only care about this life

Chapter 12

Comrade Xie Jiuan sucked soymilk in his mouth, held the fried dough stick in one hand, and held his mobile phone in the other. He did not know how many times he dialed the number he got last night, but the monotonous "You The phone number you dialed is off."

Comrade Xie Jiu'an, who was squatting next to the breakfast car, turned his head and asked Aunt Zhang, "Aunt Zhang, didn't you say that Gu Jinsheng would pass by here for breakfast today? Why are you all sold out, and no one else has come yet!"

In less than one morning, Comrade Xie Jiu'an became acquainted with Aunt Zhang by virtue of his bright smile and familiarity. Of course, the most important thing was that Master Jiu took the initiative to reveal his identity—Gu Jinsheng's good friend.Although Master Jiu's extremely unscrupulous image made Aunt Zhang unable to connect him with the good-tempered and kind-hearted Xiao Gu, but seeing that Xie Jiu'an took the initiative to come over to help her when she was busiest, she let go of her heart.

"It's a little strange, Xiao Gu didn't come today or yesterday, Xiao Jiu, don't you have his phone number?" Aunt Zhang asked, she knew that the name of this guy who smiled brightly and swept away his indecency was Xie Jiu'an After that, he resolutely gave Master Jiu a name that was easy to pronounce - Xiao Jiu.

Xie Jiu'an put the phone back into his pocket in frustration, "Yes, I kept calling him just now, but he always turned off the phone." While talking, he rubbed his foot on the ground—Master Jiu's image was very lonely at the moment.

"Oh, you child, there must be something urgent, why are you waiting so helplessly for Xiao Gu to arrive in the morning? If there is something to do, his work unit will find him, and it's not far from here." Aunt Zhang looked at Xie Jiu'an with her head downcast suggested.

The speaker is not interested in the listener, what is meant by waiting eagerly for two mornings, Xie Jiu'an immediately blinked her beautiful peach blossom eyes, her small eyes flew wildly, and stammered, "Where is it, Aunt Zhang, Don't talk nonsense, what are you waiting for, nothing! Absolutely nothing!" Comrade Xie Jiu'an said very firmly.

He just stumbled upon Gu Jinsheng's pale expression over and over again after he happened to see Gu Jinsheng go to the police to deal with domestic violence last night and deal with such bloody things as his lover's head.As a good friend of Gu Jinsheng, Comrade Xie Jiu'an positioned himself in such a way that he has the responsibility and obligation to care about Comrade Gu Jinsheng who has just lost his love.

Although this friend didn't turn on his phone all morning and didn't answer his phone.It's not that Xie Jiu'an never thought of going to the police station, but it seems that he and Gu Jinsheng are not familiar with that.

After thinking about it, Comrade Xie Jiuan stuffed the last mouthful of fried dough sticks into his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it, drank the last big mouthful of soy milk, wiped his mouth, and went home.

Hmph, there are only three things to do, and I will never wait for the little police again!After waiting for two mornings, Comrade Xie Jiu'an, who had been calling until the battery ran out, thought indignantly that maybe he was not considered a friend at all.

Gu Jinsheng returned home exhausted, and the slippers on the shoe cabinet, one black and one gray, were of the same color and style, neatly arranged.Picking up the gray pair, Gu Jinsheng looked at the black pair on the shoe cabinet, and suddenly thought with emotion that if no one took them away or replaced them, these two pairs of slippers would have been placed there in such a harmonious way that they could be kept in place forever. has remained unchanged.

Not only this pair of slippers, but everything in this house was arranged by him and Zhou Ziqian bit by bit. The alarm clock he bought himself went on for a while and stopped for a while. Zhou Ziqian refused to change it no matter what; the sofa is Gu Jinsheng's favorite , has no other features, but it is soft and can be nestled in when watching TV; the tablecloth on the dining table is what the two of them got when they went to the supermarket to buy kitchen utensils...Zhou Ziqian also has a house on the other side of the city. The decoration is exquisite and beautiful, and all the furniture and appliances are luxurious and polished, just like a model house that can be advertised on posters.So Zhou Ziqian would live here most of the time if he really couldn't come back. In his words, it feels like home here.

And this feeling is what Gu Jinsheng has been looking for, the feeling of home.

Gu Jinsheng nestled on the sofa, he thought that life would go on in such a step-by-step manner, and that Zhou Ziqian could be busy with his career in front of the policeman of the Anran Police Station, and he didn't want to be rich and powerful, but he just wanted to live in such a peaceful and comfortable way So, the two of them will be together until he retires, when Zhou Ziqian can no longer take care of the business.Relying on the pension and the pension funds that I carefully planned and saved to live until the day when the two of them are gray-haired, they have no children, but they are supported all the way, just like the old saying that Gu Jinsheng takes so seriously-young couples come to accompany each other.

The same goes for the two men, who always come as companions.

Unexpectedly, life always hits you unexpectedly when you live the most peaceful and natural life, when you think you will live like this for the rest of your life.

Gu Jinsheng forgot that some things are easy to change quietly, such as people's hearts.

Taking out the mobile phone from his pocket, Gu Jinsheng waited unsurprisingly for the mobile phone to receive the text message reminding him of the incoming call. The first dozens of text messages were all from Zhou Ziqian, with a few text messages mixed in.Gu Jinsheng hesitated for a while, and deleted the text message without opening it.

Deleting and deleting, Gu Jinsheng saw a strange number, which was called an hour ago, and this strange number also made several calls.He thought about it for a while, wondering in his heart, could it be that Zhou Ziqian changed his mobile phone number to call him?still……

Comrade Gu Jinsheng, who was full of doubts, dialed this number, and then was taken aback by the excited and joyful voice on the phone—"Wow! Ah Sheng, you are finally willing to turn on the phone!"

Gu Jinsheng felt that this voice was very familiar, but he couldn't think of a familiar face to connect with this voice.He was sure he didn't recognize the number.

"You are--"

A cheerful voice came straight to the ear, "Xie Jiu'an! Have you forgotten!"

Gu Jinsheng had a black line on his face. Really, there was this guy wherever he went recently, but the vigilance brought about by occupational diseases immediately made Comrade Gu Jinsheng ask, "Ah? Why do you have my phone number?"

Comrade Xie Jiu'an, who waited all morning and made many phone calls without getting a response, was very excited because Gu Jinsheng took the initiative to call. What? Last night, I asked you to have a late-night snack, but you said you didn’t have time to contact me when you were free, and then you gave me this phone number!”

Gu Jinsheng scratched his head, why didn't he remember that there was such a thing, "I, like, why don't I think so?"

The righteous Comrade Xie Jiuan said, "Yes! Why did you forget it! Oh, the scene last night was too chaotic, you probably forgot it, little policeman." Gu Jinsheng had to start doubting his own memory.

Of course, Gu Jinsheng would not know that Xie Jiuan already knew that he was cheated on and captured his lover on the spot. He just remembered that he was really terrible last night. Maybe, he really forgot, otherwise why would this person will know their phone number.

Reluctantly accepting this reason, Gu Jinsheng asked again, "Then what's the urgent matter for you to call me? I see you called a lot of phone numbers?"

Of course, it must not be said that it is because I witnessed your lovelorn last night, so I feel that as a friend, I have an obligation to care for you. Xie Jiuan smiled and said, "Please have breakfast! I remember you bought me breakfast once, please let me see it." A concert." Of course, Xie Jiuan thought silently, and even snatched one of my horse ears.

Xie Jiu'an's tone of enthusiastically asking him to have breakfast made Gu Jinsheng suddenly feel embarrassed. He could tell people that he bought him breakfast because he thought Xie Jiu'an looked like a homeless man who would even snatch children's breakfast. The second time was purely because I thought he was a scalper by mistake, and by the way, I had a ticket that was about to be wasted, so I simply used this ticket as a favor, which was an apology to Xie Jiuan.

"Uh, it's really nothing, it's just a matter of raising your hands." Comrade Gu Jinsheng said very frankly, it was really just a matter of raising your hands.

"Do you think the breakfast is too much or something? Hey, if it wasn't for Lord Jiu, I would be down, otherwise, what kind of big meal can't be afforded—" Xie Jiu'an chattered about the past, if it wasn't, if it wasn't, it was like this.

Gu Jinsheng smiled when he thought of how his little effort made others remember him, "Okay, but today is not enough, how about tomorrow?"

Hearing that Gu Jinsheng promised himself suddenly, Comrade Xie Jiu'an was embarrassed to say nothing, thinking that he really couldn't afford a breakfast, but—Master Jiu was crying, he really had no money!

After being pestered by Xie Jiu'an's phone call for some time, Gu Jinsheng felt that the sullenness in his heart had dissipated a bit, he took a shower and changed clothes quickly, and went out to take a car to his grandma's house in the suburbs.Of course he saw Zhou Ziqian's car parked in an open space in the community, but since Zhou Ziqian didn't make a sound, he just wanted to pretend he didn't see it.

From the urban area to the suburbs, it takes a bus transfer. Whether it is far or near, it will take more than an hour. By the time Gu Jinsheng arrived home, it was already close to noon.

The Gu family's old house is a wooden structure, but it has been repaired and remodeled. It is already half brick and half wood. From the back door, it is a wooden threshold and door panel, but from the front, it is already a small green brick house.It is two stories high, with green ivy crawling on half of the wall, and bougainvilleas that can be seen everywhere in Changzhou City, and the red and green complement each other on the other half of the wall. It seems that this wall locks all the spring.

Granny Lin, who was sitting at the door choosing vegetables, saw Gu Jinsheng and called into the room, "Oh, grandma of the Gu family, your Asheng is back." Then, she quickly took out a stool from the room and asked Gu Jinsheng to sit down.As soon as he entered the familiar environment where he grew up and lived, Gu Jinsheng immediately let go of the depression in his heart, and happily shouted into the hall, "Grandma, I'm back!"

Grandma Gu used to be a Chinese teacher in a nearby elementary school. She had a good temper and smiled at everyone, but now she is getting old and suffering from mild Alzheimer's disease. There is nothing else, but her memory of Gu Jinsheng has always been confused—— —For example, Grandma Gu came down from the stairs, saw Gu Jinsheng, and asked loudly with a smile, "Oh, Mao Mao is back! How is it, summer vacation is coming soon, isn't it? Are you tired in the police academy? Hurry up, grandma!" Go make a bowl of herbal tea!"

Gu Jinsheng thought to himself, when he came back last time, his grandma thought he was in high school and kept asking him if his studies were hard, but this time when he came back, he was going to college right away.However, no matter how it changes, grandma always remembers his nickname. Before getting sick, Gu Jinsheng had raised opinions on the nickname Maomao, who was called Maomao since he was a child. It doesn't look like it.The grandmother who loved Gu Jinsheng very much had no choice but to change her words.However, with this disease, Gu Jinsheng no longer begged his grandma not to call him by his nickname.This nickname was ridiculed by Zhou Ziqian several times.

Granny Lin smiled while holding the selected dishes, "Ah Sheng, your grandma, this time I treat you as a college student again!"

Gu Jinsheng hurriedly supported his grandma, "Grandma doesn't need it, grandma will help me. What is grandma doing upstairs?" Grandma Gu smiled with wrinkles all over her face, but what has not changed is the love that Gu Jinsheng is most familiar with. It's not your kid's book, you are not here, grandma will help you tidy up all the old books, you, I used to love martial arts novels the most, grandma won't let you read them, so you hide them everywhere." After saying that, he stretched out his hand and touched Gu The head of this life, "Our Mao Mao's hair has grown again, it has to be cut, otherwise, you will be unhappy if you have a pointed head!"

Gu Jinsheng squatted aside, letting his grandma's calloused hands touch his head. Gu Jinsheng's hair and head were very distinctive, and anyone who looked at him wanted to touch it, but even Zhou Ziqian It also took a long time for Gu Jinsheng to accept it.Only grandma is different, being touched by grandma's hand, Gu Jinsheng only feels that he is still the carefree child when he was a child, although he has no parents by his side.

When Gu Jinsheng's parents divorced, he was already five years old, but the relationship between his parents was not very good before. When they divorced, both parents wanted to quarrel with each other, but they didn't want him.In the end, when he was young, Gu Jinsheng was still sentenced to his mother, but his mother threw him at the door of his father's house and refused to take him no matter what.But Dad's family had a new hostess long ago, and he didn't want to accept him even more. In the end, Gu Jinsheng's grandmother scolded her son severely, and took Gu Jinsheng, who was at a loss at that time, back to his hometown in the suburbs.

Gu Jinsheng still remembers that at that time, his grandfather died long ago, and his grandmother was left alone at home. He had to go to the vegetable market with his grandmother early in the morning to buy vegetables. The grandmother held a vegetable basket in one hand and Gu Jinsheng in the other, asking him What do you want to eat today.After buying good food and eating breakfast, Gu Jinsheng went to school with his grandma, and when grandma went to school, Gu Jinsheng was put in the school's preschool class.

Gu Jinsheng was dragged up just like that.

Gu Jinsheng once wanted to take his grandma to live in the urban area, but at that time, he didn't have the conditions, and his grandma didn't want to leave the house in his hometown. When he was able, his grandma fell ill and got Alzheimer's disease. Instead, he was even more childish than a child. Gu Jinsheng and Zhou Ziqian discussed it, and had to ask a nearby villager to help take care of him.
