Chapter 37 Ambiguity is sweet to sadness
When Sun Hao and the others came back, it was already evening, their steps were frivolous, and their faces showed fatigue. It seems that the so-called simple blessing ceremony is not so simple, Feng Xiaolu's face was silent, as if she was examining the rest of her life after the catastrophe, Zhou Ying let out a sigh, Sun Hao, Zhang Hui drooped their heads, their expressions were dazed, and they seemed to have no energy to speak, only Wang Huan was better, his face was full of calm, but his eyes burst with a burning light, and the expression was exactly the same as when she received the express, in her words, it was not in vain to make the old lady hard, and it was worth the money.
Looking at their appearance, Lu Xue and I looked at each other, shook our heads slightly, and sighed in my heart, fortunately I didn't go. Lu Xue smiled and blinked, as if to say that the pursuit of happiness is never easy.
I didn't ask them what kind of ritual could toss them like this? They didn't bother to say either. After that, everyone hastily ate some fasting and went back to the room to rest.
The next morning, we were woken up by the sound of Taoist priests giving their morning lessons, so we simply got up. Sun Hao's spirit is better than yesterday, and they don't see the fatigue of yesterday, but they were woken up from their dreams early in the morning, and we all had sleepy eyes and looked like we didn't get enough sleep. After everyone finished washing, they chatted without a word until the Taoist priests finished their morning class, and we were completely awake after eating fast.
"It's a pity that Xiao Luxue didn't go to yesterday's blessing ceremony." We sat in the small courtyard yesterday, Feng Xiaolu said half-truthfully.
"Oh." Lu Xue sighed, smiling, and her tone was flat.
"It's a pity to give up such an opportunity but accompany a stone, are you right, Sun Hao?" Zhou Ying took the words and continued to tease with a smile, and by the way, she also threw the conversation to Sun Hao.
"Well, well, it's a waste." Sun Hao glanced at me and said insincerely.
Zhang Hui shrugged helplessly, as if he wanted to say a few words for me, but he could see Feng Xiaolu's threatening eyes, so he had to give up.
Wang Huan shook her head lightly, looked at me with her usual contemptuous expression, and silently spit out two words, looking at the shape of her mouth, she should be saying, "It's a pity." ”
Pity? I shook my head helplessly.
"Well, ah, I'll go get some boiling water." Lu Xue seemed to be a little uncomfortable with their ridicule, so she found an excuse and walked out of the yard quickly.
Watching Lu Xue walk out of the courtyard, they didn't continue to tease, but fell into a strange silence.
"Xiaoshan, you like dew snow." In the end, it was Feng Xiaolu who broke the silence, but her tone stopped with desire.
Like? I seemed to be in a trance.
Sun Hao looked at me and said softly, "Actually, I don't object to you chasing my sister, it's just"
"Why should I chase your sister?" I settled down and said calmly.
"You, this" Sun Hao Xu was so angry that he was speechless for a while.
"Idiot." Wang Huan glanced at me and said lightly, without a trace of emotion in his tone.
"Yes, idiot!" Sun Hao said approvingly, but his tone was more like a low roar.
"I'm talking about you." Wang Huan glared at Sun Hao, and still said lightly.
"Huh? Oh, ahhh Sun Hao was speechless for a while, looked at Wang Huan embarrassedly, and then looked at us and shrugged helplessly.
Feng Xiaolu and Zhou Ying looked at each other with a smile, it was a gossip expression that only a woman could understand, and that expression only conveyed one thing - ambiguity.
Zhang Hui continued to shrug helplessly.
"Men are so ruthless." Wang Huan looked at the distance and sighed softly, his eyes were full of confusion, and his tone was sad, Yousi, there seemed to be a trace of hope.
Silence, everyone fell into silence again.
"Where are we going to play today?" When Lu Xue came back from fetching water, she saw that everyone had fallen into a strange silence, so she asked as she poured me tea.
"yes, where are you going?" Feng Xiaolu hurriedly took over the topic, "Why don't we go to the forest?" ”
"This, not good, if we meet on the road again, ah, that, not very good." Zhou Ying also said.
"Where should we go?"
"When I came, I saw a wishing tree by the gate, why don't we go and make a wish?" Zhou Ying thought about it and suggested.
"Okay, then I'll go to the Wishing Tree." Wang Huan smiled and said, it seemed that she didn't want this embarrassing atmosphere to continue.
"That, me"
"You have to go!" Before I finished speaking, Feng Xiaolu glared at me and yelled.
I looked at Zhang Hui, who was helplessly spreading his hands to me.
Make a wish, I frowned and shook my head helplessly, it was just the crankiness of boring people, did I really think that as long as I hung my wish on the tree, as long as I waited for God's alms, I could get benefits? Boring, uninteresting, meaningless moves.
I raised my head and looked at Feng Xiaolu with an angry face, still intending to refuse. Just as I was about to say something, a warm feeling suddenly appeared on the back of my hand, revealing a soft touch that made people feel reassuring.
I turned my head to look at Luxue, who was gently holding the back of my hand, smiling at me, and shaking her head slightly.
I took a deep breath, nodded slowly, and gently withdrew my hand.
Everyone left the courtyard and came to the left side of the main hall by a large tree that I can't name, this tree seems to be some years old, very leafy, obviously after a long period of careful care by the Taoist priests, the branches and leaves are covered with red notes full of people's wishes.
We also took some red strips of paper from the Taoist priest, Feng Xiaolu took the pen and smiled and quickly wrote something on the strip of paper, as if writing her own happiness, but Zhou Ying seemed to have a difficult face, almost wanted to lift the pen and almost wanted to stop, Wang Huan wrote quietly, the expression was very similar to her when browsing the online store, the choice never seemed to be a problem for her, Sun Hao and Zhang Hui were frowning and thinking about something, wish, maybe it was also a difficult choice.
"Wishes, why do people have wishes?" I shook my head silently and muttered to myself.
"That's because we always have so many beautiful visions in life," Lu Xue carefully folded the piece of paper with her wishes written on it, and said with a smile, "This is our vision and hope for the future, although we can't do it for our current ability, but at least we still have hope, hope for a better future." ”
I looked up at the red strips of paper hanging on the tree, hope, hope hanging on the tree, hope slowly fading, pale and faint hope, I shook my head slightly, and slowly folded the paper without any words written, such hope is too cruel for me, don't do it.
"What did you wish?" Hanging up his own piece of paper, Wang Huan turned his head and looked at Sun Hao hopefully.
"Ah, this, doesn't it mean that if you can't say your wish, it won't work?" Sun Hao said with embarrassment and ominous excuses, and then let out an imperceptible sigh.
"Cut." Wang Huan snorted and ignored him no more.
"What about you?" Feng Xiaolu also looked at Zhang Hui with the same hope.
"Ah, I hope we can live happily." Zhang Hui looked at her and replied half-truthfully.
I looked at the people and hung my unwritten slip of paper on the tree.
"What did Xiaoshan wish?" Feng Xiaolu hurriedly came over with gossip interest and asked with interest.
I didn't answer her because I didn't know how to answer.
"What do you think Hill will wish for?" Feng Xiaolu approached Zhou Ying again and asked.
"I don't think he can write anything." Wang Huan interjected without yin or yang.
I ignored their ridicule, turned my head and quietly looked at Lu Xue who was clasping her hands together and making a vow, she closed her eyes, still with a smile on her face, but that smile was mixed with a trace of solemnity, a trace of determination and a trace of deep expectation. I looked at her, and somehow, suddenly I felt a trace of regret, a trace of guilt that I had not been able to make a wish.
Xu was fascinated by his behavior, Xu was fascinated by Lu Xue's pious expression, anyway, I didn't hear everyone call me, and when I came back to my senses, I only heard Zhou Ying say faintly, "Ambiguous is sugar, sweet to sadness." ”
