Chapter 251: The farther you go
Guiyang in May, the street at eleven o'clock, colorful under the neon lights, at the intersection of the back street of Huaguoyuan, she went to the left, he went to the right, no one had the courage to turn back, and kept his head down and silently walked ahead.
"You're back, why don't you wear so little and don't you have a coat?"
A familiar greeting came to her ears, and she looked up slightly, it turned out to be Jiang Hao, who was standing at the entrance of the stairwell downstairs in the bedroom, with his back against the somewhat old brick wall, as if he had been waiting here for a long time.
Tranquility just smiled slightly, the corners of her mouth moved slightly, and she whispered, "Why are you here?"
Seeing Jiang Hao's appearance, she seemed to be a little surprised, after all, it was so late, she didn't expect that there was still someone willing to wait for her here.
"Come, hurry, put your coat on, you see your arms are so cold. Jiang Hao had already taken off his coat when he spoke, and looked at her with a pampered look.
If he hadn't said it, she wouldn't have felt cold, and when she heard him say the word cold, she suddenly shivered, and muttered, "It's really cold!"
With the sound of "stepping" footsteps, Jiang Hao followed her to her dormitory, this was the first time he stepped here, although the house was not big, but it was very neat and clean, and it made people feel particularly warm under the hazy light.
The sofa in the living room may not have been sitting in a long time, there seems to be a thin layer of dust on it, the window is still wide open, and a cool breeze enters through the window from time to time.
"Come in the room and sit down, I basically didn't stay outside alone, plus I've been busy lately, and I haven't had time to clean. ”
Ning Jing sat on his bed in the room, looked at Jiang Hao, who was looking at the house outside, and said.
He smiled and walked into her room, which was a bunk bed with three beds, and if they were all occupied, it would take six people, which was also very lively.
"Sit casually, lift the stool yourself!"
Serenity spoke to him again, and she was holding her cup to the living room as she spoke.
A few minutes passed, and Jiang Hao was still wandering around the bedroom, and the unknown greenery on the windowsill caught his eye.
The dwarf one grows around the pot, and the aloe vera in the middle has long been surrounded by the green plants growing on the side, and a small leaf is constantly fluttering with the May wind outside.
He couldn't help but walk to the window, his eyes fixed on the unknown pot of plants in front of him.
"Hey, what are you doing, don't pick my flowers. He had just pulled out a small tree in his hand and was studying what it was, when he heard Tranquility running over with a loud shout.
"Why are you touching my things, with my consent?"
Looking at her very distressed look, Jiang Hao didn't understand it a little, he silently thought in his heart, isn't it just a small seedling, as for being so serious, it is just an unknown seedling.
He didn't say a word, just quietly looked at the small plant in his hand, as if he hadn't seen this thing yet, but what made her even more puzzled was why it was planted with aloe vera.
"You can sit casually, I'll wash my face first, you can find a place to play by yourself, but you can't turn on the TV." She instructed as she washed her face.
Jiang Hao didn't speak, but saw that she didn't use a towel to wash her face, and just took a selfie with water on her face with both hands.
He is now on the windowsill, looking at the few big trees erected downstairs, the leaves are still gently fluttering, occasionally one or two late returnees pass under the trees, the long shadow is illuminated by the street lamp, which makes people feel particularly lonely.
When Ning Jing, who had washed up, turned around and was about to say something, she suddenly froze, as if she saw that the expression of the person in front of her had changed slightly, unlike the person who was happy like honey on weekdays, at this moment she seemed to see a trace of sadness, and the whole expression revealed that she was so unhappy.
"Let's go, let's go and talk, it's a little cool by the window. ”
Tranquility was already sitting on her bed when she spoke, holding a layer of Bai Luomei's prose in her hand, with a few big black and black characters written on it, "All encounters in the world are reunions after a long absence".
Jiang Hao walked over to her slowly, the plant in his hand was still not willing to throw it away, and from time to time he was still playing with it in his hand, turning in circles, watching the leaves keep turning clockwise.
Suddenly, he was so quiet, so Tranquility was very unaccustomed, so she also paid attention to his every move from time to time, and she didn't even notice that she had taken the book in her hand down.
"What are you thinking?" Jiang Hao looked at her distracted, deliberately shook the small plant in his hand in front of her eyes, and said to her with a loud voice.
"I didn't think about anything, I wanted to ask you what you were thinking? I feel like you're very strange tonight, a little bit different from your usual you, it's just not right anyway. ”
She wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to start, and she didn't know what was wrong.
"I'm wondering what this is, why do you want to plant it in a pot with aloe vera?" Jiang Hao asked cautiously with his own questions.
"I didn't grow it, it grew on its own, but I suddenly found that I really liked it, you know?
Jiang Hao shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand everything she said.
She took out something usually black from the cupboard, a small one.
"Cassia?" Jiang Hao said with a very surprised look at the black thing in her hand.
She nodded slightly and did not answer Jiang Hao's words.
He was still holding the cassia seedling that had not yet grown up, and it turned out that the cassia seed that had been sold in the supermarket looked like this, and suddenly he felt that he was a frog at the bottom of the well.
"Those seedlings were not planted by me, and the liver fire was a bit heavy during this time, so I went to buy some cassia seeds and came back to soak in water to drink, these seedlings were soaked in high-temperature boiling water, and after drinking, I poured these in the quilt into the flower pot. It grows on its own, and now you know why I say it's tenacious. ”
Tranquility said as she wondered why she could still grow in a pot after soaking in the heat and drinking water.
"This is the intention to pick flowers and not bloom, and unintentionally to plant willows and willows!" Jiang Hao suddenly said with emotion.
Yes, the things in this world, the people in this world, often go farther and farther in their hearts, and what they don't have in their hearts, but they want to squeeze in.
