God said I would meet you

Summer is a season for memories.

In June, the warm current from the Pacific Ocean finally arrived in Shanghai after a long journey. The city was steaming hot. People took off their thick or thin coats and became light again. The air began to really feel the breath of summer.

The sky is always gray and white, and there are big or small rains falling from time to time. The hot and humid air and the smell of ripe plums are mixed together to form the smell of summer in Shanghai in Lin Jinyu's impression, reminiscent of watermelon, Soda, and long childhood teens.

"You want to sell your board?!"

Xu Zhao was wearing long-sleeved shorts and carrying a bag of plums. On the way to the hospital with Lin Jinyu, he suddenly heard that he planned to sell the skateboard. He was very surprised: "Isn't that your father's birthday present to you?"

That imported skateboard has been with Lin Jinyu for a long time. Over the years, the board, brackets, wheels and other messy accessories have been ground and replaced several times, but it still feels like the one that has been disassembled and repaired. He never thought of throwing the whole thing away. to buy new ones.

"Anyway, I don't have time to skate, and it's a waste to keep it," Lin Jinyu walked side by side with him, and said in a flat tone, "It's better to sell it to someone you like than to let me eat ashes."

The skateboard that was inseparable from Lin Jinyu, even when the owner was thrown to Liangshan by his father, has a special meaning to Lin Jinyu, but it is worthless. Second-hand skateboards are always worthless. You can hang them for six hundred and eighty One hundred is pretty good.

Xu Zhao scratched his head: "A few hundred yuan is not worth it."

"I know," Lin Jinyu said, "The child is going to have an operation, and the money for the operation is almost on the line. I have to contribute. The maintenance fee is also a lot, and Zhang Xinli..."

"That's enough, don't talk about it," Xu Zhao said, "I've heard too much, just sell it, and then buy it after making money."

Unknowingly, "the future" seems to owe Lin Jinyu a lot, and he hopes that one day in the future, he can get back what he lost.

"Selling the skateboard is actually not enough," Lin Jinyu grabbed the plums from the bag Xu Zhao was carrying and put them in his pocket when he was about to arrive at the hospital: "Give me some plums to appetize. I don't have a good appetite after taking the medicine."

Xu Zhao said: "I bought it for you. My mother bought a big bag yesterday. I tasted it and it was very good."

It’s nice to have a buddy, we don’t contact each other every day, but we will definitely help each other out.

"It's going to rain again." Lin Jinyu looked up at the sky and said.

……

The familiar smell of disinfectant lingers on the tip of her nose. Lin Jinyu originally had a shadow over the hospital, but for more than ten or 20 days, she has been living here, and this place is almost becoming like home. Under this passive desensitization stimulation , He actually gradually began to get used to it.

"Hey, your man is back," Xu Zhao entered the door first, he put away the things he was carrying, and greeted Zhang Xinli: "He also robbed the plums I bought for you."

Zhang Xinli was originally looking out of the window in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking about, but now he heard the voice and turned his head to look at them.

"What are you looking at?" Lin Jinyu walked to the bed naturally, looked at the bottle, adjusted the dripping speed, and looked at the blood pressure displayed on the instrument: "Eat plums first, or eat first?"

"It's nothing, just look at the sky," Zhang Xinli said, "does it look like the sky next to Haizi during summer vacation?"

The floor of the inpatient department is not too high. From here, you can only see a piece of gray and white. Countless rectangular buildings are looming in this gray and white. Lin Jinyu glanced at it and said, "No, the sky beside Haizi is much more beautiful .”

"Really, I can't remember." That was Zhang Xinli's hometown, but he couldn't remember it.

"Shanghai's sky is always foggy during the rainy season, which is not good." Without salt, Lin Jinyu put the plums in a water glass and soaked them in warm water, then turned back and said, "I will eat later, and do some activities first." After finishing speaking Lift the quilt, pinch his limbs as usual, and move his numb muscles.

Zhang Xinli followed his advice and raised his hand to do simple flexion and stretching of five fingers. The movements were clean and neat. Lin Jinyu said, "Not bad, I have made great progress. Will I be able to leave after a while?"

Zhang Xinli did not speak.

Xu Zhao sat on the side and looked at them: "This damn weather is hot, humid and stuffy... Well, it's good to be in a relationship, unlike me, I don't dare to get hurt, no one will feel sorry for me when I get hurt."

He was about to say a few more sour words when the child's mother over there came over with a thermos bucket to deliver the meal. Seeing that Lin Jinyu, who hadn't seen him early in the morning, finally came back, she stepped forward and asked without saying a word, "You're back, the doctor said, My child is too young, and his development may be affected if he is late, and his father and I are dying of anxiety, can you tell us when the money will arrive?"

"I...haven't been paying the hospital bill all the time," Lin Jinyu stood up, and gestured to the corridor with a wink: "I just paid the money yesterday, and the balance is running out so soon? It shouldn't be, it must be a mistake, I'll go and see it with you look."

He had specifically told the other party before that he would not evade his responsibilities, but when discussing the operation fee, he would discuss it alone and not in the ward. Unfortunately, his impatient parents would not strictly cooperate with him.

"Uh..." Xu Zhao also stood up: "Yes, yes, go out and talk, don't affect the patient's rest." As he spoke, he helped Lin Jinyu lead the couple out.

Zhang Xinli looked at them silently until his sight was blocked by the closed door - he lifted the quilt and stepped off the bed slowly.

……

on the corridor.

"I'm trying my best," Lin Jinyu led her away, and said, "Don't worry, give me some time."

"It's not your child, of course you are not in a hurry." The mother's sallow face showed anxiety, blame and anger: "You know how old my child is, you..."

A series of crying and accusations are like cannonballs. Although they did not take good care of the child, they themselves are also responsible, but in this case, who can say the blame?

Lin Jinyu and Xu Zhao just stood there, waiting for a mother to vent the huge pressure on her head, and she almost choked up in the end.

This scene is actually not new. Every mention of surgery fee is a torture for both parties.When the child's mother walked away wiping her tears, Lin Jinyu was silent for a moment, and said to Xu Zhao, "Help me think about what else I can sell."

"Aren't you?" Xu Zhao was almost exhausted: "I don't know, your shoes, clothes, models, old second-hand tablet, everything that can be sold, you can't steal your real estate certificate and sell it. gone."

"My name is not on the property certificate of my house, so it's useless to steal it out. Can you tell me something of value..." Lin Jinyu suddenly fell silent while talking.

"?" Xu Zhao said, "Why aren't you talking?"

"My house..." Lin Jinyu suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and said, "My house still has my things."

Going to college won't mean emptying out all his personal belongings. Lin Jinyu has indeed sold all the extra things around him, but he still has his violin in his room at home.

That violin, which is not made by a certain European master violin maker, but still considered good, should sell for tens of millions.

"Don't be kidding," Xu Zhao said, "Crazy, you also sell Qin? And how do you sell it? This expensive play is like hanging salted fish? Who will buy it!"

"I don't know, I can't help it," Lin Jinyu grabbed him: "Help me think about how to sell it as soon as possible."

"I don't want to help you," Xu Zhao threw his arm away, "I'm out of my mind. Shoes and models are all small toys. If they are sold, they will be sold. At what age did you start learning the violin? Have you sold it in the new year? Although we are not serious about music, we also have amateur loves, and I can't sell my guitar anyway, don't you love your piano?"

How could Lin Jinyu not love it? He is so lazy that he doesn't even bother to go to cram school. Apart from reading and skateboarding, there may be only one thing he has insisted on since he was 12 years old: "Love," he said: "But more need money."

"..." Xu Zhao can't wait to beat him up. When they were young, the two of them were friends. Back then, he and Lin Jinyu learned skateboarding and musical instruments together. They compared each other and agreed to learn some results. Originally, they wanted to publish novels to sell skateboards. He didn't like it after hearing it, but he thought it was a consumable, and he would just sell it for a new, better one, but the piano... that one is the same one, the tone is unique, and it will never be exactly the same again.

"It's fine if you don't want to." Lin Jinyu took out her mobile phone and clicked on the address book: "I'll ask Lin Ye, he must know after learning this."

"Shut up, you're out of your mind," Xu Zhao felt aggrieved and unwilling: "Believe it or not, I'll tell Zhang Xinli to persuade you." After he finished speaking, he turned half of his body and rushed back to the ward to take a nap. The appearance of a small report.

"Shh!" Lin Jinyu said, "Don't make any more trouble if you dare?"

"What the hell is making trouble? I'm doing it for your own good. Don't you just need a few stinky money? As for?" Xu Zhao said, "I'll ask my old man to transfer some to you, okay? What kind of violin are you selling? I think you're exhausted." If the disease relapses, you will lose your mind, hurry up and find a serious nurse to help you, look at your dark circles, when you don’t rest every day, pay attention to your work and rest, be careful and nothing.”

The doctor said last time that the relapse has a lot to do with his unhealthy routine.

"More than 5 yuan, where do you go to ask for so much at once?" Lin Jinyu said: "I don't know when the days of spending so much money will end. How many times have I borrowed money from you? Do you just point at You, will my brother help me every day?"

From a few hundred to two thousand, after that Xu Zhao gave him money several times, big and small, plus what he owed to other people, the feeling of debt tortured him every day.

"Do you think I do? Do you think you like my violin more than I like my violin?" Lin Jinyu said: "I don't like selling things, whether it's useful or not, whether there are new substitutes, from childhood to adulthood , I keep every old thing I can keep, do you think I don’t want to keep it? Do you think I’m willing to sell all the things I’ve liked since I was a child?”

Xu Zhao stopped talking.

More than ten minutes later, Lin Ye returned the voice over there, saying that he had an impression of his violin, and that it would be a good practice violin for freshman students.

Lin Jinyu turned off the phone screen after listening to the voice, and turned to go back: "Keep your mouth shut and don't tell him a word," he said, "Don't make trouble."

Silent all the way.

In the ward, the child finished his meal and was taking a nap. His parents were away, so he might have gone to do the laundry. Lin Jinyu pushed open the door——

The window was open, and the summer wind was blowing slowly.The warm water was already cold, and blue plums were floating on the clear water. Zhang Xinli stood by the window with his hands on the window sill, silently looking at the sky and tall buildings outside the window.

"You..." Lin Jinyu was stunned for a moment, a little dazed, unable to react: "How...when will you..."

The hospital is located in the urban area. From here, the majesty and prosperity of the city can be seen everywhere.

Not far away is the hanging needle that has been pulled out for a long time. Zhang Xinli leaned against the window and turned his head, looking at his lover in the hot and humid wind of the rainy season.

"Lin Jinyu." Zhang Xinli called his name in a calm voice, but Xu Zhao could clearly see his eyes were red.

He said, "Let's... separate."
