Chapter 32: In a Dream
The night he met Lu Yunshu, Xiao Qi had a dream.
The sky was flushed with purple gray, like the face of a terminally ill patient.
Xiao Qi leaned on the head of the bed, looking out the window tastelessly, staring at God's sick face.
He shouldn't have fallen asleep at this time, he still had something to do. Xu missed Lu Yunshu too much, and Zhou Gong forcibly summoned him into a dream and returned to his childhood.
He and her were childhood sweethearts.
Lang rode a bamboo horse and went around the bed to make green plums. When he was young, Lu Yunshu had a sheep's horn braid, a goose yellow skirt, a small face and meaty face, and big eyes that were clear and bright. At that time, General Lu was not as calm as he is now. Dressed in a green shirt, he leaned on the side with a wine jug, not like a war, but like a son who slipped out to buy wine and drink.
At that time, Xiao Qi was also a child with pigtails.
They have known each other since childhood, and their tacit understanding is unparalleled - one is mischievous, the other is unskilled, and they are skilled. Lu Yunshu is often the one who mischievous.
There was a big tree next to Xiao's house, Xiao Xiao Qi and Xiao Yunshu held hands, and they couldn't measure the big tree's body. The roots of the big tree are knotted, and the parasitic vines on the branches hang down thousands of filaments, and when Lu Yunshu was a child, he always pointed to the big tree and shouted weeping willows.
One winter, when the new snow first arrived, Lu Yunshu pulled Xiao Qi to climb a tree and dig out a bird's nest. Regardless of where the bird's nest comes from in winter, just climbing trees in the cold winter is enough to make Xiao Xiao, who is like a little adult, frown.
Xiao Xiaoqi's face was full of reluctance, holding the stove in his hand and being staggered and dragged away by Xiao Yunshu, and persuaded her bitterly: "In the cold winter, the birds have flown away, and there is no bird's nest to dig out." Besides, if you fall, it hurts. ”
Xiao Yunshu didn't care about it, pouted and pulled him: "Let's go, if there is a bird's nest, I won't know until I dig it." Why are you so afraid of the cold, and you have to bring a stove with you when you come out. ”
Xiao Xiaoqi sighed, no longer obstructed Lu Yunshu, and walked under the tree with her. "It's not for you, you don't like to wear more clothes every time you go out. When I come back later, if my mother sees that your hands are frozen blue, she should scold me again. He held the stove in one hand, took Lu Yunshu in the other, and led her around a ground covered with thin ice: "Look at the road more." It just snowed last night and the ground was slippery. ”
Lu Yunshu obediently let him lead, but his eyes were wandering uneasily. She saw the new vendors on the side of the road, yawning and putting their wares on the cart. Her eyes were sharp, and she caught a glimpse of the object in the peddler's hand, like a small cylinder, red and bright...... She pulled Xiao Qi excitedly: "Look! Firecrackers! ”
Lu Yunshu has been thinking about the Spring Festival since the beginning of winter. In particular, the fireworks and firecrackers that can only be bought during the Chinese New Year are talked about. I finally saw it today, ignoring the sparse ice and snow on the ground, and rushed to the stall with Xiao Qi: "Uncle, how do you sell your firecrackers!"
The peddler was first frightened by the little ball that rushed over, and when he looked closely, he saw that it was a cute little girl with Yuxue, and behind him was a reluctant little boy holding the stove. He looked at this strange combination, and he couldn't help but laugh a little, and he was in a good mood. He replied with a smile: "One copper plate for firecrackers, one for twenty copper plates, and one for five copper plates for fireworks, go and call your adults to buy them." Little girl, why are you holding the hand of the other boy? Look at people, their brows are wrinkled into folds, and they think of you. ”
Lu Yunshu was stunned for a moment, and when he looked back at Xiao Qi, he did have a sad face and a bitter look. She sighed, followed Xiao Qi's little adult's example, and said to the peddler, "Uncle, he's like this." Put on a stinky face every day to show me, what can I do. Xiao Qi was a little helpless, and wanted to open his mouth to defend himself, but was preempted by the hawker: "Put on a stinky face every day, it's not okay for a boy to have such a bad temper." Who is he, you don't look like brothers and sisters. ”
Lu Yunshu didn't think about it, and blurted out: "He is my husband." He doesn't have a bad temper, he just loves to frown. Frown, just frown, whatever, you can't leave. Look at the stove in his hand, he brought it to me. ”
The peddler was amused by this child's words, leaned down, and asked Xiao Qi in a wilted manner: "Boy, she said that you are her husband, do you recognize it?"
Xiao Qi nodded a little inexplicably: "Yes, she is my wife." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Lu Yunshu: "How many fireworks do you want?" Lu Yunshu tilted his head and thought for a while, then stretched out his hand to the vendor who was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth: "Please bring me a firecracker and two fireworks, thank you, uncle."
When Xiao Qi heard this, he folded his hands and calculated, took out thirty copper plates from his pocket and put them on the stall.
The peddler was speechless when he saw that the two of them looked at each other with a look of concern. He stopped laughing and took a breath, swept away the copper plate on the table, touched two firecrackers and four fireworks and put them in a paper bag, and handed them to Lu Yunshu: "At a young age, you know how to spend a man's money, and the little girl will be great when she grows up." Let's go play with your husband, more firecrackers are given to you by your uncle, it's almost the New Year, and good things come in pairs. Be careful when you play, don't get hurt. ”
Xiao Qi stepped forward, put the stove into Lu Yunshu's hand, and took the paper bag himself.
This is the mouth of the alley, and the cold wind sweeps through from time to time, and the tip of Lu Yunshu's nose is a little red.
The two thanked the vendor and walked in the direction of the Lu family, whose large courtyard was suitable for setting off firecrackers. And from the uncontrollable laughter of the hawker behind him, he concluded: the adults are strange.
Lu Yunshu hugged the warm stove, and was very excited, but there was something in his hand, which was not suitable for jumping, so he could only turn his head from time to time to look at the paper bag in Xiao Qi's arms. The stove is a special small object with carbon in it, which can warm up for a long time.
As he walked, Lu Yunshu suddenly asked, "Xiao Qi, if I weren't your wife, would you be so good to me?"
Xiao Qi looked at her, a little puzzled: "Why do you ask that?" We are married by adults, and we can't change it. You can only marry me. ”
Xiao Yunshu smiled innocently at him, and as he spoke, his figure gradually lengthened, becoming tall and slender, vaguely showing the appearance of Lu Yunshu now. "Not necessarily," she said.
Why not necessarily? You can only marry me. Lu Yunshu's figure became fading more and more, Xiao Qi stretched out his hand a little dazedly, and the paper bag containing firecrackers fell to the ground......
The vivid picture in front of him gradually faded, Xiao Qi opened his eyes, and what he saw was the sky looking at him across the window lattice. He was just dreaming.
He remembered that Lu Yunshu already had someone he liked, and he wouldn't be his wife anymore.
Not anymore......
The boy doesn't cry, but he doesn't get to the sad place. Now Xiao has a dream, and the dream is wet.
