Chapter 64: A Handful of Acacia Seeds

The white clouds and dogs, the twilight waning moon in the glitz, are no softer than the watery years. It's rare to see a cat as free and easy as me, and I feel very satisfied after eating.

Yes, it is best to live a comfortable life, regardless of the disputes and hatreds of the outside world......

This gentleman is not a man who can't stand the comfort, and before he has enjoyed a few days of eating and drinking, he shouts and leaves. Wan Niang's heart sprouted in spring, and she was poured cold water by this person.

However, the gentleman's words were very earnest, bowing his head and speaking lightly, as if he was whispering.

"Although I am a sloppy man, I ......"

"I can't get used to seeing my family and country humiliated, so I ...... I still have to do my best......"

He was intermittent, and his words in one breath were mixed with mixed feelings.

Wan Niang nodded very sensibly.

The evening glow shone golden, and the mountains in the distance were rolling and undulating, and the shallow grass covered with wet dew under his feet was covered with a faint light. Under the weeping willow trees are shadows, mixed with shadows.

Half of the gentleman's face is also immersed in the dusk and yellow glow, and his temperament is soft. He put the red bean cake he had eaten back on the plate, and pinched Wan Niang's delicate hands, as if to soothe.

"I want to marry you, but ......"

"But I think it's better to wait for the outside to settle down, and starting a family will eventually be after serving the country. ”

He pinched the corners of Wan Niang's mouth.

"I won't fail your ......"

I sound like in the playbook, the scholar who rushed to take the exam had a friendship with the girl, and swore that he would carry a sedan chair to marry if he won the move.

Could it be that this gentleman is actually disgusted with the red bean cakes made by Wan Niang, and the food is not delicious, and he wants to run away early to get rid of this marriage......

I shrunk my cat, thinking about it in horror.

A few days later, my husband told his father and mother about the idea of joining the army again. His father and mother disagreed at first, and lamented: "My son's life has been pulled back from the ghost road, if I don't go back, what do I want my father and mother to do." ”

Nothing is more important than life, but some people put their lives last compared to certain emotions and certain yearnings. It is not possible to judge right by wrong.

People are not grass, trees and stones, and his father and mother are not people who don't know feelings, so they followed him with tears in their eyes.

On that day, the sky was extremely clear, there was no wind or rain, and the road ahead must have been very smooth. Thinking about coming here makes me feel more at peace.

He was dressed in a clean and refreshing cloth robe, which was different from the usual elegant robes.

"What else do you have to say to me. Wan Niang wrapped a bag of red bean cakes and handed them to him carefully.

"No ......" he seemed to want to say something, but he wanted to say goodbye.

"Every seven days, you send a letter back to let me know that you are all right......

"Hmm. ”

The back of the gentleman gradually faded away, and he looked back and saw that Wan Niang was still looking at him. The twilight fell into the evening setting, until he watched Wan Niang disappear into the vast greenery, until Wan Niang watched him disappear into the mist all over the mountains.

Wan Niang's mind is sad day by day, and it is true that Mr. has a position in his heart that is not comparable to me. I couldn't help but wonder to myself, what made this gentleman pry my only position in Wan Niang's heart.

I thought that this gentleman was idle and had to join any army, and this gentleman could be called the first person in ancient and modern times.

It's just that I'm narrow-eyed, and I don't know that people who are idle and hot grab a lot of them. The husbands of many women in the neighborhood couldn't sit still at home, so they went to the army with their luggage.

Isn't the food at home not delicious......

The red beans were harvested a lot, and the bright red round grains were eye-catching, and Wan Niang taught those girls who were going to marry to make red bean cakes. The red bean cake is red and soft, the entrance is greasy and the throat is greasy, and the lips and teeth are fragrant, but you need to pick the red beans without insect eyes and the body is moist, and then grind them day and night.

This red bean cake can be made by people of some ages, all of which are square or round, but the taste is very different, presumably everyone can't do the same. Some sugars are added too much, and what enters the throat is sweet, and it is so sweet that it will suffer from toothache.

Some add too much salt, and the saltiness in the mouth and teeth will reach the brain, so salty that the eyes will sweat......

I ate too much red bean cake, and I got tired of it, and I couldn't help but feel hot, and I wanted to jump up and catch a few fish to eat.

The first letter sent by my husband was full of words, and I thought it must be a piece of love words, and it made my cat face red when I thought about it. But who knows that it is written about big and small things in the army.

"There is a strict order in the army, so I have to eat red bean cake secretly......"

"Take 2,000 enemy troops, and celebrate the ...... with a bonfire in the camp"

I was a little disappointed with this uninteresting letter, but Wan Niang read it seven or eight times, thinking that she was looking for a typo, so that she could make fun of her husband to his face. This teacher is full of wealth, how can he make a typo.

The spring is hazy and long, the cow drizzle stirs the mind, the path in front of the house is wet and dry, and the pebbles that have been bathed many times are smooth and moist.

After that, the letters sent by Mr. were all boring things, and Wan Niang was very diligent in finding typos.

She sometimes hugged me and giggled at me, and I was helpless when I was about to drip. Presumably, the girls who fall in love are so stupid, not as sober and clever as me.

However, Wan Niang's smirk faded after a month. After finding three typos, she stopped looking for them. She must have given up knowing that she couldn't find a typo.

Later, I learned that after receiving the third letter, no fourth letter had arrived.

Seven days later, two more seven days passed, and the fourth letter was delayed. The war was chaotic, and it was normal for letters to be lost, and the soldiers in the army all sent letters home, and there were not many who could accurately get home......

No matter how much reasonable explanation there is, there is no panic in the heart, and only the fourth epistle can tell that everything is going well.

I can't help but think of my husband's third letter, which mentions at the end that there will be a surprise battle in the near future, and that many cities can be won after this victory......

In the third seven days, Wan Niang couldn't sit still, and she took me to the more well-informed county town to ask.

Mr.'s father and mother were also full of sadness, and after a few days and nights, the gray hair increased a lot. They comforted Wan Niang, and came back early if they couldn't ask for news, and they were bumpy and injured.

The smell of smoke and rain is thick, and the homing finches settle down early and do not toss again, thinking that there will be a whole day of heavy rain in a few days. Wan Niang hugged me and entered a few teahouses and a few listening buildings, with a lot of people and conversations, and there were so many things that could be heard.

But what I heard and asked was not important and useful.

In the teahouse, a few piano girls are invited to pluck the strings and make music, and the fragrance of the tea blends with the sound of flowing, which has a unique flavor.

Eating tea and listening to the piano at dusk, many people are drunk in the blue moon breeze.

I heard a few men eating tea.

"This time, our army gave the barbarian demon an unexpected surprise attack, and won a complete victory!"

"This battle has been reversed, although the demon clan is still arrogant, but our army has recovered those cities that were lost before!"

"Wash away the shame!"

The men were shy and laughing loudly, as if they had taken the city back on their own.

Wan Niang stepped forward and asked.

"Now that this victory has been won, where have those soldiers been sent?"

A big-bellied man squinted and said.

"The higher authorities issued an order, and the soldiers of this battle are specially allowed to unload their armor and return to their hometowns for a few days......"

"Then my fiancΓ© is also inside, why don't you see him come back. ”

"I guess I died in battle. The men replied lightly, then ignored her.

It turned out that he died in battle, and I prayed in my heart for this gentleman to rest in peace and enter the cycle of reincarnation as soon as possible. The luck of cheating the corpse has to come once, but it can't come a second time.

I don't know what Wanniang is still thinking, and she won't go back to the mourning hall.

Later, Wan Niang asked an acquaintance to arrange it, and was able to find a lady who knew a lot of things.

When this lady saw the silver, she knew everything and said everything.

"This time, our flag is victorious, God blesses, no one in the army has died in battle. ”

It turns out that Mr. is not dead, compared to the big-bellied man, I still believe in this reputable lady.

Seeing Wanniang dizzy for a while, she couldn't tell who was real and who was fake, and she couldn't figure it out.

The lady touched her brain, comforted her for a while, and persuaded her to look away, love and love can't accompany people for a lifetime.

"People who gain fame and fortune will always forget their hearts, especially those who suddenly gain wealth. ”

"There is a better life, who will be nostalgic for the past. ”

There are words in the words, which poke Wan Niang's heart, she is sad, this bitter gourd face can make me stunned.

She is like a big dark cloud floating on her, lingering, I can't persuade her in detail, I can't make sure she loses me.

At this time, I heard a wail from a stall in the street, which shocked us both to death.

It turned out to be a fortune teller who told people fortune. He rubbed his beard and said slowly to the woman in front of him.

"This person will be rich and noble for the rest of his life, full of children and grandchildren, and will die at the end of his life. ”

As he spoke, the woman shook her head in disbelief and cried out loudly.

"How is that possible!" and laughed like a madman.

"Once he became rich, he abandoned his wife and children! How could such a person die a righteous death!"

She was incredulous, glaring and mocking.

The fortune teller calmly replied: "Fate, impermanence." ”

I want to come to this fortune-telling word poor.

"Why ......"

"Pity my child, he is a good boy with ambitions, the battle of winter, the demon clan is brutal, and no one is alive. ”

"My child, too, died there. ”

She finally wilted her anger, like a stump buried in the mud, covered her face, and cried loudly.

I lament that this fate is really impermanent, and that life is short, so why hate? But if you don't like it or hate, there will be no taste in this short life.

Wan Niang tossed and turned and handed me over to Junwei.

Fate is impermanent.

"You, really?"

Jun touched my cat's hair, and was patiently happy. My bones are numb, and I want to ask for these claws.

"I'm going to find him. ”

Wan Niang nodded.

If this undead gentleman wanted to deliberately avoid her, she would not be able to find it.

"Remember, girl, my cousin. ”

Wan Niang was stunned and looked at Shang Jun's face as light as autumn water.

"That's the one who hates eating your red bean cakes. ”

Wan Niang nodded.

"I remember that he didn't just hate my red bean cakes. ”

Jun carried me away, I had a grudge in my heart but was helpless. That's when I thought about what he meant when he said I couldn't escape.

I wanted to bite his finger, but he followed my hair and gave me a piece of sweet cake to bite him when I was done.

At this time, there was another turn on the stage, which was eye-catching. A delicate lady thought for a long time, looked through the autumn water at the empty window, and suddenly covered the veil and vomited blood.

The blood was made very realistically, and it was stained bright red on the veil, like a handful of red beans sprinkled.
