Chapter 168: Hanging the Pot Helps the World
Bai Xiaoman opened the window, the wind rushed in, with a suffocating coldness, and there was a tingling sensation on the exposed skin, Bai Xiaoman didn't realize it, and he didn't even think about pulling his clothes together, Qiu Li came in and saw it, and immediately rushed to the window, closed the window, and blamed: "Although it's already spring, it's extremely cold on Qiongshan, beware of blowing uncomfortable." ”
Bai Xiaoman said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of, I'm not pregnant anyway, and I'm going to have a life." ”
Qiu Li sighed, pulled her inside, and saw that Bai Xiaoman's expression was faint, and there didn't seem to be any big ups and downs, so he asked, "I'm going down the mountain tomorrow, don't you still follow me?" ”
Bai Xiaoman didn't seem to hear it, and his face was expressionless.
Qiu Li didn't ask anymore, helped her make the bed, checked again whether the window was closed tightly, and advised, "Rest early, I'll go back to the room." ”
Since Qingyang Xiaocen passed away, it has been more than three months, Bai Xiaoman guarded his body for three days, almost did not eat or drink, no matter how Qiu Li persuaded him, he refused to leave half a step, and then Bai Xiaoman personally dug a pit and buried Qingyang Xiaocen next to the plum forest where he lived, and chose a place with the most beautiful scenery.
Qiu Li once asked her if she wanted to transport Qingyang Xiaocen's body back to Jincheng, Bai Xiaoman shook his head and refused, she said that Qingyang always wanted to live the life of idle clouds and wild cranes all his life, but he was burdened by the responsibility on his shoulders and could not escape, and now that no one is there, he should not return to the place that makes him tired.
In the days when Qingyang just left, Bai Xiaoman had an extremely difficult time every day, one turned around, the other turned back, and he could see the figure of longing in a trance. Even when she was eating, she dropped a chopstick dish, and she couldn't raise her head anymore, the mist rose in her eyes, and she stared at the dishes on the ground and cried for a long time.
Qiu Li always persuaded hard at first, but then the mother-in-law of the medicine king didn't let her say more, let Bai Xiaoman cry enough, such a sad thing always has to be resolved, otherwise it is easy to become a heart disease.
And Bai Xiaoman's personality should have gone with Qingyang Xiaocen, but he was shackled by this, and he couldn't think about it anymore, as the days passed, Bai Xiaoman's initial hatred and resentment towards the child gradually transformed, and together with his longing and reluctance to Qingyang Xiaocen, they all twisted into a precious rope.
Thinking of the child in her belly, Bai Xiaoman was surprised and happy, she had never been accurate in her menstrual affairs, and she didn't care much about it, she was already pregnant, and she didn't know it at all.
Thinking that this was the last connection with Qingyang Xiaocen, Bai Xiaoman was full of relief.
A month after Qingyang Xiaocen left, Yaowang's mother-in-law also passed away, Qiuli was very sad, Bai Xiaoman was constantly comforting and encouraging, and the two became more intimate after this incident, like a lonely boat floating in the floating world, leaning together to warm each other and draw strength from each other.
But after more than two months, although Bai Xiaoman had no experience, he also found that his body seemed to be a little wrong, not only was his stomach not a little round, but also the physiological changes that should have been there, nothing, she began to wonder if she was not pregnant, and soon, this conjecture was confirmed, she had a menstrual period.
Bai Xiaoman angrily rushed over to find Qiu Li and asked her why she was deceiving herself.
Qiuli's eyes didn't hesitate at all, and he looked at her for a long time without making a sound.
Bai Xiaoman's original condemnation and questioning all disappeared, how could she not understand why Qiu Li was like this, thousands of reasons could not compare to one hope that she could live well.
And Qingyang Xiaocen's last sentence, lying, is nothing more than trying to give Bai Xiaoman a buffer time, and when she finds out that she is not pregnant, maybe the saddest days have passed, what is time, the most powerful medicine, no matter how many scars there are, can be healed.
And Qiu Li's thin shoulders also repeatedly reminded Bai Xiaoman that she had just lost the closest person.
In the end, Bai Xiaoman sat on the ground, crying silently, crying for his selfishness and sad for the next empty life.
Qiu Li walked over, slowly squatted down, and held Bai Xiaoman in her arms, just like she hugged and comforted herself countless times, the two women sat until late at night, until they seemed to have exhausted all the tears in their bodies, and then moved their numb legs and stood up.
Qingyang Xiaocen had already made arrangements for all the shops in Qingyuan when the group left Jincheng, maybe he had expected that this trip would be difficult, and he might not retreat, perhaps, he didn't know how long it would take to find a good way to save Bai Xiaoman, a huge institution, and would not be shaken by the departure of a person, at this time, Bai Xiaoman knew how shallow she was, she used to think that the building was unreliable, and she had to have a lot of money to have a sense of security, but then she had enough money, but she lost the most important person.
At this time, she and Qiu Li, but lost the most primitive motivation of life.
After a few days of such a mess, Qiu Li began to pack up her things silently, and Bai Xiaoman saw that she was different this time, so he asked, "Are you going to go down the mountain for a long time this time?" ”
Qiu Li didn't stop the movements of his hands, Bai Xiaoman didn't continue to ask, and when the things were almost packed, Qiu Li looked up and asked her: "I won't come back in the future, I'm going to practice medicine everywhere to save people, otherwise, the rest of my life is so long, I don't want to spend it on this Qiong Mountain, are you with me?" ”
Bai Xiaoman couldn't help but look at Qingyang Xiaocen's grave, and didn't answer for a while.
"Qiongshan is full of plum forests every year, and I really miss it tightly, so come back and take a look, what's more, now, no matter where you go, isn't Brother Xiao Cen in your heart?"
After Qiu Li finished speaking, he walked out, leaving Bai Xiaoman alone, and did not urge.
Until the new sun rose, Qiu Li didn't see Bai Xiaoman go out again, she sighed, pushed open the door, but saw that the spring ice melted, the branches were tender, Bai Xiaoman was ready to go, and he was already waiting at the gate of the bamboo garden, looking at her and smiling.
"The master is above, and I will bear with me in the future."
Qiu Li smiled: "Okay, then you will follow the teacher to help the world in the future." ”
Bai Xiaoman carried the package and walked side by side with Qiuli on the road down the mountain.
After a few months, the scenery under the mountain is also very different, and what is even more different is the mood at the moment.
Walking to the corner, Qiu Li stood still, looked back at the bamboo garden where he had lived for several years, and smiled bitterly: "It is not easy for people to live, the world is impermanent, Master has trapped himself here all his life, you and I have experienced too much, and we should live to need courage and courage the most, but we can't just nest in the mountains and be a turtle with a shrunken head for a lifetime." ”
Bai Xiaoman's tone was soft: "You have always been braver than me, more courageous than me." ”
Qiu Li took a deep breath, suppressed the dampness in his eyes, and said with a light smile: "Let's go, give me a hand in the future, follow me to study medicine, and start a war in Xuanguo Cangguo, it is the common people who suffer, since we feel that it is boring to live, we will help those who want to live, so that they can live well." ”
Bai Xiaoman nodded vigorously. (To be continued.) )
