In the jargon of the dyeing workshop, the tall wooden frame that controls the drying of cloth is called "balance", Du Heng is wearing a pine-colored short coat with a pink skirt, standing under the balance of rows of dried indigo silk, which is extraordinarily enchanting. Zhao Shinan looked at it, his eyes a little unable to move.

Du Heng turned his head and saw Zhao Shinan in a green shirt, standing and looking at her quietly, it turned out that he was silent and silent, and under the emotion of the breeze blowing the dried silk, his heart was pounding. Du Heng felt that his face was a little red, and he coughed lightly, relieving his embarrassment: "Looking at these, I remembered that when I was a child, my family was like this." ”

Zhao Shinan smiled faintly: "Really, what's it?"

"That's it," Du Heng gestured with a blushing face, "The rows of wooden shelves, like Caixia, are very beautiful." Du Heng is not wrong, the dyeing workshop dries beautiful silk, and it is indeed as the poem says, "The jar is dyed with thousands of brocades, and the five-colored clouds are fragrant on the shelf." ”

Du Heng sighed lightly: "But raw weaving is not as good as cooked weaving, no matter how good the silk is, it is not as good as brocade, and the drunken flower brocade in my home was also very good back then." "Raw weaving is like Zhao Shinan is now, weaving silk into white blank silk, and then dyeing it as a whole. Cooked weaving is to divide raw silk into warp and weft threads, dye them in different colors, and finally weave them into beautiful brocade.

Zhao Shinan's heart moved, he gently hooked his lips, and his thoughts drifted out: "Drunken Flower Brocade is very famous." ”

"yes. Du Heng sighed, "When Daddy was still there, the drunken flowers were bright and bright, and everyone who saw them said how it was so bright. After Daddy left, one of the brightening silks, my brother didn't know how to dye it. The drunken flower brocade is also lost. ”

"It's a pity I can't see it. Zhao Shinan frowned, now these dyed things are really not eye-catching.

"There are only a few boxes left, the second brother has made me a dowry, if you want to see it, you can still see it. A hint of cunning flashed in Du Heng's eyes, and when he saw Zhao Shinan's eyes brighten up, he deliberately dragged out his voice and said, "I just heard from my aunt that there is a lotus pond in the south of Gujiazhuang Village, I want to see it, but I -------"

This ghost girl, Zhao Shinan's heart moved, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise: "Don't worry, let's stay here for two or three days, and I'll take you there later." Don't run around yourself. ”

When Du Heng heard that he was going to live for two or three days, he was happy and nodded: "Don't run, don't run." I'll be honest. After that, he walked behind Zhao Shinan and muttered, "I will follow you from now on, not an inch." ”

Zhao Shinan's heart melted warmly, pursed his lips and smiled lightly as he strode forward. I secretly thought in my heart, if it is not good to dye it again, it is better to try to make a cooked brocade fabric as Du Heng said.

According to Zhao Shinan's instructions, the craftsmen of the dyeing workshop should start boiling materials according to the color matching of the recipe again. Zhao Shinan took the lead in worshiping the statue of the ancestor of the dyeing workshop, Mei Ge and the two immortals, and after worshipping, a new round of dyeing began.

Zhao Shinan stared at the process back and forth, and there was no difference in the pool, and when the ingredients were put into the cauldron to boil, they had to boil all night to color. The sun gradually went west, and a few sunsets floated in the sky, Zhao Shinan watched the last pot of ingredients boil, and then settled down. Looking at Du Heng, who was a little tired behind him, he asked, "Tired, why don't you go to see the lotus tomorrow?"

As soon as he mentioned looking at the lotus, Du Heng immediately became energetic: "Not tired, not tired, the time is just right." Looking at Du Heng's childlike appearance, Zhao Shinan felt itchy in his heart.

Gujiazhuang is a very small village, from the dyeing workshop to the lotus pond in the south of the village, it is only twenty minutes, the rice fields on the road are the scenery of flying egrets in desert paddy fields, and yellow orioles in the summer wood. Zhao Shinan walked slowly, Du Heng followed even slower, from time to time he saw that there was no one next to him, and he had to whisper to the egret, "Hey, fly over." Zhao Shinan strained his face, but he couldn't help but bend his eyebrows.

After crossing a small stone bridge, it is the lotus pond, a piece of lotus leaves, Du Heng couldn't take his eyes off it, and Zhao Shinan looked at Du Heng's appearance like a rabbit, and he couldn't take his eyes off it.

After a while, a small boat came from the depths of the lotus, a blue-clothed lotus picking girl about the same size as Du Heng, and she couldn't help but giggle when she saw the two people on the shore looking fascinated. I picked a lotus flower and threw two lotus canopies to Du Heng: "Take it and play with it." As he spoke, the boat slid into the depths of the lotus flower again.

Du Heng picked up the lotus flower, he was already at a loss for joy, and asked Zhao Shinan: "Is it good-looking?"

Zhao Shinan stared at Du Heng and said, "It's good-looking." ”

Du Heng raised his eyes, looked at Zhao Shinan's affectionate eyes, his heart jumped suddenly, and he said angrily: "I'm talking about flowers." ”

Zhao Shinan raised his eyebrows: "I'm talking about flowers, what do you think?"

"You-" Du Heng's mouth pursed, "boring." As he spoke, he went to tease the lotus again. Zhao Shinan lifted his clothes, sat on a bluestone next to the lotus pond, and simply watched Du Heng toss the lotus flowers for a while, and played with the lotus canopy for a while, and he was happy to see it.

It was getting dark, Zhao Shinan stood up and pulled up Du Heng, who was still wandering around: "Go back, it's not early." ”

"They said there were a lot of fireflies at night. Du Heng bit his lip a little reluctantly.

"Don't be too greedy. Zhao Shinan couldn't help but say, and dragged Du Heng back.

Du Heng was still chattering as he walked: "There really is, flashing fireflies, they must look good-------" But she chattered all the way, and Zhao Shinan was unmoved. The situation is unstable, the Revolutionary Party of the Northern Expeditionary Army is full of restless factors, and Zhao Shinan does not want to make any mistakes.

Back at the dyeing workshop, Du Heng was still thinking about the fireflies, and he took two bites of dinner casually. Zhao Shinan went to look at the cooking material again and prepare the grey silk.

The printing and dyeing factory has a small courtyard dedicated to Zhao Shinan to live in, which is simple but clean. Du Heng returned to the house and chatted with a few elderly aunts, but it was also boring, and one of them said: "That girl from the Zheng family should be back, about the same age as the young grandmother, I'll call her." ”

Du Heng nodded, people of the same age should be easy to talk to. Not long after, a girl in blue came in and saw Du Heng, both of them pursed their lips and smiled, it was the girl who gave her lotus flowers in the afternoon. "What a coincidence. Du Heng couldn't help sighing.

The girl in blue is called Zheng Xiaoyu, she is a cool person, and she doesn't recognize life, and Du Heng talks interesting things about Gujiazhuang, and Du Heng also tells her about the new things about the school and shop in the city. The older aunts happened to go back one after another, only two girls of the same age were chatting heartily, Du Heng had a pair of jade bracelets in his hand, picked one off and gave it to Xiaoyu: "See you for the first time, there is no meeting gift, don't be too old." If you get to Yangzhou City at any time, just come to me. ”

Zheng Xiaoyu didn't twist it, and took it generously: "I don't have anything good for you, just hide your this." Both of them giggled.

It wasn't early, Zheng Xiaoyu went home. Du Heng packed up the bed, looked at the room, and looked at the room, which was also inside and outside, and put his mind at ease, just one mile and one outside. The courtyard is located in the north of the printing and dyeing factory, the night is very quiet, Du Heng walked out of the house, the waning moon is like a hook, the night is cool like water, quiet like an ink.

Du Heng sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, looking at the moonlight on the heavenly steps, the stars and the stars, and secretly muttered that if he could see the fireflies, he would not regret it. Just thinking about it, suddenly the light green fluorescence in front of him flickered, Du Heng rubbed his eyes, and sure enough, it was a firefly one by one, which turned into a beautiful fluorescence map in front of him. The flowing fluorescence, a little bit of light green, Du Heng was about to cheer, and couldn't help but reach out to grab it, but he couldn't catch the dexterous light.

Du Heng turned around, Zhao Shinan just took the cloth bag, and looked at Du Heng with a smile: "Are you satisfied this time?"

"Where did you get that?" Du Heng's excited voice trembled, and the fireflies surrounded Du Heng and Zhao Shinan, everything was beautiful like a dream.

"A few uncles' children have nothing to do at night. Zhao Shinan replied calmly, but his heart was not calm. He saw that Du Heng was a little depressed because he didn't see the fireflies at night, so he told Uncle Gu to find someone to get some fireflies. Originally, he smiled for Bo Hongyan, but he didn't expect that the fluorescent sky was really so beautiful, and Du Heng, who was laughing in the fluorescence, was so beautiful. Clever smile, streamer. An inadvertent effort has achieved the eternity engraved in my mind for this life, and I don't want to forget it in this life and the next life.

"It's beautiful like a dream. Du Heng almost couldn't believe his eyes, and looked at Zhao Shinan with affection in his eyes.

And Zhao Shinan no longer wants to express it in words, in the ups and downs of his heart, he took Du Heng into his arms, leaned over and blocked Du Heng's lips, Du Heng began to feel numb from the beginning, only struggled slightly and then snuggled in Zhao Shinan's arms, this man didn't know when, he had taken root in her heart, maybe it was his care, maybe it was his strength, maybe it was his intentions------ she didn't know, and she didn't have the energy to think about it, but in his lingering, it melted softly. His kiss made her heart beat with an emotional gasp, and his hands had wrapped around his waist at some point.

Zhao Shinan was stunned, picked up Du Heng and returned to the house. That night, Du Heng was led by Zhao Shinan for the first time, from youth to emotion, her delicate softness, his affectionate intensity, in the fireflies in the sky, turned into a stunning beauty.

"Heng'er. "Where the emotion is, Zhao Shinan wanted to ask if she had him in her heart, but she was easy to be timid in the depths of her feelings, and she didn't ask in the end.

Du Heng's thin fingertips traced Zhao Shinan's broad back, and in a blur, he experienced the ultimate happiness, and at the moment of rushing to the top, Zhao Shinan couldn't help but roar Du Heng's name, he longed for Du Heng's mouth to also shout his name, and Du Heng just huddled tightly in Zhao Shinan's arms in the blooming blush on his face.

Early the next morning, Zhao Shinan looked at Du Heng in his arms, and the warmth that he had never felt before came to his heart, his woman completely belonged to him. Suddenly, the spring breeze became proud, gently put down Du Heng's hand on him, got dressed and went to the dyeing workshop to see the results of this dyeing.
