"Xian'er, look at them, although their families are poor, they often have wives and children by their side, even if they are bitter, they are sweet."

Shang Jingyao didn't understand the deep meaning of Su Zhen's words, so she just nodded cateringly, "Hmm! ”

"There are countless beautiful scenery in our Huaili Township, ten miles of fragrant fragrance next to the embankment stone bridge, and the twilight rain between the lights and shadows of the autumn mountains. I don't know that the countryside is full of spring dawn, and I can't see the glorious ruins of the ancient temple. A few years ago, due to a famine, the villagers fled to Kyoto. Nowadays, every April, many people come back to worship their ancestors and seek their roots. ”

Shang Jingyao looked at the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, it had grown into a towering ancient tree, and it took seven or eight people to embrace.

It's the middle of July, and the trees are full of locust flowers, and the bell-shaped calyxes are pale yellow. The simple and ordinary locust flowers are not as graceful and atmospheric as the peony, and they are even more ordinary than the delicate peach blossoms. They mostly grow in rural mountain villages, among the poor and remote areas. Enduring the wind and rain all year round, tenacious and tenacious proud growth.

The fragrance of a thousand trees is fragrant, like winter snow entering the world, dyeing the ground into frost.

Shang Jingyao picked up a locust flower from the ground, the sweet nectar was refreshing, and a happy smile rippled on her lips. Standing still, laughter rang in his ears when he closed his eyes.

"Xiao Xian'er... Xiao Xian'er...... Come on! We're here! ”

"It's over here! Oops, you're so stupid! It's over here! ”

"Hahahaha! How did you hit the tree! ”

Suddenly, Shang Jingyao saw four children running and playing hide and seek under the big locust tree. The shortest of them all, the little girl in blue, with her eyes covered in a white cloth, stumbled around and trotted around to catch people. He didn't cry bitterly after hitting the tree, he slapped the dust off his shirt and got up from the ground again, ripped off the white cloth, rubbed his red forehead, and opened his fleshy arms to his sisters to hug him.

Seeing that the other three little girls were standing still and not moving, and even laughed, she rubbed her eyes with her dirty little hands and cried loudly. When the sisters came forward worriedly, she smiled slyly, grabbed a large handful of acacia flowers from the ground, and threw them at them.

New slapsticks and laughter sounded again, and when they were tired, they lay flat on the soft ground covered with acacia flowers.

"Gardenia, bring your sisters back, my mother made your favorite locust cake."

The figure of the woman in the distance loomed, Shang Jingyao's heart twitched and stinged, and she couldn't help but walk towards that side.

However, her wrist was suddenly grabbed, and when she came back to her senses, she saw Su Zhen looking at her with a solemn expression.

"Xianggong, I seem to remember, my name is Xian'er, I have three sisters, and one seems to be called Gardenia......"

'My name is Gardenia, and you must not forget me. ’

The gentle female voice seemed to come from the bottom of her dusty heart, unlocking the door that had already been locked by her own hands.

She ...... It seems to be called a green gardenia? Is it Yue Qingyu? ”

When Su Zhen heard this, her eyes didn't show much joy, and she said in a faint voice, "You're right, your eldest sister's name is Qing Yu, the second sister is Yu, and the third sister is Xiyan." ”

Every time she heard a name from Su Zhen's mouth, many unfamiliar memories flashed through her mind. It's all the same face, but it looks like they're playing completely different roles in different places.

Memories of the past were gradually revived, and she crouched down in pain, clutching her head tightly, and the countless strange memory fragments made her almost collapse.

Su Zhen then squatted in front of her, raising her hand to wipe the tears from her face.

"Don't cry, you'll be able to see them soon. If my sisters see that I treat you badly, maybe they won't let you go home with me. In the future, there will be no lady by your side, and you will have to be lonely for the rest of your life. ”

Shang Jingyao slowly raised her head when she heard this, her eyes were constantly changing, and finally she just nodded her head, "Okay!" ”

The deceased has been away from the years, and has been dreaming of aging and drinking alone. Embroidered screen smoke cage streamer, light smell the dark fragrance of locust petals.

According to Su Zhen, her maiden home is in the east of the village, and this way home is very familiar to her, as if she has already walked thousands of times. Even if you close your eyes, you can find the location of your home without any problems.

In the distance, the green hills are craggy, towering into the clouds. Wheat is planted in the fields on both sides of Moshang, the hot wind blows, the golden ears are connected, and the spectacular rolling wheat waves can predict that the villagers will have a good harvest this year.

After about two incense sticks, Shang Jingyao followed Su Zhen to a farmhouse. The familiar scene made her eyes wet involuntarily, and she stood in front of the door, raised her hand to caress the fence, and felt a butterfly-shaped notch below.

Forced to raise his chin with a smile, as if he wanted to turn back the tears that were about to burst out of his eyes. Her feet seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, so heavy that she couldn't lift them even if she tried her best, as if she had taken deep roots in the ground.

Su Hao patted her shoulder, "Xian'er, let's go in." ”

"I... I...... No! I want to go back. ”

Shang Jingyao's right hand trembled uncontrollably, she was in a dilemma, and she completely lost her courage.

"What's wrong? Others are cowardly in their hometowns, but you're good, you don't even dare to see your parents? ”

Su Zhen laughed a few words, grasped her hand with good strength, pushed open the fence door and stepped in together.

"Don't, don't! No, no, no! I can't! ”

Shang Jingyao twisted her wrist, trying to break free from Su Hao's hands.

Before he could finish speaking, he saw a peasant woman come out of the house. She was followed by a girl dressed in purple cloth, with a cloth towel tied up in her hair, and in her hand a dustpan sieve woven with bamboo strips, which was full of millet, and the grains were golden, and there was no black gravel at all as far as the eye could see.

She was stuck in her throat, her nose was sour, and her eyes were blurred with tears.

"Mother! Second sister! ”

"Ah, Xian'er? Youning? Are you back? Sit inside! ”

"The son-in-law has seen his mother-in-law, the second sister."

Su Zhen was no more panicked than Shang Jingyao, who was out of proportion, with a calm step and a modest attitude.

Yue Kuiyu put the dustpan on the bamboo frame, wiped some rough hands on his clothes, walked quickly to them, and took Shang Jingyao's hand affectionately, "Xian'er, you won't say anything in advance when you come back, can you little couple eat at noon?" In this way, you can talk to your father and mother in the house, and I will do some later. ”

"Second sister, don't be busy, Xian'er just misses you, so she pulled Xianggong back together."

Shang Jingyao was so excited that she had already bitten her lip, and she remembered that among those chaotic memories, the most profound of them was that her family had passed away thirteen years ago.

A rugged man walked out of the house when he heard the voice, and Yue Xian'er's eldest sister Yue Qingyu and third sister Yue Xiyan appeared at the same time.

Seeing the ecstasy and horror in her eyes, Yue Zuwen frowned dissatisfiedly, their family has always put their little daughter on the tip of their hearts, and they came back crying less than two years after they got married, could it be that they were wronged by the Su family?
