Chapter 30: Forgot
Huicheng, Wenyingge
At the beginning of the lanterns, the noisy streets returned to calm at this moment, pedestrians went home one after another, the shops were closed to rest, Changyu Youle sat in Wenying Pavilion for a whole day, and it was considered to have a new feeling for this town, the simple and honest folk customs and the comfortable and gentle atmosphere made people involuntarily produce an inexplicable sense of belonging in it.
It's just that no matter how good the scenery is, when it changes, Feng Mi slammed the cup on the square table, slammed the door and went out without knowing where to go, this warm atmosphere added a bit of tension, Changyu Youle sighed slightly, wondering if Xiaobai forgot to meet today? It was rare that Feng Mi would sit obediently in the room and wait for a whole day.
Outside the gate, Bai Lian, who happened to be greeting outside, saw the Lin family's carriage coming, and hurriedly greeted it, wondering if the lady had any orders, but found that it was Lin Wenjuan who came, "Wenjuan? Why are you here so late? ”
"It's okay, I just came back from Xiaobai and want to talk to you." Lin Wenjuan looked disgusted and listless.
Bai Lian smiled lightly and asked, "Are you two okay?" Seeing Lin Wenjuan nodding, she said understandingly: "That's right, Chen Heng has come to the Lin family to propose marriage, I think you two sisters should also reconcile, I said it a long time ago, it's not worth it for a stinky man." ”
"Why is it that apart from my father, none of you said that Chen Heng was good?" Lin Wenjuan suddenly raised her voice, as if she wanted to eat people.
Bai Lian saw that someone had already looked sideways, and hurriedly took Lin Wenjuan's hand to her bedroom in the backyard, nagging all the way, "Do you think it's okay?" He's fragrant, and everyone thinks he's greedy? ”
Changyu Youle, who was close to the window, suddenly heard a small sound, as if something was broken, he had a bad heart, and the reason why Xiaobai didn't come to the appointment would be very troublesome if Feng Mi heard it.
In the night, a black shadow floated away, and Changyu Youle frowned and hurriedly set off to chase after him.
The words that Xiaobai and Lin Wenjuan, Chen Heng, and Changyu Youle said, as well as the feelings of the relationship that ended a year ago, were still scrolling back and forth in Feng Mi's mind, and he was surprised that a little girl's heart could be as simple as a man, and she liked and gave up as pure, and even the friendship that had long since deteriorated in his opinion was extremely sincere.
If it weren't for these, Feng Mi wouldn't have stayed in Huicheng with interest at all, as Changyu Youle said, he had too many things to do, and he really didn't have much time to listen to the trivial matters of these boring children, but today he was very disappointed, Xiaobai didn't come as promised, which proved that what she said was not the real thought in her heart, so what was she thinking?
Feng Mi had never felt like this, and a sense of curiosity about a person gushed out in his heart, as if he was about to drown him.
Xiaobai sat on the threshold, looking at the twinkling stars in the sky, I don't know how long it took, the cool wind blew on her body at night, she didn't feel cold, and she didn't even have the intention to do it tomorrow, she was just in a daze, her mind was blank, and she seemed to gradually like this sense of confusion that she didn't have to think about anything, and the whole person fell into an inexplicable depression that she didn't want to struggle.
"Knowing that they are going to get married, you are so desperate to live and die, so why didn't you really fight in the first place?"
A familiar and unfamiliar voice came from afar, and Xiao Bai blinked, watching him come from the night, through the flickering candlelight, with a hint of coldness and doubt in his eyes. Her hand slowly slid from her cheek to her chin, wrapped her other hand around her body, lowered her eyes, at this time, she only hoped that there was only herself in her world, and she instinctively resisted the disturbance of outsiders.
"You're constantly lying." This sentence seems to be Feng Mi's summary of Xiaobai, he sneered, laughing at himself for seeing the wrong person, how could a woman living in this environment make him feel relaxed? Moreover, the origin of this woman herself is unknown.
"Eighth Master?" Changyu Youle came at the right time, and he could clearly feel the anger emanating from Feng Mi, he didn't know whether to be happy or surprised, after all, the last time Feng Mi was like this, it was when he found the child in the side hall. Feng Mi has always been a bystander to the affairs of the world, and it is rare for him to be so concerned.
Feng Mi turned around abruptly and said, "What a waste of time. ”
"I'm human!" Xiaobai suddenly got up and shouted, but he felt that why did he lose his temper with a stranger? She took a deep breath, as if she was talking to herself, and she was also explaining to herself the origin of the depressed mood just now, "I'm not a saint, my heart is as big as heaven and earth, and those feelings that have been paid are not the water that has been spilled, if I don't say it's gone, it's gone, I don't see them, and if I don't listen to those words, it's already what I can do, the greatest tolerance, otherwise what else can I do?" ”
Is not seeing forgiving? Feng Mi's cold eyes added a touch of sadness, what would ordinary people do when they encountered such a bad thing? Even he himself can't be indifferent, how can there be any saints in this ordinary world?
Xiaobai snorted, forced back the tears in his eyes, and said: "One by one, they seem to be waiting for me to lose my temper and make me emotional, it is best to engrave the three words negative man on Chen Heng's face, and it is what I should do to not get along with the Lin family, but I really don't want to hurt anyone." I'd rather believe that I misunderstood, Chen Heng's liking is just pity! It's sympathy! Otherwise, what should Wen Juan do? She really likes Chen Heng! ”
Feng Mi's heart chuckled, misunderstanding the word, as if many years ago, someone had said this to him.
Xiaobai's grief has overflowed uncontrollably, she trembled, and the grievances that were forcibly endured poured out, "No one is wrong, what right do I have to blame them?" Besides, some things are really predestined in advance, how can I change them? Am I the daughter of the county magistrate's family? Or can you become a princess in the imperial palace? Except to say I don't care, it's okay, what can I do?
This is the best result, Chen Heng finally went to the Lin family to propose marriage under the pressure of Wen Juan, Lord Lin likes him to be a scholar, Wen Juan likes his humble temperament, even Mrs. Lin said that he didn't like it, but after all, he can bring supreme glory to the Lin family, and Young Master Lin also used him to fulfill the dream of a scholar, they all have something to rely on, why should I break all this?
You're right, I've been lying, I'm saying it's okay, I'm thinking it's okay in my head, I'm thinking in my heart that it's all going to pass, it's okay, but I can't do it! I can only tell myself over and over again that I am right, I am right, I am not wrong, and what I say is not wrong, so that I can slowly withdraw myself from this matter, listen to them calmly, comfort Wen Juan's uneasiness, and even soothe the worries of Bailian and Young Master Lin.
It takes time to heal the pain, and who can give everything and walk away? Even if it's just a misunderstanding, don't you have a heart? Won't you feel pain! Why do you think I'm wasting my time with everything I'm doing? Have you experienced what I have been through? Do you understand how I feel? ”
There was silence all around, and there was a whimpering wind behind him, and in an instant, the wind blew between the two, peeling off the sad and heavy shell, mixed with flesh and blood and unwillingness, and slammed into the ground silently.
"I understand." Feng Mi suddenly turned around, looking at Xiaobai's ordinary face with some stubbornness, as if he saw himself many years ago, and he couldn't convince himself to believe it, so he could only stick to the last bit of dignity and pretend to be strong. The little girl in front of her cried too much, her eyes were red, but after looking at it for a long time, Feng Mi actually felt that the light contained in it was like the stars in the sky, and only by sinking down to watch it could she find the brilliance in it.
This answer only made Xiaobai look puzzled, but it made Changyu Youle stop breathing. It seems that there are some things, no matter how many years have passed, a bloody wound will only turn into a scabbed scar and will never heal.
Xiaobai smiled bitterly a few times and said softly: "Understand a fart!" There are some things that have not happened to me, and it is impossible to understand. ”
"It's disgusting, isn't it?" Feng Mi has never said such words, his status is noble, even if he is really annoyed, he will not be speechless.
Xiaobai thought for a while and said with a smile: "It doesn't seem to be all." ”
Feng Mi walked up to her side and said, "No matter who chooses whom, the one left behind should be grateful." Xiaobai was puzzled, but he could only use his afterglow to see his expression, and listened to Feng Mi say: "Sometimes it's quite interesting to compete with yourself, that kind of unwilling but powerless feeling can make people grow quickly." ”
Xiao Bai turned sideways slightly, so that Feng Mi could only see half of the back of her head, Feng Mi was a little surprised, he smiled shallowly, thinking that what Changyu Youle said was right, this character is indeed very cute, but he couldn't say these words, but said: "We're leaving." ”
Xiaobai suddenly understood the intention of the two, and felt a little guilty in his heart, "Let's stay for one more day, and I will accompany you to the pine forest early tomorrow morning." ”
"No need." Feng Mi waved his hand at Changyu Youle, signaling that he was ready to leave, and did not mention the next time.
But Changyu Youle didn't seem to be able to suppress the doubts in his heart, and he was also a little worried about Xiaobai's condition, before leaving, he said: "I won't tell you, we met the eldest lady of the Lin family outside Wenying Pavilion, otherwise we wouldn't have come here, I really didn't expect such a thing to happen, don't think about it, I see that the young lady of the Lin family is in good spirits, but you, like a frosted eggplant." ”
Xiaobai nodded, the doubts in his heart were answered, showed a calm smile, and said: "Bai Lian, the daughter of the shopkeeper of Wen Yingge, grew up with Wen Juan, and Wen Juan is used to looking for her when she has troubles, I'm fine, feelings are very important to Wen Juan, but not for me, there are too many things to cherish in this world, and you must learn to accept it calmly." ”
"You're such a strange girl." Changyu Youle couldn't help laughing, "I believe in eternal feelings, and I think it's not important, it's just contrary to the world, so many talented and beautiful people will die of shame when they hear your words." ”
"I'm sorry." Xiaobai was a little surprised, "I've ruined your fun today, next time, I'll be a good guide." ”
"What if..." Changyu Youle frowned slightly, "I mean, if today's incident is repeated, I know that even if I reveal my heart to Miss Lin Family, I will still be unhappy, will you go to Wenying Pavilion to make an appointment?" Let's just have a good time. ”
Xiaobai shook his head and said: "In the same situation, I am waiting for you today, I believe you will make the same choice as me, besides, what I say to Wen Juan is not as good as what I say to your friend, there are some things in my heart, I can't tell her." ”
Changyu Youle nodded in response, Xiaobai was right, his friendship with Feng Mi for many years would not change because of anything.
"Just now..." Feng Mi suddenly turned back and said solemnly to Xiaobai: "I thought wrong. ”
Xiaobai frowned, what was he thinking just now? It is a long fish blessing, and he smiles heartily, and this trip to Haixing is not without gain.
