631 Goodbye
Before dawn the next day, Xu Wen left No. 17 Zhudi Lane and went back to work at Ziyi Office.
Immediately afterwards, Xu San and the others also left one after another to return to service.
They were able to come back yesterday thanks to the fact that the father and daughter of the Lian family were here, and most of them were actually casually washed in the camp.
It didn't take long for Xu Wen's trustee to send a letter back, saying that he was not in Lvlin Town for the past few days, and he was going to the area of Tianyun Mountain to survey the reality.
This happened a little suddenly, Lian Lin Lin immediately got busy, made a bag of dry food for Xu Wen to take on the road to eat, thought about it, and went to get two sets of thicker clothes.
Outside is not as cold as in the city, even if he knows that Xu Wen has outstanding cold resistance, even Lin Lin doesn't want to see him freeze.
Dry food, clothes, medicines, and some things that are more convenient on the road. In the end, a huge burden was handed over to the person who came to carry it away, and even Lin Lin breathed a sigh of relief, he was already so tired that his head was covered with fine beads of sweat.
As a result, it didn't take long for the man to come back again, saying that he had already handed over the things to Xu Wen, and Xu Wen replied with a letter.
Xu Wen said in the letter that after he went out today, he was still thinking about the conversation with Lian Linlin last night.
He felt that what Lian Linlin said was too valuable, and she must have a lot of other things to say, he really wanted to see it, and hoped that Lian Linlin could write it to him.
He still remembers her performance on the banks of the Jinding River, and he believes that she will be able to.
Lian Linlin sat on the stone bench last night, facing the exceptionally clear sunlight after the rain, and smiled.
She went to get a pen and paper, and lay on the table to reply to Xu Wen.
When she first met Xu Wen, she didn't know a single big character, but now she has written extremely fluently, with beautiful handwriting and some hidden style, and she has practiced for a long time at a glance.
Of course, this is not entirely Xu Wen's teaching.
At the beginning, Xu Wen was busy studying, and later went out to take the apprenticeship exam, so he didn't have much leisure time.
When he was busy, Lian Tianqing began to teach his daughter without a match.
At the beginning, even Lin Lin was still a little angry, if it weren't for Xu Wen, she wouldn't have known that her father could read and break words, and his knowledge was still very good. And she has long begun to envy other children who can read.
Gradually, however, she seemed to see something and began to stop complaining about her father. Sometimes, on the contrary, she would walk up behind her father and lean against him with her forehead.
Usually at this time, Lian Tianqing would stop and be quiet for a while, and then turn her hand back and touch her hair, with a gentle gesture, just like she remembered.
Writing and writing, even Lin Lin suddenly stopped writing, raised his hand and touched his hair, and laughed for a while.
At this time, Lian Tianqing happened to come out, and when she saw her smile, her expression was a little puzzled.
However, he didn't ask anything, and only said to Lian Linlin: "I'll go out with Ke Ming in a while, and I won't come back at noon, so I don't have to cook our meal." ”
"Hey!" Lian Linlin replied dryly, "What about that night?"
"Will be back. ”
"Okay, I'll be ready, you and Uncle Wu don't have to be in a hurry, I'll keep warm when it's late, and make sure you can eat hot food when you come back!"
"Good work. ”
A smile appeared on Lian Tianqing's lips, and she was about to go to find Wu Keming, when she suddenly remembered something, walked over to Lian Linlin's side, and touched her hair.
The gesture was soft, just like she remembered.
Lian Lin Lin was stunned and looked up at him, just at this moment, Wu Keming came out of the room and called Lao Lian in a loud voice.
Lian Tianqing didn't speak again, nodded to her daughter, turned around to meet Wu Keming, and quickly went out with him.
There was only one person left in the courtyard, and the sound of bamboo next to him was bursting, and it seemed extremely quiet.
Lian Linlin smiled at the corner of his mouth, writing word by word, and his penmanship was obviously brisker than before.
When she was done, she stuffed the letter into an envelope, sealed it, and wondered who she would be looking to deliver it to.
She raised her head and saw a person sitting on the wall of the courtyard, looking at her condescendingly, I don't know how long she had been looking, it was the woman she had seen last time in Liuyu Garden, the woman named Yue Yunluo.
Yue Yunluo held her hand against the wall and sat relaxedly, the wind swept through her clothes, and her sleeves fluttered, like a Ling Immortal.
"Do you want someone to deliver a letter to Xu Wen?" Yue Yunluo asked, his voice was very light in the wind, but there was a sense of power, which would never be missed.
"Yes. ”
"He's already out of the city, and I'm afraid he won't be able to catch up if he doesn't send an envoy. ”
"Oh. ”
"But I can send someone to deliver it for you. ”
"Hmm, how do I know if you've delivered?"
"You can also receive a reply from him if you want to. ”
Yue Yunluo's tone was flat, as if this was something that could not be easier.
"What do you want?"
"You don't need anything, just talk to me like this when you have time. ”
"Hmm...... What do you want to talk about?"
"Anything goes. ”
"There are some things I don't want to say to outsiders. ”
“...... Whatever you want. ”
Lian Linlin tilted his head, thought for a while, stood up and walked to the wall, stretched out his hand to hand the letter to Yue Yunluo, and said, "That's okay, please." ”
"Hurry up and give it to Xu Wen. Yue Yunluo floated down the wall, and after a while, the voice came from outside, and after a sound, someone left in a hurry.
After a while, Yue Yunluo pushed the door into the courtyard and saw Lian Linlin coming over with a tray with tea and snacks on it.
"My self-brewed bamboo leaf tea, you can taste it, this is Jiangnan dim sum next to it, and I also made it, I don't know if it suits your taste. She smiled slightly, it was the etiquette of hospitality.
Yue Yunluo paused, drank tea, tasted dim sum, nodded and praised: "Very good, I like it very much." ”
Then the two of them sat opposite each other, and there was nothing to say.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, Lian Lin Lin was holding a cup and drinking tea, and he had nothing to say: "Where were you before you came to Ximo?"
"Do you know I'm not from the Desert?"
"Are you stupid for me? Do you have an accent and appearance, where do you look like a local?"
“...... Capital. ”
"How long will it take for the capital to come here?"
"I walked fast, it only took three days. ”
"Three days! How did you get here? We set off from Jiangnan, and it took us nearly a month!"
"Take the official road, hurry up the horse, and change the horse at the post station. ”
"In such a hurry, you must not have seen anything on the road. ”
"For example?"
"Whatever, you can, I haven't seen it. ”
Yue Yunluo didn't speak for a while, even Lin Lin was actually just thinking about the chat with Xu Wen last night, and said it casually, seeing the other party pause, he said understandingly: "It doesn't matter if you don't have it, it's ...... in such a short time."
Before her words fell, Yue Yunluo had already spoken: "It's true that there wasn't this time, but before, I have also traveled a lot of places, seen a lot of things, and many people. Do you want to hear it?"
"I want it!" Lian Linlin hurriedly said.
"Then tell me about the last time I came to the Western Desert. That was about nine years ago......"
Yue Yunluo said slowly, Lian Lin Lin held his cheeks and listened carefully, his expression was slightly strange.
In the evening, Lian Tianqing and Wu Keming returned from stepping on the moon, and Lian Linlin stepped forward to greet them, as always with a bright smile.
When Lian Tianqing saw her, his expression immediately became very soft, and he handed her something in his hand, which was a piece of rough-edged paper, and not long ago Lian Linlin told him that he had run out of paper for writing at home.
Even Tianqing is not short of money, but what she buys for her daughter has always been raw edge paper with better quality/higher cost performance, and she rarely uses good rice paper.
Lian Linlin took it with a smile, Lian Tianqing's eyes swept around, and asked casually, "Has anyone been here?"
"Yes. Lian Linlin said briskly, "A woman named Yue Yunluo, I guess she is probably ...... My mother?"
