Chapter 20: Fireflies Fly
Lin Mengfan, who was about to go home, sat on a complete white boat with Dumb, watching the wooden boat swim out of the fluorescent Buyun Bridge little by little.
She left the wonderful world of stories and paraded on a boat on a summer night, at night in addition to the green glow of the moss on the stone walls of the bridge and cave, she also looked at the river at night, where the scattered fireflies were glowing green.
The little girl got off the white wooden boat, held the little hand, and led the little boy to run on the green grass by the river, happily chasing the green fireflies.
"Dumb, look! That's the green lantern! Mom said that fireflies are little green lanterns on summer nights! Lin Mengfan smiled expectantly, staring at the green light that would be bright for a while and dim for a while.
Dumb didn't dare to speak, worried that she would be sad when she mentioned that Lin Mengfan didn't have a mother, and he hoped that the little girl could grow up happily.
Lin Mengfan didn't hear Dumb's voice, and her face was a little disappointed, but soon, she sang a children's rhyme loudly: "The black sky, low."
The bright stars follow each other, the insects fly, the insects fly
Who are you missing? ……”
Dumb listened to Lin Mengfan's singing, although it was very good, her singing voice was always full of sadness.
What about Lin Mengfan? She burst into tears as she sang, and even though the tears kept rolling in her eyes, she was still as tenacious as usual.
Even if Lin Mengfan would be so sad that she cried as soon as she opened her mouth to sing the song her mother taught her, she still chose to keep singing.
"The stars in the sky weep, the roses on the earth wither, the cold wind blows, the cold wind blows, as long as you are with you! Insects fly, flowers sleep, pair after pair of beautiful, not afraid of the dark, only afraid of heartbreak, no matter whether tired or not, and regardless of the ...... of the southeast, northwest and north."
Dumb admires her very much for being able to sing a song to the end, and even more admires her singing voice with its own sound music.
And Lin Mengfan's singing voice is so desolate, like a snowflake that quietly falls on the earth on a winter night, with a kind of loneliness and sadness of searching.
At the same time, the little girl longs for love and someone to be by her side, and she sings the longing in her heart into her voice and expresses her wish through music.
The little boy followed Lin Mengfan quietly, listening to her sing all the way, singing from the street of the town to the gate of the courtyard in the countryside before stopping.
Fireflies flying in the night, flashing green, flew behind the little girl in the red dress, and the fluorescent light gradually disappeared around her......
The night was not too long, as the day grew brighter, the stars lost their light, and both the green lantern and the little boy disappeared before dawn came.
As soon as Lin Mengfan turned around, she was standing under the vine bamboo frame in the yard, and the shelves were also full of bunches of half-green and half-purple grapes, and the green grapes and purple grapes were stained with morning dew.
At this time, she was holding a puppet in her hand, and its eyes were as blue as the sky.
As soon as she looked up, it was dawn, and the warm sun shone on her, and the dawn shone on the leaves of the vines, green with a hint of orange.
Lin Mengfan picked a bunch of ripe purple grapes, sucked the flesh in the grape skin, and said to the puppeteer: "When I taste the sweet grape, I will feed you another sweet one." ”
The puppeteer didn't respond, so she assumed Dumb agreed. She hung it on the vine and ate it with the grapes.
