Chapter 23: The Man Was in the Lamplight

On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the people's park of the small town has been a tradition for several years, and a variety of lanterns are displayed.

It has been a tradition for our family for several years to go to the People's Park to see the lanterns, and when I go home, Mr. Xie will ask me to write an essay about the lanterns.

Regarding the composition of lanterns, I have classic quotations, and I have tried and tested.

That is Xin Qiji's famous sentence: The crowd is looking for him thousands of times. Suddenly looking back, the man was there, and the lights were dim.

I remember when I quoted this sentence when I was a child, Mr. Xie praised me and said that I had the temperament of Li Qingzhao.

I turned it over, and I said, "Teacher Xie, every time you look at the lanterns, you two will lose me." I think when Xin Qiji wrote this poem, he must have lost his baby when he looked at the lantern, and he couldn't find it for a long time. ”

That night, I stood on the side of the lotus lantern in the People's Park and saw Mu Qiao on the other side of the lotus lantern, but we could only look at each other from a distance, just like the morning glory Vega in the sky, one at one end and the other at that end, with an uncrossable Milky Way in between.

At this time, I remembered Li Bai's poem: The flying stream goes straight down 3,000 feet, and it is suspected that the Milky Way falls for nine days.

Why do you want to be suspicious, you just fall down.

The Milky Way has dried up, and the pair of lovers of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl will no longer have to look at each other across the river.

And Mu Qiao and I won't be so close, and we have to pretend that we don't know anyone.

At that time, we each had our parents by our side.

Seeing that days of lovesickness are fleeting, I am not very reconciled.

I had an idea, and in Mu Qiao's expectant eyes, I first stepped away with my left foot, and then followed with my right foot.

Then one stumbled and lunged straight in his direction.

This baby is quite clever, and immediately stretched out her hands to hold me up.

I hurriedly said, "Classmate, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my foot is slipping." ”

He smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, you're fine." ”

My mother, Mr. Xie, didn't notice the cattiness between us.

"This kid, he's such a big man and so reckless, I'm sorry, little brother, you should have touched a piece of."

I have no place to embarrass myself, I was born with a beautiful appearance, and I was described by my own mother as a piece of, still in front of the boy I liked.

Mu Qiao smiled, and against the backdrop of the lanterns, he smiled a hundred times more handsome than the melancholy Qiao Datou.

He said, "Classmate, what school do you attend?" ”

I grinned, "I'm in a foreign Chinese school." ”

He said, "It's a coincidence, I'm also in a foreign Chinese language school. ”

I said, "I'm in the second year of high school. ”

He said: "I am a sophomore in high school. ”

Teacher Xie was particularly surprised: "The earth is really round, you can hit a school classmate if you fall on your heel." ”

I said, "That is, it must be a special fate to be able to become a person in the school along the way." No, I'll have to ask him what his name is. ”

My mother said, "Okay, you go and ask, and we will meet under this lotus lamp in a while." If you don't hear it, don't run around. ”

I said, "Don't worry, I'm not a three-year-old baby anymore, I won't lose it." ”

With my cleverness, I finally met Mu Qiao, the Cowherd and Weaver Girl, and finally watched the water ducks swimming by the lake in People's Park for a while.

The whole process was so embarrassing that it was impossible to do it, because the two of us squirmed and couldn't find a topic.

The air around the two of us was getting colder and colder, and school was going to start the next day, and I was afraid of catching a cold.

Just said: "It's not early, I'm going back." ”

He said, "Well, I'm going back too." Otherwise, my mom won't find me in a while, I'll be crazy. ”

That's the end of our hard-earned opportunity.

I was a little frustrated, it wasn't quite the same date I imagined, it was so different.

The heroes and heroines in the TV series are so sweet that they are to death, and there are no pictures that are inappropriate for children.

Mu Qiao probably guessed what I was thinking and wanted to remedy our awkward first date, after I turned and took a few steps.

He stopped me from behind.

"Bai Ziran."

I turned away expectantly.

He said: "It's hard to walk in the dark, walk slowly, I'm afraid you'll fall again." ”

I replied, "Okay, you too." ”

Once again, I turned around in disappointment, and it turned out that the TV series was all about deception.

I made an excuse for our not-so-perfect date.

This is probably what Mr. Song Yu said, so pure that it can't be more pure to like!

The most important thing is that we are still students, and the dating between students naturally has to be like seeing flowers in the fog and looking at the moon in the water, so as to show the special mystery of the veil between loving and being loved.

Otherwise, where would so many people love to death.

When I was thinking frequently, Mu Qiao shouted at me again.

"Who?"

I turned my head: "Are you calling me?" ”

In the dim light of the street, I could see his face as red as a ripe tomato through the thick night.

"I, I miss you so much."

It seemed that it took him a lot of effort to hold back such a sentence.

Since everyone else has said something, I have to express it too.

I said, "Me too." ”

He said, "What are you too?" ”

I said, "I miss you too." ”

I turned around again, and I was walking with a feverish face.

Under the lotus lamp, the red on my face has not faded.

Teacher Xie and Officer Bai held hands and walked from a distance talking and laughing.

Closer, closer, I rubbed my face.

"Mom, it's a little cold tonight, and my face is freezing red."

My mom said, "Cold? Why don't I think so? Look at it, you don't have to wear cotton clothes, just to look good, you deserve it, no one cares about you when you have a cold. ”

People's Park is not far from home, and our family of three walked back.

The two of them kissed me in the front, and I was desperately eating dog food in the back.

As I walked, the two people in front of me didn't know what they were smoking, and they braked their feet, almost touching my nose.

Teacher Xie asked, "Oh, I forgot to ask you, what's the name of that classmate of yours?" ”

I touched my skull and tried to remember.

"Well, what's it called? It seems that the surname is Mu, Murong Fu? ”

Bai Jianjun's rare humor: "Murong Fu, I'm still Qiao Feng." ”

I smiled: "I'm sorry, I only remember that his surname seems to be Mu, I can't remember what his name is." ”

Teacher Xie taught me in time: "That's not good, remembering a person's name is a virtue." When you meet an acquaintance on the street, and the acquaintance can't remember your name for a long time, so he calls you directly. Would you be happy? ”
