Chapter 15: Spring Water Under the Sad Bridge [15]

On both sides of the sidewalk is a neat row of banyan trees, sheltering the sky and the sun. A narrow, dark gray asphalt road is sandwiched between them, and there are light flickers of light everywhere. The dense leaves of the banyan tree, swaying slightly in the wind, make a sound. The Nanqiu community is just across the road in the shade of banyan leaves. Siyu stood under the banyan leaves, as far as the eye could see, it was still the iron gate of the Nanqiu community, painted with layers of black paint, next to it was a small security room, through the silver-edged green glass window, or the two security uncles, wearing ill-fitting security uniforms, but their temples were already gray, and they were still sleepy in the afternoon.

The wanderer thinks for thousands of miles, and the hometown is more timid.

Siyu's mind flashed countless thoughts in a few minutes, such as walking across the road and asking the security uncle, if Zhi Zhiyuan's family still lives here, maybe they have moved away, maybe they are still there, but even if they are still there, does she really dare to go in? Maybe she will send a bag of tea to the security room, and then ask the security uncle to transfer all the shopping bags to Zhi Zhiyuan. But what if it's gone? She didn't know anything, she didn't know where they were, she didn't even have this last home, she only had money, should she give all her shopping bags to the security room, or should she leave her tea behind, throw away all the luxuries and pens? That's still only money, and there's no even this last home.

She didn't know how long she had been standing under the banyan tree, she just carried a bunch of shopping bags and quietly looked at the Nanqiu community. The soft halo of the afternoon light and the sweetness of milk tea lingered in her heart, as if she was still passing the time under the favor of Zhi Zhiyuan many years ago.

She really wanted to try strawberry milk tea.

She turned around, pushed open the glass door and entered the café opposite the Nanqiu community, the café had not changed at all, and the waitress sister in the khaki uniform at the counter said with a smile like many years ago: "Welcome." ”

Siyu also chose a position near the window and sat down, just like many years ago. She put her shopping bag under the square table and sat down in the center of the bench as she had done many years ago, her left hand lazily resting on the smooth square table, and her right hand supporting her to look out the window.

"Miss, what do you need?"

"A cup of plain milk tea." Siyu didn't think about it, she almost blurted out, and when she reacted back, she herself was taken aback, and when she turned her head to look at the waiter, she had already lowered her head and made a note of it.

"Need something else?" The waiter's sister didn't raise her head.

"One more drink...... Well...... Strawberry milk tea. Siyu was a little embarrassed, the waitress sister raised her head and looked at her puzzled, she nodded firmly, "Thank you, that's all." ”

The original milk tea was soon served, and the ivory white original milk tea was in a plain white ceramic cup, filled with a shallow mist. Siyu held the white porcelain cup with her left hand, and the warm warmth came from her fingers, she slowly turned the cup around, and then suddenly withdrew her hand in a hurry, as if she was afraid of alarming something.

She looked at the cup of plain milk tea in a daze.

"Miss? The strawberry milk tea you want. The waiter's sister saw Siyu in a daze, so she called her, Siyu nodded stiffly, and then the waiter's sister put another cup of strawberry milk tea in front of her.

Siyu finally saw the strawberry milk tea he had been longing for for many years. The pale concubine-colored strawberry milk tea is contained in a magenta ceramic cup, which reminds people of the peach-like flush on the face of the person in the poem, and she knows that the ceramic cup in the café still has such a unique color, and she still holds the Yi with her right hand, but stretches out the fingers curled up in her left hand - she seems to taste a mouthful of strawberry milk tea, she stretches out her hand for a minute, but she sees that the finger is trembling, and she can't stop shaking.

Eventually, a hint of coldness slipped down his cheeks. Tear after tear fell onto the smooth wooden table, broke in half, splashed a water stain - she was crying, she still couldn't help crying, it turned out that she needed to cry too.

She even held her hand for the cup, only to weep silently, but her fingers eventually curled up and stiffened, and her eyes became more and more blurred, leaving only the bright light on the ring finger of her left hand. Then her shoulders trembled violently, like a nestling falling from a nest in the snow, and as her head slowly fell down, even her long silky hair slipped from her shoulders—how could she hold back any more and be as if nothing had happened in the past seven years?

That breath was stuck in his chest.

The waiter standing at the counter had already noticed this scene, and after wringing her fingers and hesitating a few times, she finally decided to go to Siyu's side to have a look, but as soon as she came out of the counter, a man with a shopping bag and a black slim trench coat stretched out a hand to stop her. The waiter's sister subconsciously turned her head, and she had a very handsome face, thin lips, and narrow Danfeng eyes.

He was also staring at Siyu with burning eyes.

He took out a red bill from the pocket of his trench coat, pointed at Siyu with a bony finger, and then pointed at himself, and then he handed the red bill to the waiter's sister, and turned his head inquiringly. She immediately understood, made an "OK" gesture, and said "enough" with her mouth. ”

Then she went back to the counter and found 36 yuan and put it on the counter, so that she wouldn't forget to find them later, and she looked over there again, and the man had already put down the shopping bag and sat down across from Siyu.

Peng Youbin pursed his lips and looked at Siyu who was sobbing with his head bowed. Her left hand, resting on the table, clenched tremblingly, and even her knuckles were white. On her ring finger was the dazzling custom ring, and he timidly stretched out his right hand—he wore the same plain diamond ring on his right hand.

The watch ring should be worn on the left hand that is not commonly used.

His palm is like the wall of a white porcelain cup that is as warm as jade, with the unique warmth of the afternoon sun, the warm leisure, the warm peace of mind.

Even if it's fake, it's always warm.

He saw that her body was shaken, and she finally raised her head slowly, and her bright eyes looked straight into his eyes, and he felt a pang in his heart—her eyes were full of tears, like a nestling that had fallen from a nest, helplessly and aggrieved to look into his eyes with her bright eyes.

He said, "Don't be afraid, now it's me." ”

She let out a "ho", and finally squinted her eyes and cried, like a child who was bullied outside and came home to be wronged, in fact, she was only twenty-two years old, he always knew, but what could he do?

Peng Youbin thought about his college days—just squeezing someone's hand hard to prevent her from running away. He'd been missing a step all along, and only he knew how far away they were.

There were only two of them in the entire idle café.

She was weeping and shaking.

Peng Youbin felt his left fingernail sink into the flesh. Even if it's fake, it always hurts, and it hurts until the heart, and it's not as good as what happens.

Cold and cold France, alone, he opened the contract through the faint night light, and turned over the dignified black six-pointed star totem, which was a shocking text, an unknown secret......

There was a dazzling white light in front of him again. That kind of miserable whiteness is also miserable white in the warm afternoon light, white like blood and teardrops mixed together, condensed on the Xiangfei curtain, but it shines year after year.

He lost something, and he also knew that things were wrong, and he obviously couldn't find them again.

She's not his anymore, and he's not her anymore.

But at this moment, I realized that even if it was fake, it was painful.

He took her cool hand in his palm. He stood up resolutely, but moved to her side almost with hesitation, and then slowly sat down beside her as tentatively as ever.

She couldn't stand it anymore, her body went limp, almost lying on his shoulder, she buried her head in his neck socket, and she let the tears flow freely. In the yellow noon, time always passed so fast and so slowly, and cold tears covered her face layer by layer and seeped into the hem of his clothes.

He held her, and she fell into his arms.

I don't know how long it took, but her eyes felt dry, but her body warmed up and her breathing returned to steady.

She panicked out of her embrace, her eyelids lowered.

And he didn't say anything, just looked at her with burning eyes.

"I ......"

"I ......"

They were silent for a long time, but they all opened their mouths.

She was swallowed badly.

She felt that her throat was so dry and hoarse, she turned around and picked up the original milk tea on the table and took a sip, but it was not too cold.

Siyu felt a little better at this time, and she asked, "Why are you here?" Aren't you absent at noon? ”

"I was passing by. But you're too embarrassed to mention the time, it's late in the evening. ”

Siyu heard the words and looked at the canopy outside the glass window, and sure enough, on the other side of the sky, the indigo and blue clouds twisted intricately into locks and locks, and then spread out in locks, as if orderly, the begonia-colored glow came out between these countless ropes, but it was getting weaker and weaker, and it turned out that the sky was already getting dark.

Siyu felt a little embarrassed, she said, "What do you want to eat at night?" Shall I invite you to dinner to repay your kindness? ”

He sneered, but said, "Do you want to go back and have a look?" If you don't dare to be alone, I can accompany you, we are husband and wife now" He paused, "Legal husband and wife." ”

Her smile suddenly froze on her face, she pondered for a moment, slowly raised her head, and said, "Forget it, I won't go back, but," Siyu pointed to a pile of shopping bags under the table, "If they are still here, let's put our things down and leave." ”

Peng Youbin nodded.

Siyu lowered his head and picked up the shopping bag. After Peng Youbin picked up the shopping bag on the table, he went to pick up the shopping bag in Siyu's hand. Then, each of them filled a hand of shopping bags, and Peng and Bin just held Siyu's left hand with their right hand. When the glass door of the café was opened, the waitress sister called out, "Mr. and Mrs. Money! ”

Siyu then remembered that he had forgotten to pay. But the waiter's sister handed the money to Peng Youbin with both hands, and Peng Youbin took the money and put it in the pocket of his windbreaker, and said, "I knew that you were easy to forget, but now that I have me, I have already paid." Then he took her left hand behind his back with his right hand, and the two rings came together and intersected.

The waitress sister smiled heartily and said, "Madam, you are so lucky. ”
