Meng Jie wept
"Found you, finally found you."
Looking for me? How did he know I wasn't in the city?
I don't want to ask, the most important thing at the moment is not to dwell on this issue, but that he is holding me like this, which is too abrupt!
I patted him on the back vigorously and scolded, "Let go of me, Meng Jie, you let go quickly!" In public, what kind of system have you become! ”
Although we are friends, but men and women are different, and etiquette is restrictive, so it is really inappropriate, and it makes me very awkward.
But he didn't care, and no matter how much I resisted the beating, he still locked me to death. I couldn't break free, and I was anxious, so I pinched the flesh on his arm with my ruthless hand, trying to force him to let go, but this hard muscle, pinched my hand sore, and he didn't react, as if he didn't know the pain.
I had no choice but to let him strangle me half to death.
"Where have you been? Did you know that I've been looking for you! ”
He spoke in a very nasal voice, with a hoarse voice and a little forbearance.
I pressed my face against his chest, and I could hear his heartbeat beating fast, but I didn't feel ashamed other than feeling embarrassed. He's not a long pole at all.
Meng Jie's concern for me will move me, but I will not be happy about it. I've never done anything for him, I've never been pleased with him, and I deserve to be so nice to me.
I patted him on the back, as if to soothe him and myself.
"Meng Jie, I'm fine, I'm not fine. You let go first, I'm a little out of breath. ”
"Strangled you? I'm sorry for the shortage, I'm sorry. ”
"Well, it's kind of."
Hearing this, he really let go.
I stepped back, a little distance, looked up at him, and smiled genuinely at him. He smiled too, grinning, revealing neat white teeth.
"Meng Jie, thank you, thank you for caring about me so much. But no matter what, we have to keep our distance. ”
His smile faded, and only loneliness remained in his bright eyes.
"It's true that I'm rude, it's me who offended you. I didn't mean anything else, I, I just had too much fun. I was overjoyed to see you come back safely and stand in front of me, and somehow I hugged you. If you are so reckless, you should be angry. ”
His careful apology is unbearable.
I shook my head and said with a smile: "I was a little angry at first, but now I'm not angry, I don't blame you."
He turned his worries into joy, and said with a smile: "Really? It's good if you're not angry, it's good if you're not angry. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and walked towards me, and I was afraid of being hugged by him again, so I immediately dodged and hid for a long distance. He saw that I was deliberately distant, and he stopped coming any further.
"I've got to go home, you stay."
After bowing my head to him, I strode forward, and before I could think of it, he led the horse and followed.
I stopped, turned to look at him and said, "Why are you following me, you don't need to send it, I can go back by myself."
He didn't listen to persuasion, and said with a smile: "You go yours, don't worry about me."
"Then can you not follow me?"
"I'd love to!"
"Whatever you want."
I turned around and left, no longer idling with him.
Walking in a hurry, before I knew it, I had reached the broken bridge.
I stood under the broken bridge, looking at the red bean tree on the west side of the bridge, and immediately the pictures I had seen in the album flashed in my mind, and now I also thought of the story that Changji had told me in the past. It's strange that now there is no turmoil in my heart, and even the little regret I had in the past is gone.
I turned my head and asked in a daze, "Meng Jie, do you know the allusion to this broken bridge?"
"Of course I know."
His tone was flat and unfazed.
"It is rumored that Princess Minghua, the third daughter of Qi Taizong, is infatuated with Yuanmu monk, but Yuanmu has no intention of being in love with her children, and is dedicated to practice. After Minghua's death, Yuanmu had an epiphany, in fact, he had liked her, but he couldn't see his heart clearly at that time, and he didn't dare to violate the Buddhist precepts and miss her. In short, it was too late. When Yuanmu passed away, Xu asked someone to repair the bridge in order to make up for his regrets, and the bridge bank was planted with red medicine, and three red bean acacia trees were planted at the head of the bridge, and he himself was buried under the bridge, guarding the bridge forever and forever, guarding his love history. ”
It's a good poignant legend, but he said that he didn't have any emotion at all, as if he was endorsing it, and it sounded really boring.
I pretended to pat the saddle and asked casually, "Then do you know who Minghua is married to?" Is it with the Yin Dynasty, the ninth prince of the Liang State? Do they have any legends and anecdotes between them? ”
When the world mentions Minghua, they only talk about her and Yuanmu, but they never say Yin Dynasty, why is this.
Without thinking, Meng Jie shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it."
"This Jiankang City, once the capital of the Qi State, Minghua and Yuanmu were born here, grew up here, it is understandable to leave their legends here, and the Yin Dynasty is a native of the Liang State, who will mention him in the Qi people. What's more, the people Minghua likes are Yuanmu, Emperor Ji and monks, and only when they say their stories can people be emotional, as for Yin Chao, it is just an insignificant supporting role. ”
"Yin Chao is a supporting role! Minghua really likes her husband instead of Yuanmu. ”
As soon as Meng Jie's words fell, I immediately dismissed it aloud, his eyes were puzzled, and he stared at me and said, "How can you see that you are not Minghua, how do you know her intentions?"
I was stunned and couldn't answer, so I had to lie: "Guess at will."
"You really haven't heard of Yin Chao at all?"
Still shaking his head, he led his horse to the stone bridge, and I fixed my eyes for a moment, and then moved up as well.
Meng Jie put his palm on the railing of the stone bridge, lowered his head to look at the river flowing under the bridge, smiled brightly, and then raised his head and said to me gently: "Lacking, do you believe that people have a past life and this life?" If so, who are you and who am I? ”
Why did he ask this all of a sudden, and asked the question I was just going to ask him.
I was so flustered that I didn't have time to answer, but he said, "I think there is, and I seem to have dreamed of my past life." In my previous life, I knew you and liked you. And we are in love, married, and a fairy couple. You wash your hands and make soup for me, make clothes and sews for me, and I paint your eyebrows and eyes, comb your hair and accessories, we love the white head, and the children and grandchildren are full. ”
He said it with great joy and joy, word by word, as if it were true, and I listened with horror.
"Meng Jie!"
I interrupted him, silently organized the language in my heart, took a deep breath, and said as softly as possible: "Meng Jie, I know that you treat me well, and I know what your heart is, but I can't afford your favor." Maybe you don't want to do anything, it's just that I'm too careful, and I think I still think you still miss me, and you still have me in your heart...... But I'm going to make it clear to you, we can't, it's really impossible. Besides, I'm not good-looking, selfish, petty, willful, and full of shortcomings, and I don't deserve your affection. You are a bright gentleman, Wen Tao Wu, hearty and clean, and there must be the best woman to match. ”
As soon as these words came out, Meng Jie's face suddenly became extremely pale. He looked at me for a moment, expressionless, and was silent for a long time before he hummed softly.
His reaction like this is really uncertain, could it be that I am too self-inflicted, in fact, people don't mean this at all?
Just as he was skeptical, he said, "In my eyes, you are the best girl in the world."
"I'm not as good as you think, I really don't."
Swallowing in embarrassment, he was about to say something else to fool the past, he said solemnly: "I want to know, have you ever had me in your heart?"
I was dumbfounded, I remember telling him once before, I thought he would figure it out that time, but now it seems that he still doesn't quite understand.
I was extremely serious and didn't do anything to drag the mud and water, and replied, "No, never." Growing up so big, I only have too long in my heart, and I only like him wholeheartedly, and it is impossible to accommodate a second person. ”
That's straightforward enough, I think he should understand.
The truth hurts, and the lie hurts even more, I know he's sad, but I shouldn't lie.
Meng Jie suddenly became excited, grabbed my arm violently, and the green tendons on the back of his hand bulged.
"When? Since when did he have to be? I can do what he does for you, and I can do what he can't do for you, so why condemn him? ”
Where do you start with this, and what is there that Changji cannot do for me?
I didn't hesitate and told honestly: "Very early, before I met you, or after I met you."
"Is he that good? So good that you can't see anyone else in your eyes anymore? ”
"It's not that I can't see others because of how good he is, but that other people's good has nothing to do with me, I care about him, I only look at his good, even if he is full of shortcomings, he is good or not, I like it."
Meng Jie let go of his hand and said in a deep voice: "I see, no matter what, it will only be him."
After finishing his sentence, he said no more, lowered his head and stared at the ground, his eyes not moving. I don't know if what I said was too hurtful, or if he stared at a place for a long time and his eyes were sore, he turned his eyes red! His eyelashes fluttered, and a plump, crystalline teardrop, slipped from the corner of his eye, slowly flowed down his cheek and hung on his chin.
I was shocked and surprised: "Crying??"
"Don't cry, don't cry, it's me who said it wrong, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my mouth that owes, I shouldn't say that, you're good, you're okay. I'm sorry, you don't do this, you don't do this. ”
I was overwhelmed, kept apologizing, and was busy taking the blame on myself, even though I didn't know what I was doing wrong.
I rarely see men crying, how can I comfort them in this situation.
No matter how I coaxed him, Meng Jie didn't say a word, and only cared about crying sadly the whole time. His pitiful and complaining appearance is comparable to the resentful abandoned woman in the big house, blinking his eyes, tears falling like beads like broken threads, rolling all over his face, how aggrieved he is.
I was in a hurry, trying to find a handkerchief to wipe his tears, I touched all over my sleeve, but found nothing, and wanted to wipe him directly with my sleeve, but he was too tall for me to stand on tiptoe, and he refused to bow his head, no way, I could only wait for him to finish crying.
It is said that the tears of beauty make heroes bend their waists, and now it seems that this is really the case. Although I am not a hero, Meng Jie can really be called a beauty. Although he is a man, he is not inferior to a woman when he cries, crying so much that the pear blossoms bring rain, I see pity, very beautiful and smart.
Crying silently, but silently attracted the attention of others, after all, it is rare for a man to cry like this. Passers-by looked sideways, both men and women, with strange eyes. This situation is like the scene where the wife plans to abandon her husband after she has a lover. I couldn't cry or laugh, others couldn't tell me what I was thinking of in my heart, I was very aggrieved, but I couldn't argue, and let others point fingers at me.
Meng Jie, isn't it deliberately ruining me!
Seeing that there were more and more onlookers, I quickly took the horse and dragged him away, and after running out of the encirclement for a long time, when I looked up at Meng Jie, he was still crying!! The expressionless tears shed were very terrifying.
It seems that my words really hurt him.
Under the offensive of his tears, a sense of guilt arose, and I lowered my posture and coaxed him in a good voice, not daring to mention another word that made him sad. But no matter what I said, he didn't say anything, and he was full of hypocritical young lady, and I had no tricks, so I had to let him cry.
I led the horse in front, glancing back at him from time to time to prevent him from committing suicide in a heartbroken state.
"Where did you go to find me?"
This question actually worked, Meng Jie's tears stopped, sniffed, and was a little embarrassed, he should have reacted that he had lost someone, and now he felt embarrassed.
After a long time, when he sorted out his emotions, he had a few words with me.
He said: "In and outside the city, I searched everywhere you could, but I couldn't find it, and I was panicked."
I sighed, "I'm lost, what are you panicking about."
He didn't reply, slightly bent the corners of his mouth, seemed to be smiling, looked at me for a long time, I was very uncomfortable, I turned my back to him, and said angrily: "Inexplicable, crying for a while and laughing for a while, I'm afraid I'm not a fool."
He stretched out his hand and took the horse rope from my hand, and strode forward: "I'll send you home."
I hurried to catch up and tried my best to dissuade: "I don't need to, I can do it myself."
He ignored me and walked so fast that I almost had to trot to catch up.
I took the time to ask him as I watched my steps.
"How long have you been looking for me?"
"Two days, you've been gone for two days, I've been looking for you for two days."
I haven't seen him for two days, so aren't Changji and Duobu in a hurry?
Having said that, I don't know if Duobu can get home safely.
"Then the news of my disappearance, is it already known to everyone, and there are many people looking for me now?"
"There aren't many people sent out to find you, except for me, there should be only Changji."
"What?"
I was devastated, a mouthful of old blood clicked in my throat, and I almost suffocated my internal injuries.
I gritted my teeth and said bitterly, "Why? Am I so unimportant, there are not many people looking for me! ”
"No, precisely because you're too important."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Your identity is special, and it is not appropriate to make a public announcement about this matter, for fear of shocking Your Majesty. So there are only a few people who come to you. ”
His answer was brief, serious, and no longer the hippie smile of the past.
"Oh, that's right. So how did you know about it? ”
My question is not difficult, but when I asked Meng Jie, he kept silent and took bigger steps.
…………
When there was still a street away from King Jing's Mansion, Meng Jie stopped and didn't go any further.
"No, you can go back by yourself."
I looked at his back, I couldn't say a word, he twisted his body, looked down at me deeply, moved his lips, and stopped talking, and finally, I said ruthlessly: "In the future, please don't worry about my business anymore, my troubles, my husband will solve them for me, don't bother you."
At this moment, my face is like a villain who has won a bargain and is well-behaved, trampling on the sincerity of others forever, saying harsh words, and poking at people's sore spots. I don't want to, but I have to.
He smiled, whispered yes, and turned to leave.
Before he went far, I said aloud: "Meng Jie, go find someone who likes you and you like, give her a pot of Molan, and become a family with her."
He never looked back, waving his hand high to say goodbye.
It is a blessing to be remembered by such a person, but if you have no intention, you can't delay it.
I watched his back fade away until it disappeared into the bustling crowd, and I breathed a sigh of relief and happily returned home.
