Chapter 60: Waiting for the Chrysanthemum to Bloom
After eating, Leng Chen put away the dishes and chopsticks and left, and came back after a while, Yuexi noticed the water on his sleeve, he should have gone out to wash the dishes just now. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I planted a lot of chrysanthemums in front of the house, do you want to go and see them?"
"Okay." The original intention was irrelevant, but the words were involuntarily spoken.
"Let's go." Leng Chen took her hand and led her to the courtyard.
The yard was small, all but a gazebo and a winding path were planted with chrysanthemums, the soil was moist and freshly watered, some were vigorous and some were wilted, apparently just planted.
The two sat on the stone bench in the pavilion, Leng Chen looked at the chrysanthemums in the courtyard, "It must be beautiful when they bloom." ”
Yuexi looked at the chrysanthemums in the courtyard and was silent, imagining the appearance of the chrysanthemums blooming in her mind.
"Can you forgive me when the chrysanthemums bloom?"
Yuexi retracted her gaze, "I don't resent you. "To hate is to hate yourself, to be too simple and stupid, to not know people clearly, and to blame others.
There is love and hate, and her heart is like water now, which can only be said that she doesn't care about herself anymore.
"Then let's get acquainted again." Coming here, Leng Chen was already ready, and Yuexi would not leave here for a day if she didn't accept herself.
"I'm used to fighting and killing, so it's not bad to have such a peaceful life." Leng Chen leaned on the railing, looked at the clouds in the sky, and lived a calm and quiet life with the person he liked, which was really good.
"Do you like to live like this?" Thinking of what she didn't know about him, Yuexi asked.
"Sunrise and sunset, and beloved support each other to grow old, isn't this kind of day a good day?"
Yuexi imagined in her mind the scene of two old men sitting side by side watching the sunset with their faces all over their faces, and she was a little yearning.
"You'll find someone willing to watch the sunrise with you."
Leng Chen looked at her, "I want to watch the sunrise with that person, is it willing to watch it with me?" ”
The eyes that looked directly were faintly longing, knowing that he was waiting for his answer, Yuexi turned her head away, and she was already ready to stop loving, but when she saw his eyes, her heart always accelerated uncontrollably.
The wind rose, and thousands of green silks flew in the air, entwining with each other.
Knowing that her heart knot was not so easy to untie, Leng Chen didn't force it, "Go back, your illness hasn't healed yet, I decocted the medicine, and it should be better now." ”
A bowl of medicinal soup and three candied fruits.
People really become, and the people who used to say good medicine with a serious face now take the initiative to take out candied fruit.
Lunch was usually a little difficult to swallow, and she couldn't go hungry, so Yuexi could only barely eat some.
After lunch, Leng Chen sat on a chair and talked about the knowledge of medicinal materials, Yuexi listened carefully, and this moment seemed to return to the time when he was in Qingquan in the past.
After taking medicine, sitting in the warm sun, listening to the low voice in his ears, soon sleepiness hit, Yuexi was drowsy, and slowly closed her eyes.
Leng Chen put down the teacup in his hand, hugged the person sitting by the window, gently put it on the bed, and covered the quilt.
The sleeping person lost his usual stubbornness and depression, Leng Chen stroked her face, and couldn't help but bow his head and imprint a kiss on her lips, "Have a good dream." ”
When I opened my eyes, it was already dark, and there were candles burning in the house, so I sat on a chair in the house and read quietly.
Is this what a quiet and quiet life is all about?
"Awake?" Hearing the movement, Leng Chen put away the book in his hand and got up, "Are you hungry?" I've already made the meal. ”
It's still an unpalatable meal, the only difference is that the porridge no longer has a mushy taste.
Leng Chen said a little proudly, "Is there any progress?" ”
Yuexi turned a blind eye to his smugness.
After eating, Leng Chen put on the chessboard, "Will you play chess?" ”
"No, it won't."
"There's a stream not far from the back mountain, and we're going fishing tomorrow?"
"No, no."
Leng Chen played chess with himself, "I remembered, you will block, and you will only win and not lose, can you tell me the trick?" ”
Chang Yuexi was proud, "Why should I tell you?" ”
Leng Chen put away the chess pieces one by one, "I'll also have a lot of you won't, let's exchange?" ”
"Don't."
"I'll get two for you."
"Don't."
"Three."
"Don't."
The moon hangs on the willow tops, and the sound of fighting comes from the bamboo house, mixed with laughter from time to time.
When she opened her eyes early in the morning and heard the movement in the backyard, Yuexi pushed open the window and practiced in the courtyard in the morning.
They looked at each other with a slight smile on their faces.
A new day begins.
It's like a paradise, no one disturbs you, sitting the same thing every day, it seems to be really simple and quiet as Leng Chen said, the only difference is that Leng Chen's cooking skills are getting better and better.
The beginning of the day at sunrise and the end of the day at sunset.
Since Yuexi recovered from her illness, Leng Chen took her to the tallest tree every day to watch the sunrise and sunset.
The night was deep and the stars were shining brightly in the sky.
The night without sunlight added to the coldness, Yuexi gathered the clothes on her body, and was about to leave, when a hand next to her reached over and wrapped herself in her arms.
With a warm body temperature, Yuexi stiffened and no longer resisted, and obediently leaned her head on Leng Chen's shoulder.
From the initial resistance to the current gradual acceptance, his step-by-step approach has really worked.
The aroma of braised pork wafted in from the window, arousing Yuexi's gluttony. The gentleman cooks far away, and it is hard to imagine that Leng Chen is so sweet.
The chrysanthemums in the yard are full of vitality, some are already budding, and Yuexi will go to the courtyard every day for a walk and wander among the chrysanthemums.
A chrysanthemum near the pavilion attracted Yuexi's attention, it was fine a few days ago, but today it has become listless, and the leaves near the roots have turned yellow and withered.
Just like the love between himself and Leng Chen, the two people who originally walked into the happy hall happily are now lukewarm, if it weren't for Leng Chen's repeated insistence, the two of them are probably strangers now.
Remove the surrounding weeds, Yuexi carefully watered the chrysanthemums, the flowers need careful care to grow well, and the same is true of human love, which requires the joint efforts of the two of them, since he has already paid first, why can't he take a step.
Life is crumbling in the wind and there is a possibility of leaving at any time, Yuexi selfishly regards it as her dying love, if this chrysanthemum can survive, give yourself another chance.
With this thought, Yuexi began to take good care of the chrysanthemum, but even so, it still died.
Is God telling yourself to cut off this thought? Yuexi had tears in her eyes.
But why does my heart hurt so much?
There was a sound of footsteps behind her, Yuexi turned around, tears dotted, "It's dead, I took care of it so hard, it's still dead." ”
Leng Chen stopped her in his arms and hugged her tightly.
Yuexi sobbed, "I told myself in my heart that if this chrysanthemum survived, I would believe you once, and we would start over, but it died." ”
"Actually, you're hoping he survives, right?" Leng Chen caressed her face, "Silly girl." ”
"Because you have already accepted me in your heart, so I hope that this chrysanthemum can grow, the life and death of the chrysanthemum cannot determine the continuation of the relationship between us, but it has proved the existence of the relationship between us."
"You're still willing to be with me in your heart, aren't you?"
Leng Chen's voice was low, soft as if bewitched.
Yuexi looked at him in a daze, thinking back to her anxious mood these days, and the heartache of disappointment when she saw the chrysanthemums die.
"I'm ......" snorted, Yuexi couldn't speak.
Leng Chen stared at her with a expression, "What are you going to say?" ”
"I don't know."
"There is no need to say it, your actions have proven your heart." Leng Chen induced him step by step, Yuexi had already relented, how could she not seize this opportunity, "Sometimes people's bodies are more honest than their mouths, and what you have done has explained everything." ”
"My heart ......" a squirming voice, someone approached here, interrupting Yuexi's unfinished words, "Someone is coming." ”
It's far away from the market, and they have never been disturbed by outsiders for more than half a month, who will it be?
"Hanfeng has seen the girl, and he has seen the master of the North Hall." The person who came turned out to be a cold wind.
"What's the matter?" Being disturbed at a critical moment, Leng Chen was quite displeased, and his words were cold.
"The palace master asks the north hall master to return to the palace."
Leng Chen said, "What's the matter?" "If it weren't for something, Jian Zhongxie wouldn't have sent someone to inform him to go back.
Hanfeng said: "I don't know. ”
