【Ghost White】When the grapes are ripe

Want to get to know a person rounding up is equal to being tempted (get out

Ghost Lantern was looking down at a document, and a few breezes came in from the half-opened window, bringing the chirping of midsummer cicadas and the refreshing fragrance of flowers.He looked up and saw the pot of flax flowers that had been randomly placed on the window sill since he took it back that day, growing vigorously in the bright sunshine. The flowers swayed in the wind, and the petals bloomed wantonly, revealing the goose-yellow stamens.

——Obviously I didn't take care of it, but it quickly caught up with the piece of snapdragon that I took care of in the backyard.

With a sudden thought, he got up and took the watering can to water the flowers.

From the window of his house, he could see the entrance of the community, so when he put down the watering can, he inadvertently saw the shopkeeper in front of the flower shop at the entrance of the community moving flowers out pot by pot. There is a small garden in front of the door.Today is full of sunshine, suitable for flowers to bask in the sun, but not suitable for people to work for a long time.He was not surprised to see that the shopkeeper had to hold his back for a while every time he moved out a pot of flowers, and the flower pots he moved were getting bigger and bigger. All heavy flowerpots are crushed.

After watching quietly for a while, he went out.

The moment I stepped out of the house, I could feel the heat wave rushing towards my face. From a distance, the owner's white clothes reflected dazzlingly.He was struggling to hold a large pot of peonies, the back of his white hands had prominent veins, his knuckles were red, he was struggling to walk, and his earrings were restlessly sweeping back and forth on his shoulders.Suddenly the other party stumbled, and the whole person swayed. Ghost Lamp rushed forward a few steps at a time, holding the flower pot firmly with one hand.The other party stabilized his center of gravity and tilted his head from behind the fiery peonies, obviously a little false alarm, his fair skin was slightly flushed, and there were fine beads of sweat on the tip of his nose.The owner of the store was also stunned for a moment when he saw him, his pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes blinked, and the vermilion tattoos on the tip of the eyes contrasted with the scorching flowers inexplicably, which was inexplicably confusing. Ghost Lantern took the heavy flower pot without any explanation, and moved it to put it with other flowers. "Is there any more?" "There are still a few pots..." The people who didn't understand the situation for a long time followed behind the ghost lamp into the flower shop, and saw that the other party lifted another big pot lightly, and then realized, "No need." I’ll do it myself! I’ll just move it myself!” But seeing Ghost Lamp’s relaxed face, he lifted up pot after pot effortlessly, and compared with how exhausted he was just now, the little bit of guilt disappeared. He disappeared without a trace, "How embarrassing..." Ghost Deng stood up straight with the last pot of monstera in his arms, and glanced at the person who had been chasing "I'm sorry" all the time——there was a gleam in his eyebrows and eyes. With a sly smile, the corners of his mouth are also bent, basically an expression of "please help me finish moving".

After the last potted flower was added to the "little garden" at the gate of the Bliss Full Moon, the ghost lamp patted the soil off his hands, and when he looked up, he could see colorful flowers blooming in full bloom under the bright sunshine. Shopkeeper, that white color is more eye-catching than other colorful colors.

The other party turned around, beckoned him to sit in the store, and placed a small pot of flax flowers in front of him.Gui Deng always felt that the other party would send flowers to bankruptcy one day, so he didn't reach out to take them.At this time, a white rabbit jumped out from behind the counter, sniffing the ground from time to time, and slowly reached the ghost lamp's feet.Gui Deng leaned down and hugged it into his arms. It felt that after a few days, the rabbit had become fatter. The comfortable touch of his hand softened his expression, "I didn't expect it to become fatter in just a few days." Some."

The shopkeeper stared at him in astonishment for a long time after hearing the words, and then showed a suddenly realized expression, "Ah! You were the one that day—"

Gui Deng had expected that the other party would not remember him at all, so he turned his gaze to the pot of flax flowers in front of him and said, "You have already sent a pot of flowers."

"You accept it." Knowing that the other party was someone who had helped him that day, the shopkeeper raised his pretty eyebrows and smiled lightly, "Thank you for your help, otherwise Jiezi and I don't know how long we would have stayed there. "

Ghost Lantern looked down at the white rabbit in his arms, and it also looked up at him with its nose flapping slightly, "Is it called Mustard Seed?"

"right."

……

There are new potted plants on the windowsill of his house-he finally accepted the pot of flax flowers.

He thought that their relationship was limited to these two pots of flax flowers. After all, the two of them were not from the same world at all, so he didn't expect to have a new intersection so soon.

He worked overtime until nearly ten o'clock in the evening. There were few people on the road leading to his house, and only a few small shops were still open.When he passed the small shop last time, his pace was slightly stagnant-this time the shop was not closed, and the middle-aged shopkeeper was reading the newspaper with reading glasses under the bright incandescent lamp.

It wasn't a rainy day, but I remembered the scene of the flower shop owner who was always dressed in white holding a rabbit and hiding here from the rain.He turned his head and continued walking.

But under the pale street lights not far ahead, he saw the person he remembered just now again, but this time the person was even more embarrassed than before.The ghost lamp approached him, and the strong smell of alcohol poured into his nostrils, making him frown.The other party held onto the lamppost with one hand, pinched his neck with the other, and retched, but didn't spit out anything.As soon as he tried to support him, the drunk man straightened up and staggered forward. The ghost lamp followed behind, watching him swaying every step, trying to fall several times but not falling.He went to the door of the full moon of bliss, fumbled in the pocket of his white coat, took out the key, and then poked it into the keyhole. Apparently his brain was drugged by alcohol, which made him lose his aim, and he failed to insert the key for a long time.The shopkeeper threw the key on the ground as if he was very angry, and sat down at the door of the shop, leaning against the wooden door for a while, and there was no movement.

Ghost Lantern raised the corners of his mouth silently, went to pick up the pathetic key that had been thrown on the ground, opened the door of the flower shop, and brought in the shopkeeper who was sleeping at the door with a big heart, and placed it in the room where he had sat in the morning. On the chair, the other party was still sleeping soundly while lying on the table obediently.He saw a few strands of hair on the side of the other's face hanging down to cover his eyes, and couldn't help but reach out and brush them aside, which allowed him to see clearly the locked brows of the other party.

Mustard Seed stuck its head out from between the flower pots following the light, and then shrank back.

I've seen this shopkeeper a lot, always smiling politely and distantly, but I've never seen such an expression.

He thought of the other party's usual smiles to women, of the other party's softly hugging the rabbit on the side of the road to hide from the rain and looked up at the sky in a daze, and thought of the other party's slender eyelashes slightly curled up with a faint invisible smile. I don't want to see my life disappearing before my eyes, but when I think of the other party's face, which is even paler than the pale light, I can't vomit while holding on to the pole.

——Obviously always smiling, but frowning after sleeping soundly; obviously treating many lives kindly, but abusing his own body; obviously studying Chinese medicine, but eventually opened a flower shop with a strange name like "Blissful Full Moon" .

Gui Deng felt that the other party was like a riddle, but he became interested in the answer.
