Chapter 14: The Secret That Was Discovered for the First Time

On Saturday, Ye'er rode a bicycle to pick me up from school again as before, the weather has begun to change from the warmth of spring to the heat of early summer, Ye'er is wearing a white wide-brimmed sunhat and a white dress, like a beautiful princess in a fairy tale, but the back of the clothes is soaked with sweat.

When we got home, Ye'er told me that her mother didn't allow her to come to see me anymore, saying that there was no girl who ran to her boyfriend's house every day, and that she would be laughed at by others if it was spread out like this, and that I should take the initiative to go to Ye'er's house to see her every week on her days off in the future. I have no way to meet such a mother-in-law, Ye Er said, it's not that you don't have a rut, but that they have a big family for her mother, and her mother can always find a seemingly appropriate reason and make you obey her, otherwise, the family will definitely be restless. Ye'er also said that her father has been accustomed to her mother's arrogance and arbitrariness for so many years, so he never participates in the big and small affairs of the family, eats, sleeps and fishes all day long, and doesn't care about anything else, and has her mother in charge of handling it, only in this way will the family be peaceful.

What to do? I have to do this, to be honest, I can't bear to see Ye'er so hard every week, only I go to that small fishing village every week to see Ye'er, the only inconvenience is that it is a little inconvenient to live in Ye'er's house, I have to go far away to fetch water to eat, and Ye'er's house only has two bedrooms, as long as I go, Ye'er can only sleep on a small bed by the wall outside.

In this way, every Saturday afternoon, I would take a good leave in advance to go to that small fishing village to see Ye'er, Ye'er's parents always came home very late, and Ye'er and I always cooked meals and waited for Ye'er's parents to come home. The life of fishermen is really hard, almost every day of the year in the wind and rain busy, but their income is very limited, not that there are not many fish catches, but the price of fish at that time is really cheap, the fish caught are a little smaller, it is almost impossible to sell, so every time he catches small fish, Ye'er's father always pours them into the river in baskets. Ye'er's parents always leave Ye'er's mother at home to accompany Ye'er after dinner, while Ye'er's father goes back to sleep on the boat, because the small fishing boat made of wood is the only tool they can make a living, and they have to watch it and guard it.

It was another Saturday afternoon, I came to Ye'er's house early, Ye'er was cooking in the kitchen, the fire was very strong, the weather was very hot, Ye'er was sweating profusely there, I wanted to help, Ye'er didn't want me to help, let me go to the main house to rest.

Yes, the kitchen is so small, both of them are there, and it is a little difficult to even turn around, so I had to turn around and go back to Ye'er's bedroom, intending to find a book to read, and accidentally saw a book in the drawer of Ye'er's bedside table, and there was a letter in the book, I thought it was the letter I wrote to Ye'er before, so I took it out without thinking and planned to read it, so that I could relive the passion when I wrote the letter at that time.

But the front of the envelope is an unfamiliar foreign address, I took out the letter in the envelope in confusion and read it, it turned out to be a letter written by a foreign man I don't know to Ye'er, it seems that they haven't known each other for a long time, the man in my heart wrote that since the last time I met Ye'er, I missed Ye'er very much after returning home, although it is not ambiguous, but it is enough to show that Ye'er and he had an occasional encounter, and then from a stranger who has never met to a lovesick person with letters。。。。。。

I was very angry, and immediately took this letter to the kitchen to ask Ye Er what was going on with this letter and this man, I obviously saw Ye Er stunned for a few seconds, and then denied the relationship between them, Ye Er said that this man was the boyfriend of one of her elementary school classmates, and they met when they played together, and she didn't know what was going on, and this man actually sent her such a letter after returning to his hometown.

When Ye'er explained this man and the letter to me, she was so determined and innocent that you had to believe that what she said was true.

However, Ye'er's explanation is obviously full of loopholes, and it is a lame lie at all, but why is Ye'er so eloquent and meticulous even if she lies!

I also pointed out indignantly without flinching, Ye'er, your words are obviously lying, if it is your classmate's boyfriend, then this man cannot understand your situation so clearly, let alone write to you so abruptly and let you receive his letter accurately. Even if you take 10,000 steps back, if this man is really the boyfriend of your elementary school classmate, then what is the relationship between you?

Because in that era, young men and women could only exchange letters if they were in a couple's relationship, and Ye Er didn't know this truth. Finally, I said angrily, if you don't tell me the truth, then I'll go back now, even if there is no bus, I will walk home.

Ye'er saw that I was really angry and angry, and Ye'er also knew that her lies did not fool me, and it was estimated that the paper could not contain the fire, so I had to admit it in the end. Ye Er said that this man was some time ago, she met on the mountain in the morning when she went up the mountain to stock, when this man was climbing the mountain to play, although this small fishing village is far away, but because it is not far from the sea, encountering bad weather such as strong winds and waves, there will always be fishing boats from other places to come in to shelter and dock to rest, this man is the last typhoon docked in their small pier to shelter from a foreign fishing boat, because the fishing boat is resting, a person feels bored so early in the morning decided to climb the mountain to play, just met Ye Er in the sheep herding, They got to know each other, chatted for a while and left each other's names and mailing addresses. In the end, Ye Er did not forget to swear to me that they had nothing to do with each other except correspondence, they were just ordinary friends!

Abusive? Player? Treachery? Skittish?...... These words never came to my mind at that time, and I could not and would not allow anyone to insult the woman I loved so much! I just believed Ye'er's words so naively and naively, maybe they were really just ordinary friends.

But is there such an ordinary friend who communicates letters at first sight? I was still sullen when I was eating, and Ye'er was surprisingly flattering to me.

I thought about it all night, got up the next morning, and when Ye'er went up the mountain to herd sheep, I told Ye'er's mother about it, maybe it was really the daughter Mo Ruomu, maybe Ye'er's mother had already known about it, but Ye'er's mother hesitated slightly, sighed and said to me: "You get married, according to your family's opinion last time, and you can get married when the summer comes." ”

Years later, I knew: This was the biggest mistake I had ever made in my life!
