Chapter 2041 Mr. Zhao’s request
Xiao's mother complained that Xiao Xiao went to the hospital to visit patients, how could he not bring flowers?
Seeing flowers makes patients feel better.
……
When Xiao Xiao returned to the ward again, Mr. Zhao came back.
The old man on the hospital bed smiled and narrowed his eyes when he saw Xiao Xiao walking in.
"I knew it was you when I saw this snack box."
"Have you been here for a while?"
"Unfortunately, the old man was outside basking in the sun."
"Just in time to change the water."
Xiao Xiao smiled and put the vase on the table.
"This flower is beautiful."
Mr. Zhao laughed.
Although the color was simple and elegant, it still brightened his eyes, which had seen too many monotonous colors in the ward.
Beautiful things always make people feel happy.
"As long as you like it."
Xiao Xiao arranged the flower branches.
"Like it."
Mr. Zhao nodded, "Next time I go to your teahouse, I want to thank your mother in person for choosing this bouquet of flowers."
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Xiao's Teahouse welcomes you to visit us again."
Mr. Zhao was stunned.
Then he laughed out loud.
"Haha~"
"Okay."
"When I am discharged from the hospital, I will definitely go to your teahouse to make trouble."
"Little friend Xiao Xiao, are you going to have a holiday soon?"
The old man is sitting on the hospital bed.
Xiao Xiao helped the old man raise the head of the bed.
"Thank you."
The old man leaned back on the bed.
The eyebrows are relaxed.
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao sat back on the chair next to the hospital bed, "It's the National Day holiday soon."
"Do you have any plans for the long vacation?"
The old man's question made Xiao Xiao feel aware of it.
He shook his head.
"No special arrangements."
"What's the matter with Mr. Zhao?"
Mr. Zhao was not surprised by Xiao Xiao's keenness.
He narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"Yeah."
"I have something to ask Xiao Xiao for help."
"What happened?"
Xiao Xiao asked directly.
"Haha."
Xiao Xiao's straightforwardness made the old man's expression become clearer.
"It's not a big deal."
"I just want to ask you to make an appointment for me."
"Visit an old friend."
……
Keep an appointment?
Visiting an old friend?
Xiao Xiao was a little confused.
"Why don't you call the other party and explain your situation?"
Speaking of keeping appointments...
Naturally, I am the best.
Isn't it?
……
"No way to call."
Xiao Xiao was stunned.
No way to make a phone call?
Was it an agreement made accidentally, and the old man didn't have the other party's contact information at all?
Or does the other party not have a mobile phone or telephone number?
……
"After all, monsters don't have human contact tools."
The old man laughed.
Xiao Xiao suddenly realized.
Did it turn out to be a date with a monster?
……
"It's fortunate that Huzi brought you here."
The old man was a little emotional.
"I was so confused before that I almost forgot about this agreement."
The old man patted his head gently and said, "As I am getting older, my memory is no longer good."
"You had an accident."
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows are slightly curved.
"Don't you just remember it now?"
"Your old memory is still very good."
"Haha~"
The old man smiled happily.
"Yeah."
"I feel that I am in good condition."
"The doctors said I am recovering well."
The old man was a little proud, "He said I might be discharged from the hospital earlier than expected."
The smile in Xiao Xiao's eyes deepened, "That's really great."
"Congratulations, Mr. Zhao."
"Thank you."
The old man was a little emotional.
"Please, please always come to visit me, an old man."
Someone came to visit me when I was in the hospital... Even though I said I didn't care, I still advised them not to come -
After all, they are not related to me...
He was embarrassed to always have people come to visit him in the hospital. But how could he not be happy every time he saw little friend Xiao Xiao walking in?
Moreover
Before little friend Xiao Xiao came, the doctors and nurses in the hospital almost regarded him as a lonely old man.
He is not.
Even if he doesn't want to contact his family, he is not a lonely old man.
He was accompanied.
It's just that Hu Zi and the others can't see it.
……
It's okay to be misunderstood.
However, he doesn't like others looking at him with sympathetic eyes.
He knew what they were thinking.
An old man who is hospitalized alone.
How pitiful.
But that's not the case at all.
There is nothing about him that warrants sympathy.
He's fine.
It was difficult for him to explain this to them.
Let alone make them understand.
They would just think he was trying to be tough.
The arrival of little friend Xiao Xiao made these glances disappear.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, he felt more comfortable living in this hospital.
Otherwise, he would have been hospitalized for a long time this time.
Being looked at like that all the time was too much of a psychological burden on him.
Maybe he was thinking of being discharged from the hospital early.
……
"Now the old man wants to trouble you to run errands."
The old man felt that he was being a bit shameless, "I'm so sorry."
……
"Mr. Zhao is so polite."
Xiao Xiao smiled, "You are a guest of our Xiao's Teahouse."
"It's just running errands, don't worry about it."
Mr. Zhao was a little amused by Xiao Xiao's words.
"Then the old man must protect his identity as a guest."
"I can ask little friend Xiao Xiao to help me run errands."
"I will be a loyal customer of your teahouse from now on."
The old man smiled happily.
"When the day comes when the old man can no longer walk, Huzi and I will come to your teahouse every day to report and drink tea."
……
"Okay."
The corners of Xiao Xiao's lips raised, "Xiao's Teahouse welcomes Mr. Zhao."
"You."
The old man smiled and shook his head, "It is indeed the young owner of the teahouse."
Everything I do is thinking about the teahouse.
……
"Let me tell you about my friend."
The old man looked out the window.
The window is half open.
Occasionally a slight breeze fluttered the curtains.
The sunlight coming in is a little more lively.
Flashing.
The old man narrowed his eyes slightly and looked calm.
Gradually, a bit of trance appeared in his eyes.
……
It was October of that year.
He remembered it clearly.
It's the third day of the long holiday.
He rented a boat and went to sea alone.
No.
It's not accurate to say one person.
And Hu Zi.
……
He's in the captain's cabin.
Huzi was lying in the middle of the deck.
Basking in the sun lazily.
The colorful patterns shine in the bright sunshine.
Even the snow-white hair that shines like pearls looks a little dim under the contrast of the gorgeous colors.
……
He has no destination.
Just sail to places where there are few people.
It's the long holiday period, so everywhere is crowded.
He doesn't like crowds.
You won't be able to enjoy the best view.
I don't like the hustle and bustle either.
Probably because he has been to vast and sparsely populated places such as deserts, grasslands, and rainforests.
He loved the vastness and openness of those places.
He could hear the wind stirring up gravel.
The sound of passing through the rocks...
He likes large tracts of weeds to be blown in one direction by the wind.
The deft little deer would tilt its head and look at him curiously.
He loved the chirping of birds in his ears.
There were also sounds of beasts coming from far and near.
There is the texture of thick soil under your feet.
