People can only understand themselves better after experiencing some things.

In front of his grandfather's tombstone, Meng Xin opened his heart for the first time, telling the pain and longing in his heart.

"Grandpa, I'm leaving. I'll be back to see you all the time in the future.

Don't worry about me, I'll live well. When I returned to Haicheng, I took the time to go for a psychological consultation.

I believe that it has persevered for so many years. In the future, I will be able to persevere. ”

Until watching the sun go down, only a red cloud remained in the sky, and the cemetery bathed in the slanting sun became warm, not as cool as in the past.

Meng Xin walked down the highest steps step by step in the direction of the setting sun, and couldn't help but look back frequently.

Until my grandfather's tombstone was hidden under countless neatly arranged tombstones, I could only remember the approximate location when I looked back.

"Grandpa, rest in peace!"

Looking up, the sky was fading into the clouds, and the cemetery was calm again, with a hint of shade.

"When did you start smoking?"

As soon as Meng Xin came out of the cemetery, he saw Yi Jiaxiang standing there with a cigarette in his hand.

There is a sign at the entrance of the cemetery that says no smoking in the park, and Yi Jiaxiang stood and smoked in the smoking area at the entrance after coming out of the cemetery. From time to time, his eyes glanced at a certain location in the cemetery, from which he could see the tombstone at the top.

"Don't you women think that men are the most attractive when they smoke?"

Although he said so, he still snuffed out the cigarette in his hand directly on the ashtray.

"I didn't find the charm, so lonely that I was a little? What's been unhappy lately? ”

In his memory, he did not smoke, and he was more aware of the dangers of smoking, and there was no place to sell cigarettes here, which could only be said to be his own.

"No, let's go back."

The nostalgic hits playing in the car, a song that the capital is familiar and resonant. Both of them listened quietly and did not talk.

After going down the mountain, I went to a random restaurant in the town with an open door and ordered a few dishes, and the boss could still recognize Meng Xin.

"Isn't this Xin Xin of the old Meng family? It's really the eighteenth change of the female university, and she is getting more and more beautiful. ”

Yu Bo's family has opened a restaurant on this street for decades, and after the town's urban transformation, it has changed a lot, and after the development of tourism, the number of restaurants, restaurants, and hotels on the street has increased significantly. Before my grandfather's retirement, I heard that the factory had been relocated, and at the same time, a group of workers from other places had been moved, but I didn't expect that there would be so many acquaintances.

"Thank you, Yubo!"

Seeing acquaintances again, Meng Xin was also in a trance for a while, as if he had returned to the days when he was shopping and playing with his friends again.

"You're welcome, I heard that you work in a big hospital outside, and now you're out of breath, this time I'm coming back to sweep the grave of your grandfather." Seeing that you are so good now, Uncle Meng and Aunt Meng will be happy for you. ”

Yu Bo is still the same as before, and he can't help but chat a few more words when he meets acquaintances.

"Yu Bo, we're really hungry, let's get us a few of your specialties first. Meng Xiaoxin rarely came back, and he wanted to taste the taste of his hometown. ”

Yi Jiaxiang saw Meng Xin's embarrassment, so he opened his mouth to relieve her.

"You already knew that this was a restaurant owned by Uncle Yu's family?"

Meng Xin looked at Yi Jiaxiang as if he was very familiar, and couldn't help but ask.

"Isn't Aoyama developed for tourism? When I have time, I will drive over with my colleagues to play, and there are a few shops on the street, so I naturally know it. ”

Yi Jiaxiang has also stayed in Jiangcheng alone over the years, to put it bluntly, it is also because there are things that cannot be let go.

Jiang Yuanzhen has too many memories, and when he is usually in a bad mood, he will drive over for a walk.

"Didn't I leave you a key to my house, if you come to Jiang Yuan, you can live at home. I'm thinking about whether I want to come back for the time being, so you should come over and help me look at the house. ”

Knowing that Yi Jiaxiang must be very busy in normal times, but Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yuan are not far away, Meng Xin suddenly mentioned it. Yu Bo quickly served the food, and Meng Xin expressed his gratitude again.

"You're going to keep this house forever? Now the house price here has increased several times, and the location of your home is good, and there is an independent garden, the price is certainly not cheap. If you sell, the money should allow you to buy a house in Haicheng. ”

Meng Xin has always rented a house, Yi Jiaxiang knows it, and has heard her complain about the landlord's behavior. The house price in Haicheng is more expensive than that in Jiangcheng, and she must not be able to afford it with her current salary, but buying this house is different.

"No, it's my home."

Meng Xin refused without thinking about it, no matter whether she had money in her hand or not, she never moved the idea of selling the house. At the beginning, her grandfather insisted that the house was left to her alone. Whether she comes back to live or not, in her heart, this is the only place to live.

"Do you want to rent it out? You can take out a loan to buy an apartment in Haicheng, and the rent is enough to help you pay off the mortgage. It's a little more reassuring that the house is occupied. ”

Meng Xin didn't know why Yi Jiaxiang forced her so much, she didn't understand, he had never mentioned the house before.

"I'll think about it."

Thinking that he was also well-intentioned, Meng Xin didn't refuse, in her heart, she actually didn't want to rent it out.

"Oh!"

Yi Jiaxiang glanced at Meng Xin and bowed his head and was silent. He actually wanted to use the matter of the house to test Meng Xin's attitude.

She resolutely did not sell, he was happy, but also worried. But she agreed to consider renting out the house, and he was even more entangled.

He wanted her to let go of the past,

I don't want her to forget all about the past.

Over the years, it is not only Meng Xin who can't come out, but also him who has witnessed the whole process.

Both men try to avoid talking about the past.

But the past has not left them, but has accumulated deeper and deeper with the deposition of time. to the point where no one dares to touch it easily.

"You went to the bar last night?"

Yi Jiaxiang only got the news outside the cemetery, which is why he left that pile of cigarette butts.

There will always be something that touches on the past that they want to forget but can't forget.

"Well, you know that?

The man provoked me,

You know, I can't take it! ”

Meng Xin didn't want to explain, but in the face of Yi Jiaxiang, she felt that she didn't need to hide it.

"It's okay! If you can't bear it, don't put up with it.

You didn't do anything wrong!

Just next time, don't be alone. ”

Yi Jiaxiang was naturally more worried about her. And appearing at the bar in the middle of the night worries him.

"There will be no next time. I'm not always so unlucky. ”

Meng Xin smiled self-deprecatingly.

More helplessness!
