Chapter 32 The sound of books in the night rain accompanies people to sleep
Li Huaishu has already purchased a coffin for Ye Rong and has chosen a piece of feng shui treasure. Xue Mingcan's eyes were red, and he knelt in front of Ye Rong's coffin, and said in a dumb voice: "I want to take Master back to Qiuye Mountain." ”
She thought that Master would not like to stay in the capital. With their tranquil courtyards and verdant trees, the hills are far away from it all. She is going to bury Master on Mount Qiuye, plant a pine and cypress next to his tomb, cast the shade of a tree in the hot summer, and shelter from the wind and rain in the autumn and winter.
"If you carry the coffin back to Mount Choya, it will take you less than a month. By then, Mr. Ye's body is afraid to be decomposed. Li Huaishu had already expected Xue Mingcan's thoughts, and he continued, "I have already chosen a piece of feng shui treasure land for my husband, why not let him enter the soil early?" ”
Xue Mingcan didn't speak, the leaves fell into the ground, and the person died and was buried. She wanted to take Ye Rong back to Qiuye Mountain, but the road was long, and the corpse would rot. If, if cremation...... She can then return to Mt. Choya with Master's ashes.
Li Huaishu said again: "The doctor said that your body is weak and you need to recuperate. If you carry the coffin back to Qiuye Mountain, can you guarantee that you will not get sick and will not have an accident on the way? Mr. Ye, he is dedicated to you, and when he sees you like this under Jiuquan, I am afraid that he will not be at ease. ”
Mr. Ye, he is dedicated to you...... In this world, the master who was the best for her and dedicated to her is no longer there. Xue Mingcan covered his eyes and sobbed lowly.
She had wanted to travel the world with her, and she had thought that one day Master would see her get married and have children, but she had not yet had time to repay Master and be filial to Master.
Li Huaishu half-squatted down and gently patted Xue Mingcan's back. If you cover your eyes, won't others see you crying?
The autumn wind blew into the hall, and Xue Mingcan was cold. At first, she was too sad to notice it, but later, the coldness became heavier and heavier, and it grew from within. Her head ached faintly, she wiped her tears, looked at Li Huaishu, and before she could speak, she fell down in a dizziness.
She slept for a long time and had a long dream. In the dream, she was still in Mt. Choya. Ye Rong took her to collect medicine, and it suddenly rained in the sky. She and Ye Rong hurriedly ran back, she fell, and shouted "Master". When she stood up, everything around her changed, and Ye Rong fell in the rain with a bloodless face. She was soaking wet and shook Ye Rong vigorously, "Master, Master!" ”
She woke up from the darkness of the night, the autumn rain was falling outside, and the rumbling thunder exploded overhead, and she was frightened and exclaimed. Soon someone broke down the door and lit the lights in the house.
Li Huaishu saw Xue Mingcan sitting on the bed with him in his arms, trembling. The windows were closed tightly, and the doors were closed with his hands. Then she shivered not from the cold, but from fear.
"Mingcan." Li Huaishu stood in front of Xue Mingcan's bed and called.
Xue Mingcan raised his head and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Li Huaishu doesn't live here, and according to reason, he really shouldn't be here in the middle of the night. During the day, Xue Mingcan suddenly fainted, and after the doctor's diagnosis, he said that she was too cold in her body, and she was too sad and weak. She was drenched in heavy rain and lost her loved ones, how could she be physically and mentally?
She was still asleep when he left, and he couldn't rest assured, so he naturally wanted to come back and have a look.
"I don't worry about you."
Xue Mingcan tried hard to make a smile and say words of thanks, but he couldn't do anything. She said, "Am I terrible now? Isn't it a burden? ”
"Of course not."
Xue Mingcan didn't speak anymore, the master was dead, and she was different. There was another thunderclap, and she subconsciously covered her ears and shrank back. In the past, she was not afraid of rain or thunder, and even felt that rain and thunder could dispel heat and boredom, which was very pleasant. And now, she is disgusted and afraid of rain and thunder. Such weather reminded her of Master's death.
"Mingcan, don't be afraid." Li Huaishu tested the temperature between Xue Mingcan's forehead with his hand, but it was still very hot. He put a quilt over her body: "Don't be afraid, go to sleep, sleep and get up, and everything will be fine." ”
Xue Mingcan pulled the quilt and lay down. Seeing this, Li Huaishu was about to leave, but was grabbed by Xue Mingcan. He looked back and saw her looking at him with a look of hesitation.
"Can you stay with me for a while?" She knew that such a request was rude, and she knew that there was a difference between men and women, and that it was not appropriate to do so. But I don't know when the rain will stop.
"Okay."
Li Huaishu moved a chair, sat in front of the bed, and said, "I'm right here." ”
"Can you speak, I don't feel comfortable listening to the sound of the rain." Xue Mingcan said again.
Li Huaishu brought a book and said, "I'll read to you, okay?" ”
Xue Mingcan nodded.
The book Li Huaishu reads is a travelogue, which tells the story of a ranger who travels all over the famous mountains and rivers in the north and south of the country. Xue Mingcan listened and suddenly smiled: "I have read this book." ”
Li Huaishu naturally knew that she had read this book, and this was the one she was on Qiuye Mountain. He smiled slightly and said, "Do you like it?" ”
"I like it."
Li Huaishu continued to read, and the sound of rain outside the window became quieter. Sleepiness hit, and Xue Mingcan gradually fell asleep.
