Gu Ziyi sat up in a panic, "My mother is here, I won't tell you anymore." Then she hung up the video call, "Come in."
Yi Yi came in with cut fruit, "I cut some fruit for you, you can eat it."
"Thank you, mom." Gu Ziyi clasped the phone and put it behind her.
Yi Yi touched her head, "Are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep for a while? It will probably take half an hour before you can eat. Are you hungry now?"
"It's okay, just eat some fruit. Sorry for bothering mom. You work so hard and you still cook for me." Gu Ziyi hugged Yi Yi's arm and started acting coquettishly.
Yi Yi raised her hand and pinched Gu Ziyi's nose, "Okay, okay, stop acting like a baby. I'll go to the kitchen and keep an eye on it. If you're sleepy, just take a nap for a while. Mom will call you later."
"Yeah, yeah." Gu Ziyi nodded obediently.
After Yi Yi left, she ate a few more pieces of fruit, then really lay down, ready to sleep for twenty minutes.
—
Luo Lian was hung up on Gu Ziyi in a panic, and she was a little confused.
Then he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Why does it feel like you are in middle and high school dating, and you are afraid of being discovered by your family, that kind of secretive way.
But... Is Gu Ziyi's nickname "Guaiguai"
Luo Lian took her cell phone into the bedroom, took a few minutes to take a shower, and then ordered a takeaway for herself. What we eat in the evening is very simple, just a rice bowl.
He was sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for me.
After a while, the doorbell rang, and Luo Lian got up and opened the door.
The delivery boy rushed over and said, "Give me a good review, thank you."
"Okay." Luo Lian agreed.
Then I saw Deng Zhiming and Chen Chu just coming out of the elevator opposite.
Chen Chu's belly is a little big and she is several months pregnant.
Deng Zhiming saw Luo Lian first, "Are you back?"
Luo Lian opened the door and walked out, "Well, I just came back today. What are you...?"
"I'm accompanying her to the prenatal check-up." Deng Zhiming supported Chen Chu.
Chen Chu smiled at Luo Lian.
"Then you go back quickly. It's not convenient for my sister-in-law to stand for a long time now. I'll ask you to come over for dinner when I have time." Luo Lian was quite enthusiastic.
Deng Zhiming nodded: "Okay, you go in. You'll have time tomorrow." He helped Chen Chu enter 503.
Luo Lian also returned the 501.
He ate in the living room, laying a newspaper as a cushion. He had just taken two bites when there was a knock on the door.
Luo Lian swallowed the food in his mouth and went to open the door.
Standing at the door was Deng Zhiming.
"What's wrong? Brother Deng." Luo Lian asked.
Deng Zhiming held an envelope in his hand, "I just remembered it. You were not at home a while ago, and then Grandma Fan moved away, leaving letters for you and Miss Gu from 502. When you were not here, Grandma Fan left The letter was given to me. Now that you are back, I have to give you this letter."
"How long has Grandma Fan been gone?" Luo Lian asked.
Deng Zhiming thought for a while, "It has been more than a week. Her daughter and son-in-law came to pick her up. It seems that she is very good to her, and her daughter and son-in-law take good care of her."
"Oh oh oh, thank you."
"Oh, you're welcome." Deng Zhiming waved his hand, "I'm back."
"OK."
The two of them went back to their houses.
Luo Lian took the letter and sat on the sofa. He continued to eat, and when he was almost done eating, he opened the envelope.
Grandma Fan's handwriting is okay, not particularly sloppy, and of course not particularly good-looking. It can barely be understood.
There were two pieces of paper stuffed inside. It looked like Grandma Fan had written a lot.
Luo Lian unfolded the letter.
"Xiao Luo:
I have lived in this community for more than ten years, and my neighbors have changed one after another. Some are about the same age as me, some are about the same age as you, and some are even younger.
Over the years, grandma, I have met many young people. Although I don't have the best discernment, I can still recognize people to some extent after living for such a long time. Xiao Gu and I met relatively early, and she is really a good child.
It can be seen that her family environment must be very good. But she never had the airs of a rich person. She just doesn't seem that easy to get along with on the surface, but she's actually a very nice person. She helped me a lot during the two or three years she lived here. The young couple next door also helped me a little, but Xiao Gu really didn't mind my trouble.
As for me, I live alone and my legs and feet are not very agile. There was no nanny at first. Besides going to work every day, Xiao Gu would occasionally come over to talk to me. Today's young people rarely have such people, and they are more bored with us older people. Because of the big age gap, there really aren’t that many topics to talk about.
But she is different, she is really nice. I rarely see a girl as nice as her. So grandma wants to tell you, don’t miss her.
When it comes to feelings, it's hard to explain exactly what they are. But grandma thinks that you two are good children and will get better together. I don’t know if you agree with what grandma said.
The time I have been in contact with you is not as long as the time I have been in contact with Xiao Gu.
But grandma knows that you are also a very good child.
Grandma can see that you are hiding a lot of things on your mind. Sometimes you don’t even know it, but when you force yourself to smile, you can’t hide your eyes.
We are all ordinary people. We are not born actors, nor have we deliberately studied acting. Sometimes we really can’t hide our emotions.
Grandma’s advice is that there is no really big ordeal in life that will knock you to the ground and make you unable to stand up. When you encounter setbacks, face them head-on and rise to the occasion. A good kid like you will definitely have his own solution. Never let yourself be immersed in the bottom, it is often easy to lose yourself at that time.
I don’t know if the advice given by grandma is applicable. I just wrote it like this. If it works, take a look. If it doesn’t, just forget it.
It is unlikely that we will have the chance to meet again in the future. I just hope that you two good children will be fine. "
Luo Lian received a letter from someone else for the first time.
After reading it, I couldn't calm down for a long time.
Very simple words, all told the truth, and every word comes from the heart. Luo Lian was touched by being taken so seriously by others.
His heart was beating with indescribable emotion. Following the words in this letter, it stuck to my heart.
A very warm feeling.
Because someone is thinking about you.
Luo Lian looked at it again. There were no fancy words in the letter, it was just what Grandma Fan wanted to say.
After reading it, he stuffed the letter back into the envelope. Then he took the envelope and put it on his bedside table.
He thought...he would treasure this letter.
The future will definitely be as Grandma Fan hopes, and he and Gu Ziyi will be fine.
