Chapter 11 Commitments

He Mian'er walked back to the small courtyard where she used to live alone, and there were people coming and going at the door, it was some of the people who were moving and the neighbors who came to watch the excitement.

"Mian'er, why did you come back alone, uncle?" Sister-in-law Jiang was sitting in the courtyard and looking after everyone, when she suddenly saw He Mian'er appearing alone, she immediately stood up and asked with concern. Although she has been in the backyard, she has also heard that her brother-in-law has another love in the past, and she has always had no good face for He Mian'er, for fear that He Mian'er will suffer.

"I can't go home, come back and see." He Mian'er casually lied and never mentioned Xu Yunqing's matter.

Sister-in-law Jiang probably saw that He Mian'er was hiding something, and she didn't ask any more, but just patted her on the shoulder with pity and said, "Uncle is back now, you can live a good life in the future." ”

He Mian'er looked at her expression, and knew that her sister-in-law was afraid that she remembered her husband, Xu Yunchang, and heard that the two were in love, Qin Se and Ming.

And it is said that Xu Yunchang and Xu Yunqing's brothers look quite similar, so it's no wonder.

He Mian'er sent her sister-in-law to sit in the sedan chair of the General's Mansion and told her to go to rest first.

In fact, this small courtyard was already empty, He Mian'er stepped into the room, and there were already few items in the room, only a few tables and chairs left, I am afraid that because of the old, the general's mansion will not look down on it.

For some reason, a little reluctance rose in her heart, this dilapidated and slightly cold place was the home she had lived in for the past three years, and the only place willing to accommodate her.

When Xu Yunqing found He Mian'er, she was standing alone in the empty courtyard, and her thin body made people feel a little more pity.

"I'm sorry, I ......" Xu Yunqing lowered his head and spoke, he was worried that she was still angry about leaving her in the afternoon. He wanted to explain that at that time, he might not have expected to meet Xie Wanqing on such an occasion, and he didn't have any preparation in his heart.

"Let's go." He Mian'er didn't seem to hear his apology, only said shallowly, and then strode out of the courtyard sideways, without looking back.

"I'll take you somewhere." Xu Yunqing probably couldn't help it, took the initiative to speak, and then stretched out his hand to her.

He Mian'er did not refuse, her fingers were interlocked, the man's hand was warm, and she held it very hard, even making her feel a little painful.

She didn't ask him where he was going to take her, or even where he was going, she trusted him completely, and cherished this opportunity to get along.

probably told myself with a faint sigh in my heart that such a day would be one day later, one day less.

It was already dusk, the twilight was low, and the sporadic pedestrians on the mountain road were all coming down, and it was really rare to walk up the mountain like them.

The road up the mountain was rugged and steep, Xu Yunqing held He Mian'er's hand tightly, and a few times, He Mian'er even suspected that he was lifted by Xu Yunqing.

The further up we go, the darker it gets, and the cool breeze in the valley blows in bursts, giving it a bit of a winter chill.

"It's here," Xu Yunqing stood in a low pavilion, with a little excitement in his voice, He Mian'er looked over, only to find that this was the mountain south of the city gate, halfway up the mountain.

In the distance, in the vast night, the lights of thousands of homes in the capital are dotted, and the stars are dotted, and it is quite pleasing to the eye when viewed from the mountain.

"It's a pity that there are no stars tonight." Xu Yunqing turned around and explained to He Mian'er. "When I was in Mobei, whenever I was homesick, I would always look up, look at the stars in the southern sky in the distance, and miss the people at home. The end of the world is at this time. ”

He Mian'er knew that when he looked up at the sky and looked at the stars again and again, he was afraid that there was no self among the people in his heart.

Even, he's afraid he doesn't remember her anymore.

"What is Mobei like?" He Mian'er no longer paid attention to the sadness in her heart, and asked with some curiosity, she rarely stood at such a height and looked into the distance. Before she left the cabinet, she was like a proud peacock, rarely lowered her head, and only had talented and beautiful women, love and love in her mind.

After getting married, she was bent by firewood, rice, oil and salt, and she didn't have time to look into the distance.

She had a strong interest in the distant Mobei where Xu Yunqing lived.

"Mobei, the desert is full of sand, the weather is very cold, and it is also very strange, and the wind blows more than here." Speaking of the past, Xu Yunqing's eyes darkened a lot, "However, the sky in Mobei is particularly clean, and it looks like the stars are big and bright, and they are very pure." ”

Probably looking at He Mian'er's yearning, Xu Yunqing suddenly said, "You haven't been to Mobei yet, have you?" One day in the future, I will take you to see the stars in Mobei. ”

"Okay." He Mian'er nodded lightly, but she knew in her heart that promising this kind of thing was the most unreliable. It's just that those who listen take it seriously, and those who say it are happy.

If the promise was reliable, how could he forget what he said to himself when he was eight years old, "Okay, little girl, when you grow up." Now that she was grown, he remembered nothing.

The beautiful twinkling stars in Mobei can probably only exist in her imagination in her mind.

Probably very satisfied with He Mian'er's reaction, maybe it was just because he hadn't communicated with people openly for a long time, Xu Yunqing slowly opened up the conversation box and told some interesting stories about his childhood.

"At that time, I was very naughty, and the master taught me such a thick stick." Xu Yunqing gestured with a stick the size of a bowl with both hands.

"The old lady must be distressed." He Mian'er interjected.

Hitting the son's body hurts in the mother's heart, and the old lady has always loved Xu Yunqing very much.

"My mother doesn't care." Xu Yunqing muttered a little aggrieved.

"What bad things did you do to make your master so angry, even the old lady doesn't care." He Luo looked at Xu Yunqing, who was now calm and even a little unsmiling, and it was hard to imagine that he had been naughty before.

"Sneak into the water." Xu Yunqing opened his mouth, and there was a half sentence in the back, but he didn't say it again, he was almost drowned, and the master was so frightened that he kept him all night, thinking that he would not survive.

"No wonder you're so good at water." He Mian'er praised, but in her heart, she never mentioned the matter of being rescued and repaid, since he didn't remember it, it would be useless for her to mention it again.

A trace of weirdness passed through Xu Yunqing's heart, he almost drowned because he didn't know the nature of water. Later, he was beaten by the master and did not dare to approach the pool for half a step, and he is still a landlubber.

How did He Mian'er know that he was good at water?

However, he didn't ask again, only gently hugged He Mian'er's shoulders and opened the topic.
