Chapter 1: Xiao Changfeng
It was a cold winter, and the snow covered the city, and it was so cold that people didn't dare to poke their heads out.
I found him by chance while playing hide-and-seek with Gu Ruan in a ruined temple.
He was very small, wearing only a thin undergarment on his body, which was so tattered that he barely covered his body. His face was thin and dirty, and his eyes looked big, like two sparkling grapes.
When he saw me come in, he hugged himself so vigilantly.
Just one glance made my heart soften, and I felt that he was pitiful.
I took off my big hat and covered him, and he was very afraid of me, so he had no way back and let me tie his clothes.
He was wrapped in my big coat and had only one head left, much like the turnip I saw in the vegetable patch.
I smiled and asked him where he was and where his parents were.
I thought he had lost his parents, but he told me he was an orphan.
Since then, he has been raised by me in this dilapidated temple, and I will bring him three meals a day on time, and give him clothes that I could not wear last year.
Gradually, half a month passed, and we became good friends, and he would smile, but there was always a melancholy in those eyes. I'd love to ask him how he seems to be more mature than her eldest brother at such a young age, shouldn't he play carefree like her.
But I didn't ask after all.
After another month, he was fattened by me a lot, and he was willing to take the initiative to talk to me. His voice is very gentle, and when he laughs, he will show two small tiger teeth, which is particularly good-looking.
I told him that my name was Xiao Sheng, which was my milk name, and my father gave me this name so that I could be safe and smooth. I asked him what his name was, and he hesitated. I don't care, they're all children anyway, where are there so many things.
It's just that after I was with him for two months, I went to the temple that day and couldn't find him again.
I didn't know where he had gone, and I feared that he was in danger, so I secretly searched for him in the city alone. In the morning or in the evening, I would go to the beggar's place to check, hoping to find his footprints.
I searched like this for a month, but unfortunately I didn't hear anything about him. I was sad for a long time, thinking that it was because I couldn't take care of him that he would leave me.
As the years passed, I grew up a lot and was exposed to more interesting things, and I gradually forgot about him.
I remember a little boy blinking at me with very bright eyes.
But who is he?
It was three days after I woke up, and Xiao Feng told me that my father had forgiven me for running away from home without permission, and that as long as I was willing to go back, he would treat it as if nothing had happened.
I fell asleep for three days, and my brain had a dull pain, and Xiao Changfeng said it for a while before I reacted.
"What about Gu Xiu?" I say. This time, I encountered robbers on the way from home, and it was Gu Xiu who rescued me.
"In the backyard." Xiao Changfeng said: "I think Gu Xiu seems to recognize you, do you recognize him?" ”
To be honest, I don't know Gu Xiu, we just happened to meet in the capital, and I happened to escape from the robbers, and he kindly saved me. I only know that his family is in the capital and is a rich and noble family, and I don't know anything else.
"I don't know."
In the evening, I ate some light and delicious food, and with some strength in my body, I told Xiao Changfeng that I was ready to go home, and my father would have someone pick me up in two days.
Xiao Changfeng just nodded, and didn't keep me much.
I was a little disappointed, thinking that Xiao Changfeng and I grew up together, and we can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, no matter what he says, he also has some feelings for me. But now it seems that it is just wishful thinking on my part.
My father and Xiao Changfeng's father used to be friends in life and death, and the two have been friends for at least 20 years. Xiao Changfeng's father only moved from Licheng to the capital three years ago, and he had been living with us in Licheng before that.
Now that he has only been separated for three years, Xiao Changfeng's whole person has changed, he has grown taller, and he has become heroic, and he is much more mature and stable. Even to me, it became polite.
The autumn breeze was whirling, I wrapped myself up and went out and played on the swing in the yard for a while, before I came to the courtyard where Gu Xiu lived by the bright moon.
This is Gu Xiu's mansion, built very much like a small courtyard in the Jiangnan style, which is scattered and does not lose smoke and rain.
I knocked on the door, Gu Xiu opened the door and saw me, and kept blaming me, saying that I was wearing too little, and I was seriously injured, and I couldn't stand the toss.
He poured me a cup of tea, I said "thank you" and took a sip to warm my stomach, and then said, "Thank you for saving me this time." ”
Gu Xiu smiled, revealing two tiger teeth: "If Ruyue really thanks me, it is better to live with me all the time." ”
I said, "Don't make fun of me." I've decided that I'm going back, and my dad will send someone to pick me up in two days. ”
Gu Xiu didn't stop me: "It's okay to go back, people outside are sinister, and they are not as safe as at home." ”
After a pause, he said again: "Didn't you know this Xiao Changfeng, why didn't you let him send you back?" ”
I took another sip of tea and said lightly: "No need, he has to come back when he goes back, it's very troublesome." ”
I know that Xiao Changfeng is no longer the Changfeng who loved me before, and what he and I are thinking about is just the old love. Why should I be far-fetched with him?
Gu Xiu saw that I had kept my head down, so he wanted to reach out and touch my hair, but I saw it faintly in the candlelight, so I touched my earlobe and passed it sideways, avoiding his touch.
Me and Gu Xiu, Gu Xiu and me, so far, I can only say that there will be no intersection in the future.
Two days came quickly, and it was my eldest brother Bai Ruxing who came to pick me up.
When he saw Xiao Changfeng, he said almost the same thing as when I saw him.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, but you've changed a lot."
Xiao Changfeng smiled gently: "I have grown a lot taller, so naturally it is different from before." ”
My eldest brother didn't say anything to him again, and after such a long absence, everyone seemed to have nothing to say.
He thanked Gu Xiu again, and then pulled me into the carriage and drove the horse away.
I've thought about pulling the curtain and sneaking it out countless times, even if it's just a glance at Xiao Changfeng. It's just that I don't dare, I'm too reluctant to Xiao Changfeng! I was afraid to look at him and never want to leave him again.
"You didn't say goodbye for many days, and you were seriously injured, so my mother has to worry about it." When I got to the house, Bai Ruxing hugged me down, and told me all the way to be careful when I waited, bow my head and admit my mistakes.
I knew that it was indeed my fault for running away from home this time, and since I chose to go home, I was ready to be reprimanded by my father.
When I arrived in the lobby, my father and mother were sitting on chairs, both of them frowning and very sad.
Bai Ruxing took me in: "Daddy, my little sister is back." ”
My mother wept when she saw me, and I thought she was worried about me because of what had happened before, so I went over and knelt in her arms.
