Chapter 52—Outing in the Countryside (3)

In fact, I want to say to Li Xuan that I especially envy the natural hermit style on him (body shēn), holding a sword and riding a horse, leaving behind one (body shēn) care, stepping all over the land of Kyushu, traveling the world's famous rivers, meeting people with lofty ideals, and not being burdened by fame. Maybe I am destined not to live this kind of life, and Li Xuan's appearance touched my heart extraordinarily. What he has is exactly what I dreamed of.

He was the first person I envied from the bottom of my heart.

The sky was high and the clouds were light, I was closing my eyes and pretending to sleep, maybe because Li Xuan's company made me very relaxed, and I fell asleep after a while. I didn't sleep long before I was awakened by the neighing of horses, I raised my eyelids lightly, and dimly saw that Li Xuan was motionless and wrapped his wide sleeves directly above my face, blocking the bright and dazzling sunlight for me.

His thoughtful gaze fell on the distance, I couldn't see through what I was thinking, my face was flushed, a little embarrassed, he kindly asked me to relax, I actually fell asleep easily. When he saw me waking up slowly, he withdrew his sleeves without a trace, as if it was extremely natural to do these little things for me: "Awake? ”

"Yes." I sat up and rubbed my sun (acupuncture xué), still sleepy: "How long have I been asleep?" ”

"About half an hour."

He replied easily, and my heart warmed, so to speak, he shaded me for nearly half an hour, only to listen to his words: "When you are sober, get on the horse, I want to take you to a place." ”

He could not tolerate my refusal, his index finger curled to his lips and blew a crisp whistle, and two well-built horses happily swung their tails towards us, and he took the lead in getting up (body shēn), and after a few strokes of the hem of his robe, his flat gaze fell on my shoulder, and naturally extended his right hand to me, signaling to pull me to my feet. I narrowed my eyes a little shyly, and carefully put my hand into his palm, and he took my hand and led me to stand firmly, and the horse stopped in front of the two of us, and he said softly, "I'll help you get on the horse." ”

When I sat upright on the horse's back, he rolled over and got on the horse, kicking the horse's belly, and this time he was no longer walking with me, but said, "Follow me." I couldn't figure out what medicine he was selling in his gourd, so I had to instinctively catch up, his riding skills were excellent, and I was far behind at my speed, and I kept a considerable distance from him from beginning to end, and he led me to gallop in the wilderness, so unpleasant.

It's been a long time since I've been so willful, and my heart (情qíng) is more and more fluttering, and I can't help but laugh. Seeing the scenery constantly changing and retreating, Li Xuan didn't give me a chance to catch up with him at all, and sat on the horse like Mount Tai, leaving me with only a resolute back.

Just when I was about to be too bumpy, I finally came to the end of the trip, I thought he would take me to some mysterious place, and when a large pink peach blossom could not wait to imprint into my eyes, my whole heart melted into a pool of (spring chūn) water in the fluttering petals in the sky. How could he bother me like this without showing a trace? I couldn't tell whether the scene was real or unreal, and I just let my heart get lost in a large expanse of vivid pink.

Li Xuan dismounted one step ahead of me, he was like a perfectly carved jade statue, a (body shēn) white-clothed pen (quite tǐng) standing under the most luxuriant peach tree, with a few mischievous petals falling lightly on his shoulders, lining his whole person like Lan Ruozhi, handsome and elegant. Such a man with outstanding looks is the person in every dream of a young girl.

The same is (body shēn) dressed like snow-white, Dugu Hao's waves ((swing dàng) dàng) are frivolous, but Li Xuan is noble and fragrant, it is really an underground, a sky, the stars are side by side with the bright moon, and the height is immediate.

How familiar is this scene? How similar is that afternoon encounter? It's so fast to revisit the old place.

I forgot to get off the horse in a daze, and it wasn't until the horse came close to him that I subconsciously pulled the reins, I sat on the back of the horse and looked at him intently, forgetting how to react, this scene was like a fantasy in the painting, and he still smiled lightly: "Miss Qin, do you remember the shape of you and me when we first met?" ”

"Naturally, I can't forget it, I'm afraid I can't forget it in this life." I meditated in my heart, but I couldn't say this, (body shēn) is a woman, no matter how free and laissez-faire is after all, I am thin-skinned, in the end, I am afraid that I will do more (情qíng), afraid that he will have nothing (情qíng) for me, and more (情qíng) will always be annoyed by nothing.

When he saw that I didn't answer, he didn't feel embarrassed, and said calmly: "What I saw and heard in that (Rirì) is always unforgettable. ”

Following his words, I also recalled a series of foolish things I did that day, which can be described as losing face in front of him.

"Why should you be a thief? Xuan Cumin One (身shēn) has been floating for many years, and he has never met such an interesting woman as Miss Qin. Miss Qin's every move is always unexpected and very pleasantly surprised. His expression was as calm as if he were talking about a friend I had known for many years, leaving my thoughts wandering in vain, and I could not guess his intentions. I sat still on my horse, silent, as if no amount of words was enough to hide my panic at this time.

He didn't have any feelings for me, and even I was a special presence for him, and I shouldn't be just a passerby, should I?

A beautiful and graceful flute sound entered the ears with the wind, and even I, a person who did not understand the rhythm of music, could feel the calmness of my mind, as if I had washed away the world. Between the vast heaven and the earth, he is the only one who walks through wantonly, swaying freely.

At that time, I was short-sighted, like a blind man crossing the river on men and women (情 qíng) without anyone to dial it, I didn't hear that this was a song of seeking (love ài) Guan Ju song, it was good to listen to, but I didn't understand the meaning of the side at all, so that after the song was played, Li Xuan looked at my expression, and was immediately stunned, and put away a light smile: "I thought too much." ”

I didn't know what he meant, I couldn't figure out the intention of his words, he breathed a sigh of relief, didn't mind my hindsight, and said gently: "That's it, accompany me to the peach forest for a walk." ”

The air is filled with sweet smells, and we walk side by side like the most beautiful painting in the world.

"It was at this time that my father met my mother, and the sky was clear. The mother's (sex xìng) son is the most tranquil as water, and the father who has always been gentle and calm has become a good couple. ”

"My father came out of a family, understood etiquette and was not formal, and he never valued the class (body shēn), and he made friends with people with lofty ideals all over the world. When I met the right mother, I was a good couple, which was an unexpected joy. However, I also learned about these old things from others after remembering them. When my father died, I was still an infant, and then my two brothers died one after another, and my mother remarried and sent me away. ”

I have heard a little about his (身shēn) life, and the last time I heard him mention that he had felt hardships, without the protection of his parents' family, and was adrift when he was a child, how much hardship did he have to taste unknown to him? Perhaps at the age when I had no worries about food and clothing, he could not even guarantee basic food and clothing, and even if his tone was bland, I felt that no matter how beautiful the scenery was, he could not calm the pain of his youth.

"When I grew up, I traveled around the world, saw different customs and people, and the world was so big that I hadn't found a place where I really belonged. After the crown, I would occasionally wonder if one day my wife would abandon me like my mother if she had suffered a tribulation. ”

"Qin Xi, a person can have countless places of peace (body shēn), but his heart will only choose one place to perch." He raised his lips and smiled suddenly: "You are still young, you don't understand this, you will understand it slowly." ”

He seemed to be spoiled, I was vaguely unconvinced, and said in a muffled voice: "I'm sixteen, not a child anymore." "What I didn't say was that at my age, I could have married a woman in Qinzhou a long time ago. When I was young, I always wanted to grow up faster, and when I met a true person, I couldn't be separated. When I was a child, I thought that in the future, my husband must be as long as my father and mother, and even if I die, he will not forget to marry someone else.

"The world's peach blossom luck, probably the peach blossom can really bring a good marriage of fate." He seems to be talking to himself, so inadvertently, provoking my heart ((swing dàng) dàng) Yang, the king's heart is my heart, but I hope that the heart is not deceiving.

Marriage has its own destiny, but I believe in holding fate on my own. It is said that things are man-made, and if you have not done your best, how can you listen to the destiny of heaven?

"Li Xuan, do you like Qinzhou?" Qinzhou's mountains and rivers nurture people, the people are open, and more importantly, I was born in Qinzhou, and the governor is in Qinzhou, can he hear my words?

"The people of Qinzhou are outstanding, and the place that Miss Qin said is good is naturally very good." He replied and didn't seem to answer, and Miss Qin knocked our relationship back to the original point, I really couldn't figure out what he was thinking, I saw him stop, turned (shēn) to face me, his gentle gaze fell on my face, and told him frankly: "Tomorrow (day) I will leave Qinzhou, and I will have a small gathering with you before leaving, which should be a simple farewell." In just a few days together, Miss Qin has brought me a lot of happiness. ”

"What do you say?! You're leaving?! Why the hurry?! "I thought we would have a lot of opportunities to stay together after today, but I didn't expect the separation to come so quickly. I wasn't mentally prepared at all, and I was extremely disappointed. He is like the wind that roams freely, leaving this time, the vast sea of people does not know when they will see each other again.

"What I have to do in Qinzhou has come to an end, it's time to go back to Daqi. A friend wrote to inform him that his father was critically ill, and the old man was kind to me, so I went to see the old man for the last time. ”

It turned out to be a sudden, and I felt better, thinking that the separation was imminent, I only turned reluctant and sullen: "In this case, I only wish you a smooth journey and a safe arrival." ”

He saw that my eyebrows were dyed with sorrow, and comforted me lightly: "The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, I have a sincere relationship with Miss Qin, regardless of whether we get along for a long time or not, Miss Qin is transparent, and she should understand that there is no banquet in the world." ”

There are times when we get together, there are times when we part, no matter how reluctant we are, it is better to be honest: "I understand that you have to leave sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to be so fast, I can't keep you and have to say goodbye to you seriously." ”

I "draw" the hairpin between the departure to him: "I knew that you were not a thing in the pool, even if the Great Qi is vast, you will go to a place as luxurious as the capital, the power under the feet of the Son of Heaven is complicated, this hosta is made of red coral, its shape is designed by my father himself, looking at Kyushu only this one, as a last resort, I hope it can help you tide over the difficulties." There is a money village in the capital with the word 'Xi' embedded, which is the property of the Qin family, you just have to take this thing to the shopkeeper, and he will definitely do his best to help. ”

"But Li Xuan, I'd rather you wouldn't use it that day."

Even if a superficial friend can "happen" to buy a house with good conditions in Qinzhou, how can a friend in the capital be an ordinary person? My lack of experience does not mean ignorance, and his indifference does not mean that he has no ambition, cannot bear to separate, and does not want him to forget all the things we have experienced in Qinzhou. What can be done for him is only the meager support of money.

He sighed lightly, took the hairpin and put it in his arms, that was my heart, he should cherish it: "When I return to Qinzhou, I will return the hosta to its original owner." ”

I am a stubborn person in my bones, and I didn't think about taking back what I gave away, so I said vigorously: "If you really want to thank me, leave me a piece of your belongings, and we will be even, and we will not owe each other." ”

He chuckled: "Miss Qin treats me well, I won't forget it." If there is something indebted, I owe more to the young lady. ”

He took out a beautifully carved brocade box from his sleeve, took my hand and handed the box to me, I opened it and looked, it was a pair of beautifully made handcrafts, the style was simple and generous, I was very happy to see that it was my daughter's household things, I was very happy, pretending to be arrogant and said: "Put the things of my daughter's family on (body shēn), if it is not me who sees me today, you should not give it to other girls, right?" ”

"Originally, it was a gift for Miss, and I hope Miss will accept it. This is a pair of bracelets left by my mother when she sent me away, not a precious material, when my father made a lot of jewelry for my mother, only this one was left. ”

"Since it is the only thing that your mother left you, why did you give it to me? I'm not a person who can keep things, so if you break it and lose it, don't blame me. "He said that he was suspected of cheating me, but in his heart it was beautiful, this is not an ordinary gift, a pair of handbags that don't look valuable, comparable to a heavy promise of his, worth a thousand words.

"In my opinion, no one deserves it more than Miss Qin."

The moment of separation is close at hand, and it turns into a sentence: "You and I will always see each other again." I hope that when I get there, Miss Qin will still be as smooth as she is now. ”
