Grandpa

Yuan Xialiu died.

Died on the sixth day after Huang Yuwen's first seven days.

That night, Yuan Xialiu had a rare and peaceful sleep.

When she got up the next morning, the pinch mark on her neck had disappeared without a trace. If she hadn't seen the palm-sized straw man lying in front of the bed and the small white porcelain bottle next to it, she would almost have thought that the past few days Everything that happened was just a dream.

She was in a trance, muttering to herself.

"Huang Yuwen, it's gone..."

As she spoke, her eyes gradually became brighter.

"Huang Yuwen is gone!"

She finally freed herself—

Yuan Xialiu sat up directly, stretched out his hands to cover his eyes, and wept with joy.

But before the tears fell, a chill came over her body, she shivered, silently withdrew her hand, and retracted into the quilt again, and then heard a cheerful cat meowing from the yard.

I vaguely heard Shao Yunqu say in a half helpless and half loving tone: "You like snow so much?"

After nestling for a while, she mustered up the courage to lift the quilt.The room was alright, with the air conditioner blowing, the coldness was not so obvious.After she finished washing, she opened the door, and snowflakes fell all over the sky like goose feathers.The ground and the roof are all white, as if the whole world is silvery white, shining.

The cold wind blowing on her face made her shrink back involuntarily, followed by a sore nose and sneezed.

I don't wear enough clothes. It was a sunny day yesterday. The heavy snow is obviously coming, and God is so unpredictable.She thought that she would have to turn out the down jacket at the bottom of the box when she went back later.

She looked forward and saw that a snowman had been piled up in the yard, one person tall, with a carrot stuck in its nose, and an ice sculpture kitten lying on its head, which looked lifelike.

In the snow beside him, Shao Yun bent over, holding an orange cat in his hand, the snow almost covered half of his neck.

The orange cat opened its exquisite cat eyes, stretched out its paws, left and right to pick up the snow on the ground, and turned its head from time to time to call out to Shao Yun.

This picture is very warm, and the orange cat is also good-looking. Yuan Xialiu became interested. She took out her phone and took a photo with a click.

Hearing the sound of the shutter, Shao Yun turned his head away.

Yuan Xialiu decisively saved the photos and put away her phone, acting as if nothing had happened.

Shao Yunqu didn't care, the orange cat in his hand struggled and jumped down, and fell straight into the snow, only a fluffy tail was exposed outside.

The orange cat huddled in the snow for a while, and then got half of its head out.

Shao Yunqu was about to stretch out his hands to take it out, but saw it kicked its legs and jumped up, and the snowflakes it brought splashed Shao Yunqu's face.

It flicked its ears, and jumped up again the moment it landed, like a happy Erha, probably because it was interested, it danced around Shao Yun several times in a row.It wasn't until Lao Shen came out of the kitchen and yelled that it was time to eat, then it jumped out of the snow and entered the room full of enthusiasm.

Shao Yun went and immediately led Yuan Xialiu to the living room, Yuan Xialiu was still immersed in the appearance of the orange cat having fun, his heart fluttered, and he couldn't help asking: "Is that kitten raised by you, my junior? Very cute."

Shao Yun curled the corner of his lips: "That's right."

Not only cute but also very well-behaved, he thought, no matter what, he must be raised for a lifetime.

The two of them chatted one after another. After ten minutes, Wei Xiuluo walked in. He was tightly wrapped up, with joy in his eyes that hadn't dissipated, and he chatted with Yuan Xialiu. After saying hello, he sat next to Shao Yun.

After breakfast, Lao Shen drove the three of them to the gate of Peking University. When they parted, Yuan Xialiu looked sincere and said that he would invite the two of them to dinner in return for saving their lives.

Shao Yun went to shirk, but agreed.

It's a pity that the two of them couldn't eat the meal in the end.

Not long after Yuan Xialiu and Shao Yun went to separate, her mentor called. She had no choice but to give up the plan of going back to the dormitory to find out the down jacket at the bottom of the box, and hurried to the meeting place agreed with the mentor. place.

She caught a cold at night. At that time, her nose was blocked and her forehead was a little hot. Generally speaking, it was not serious, so she didn't take it seriously. She just asked her roommate to go to the infirmary to get some cold medicine, and then continued to work. The task assigned to her by the instructor went.

The next day, her condition worsened, her cold turned into a high fever, and she passed out in the office. Thanks to her mentor who found out in time, she was sent to the hospital.

Since then, Yuan Xialiu's condition has been erratic, plus the previous one was very sad and happy, and her mental state was not very good, so she was forced to live in the hospital.

The heavy snow fell intermittently for five days, and on Sunday, the weather finally cleared up.

Some officers of the Student Union of the School of Economics and Management planned to take advantage of the good weather to visit Yuan Xialiu in the hospital together, Wei Xiuluo also signed up, and the leader of the team was of course the current President of the Student Union, Zhao Jingshuo.

When they arrived at the place, Yuan Xialiu's mother was also there. She was an amiable aunt, about forty years old. When she saw Zhao Jingshuo and others coming, she quickly greeted her, "Oh, it's not a serious illness. You have worked so hard to run here. one trip."

Zhao Jingshuo had a concerned smile on his face: "Don't say that, we are all Xia Liu's friends and classmates, Xia Liu has not recovered from her illness for so long, how can we rest assured if we don't come to see it!"

As he said that, he turned his head to look at Yuan Xialiu, who was pale on the hospital bed and was trying to pull himself together, "How do you feel now? Are you better? What did the doctor say?"

"Fortunately, there is no major problem in general, but too many things have happened during this period..." Yuan Xialiu looked haggard, "The doctor said that it would be fine if he was ill for a few days, and it should be almost the same after a few days of recuperation. "

Zhao Jingshuo nodded: "Then you take good care of your illness, we are all waiting for you to come back!"

The other people present immediately agreed, and after chatting for a while, the nurse pushed the cart and knocked on the door, shouting, "It's time for an injection."

"Okay." Mother Yuan replied, and then looked at Yuan Xialiu who was on the hospital bed: "Let's go to the bathroom first."

"En." Yuan Xialiu nodded.

The nurse was absent, and all the people present were boys, so it was not easy to come forward to help.Mother Yuan had no choice but to help Yuan Xialiu alone.

Reluctantly getting out of bed, Yuan Xialiu, who had just taken two steps, was already weak and unable to exert all her strength, her legs went limp, and she fell down with her mother Yuan.

With quick hands and quick eyes, Wei Xiuluo jumped up from the stool, took two quick steps forward, and barely supported the two of them.

It's just that he moved too much, and accidentally bumped into Yuan Xialiu's head.

"Hmm." The two couldn't help but cried out in pain one after another.

The ward became chaotic in an instant, and the nurse at the side didn't care about ordering the medicine, so she hurried forward to help, and finally sent Yuan Xialiu to the bathroom.

Wei Xiuluo returned to his seat and rubbed his head, there was a big swelling there as expected.

Just between these presses, a few strands of hair fluttered tremblingly down to the ground between his fingers.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Jingshuo, who was planning how to get closer to Wei Xiuluo, was short of breath. He calmly stepped on a hair that floated in front of him, and then took advantage of Yuan Xialiu's exit from the toilet. When he came out, everyone's attention was attracted, he bent down pretending to be calm and picked up the hair.

He retracted his hands into his pockets, holding the strand of hair firmly, sweat slowly seeped out of his palms.

His heart was burning, he didn't care about what Yuan Xialiu and the others said, he just said silently in his heart, this hair is worth 20.

The more he thought about it, the more impatient he became. Fortunately, Wei Xiuluo and the others took into account Yuan Xialiu's physical condition and didn't bother her for too long. After only ten minutes, the group got up and said goodbye.

After leaving the hospital, someone proposed to go to a nearby playground and have a meal or something.Zhao Jingshuo couldn't be in the mood to have fun, so he found an excuse and hurried back to school.

As soon as he left, the rest of the people lost their interest more or less, and they dispersed after playing for a while.

At noon the next day, at the student union's routine lunch meeting, the news of Yuan Xialiu's death came out.
