Jian Yi (extra)
Sister Hua, when I write this letter to you, I am already in my twilight years.
I didn't expect to be deceived by your little girl, and I was deceived for 60 years, 60 years, Sister Hua, how can you compensate me?
60 years have passed like lightning, and now I am an old man with gray hair, I'm afraid that you should dislike me when you come back and see me, right? It is said that old age is forgetful, but I can still clearly recall the stubborn and brave Bai Huating back then, although it was a long time ago 60 years ago.
The night you left, I listened to your words and went to Beiping; The weather there is not as warm as Shanghai, but the streets and alleys are full of babbling songs, but there is a bit of old Shanghai; It's just that every day in Beiping, I feel that Sister Hua will suddenly appear in front of me, I think like this every day, but you don't appear every day. It wasn't until I spent 6 long years in Peking that I began to wonder, Sister Hua, can't you find a way to Beiping?
Later, I went back to Shanghai, back to the place where we used to live, I think Sister Hua, you won't even be able to find your own home, right? I don't think you're that stupid. Here I can wait for you to come back with peace of mind, because I always believe that one day you will come back to me. But who knew that you lied to me so badly, until now when I put pen to paper to write this letter to you, I still stupidly thought that you would appear in front of me in the next second.
I used to think that no matter where I went, you would always be by my side, but it turned out that fate only gave us a few short years together; You walked too early in my time, and I found out that you and I are so deep and shallow, there is a saying that this love can only become a memory, and this life is empty.
Sister Hua, maybe we have a shallow fate in this life, so we don't have that blessing.
What can I do but accept my fate?
After you left, Shanghai underwent a lot of changes, and in the decades that followed, as you said, there were first wars, then political movements. In fact, sometimes I think, it's good if you leave, at least it's safe to go, because in such an era of endless wars, even I myself live a life of life today and a guillotine tomorrow, what else can I do to protect you?
In this life, it is a foregone conclusion that you and I are husband and wife, so we have to bet our fate on the next life. I finally understand that there is not only an age gap between you and me, but also a gap in time and space.
I wanted to bury this letter under the locust tree along with the photo, but I can't bear to let you cry when you see this letter; Maybe you lived the life that belonged to you in the era that belonged to you, or maybe you forgot me early, because you didn't belong here after all.
Sister Hua, I bet that I will be able to meet you in the next life.
When the time comes, please be sure to recognize me. (To be continued.) )
