followed Kaohsiung back from Canada and returned to the daily life of chicken feathers again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In order to make my pregnancy feel better, Kaohsiung and Mr. Yichen asked me to go to Kyoto to see the cherry blossoms.

After settling in, it was dark and the lights were on. I changed into a white embroidered kimono, combed my hair in a high bun, arranged flower ornaments and hairpins, stepped on clogs, carried a handbag, and went out with them to explore the famous Higashiyama Hanato Road.

At night, we slowly walked along the 5-kilometer walking trail at the foot of Higashiyama. It starts at Shoren-in Temple and extends to Kiyomizudera Temple via Maruyama Park and Yasaka Shrine.

There are 2,500 street lamps and cherry blossoms on both sides of the road.

I love the shadows that sway between the white walls, stone steps, and trees, and the warm glow cast by the paper lanterns in front of the shop.

This bustling lantern road full of tourists reminds me of the famous sentence in Zheng Zhiwen's "Jinling Yuanxi Chapter" in the Ming Dynasty: "The painting is painted in front of the lamp under the flowers, and the fragrance of clothes is dark all the way." I don't know that the south stranger is like the moon, and the woman at the east gate is like a cloud. "The lanterns are like people everywhere, and they look at Bao Lao before the half-drunk feast. He Ke is late in front of the lamp, and who can return early. ”

After walking for a while, Mr. Yichen saw that the business of the restaurants along the way was very good, and the door was full of people, so he said that he would go to the front to find a suitable hotel and book a seat, and let Kaohsiung accompany me to walk over slowly.

We made an appointment to meet at the railing of the big wisteria tree in front of us, and Mr. Yichen quickened his pace to the front, and quickly disappeared in the crowd.

I followed behind Kaohsiung, and we walked silently in the light and shadow.

Halfway down the road, Kaohsiung said: "It's too beautiful to walk on such a beautiful road with someone like me." ”

He said, "I know what's on your mind right now. ”

I said, "What was I thinking?" ”

"You're thinking about how nice it would be if this person was around you," he said. ”

He looked at me with blazing eyes. He said, "You think so, right? ”

I bowed my head and didn't speak.

Kaohsiung said: "Although I am not him, and you have never been close to me, but, now, it is better to have someone walking with you than for you to walk alone on the road." ”

I said, "Brother Kaohsiung." Sometimes, I feel very lonely. However, I also always knew that I was not alone. There are some people, once you have met him, you will never be alone. ”

Kaohsiung said: "Yes. Some people, yes. He has such power. ”

I said, "Actually, you are the same. You also have special powers. In your heart. ”

We stood down.

Kaohsiung said, "So, what about you? Will you do that? ”

He said, "Will you allow yourself to have that power too?" ”

He said, "When are you going to make yourself have that power?" ”

Kaohsiung said: "It's been so many years. You're about to become a mother, how long do you want him to wait? ”

(b)

When I was a teenager, I used to say to you, "Guidance, I often feel inferior in front of you. In many ways, it was done particularly poorly. ”

You laugh a little.

You say, "I don't think you're like that." ”

You say, "A bad heart never feels inferior or does not feel particularly bad." ”

(c)

We had dinner at a restaurant near Todaikoji Temple.

After eating, I felt a little bloated in my stomach, a wave of nausea, and the air in the room was filled with all kinds of suspicious smells that made people churn.

So, Mr. Yichen stayed to pay the bill, and Kaohsiung walked out first with me.

We returned to the glittering streets and surrounded ourselves by the colorful flower arrangement exhibits.

Kaohsiung said: "If you feel uncomfortable, I'll accompany you back to the hotel first." Lao Liang can't find us for a while, so he will go back by himself. ”

I nodded. Let's go back.

When I was about to walk to the door of the hotel, I suddenly felt Kaohsiung grab my hand. Then, I had something more in my palm.

I looked at him in amazement.

He said, "Take this note." Go back to the hotel, enter the room, and open it again. ”

I said, "What's the matter?" What is written on the note? ”

Kaohsiung grinned and said, "Confess." An affectionate confession to you. ”

I said, "What a joke! ”

I said, "Do you have to bring it up every once in a while?" ”

Kaohsiung smiled brightly and said, "What if you suddenly change your mind?" I don't want to miss this historic opportunity! ”

"I just want to reiterate that as long as you change your mind, nothing is going to be an obstacle," he said. Our existing marriage, the children in your womb, my children, none of these will be obstacles. ”

I looked at him, sighed deeply, and said, "You're so idle." ”

"If you're bored, there's a dumpster 3 meters ahead, and you can throw it away right now," Kaohsiung said. ”

He said, "My mind is never anything to you, is it?" ”

There was something in his words that made me feel ashamed.

I said, "Forget it." ”

He said, "Don't you throw it?" ”

I said, "Aren't you disappointed that no one reads your jokes?" ”

He said, "Don't you want to disappoint me? ”

I bowed my head. I said, "Sometimes. ”

(iv)

in the room. I closed the door.

I stood against the door.

I looked down at the note in my palm.

Do you want to open the note?

I hesitated. Then he said in his heart: Let's see, what he has written.

The paper roll slowly unfolds from left to right, revealing Kaohsiung's neat traditional handwriting:

"Tonight's wind carries the scent of early cherry blossoms.

You have many kinds.

Plump, light, men's dress, no makeup.

A round is like a dream like a phantom moon,

A flower is like a flower. ”

(5)

The phone in the room rang.

It's Kaohsiung.

He said, "Are you reading the note?" ”

I said, "Hmm. ”

He said, "Did my sentence move you?" ”

I said, "Where did you copy it?" ”

He laughed over there: "I've seen through it." But that's what I want to say. From the bottom of my heart. INTERVIEWER Are we really going to keep making mistakes like this? Never give yourself a chance to start over again? Never give me a chance? ”

He said, "Try me out." I'm much better than your current husband. ”

I avoided answering his questions.

I said, "Do you know the words that come after this sermon?" ”

He asked, "Is there anything else behind?" ”

I said, "Yes." ”

"What is it?" he asked. ”

I said, "I'll tell you." The next line is: Although I like her, I don't want her to know, because I understand that what I can't get is always the best. ”

He said, "Looks like I quoted it wrong? ”

I said, "Yes." You're quoting the wrong one. ”

(f)

Kaohsiung said, "Open the door." ”

I said, "Where are you?" ”

He said: "Old place. Right outside your door. Kneel. Hold the ring. And roses. ”

I sighed and said, "Don't be crazy. Go back to sleep, you're so old. Give a dog a bad name and hang him. Others will laugh at it. ”

"And pistols," he said. ”

I sighed again and walked over to open the door.

Kaohsiung hugged a fluffy bunny and snuggled against the door frame with a smile.

He said, "For you." ”

I said, "You can't bring live animals back home." ”

He said, "Just raise it in Kyoto, in your stepfather's house." ”

He said: "I have long been used to rejecting my love. Take it, though. Don't let it be homeless or, like you, fall into the hands of a bastard. You should have compassion for each other. ”

The little rabbit crawled out of the crook of his arm and burrowed into my arms.

I couldn't help but hug it.

It looked up at me. The eyes are shining.

It suddenly kissed me on the cheek, and the dry, warm tongue licked the skin off my face.

It licked my face with all the time.

Kaohsiung said: "That note made your heart beat faster in an instant." ”

I kissed the bunny and said, "Enough trouble." ”

"I heard it," he said. Just now. A woman's heartbeat intensified by me. ”

I said, "Tutu, I want it." ”

He said, "There is finally one thing that you have not refused." ”

I said, "Good night." ”

He moved a little away from the doorframe.

I smiled at him.

He said: "Xinxin, the way you are pregnant is really glorious. ”

I said, "Good night." ”

I closed the door and hung the burglar chain from the inside.

Kaohsiung stood in the hallway, looking at the closed door.

The elevator clanged.

Mr. Yichen stepped out of the open elevator door.

He looked strangely at Kaohsiung and the closed door.

He said, "What are you doing here?" Said that you would meet at the front, and you slipped away first? ”

Kaohsiung smiled brightly.

He said: "As soon as I remembered a very romantic poem, I came back to her and gave it to her to see if I could move her." ”

Mr. Yichen said in surprise: "You? Poem? ”

Kaohsiung said, "Can't you? ”

Mr. Yichen said, "Write about ostriches? ”

Kaohsiung said, "No. Romantic. ”

Mr. Yichen looked up at the ceiling and said, "Is she moved?" ”

Kaohsiung said: "Of course I was moved. Because, at the same time, I also gave her a very cute little bunny. It rushed over and kissed her. ”

Mr. Yichen said, "And then?"

Kaohsiung said: "Then she shut me out and took the little rabbit cub to bed. ”

Mr. Yichen finally couldn't help but say, "Brother Gao, you are really getting more and more humorous. ”

Breakfast.

We met again in the restaurant.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Kaohsiung handed me a glass of orange juice.

"That's good." I say.

He said, "Don't mind if I make that little joke." ”

I said, "Does it have to be so performant?" The boss is not small. ”

He grinned a little.

He said, "No." In this way, life will not be too monotonous. ”

The early cherry blossoms all over the city bloomed in patches overnight, and they were like clouds.

(x)

In "The Tale of Higashiyama", I wrote this passage:

- "As an adult, have you ever felt a woman's body temperature?" Ever heard her heartbeat intensified by you? Ever smelled the smell of milk on a baby's body? Have you ever seen the clouds in the sky open and fog disperse? For whom have tears been shed, can't you stop it? Is there anyone in the world who loves you and would die for you? ”

- "None of this has happened yet. ”

- "Well, how can you say that you are an adult?" ”

After Kaohsiung saw it, he showed a weird smile. Then he said to me, "It turns out that I am still an underage. ”

Bai Aya walked barefoot on clogs, and went up to Dongshan Lantern Road.

(xii)

At dusk at the end of summer in Kyoto, the coolness of the evening breeze pushes the flowers and leaves that refuse to wither.

At the moment when the sun sets and melts gold, it seems that the lanterns of the entire Dongshan Road are lit up in turn, and the lights on the mountain road are lit as if they are in a different world.

A bright red torii gate.

The ancestral hall to which the bluestone pavement leads.

The stone statue of the fox fairy in front of the temple has a red thread around its neck, and I don't know which girl left her wish to marry.

On the mountain road, there is still the smell of the ladies' clothes and laughter.

(xiii)

"True and false. What exactly are you going to do? Mr. Yichen asked.

I said, "Sometimes, when the wood is already in the boat, the wrong thing is the best choice." ”

I said, "Pull the hair and move the whole body." As adults, we can't just think about ourselves. Right. ”

Mr. Yichen said: "In the end, won't you have regrets? ”

I said, "How many people can have a life without regrets." ”

I said, "That's it, and then I'm content." ”

(xiv)

"She said that the wood is already in the boat, so it is better to make mistakes." Mr. Yichen said.

"I know." Kaohsiung said.

Kaohsiung said: "When I was a child, I had a homeroom teacher who always told us, you should not be too possessive. He said, "Remember what I said, and one day in the future, you will understand that what I said is right." ”
