After the two finished eating, one person took an umbrella, and the gate of the hotel was an old street, the night rain was slightly blank, and the eaves were dripping. Paving has long been erected on both sides of the old street, brightly lit and crowded.

"Before and after the Qingming Festival, shouldn't we all go out to worship and remember our relatives? Why do I not feel depressed and sad during the Qingming Festival here, but feel more and more lively. Meng Ke and Yi Yang walked side by side on the street, and the warm yellow light reflected the old street in a simple and long way.

"Because this is a remote town, the industry and commerce in the town are not developed, and if you want to survive, people can only go out to work, so most of the people in the town are left-behind old people and children. And the remoteness is destined to be conservative and simple, the people in the town attach great importance to the inheritance, Qingming, Zhongyuan these sacrificial festivals, in their hearts, is second only to the Spring Festival. Therefore, as long as it is not a special situation, people who go out on these festivals will come back, and it is rare to reunite several times a year, of course, it is lively. Yi Yang explained to him, his voice was slow, and his tone was natural, like a traveler who shuttled through time, watched the flowers bloom and fall year after year, and Yan went to Honglai.

Meng Ke lowered her eyes, through the edge of the umbrella, saw her delicate face, unassuming and exquisite, like the blue and white of the ink pool, clean and indifferent, staying by her side will feel that the surroundings are quiet, time is very slow, you can hear the floating of a speck of dust, and you can see the blooming of a flower.

Meng Ke suddenly remembered a sentence he had seen before, "In this world, some people are born lonely. Because of loneliness, it is transparent, and because it is transparent, it is quiet. They hide the breaking ground of a seed in their hearts, and show you the bloom of a flower. You think they are the Sanskrit sounds on the rosette, but they are actually the bitter crossings in the red dust. ”

Meng Ke didn't know why he thought of this, but at this moment, Yi Yang gave him the feeling that this was it.

They passed by a place that sold oil-paper umbrellas, and the stalls made of simple wooden boards were full of colorful oil-paper umbrellas, and the snow-white oil-paper umbrellas were opened to admire, and the umbrella surface was a few strokes, outlining the rugged mountains, mountain streams and waterfalls were falling, the clouds and pines were straight, and the painting style was vigorous and cold, strong and chic.

"Do you two look at the umbrella?" Seeing Meng Ke's gaze sweeping from the umbrella surface, the boss's eyes were sharp, and he immediately greeted warmly with a smile, "These umbrellas are all handmade by ourselves." More than three years of sun-growing bamboo picked from more than ten miles away, the flexibility is much better than that of ordinary bamboo, and the umbrella surface is mounted with paper, with good ductility and guaranteed quality. The boss said, and in order to verify his words, he also pulled out a handful of umbrellas from a pile of lying umbrellas, opened and closed, closed and opened.

"Do you like it?" Yi Yang looked at Meng Ke.

"It's nice to look at. ”

"Then pick a handful and take it back as a souvenir. Yi Yang said generously, "I'll send you." ”

Meng Ke couldn't help laughing: "You know, when you say the three words "I'll send you", do you think of anything?"

"What comes to mind?"

Thinking of the broken bridge in the West Lake, seeing that it was going to rain, Xu Xian gave his umbrella to the white lady. ”

If Yi Yang remembers correctly, Xu Xian didn't send an umbrella, but lent an umbrella to Bai Suzhen!

As soon as the boss heard the conversation between the two, he estimated that it should be a couple, and received it very wittily: "This gentleman, don't say it, don't think it, you say it's really a bit similar, the same Qingming season, the same smoke and rain, the marriage between Xu and Bai started from the umbrella, if this girl gives you an umbrella today, maybe you can achieve another good story." If that's the case, then my umbrella shop will have a story to tell in the future. ”

Yi Yang: "......" business people will really say.

"Then I'll have to pick one. Meng Ke sang and harmonized with the boss, and really raised an umbrella on the stall.

"How about this, the painting on it is Su Shi's Phoenix Mountain, the rain is sunny at the beginning, the water and wind are clear, and the sunset is bright. A hibiscus, blooming over Shang Yingying. The boss took an umbrella, the umbrella surface was painted, the first sunny day after the rain, the mountains and rivers were beautiful, and a hibiscus was slim.

Meng Ke shook his head.

"What about this one, 'red beans grow in the south, and a few branches will be sent in spring'. ”

Meng Ke shook his head again.

"This one, 'The leaves are pale, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Iraqi people are on the water side. ’”

Meng Ke still shook his head.

……

The boss almost chose all the umbrellas for him, Meng Ke's reaction was still shaking his head, and the boss was not discouraged, so he let him choose whatever he wanted.

"What exactly do you like?" Yi Yang finally couldn't stand it anymore and asked.

"There's no specific style, just look at the right eye. Meng Ke replied casually.

Yi Yang raised his forehead, there is a kind of person in this world, if you ask him what he likes, he will say whatever, but when you really pick it for him, there are always only two answers, that is, I don't like this, I don't like that, Meng Ke is undoubtedly this kind of person.

"Otherwise, you can choose one for me. Didn't you say you wanted to give it to me, how could there be a gift, and people could choose it, there was no surprise at all. ”

Yi Yang: "......" can't be picked out by yourself, and it depends on others!

"That's it. Yi Yang pointed to the white oil-paper umbrella that was opened, "Plain and simple, the landscape is more suitable for you." ”

"I think that's good, too. Meng Ke laughed so much that the corners of his eyes were crooked.

Boss: "...... showed you this just now, why didn't I see you say yes! Sure enough, as long as a man is shameless, no one will take him!"

The boss packed the umbrella and handed it to Meng Ke, collected the money, and didn't forget to smile at Meng Ke when he left: "The two of you are really heartfelt, I wish you all a good story as soon as possible, and don't forget to invite me to a glass of wedding wine on that day." My shop has been open for more than 30 years, and it will always be here in the future, as long as you invite me, no matter how far away, my old party will definitely send blessings. ”

"Thank you, Boss Fang, let's add a WeChat friend. Meng Ke took out his mobile phone, and there was really a posture of inviting people to drink wine.

"Okay. Boss Fang smiled, also took out his mobile phone, and gave his WeChat business card to Meng Ke.

Yi Yang looked at two big men, a boss in his forties with a slightly fat figure, and a respected rising star in the medical field in his twenties, and just turned the business into a dating scene!

"Doctor Meng, may I ask a question?" The two said goodbye to Boss Fang, but Yi Yang really couldn't hold back.

"What's the problem?"

"How do you manage to be immobile and calm in any situation?"

"Yes, maybe it's a natural temperament that is outstanding and different!"

Yi Yang: "!!" this swells to explode with self-confidence and narcissism!

"You're done asking, can you ask me a question instead?" Meng Ke naturally staged a 'courtesy exchange'.

"Just ask. ”

"Have you ever given someone a gift before?"

Why are the questions he asked so difficult to answer, Yi Yang felt that if Meng Ke didn't want to be a doctor one day, he could change his career to become a college entrance examination proposition teacher, and he would definitely be able to easily reap the ruthless spurning of thousands of candidates!

Yi Yang: "Of course I did." ”

Meng Ke: "Then who did you give it to?"

Yi Yang: "What's the matter, this is to find out my past." ”

Meng Ke: "If I inquire, will you tell me?"

Yi Yang: "Of course not. ”

Meng Ke: "I think we've known each other for six years, but I don't know you well at all. When I knew you, you were seventeen years old, and I don't know anything about what your seventeen years of life was like. What were your grades in school, how many awards did you get, how many punishments did you get, were you a good student or a bad student, did anyone secretly write you a love letter, or did you ever write a love letter to someone else? I don't know. In the six years since I met you, where have you been, who have you met, how have you been? I don't know. Sometimes, I wonder, we've really known each other for six years?"

Yi Yang: "Isn't it good if it's not profound? When you don't know a person, you keep a trace of fantasy and expectation about her, like an opaque bottle, you will be curious about what is inside? On the contrary, if you know a person very well, then she may not be very attractive to you, isn't this the law we follow when we know things? You see, I haven't inquired about your past. ”

Meng Ke: "That's the truth. But I always feel that you don't inquire about my affairs because you don't care about me at all. ”

Yi Yang tilted his head to look at him: "Doctor Meng, can I think you are coquettish?"

Meng Ke: "You can also think that this is a man expressing his dissatisfaction with not getting enough attention to the person he likes. ”

Yi Yang: "......", "I remember that you weren't like this before, how cold you used to be, focusing on patients and medical records, ignoring others." ”

Meng Ke: "Look, you really don't know me. I ignore people because I don't have much interest in them, and too much communication will mislead people. And I have always been reluctant to let her suffer the slightest grievance for the person I like. ”

Yi Yang: "......", "Then you used to call me 'dumb'." ”

Meng Ke: "Weren't you a little mute at that time? I asked you to say nothing, and you didn't have any expressions, just like a puppet." I'm worried that if you can't think about it, you will do something extreme, change night shifts with other doctors every day, and keep watch in the middle of the night and you won't let you know. ”

Yi Yang was puzzled: "Why can't you let me know?"

Meng Ke: "I'm afraid you think I'm ...... to you Ill-intentioned. ”

Hearing this answer, Yi Yang really couldn't help laughing, "Then why are you telling me now?"

Meng Ke: "It's different now, I have ulterior motives for you, how many times have I confessed, can't I express my concern? And before going out, you said that among all people, you value me the most, in order to remind you to remember this sentence at all times, of course I have to ...... Positive performance. ”

Yi Yang: "After that, ......"

Before Yi Yang finished speaking, he looked up and saw Gu Ze standing not far in front of him, he was holding a black umbrella, standing in the rain, just staring at her like that, his eyes, sad?

Yi Yang felt that she must have seen it wrong. Gu Ze is such a firm person, he has no reason to favor people he likes, such as Zhao Qike, and he is indifferent to people he doesn't like, such as her. His emotions are always only partial and indifferent, how can he reveal such emotions!
