Acacia trees, staggered time and space
This lunch, Xu Fei was very sad, he felt that he and Ah Sheng were separated, she no longer showed joy and sorrow easily, and with an indifferent expression and a faint smile, Shengsheng opened up the distance between them.
Sandwiching the dish into Ah Sheng and his wife's bowl, Ah Sheng said, "Thank you." He"
He lowered his head to eat, and held on to not cry in front of them.
In fact, he wanted to cry for a long time, the moment he saw Ah Sheng, the tears that had been pent up for many years almost came out, he had a lot of things to say to her, but when the words came to his mouth, all the thousand words became speechless in the next second.
After dinner, Xu Fei sent Ah Sheng back and left the school, he stretched out his arm and gently hugged her shoulder: "Ah Sheng, although we haven't seen each other for many years, I am still Xu Fei in the past, if you want to cry, don't hold on." ”
But she didn't cry in the end, she looked down at the road under her feet, and walked seriously, as if she was worried that the road was unstable and she would fall down if she was not careful.
"Last night I had a dream that I was back in 2001, and my family immigrated to the United States, where I was learning and growing up, and I was having a great time," she later said. ”
Xu Fei asked, "Are you unhappy now?" ”
She didn't speak for a long time, and then she spoke, with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "I'm happy now, I'm happy for myself in my dreams and you in reality." ”
Xu Fei's eyebrows twitched, he took a deep breath, and his tone seemed very relaxed: "Where do you want to go, I will accompany you." Da"
……
The long river in memory is already a little muddy, hundreds of tea shops still exist, and what does not exist is people.
There are several employees in the tea shop, and the one who makes the tea is a middle-aged man, not the sixth grandfather's child, Xu Fei ordered a pot of tea and poured it outside for Ah Sheng to drink.
"What about the sixth master? And the sixth grandmother......" she spoke, her head down and her fingernails scratching at the table legs, her voice harsh.
"The sixth grandmother had cancer, and in order to prepare for the surgery fee, he sold the tea shop, but then he died......" After a pause for a few seconds, Xu Fei continued: "The sixth grandmother is still alive, moved to a neighboring city, lives with her children, and has not come back for many years. ”
Ah Sheng Mumu listened, answered in a low voice, and did not react again.
The words of the sixth master are still echoing in my ears: "It's okay to come back often, I and your sixth grandmother are a lot older, maybe one day when you come back, we will be gone." ”
How can people say that if they don't, it's gone?
Looking at the familiar scene, it seems that the sixth master and the sixth grandmother are still there, the sixth master is making tea in the house, and the sixth grandmother is sitting on a small stool at the door with the soles of her shoes.
It was here that she brought the brewed tea to Lu Zichu, and he praised the tea for being very humane.
He took her by the hand and told her that when they were old, they would come and live here. He said that there are not so many twists and turns in people and things here, and after living for a long time, people will become very clean.
Xu Fei knew that Ah Sheng was sad, every time he passed by here, he would take a detour to leave, touching the scene and feeling uncomfortable!
Ah Sheng silently took a sip of tea, and her dead heart fluctuated slightly, the interval was too long, although she hadn't drunk the tea brewed by the sixth master for a long time, her tea art was almost taught by the sixth master. She can drink what tea has been cleverly added by the sixth master, this tea ...... It is very similar to the tea brewed by the sixth master.
told Xu Fei about this, he didn't study tea, and when he saw the middle-aged man who had made tea before coming out of the store to pour tea leaves, Xu Fei stopped him: "Who did you learn this tea art from?" ”
The man glanced at Xu Fei and Ah Sheng and asked, "Are the two locals?" ”
"Local." Xu Fei explained lightly: "In the past, when the sixth master was still there, we often came over to drink the tea he cooked, and your tea is very similar to the tea he cooked. ”
The man smiled: "I see! The sixth master in your mouth is my sixth uncle, and I learned to make tea with him when I was a child. ”
"Oh." Xu Fei suddenly asked him, "Are you the owner of this shop now?" ”
"Sort of!" The man was honest, standing aside with a teapot, and said: "It's hard to say, to be fair, I picked up a big bargain, and someone bought this shop from someone else at a high price and gave it to me." ”
Someone was drinking tea next to him, and after listening to the shopkeeper's words, he pouted and said, "No, boss, how can there be such a good thing in the world?" ”
"Don't say it, this really happened to me." The shopkeeper glanced at the tea shop and said, "After the death of the sixth uncle, this shop changed hands back and forth several times. Five years ago, Mr. Lu came here for tea, and after drinking the tea I brewed, he bought it and gave it to me within two days, but with one additional condition, he wanted to continue to open the shop. ”
Ah Sheng pursed his lips slightly, Xu Fei was also stunned, glanced at Ah Sheng, then looked at the shopkeeper, and hesitated: "What you said about Mr. Lu, should it be...... Lu Zichu, right? ”
"Who else but him?" The shopkeeper smiled: "Back then, he was still Lu's Shaodong, and he was extraordinarily generous, I couldn't make ends meet at first, so I called him with the attitude of giving it a try, and it didn't take long for the money to call, and then he also found someone to come and teach me how to do business, so the tea shop business will get better and better." ”
There was an uproar around, and he looked at the shopkeeper in disbelief. Someone listened to it, hehe laughed twice, and it was completely regarded as a joke, obviously not taken seriously.
"Did he ever come here after that?" This was asked by Ah Sheng, and his voice was hoarse.
When he came to drink tea, he must have been alone. A pot of tea, revealing things and people, how lonely should he be......
The shopkeeper shook his head: "No, but sometimes when I go to T City, I will contact him through the secretary." He didn't talk much, met with me, and only asked me to make tea, no
