Chapter 69 collective cold
The sound of Su Tong washing dishes came from the kitchen. Xia Lin had gone to the bathroom early to take a bath. Lin Peipei was cleaning the living room.
By the time the third fantasy novel, "Supreme heaven," had come to an end, she planned to finish it before the final exam and mail the final draft to Editor zhou.
A while ago, Editor zhou sent her a letter informing her that the filming of "Nine swords" had come to an end. He was invited to watch the filming process on the spot. The male and female protagonists were the hottest stars in Port city at the moment. They were very dedicated during filming, and they were also very excited about this work. They would cooperate with the film and television company to carry out a large amount of advertising after filming.
Lin Peipei came over after taking a bath, sat down at the desk next to him to wipe his hair, and reminded him, "Haitang, it's getting late. You should go take a bath and wash your clothes."
"Okay, I'll go after this paragraph." Li Haitang raised his head, rubbed his sore arm with his left hand, and continued to work.
Lin Peipei stayed with them for two months, and she couldn't bear to go home. She was very happy to live with them, work and rest, and study and life could help each other. In the past two months, her math and geography scores had also improved significantly with the help of Li Haitang. Every month, she was able to stabilize in the top ten of the class.
Xia Lin's liberal arts scores had always been good and stable in the top ten, and Su Tong was slightly worse. However, this semester's progress was very obvious. Every month, he could advance one or two places, and now he is within 20 places.
As for Li Haitang, who was a monster, it was needless to say that she was still at the top of the list, leaving second place far behind. Their plan to overtake her within a year was dead in the womb.
Half a month later, class 27 of senior high school welcomed the final exam of the last semester of senior high school.
The weather this year was especially strong. After the final exam, the sky was filled with snowflakes. Finally, the liberated students rushed to the playground and shouted to express their excitement and joy. Li Haitang and the others also played together on the campus and had a snowball fight.
The price of getting too excited was a collective cold, and the four of them went to the school infirmary to hang up the iv before they went home. Lying on the bed, Li Haitang pressed down his hot voice and said, "On the day of the winter break last year, I caught a cold too. I hung up the drip in the infirmary and went back to the dormitory. Xia Lin was the only one left in the room. As soon as she left, I was alone in bed, staring at the ceiling. It feels good to have three of you this year."
Lin Peipei, who had the most fun today, opened her eyes and looked at her. She was the only one in the four who knew Li Haitang's background and family situation. Sometimes, she was sad to see that she was strong and lonely. Her voice was hoarse and said, "Haitang, you will never be alone with us."
Li Haitang smiled, answered softly, closed his eyes and rested.
Xia Lin and Su Tong frowned a little. From their usual conversation, they knew more or less, but they had some guesses in their hearts. It was just that it was related to her personal affairs, and they could not take the initiative to ask.
After the four of them had finished the infusion, they returned home together, cooked a pot of light porridge, steamed some steamed buns, and ate something at night. They all lay down early to rest.
On the second day, everyone parted ways and went home separately. They agreed to leave for Yangcheng in three days.
Li Tao, who had a winter break two days earlier than her, had already arrived. During the summer vacation, he had earned enough tuition and living expenses. Now it was winter break, and the shops were busier. He came to help again and planned to earn some money for the new year.
Uncle liu, who had been working in the shop for several months, was extremely hardworking. Li Haitang had already raised his salary and arranged a place for him to stay in the warehouse he rented behind. He usually ate with Li Jianguo.
When Li Haitang went to the shop, master wu from the transportation company had just brought a large truck of goods. The li family, father and son, and Uncle liu were helping to unload the goods and move them into the warehouse. Sister liu was the only one in the shop who was beckoning guests. There were too many people ordering, so they were a little busy.
After putting down her luggage, she immediately went over to help. When she was free, she called lin peipei's house and asked the three of them to come over and help out in the shop.
The Lin Peipei brothers and sisters rushed over after lunch. It would be much easier if they joined them.
It was only about five o' clock in the afternoon that things in the shop were almost as busy. Li Haitang and Lin Peipei, who had not recovered from their colds, became a little more sick, and their voices were so hoarse that they could hardly speak.
The Lin family brothers immediately took Lin Peipei home to see a doctor to take his medicine. Li Haitang also went to see an old doctor nearby accompanied by Li Tao. He came back to drink some porridge, ate a steamed bun, drank a few cups of water and went to the attic to rest.
Around eight o' clock in the evening, the phone rang in the shop, and Li Tao, who was still burning in the shop reading the extracurricular books, went to answer the phone, "Hello, who are you looking for?"
"Hello, I'm looking for Li Haitang." The other man's voice was deep and magnetic, especially beautiful.
As soon as Li Tao heard this voice, he guessed the identity of the other party and said, "Are you brother jiang chu and heng jiang?"
"You are?" Jiang Chuheng did not recognize his voice for a moment.
It wasn't his fault that he didn't recognize it, but Li Tao's voice was now changing. It was as ugly as a duck's. He rubbed his throat and tried to reply in the best possible voice, "Brother jiang, I'm Li Tao, Li Haitang's brother. We met at the Shaoxian cinema more than a year ago."
"Oh, it's you. Are you on winter break? Are you here to help at your shop now?" Jiang Chuheng had returned to the capital by now, but he was on the phone in a shop outside. He couldn't stand the ambiguous look in his parents' eyes every time he answered the phone.
Li Tao lay on the counter, looking like he was about to have a good chat, "Yes, it's already winter break. I came yesterday. The shop was busy. I came to help."
"Oh, where's your sister? Can you ask her to answer the phone?" Jiang Chuheng once again shifted the topic to Li Haitang, who didn't speak much to anyone he didn't know.
Li Tao stood up straight and said, "Brother jiang, Sister hoi tong has a cold. It snowed heavily here yesterday. She went crazy playing in the snow and got caught in a cold. He had an iv drip at school yesterday, but when he came back to work today, his cold got worse. I just saw the doctor take my temperature, and I had a fever. I took the medicine and fell asleep."
Jiang Chuheng frowned slightly and warned, "Since you have a cold, don't call her. I'll call her tomorrow. Look at her. If you catch a cold, don't work. Let her rest in bed."
Li Tao always felt strange when he heard his tone, but he couldn't say anything. He had to answer, "Okay, I know. I'll tell her when she gets up tomorrow. The shop is very busy during the day and has a lot of phone calls. Call her tomorrow night."
"Okay, bye." Jiang chuheng answered and hung up the phone. He walked around the house and went to Xu Yueyang's house. He didn't come home until 10 o' clock.
After sleeping under a thick quilt for the whole night, Li Haitang woke up the next day feeling a little tired and no other discomfort. They didn't make their own breakfast in the morning. They ate a bowl of hot noodle soup in the breakfast shop next door to the farmer's market and bought some food. After cleaning up the shop, they were ready to start work.
Li Tao remembered Jiang Chuheng's advice last night. He pulled her aside and lowered his voice, "Sister hoi tong, brother shangjiang called last night. You fell asleep. I told him about your cold. He told me not to work today and to rest well. He called you tonight."
Li Haitang: ... "Why do you listen to him so much?"
Li Tao was stunned and found a suitable reason. "What he said makes sense. Aren't you going to Yangcheng tomorrow? It's a long ride there. How do you get there if you're not feeling well?"
Li Haitang rubbed his slightly dizzy head of the sun and agreed to it with rare obedience. Under Li Tao's gaze, he went upstairs to rest.
She lay in a warm bed with a thick pillow on her back. She picked up the notebook and ballpoint pen on the nightstand and began to work out the outline of the second part of "Nine swords." Alas, for the birthday wish of Ye Rui, a fanatic, she had to write about Rong Che, the number two man, and set a happy ending for him.
The thought of Ye Rui in her mind made her want to laugh for no reason. This semester, the other party came to her many times, and each time, she did not forget to ask: when can my male god, rong che, come back to life? The last time was a few days before winter break. It was Ye Rui's birthday. She smiled and ran over to tell her that her birthday wish was to resurrect Rong Che. She begged her to help her realize this birthday wish quickly.
Li Haitang almost collapsed! Lin Peipei was so happy that he almost overturned the desk.
Because of the cold weather, the business in the shop was still not strong in the morning, and Sister liu and the others were just busy. It was almost noon when Li Haitang went downstairs to prepare lunch for everyone. Seeing that the Lin family brothers were helping, he walked over and asked with concern, "Hao Ran, Haowen, how is Pepe today?"
"Sister hoi tong, she went to the doctor last night and got an iv drip. She's much better this morning, but we didn't ask her to come over to help. We let her rest at home." Lin Haoran answered her questions as she bagged the goods for the guests.
"Well, just be better. You guys call her back later and ask her. If she's still unwell, go see a doctor." They were supposed to go to Yangcheng together tomorrow. If everyone was uncomfortable, their elders would be worried.
Lin Haoran replied, "Okay, I'll remember."
Usually living outside the school, the four of them would often find time to cook themselves a delicious meal to reward themselves, so Li Haitang's skills were not unfamiliar. This afternoon, she made a steamed pork ribs. This dish was learned from xia lin, and it tasted like nine percent. In addition, they also made pickled fish, pickled by Sister liu, which tasted especially authentic and tasted better than those sold in the farmers'market. Finally, he cooked a dish of fried eggs with green peppers and a large pot of home-made tofu.
After all the customers in the shop left, Li Haitang called Li Tao over to help with the dishes. Everyone sat around and had a lively lunch.
