Chapter 36: The Old Tree Blossoms (2)

The rise of what Dou Dabao said was stopped by me waving my hand.

At this time, I heard the man say among the half-aged couple: "Xian'er, don't think about it, eat it while it's hot." ”

The woman nodded: "Eat." ”

After saying that, as if he suddenly remembered something, he stood up, walked to the side, and came back with a small plastic bucket.

The man was surprised: "This is ......"

The woman gave him a blank look: "Why didn't you count?" ”

The man was stunned, then put down his chopsticks and got up: "I won't drink anymore...... I've been quitting for twenty years......"

The woman pressed one of his shoulders, and without much force, he sat down softly.

"Alas, it's all over here, what else are you talking about? Drink some, I'll drink some with you. As she spoke, the woman took two bowls, opened the plastic bucket, and poured half a bowl each.

……

Dou Dabao raised his nose: "Tsk, this is sweet potato dry wine, it is an old wine, I drank it when I was a child, but it is difficult to drink!" ”

"Shut up!" Pan Ying slapped him on the back of the head, and he immediately didn't dare to say more.

……

The woman picked up the wine bowl first, touched the man, took a sip, and then looked at the man faintly and asked:

"Remember the last time we had a drink?"

The man's expression was complicated, and he hesitated for a moment before he picked up the wine bowl, the wine did not touch his lips, but his eyes were red first, and he nodded:

"Know, remember. I got drunk again that day and hit you again; When you wake up at noon the next day, you've got the food ready...... It was the first and last time we drank together, and after that, I drank too much and you left. ”

The woman rubbed her nose, her eyes were red, but she said:

"Drink it, it's been many years, it's over, we can be together again, it's done."

……

This pair of elderly ...... No, the conversation between middle-aged men and women at the dinner table is really 'rich', and each sentence contains too much 'unexpected' and 'expected', but I can't describe the complicated feelings in it.

I only listened silently to most of the meal, and I barely summed up the approximate -

Men and women are lovers when they are young, and men are good drinkers, and they always drink under various excuses, and after drinking, they go crazy and beat women.

The woman was wholeheartedly with him, but in the end she was still cold.

Finally, after the two drank for the first and last time, they left the man.

After that, the two became their own families and each had their own lives.

It wasn't until 'not long ago', when we met again in the vast sea of people, that we regained the old love.

These two people are by no means inferior, after many years, the man has cultivated his virtue, but he has lost his wife;

The woman learns to be 'tolerant' but loses her husband.

……

"Line...... I'm sorry. The man wept.

The woman shook her head and pretended to be nothing: "Forget it, it's all like this, what else are you talking about?" It's been so many years, and if you can put it down, you can't put it down...... It's up again, what do you think I'm going to do? Should I kowtow to my old man underground and confess, or should I kneel down to my daughters and beg them? ”

The man simmered the wine in the bowl in one gulp, and as soon as he picked up the dry tobacco stick beside him, the woman had already brought up the match that was wiping.

"Woo...... That's it, I can't do without you in my life, it's all on this, I'll ask: You really don't blame me? ”

The woman picked up the rice bowl, looked at the man with a smile for a long time, and sighed:

"Resentment, resentment? I'm also getting older, and the kids in my family don't agree with us being together. I'm still with you. You've all come here, what are you talking about? What am I thinking, do you still guess? ”

The man was stunned for a moment, his eyes rolled up, as if looking at the roof: "We also inquired, this village is barren because of old hair and water." You and I are here, we can 'warm' for a while, hide for a while, and in the end, we may have to drown in the Yellow River......"

"Then drown. Drown ...... together"

……

At this point, the conversation is not over.

But somehow, in our opinion, the two just opened their mouths face to face, and there was no more sound!

"Hit!" The fat man suddenly knocked on the kang table, and said to me in an old-fashioned manner: "You helped my old friend, and I have to repay it for it." You say, what do you want? ”

My mind was still on the old couple who seemed to be '5D version close at hand', only rolled their eyes slightly, and said casually:

"I just want to be with the people I love."

"It's hard!" The fat man frowned, and patted the mud he had dug at the gate between his hands, "Your life is not good; For thou hast sinned earlier; You have a bad temperament, but you are too cross, and you have done things that are not what people should do;

I'll be straight now, because you've helped my old friend, and I have to thank you, it's a must; However, there are limits to the exchange of gifts! ”

I was still in a trance, but at this moment, I couldn't help but turn my eyes and wondered: "Senior, who are you?" What do you mean by that? Please be explicit. ”

The fat man coiled the lump of mud dug from the door back and forth in his hand, stared at me for a while, and said slowly:

"Thy eyes, and thy ears, thy mouth, thy nose...... Five Senses and Six Breaths...... I can't leave them all, I can't. ”

He suddenly flipped his palm and held the lump of cement in front of my eyes, but his mouth was a little strange and said:

"You said you only want to be with your lover, but if you can't be together, you can only leave two things, what do you want to stay?"

I didn't even think about it: "Ears and mouth! ”

"Why these two?" The fat man asked, squinting at me.

"What others say, I listen, is a blessing, that is what they are willing to tell me; Whatever I want to say, others can't stop it, it's my right! ”

"And then?" The fat man leaned in to me across the kang table, "What about the eyes?" You don't want the same old book anymore? ”

At this time, the 'fat man' seemed to have a kind of magic in every word he said.

However, I have always been proud of myself, and I have been able to control my emotions until now, but it seems that because of the two 'old couples' in the house, who have turned a blind eye to us, they have become a little unstable.

I was still restrained, but I turned to the fat man and blurted out:

"If you're me, what do you want to keep?"

The fat man and I looked at each other tightly for a while, and nodded with a slow roll of his eyes:

"As so, as you wish!"

As he spoke, he turned around and ignored me, only patting and kneading the clay between his palms.

……

The most attention of Dou Dabao and others and I still stayed on the couple who 'old trees bloomed', although they ...... Although they are all open mouths and do not speak at the moment, in the mirage ghost domain, the fleeting time takes us through their lives for a long time in the future. (Note: The most 'private' space between men and women is not included)

The truth is,

I was hooking shoulders with Dou Dabao, watching the old man eat and drink, and began to 'tease' each other between words.

I was waiting for the next step, but a large hand was on the shoulder:

"This is not what you want!"
