not until Li Qingzhou asked him again that he came back to his senses, and two red clouds suddenly appeared on his chubby face.
He whispered in a low voice, "Brother, brother, please say it again, okay..."
He just lost his mind and didn't understand the steps to solve the problem at all.
Li Qingzhou explained it again patiently.
He speaks clearly and clearly, and he also draws inferences from one case to another, in-depth splits...
Li Xusheng gradually became fascinated and immersed in it. Before he knew it, he changed from sitting on the bed to lying on the bed, with the elementary school math Olympiad exercise book before him.
After completing the three questions, a piece of chocolate was put down on the exercise book.
Li Xusheng raised his head in a sigh.
Li Qingzhou's expression remained unchanged: "Reward."
Li Xusheng was immediately shy, his little heart was beating, and he felt faintly happy. He took off his shoes and curled his little toes, sat up and said, "Thank you, brother."
"Well, you're welcome."
Chocolate sweet.
After Li Xusheng finished eating, he solved all the remaining problems under the guidance of Li Qingzhou, and was rewarded with two more pieces, which he put into his pocket.
"If you have any questions, you can come and ask me." Li Qingzhou said.
Li Xusheng nodded with a rosy face.
…
Li Xusheng came out of Li Qingzhou's room with the exercise book in his arms. When he walked up to the second floor, he was suddenly covered by Li Hanyu who appeared from the corner, and held it under his arm into the small study.
After putting down Li Xusheng, Li Hanyu turned around and locked the door.
"elder sister?"
Li Xusheng tilted his head and looked at her with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong with you?"
Li Hanyu squatted in front of his younger brother and asked with a strange expression, "Shengsheng... How did you come out of his room?"
"Didn't you go to see Grandpa?"
Li Xusheng showed her the exercise book of the elementary school math Olympiad, with a slightly excited tone, and tiptoed: "Brother teach me to do the questions."
"Brother said it well, I understand everything."
"He took the initiative to teach you?!"
"Um!"
Li Hanyu pursed his lips: "He... would be so enthusiastic?"
Li Xusheng took out his pocket, took out two pieces of chocolate and said, "My brother gave me a reward, do you want my sister to eat it?"
Li Hanyu: "Who wants to eat it, can't I buy chocolate by myself, and the nanny can do it..."
That being said, she didn't take her eyes off the chocolate.
"Well."
Seeing this, Li Xusheng wanted to withdraw his little hand, but one of the chocolates was quickly taken away.
Li Xusheng blinked in surprise.
Li Hanyu calmly explained: "A child will have a toothache if he eats too much sweet food. My sister will share it for you. Also, he said he wants to teach you to solve a problem, so will you be obedient?"
"Forget how he ignored you and treated you coldly..."
Not just for you, but also for me...
Li Xusheng squeezed his fingers and whispered, "I forgot."
Reihan choked.
She waved her hand weakly: "I finish my homework and watch the cartoon, otherwise I will play chess with my grandfather, and I have to read a book."
"Oh."
Li Xusheng then put down the exercise book and walked away obediently with the chocolate.
Li Hanyu turned the pages of the book but couldn't read it.
She couldn't help but think of the day when Li Qingzhou came back to his old house from Yanjing - Li Hongjie blocked him in the corridor and said some disgusting words and sarcasm.
Li Hanyu hid in the dark and peeked, his lungs were about to explode.
So, she waited until Li Hongjie limped back to the room and knocked on the door.
When Li Hongjie opened the door, she aimed at his right foot that had just been run over by the wheelchair and stepped on it quickly and ruthlessly.
Li Hongjie immediately screamed.
And Li Hanyu trotted all the way back to his room...
"Ah—why did I do that back then."
After Li Hanyu finished recalling, he couldn't help hugging his head and shouting softly, and after a while he muttered: "You should change your shoes before stepping on him..."
— for her little leather shoes with heels.
…
Li Qingzhou will return to Yanjing from Xicheng after recuperating.
Before leaving, Mr. Li called him to the study on the first floor to talk.
—In addition to talking about the land auction in the northern suburbs of Yanjing, he also talked about Li Qingzhou's maternal grandfather's family.
Li Qingzhou's grandfather, Zhuang Weihua, is a professor at the School of Medicine of Yanjing University A.
My grandmother was also a teacher at University A, and my uncle, Zhuang Wenwei, who inherited family education, is now a surgeon at Yanjing Hospital.
The news that Li Qingzhou was hospitalized in a car accident was somehow known to Zhuang Wenwei.
Two days ago, Zhuang Wenwei called to inquire about his nephew's situation. In addition, it was Grandpa Li Qingzhou's birthday soon, and he wanted to wait for him to have time to have a light meal together when he returned to Yanjing.
Afraid of Li Qingzhou's rejection, Zhuang Wenwei said warmly on the phone, "When the time comes, Han Yu and Sheng Sheng will also pick up Yanjing and eat at home... Your grandparents miss you very much."
Li Qingzhou agreed: "Okay, I will go there."
Zhuang Wenwei hung up the phone.
Old Man Li said, "Say hello to your grandfather and grandma for me."
Li Qingzhou nodded.
It seemed that there was nothing else to talk about, and the atmosphere in the study suddenly fell silent.
After a long while, Mr. Li said, "Go, pay attention to your body outside and rest on time."
Li Qingzhou responded, then turned the wheelchair and left the study.
After opening the door, he paused and said softly, "You also pay attention to your body."
The sound of the wheelchair turning gradually faded away.
After a while, the housekeeper knocked on the door and came in, and saw Mr. Li standing in front of the window looking out—the window was directly opposite the gate of the old house of the Li family.
"That kid Qingzhou... Has he started to learn to let go?" Mr. Li said in a low voice, with a little emotion and a sigh.
Butler: "Eldest young master should have heard what you said before."
"I hope..."
Mr. Li's voice was a little hoarse: "When Cheng Liang and Wen Ying just passed away, I ignored him too much. When I wanted to make up for it, the child had completely closed himself."
"... It's because I haven't been a good grandpa."
- The grief of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person can be imagined.
At that time, Mr. Li suddenly lost his proud eldest son, as well as his gentle and graceful daughter-in-law, and almost fell ill.
But he held on.
After all, Li Hanyu and Li Xusheng were both young at that time.
Especially Li Xusheng, a small and soft mass, who still doesn't know what an eternal parting is...
And Mr. Li had to admit that at that time he was somewhat angry with Li Qingzhou - he couldn't say anything more, he could only choose to ignore it for the time being...
But come to think of it, he was wrong.
Butler: "You are kind to the eldest young master. The eldest young master has always seen it in his eyes. I believe that this time back, the eldest young master is also working hard to make changes."
—Like Mr. Li’s study, there is an extra bouquet of flowers picked from the courtyard, more chocolates and desserts at home, and an extra chair in the eldest master’s room…
Outside the window, the door of the old house of the Li family.
When Li Qingzhou got into the car, Li Xusheng ran to see him off, Li Hanyu followed slowly, and waited for the car to drive a distance before cocking his feet to look.
After the car disappeared, the two returned hand in hand.
