At the entrance of the hospital, Zhou Cong was leaning on his Ma 6, looking at me and smiling. There was also Chili Pepper, and the bandages on his hands had been taken off. Li Xiaowei stood beside the two of them, and each of the three had a cigarette.
They look like three ruffians.
I don’t know when Li Xiaowei got together with them. I shook my head and expressed my helplessness. In my heart, I really didn’t like Li Xiaowei following them. Oh, no, he was ‘hanging out’ with us.
Mr. Xu saw me smiling from the side and pointed at a few of them: "Do you know them?"
I nodded: "We know each other. They are all my classmates. You know I'm discharged from the hospital. Why don't you come and see me?"
As he said that, the three of them had already arrived in front of me. Zhou Cong walked in front: "Fifth brother, congratulations on being discharged from the hospital!"
I smiled: "Thank you for coming."
"How about we go have a meal together?" Li Xiaowei also said next to him.
I shook my head: "I guess that won't work, maybe tonight. My godfather is coming over, and I have to go to his house for dinner." I pointed at Mr. Xu.
These three guys were quite polite. They all looked at Mr. Xu and smiled: "Hello, uncle."
Mr. Xu nodded naturally: "How about you guys go there together."
Zhou Cong quickly waved his hand: "Uncle, we won't go there. We have a lot of time to eat together."
Mr. Xu nodded: "Yes."
We said goodbye to Zhou Cong and his group. We arrived at the parking lot of the hospital, where Mr. Xu's car was parked. I looked at the car and saw that it was not very good, just a means of transportation.
In the car, Mr. Xu gave me a meaningful look: "Lin Feng, don't you not like what your godfather says!"
"Daddy, what do you mean, am I listening?"
"You are a college student now, and you must be self-disciplined in everything. The society is very chaotic, and you must take care of yourself. You must know that one mistake will lead to eternal hatred."
I nodded, knowing that Mr. Xu had seen Zhou Cong and the others and had some feelings for him. He was afraid that I would learn bad things, but it was for my own good anyway.
Mr. Xu continued from the front: "It's good to know. Don't blame godfather for talking too much."
...
After a while, we arrived at Mr. Xu’s home. Mr. Xu’s home was not far from the school. It was also in a community. He lived on the third floor. It was quite nice, neither high nor low.
The three of us went upstairs. Mr. Xu knocked on the door. The doorbell rang a few times and the door was opened. The person who opened the door was a woman in her forties. When the woman saw the three of us, she immediately smiled and pointed at me: "
Lao Xu, is this the Lin Feng you are talking about?"
Mr. Xu quickly pulled me: "Come on, Lin Feng. Is this your godmother? Call me godmother!"
I smiled at her: "Hello, godmother, I am Lin Feng."
My godmother immediately grabbed my hand and said with great strength: "Yes, Lin Feng." Then he looked at Tang Guo: "Is this your girlfriend?"
Before I could explain in a hurry, Mr. Xu spoke from the side: "Stop talking nonsense?"
But the godmother smiled and said: "Why are you talking nonsense? You are so old, it's time to fall in love. Lin Feng, you have good taste."
Now, it was Tang Guo and I's turn to be embarrassed. I was okay, I was thick-skinned, but Tang Guo's face was already as red as an apple.
I quickly explained: "Godmother? This is my friend, not my girlfriend?"
Tang Guo also responded timidly: "Auntie, she and I are just ordinary friends."
Unexpectedly, the godmother smiled slyly again: "Friends can also develop into girlfriends."
Mr. Xu patted his godmother on the shoulder: "Old lady, stop talking. Why do you think our son hasn't entered the house yet? Why are you blocking him like this?"
The godmother patted herself on the forehead: "Look, I'm so happy. Ever since your godfather said he recognized a godson, I've been thinking about it at home every day, but does this damn old man want me to go to the hospital to see you? What are you doing?
Come, I'm so happy." After saying this, my godmother took my hand and entered her house.
Mr. Xu's home is not very big, with one bedroom and two living rooms, a very simple home.
My godmother was also really happy and held my hand. When I got to the table, she picked up the fruit plate on the table and said, "Come on, Lin Feng, eat some fruit, and girl..."
"What girl? She has a name, Tang Guo." Mr. Xu corrected from the side.
"Then Miss Tang Guo, eat some fruit too. It's better for girls to eat more fruit."
I looked at Tang Guo: "Would you like to eat something?"
Tang Guo was quite shy and waved her hand: "Auntie, you don't have to bother. I can take it if I want it."
The godmother exclaimed: "If you want to eat, you can take it yourself. Just feel like home here. Don't be embarrassed, Lao Xu, our house hasn't been so lively for a long time."
Mr. Xu nodded.
But the godmother continued: "If our child had not died, he would probably be this old." The godmother sighed slightly, a little emotional.
"Old woman, don't think so much. Let the past be bygones? Don't you think there is a good boy like Lin Feng? We should be satisfied."
I also said next to me: "Godmother? I will honor you well from now on. Let him go by the past, right?"
She wiped the corners of her eyes: "Yes. I should be satisfied." Then she sighed again: "No more. Come on, Lin Feng, this is the red envelope prepared by the godmother for you." With that, the godmother started from
He took out a big red envelope from his pocket and handed it to me.
"This..." I was stunned, couldn't I? The red envelopes were all ready.
I was stunned and looked up at Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu smiled heartily: "Lin Feng, just pick it up! This is a little thought from the two of us, and it can also be regarded as a little meeting gift for becoming a father and a mother. It is a happy celebration.
.”
I still don't know whether I should accept it or not.
My godmother pushed me again: "Lin Feng, don't make your godmother unhappy?"
Now I had to accept it even if I didn’t accept it. After hesitating for a moment, I accepted the red envelope from my godmother: “Thank you godmother!”
The godmother smiled again: "Why are you thanking me? Of course I will get a red envelope if I recognize my godmother."
When I got the red envelope, I weighed it a little and found that it was almost ten thousand yuan. But I still kept it in my pocket because my godmother was watching eagerly. If I refused again, he would probably be overthinking it.
I fully understand how she is feeling right now. Her biological son has died, and the pain is very unforgettable. Now she recognizes me as her godson just to remember her.
"Okay, it's time to eat. Lin Feng is probably starving too." Seeing everyone staring at each other, Mr. Xu quickly started to smooth things over.
The godmother also smiled: "Look, I'm so happy with my patronage, but the dishes are getting cold right there. Lin Feng, Tang Guo, come on, let's go eat."
After saying that, he took my hand again and entered the kitchen.
After the meal, I was so embarrassed. My godfather and godmother looked at me with smiles. But I also understood their feelings. I had a big meal with an open stomach.
I know that if I behave politely, they will probably be unhappy.
Sure enough, my godmother looked happy when she saw my easygoing look: "Do you still want to eat? Why don't you get a bowl?"
Ah! I suddenly felt like vomiting, knowing that this was the fifth bowl of rice I had eaten.
I patted my belly: "I really want to eat, but look at my belly. It's almost too full to walk."
As soon as he finished speaking, he made them burst into laughter.
