Chapter 71 Aunt
"What tree!"
Zhu Yu gently pushed the door open and came in, holding a set of clothes in her hand.
She combed her hair again and put it behind her head. The gray hair on her temples made her look a little haggard.
She was wearing a light-colored floral dress, looking very simple.
"Aunt." He Shu quickly sat up from the bed.
Zhu Yu smiled and said gently, "Are you tired? Your uncle has been tormenting you a lot these days. If you are tired, just lie down for a while. This is your own home, don't be restrained."
He Shu hummed, and the aunt in front of him seemed like a different person compared to when she pounced on him downstairs before.
Zhu Yu didn't let him stand up. She walked to the bed and sat beside him, putting her clothes on the bed.
"Look at the clothes your uncle found for you. None of them fit you. Come, try this one. It's new. Do you like it?"
He Shu looked down and saw that it was still a branded sports short-sleeved shirt: "Thank you, aunt."
Zhu Yu smiled, and seeing that He Shu was slow to move, she picked up his clothes and was about to help him put them on.
"Aunt, I can do it myself." He Shu was still waiting for her to go out, but his aunt just watched him.
He turned his back, took off his loose vest, and put on a short-sleeved shirt, but he couldn't change his pants.
Just when I turned around and wanted to ask my aunt to go out, I saw that she was already in tears.
"Aunt, what's wrong with you?" He Shu was a little panicked.
Zhu Yu shook her head and covered her mouth. After a while, she took a breath and calmed down: "Aunt is fine, it's just that you turned around to change clothes just now, and you look so much like your brother Guangxing."
"He was as tall as you before he left home. When he was little, he always clung to me. When he got older, he became shy and I had to carry him on my back every time I changed clothes."
Zhu Yu wiped her face, but her tears could not be wiped away. She stood up and forced a smile.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoshu, your aunt scared you."
He Shu stood there holding the clothes he had changed out of, not knowing how to comfort her.
"Change your clothes. Your aunt is out. Come downstairs later and we'll eat."
After saying that, Zhu Yu walked out of the room and closed the door.
He Shu touched his clothes, sat down on the bed and sighed ...
After changing clothes, I went downstairs to a small dining room connected to the kitchen. My grandfather, uncle and others were already seated , and the food was on the table.
My aunt brought another plate of shrimps and asked He Shu to sit down and eat with a smile.
There were a total of six dishes on the table, all made by my aunt. She kept picking up dishes for He Shu and peeling shrimps. She didn't eat much herself, but just stared at He Shu and told him to eat.
Grandpa was in a good mood. He asked my uncle to bring half a bottle of wine and poured a sip from the wine glass.
"The doctor told me not to drink too much. I'm glad Xiaoshu is back today. Boss, you should drink something too."
Upon hearing this, Qi Zhijun took another cup and poured only a little for himself.
"Xiaoshu, don't drink anymore. You have to go to school tomorrow."
Seeing that Qi Zhijun wanted to pour juice for He Shu, his aunt stopped him: "Xiao Shu, auntie will pour you some juice."
"Don't bother, auntie. I don't want to drink."
His aunt didn't listen to him at all and took out a can of drink from the refrigerator and gave it to He Shu.
The meal was very warm, but his aunt kept looking at him, and it seemed that she was not looking at him.
After dinner, uncle Qi Zhijun returned He Shu’s cell phone to him.
He Shu wanted to turn on his phone but found it was out of battery. His aunt, who was always keeping an eye on him, immediately helped him find a charging cable.
After the phone was turned on, a series of messages popped up.
He Shu flipped through the messages one by one. Most of them were from Xia Miao, his godfather, and Brother Dong. They mainly asked him how his new school was going and whether he was adapting well.
He Shuxian called his godfather Zhao Qishui. It was already 7 o'clock in the evening and the phone rang several times before his godfather answered.
"Hey, Xiaoshu? Haha, is the military training over?"
He Shu sent a message to his godfather before handing in his phone, so Zhao Qishui was not worried about not being able to contact him for twenty days.
"Well, I'll be back to school tomorrow."
"Okay, is military training fun?"
He Shu glanced at his uncle who was pretending to flip through a newspaper and said, "Yeah, it was fun. I saw the tanks and touched the guns."
He couldn't tell his godfather that he was tortured so hard for twenty days that he had to go to the hospital.
"You even touched a gun? Haha, university is different. Xiaoshu, do you need anything over there? I just came back from Sishui and brought a lot of bacon with me. Can I mail some to you?"
"Godfather, did you go to Sishui?"
"Well, there's a kid over there who looks a lot like Zhao Yan..."
When He Shu heard this, he knew that his godfather was disappointed again. It looked similar, but it wasn't.
"Godfather..."
"Haha, it's okay. Godfather is used to it. I'm just taking it as a trip. Xiaoshu, when you return to school, you must study hard and take the initiative to make more friends... If someone bullies you, call me and I'll fly over right away..."
Zhao Qishui explained everything in detail, and He Shu listened carefully, nodding from time to time.
He Shu didn't tell his godfather about what happened at his grandfather's house until he finished the call.
After the call, He Shu sent another message to Xia Miao: "Just finished military training."
Xia Miao had just returned to the dormitory. She went out to have dinner with the girl in the same dormitory. She also received a love letter, which made Xia Miao very troubled.
She had just started her college life when she encountered this kind of thing, and the love letter was not given by the person she liked.
Xia Miao didn't want to answer the letter at first, but her roommate Sun Yuanyuan was with her at the time and helped her answer the letter from the junior student.
When they returned to the dormitory, they couldn't wait to open it and wanted to see what was written inside.
Xia Miao ignored him and let him write whatever he wanted. She took out her cell phone and suddenly saw that "A Tree" had sent her a message.
Xia Miao quickly replied: "Are you tired from the military training?"
He Shu also quickly replied; "Not bad."
After thinking about it, Xia Miao simply called and He Shu answered the phone quickly.
"Are you in school now?"
"No, I'm outside and will be back to school tomorrow."
"Have you eaten yet?" Xia Miao's heart was beating fast as she held the phone, and her voice became gentler when she spoke to He Shu.
Sun Yuanyuan on the side hurriedly signaled the other two sisters to look at Xia Miao, and they all pricked up their ears curiously to eavesdrop.
"I've eaten." He Shu paused: "How is your school?"
When Xia Miao heard him asking about the school, she immediately found a topic and began to introduce the school. Dadu College has the largest library in the country, which makes He Shu very envious.
The two of them only talked about school matters for more than half an hour, and finally made an appointment to meet on a day when they had no classes.
Xia Miao then hung up the phone reluctantly.
"Miao Miao, is this your boyfriend?"
Xia Miao was embarrassed to say that He Shu was her boyfriend. After all, she didn't know whether He Shu was willing or not.
But when Xia Miao saw that Sun Yuanyuan was still holding the love letter given by her senior, she nodded.
"Yes, my boyfriend is studying at Huaqing University. So don't help me with these things in the future. He will be unhappy if he finds out."
