The nineteenth day of the winter month is his mother's birthday, and Ning Zhiyuan took leave to return home. The house was full of relatives, and he put down his things and was busy with Zhang Luo. At this time, Ning Qiushui came back, with three colleagues, two men and one woman. Ning Zhiyuan said hello and drank tea with him.

The female teacher Chi Xiaoxia is slender and beautiful, with short hair that reaches her ears, "Auntie, Auntie" shouted to Zhiyuan's mother, her voice was very sweet, and she was busy with Zhiyuan's mother. Ning Zhiyuan intuitively felt that this was the sister-in-law in the future.

After dinner, my brother and a few colleagues went back to school. Zhiyuan's mother urged, San'er, you should go back too. Ning Zhiyuan said, Mom, I asked for leave, and I'll be back tomorrow morning. Zhiyuan's mother had no choice but to rely on him, and said, you can watch it yourself.

When it got dark, Ning Zhiyuan sat in the courtyard dam, looking at the distant mountains in a daze. Suddenly, he remembered that the seventeenth day of the winter moon was Xue Mei's birthday, two days earlier than his mother, and he actually forgot it.

On the night of Xue Mei's birthday last year, the two sat in Zizhu Park, with cakes and candles on the lawn, and Xue Mei looked happy. He rubbed the tip of his nose against the tender face that was blown away, and murmured, Meimei, you are the best gift from God to me. She looked shy, opened the dishonest hand, and said coquettishly, you just know. He still remembers that the stars were especially bright that night. Now that everything is empty, people can't help but sigh deeply.

After sitting for a while, an idea popped up in Ning Zhiyuan's mind, would Xue Mei write a letter to me. He couldn't sit still and shouted into the room, Mom, I want to go back to school! Zhiyuan's mother said, if you don't leave in the afternoon, why do you go back so late. Ning Zhiyuan said eagerly, Mom, I'm leaving. Then he went out with a flashlight.

On the dark mountain road, Ning Zhiyuan walked with wind in both ears.

Back at school, the lights in the janitor's room had been turned off. He knocked on the door hurriedly and shouted, Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang, I am Ning Zhiyuan. The light in the communication room came on, opened the door, and asked, Mr. Ning, what is the matter? Ning Zhiyuan asked apologetically, do I have a letter? Uncle Wang said to himself, it seems that there is an oh, it was sent this afternoon.

Ning Zhiyuan hurriedly walked into the communication room and helped Uncle Wang rummage. Finally, he found his letter in a large stack of letters, and he ran to the bedroom with it, and floated a sentence, thank you, Uncle Wang, for your interruption. Uncle Wang said while closing the door, this young man!

Ning Zhiyuan opened the letter, and Xue Mei's beautiful pen words were printed in his eyes:

Zhiyuan:

It's been a long time, but it's been good lately! It's cold, have you put that sweater on? It fits! This is the first sweater I have knitted, and the style is very old-fashioned, so I will knit it for you again in the future!

I'm very happy to hear Uncle Meng talk about your situation this day! I'm sorry, I blame you. I had a bad temper that day, and I should have listened to your explanation! Do you still remember the sentence in the letter, "Once the sea was difficult to water, except for Wushan is not a cloud"? That's my attitude!

I asked Uncle Meng to tell you, I'll wait for you! But why don't you come to me? I am sad. Perhaps, you are not the best, but I took the initiative to choose yours, and what I like is the best choice! I know that you have suffered a lot, and you also have your responsibilities, and Auntie needs you. But I need you too! If you agree, I will be transferred to Qiancan Township School next year, and I am willing to work hard!

Zhiyuan, it's my birthday in a few days, can you come and spend it with me?

Lookout!

Mei Mei

Winter Moon Eleven

Ning Zhiyuan looked at the payment time, and then looked at the postmark time on the envelope, this damn remote town, a letter went for eight days.

Ning Zhiyuan was silent, and his mind was a mess. Meng Yunzhou wanted to speak and stopped, it should be Xue Mei's family who did not agree, and they did everything possible to stop it, he could imagine that Xue Mei was fighting hard alone, but how could her parents watch their children jump into the fire pit? In addition to love, what else can I give Xue Mei, living in this remote and barren town for a lifetime? Is this worthy of a beloved? Can you be so selfish?

After a series of self-questioning, Ning Zhiyuan was shaken, he made up his mind, he couldn't let Xue Mei come to Qiancan Township, otherwise he would feel guilty for the rest of his life! He reminded himself that the language of the reply should be cold, and he could not reveal his thoughts and feelings, so that Xue Mei would dispel all thoughts.

Ning Zhiyuan worked hard to write a book. This choice proves that he is selfish and cowardly, and only by letting the person he loves live a happy life is a real man's unrepentant choice! But he also knows very well how much damage this letter will cause to Xue Mei, but a long pain is better than a short pain, time will heal everything, and after many years, I believe she will understand.

At night, Ning Zhi dreamed of Xue Mei, one moment was a cheerful and happy smile, one moment was the back of running away with her ears covered, and one moment she was haggard and sad...... Several pictures alternately appeared, Ning Zhiyuan was running, shouting loudly, but he was always out of reach.

I woke up in the early hours of the morning with tears on my pillow.
