Chapter 129: Mom

After I talked about the fact that Chen Yi was going to get married, I couldn't express the pain in my heart, so I stood numbly, my eyes stayed on a very square stone, a piece of moonlight fell on it, and even the weeds growing on it had a shadow.

Xiao Ai got up slightly, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his coat pocket with great difficulty, threw it to me and said, "Smoke a cigarette." ”

I caught it, it was Yuxi cigarettes (soft realm) produced in Yunnan, the price was very expensive, but there were only about a dozen cigarettes left in it, so I asked her, "Where did you get this cigarette?" ”

"When I was just singing, a tourist asked me for money, and I saw that he had a good cigarette, so I didn't ask for money, so I asked for this small half pack of cigarettes. I thought: if we have a chance to meet, I'm willing to give it to you to draw. ”

I was a little moved in my heart, and looked at the coat on her body that was leaning on the corner with a lot of white ash, smiled and said, "You are really wandering!" ”

"Wasn't it a wandering when you were in Nanjing?"

I think of her life in Nanjing, no one cares and no one asks, although she doesn't worry about money, but it's not much different from wandering, but I don't want to tell her this fact, because she will be sad, if a person has a home, no one wants to wander in this world.

She fiddled with the guitar in her hand, and said indifferently: "Anyway, it's a wandering in Nanjing, and it's also a wandering in Lijiang, but I think Lijiang is freer, anyway, no one knows me here, I want to sit on the ground and sing, I sit on the ground, in Nanjing, I have idol baggage!" ”

She didn't seem to care about the serious look again, which made me want to laugh a little, and after a long time, I finally looked at her and said, "You're kind of cute, you know?" ”

She looked up at me, no longer fiddling with the guitar in her hand, but said nothing, and after a moment took the case open, took out the box of soaked barrels from underneath, and ate it herself.

I lit a cigarette and sat down next to her, we were all quiet, she had dinner, I looked at the moonlit world, imagining whether the most brilliant flower would bloom in the distance, so that the world would not look so pale, and tomorrow would naturally have a good day, the sun was natural, the air was fresh, and the wind was neither hot nor cold......

When I was about to finish a cigarette, I was inevitably pulled back to reality by the cold of the night, and I remembered the fact that Chen Yi was about to get married, although I said it, Xiao Ai did not comfort me, but I was not as painful as I had just now, because I had already expected this ending.

However, when the cigarette was completely smoked, my heart was in sharp pain, for so many years Chen Yi and I were like the wind and cooking smoke, only she could take my life to a farther and more beautiful place, but she let go at this moment, I had to face life alone in the future, and I would never be able to blow her such a gentle wind again......

I want to go back, if Chen Yi hasn't rested, I want to sit on the balcony of the inn with her again, drink some hot tea, and chat for a while.

But what else can we talk about?

I refilled another cigarette and looked at the bamboo chips and wind chimes hanging on an inn in the distance with a lonely expression, listening to their sounds, the night on this observation deck was so quiet that even a hint of wind and grass could be accepted by my senses.

……

Xiao Ai got up and threw the finished bucket noodle box into the trash bin not far away, and when she came back and sat down again, I also helped her dust the piece behind her coat that rubbed the white ash, so she became clean again, clean hair, clean face, clean clothes, like a bouquet of flowers growing in the moonlight, pure and generous!

"Jiang Qiao, can you whistle?"

"Absolutely."

"Men who can whistle are shameless, and they must be whistling at beautiful women on the street, right?"

If she asks me if I can whistle just to scold me for being shameless, then I can't laugh or cry!

She added: "I haven't made any money to sleep tonight, so I'll have to sing it tonight, and the song I want to sing later has a whistling before the chorus starts, and it's simple, you just have to remember the beat." ”

"No need to make money! Actually, I can ask you to sleep. ”

Xiao Ai looked at me......

I realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly changed my words: "Slip of the tongue, I can ask you to stay, it's the off-season, and the room rate of the inn is basically not expensive!" ”

"Old rascal!"

I was a little embarrassed by her scolding, raised my hand and took a puff of cigarette, and then had a dry cough, I am indeed so many years older than her, combined with my words and deeds just now, so the title of "old rascal" is really well deserved!

She didn't seem to have any intention of asking me to pay for her room at all, and the next moment she played a very warm, comforting rhythm on her guitar, and then said to me: "When I sing until your child has been well-behaved, you start whistling, and when I hit the board with my fingers, you stop, and the whole song is just a little part of the song, so it's easy." ”

"Oh, good!"

Looking at my absent-minded appearance, Xiao Ai asked uneasily, "Are you sure you understand?" ”

"I'll whistle when you've sung and your child has been well-behaved, and I'll stop when you've struck the board with your fingers."

"You can still teach ......"

Xiao Ai ended the prelude to the song as she spoke, and she began to sing: "What else can bloom, you know that I have always been very well-behaved." Our past is a paddy field, and what else is there to look forward to. Mommy don'tletdown, mom gowiththewind. Dandelions and cooking smoke are waiting for you, your kids have been very well-behaved......"

I'm an out-and-out layman when it comes to singing, but the melody of this song is so simple that when Xiao Ai sings "Your child has always been very well-behaved", I whistle and blow it all to the tune.

I'm very sad, because this song seems to be tailor-made for me and Xiao Ai, my mother has been gone for 17 years, I miss her very much, but I am not lost, I have always lived in this world according to the rules, so my greatest pleasure is only to raise flowers and grass, I have never been obsessed with nightclubs, not obsessed with shortcuts in this world in exchange for the premise of losing conscience; I'm just a simple, maybe a little complaining wedding planner, every penny of my hard-earned money is spent sparingly, and I've always been well-behaved!

And Xiao Ai, like me, was not lost after her mother left. Now she is self-reliant, opened her own piano shop, and then can afford her own life, she is very well-behaved and great!

Maybe it's because the song is too simple, or maybe we're all distracted, so we can skillfully interpret this song after just one run-in, and this is also the most emotional song I think Xiao Ai sang.

When the song was finished, I finally asked her, "That's pretty good, what's the name of this song?" ”

She replied a little sadly: "The name of the song is "Mom", which was created by a well-known ** musician in our Nanjing music circle, and the live version is better." ”

I subconsciously asked, "Is it Yuan Zhen?" ”

She just shook her head, but didn't answer, I know that she doesn't want to say too much at the moment, she is still immersed in the sadness of this song, and I am the same, I can't help but think of the textile factory in Nanjing, how much hope I have gained there, and how much loss I have endured!

I don't know how long it took, but Xiao Ai finally turned to look at me, who had been sitting beside her. Under the moonlight, her expression was so lonely!

I have also been looking at her clean short hair and fair skin, she is a delicate and fairy girl, although I have expressed this many times, but in this artistic conception, I still can't help but praise in my heart, her beauty is God's generosity after drinking, the only thing that can be compared to it is the pregnant woman I saw in the "Mochou Coffee Shop" in Nanjing.

After looking at me for a while, she finally asked me, "Jiang Qiao, you see that I am so fun-loving and unreliable, will I be a good mother in the future?" ”

"Yes, you won't let your child repeat your current pain, because you know how painful it is!"

"So you're going to be a good dad in the future, right?"

I nodded, I didn't want my future children to suffer the pain that I hadn't been able to get rid of until now.

At this moment, we didn't make it clear that we would be parents of the same child, but I still smiled in the picture I imagined, Xiao Ai also smiled slightly, then got up and took my arm and said, "Come on, let's go singing, I don't want to lose money from the guest house tonight." ”

……

In a relatively crowded place, Xiao Ai and I stood under a willow tree, and then placed her red knitted hat on the ground, waiting for some generous visitors to reward her with some money for staying at the inn for the evening.

The beautiful and talented girl is naturally attractive, Xiao Ai has not yet started singing, there are already a lot of onlookers gathered around her, and as soon as the soothing and somewhat warm prelude comes out, there are already generous people who have thrown ten yuan into the knitted hat, maybe this generous person knows the guitar, so his generosity is not for Xiao Ai's beauty, but for her guitar skills.

"What else can bloom, you know I've always been very well-behaved. Our past is a paddy field, and what else is there to look forward to. Mommy don'tletdown, mom gowiththewind. Dandelions and cooking smoke are waiting for you, your kids have been very well-behaved......"

I don't have much acting experience, but when Xiao Ai sang "Your child has always been very well-behaved", I instinctively whistled for her and watched her sing, trying to keep up with her rhythm perfectly.

At this moment, the lights are circling, the breeze is blowing the leaves that have not yet fallen, and two men and women like orphans are singing the song they want to sing most in their hearts in the face of the travelers who rushed to Lijiang from thousands of worlds to play!

No matter what the future holds, I will definitely remember this night deeply, and in this depressed world, it is not difficult to remember such a night with a beautiful girl who is a little willful, a little cute and a little sad!
