Jiang Xiangyang looked up at the twilight that had already darkened, and then turned his head to look at Wen Xun who was shivering beside him, and suddenly regretted that he took her to climb the mountain on a whim without looking at the weather forecast. Neither of them wore coats, and he wanted to take them off very gentlemanly to her, and she had nothing to take off.

"Let's go down. He took Wen Xun's hand as he spoke, "The same road we walked the way we came." There are a lot of trees on that road, and the rain is not heavy now, so it shouldn't be too long to be covered by trees. It's just that you have to be careful and don't get scratched again. ”

Wen Xun let out an "um" and obediently followed his footsteps.

It's easy to go up the mountain and hard to get down, especially when they are in a situation like today - it was sunny when they went up the mountain, and the two of them didn't say anything all the way, so it was naturally very fast. Suddenly it rained as they descended the mountain, and they were no longer silent, and they did not say a word, and their pace inevitably slowed down.

In fact, even if you don't speak, there is no way to speed up, and the road will become slippery when it rains, and if you fall, it will be too much to lose.

Thankfully, the trail wasn't too difficult, and they walked slowly down without slipping or falling. It was just that when they reached the foot of the mountain, the rain became heavier, and the heavy raindrops slapped down on them rapidly, and there were already gusts of white smoke in the distance because of the heavy rain.

They "discussed" with their eyes, and unanimously felt that the rain was too heavy, so it was better to find a place to shelter from the rain before leaving.

Jiang Xiangyang tried to identify the direction, and found a few small bungalows that he had passed by when he came—they were a few families who lived here, and he pulled Wen Xun to knock on the door of the house with the mentality of trying his luck, but no one came to open the door. They weren't surprised, after all, there were certainly not many people still living here today.

As they walked on, they tried to knock on the doors of several more houses. When I knocked on the fourth, the door finally opened.

It was an old man who came to open the door, and when he heard that they were coming to hide from the rain, he warmly pulled them into the house.

The furnishings in the house are very simple. An old mirror, an equally old wall clock, and the lamp above the room was not the usual white lamp, but a small dim yellow bulb, which was very suitable for this room and added a bit of warmth.

The old man went to pour a cup of hot water for Jiang Xiangyang and Wen Xun, and said in dialect, "This is the cup used to receive guests at home, it is very clean, you can drink it with confidence." It's just that there is only such a new cup at home, and it is inconvenient for the two of you to have a drink?"

Jiang Xiangyang nodded, and also replied in dialect, "Yes, grandpa, we are a couple." ”

Wen Xun smiled a little embarrassedly, took the water cup from Jiang Xiangyang's hand and took a small sip. The hot water entered the mouth, and the body quickly warmed up.

"Where did you come from?" asked the old man.

Jiang Xiangyang said where he and Wen Xun lived, and the old man said "oh", nodded and said, "It's not far, it's raining now, and the mountain road is not easy to walk." There's still a short way to go from here. ”

Wen Xun took two more sips of water, and then handed the cup to Jiang Xiangyang. Jiang Xiangyang saw that Wen Xun drank calmly, but he didn't expect the water to be hot, and after taking it, he took a big sip with confidence, and then was so scalded that he almost jumped up.

Wen Xun was amused by his appearance, "Drink hot water slowly and take small sips, are you pouring wine?"

The old man also smiled silently on the side. He said, "It's nice that no one usually comes to my hut, so it's rare to laugh." ”

"I see a lot of the houses in this neighborhood are empty. Wen Xun said, "Has everyone moved away?"

The old man nodded, "They were all taken to the city by their children." ”

Wen Xun thought that the grandfather in front of her should have some reason for not leaving, and she was afraid of causing him sadness, so she didn't continue to ask. But the old man seemed to be very willing to talk to them a little more, so he said, "If my grandson were still here, I guess he would be as old as you." ”

Wen Xun and Jiang Xiangyang glanced at each other, and they both heard the voice of his grandson's deceased. Wen Xun still didn't dare to ask, but Jiang Xiangyang asked in a chatty tone, "What about your other family members? ”

"My wife died very young, and I only have one daughter. She married in another city, and many years ago, she gave birth to a son. Later, my daughter and grandson were in a car accident together, and two lives were lost. Speaking of the sad past, the old man's voice trembled, "It's been many years, and I don't remember how many years." I only remember that the driver was drunk driving, and then I don't know what method they used, and he was not sentenced to a total of several years. ”

"And then you're back in City C?"

"Yes, that place is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, we little people don't dare to stay long. It's better to be here. It's better in the mountains, and it's best to see people in a place where you can't see people......"

The rain outside the window gradually stopped, and Jiang Xiangyang and Wen Xun were also afraid that their families would worry, so they didn't stay long, thanked the old man and said goodbye. The old man questioned that he put on his coat and put on his straw hat to send them to the foot of the mountain, and he said that the people he met because he was sheltering from the rain were destined people, so he should send them more and talk to them more.

After saying goodbye to the old man, Jiang Xiangyang and Wen Xun walked in the direction of home with their fingers interlocked, and the two were a little silent, just like when they came.

After a long time, Wen Xun asked Jiang Xiangyang, "Guess what I'm thinking?"

"You must be thinking about how to change the status quo, how to help people like the old grandfather who have been wronged. ”

Wen Xun hooked the corners of his mouth, "You know me very well." ”

Jiang Xiangyang nodded, "Yes." So guess what I'm thinking?"

Wen Xun thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "Same as I thought?"

"It's not. Jiang Xiangyang said, "I'm wondering if you will catch a cold when it's raining, and you have a little less to eat for dinner, so should I buy you some supper on the way." ”

Wen Xun looked at him a little surprised, "You're really thinking about this, you're not lying to me, are you?"

"I guess that's normal, okay, most people will be like me, it's you who are special. ”

"You mean I'm weird, huh?"

"It's not particularly strange, it's exceptional. ”

They walked side by side on the damp streets, and the air that had rained had a distinctive fragrance. The street lights sprinkled down from both sides, Wen Xun turned his head and saw the street lights falling into Jiang Xiangyang's eyes from the opposite side.

She stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of Jiang Xiangyang's mouth.

- I just suddenly wanted to do it, so I did it.

She thinks he's fine too.

That night, Wen Xun wrote in the small planet:

"Some people have bigger hearts, love themselves, love the people closest to them, and have some spare time to care about people who don't have deep intersections.

Some people's hearts are smaller, and they are full of only the dearest ones. These people may not be able to take care of the joys and sorrows of so many people, but as long as they do not do anything that is unfavorable to others, even if they only take care of the people around them, even if they only take care of themselves, no one can blame them.

Because whether it is big love or small love, it is warm and bright. As long as it is the person who holds them, they are all equally beautiful, regardless of whether they are high or low.

You are not selfish.

You are the best and loveliest. ”
