moon like rain
Chapter 69
The dull thunder made Xiao Mengqian wake up from her stupor. When she woke up, she was the only one in the room. Xiao Mengqian stared at the ceiling for a while, then came back to put on her slippers and came out to have a look.
The window on the balcony has long been closed, and Xiao Mengqian is the only one at home. There are milk and unpacked bread bags next to the microwave oven in the kitchen, and I eat these again... Xiao Mengqian shook her head helplessly, but she doesn't want to move now. Put the milk bread in the microwave and heat it up.
It was raining heavily outside the window, Cheng Yinuo should have gotten up early to go to the company, Xiao Mengqian drank milk and carefully recalled what happened last night.
Xiao Mengqian vaguely remembered what Cheng Yinuo said, but she was also very uncomfortable at the time. After seeing Cheng Yinuo vomit, she endured and endured so that she did not vomit. What did she say?
But Xiao Mengqian didn't want to call and ask, so let's wait for her to come back, otherwise Yi Nuo probably won't remember what he said.
Living in a foreign country for these years, Xiao Mengqian has long been accustomed to a certain sense of loneliness.
Even though the outside world talked a lot about Mr. He, the only apprentice, Xiao Mengqian also set up an easel on the balcony according to her own habit at this time. Xiao Mengqian actually likes listening to the rain.
Whether it's heavy rain or continuous drizzle, the sound of rain will calm her heart, but it's still an excuse that she hasn't calmed down after drinking too much, Xiao Mengqian looks at the sky outside and draws a sketch.
Although the lines in the pen continued to extend, it was visible to the naked eye that Xiao Mengqian was distracted, and what the sound of the rain brought was no longer inner peace, but inner memories.
But after a while, Xiao Mengqian realized something, put down the brush, and called Mu Yunbian.
With Mu Yunbian's drinking capacity, she wouldn't have woken up at all if it wasn't for Xiao Mengqian's phone call, but Mu Yunbian, who was originally dazed, woke up after Xiao Mengqian said a word.
"Mumu? Fangfang, her, return, okay?"
The memories of running away from the toilet yesterday finally caught up at this time. Xiao Mengqian squatted on the ground and curled up into a ball. She felt a little cold. There was silence on the phone for a few seconds before Mu Yunbian said:
"She, she is very good, really good. Mr. He told her about your experiences over the years."
"You tell me about her, you know?"
Mu Yun heard the expectation and worry in Xiao Mengqian's hasty words.
"I know, from, let's start from that day." Mu Yun tried hard to remember.
……
"She really worked hard, all, all opened a branch, it's great..."
"Sister, you..." Mu Yun changed his voice when he heard the crying on the phone: "You, cry if you want."
"Don't cry, don't cry." Xiao Mengqian coaxed herself, touched her tears and said, "I'm so happy that she, can, can live. In this way, I... I can let go of some..."
What Mu Yunbian didn't know was that Ji Hefang seldom went to the head office to work now. Although the branch office was not big, the height of the eight-story building was enough for Ji Hefang to watch the students from Ruoshui Middle School across the street from the office. come and go.
When Cheng Yinuo came home from get off work at night and saw Xiao Mengqian's eyes red and swollen coming out of the kitchen, Cheng Yinuo guessed that it was probably related to Ji Hefang.
Cheng Yinuo, who was thinking of asking something, heard Xiao Mengqian handing her chopsticks and saying:
"I'm fine. I asked Mumu about Fangfang's situation. I knew she was doing well, so I was relieved."
Even though there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, she could still feel that Xiao Mengqian was not happy in the tone that gradually dropped at the end.
"Why are you drinking again?" Xiao Mengqian said and was going to get the wine glass in Cheng Yinuo's hand.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Mengqian noticed the loneliness on Cheng Yinuo's face, but because of this delay, Cheng Yinuo simply drank from the bottle instead of the cup.
"What's the matter with you?!" Xiao Mengqian snatched the wine from her hand, but saw Cheng Yinuo's eyes with just drunkenness and a somewhat inexplicable expression: "I like you. , can you say whatever you want?"
Cheng Yinuo suddenly turned around and looked at Xiao Mengqian seriously, and said word by word: "Xiao, Meng, Qian. I, love, you."
After finishing speaking, even when Cheng Yinuo reached out to take the wine and glass in Xiao Mengqian's hand, Xiao Mengqian still stared blankly at her. A flash of light and a hesitant struggle.
"You, just think I drank too much." Cheng Yinuo drank another glass of wine and pulled Xiao Mengqian to sit down.
"I, I can't give you an answer now, I owe you too much, I, I..." Xiao Mengqian sat on the chair and turned her head away.
"Xiao Mengqian, I like you not because you are worthy of my liking, but because you are worthy. What's more, I didn't plan to... I got your consent today because, because I saw you meeting Ji Hefang, I'm afraid of you leaving, I'm afraid..."
"You, let me think about it, don't cry, why did you cry when you told me you liked it? Don't cry, let's eat first, shall we?" Xiao Mengqian hugged Yinuo during the process, but the moment she hugged her , Xiao Mengqian suddenly felt her heart tremble, and then continued to change the topic stiffly:
"I made your favorite shrimp, eat it first, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
Late at night, in two rooms, two insomniacs, when the two insomniacs were looking at the ceiling and thinking about something, on the other side of Lingtong City, Chi Muyan was stroking Yi Qinghan's hair while listening to Mu Yun Talk about what happened today.
"I told my sister very early that she likes Mengqian, and I neither support nor oppose it, but I am really sad about their appearance."
"Today, Mengqian told me that she knew that Ji Hefang was doing well, so she let go of it..."
"Do you believe it?" Chi Muyan interrupted her.
Before Mu Yun could answer, Chi Muyan continued: "I don't believe in letting go of such words, some words and some things, if you hide too much, you won't be able to hide it."
"Huh? What's the matter?" Chi Muyan saw Mu Yun staring at the phone screen in a daze.
"My sister confessed to Meng Qian." Mu Yunbian said in shock.
Chi Muyan didn't feel surprised, but the movement of her hands still stopped, making Yi Qinghan, who was pillowed on her lap, groan.
"Well, a sense of crisis." Chi Muyan said.
"I asked her how she was, but she hasn't answered me yet." Mu Yunbian said.
"No, she did her best to tell you."
"Then what's the matter with them, it's really not good, I'll take Meng Qian to live in my house, she has no place to live here."
"No, Xiao Mengqian is in a mess now, don't worry."
"No, I'm in a hurry, I'm not worried about my sister, I'm afraid something will happen to Meng Qian again!"
Chi Muyan grabbed Mu Yunbian's sleeve and said, "Wait until tomorrow, go to bed."
Seeing Chi Muyan's calm face, and there was still no reply in the chat box, Mu Yun sighed and said good night.
After Mu Yun got up and went back to the room, Chi Muyan picked up Yi Qinghan and went back to their room. After putting Yi Qinghan gently on the bed and covering her with the quilt, Chi Muyan kissed Yi Qinghan's forehead: "You really will take advantage."
Yi Qinghan opened his eyes and said, "What are you making my Mumu look like? What's wrong with taking advantage, I want to take it now!" After speaking, he turned over and was about to press him down, but Chi Muyan pushed him back, She raised her two hands above her head and pressed them firmly: "There is still business, don't make trouble."
Yi Qinghan groaned again before saying, "One is done."
Chi Muyan nodded.
Mu Yunbian didn't know why he had to wait until tomorrow, but Chi Muyan and Yi Qinghan could see clearly in the task lists of their respective systems, helping Mu Yunbian today, helping Cheng Yinuo tomorrow, helping Xiao Mengqian the day after tomorrow, the task rewards :big baby.
Looking at the three words "big baby", Yi Qinghan recalled many bad memories.
"Sleep, don't make trouble tonight." Chi Muyan kissed her forehead again.
Xiao Mengqian didn't sleep all night, and when she got up early and heard Cheng Yinuo's going out, she relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.
However, Cheng Yinuo, who was out of the house, didn't go to work. He drove to Chi Muyan's house. As soon as he opened the door, Mu Yunbian greeted him: "Sister? Are you okay? How is Meng Qian?" ?”
"I, I'm fine, Meng Qian is still sleeping." Cheng Yinuo actually didn't know what to say, she just wanted to chat with her own sister, but she never thought that Mu Yunbian stayed at Chi Muyan's house for two days, And at this time Chi Muyan was also at home, sitting on the balcony reading a book.
Thinking of the conversation with Chi Muyan last time, Cheng Yinuo felt that it would be good to have one more person to discuss this matter. When she passed by Mengqian's door today, she felt that the air was full of embarrassment and silence.
"It's a good thing to have a sense of crisis, it shows that she is very important to you." Chi Muyan said after listening to the detailed process of yesterday's confession.
"I think it's a tactful refusal if someone says something that I can't give you an answer to, but Mengqian..." Mu Yun looked at Chi Muyan while talking.
Chi Muyan nodded: "That girl's words mean that you really still have a chance."
"Although it's a bit abrupt, Xiao Mengqian won't leave until I've dealt with your reply."
"Mengqian, will she leave after rejecting me?" Cheng Yinuo regretted yesterday's impulsiveness, and his voice trembled.
"That's not what I mean, I'm just saying that this matter is very abrupt, forget it, let me explain in detail." Chi Muyan put down the book and said:
"For so many years, what has trapped Xiao Mengqian is not all kinds of knots in the past, but a very simple knot in the heart. Even Xiao Mengqian only knows that there is another hurdle in her heart that she can't get over, but you have to let Xiao Mengqian She said that she may not know what happened to trip her up."
"What I thought at the beginning was that before you untie this knot, you don't want to confess. When a friend helps her, takes care of her, and keeps her company, when she untangles her heart one day and opens her heart, you You can be the first to live in."
"But it's not impossible for you to do this." Chi Muyan saw Cheng Yinuo's eyes light up as soon as he changed the subject: "At least, your words can make Xiao Mengqian himself clearly aware of this knot in his heart. The existence of you is a trouble that needs to be resolved, according to the original plan, it will take a lot of effort for you to untie this knot."
Chi Muyan was not used to talking a lot. Seeing Cheng Yinuo's fighting spirit rekindled in Cheng Yinuo's eyes, Chi Muyan put down the chair and covered his face with the book. not my business.
Just now when she closed her eyes, Chi Muyan suddenly realized, didn't she say what to do next?Forget it, let them think about it, Chi Muyan glanced at the task bar, and went to sleep more at ease after seeing that today's task was completed.
In fact, there is no good solution for the next step. Mu Yunbian and Cheng Yinuo carefully considered it for a long time, and finally decided that it is safest to wait and see what happens. It's just that Cheng Yinuo's way of treating Xiao Mengqian can be more "radical". The original words are, do something to show that you love her, don't hold back.
On the third day, Chi Muyan, who had been busy all night, was still in good spirits. After tucking Yi Qinghan in the quilt, he got up and went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Chi Muyan who came out with breakfast saw Mu Yun with dark eyes. He sat on the sofa and looked at her resentfully.
Chi Muyan was very confused, wouldn't the matter be resolved today?Why can't I sleep well?
While eating, Mu Yun began to look at himself, Chi Muyan hesitated and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Your house, the sound quality is quite good at night..."
Chi Muyan: "..."
Repenting a bit of Chi Muyan's decision, she called Xiao Mengqian over after dinner.
At noon, Chi Muyan saw Xiao Mengqian. The girl with long hair reaching her waist was very neatly dressed, her face was very artistic, and her clothes were also very artistic. This was Chi Muyan's evaluation.
"Sister, is it about... Cheng Yinuo?" Xiao Mengqian asked.
"Yes, not all." Chi Muyan looked at Xiao Mengqian who was wearing a long white dress and said, "Do you know where your knot is now?"
Sure enough, Chi Muyan watched Xiao Mengqian ponder for a long time, then nodded and said: "Mengqian, why not go out for a walk, life in a foreign country makes you get used to loneliness, and long-term knots make you forget your original So many memories, so many places I want to go, the world is still so big, it may be another city full of traffic, or it may be the gurgling mountain stream. It is a small shop on the corner that has been open for many years. You smiled, it was you who went to the mountains to see the ringing of the temple bells, the solemn Buddha statues, there are always such subtleties that let you find yourself. If not, I found it.”
Looking at Mu Yunbian and Xiao Mengqian who were listening seriously, Chi Muyan closed the book: "After reading this paragraph, don't be in a daze, go have lunch with Mumu, go home and sleep, think about it."
"Go out for a walk?" Xiao Mengqian suddenly felt that she had really limited her life, even in country D, in fact, most of the time, she did the same thing every day...
It was Mu Yun who said, "Master, I have realized."
Chi Muyan looked at Mu Yunbian speechlessly, before leaving, Mu Yunbian turned his head and said: "Master, pay attention to your body!"
If it wasn't for Xiao Mengqian who had understood a little bit, Mu Yunbian would have been dragged back and beaten by Chi Muyan.
After the two left, Chi Muyan returned to the reclining chair, and continued to read the Chinese medicine books she had memorized by heart until noon, when Yi Qinghan, who woke up from hunger, left the room as if his waist had been stabbed.
Chi Muyan moved away from the book and looked up to find Yi Qinghan looking at him with resentment.
"what happened?"
The resentful Yi Qinghan said in an even more resentful whisper: "Is there anything that dissatisfies you, and I want you to come here after one night and solve it yourself?"
"Huh?" Chi Muyan raised her eyebrows in confusion.
Following Yi Qinghan's gaze, Chi Muyan saw the big baby who was quietly lying beside her lap, and was given to her after completing the mission.
While eating, Mu Yun asked, "Sister, do you have any plans?"
Xiao Mengqian felt that even if she was listening to the same set of words that the master often said, she had indeed noticed the problem. After realizing that there was a solution to the problem, Xiao Mengqian felt a lot more relaxed.
"I didn't think about it. Let's talk about it. Compared with this, I am actually more confused about another thing."
"What's the matter?" Mu Yunbian leaned over.
"How can you be a good apprentice."
Mu Yunbian: "..."
In fact, her master He Lao didn't think about this problem well, because according to He Lao's initial idea, the healing that this painting exhibition and this ceremony brought to Xiao Mengqian was higher than the status of master and apprentice.
After drawing and sighing for three days, Mr. He thought for a while and felt that he couldn’t let his precious apprentice be freed like this. After thinking about it for another afternoon, Mr. He probably drew up a plan for Xiao Mengqian to fully understand his school. However, these three days of sighing, in fact, four days have passed since Cheng Yinuo confessed his love.
After Mr. He had figured out how to teach his precious apprentice, what he was waiting for was a call from Cheng Yinuo.
"Grandpa! Meng Qian is gone!"
When Cheng Yinuo came home at night and saw that the kitchen hadn't turned on the light, she thought that Mengqian must have something to cook, and she would do it if she had nothing to do. She cooked for Mengqian. The door of the shallow dream.
It's been a long time since there was any movement inside, Cheng Yinuo suddenly panicked, opened the door and found that the room was completely cleaned up, nothing about Xiao Mengqian was left, Cheng Yinuo cried at that time, trembling Xiao Mengqian made a phone call and looked for Xiao Mengqian from room to room. When she arrived in the living room, she found that there was an extra painting on the cabinet in the living room, and there was a line of small words on it: I am traveling far away!I'll give you an answer in a while, there's a lot of food in the refrigerator, no takeaway, no coffee!
Who cares if you can't go far away, Cheng Yinuo panicked even more, and the worry and fear that Xiao Mengqian would leave all the time spread, until after calling Mu Yunbian, Mu Yunbian comforted her for a long time and said that Mengqian Cheng Yinuo only slowly stopped trembling after going out for a long trip to untie his knots.
Anxiously calling Lao Zhu and Lin Yang to find Xiao Mengqian, Mr. He received a call from Mu Yunbian. After Mu Yunbian explained, Mr. He pressed his heart. After all, he was young, so he left as soon as he said it. Send me away too...
Just after hanging up Mu Yunbian's phone call, Cheng Yinuo called again.
"Grandpa! Nuonuo is gone too!"
Mr. He, who was stunned for a second before he realized it, simply sat on a chair and rested. He is old and needs to exercise his heart, whether it is good or bad...
"Old Zhu, go and inform Mr. Song, let her come to work tomorrow, hey... young people nowadays..."
The reason why Xiao Mengqian forgot to tell others was that when she decided where to go for the first stop, she was so excited that she simply forgot.
When Xiao Mengqian woke up in the hotel the next day and realized the problem, Mr. He was already, it didn't matter...
There is no definite itinerary, just go there with your mobile phone and go there if you think it is fun, no matter how many days you play, Xiao Mengqian, who is racing on the international metropolis track on the east coast at this time, didn't think so much, followed a curve Dodging a corner, Xiao Mengqian, who was soaring with adrenaline, couldn't possibly notice that screaming girl in the auditorium.
We have also been to international metropolises, so I won’t go shopping here. I heard that in the southern town of Jiangnan, there are snacks that have been passed down for hundreds of years, and there are also clothes made by Suzhou embroidery masters for several years. When Xiao Mengqian turned around and looked at the race track , I can't wait to drive the car inside to the small town in the south of the Yangtze River.
She has thought a lot and worried a lot, but now, she is sitting in this quaint little shop in the south of the Yangtze River drinking the iced sour plum soup in that lotus-colored skirt that she might not be willing to buy because of the price. Heartless little girl.
However, on the second floor of the inn across the path, Cheng Yinuo took a camera to freeze the picture of Xiao Mengqian giggling in the air.
Looking at the photos in the camera, Cheng Yinuo smiled softly. With these memories, even if you really refuse, it's okay.
Putting the camera aside and speaking with a pen, it was a song she wrote for her.
Seeing Xiao Mengqian waving her fan and going to the next store step by step, Cheng Yinuo looked at Xiao Mengqian with tenderness in his eyes.
But soon, Cheng Yinuo found that something was wrong. This little girl named Xiao Mengqian, could she run a little bit? These days, she followed her all the way south, sometimes going to a certain place of interest, sometimes Going to a place to simply eat local delicacies, it was not until a certain coastal city in the southeast, under a coconut tree on a small island, that Cheng Yinuo saw several fresh paintings next to the easel set up by Xiao Mengqian.
Looking at Xiao Mengqian who was serious about painting and the hot weather on the island, Cheng Yinuo turned to look at the little boy who just served him coconut juice.
"Sister, are you selling this painting?" The little boy walked up to Xiao Mengqian with a frozen coconut in his arms and asked.
"Huh?" Xiao Mengqian, who was painting, looked down and squatted down after seeing a cute little boy, "This painting is not for sale, but..."
But before he finished speaking, the little boy took his iced coconut and handed it to Xiao Mengqian: "Sister, can I exchange iced coconut with you? Our coconut is the best in Guangru City!"
"Well... But this painting is not good, can my sister draw another one for you?"
"Okay! I want to put on a Superman poss, is it okay?"
"Of course you can!"
"Great!"
Just when Cheng Yinuo was about to be tormented mad by the mosquitoes on the island, Cheng Yinuo, who was looking at the scenery on the second floor of a hotel, saw Xiao Mengqian, she!She came out in a swimsuit!
babble...
Cheng Yinuo heard herself making such a voice. She stood on the second floor and saw clearly. The little girl paddled lightly with her toes at first. For Xiao Mengqian, she had been to the beach before, but she really came to the beach to play. , for the first time.
After cautiously probing the rushing sea water, Cheng Yinuo saw that Xiao Mengqian swooped down in the sea water and then kicked and kicked like an octopus, sending himself into the sea, and then swam and swam. Cheng Yinuo, who saw Xiao Mengqian lying in the sea, really didn't hold back, he patted the table and laughed wantonly, while smiling, he didn't forget to turn on the camera, this time he won't take pictures, let's just video.
After stopping and stopping in several cities in the southeast, Xiao Mengqian took a plane and headed northwest all the way. On the green grassland, in a yurt, Cheng Yinuo held mutton skewers in his left hand and a camera in his right. The photo of Meng Qian riding a horse was taken.
In the photo, Xiao Mengqian has her long hair tied behind her head, black jeans trimmed the lines of her legs, and above, a tight-fitting blouse under the hollow linen gown, which outlines her figure and makes Meng Qian looks heroic, very chic.
And at night, under the boundless night sky of the grassland, the little person looks so insignificant, next time, next time you come, you must lie on the lawn with her and watch the stars, and Cheng Yinuo makes a wish to the night sky where shooting stars streak across.
The next day, Xiao Mengqian did something that Cheng Yinuo could never have imagined. She saw Xiao Mengqian running towards the flock of sheep with scissors like a dancing king zombie, and then saw several people pulling a sheep Xiao Mengqian came out, and Xiao Mengqian was gesturing aside with scissors. Xiao Mengqian, who didn't know where to start pruning, was poked by an uncle. Xiao Mengqian turned her head and saw that the uncle was holding a large razor. The shape seems to say:
"You don't work that well, get this."
"Is it good?"
"It works!"
After working for a day, Xiao Mengqian got his wish and ate roasted whole lamb at night. The huge bonfire illuminated the darkness of the grassland, and everyone sang songs around the bonfire. Watching the horses gallop past, the bold laughter even overwhelmed the singing crowd here.
After singing wildly and drinking heavily, and feeling refreshed physically and mentally, in the red light of the bonfire, Cheng Yinuo made a booing gesture, then picked up the sleeping Xiao Mengqian, and returned to her rented yurt. Reluctantly taking a picture of his sleeping face, he turned and left.
Further to the west, the grassland is gradually sparse and barren, the yellow sand begins to spread, and there are several ruins in the desert. In the afternoon before the arrival of a sandstorm, the dark sky that continues to spread in the distance gives people an overwhelming momentum, declaring the great power of nature. ruthless.
Even so, Xiao Mengqian also stared at the sandstorm in the distance and constantly changed his position, looking for the best angle to describe the ruins.
This is also the first time Cheng Yinuo feels that he is going to die. Although the center of the sandstorm is a certain distance away, even if he is in the "wall" surrounded by camels, the yellow sand filling his body and the whistling wind in his ears are still Let Cheng Yinuo's whole body go limp.
After the sandstorm was over, Cheng Yinuo jumped up and didn't have time to clean up the dust on his body, so he looked at Xiao Mengqian with the binoculars, and saw a sand dune slowly shaking, and suddenly a sand girl jumped out and whimpered.
With this whining, even the camel beside him couldn't stand it anymore, and spit at Xiao Mengqian.
Further to the west, cross the ancient river channel, and walk a few kilometers further, you will see the long river after the diversion. The beautiful scenery of the long river and the setting sun make the isolated city and ruins in the distance even more desolate.
Because it is close to the urban area, this ancient city wall is still being maintained. Along the creaking wooden planks all the way up, Xiao Mengqian climbed the city wall. While walking slowly, Cheng Yinuo climbed onto the city wall and played slowly with the Qiang flute borrowed from the herdsmen.
As the sky gradually darkened, Qiang flute blasted, camel bells melodious, Xiao Mengqian stepped into this city full of... Roast mutton, roast beef, roast kidney, and a lot of barbecues, watching Xiao Mengqian go from one store to another in the downtown area Momentarily, the corner of Cheng Yinuo's mouth twitched, forget it, eat more, this girl is a little out of shape after all these years, so eat more.
Xiao Mengqian, who was soaked by the aroma of barbecue, put away the smile on her face at the next stop.
It never snows in Luoze City in winter, but the cold feeling in memory spreads from the moment the plane landed, and...fortunately, Xiao Mengqian allowed those memories to spread, and the frosty memory collapsed her eyes .
Cheng Yinuo, who was walking behind, watched Xiao Mengqian walk slower and slower, and her heart became nervous unconsciously, until Xiao Mengqian stopped completely and looked out of the window, Cheng Yinuo wanted to rush over and hug her for a long, long time , Xiao Mengqian started to walk again, and Cheng Yinuo, who was relieved, came back to realize that he had already walked several meters forward.
However, unlike Cheng Yinuo's expectations, Xiao Mengqian did not leave the airport to go to the place where she lived before, or the place where Ji Hefang walked together, but directly transferred to the bus at the airport and went to the small county town.
After getting off the bus in the small county town, transfer to the bus and walk along the newly repaired Panshan Highway all the way to the deep mountains. After getting off the bus, Xiao Mengqian looked at the refurbished concrete roads around her very strangely. She didn't know much about this place. The familiar, newly built streets are completely inconsistent with Xiao Mengqian's memories of the early years. After constantly asking for directions and going wrong, it was only when the sky was dark that Xiao Mengqian found the tomb where her father had moved.
Weeds were overgrown in front of the tombstone, but a small area in front of the tomb was fairly clean, and there wasn't much dust on the tombstone.
It seems that someone is still taking care of it. Xiao Mengqian knelt in front of the tomb, cleared the weeds one by one, and then faced the photo of her father, no matter how cold and humid the mountain in winter, she knelt in front of the tomb and said A lot, a lot, while talking, while taking out a wet towel to wipe the dust on the tombstone.
Xiao Mengqian got up and left when the forest was silent. After she left, Cheng Yinuo came out from the gravekeeper's hut, took the flowers she bought, and gently placed them in front of Xiao Junzhu's tomb.
"Uncle, no matter what, I will take good care of her."
The shops along the street next to the high school, besides stationery and restaurants, coffee shops are extra popular. Xiao Mengqian knew that after coming to Luoze City, her mood would definitely fluctuate greatly.
I'm afraid I'm going to suffer from insomnia tonight, so I might as well drink some coffee and draw at night, thinking about it, I crossed the road and walked to the coffee shop.
When ordering coffee, Xiao Mengqian thought of one thing. She even told Cheng Yinuo not to drink coffee in the note, but now...
Just when Xiao Mengqian returned to the school gate with coffee and just stood still, Xiao Mengqian suddenly tightened her waist, and then heard a heart-piercing whisper: "Mengqian..."
Hearing this voice, Xiao Mengqian trembled all over, and turned around with unbelievable and excited eyes. Ji Hefang in her arms was crying uncontrollably, and there was no time to say anything. The only words whispered in her ears were the word Mengqian.
"Fang...Fang..." Calling the person in her arms, Xiao Mengqian's voice was hoarse, not sure if it was true or not, after wandering around for many years, they met here again...
They chatted for a long time, and Cheng Yinuo took a picture of this scene with trembling hands, but after putting down the camera, she suddenly lost the mood to follow. Cheng Yinuo only knew that the passing girls had handed them tissues , the two of them stayed at the gate of the high school until the end of self-study and class, and met the teacher who taught them at that time...
What Cheng Yinuo didn't know was that when Liu Ying and Du Wen asked how they were doing together, both of them were silent, and no one answered the question, but tears flowed down again.
Afterwards, she forgot Cheng Yinuo when she fell asleep that night, and she also forgot where Xiao Mengqian went in the end. She stayed on the bed in the hotel and looked at the records of her journey over and over again.
Crying for a while and laughing for a while, it seems that I am acting a play for my favorite, and the end of the play is the same as the end of the show.
Cheng Yinuo couldn't tell, she continued to follow Xiao Mengqian's steps out of the hotel, stopped at the entrance of the high school, bought coffee at that store and thought about whether to give up, when she turned around, she chose to hear the answer, but in a He froze when he looked up.
Ji Hefang, who was used to buying a cup of coffee before going to work, did not expect to meet Cheng Yinuo here. From Mu Yunbian's mouth, she knew Cheng Yinuo's love for Xiao Mengqian. The two looked at each other for a long time. Said softly: "Hello..."
After Ji Hefang replied hello, there was no more to say. What filled the air was not embarrassment, but words that didn't know where to start.
"She's gone." After Ji Hefang finished speaking, she saw panic in Cheng Yinuo's eyes.
"Where did she go?" There was panic in Cheng Yinuo's voice, she spent three days in the hotel in a daze, it was three days, she didn't stay that long, she just wanted to relax...
"She's going to the snow mountain." Ji Hefang said with inexplicable pride, because when Xiao Mengqian said that she was leaving tomorrow, she guessed that she was going to the snow mountain.
"I told you that there is a price." Ji Hefang saw the flickering light in Cheng Yinuo's eyes.
"Take good care of Mengqian...for the rest of my life..." Ji Hefang still had a proud smile on her lips, but she was actually taking good care of her for me. Such a good girl, how can I cry in front of Cheng Yinuo?
"You can't cry! Promise me to take good care of her! Cheng Yinuo! Your grandfather told me that your name means keeping your promise. Promise me! Cheng Yinuo!"
"I, I swear, I will take good care of Xiao Mengqian for the rest of my life."
Under the tree not far outside the coffee shop, the two fulfilled their lifetime agreement on a girl.
Even if there was a voice in her heart telling her that although Ji Hefang had already withdrawn, Cheng Yinuo looked at Ji Hefang who squatted down and cried loudly, but she didn't feel any joy in her heart. She knelt down and tried the tears on her face, and cried and said repeat to her He said the oath, and then held her in his arms.
Inside and outside the snow-capped mountains in the north, the guide signs of tourist attractions and resorts guided Xiao Mengqian to take the cable car to the village she had been away for many years.
The last time I came here, I could only rely on manpower and pack horses. See you again after many years. It has been an earth-shaking change. As the cable car continues to rise, you can see the village lying quietly in the rolling snow-capped mountains.
The sky is blue, rainy and snowy, and frost comes late.
I don't know if the village head named Yuan Jieyan is still there, and I don't know how the girl named Xue Linjian is now?
In the long memory, the cable car finally arrived at the end, although it was developed as a tourist attraction very well.
But the cold weather is really not something ordinary people can bear, so there are not as many tourists in Shuanglin Village as imagined.
But tourism must have driven the development of this village. The changes in the street layout alone are no longer what they were before. Xiao Mengqian couldn't recognize where Xue Linjian's home was, and even the village chief's office was gone. Walking down the path, you can only see...
I saw a group of children playing in the snow on the playground where the red flag was waving. The teaching building had already been renovated, and the classrooms were clean and tidy, and the sound of reading could be heard.
Xiao Mengqian hesitated and walked in the direction of the school. She didn't know whether Principal Fang Shan was still teaching here. Those children had grown up, so they would definitely not see them here. Under the current conditions, they should all go to the county school. Let's study here.
Walking into the school, the children all looked towards this side when they saw such strange faces walking in, but it was only a moment before the laughter continued.
The pine hut that was once used for cooking has long been replaced by bricks and tiles, and the mist on the windows shows the warmth of the interior.
Just after Xiao Mengqian walked through the hut, suddenly there was a creaking sound behind her, and through the door covered with thick cotton cloth, Xiao Mengqian heard an excited voice coming from inside.
It was only after waiting for a while that Fang Shan, whose legs were deformed and stiff due to the cold and exhaustion, opened the thick curtain and came out.
However, for more than ten years, Fang Shan's appearance has not changed much except for her legs. Seeing Xiao Mengqian, she first shouted hesitantly:
"Xiao Mengqian?"
Seeing the color in Xiao Mengqian's eyes, Fang Shan called out excitedly: "Xiao Mengqian!" While calling, she walked towards this side with one foot deep and one light foot, Xiao Mengqian looked at her with distress, Hastily stepped forward to support Fang Shan, but her eyes were also red along with Fang Shan
The window on the balcony has long been closed, and Xiao Mengqian is the only one at home. There are milk and unpacked bread bags next to the microwave oven in the kitchen, and I eat these again... Xiao Mengqian shook her head helplessly, but she doesn't want to move now. Put the milk bread in the microwave and heat it up.
It was raining heavily outside the window, Cheng Yinuo should have gotten up early to go to the company, Xiao Mengqian drank milk and carefully recalled what happened last night.
Xiao Mengqian vaguely remembered what Cheng Yinuo said, but she was also very uncomfortable at the time. After seeing Cheng Yinuo vomit, she endured and endured so that she did not vomit. What did she say?
But Xiao Mengqian didn't want to call and ask, so let's wait for her to come back, otherwise Yi Nuo probably won't remember what he said.
Living in a foreign country for these years, Xiao Mengqian has long been accustomed to a certain sense of loneliness.
Even though the outside world talked a lot about Mr. He, the only apprentice, Xiao Mengqian also set up an easel on the balcony according to her own habit at this time. Xiao Mengqian actually likes listening to the rain.
Whether it's heavy rain or continuous drizzle, the sound of rain will calm her heart, but it's still an excuse that she hasn't calmed down after drinking too much, Xiao Mengqian looks at the sky outside and draws a sketch.
Although the lines in the pen continued to extend, it was visible to the naked eye that Xiao Mengqian was distracted, and what the sound of the rain brought was no longer inner peace, but inner memories.
But after a while, Xiao Mengqian realized something, put down the brush, and called Mu Yunbian.
With Mu Yunbian's drinking capacity, she wouldn't have woken up at all if it wasn't for Xiao Mengqian's phone call, but Mu Yunbian, who was originally dazed, woke up after Xiao Mengqian said a word.
"Mumu? Fangfang, her, return, okay?"
The memories of running away from the toilet yesterday finally caught up at this time. Xiao Mengqian squatted on the ground and curled up into a ball. She felt a little cold. There was silence on the phone for a few seconds before Mu Yunbian said:
"She, she is very good, really good. Mr. He told her about your experiences over the years."
"You tell me about her, you know?"
Mu Yun heard the expectation and worry in Xiao Mengqian's hasty words.
"I know, from, let's start from that day." Mu Yun tried hard to remember.
……
"She really worked hard, all, all opened a branch, it's great..."
"Sister, you..." Mu Yun changed his voice when he heard the crying on the phone: "You, cry if you want."
"Don't cry, don't cry." Xiao Mengqian coaxed herself, touched her tears and said, "I'm so happy that she, can, can live. In this way, I... I can let go of some..."
What Mu Yunbian didn't know was that Ji Hefang seldom went to the head office to work now. Although the branch office was not big, the height of the eight-story building was enough for Ji Hefang to watch the students from Ruoshui Middle School across the street from the office. come and go.
When Cheng Yinuo came home from get off work at night and saw Xiao Mengqian's eyes red and swollen coming out of the kitchen, Cheng Yinuo guessed that it was probably related to Ji Hefang.
Cheng Yinuo, who was thinking of asking something, heard Xiao Mengqian handing her chopsticks and saying:
"I'm fine. I asked Mumu about Fangfang's situation. I knew she was doing well, so I was relieved."
Even though there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, she could still feel that Xiao Mengqian was not happy in the tone that gradually dropped at the end.
"Why are you drinking again?" Xiao Mengqian said and was going to get the wine glass in Cheng Yinuo's hand.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Mengqian noticed the loneliness on Cheng Yinuo's face, but because of this delay, Cheng Yinuo simply drank from the bottle instead of the cup.
"What's the matter with you?!" Xiao Mengqian snatched the wine from her hand, but saw Cheng Yinuo's eyes with just drunkenness and a somewhat inexplicable expression: "I like you. , can you say whatever you want?"
Cheng Yinuo suddenly turned around and looked at Xiao Mengqian seriously, and said word by word: "Xiao, Meng, Qian. I, love, you."
After finishing speaking, even when Cheng Yinuo reached out to take the wine and glass in Xiao Mengqian's hand, Xiao Mengqian still stared blankly at her. A flash of light and a hesitant struggle.
"You, just think I drank too much." Cheng Yinuo drank another glass of wine and pulled Xiao Mengqian to sit down.
"I, I can't give you an answer now, I owe you too much, I, I..." Xiao Mengqian sat on the chair and turned her head away.
"Xiao Mengqian, I like you not because you are worthy of my liking, but because you are worthy. What's more, I didn't plan to... I got your consent today because, because I saw you meeting Ji Hefang, I'm afraid of you leaving, I'm afraid..."
"You, let me think about it, don't cry, why did you cry when you told me you liked it? Don't cry, let's eat first, shall we?" Xiao Mengqian hugged Yinuo during the process, but the moment she hugged her , Xiao Mengqian suddenly felt her heart tremble, and then continued to change the topic stiffly:
"I made your favorite shrimp, eat it first, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
Late at night, in two rooms, two insomniacs, when the two insomniacs were looking at the ceiling and thinking about something, on the other side of Lingtong City, Chi Muyan was stroking Yi Qinghan's hair while listening to Mu Yun Talk about what happened today.
"I told my sister very early that she likes Mengqian, and I neither support nor oppose it, but I am really sad about their appearance."
"Today, Mengqian told me that she knew that Ji Hefang was doing well, so she let go of it..."
"Do you believe it?" Chi Muyan interrupted her.
Before Mu Yun could answer, Chi Muyan continued: "I don't believe in letting go of such words, some words and some things, if you hide too much, you won't be able to hide it."
"Huh? What's the matter?" Chi Muyan saw Mu Yun staring at the phone screen in a daze.
"My sister confessed to Meng Qian." Mu Yunbian said in shock.
Chi Muyan didn't feel surprised, but the movement of her hands still stopped, making Yi Qinghan, who was pillowed on her lap, groan.
"Well, a sense of crisis." Chi Muyan said.
"I asked her how she was, but she hasn't answered me yet." Mu Yunbian said.
"No, she did her best to tell you."
"Then what's the matter with them, it's really not good, I'll take Meng Qian to live in my house, she has no place to live here."
"No, Xiao Mengqian is in a mess now, don't worry."
"No, I'm in a hurry, I'm not worried about my sister, I'm afraid something will happen to Meng Qian again!"
Chi Muyan grabbed Mu Yunbian's sleeve and said, "Wait until tomorrow, go to bed."
Seeing Chi Muyan's calm face, and there was still no reply in the chat box, Mu Yun sighed and said good night.
After Mu Yun got up and went back to the room, Chi Muyan picked up Yi Qinghan and went back to their room. After putting Yi Qinghan gently on the bed and covering her with the quilt, Chi Muyan kissed Yi Qinghan's forehead: "You really will take advantage."
Yi Qinghan opened his eyes and said, "What are you making my Mumu look like? What's wrong with taking advantage, I want to take it now!" After speaking, he turned over and was about to press him down, but Chi Muyan pushed him back, She raised her two hands above her head and pressed them firmly: "There is still business, don't make trouble."
Yi Qinghan groaned again before saying, "One is done."
Chi Muyan nodded.
Mu Yunbian didn't know why he had to wait until tomorrow, but Chi Muyan and Yi Qinghan could see clearly in the task lists of their respective systems, helping Mu Yunbian today, helping Cheng Yinuo tomorrow, helping Xiao Mengqian the day after tomorrow, the task rewards :big baby.
Looking at the three words "big baby", Yi Qinghan recalled many bad memories.
"Sleep, don't make trouble tonight." Chi Muyan kissed her forehead again.
Xiao Mengqian didn't sleep all night, and when she got up early and heard Cheng Yinuo's going out, she relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.
However, Cheng Yinuo, who was out of the house, didn't go to work. He drove to Chi Muyan's house. As soon as he opened the door, Mu Yunbian greeted him: "Sister? Are you okay? How is Meng Qian?" ?”
"I, I'm fine, Meng Qian is still sleeping." Cheng Yinuo actually didn't know what to say, she just wanted to chat with her own sister, but she never thought that Mu Yunbian stayed at Chi Muyan's house for two days, And at this time Chi Muyan was also at home, sitting on the balcony reading a book.
Thinking of the conversation with Chi Muyan last time, Cheng Yinuo felt that it would be good to have one more person to discuss this matter. When she passed by Mengqian's door today, she felt that the air was full of embarrassment and silence.
"It's a good thing to have a sense of crisis, it shows that she is very important to you." Chi Muyan said after listening to the detailed process of yesterday's confession.
"I think it's a tactful refusal if someone says something that I can't give you an answer to, but Mengqian..." Mu Yun looked at Chi Muyan while talking.
Chi Muyan nodded: "That girl's words mean that you really still have a chance."
"Although it's a bit abrupt, Xiao Mengqian won't leave until I've dealt with your reply."
"Mengqian, will she leave after rejecting me?" Cheng Yinuo regretted yesterday's impulsiveness, and his voice trembled.
"That's not what I mean, I'm just saying that this matter is very abrupt, forget it, let me explain in detail." Chi Muyan put down the book and said:
"For so many years, what has trapped Xiao Mengqian is not all kinds of knots in the past, but a very simple knot in the heart. Even Xiao Mengqian only knows that there is another hurdle in her heart that she can't get over, but you have to let Xiao Mengqian She said that she may not know what happened to trip her up."
"What I thought at the beginning was that before you untie this knot, you don't want to confess. When a friend helps her, takes care of her, and keeps her company, when she untangles her heart one day and opens her heart, you You can be the first to live in."
"But it's not impossible for you to do this." Chi Muyan saw Cheng Yinuo's eyes light up as soon as he changed the subject: "At least, your words can make Xiao Mengqian himself clearly aware of this knot in his heart. The existence of you is a trouble that needs to be resolved, according to the original plan, it will take a lot of effort for you to untie this knot."
Chi Muyan was not used to talking a lot. Seeing Cheng Yinuo's fighting spirit rekindled in Cheng Yinuo's eyes, Chi Muyan put down the chair and covered his face with the book. not my business.
Just now when she closed her eyes, Chi Muyan suddenly realized, didn't she say what to do next?Forget it, let them think about it, Chi Muyan glanced at the task bar, and went to sleep more at ease after seeing that today's task was completed.
In fact, there is no good solution for the next step. Mu Yunbian and Cheng Yinuo carefully considered it for a long time, and finally decided that it is safest to wait and see what happens. It's just that Cheng Yinuo's way of treating Xiao Mengqian can be more "radical". The original words are, do something to show that you love her, don't hold back.
On the third day, Chi Muyan, who had been busy all night, was still in good spirits. After tucking Yi Qinghan in the quilt, he got up and went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Chi Muyan who came out with breakfast saw Mu Yun with dark eyes. He sat on the sofa and looked at her resentfully.
Chi Muyan was very confused, wouldn't the matter be resolved today?Why can't I sleep well?
While eating, Mu Yun began to look at himself, Chi Muyan hesitated and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Your house, the sound quality is quite good at night..."
Chi Muyan: "..."
Repenting a bit of Chi Muyan's decision, she called Xiao Mengqian over after dinner.
At noon, Chi Muyan saw Xiao Mengqian. The girl with long hair reaching her waist was very neatly dressed, her face was very artistic, and her clothes were also very artistic. This was Chi Muyan's evaluation.
"Sister, is it about... Cheng Yinuo?" Xiao Mengqian asked.
"Yes, not all." Chi Muyan looked at Xiao Mengqian who was wearing a long white dress and said, "Do you know where your knot is now?"
Sure enough, Chi Muyan watched Xiao Mengqian ponder for a long time, then nodded and said: "Mengqian, why not go out for a walk, life in a foreign country makes you get used to loneliness, and long-term knots make you forget your original So many memories, so many places I want to go, the world is still so big, it may be another city full of traffic, or it may be the gurgling mountain stream. It is a small shop on the corner that has been open for many years. You smiled, it was you who went to the mountains to see the ringing of the temple bells, the solemn Buddha statues, there are always such subtleties that let you find yourself. If not, I found it.”
Looking at Mu Yunbian and Xiao Mengqian who were listening seriously, Chi Muyan closed the book: "After reading this paragraph, don't be in a daze, go have lunch with Mumu, go home and sleep, think about it."
"Go out for a walk?" Xiao Mengqian suddenly felt that she had really limited her life, even in country D, in fact, most of the time, she did the same thing every day...
It was Mu Yun who said, "Master, I have realized."
Chi Muyan looked at Mu Yunbian speechlessly, before leaving, Mu Yunbian turned his head and said: "Master, pay attention to your body!"
If it wasn't for Xiao Mengqian who had understood a little bit, Mu Yunbian would have been dragged back and beaten by Chi Muyan.
After the two left, Chi Muyan returned to the reclining chair, and continued to read the Chinese medicine books she had memorized by heart until noon, when Yi Qinghan, who woke up from hunger, left the room as if his waist had been stabbed.
Chi Muyan moved away from the book and looked up to find Yi Qinghan looking at him with resentment.
"what happened?"
The resentful Yi Qinghan said in an even more resentful whisper: "Is there anything that dissatisfies you, and I want you to come here after one night and solve it yourself?"
"Huh?" Chi Muyan raised her eyebrows in confusion.
Following Yi Qinghan's gaze, Chi Muyan saw the big baby who was quietly lying beside her lap, and was given to her after completing the mission.
While eating, Mu Yun asked, "Sister, do you have any plans?"
Xiao Mengqian felt that even if she was listening to the same set of words that the master often said, she had indeed noticed the problem. After realizing that there was a solution to the problem, Xiao Mengqian felt a lot more relaxed.
"I didn't think about it. Let's talk about it. Compared with this, I am actually more confused about another thing."
"What's the matter?" Mu Yunbian leaned over.
"How can you be a good apprentice."
Mu Yunbian: "..."
In fact, her master He Lao didn't think about this problem well, because according to He Lao's initial idea, the healing that this painting exhibition and this ceremony brought to Xiao Mengqian was higher than the status of master and apprentice.
After drawing and sighing for three days, Mr. He thought for a while and felt that he couldn’t let his precious apprentice be freed like this. After thinking about it for another afternoon, Mr. He probably drew up a plan for Xiao Mengqian to fully understand his school. However, these three days of sighing, in fact, four days have passed since Cheng Yinuo confessed his love.
After Mr. He had figured out how to teach his precious apprentice, what he was waiting for was a call from Cheng Yinuo.
"Grandpa! Meng Qian is gone!"
When Cheng Yinuo came home at night and saw that the kitchen hadn't turned on the light, she thought that Mengqian must have something to cook, and she would do it if she had nothing to do. She cooked for Mengqian. The door of the shallow dream.
It's been a long time since there was any movement inside, Cheng Yinuo suddenly panicked, opened the door and found that the room was completely cleaned up, nothing about Xiao Mengqian was left, Cheng Yinuo cried at that time, trembling Xiao Mengqian made a phone call and looked for Xiao Mengqian from room to room. When she arrived in the living room, she found that there was an extra painting on the cabinet in the living room, and there was a line of small words on it: I am traveling far away!I'll give you an answer in a while, there's a lot of food in the refrigerator, no takeaway, no coffee!
Who cares if you can't go far away, Cheng Yinuo panicked even more, and the worry and fear that Xiao Mengqian would leave all the time spread, until after calling Mu Yunbian, Mu Yunbian comforted her for a long time and said that Mengqian Cheng Yinuo only slowly stopped trembling after going out for a long trip to untie his knots.
Anxiously calling Lao Zhu and Lin Yang to find Xiao Mengqian, Mr. He received a call from Mu Yunbian. After Mu Yunbian explained, Mr. He pressed his heart. After all, he was young, so he left as soon as he said it. Send me away too...
Just after hanging up Mu Yunbian's phone call, Cheng Yinuo called again.
"Grandpa! Nuonuo is gone too!"
Mr. He, who was stunned for a second before he realized it, simply sat on a chair and rested. He is old and needs to exercise his heart, whether it is good or bad...
"Old Zhu, go and inform Mr. Song, let her come to work tomorrow, hey... young people nowadays..."
The reason why Xiao Mengqian forgot to tell others was that when she decided where to go for the first stop, she was so excited that she simply forgot.
When Xiao Mengqian woke up in the hotel the next day and realized the problem, Mr. He was already, it didn't matter...
There is no definite itinerary, just go there with your mobile phone and go there if you think it is fun, no matter how many days you play, Xiao Mengqian, who is racing on the international metropolis track on the east coast at this time, didn't think so much, followed a curve Dodging a corner, Xiao Mengqian, who was soaring with adrenaline, couldn't possibly notice that screaming girl in the auditorium.
We have also been to international metropolises, so I won’t go shopping here. I heard that in the southern town of Jiangnan, there are snacks that have been passed down for hundreds of years, and there are also clothes made by Suzhou embroidery masters for several years. When Xiao Mengqian turned around and looked at the race track , I can't wait to drive the car inside to the small town in the south of the Yangtze River.
She has thought a lot and worried a lot, but now, she is sitting in this quaint little shop in the south of the Yangtze River drinking the iced sour plum soup in that lotus-colored skirt that she might not be willing to buy because of the price. Heartless little girl.
However, on the second floor of the inn across the path, Cheng Yinuo took a camera to freeze the picture of Xiao Mengqian giggling in the air.
Looking at the photos in the camera, Cheng Yinuo smiled softly. With these memories, even if you really refuse, it's okay.
Putting the camera aside and speaking with a pen, it was a song she wrote for her.
Seeing Xiao Mengqian waving her fan and going to the next store step by step, Cheng Yinuo looked at Xiao Mengqian with tenderness in his eyes.
But soon, Cheng Yinuo found that something was wrong. This little girl named Xiao Mengqian, could she run a little bit? These days, she followed her all the way south, sometimes going to a certain place of interest, sometimes Going to a place to simply eat local delicacies, it was not until a certain coastal city in the southeast, under a coconut tree on a small island, that Cheng Yinuo saw several fresh paintings next to the easel set up by Xiao Mengqian.
Looking at Xiao Mengqian who was serious about painting and the hot weather on the island, Cheng Yinuo turned to look at the little boy who just served him coconut juice.
"Sister, are you selling this painting?" The little boy walked up to Xiao Mengqian with a frozen coconut in his arms and asked.
"Huh?" Xiao Mengqian, who was painting, looked down and squatted down after seeing a cute little boy, "This painting is not for sale, but..."
But before he finished speaking, the little boy took his iced coconut and handed it to Xiao Mengqian: "Sister, can I exchange iced coconut with you? Our coconut is the best in Guangru City!"
"Well... But this painting is not good, can my sister draw another one for you?"
"Okay! I want to put on a Superman poss, is it okay?"
"Of course you can!"
"Great!"
Just when Cheng Yinuo was about to be tormented mad by the mosquitoes on the island, Cheng Yinuo, who was looking at the scenery on the second floor of a hotel, saw Xiao Mengqian, she!She came out in a swimsuit!
babble...
Cheng Yinuo heard herself making such a voice. She stood on the second floor and saw clearly. The little girl paddled lightly with her toes at first. For Xiao Mengqian, she had been to the beach before, but she really came to the beach to play. , for the first time.
After cautiously probing the rushing sea water, Cheng Yinuo saw that Xiao Mengqian swooped down in the sea water and then kicked and kicked like an octopus, sending himself into the sea, and then swam and swam. Cheng Yinuo, who saw Xiao Mengqian lying in the sea, really didn't hold back, he patted the table and laughed wantonly, while smiling, he didn't forget to turn on the camera, this time he won't take pictures, let's just video.
After stopping and stopping in several cities in the southeast, Xiao Mengqian took a plane and headed northwest all the way. On the green grassland, in a yurt, Cheng Yinuo held mutton skewers in his left hand and a camera in his right. The photo of Meng Qian riding a horse was taken.
In the photo, Xiao Mengqian has her long hair tied behind her head, black jeans trimmed the lines of her legs, and above, a tight-fitting blouse under the hollow linen gown, which outlines her figure and makes Meng Qian looks heroic, very chic.
And at night, under the boundless night sky of the grassland, the little person looks so insignificant, next time, next time you come, you must lie on the lawn with her and watch the stars, and Cheng Yinuo makes a wish to the night sky where shooting stars streak across.
The next day, Xiao Mengqian did something that Cheng Yinuo could never have imagined. She saw Xiao Mengqian running towards the flock of sheep with scissors like a dancing king zombie, and then saw several people pulling a sheep Xiao Mengqian came out, and Xiao Mengqian was gesturing aside with scissors. Xiao Mengqian, who didn't know where to start pruning, was poked by an uncle. Xiao Mengqian turned her head and saw that the uncle was holding a large razor. The shape seems to say:
"You don't work that well, get this."
"Is it good?"
"It works!"
After working for a day, Xiao Mengqian got his wish and ate roasted whole lamb at night. The huge bonfire illuminated the darkness of the grassland, and everyone sang songs around the bonfire. Watching the horses gallop past, the bold laughter even overwhelmed the singing crowd here.
After singing wildly and drinking heavily, and feeling refreshed physically and mentally, in the red light of the bonfire, Cheng Yinuo made a booing gesture, then picked up the sleeping Xiao Mengqian, and returned to her rented yurt. Reluctantly taking a picture of his sleeping face, he turned and left.
Further to the west, the grassland is gradually sparse and barren, the yellow sand begins to spread, and there are several ruins in the desert. In the afternoon before the arrival of a sandstorm, the dark sky that continues to spread in the distance gives people an overwhelming momentum, declaring the great power of nature. ruthless.
Even so, Xiao Mengqian also stared at the sandstorm in the distance and constantly changed his position, looking for the best angle to describe the ruins.
This is also the first time Cheng Yinuo feels that he is going to die. Although the center of the sandstorm is a certain distance away, even if he is in the "wall" surrounded by camels, the yellow sand filling his body and the whistling wind in his ears are still Let Cheng Yinuo's whole body go limp.
After the sandstorm was over, Cheng Yinuo jumped up and didn't have time to clean up the dust on his body, so he looked at Xiao Mengqian with the binoculars, and saw a sand dune slowly shaking, and suddenly a sand girl jumped out and whimpered.
With this whining, even the camel beside him couldn't stand it anymore, and spit at Xiao Mengqian.
Further to the west, cross the ancient river channel, and walk a few kilometers further, you will see the long river after the diversion. The beautiful scenery of the long river and the setting sun make the isolated city and ruins in the distance even more desolate.
Because it is close to the urban area, this ancient city wall is still being maintained. Along the creaking wooden planks all the way up, Xiao Mengqian climbed the city wall. While walking slowly, Cheng Yinuo climbed onto the city wall and played slowly with the Qiang flute borrowed from the herdsmen.
As the sky gradually darkened, Qiang flute blasted, camel bells melodious, Xiao Mengqian stepped into this city full of... Roast mutton, roast beef, roast kidney, and a lot of barbecues, watching Xiao Mengqian go from one store to another in the downtown area Momentarily, the corner of Cheng Yinuo's mouth twitched, forget it, eat more, this girl is a little out of shape after all these years, so eat more.
Xiao Mengqian, who was soaked by the aroma of barbecue, put away the smile on her face at the next stop.
It never snows in Luoze City in winter, but the cold feeling in memory spreads from the moment the plane landed, and...fortunately, Xiao Mengqian allowed those memories to spread, and the frosty memory collapsed her eyes .
Cheng Yinuo, who was walking behind, watched Xiao Mengqian walk slower and slower, and her heart became nervous unconsciously, until Xiao Mengqian stopped completely and looked out of the window, Cheng Yinuo wanted to rush over and hug her for a long, long time , Xiao Mengqian started to walk again, and Cheng Yinuo, who was relieved, came back to realize that he had already walked several meters forward.
However, unlike Cheng Yinuo's expectations, Xiao Mengqian did not leave the airport to go to the place where she lived before, or the place where Ji Hefang walked together, but directly transferred to the bus at the airport and went to the small county town.
After getting off the bus in the small county town, transfer to the bus and walk along the newly repaired Panshan Highway all the way to the deep mountains. After getting off the bus, Xiao Mengqian looked at the refurbished concrete roads around her very strangely. She didn't know much about this place. The familiar, newly built streets are completely inconsistent with Xiao Mengqian's memories of the early years. After constantly asking for directions and going wrong, it was only when the sky was dark that Xiao Mengqian found the tomb where her father had moved.
Weeds were overgrown in front of the tombstone, but a small area in front of the tomb was fairly clean, and there wasn't much dust on the tombstone.
It seems that someone is still taking care of it. Xiao Mengqian knelt in front of the tomb, cleared the weeds one by one, and then faced the photo of her father, no matter how cold and humid the mountain in winter, she knelt in front of the tomb and said A lot, a lot, while talking, while taking out a wet towel to wipe the dust on the tombstone.
Xiao Mengqian got up and left when the forest was silent. After she left, Cheng Yinuo came out from the gravekeeper's hut, took the flowers she bought, and gently placed them in front of Xiao Junzhu's tomb.
"Uncle, no matter what, I will take good care of her."
The shops along the street next to the high school, besides stationery and restaurants, coffee shops are extra popular. Xiao Mengqian knew that after coming to Luoze City, her mood would definitely fluctuate greatly.
I'm afraid I'm going to suffer from insomnia tonight, so I might as well drink some coffee and draw at night, thinking about it, I crossed the road and walked to the coffee shop.
When ordering coffee, Xiao Mengqian thought of one thing. She even told Cheng Yinuo not to drink coffee in the note, but now...
Just when Xiao Mengqian returned to the school gate with coffee and just stood still, Xiao Mengqian suddenly tightened her waist, and then heard a heart-piercing whisper: "Mengqian..."
Hearing this voice, Xiao Mengqian trembled all over, and turned around with unbelievable and excited eyes. Ji Hefang in her arms was crying uncontrollably, and there was no time to say anything. The only words whispered in her ears were the word Mengqian.
"Fang...Fang..." Calling the person in her arms, Xiao Mengqian's voice was hoarse, not sure if it was true or not, after wandering around for many years, they met here again...
They chatted for a long time, and Cheng Yinuo took a picture of this scene with trembling hands, but after putting down the camera, she suddenly lost the mood to follow. Cheng Yinuo only knew that the passing girls had handed them tissues , the two of them stayed at the gate of the high school until the end of self-study and class, and met the teacher who taught them at that time...
What Cheng Yinuo didn't know was that when Liu Ying and Du Wen asked how they were doing together, both of them were silent, and no one answered the question, but tears flowed down again.
Afterwards, she forgot Cheng Yinuo when she fell asleep that night, and she also forgot where Xiao Mengqian went in the end. She stayed on the bed in the hotel and looked at the records of her journey over and over again.
Crying for a while and laughing for a while, it seems that I am acting a play for my favorite, and the end of the play is the same as the end of the show.
Cheng Yinuo couldn't tell, she continued to follow Xiao Mengqian's steps out of the hotel, stopped at the entrance of the high school, bought coffee at that store and thought about whether to give up, when she turned around, she chose to hear the answer, but in a He froze when he looked up.
Ji Hefang, who was used to buying a cup of coffee before going to work, did not expect to meet Cheng Yinuo here. From Mu Yunbian's mouth, she knew Cheng Yinuo's love for Xiao Mengqian. The two looked at each other for a long time. Said softly: "Hello..."
After Ji Hefang replied hello, there was no more to say. What filled the air was not embarrassment, but words that didn't know where to start.
"She's gone." After Ji Hefang finished speaking, she saw panic in Cheng Yinuo's eyes.
"Where did she go?" There was panic in Cheng Yinuo's voice, she spent three days in the hotel in a daze, it was three days, she didn't stay that long, she just wanted to relax...
"She's going to the snow mountain." Ji Hefang said with inexplicable pride, because when Xiao Mengqian said that she was leaving tomorrow, she guessed that she was going to the snow mountain.
"I told you that there is a price." Ji Hefang saw the flickering light in Cheng Yinuo's eyes.
"Take good care of Mengqian...for the rest of my life..." Ji Hefang still had a proud smile on her lips, but she was actually taking good care of her for me. Such a good girl, how can I cry in front of Cheng Yinuo?
"You can't cry! Promise me to take good care of her! Cheng Yinuo! Your grandfather told me that your name means keeping your promise. Promise me! Cheng Yinuo!"
"I, I swear, I will take good care of Xiao Mengqian for the rest of my life."
Under the tree not far outside the coffee shop, the two fulfilled their lifetime agreement on a girl.
Even if there was a voice in her heart telling her that although Ji Hefang had already withdrawn, Cheng Yinuo looked at Ji Hefang who squatted down and cried loudly, but she didn't feel any joy in her heart. She knelt down and tried the tears on her face, and cried and said repeat to her He said the oath, and then held her in his arms.
Inside and outside the snow-capped mountains in the north, the guide signs of tourist attractions and resorts guided Xiao Mengqian to take the cable car to the village she had been away for many years.
The last time I came here, I could only rely on manpower and pack horses. See you again after many years. It has been an earth-shaking change. As the cable car continues to rise, you can see the village lying quietly in the rolling snow-capped mountains.
The sky is blue, rainy and snowy, and frost comes late.
I don't know if the village head named Yuan Jieyan is still there, and I don't know how the girl named Xue Linjian is now?
In the long memory, the cable car finally arrived at the end, although it was developed as a tourist attraction very well.
But the cold weather is really not something ordinary people can bear, so there are not as many tourists in Shuanglin Village as imagined.
But tourism must have driven the development of this village. The changes in the street layout alone are no longer what they were before. Xiao Mengqian couldn't recognize where Xue Linjian's home was, and even the village chief's office was gone. Walking down the path, you can only see...
I saw a group of children playing in the snow on the playground where the red flag was waving. The teaching building had already been renovated, and the classrooms were clean and tidy, and the sound of reading could be heard.
Xiao Mengqian hesitated and walked in the direction of the school. She didn't know whether Principal Fang Shan was still teaching here. Those children had grown up, so they would definitely not see them here. Under the current conditions, they should all go to the county school. Let's study here.
Walking into the school, the children all looked towards this side when they saw such strange faces walking in, but it was only a moment before the laughter continued.
The pine hut that was once used for cooking has long been replaced by bricks and tiles, and the mist on the windows shows the warmth of the interior.
Just after Xiao Mengqian walked through the hut, suddenly there was a creaking sound behind her, and through the door covered with thick cotton cloth, Xiao Mengqian heard an excited voice coming from inside.
It was only after waiting for a while that Fang Shan, whose legs were deformed and stiff due to the cold and exhaustion, opened the thick curtain and came out.
However, for more than ten years, Fang Shan's appearance has not changed much except for her legs. Seeing Xiao Mengqian, she first shouted hesitantly:
"Xiao Mengqian?"
Seeing the color in Xiao Mengqian's eyes, Fang Shan called out excitedly: "Xiao Mengqian!" While calling, she walked towards this side with one foot deep and one light foot, Xiao Mengqian looked at her with distress, Hastily stepped forward to support Fang Shan, but her eyes were also red along with Fang Shan
