Chapter 48: Healing life is a ritual

    Later, although doctor Liu Yong felt a little confused, he still respected the patient's opinion and helped Jiang Qi to 'round lie'.

    So Zhiqi was somewhat disappointed.

    In the ward, the little girl stood beside the huge bed and looked at the thin mist of Lin Lan's winter morning, her brows drooping with grievances.

     

    "I'm not angry." Zhixi sighed slightly, but muttered in a muffled voice: "It's just a pity."

    Finally, Zhi Minglin and Mei Ran agreed to accept him and let them take Jiang Qi back - as a result, the hospital's rules and regulations became the 'Cheng Yaojin' who was killed halfway.

    Jiang Qi smiled slightly, but did not speak, thinking that Zhiqi was still young and not as mature as her brother.

    But... he hoped that she would always be so simple, that she could be protected and coaxed by himself in the palm of his hand.

    "I'm sorry, Qixi." Jiang Qi's voice was very low, almost muttering to himself. After this sentence, his voice became louder. The cold voice covered Zhixi's ears, which was difficult to detect. The firm said: "Next year, I will definitely go."

    "Okay." The girl laughed again, looking at him with crooked eyes: "What do you do this year?"

    It would be pitiful if Jiang Qi was alone in the hospital.

    To be honest, Zhiqi is really a bit reluctant.

    But in fact, Jiang Qi never took the keywords 'New Year' and 'New Year's Eve' to heart—he never missed festivals, not even birthdays, let alone New Years.

    It's just that Jiang Qi didn't want to pour cold water on the little girl, so he thought about it and came up with an 'entertainment' activity: "Well, watch TV."

    Just stay in the hospital and watch the Spring Festival Gala.

    Imagine the teenager watching TV alone in the ward, Zhiqi couldn't help feeling sad and funny, the girl's black eyes rolled, and it didn't take a moment for a hint of slyness to flash in her eyes.

    Maybe not a very shrewd 'good way'.

    But she didn't want the teenager to spend the whole day of New Year's Eve alone.

    In the blink of an eye, half a month passes, time is like an arrow that leaves the string, passing quickly.

    Zhiqi obediently ate New Year's Eve dinner at home on New Year's Eve, accompanied her family to watch the Spring Festival Gala for a while, and then waited for Zhiyu to leave after the old couple couldn't bear to ask When I went to rest, I quietly picked up the coat on the shelf and put it on my body, and slipped out the door.

    The little girl also grabbed a bunch of things from the fireworks box at the door.

     

    Zhi Qi was wearing a milk tea-colored wool coat, and she didn't feel cold when she went out with a scarf.

    The girl took a taxi to the fifth hospital when she went out, and kept urging the driver all the way, and finally arrived at the entrance of the nursing home before twelve o'clock.

    —Fortunately, she is a registered 'family member', and the nurses on duty in the New Year's Eve are very familiar with her, otherwise they would definitely not let anyone in to visit in the middle of the night.

    Zhi Qi smiled and thanked her, and then ran to Jiang Qi's ward.

    It's so late, I don't know if Jiang Qi slept or not.

    Zhixi thought aimlessly, and opened the door of the ward with a small hand. Accompanied by the hilarious accompaniment of the Spring Festival Gala, the boy who was leaning on the bed turned his head in surprise. .

    The girl clearly saw that there was no emotion in the light-colored glazed pupils, but in an instant, they opened up little by little.

    Vaguely brighter than the night sky outside.

    "Jiang Qi." Zhiqi couldn't help laughing, her porcelain white teeth biting her frozen red lips: "Happy New Year."

    In fact, she had already said it on WeChat, but she still wanted to come over and say the most ordinary congratulations to him in front of him on New Year's Day, just like every living being .

    Jiang Qi didn't answer, but got off the bed and walked towards her step by step.

    "Jiang..." Zhixi looked at him with some surprise, a name was not yet complete, the door behind him was blocked by a big hand with a 'bang', followed by There was an overwhelming cold air about him.

    Like pine in the cold winter, with a cold aroma.

     

    Thinking of this, two warm hands held the girl's face, as if to help her keep warm.

    Zhi Qi raised her head dizzily and responded to Jiang Qi's kiss obediently.

      "

    Zhixi asked him to make a wish during the day, and what he promised was... to see her.

    "Hmm." Zhiqi's lips were even redder when he kissed him, like a red plum in the snow on her little white face, and at this moment they closed one by one: "What wish did you make? "

    Jiang Qi smiled and did not answer.

    Fortunately, Zhiqi was not obsessed with this issue. Soon, she took out a thermal insulation box from the large bag she was carrying, and held it up in front of Jiang Qi as if offering a treasure, her eyes were curved. He smiled and said, "Eat dumplings."

    Jiang Qi was startled.

    "I remember that you like to eat dumplings with Sanxian stuffing, so I asked my aunt at home to teach me how to make this stuffing at night." Zhiqi pulled the boy to sit in front of the sofa together, put The box is opened on the coffee table, and the umami immediately lingers.

    The performance of the insulation box is excellent, and the dumplings are still warm.

    Zhixi held her chin and looked at him: "Try it now."

    Jiang Qi didn't speak, after a while, he picked up a dumpling and tasted it: "Delicious."

    "Really?" Zhiqi's eyes lit up: "It's my first time doing it, isn't I very talented?"

    Although she didn't eat it herself - girls don't like to eat leeks, so naturally a series of dishes related to leeks are not eaten, of course, including three fresh dumplings.

    Jiang Qi smiled and nodded: "Really."

    In fact, he has never had any special requirements for food, there is no particular favorite food or particularly disliked food, he has always been in the state of 'it's okay to stutter'.

    The reason why Zhiqi thinks he likes to eat dumplings with three fresh fillings actually stems from the time when they were in elementary school many years ago, when the girl brought him meals every day at noon.

    When she was a child, Zhiqi did not show any particular disgust towards leeks. Once, the nanny at home made dumplings with three fresh fillings and sent them to school. The little girl frowned after eating one. , reluctantly ate two more and then stopped eating, and pushed his remaining dumplings to him.

    At that time, Jiang Qi was in a state of long body, and basically he could not eat enough every day, what Zhiqi gave him to eat, and even felt that he could even eat a cow.

    Two boxes of dumplings are of course nothing to worry about.

    But Zhiqi was shocked.

    The girl looked at Jiang Qi, who looked like the 'big stomach king', in surprise, and blinked her big dark eyes. She thought about it and asked, "Do you like eating dumplings with this stuffing?"

    Maybe from that time, Zhiqi thought he liked Sanxian stuffing.

    And Jiang Qi did not explain, Quan Dang himself just liked it very much.

    Because it doesn't matter what he likes and what he doesn't like.

    It is important that someone remembers his so-called 'favorites' and thinks about it, and that is enough.

    And Zhiqi has been remembering for so many years.

    Sometimes Jiang Qi often thinks about a question, the girl is so kind to him, is he really worth it?

    But there may never be an answer to this kind of question, because 'like a person drinking water, one knows the warmth and warmth', maybe in the eyes of others, he is the helpless 'warm and cold' of Zhixi, but the small The girl likes it enough.

    I will always accompany her and try to make everything she treats worthwhile to me.

    The first New Year after the reunion, the two of them were eating dumplings and watching TV New Year's Eve in the hospital ward.

     

    Yes, all of this is real, not unreal.

    I will not experience the 'illusion' of the mirror and the moon after the clock strikes twelve o'clock again.

    "Jiang Qi, fireworks are going to be set off during the New Year." Zhiqi took out a few small firecrackers similar to 'two kicks' from his coat pocket like a trick, and winked at him: "Let's sneak down and let it go, while the nurse sister is not paying attention."

    When a girl is so 'bad', Jiang Qi has always been deviant and will naturally cooperate with him.

    So while the nurse on duty went to the bathroom, the two seized the opportunity to quickly go downstairs and slip into the garden downstairs of the hospital.

    In fact, because of the New Year's Day, the hospital is not really so strict. There are still many patients in the garden so late, and they are gathered in twos and threes to look up at the fireworks.

    Jiang Qi is a smoker and has a lighter on his body. When he took it out, he brought Zhiqi over and put the two kickers away.

    With the sound of crackling, the girl got into his arms and covered her ears.

    "Afraid of the sound?" Jiang Qi was dumbfounded. He covered Zhiqi's ears with a big hand, and approached her and asked her, "Then why are you still putting this on?"

    "What do you know?" Zhixi smiled, looking at him with bright eyes and said loudly: "Life must have a sense of ritual!"

    For example, to hang couplets, paste blessing characters, eat dumplings, watch the Spring Festival Gala, set off fireworks, and can't be alone... These are all legendary rituals, so Zhiqi has to help the teenagers to complete this. A 'sense of ritual'.

    The curvature of Jiang Qi's lips gradually subsided, and when the flickering fireworks in the sky died down, he asked her softly, "What else?"

    Zhixi: "Huh?"

    "New Year's ritual." Jiang Qi asked gently: "What else should there be?"

    "Well, set a goal for yourself." Zhixi looked up at the stars in the sky, and murmured, "Set a goal that you can achieve."

    Jiang Qi thought about it for a while, then 'um'.

    He promised Zhiqi that he would set the so-called New Year's goals, and he would definitely achieve them.

    Jiang Qi also wants to be like her, become a person who is full of ritual, passionate about this society, and even loves life.

    Because Zhixi has been tirelessly changing him, the 'world-weary' that haunted him a few months ago is now nothing.

    Jiang Qi felt that he at least had the direction to work hard.

    People are not afraid of getting lost, but they are afraid that they will not be able to find their way.

    Luckily, Zhiqi let him find it.
