Rebirth: Don’t be a coward and be a mother’s baby

Chapter 243 The past of Zuo Liang and Zhou Chunyan (first update!)

The boss' wife's cold didn't go away but became worse and worse. The doctor said that after Zhou Chunyan's surgery, it was best to stay in bed and rest for at least two months.

The two people who originally planned to work until the New Year's Day were forced to stop working.

Grandma Dong thought that the passing of the year was unlucky. Dong Ming had an accident in the middle of the year, and Zhou Chunyan had an accident again at the end of the year. On the first day of the new year, the family had to go to the temple to worship.

In the ward.

Zhou Chunyan, who has been busy all year round, suddenly stopped and lay on the hospital bed feeling weak. This week, Xie Jianjia dragged Ye Yong and tried various ways to make her happy, but the child had to go to school. Under her urging, Xie Jianjia returned to normal. He goes to class and goes to the hospital to stay with her after school every day.

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door, and Zuo Liang came in.

He came many times in a week, and every time Xie Jianjia was present, he couldn't say much. Every time he stayed for less than half an hour, he was secretly poked and kicked out by the little girl.

Today he finally bribed the nurse and got the news that Xie Jianjia had gone to class, so he could take the opportunity to come to the door.

"swallow."

When Zhou Chunyan saw it was Zuo Liang, there was a hint of embarrassment on her face. There were people there the previous few times, so the two of them chatted normally. However, the nurse just left, and the Dong family members had their own business and didn't come today.

There were only two people in the room.

"Big Brother Left..."

This call of "Brother Zuo" made her feel guilty. Zuo Liang was a month younger than her.

Zuo Liang knew that she was cautious and didn't pay much attention to the title. He put the fruit in his hand on the bedside table and sat on the bedside, very close to Zhou Chunyan.

Without waiting for Zhou Chunyan to speak, he opened the zipper of his cotton-padded jacket and took out a steaming thing in a white plastic bag from the inner pocket.

"I know you like to eat roasted sweet potatoes the most in winter. There was one in front of the hospital when I came here, so I brought one to you. It's still warm."

As he spoke, he opened the sweet potatoes wrapped in plastic bags in front of Zhou Chunyan, and the alluring aroma hit his face.

Zhou Chunyan wanted to refuse, but found that she couldn't resist the smell of sweet potatoes at all. She stayed in the hospital for a week. Because of the surgery, she ate relatively light except for the bone soup that occasionally skimmed off the oil.

"Can I eat roasted sweet potatoes?" Zhou Chunyan remembered that the doctor said that many things should be avoided.

Zuo Liang picked up the cleaned spoon that was placed in the lunch box. "I asked the doctor and he said that you can eat in moderation. Don't eat too much and nothing will happen."

After hearing that the doctor agreed, Zhou Chunyan lost her scruples, took the spoon and sweet potato from Zuo Liang's hand, scooped up a spoonful and put it into her mouth.

Seeing that she was eating happily, Zuo Liang also had a smile on his face.

"After all these years, you still like to eat roasted sweet potatoes, but you just don't know if the ones roasted in this oven have the same taste as the ones roasted on the stove back home."

Zhou Chunyan paused while scooping sweet potatoes, and she did not reply.

Zuo Liang continued: "Swallow, do you remember? In addition to sweet potatoes, you also like to eat the winter dates that fell from the jujube tree at the back door of my house. I remember that I knocked down all the jujubes with a pole, and the small ones had not yet grown up. I couldn't muster any energy, so I stole my dad's ladder and climbed up into the jujube tree. When he found out, he had a meal of fried meat with tree sticks. The pain was so painful that I couldn't walk steadily for a month..."

Zhou Chunyan's thoughts followed the man's gentle narration back to when she was still in high school more than ten years ago.

Zuo Liang is a typical skinny monkey, who relies on her good study skills to have a thick skin and is very popular with the teacher. He was sitting in the back seat of her at the time and would poke her back with the cap of his pen when she had nothing to do. She has a quiet and cowardly temperament and can only study with her head down. Know nothing.

It was Zuo Liang who found her alone and forced her into a group of classmates so that his "good sister" could take her to eat and study with her.

Later, the two became more and more familiar with each other. The day before the winter vacation, he took a group of classmates to his house to play. After everyone dispersed, he took her alone to the trees in the backyard to beat jujubes. Those winter jujubes were round, full, and large in size. All went into her stomach. Zuo Liang: "And in the summer of my sophomore year in high school, I skipped class to catch loaches. I originally wanted to show off my cooking skills by making a loach dinner and bring it to school to devour all my classmates. Unexpectedly, the loaches were not cooked well, so everyone gave them away. When we arrived at the health center, even the police were alerted, but you are smart and you didn’t eat. You are the only girls in the class who haven’t eaten loach and are fine..."

Zuo Liang at that time came to mind. He smiled wildly, leaned in front of her table and bragged to a few boys, saying that his skill in catching loaches and his cooking skills were the only ones in the world. The boys then discussed how to compete. Compare.

The young man crossed his arms and lightly kicked her chair, asking her if she wanted to try his craftsmanship.

Before she had time to answer, the teacher entered the classroom and asked several people to sit down and attend class properly.

Towards evening, he came back with an iron lunch box, which was full of loaches. The boys in the class took a bite of it, and she was a little disgusted that she would not taste the saliva of those boys.

It seems that because of sending all the boys in the class to the clinic, he was beaten by his father and did not come to class for a week.

Zuo Liang looked at Zhou Chunyan with gentle eyes.

"The first day of the senior year of high school is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I ask you to come out and look at the moon at night..."

When she mentioned looking at the moon in her senior year of high school, Zhou Chunyan's thoughts were withdrawn from her memories. She raised her eyes and inadvertently met Zuo Liang's focused and serious gaze. She was burned and turned her head away.

"What happened in the past is in the past, and there is no need to mention it again."

Zuo Liang felt her resistance and nodded without any force.

"Okay, I won't talk."

The ward was quiet for a moment. Zhou Chunyan looked down at the roasted sweet potato that she had eaten twice, and lost the desire to continue eating. She sighed and put it on the bedside table.

"Yanzi, you don't need to pay attention to what I say. Just treat it as an old classmate who is here to reminisce about the past..."

Zhou Chunyan shook her head, "I'm one month older than you. Am I not older than you?"

Zuo Liang quickly explained: "No, no, no, I said the wrong thing, you -"

Zhou Chunyan patted his arm through the thick down jacket and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous. We are just chatting normally."

After saying that, he leaned back and leaned on the pillow.

"Both of us are turning thirty-four this year. We will celebrate the thirty-fifth of the new year, right?"

Zuo Liang nodded.

Zhou Chunyan's tone was full of sighs: "The last time we met, we were in high school. Time flies so fast."

Zuo Liang put his hands on his knees and listened quietly to Zhou Chunyan's words.

"I'm sorry that I wasn't able to go to the promised university with you. I only found out not long ago that I was admitted to the university but was tampered with." She looked apologetic.

Hearing Zhou Chunyan personally say that she did not go to college due to human reasons, even though Zuo Liang already knew it, her heart was still pricked. He had found someone to investigate a few months ago and knew all the suffering Zhou Chunyan had suffered over the years.

When he spoke again, his voice was sour.

"How can I blame you? I didn't go to the school we agreed on..."
