Repentance (love story) Zhang Baotong

Walking down the reservoir dam, the hillside reflects a dazzling colored light, and all kinds of chrysanthemums are delicately diffused in the gorgeous autumn colors, which makes people look at it at a glance and reflect their feelings. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info I put down my basket and backpack and couldn't help but pounce into the flowers, picked a large handful of flowers, and gave them to her. She took the bouquet and inhaled and smelled it excitedly, so that her laughter had the fragrance of a mountain flower.

"What do you say is the most amazing thing in the world?" I asked her with ulterior motives.

Although she knew my intentions, she made a simple and childish look and shook her head.

"It's love. I said out loud, I wish it had taken her back. However, she just pursed her lips and smiled knowingly.

I love the innocent smile she has and the way she answers questions. So, I asked, "What do you think is the probability that a man and a woman will meet on this earth?"

She still shook her head so brightly and gently, and her sun-drenched face reflected a charming red cloud.

"It's one in five billion. I said to her solemnly, emphatically, "That means the probability of us meeting is one in five billion." You can see how difficult it is. ”

She glanced at me affectionately, tried to say something but didn't, just nodded earnestly.

Turning over the mountains, the white houses on Shangguping are already in front of you. It's a very different scenario than I've seen before. Because I have the impression that there are only one or two dilapidated adobe houses here, I have heard that the people here are poorer and harder than we are. However, at present, the village is full of white, neat brick-to-top houses. Walking to the entrance of the village, Shuqin said, "After eating at my house first, I'll take you to see Xiuxiu." ”

I wanted to go to her house, so I said, "Okay." He followed her towards a newly built red brick house. As soon as you enter the house, you can smell the aroma of pine branches and rice. Shuqin took me to the kitchen to meet her mother. She said to her mother, "Mom, this is a comrade from the Culture and Education Bureau, and you should treat it well." ”

I really admire Shuqin's cleverness, because I don't want to reveal my identity here, which will save a lot of trouble.

My aunt looked at me and said, "After all, it's from the city, so handsome." "I'm a little embarrassed to say that.

Shuqin led me into her room. The room is simple and tidy, with two large maps on the wall and some famous pictures. Next to the bed was a half-worn writing desk with books and textbooks, a globe and a tape recorder. I pulled out a correspondence course from those books, flipped through it, and said, "Are you taking correspondence courses?"

"It's been two years. She said.

"What should I do when I'm done?"

"I'll go to undergraduate again. ”

"In that case, I'm afraid the village primary school won't be able to accommodate you. "Because undergraduate graduates can go to the county to teach high school.

"What's not enough to do then?" she smiled modestly.

I flipped through the books for a while, and a small, old dictionary caught my eye. I think this kind of dictionary is only used by elementary and junior high school students in the city. So, I took my thick Chinese Dictionary out of my backpack and gave it to her, saying, "You should have a decent reference book here." ”

She refused to accept it, saying, "It's too expensive." ”

I said, "This is a gift from the school to you as a souvenir." ”

She cherished the dictionary and flipped through the pages, "That's great." I've always wanted to buy it, but I didn't want to. ”

At this time, my aunt came and asked us to go to dinner. When we arrived in the kitchen, the table was already full of dishes, as well as fragrant bacon and half a bottle of liquor.

While eating, I said to my aunt, "Shuqin's belief is quite high, and he will definitely be very promising in the future." ”

The aunt said happily, "No, her aunt opened a clothing store in the city, and asked her to help, giving her 300 yuan a month, but she had to stay in the mountains to teach, and said that standing at the counter was useless, and teaching was a career." ”

I said, "Shuqin takes her career very seriously, and such a girl is rare now." ”

The aunt continued, "She is the busiest in our village all day long, teaching during the day, studying and preparing for classes late at night, and saying that if she doesn't do this, she will be further left behind by others, as if she is competing with someone all day long." I often say that she has a salary of 70 yuan a month, and it depends on how busy you are. But she never listened to me. ”

Shuqin stabbed her mother with her arm, and blamed her coquettishly, "Mom, don't talk about it, it's okay, you hang money all day long, and you're not afraid of making people laugh." ”

The aunt was unconvinced, "Who is not in it for money now?" But you don't study with this all day long, but compare your grades with that, what's the use?"

I said, "Only by contrasting can we have goals and improvements." ”

The aunt said in a praising tone, "Shuqin has only been teaching for two years, and the results of the unified examination of Honghualing Primary School are ranked first in the township. If she becomes a regular teacher, she will no longer be a rural private teacher, but a national public teacher. ”

After eating, we went into her room again. Shuqin looked at her watch and said, "I'll take you to see Xiuxiu?"

I thought about it for a moment and said, "I always feel that there are some things that I can't say when I go to meet people, why don't you go and explain them to her for me?"

"Okay. She pondered for a moment, then turned and walked out the door.

About half an hour later, she returned, her face gloomy.

"How's it going?" I asked anxiously.

"We'll talk about it on the road. She looked at her watch and carried the basket into my backpack with oranges.

I stopped her and said, "This is what your aunt brought to your parents." ”

But she didn't listen, and just stuffed it into my backpack until she couldn't fit it anymore.

After saying hello to my aunt, I started on the road, ready to catch the three-and-a-half hour shuttle bus back to the city by the highway bridge outside the mountain. Shuqin silently accompanied me. When I walked to Toudaoling, I asked, "What's her attitude?"

"She cried, and cried so badly. When she said this, her eyes were red.

This made me feel uneasy. I said, "She shouldn't be like this, she doesn't even know me." ”

She walked silently for a while, and said calmly, "She said that she went to see you every day during the short training period of the teacher's college, to see you reciting books on campus in the early morning, and to watch you read in the library in the evening. She has also read your group of poems published in the school magazine. She can still memorize those poems word for word. ”

I was stunned and said, "But why didn't she come to me?"

"She said you had a beautiful girl next to you, and she didn't have the courage to come near you. ”

I was speechless all the way, and a kind of melancholy and uneasy guilt rolled in my heart.

In the warm autumn of northern Hunan Province, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the wind is refreshing. There is a warm and rich green smell everywhere in the mountains. Walking through the high mountains, the outward expansion of the mountain suddenly became much brighter, and a silent path fell through the forest below.

"Shuqin, don't send it. I stopped and looked at her with attachment.

She smiled deliberately and easily, but there were tears in her eyes. This makes her eyes clearer and her appearance more handsome. I took her hand and silently conveyed a reluctant relationship. In the distance, the startle of the thrush and the chirping of the oriole could be heard incessantly.

She blinked her melancholy long eyelashes, and her eyes were faintly blurred with a kind of grief and sadness, which made people look at it, and couldn't help but breed a deep love.

"Take this," a teardrop fell from her adorable eyes as she handed me a sealed envelope. As soon as I had taken the envelope, she turned and ran towards the path in the woods at the top of the hill. The bright sunlight flashed her dancing figure. An autumn rain and flower-like emotion permeated my heart. I know that the girls in the mountains are very affectionate. She couldn't bear to be separated from me. She ran to the top of the hill and stopped, waved at me through the woods, and then disappeared into the shadows of the forest like in a dream.

I opened the envelope, and it contained fifty dollars, and a letter. The letter reads: Wen Qing, it was really unexpected to meet you today. Please bring this money, you can't have it in the city. I wish you all the best!

My heart suddenly trembled, and I felt that I was holding an innocent and beautiful heart in my hand.

"Xiuxiu—", I called out to the woods that had hidden Xiuxiu's figure. However, what answered me was the boundless emptiness and silence.

I stood at the junction of the mountain, looking at the woods on the mountain for a long time, and felt that the mountains, fertile fields and woods in front of me were constantly spinning, and my heart felt as if I had just woken up from a dream. I hesitated for a moment, then walked down the mountain. At the foot of the mountain is the thousand-year-old Luojiang River. The afternoon sun shines on the river, and the scenery on the shore is charming. My heart brightened up at once: Ah, my hometown is so beautiful.
