Take It Easy

Late completion.

Tang Yuanzhou came back a little later because he was going to buy dinner.

In the ward, Yang Ling was talking to Zhou Yi.

"Xiao Jiu, you've become like this, and you still refuse to tell the truth?" Yang Ling frowned and looked at Zhou Yi and said, "You have your reasons, and we don't want to force you, but I can't let it go if you don't ask. Just yesterday, Tang Yuanzhou told me that the main reason why he got so angry was because he thought you were going to leave, and he couldn't bear you. If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask him."

Zhou Yi, "I believe..."

"If you believe me, tell us the truth so we can rest assured." Yang Ling asked eagerly, "What have you been doing these past few years?"

Zhou Yi said, "Be a wildlife ranger."

The only person she had to hide from was Mu Qinglin, now that she knew it, there was no need to continue to hide it.

Yang Ling was so surprised that she didn't speak for a long time.

In the past few years, the province and Taiwan have done a lot of publicity work related to wildlife protection, and even set up a Douyin account specifically for this series. Yang Ling can scan one in the local area from time to time.

Under the influence of her ears and eyes, she knew exactly what this profession was about. But she couldn't imagine, just Zhou Yi's broken physique, what would it take to become what she is now.

"Is it difficult?" Yang Ling asked distressedly.

Zhou Yi leaned against the head of the bed, trying to speak lightly, "At first, I felt like I was going to die after running less than 500 meters outside, but after a long time, I got used to it, and it seemed like that."

"What's that? It's so easy to get hurt all over your body?" Yang Ling retorted displeasedly. Now, whenever she thinks of those scars on Zhou Yi's body, her eyes will turn sour.

"Why do you want to do this?" Yang Ling asked, neither she nor Tang Yuanzhou knew about Shang Ning's affairs, so they wouldn't think in that direction.

Zhou Yi is very grateful for this, which can save her a lot of explanations.

"For a woman." Zhou Yi said, the same as the answer to Mu Qinglin, she needs a unified voice so as not to be exposed.

Yang Ling was very surprised by this answer, "What woman? Then you and Mu Qinglin..."

"She will only be my sister from now on." Zhou Yi interrupted.

"What?!" Yang Ling turned pale with shock, and when she was about to ask again, Tang Yuanzhou opened the door and came in. While putting the dinner on the small table, he said to Zhou Yi: "I told you a long time ago that no matter what we meet, If you have any difficulty, you must think two steps back, and take into account what you and the other party may become because of it, but you are better off, and you refuse to listen, and you have to make such a big detour to get out, do you deserve it?"

Zhou Yi caught the chopsticks handed over by Tang Yuanzhou, lowered his head and said, "I thought about it..."

"Thinking about it, can you still toss like this?!"

"Hey! Let me tell you what's going on with you?" Yang Ling noticed that Tang Yuanzhou's tone had changed, and kicked him angrily, "Speaking well will kill you, right?"

Tang Yuanzhou was in pain, so he was too lazy to talk about it.

After Zhou Yi finished his meal, Tang Yuanzhou cleaned up the garbage and left with Yang Ling.

Zhou Yi said that she can lie down and move, and doesn't need someone to accompany her at night.

As soon as the ward fell silent, the calmness on Zhou Yi's face disappeared instantly.

I still feel a little pain in my heart, like a convulsion, and I can't hold it down.

Mu Qinglin was so angry last night, but today she has to calmly agree to her so conscientious request, and she doesn't know how much she has thought behind her back, how much she has pushed back into her heart...

Zhou Yi lowered his head and blew lightly on the obvious red mark on his wrist, his eyes gradually turned red.

If I had known it earlier, I would have followed suit last night. Maybe I could give her a sneaky hug if my hands weren't tied.

—

In the next two days, Tang Yuanzhou came over regularly to deliver three meals, and Yang Ling would also come to chat with Zhou Yi after get off work.

Zhou Yi has nothing to do. Every day he either sits and eats, or lies down to sleep. Occasionally, he clicks on the old WeChat to check what's going on in Moments.

Never once did she see what she wanted to see.

On the morning of the third day, the doctor came to check on Zhou Yi's condition, and said that the inflamed wound was almost healed, and prescribed some medicine for her to be discharged from the hospital to make room for her.

Xiao Hei overheard Tang Yuanzhou talking to Yang Ling, knew that Zhou Yi was back, and insisted on following him, and was running up and down to go through the discharge procedures.

Tang Yuanzhou tidied up Zhou Yi's things, stood by the bed and said, "Come home with me in a while. Your house doesn't even have an air conditioner, so it can't live in people."

Zhou Yi squeezed the phone tightly and said in a low voice, "Brother, I'm going back soon." Don't bother back and forth.

Tang Yuanzhou heard the meaning of Zhou Yi's words, and immediately changed his face, "As you are now, what can you do when you go back? When the villain comes, can you hide or catch up?"

Zhou Yi said: "It's not every day that people come to poach. Most of the time it's just a daily patrol, just walking a few steps."

Tang Yuanzhou saw that Zhou Yi had made up his mind, he hesitated to speak for a moment, and said, "You really like this?"

Zhou Yi's heart skipped a beat. She has always been doing this with a purpose, and she has never thought about it far away. Like... It shouldn't be considered, at most, she has a little responsibility.

"The discharge procedure has been completed." Xiao Hei hurried in and rescued Zhou Yi who didn't know how to reply, "Just this thing?" Xiao Hei asked, pointing to the bag in Tang Yuanzhou's hand.

Tang Yuanzhou handed it to him casually and said, "Drive the car to the door."

"Oh..." Xiao Hei caught it, and turned to call out to Zhou Yi who was blocked by Tang Yuanzhou, "Xiao Jiu, you are not allowed to run around again this time. I let out a howl, and the people in the store have already lined up, ready to invite you one by one. Where are you eating?"

Zhou Yi's lowered eyelashes trembled slightly, she thought that no one from Buddha and Demon remembered her.

Xiao Hei didn't see Zhou Yi's expression, and was still rambling dissatisfiedly, "Because I wasn't at the scene, they were scheduled until next month! No matter, you have to make room for me to eat more tonight The place! I want to invite you first!"

"Why do you talk so much!" Tang Yuanzhou squeezed the little black head, and threatened: "Hurry up!"

It was so rare that Xiao Hei did not succumb to his lust, "Xiao Jiu hasn't nodded yet!"

Tang Yuanzhou said: "She won't go back to the store, so what kind of point is she?"

Xiao Hei was taken aback, and bravely pushed Tang Yuanzhou away, and ran to ask Zhou Yi, "Xiao Jiu, why don't you go back to the store? Knowing you're back, we were so happy that we almost lifted the roof!"

Zhou Yi didn't preset this scene, his mind was a little confused, and he couldn't think of a speech for a while.

Before the silence began to spread, Tang Yuanzhou kicked Xiao Hei and said coldly, "Will you go or not!"

Xiao Hei staggered a few steps from being kicked, his mouth was pursed and he still didn't want to move.

Seeing that Tang Yuanzhou was going to be angry, Xiao Hei shouted quickly: "Xiao Jiu, we miss you very much, you must come back to see us when you are free! Someone will take over Hongmen Lane next year, and Buddha Demon will definitely move out, but the people there We can’t take the rooftop away! If you come too late, you won’t be able to go up!”

Xiao Hei ran away after shouting, leaving Zhou Yi to ask Tang Yuanzhou in disbelief: "Do you really want to move?"

Tang Yuanzhou's voice was slightly lower, "Well, next year it will become a scenic spot, and the tattoo shop will not be affected well, so we can't open there."

Zhou Yi didn't understand, "We don't steal or rob, and we don't do business that violates regulations, so why is it not a good influence?"

"It's like this in a small business." Tang Yuanzhou touched Zhou Yi's back shoulder, signaling her to leave, "It's a good thing that someone in Hongmen Lane will take over, and there won't be so many messy things in the future."

"But leaving there, the Buddha and demon will change."

"Nothing is set in stone, just get used to it."

Tang Yuanzhou left the ward.

Zhou Yi followed behind, walking very slowly.

Hongmen Lane was the place where she and Mu Qinglin met for the first time, and there was no chance to sit by the window again. Just like treasure hunting, I counted the Provincial Taiwan Buildings one by one to find her.

Zhou Yi felt sour, looked up and saw Tang Yuanzhou's back that was exactly the same as five years ago, his heart softened, he walked to his side, erased the unfamiliarity in front of him, chatted and said: "Brother, you give me the money, I will give it to you in a while. Probably not yet."

Tang Yuanzhou glanced at her, and said in a bad tone, "What's missing from you?"

Zhou consciously shut his mouth.

After a while, Tang Yuanzhou took the initiative to speak, with a softer attitude, "Lingling transferred some money into your card yesterday, and you take it with you when you leave. Eat well and dress well, so that you can have the confidence to protect your animals."

Zhou Yi turned his head to look at Tang Yuanzhou, "How much?"

"It's more than two million yuan. It was originally saved for your dowry. Now I can use it wherever I can." Tang Yuanzhou pressed the elevator and looked up at the slowly changing numbers above. If you don’t raise children, it’s useless to save money, and I’ll give it to you in the future.”

Zhou Yi stared at Tang Yuanzhou's calm side face, and after a long while said "hmm" without saying anything unnecessary.

Tang Yuanzhou doesn't like to hear the word "thank you", but she will remember this simple and direct support in her heart.

"Brother, I will call back often in the future." Zhou Yi said.

Tang Yuanzhou turned his face slightly, "Try to pick the night, because I'm busy during the day, sometimes I can't get it."

Zhou Yi nodded and said, "Okay..."

—

Back at the hotel, Zhou Yi cleaned up the mess left over from that night, sweating all over. She didn't dare to let the wound get wet again, so she could barely wipe it off, sat on the side of the bed, and took her mobile phone to check whether the companies that had left messages had replied.

After dawdling to get up at Han Qiu's side, Zhou Yi immediately called her, "Sister Qiu, I'm sorry, something happened these few days, so I didn't go out for a run."

"Hey, I was just about to tell you about this." Han Qiu's tone was very brisk, "Nevianan has received donation intentions from six or seven domestic companies in the past two days, and they are all big brands with names. There are also four or five, she roughly estimated that this batch of money and supplies is enough for us for at least three years."

Zhou Yi frowned, "Why do so many people contact us all of a sudden?"

Han Qiu said: "I still want to ask you, didn't you find these companies and funds?"

"No, I didn't dare to contact big companies. As for the fund..." Zhou Yi recalled Zhang Zhong's words that night, raised his hand and brushed back the hair that fell to his forehead, and said, "Only Lvye said it, but it was after dinner. There is no more text."

"No, Lvye was the first to contact Nevianan. They donated 1 million supplies at one time and delivered them in four batches over two years." Han Qiu said.

Holding the mobile phone, Zhou Yi thought slowly, "Did the person who contacted Nevianan tell us how they found our patrol team?"

Han Qiu, "It is said that the news was received in China. We always thought it was you who made it happen."

She has no such ability.

At least, Lu Ye's generosity is definitely not her credit.

"Zhou Yi, how is your matter going?" Han Qiu asked in a low voice.

Zhou Yi came back to his senses, and said ambiguously: "It's solved..."

"You..." Han Qiu wanted to say something, but was called by Gore, and hurriedly ended the call with Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi sat on the edge of the bed without moving for a long time.

She clicked into Mu Qinglin's WeChat repeatedly, and quit again and again, but in the end she still didn't dare to say "thank you" to her under uncertain circumstances.

But she knew in her heart that, except for Mu Qinglin, no one should be able to find so many wildlife conservation-related resources in a short period of time.

Perhaps, she used all the connections she had accumulated in the past few years of publicity for wildlife protection on her... them.

Zhou Yi fell backwards, throwing himself on the bed in a daze.

With the team's dilemma resolved, it was time for her to go back.

So fast…

Turning his head, seeing the empty bedside table, Zhou Yi paused for a few seconds, then quickly sat up and walked over.

The gourd she had put there was gone.

Zhou Yi moved the cabinet and searched at the base of the wall, then the drawers, bags, and finally even the bedside, but found nothing.

Downstairs, the boss patted the half-eaten watermelon and swore that Aunt Cleaning had never been allowed into her room.

Where else could her gourd go?

Seeing the pearl earrings sandwiched between the mattress and the bed frame, Zhou Yi's flustered thoughts slammed back to the ground.

Mu Qinglin probably took it away.

We broke up, and the things I gave her are about to go back.

normal…

…

—

In Provincial Taiwan, it was almost half past twelve when Fu Xiao returned from editing the film.

When it was time to finish lunch, Mu Qinglin was still chatting with a comprehensive food company.

Fu Xiao came over and asked in bewilderment, "Why have you been staring at the field protection for the past two days? Are there any supplies in the southwest?"

"No..." Mu Qinglin said, "I contacted another patrol team."

"Which one?"

"The one Zhou Yi wanted."

Fu Xiao choked so much that her nose almost flowed out. She quickly pulled out a piece of paper and pressed it, and said in disbelief, "Zhou Yi is a wildlife ranger now?"

After finishing "eating", Mu Qinglin stood up rubbing his shoulders and said, "Well, I'm still the vice-captain."

Fu Xiao, "I'll go, what has she experienced in the past five years? She has completely changed her body."

Mu Qinglin paused when he pushed the chair under the table, and said, "I don't know..."

Fu Xiao knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and changed the topic calmly, "That is to say, you have been doing wild conservation work for the past few years, and you are familiar with people from major funds, and those brands that are enthusiastic about public welfare are willing to sell your face. If it's me, I guess I won't be able to get a dime."

Mu Qinglin smiled and didn't answer, leaned over and opened the drawer, took out a jewelry box from it and handed it to Fu Xiao, "When I go to the Provincial Expo in the afternoon, help me bring this to Master Li."

Fu Xiao caught it and asked curiously, "What is it?"

Mu Qinglin said, "A small jade gourd, the body of the bottle is cracked, ask Master Li for help to repair it. It has been agreed in advance, you can take it to him directly."

Fu Xiao sighed, "Master Li is a restorer of cultural relics. Isn't it too talented for you to ask him to repair such a small broken gourd? This is not a good jade, so you can repair it in any place."

Mu Qinglin said: "It can be repaired, but it's not my effect."

"What effect do you want?"

"Not only will it not crack from this opening, but there will be no gap."

Fu Xiao heard the voice of Mu Qinglin's words, raised his eyes and asked, "Who owns this gourd?"

Mu Qinglin said: "Zhou Yi. She used to be in poor health and didn't like to drink medicine. I used it to coax her."

After scrubbing Zhou Yi that morning, Mu Qinglin saw the gourd on the bedside table, picked it up with complicated emotions, and found a crack on it.

It looks very new, it must have been dropped by her when she helped Mu Zipei catch the thief. If you don't care about it, it will definitely crack from here after a long time.

Mu Qinglin thought of Master Li, a cultural relic restorer whom he had met during an interview, and silently put the gourd into his pocket and brought it out.

She hasn't thought about whether to return it after it's repaired.

Fu Xiao understood, "Okay, I will definitely bring it to Master Li in the afternoon."

Mu Qinglin, "Thank you. Have dinner together?"

Fu Xiao, "Let's go..."

As soon as the two came out, Mu Qinglin was stopped by An Xiang in a hurry, "Sister Mu, Lao Wang is looking for you."

Mu Qinglin asked, "What's the matter?"

"I didn't say..." An Xiang shook his head, "But it looks exciting, so it should be a good thing."

Mu Qinglin said: "I'll go and have a look. Xiao, you go to the cafeteria first, and if I haven't gone after eating, bring me a copy."

Fu Xiao, "OK..."

Mu Qinglin knocked on the door and entered Wang Hejing's office, and asked him, "What do you want from me?"

"What a great thing!" Wang Hejing couldn't sit still with excitement, "Approved! This time it's really approved!"

Mu Qinglin was puzzled, "What's approved?"

"Documentary!" Wang Hejing came out from behind the desk, speaking quickly, "Didn't you always want to make a documentary about wild protection? It was approved by the station, and the funds and manpower are very sufficient!"

Mu Qinglin was leaning on the table, with pockets in his hands, "It's been rejected for almost ten years, why is it approved all of a sudden?"

Wang Hejing said: "It's not the result of your insistence on publicity for wild protection! In the past few years, you have almost done one film a month, from south to north, from shooting to editing and dubbing.

At the beginning, it was only tens of thousands of views, but now it is tens of millions, and its influence cannot be underestimated.

After the May 4th Movement this year, didn't the station keep talking about making special programs, and the higher-ups wanted to include wild insurance as one of them.

After all, there are quite a few rare species on the territory of our province, so we must lead by example and promote them in the matter of wild conservation. If you want to publicize, you must do something that can be sold. "

"How is it? Are you interested?" Wang Hejing asked.

Without thinking, Mu Qinglin said, "There is..."

"Well..." Wang Hejing's tone suddenly settled down, "In the past few years, with you, the patrol team that your mother has been with for a lifetime has not only improved the situation, but also increased the number of people. Even if you can’t go home for several years, your mother has already died in the ground, and when the documentary is broadcast, the ideals of this group of people will meet reality. For you, this can be regarded as a kind of overdue consummation.”

Many years late.

Mu Qinglin pressed his knuckles with his fingers in his pocket, and said, "I want to make a comparison."

Wang Hejing, "What comparison?"

"At home and abroad, the blizzard in the southwest and..." Mu Qinglin lowered his head, looked up at Wang Hejing, "Zhouyi's scorching sun there."

"Zhou Yi?!" Wang Hejing was only shocked for a moment, and immediately calmed down, "She also does this now?"

Mu Qinglin nodded, "She is in a savannah thousands of kilometers away from Jiangping."

because of you?

The words were on Wang Hejing's lips, recalling Mu Qinglin's quiet life in the past few years, he swallowed the words back, and asked tentatively, "Why did Zhou Yi go there?"

"It's not clear yet." Mu Qinglin looked away, looked at the famous inscriptions hanging on the wall in front of him, and said, "Go to the place she guards and take a look and you should know."

Wang Hejing frowned and looked at Mu Qinglin for a while, then followed her words and said, "Can you reach Zhou Yi himself?"

Mu Qinglin said, "Can..."

"Then let's do it, I will hire you the best documentary director in Taiwan." Wang Hejing said.

Mu Qinglin turned around and smiled, "Thank you, Master."

Hearing the long-lost address, Wang Hejing's eyes turned hot, "Do it well, and make sure to fill in the missing last stroke."

"Okay..." Mu Qinglin straightened up and walked out.

When he reached the door, Mu Qinglin suddenly turned around and asked Wang Hejing, "Do you still count on the matter of giving me an office?"

"Forget it, you are the deputy director now, so you should have your own independent office." Wang Hejing was surprised, "However, didn't you say that you would stay with Fu Xiao and the others to facilitate communication and work, and you refused?"

"I regret it now."

"Okay, I'll have someone clean it up for you in a while."

After coming out of Wang Hejing's office, Mu Qinglin didn't go to the cafeteria, but talked to Fu Xiao on WeChat and asked her to help. After that, she just sat at her desk and stared at her phone in a daze.

After tossing around for so long, she still forgot to ask Zhou Yi for a phone number.

Mu Qing entered into the WeChat chat records with Zhou Yi, looked at the photo of her and Han Qiu for a long time, and finally went to the input box calmly, and sent her WeChat: [Xiaojiu, our station wants to make a film about wild protection. Documentary, the first stop is the savannah, can you and your team be our guide? 】

When Zhou Yi received this message, she had just packed her thin luggage when she came.

The author has something to say:
