"Then Suai, will you come back?" The girl looked up, looked at Suai and asked softly.

"I'll go back when I go, silly girl, how can I marry you if I don't come back." Su Ai gently stroked the girl's long hair and said gently.

"Then can you leave again in the winter?" The girl lowered her head, her face reluctant.

Su Aiquan saw it in his eyes and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

"I have something I want to give you, but it's not ready yet." The girl smiled mysteriously and said playfully.

"Okay, then I'll leave in winter." Su Ai touched the girl's hair, looking doting.

More than two months have passed in a blink of an eye, and it is already deep winter, and the day when Su Ai is going to leave is getting closer and closer, but the things she wants to give him have not yet been done, and the girl is anxious.

After a few more days, it snowed heavily in the sky, and it snowed for several days, and the whole mountain was covered with snow.

Early that morning, the girl opened the window and saw that the snow had stopped, and she looked at the thick snow in the yard, thinking that he would soon see what she wanted to give Suai, and she was very happy.

The girl pushed open the door of the next room, looked at Su Ai, who was still asleep, and walked into the mountain with the toolbox on her back, and there was a pit in the thick snow, the girl almost fell down several times, she struggled to move forward in the snow, but thinking of Su Ai receiving the gift, she felt that these roads were not so difficult to walk, and she couldn't help but smile on her face.

Eventually, she stopped at a large waterfall, and after a few days of snowfall, the waterfall had been frozen into a large solid block of ice, and the girl chiseled the ice with great difficulty, and finally chiseled down a large piece of ice with great effort.

She held the ice cube, sat on the stone beside her, spread out the tools and began to carve carefully, because the ice cube was too cold, the girl's hand was frozen red after a while, she put her hand to her mouth and took a few breaths of hot air, and continued to carve after relieving.

A few hours later, a statue of a man about 20 centimeters tall was completed, and the carving was the same as when the girl met Su Ai that night, and saw him - smiling, holding a folding fan, and with a graceful demeanor.

The girl put the ice sculpture in front of her eyes, looked left and right, and looked very much, "He will definitely like it." She held the ice sculpture in her hand, didn't bother to take the toolbox, and trotted happily all the way home, wanting to let Suai see the ice sculpture for the first time.

But as soon as she walked to the door, the expression on her face froze, and she saw that there were many people gathered at the door of the house, and the girl didn't know what was happening, so she squeezed into the crowd and looked around for Su Ai's figure.

The girl looked through the gap in the crowd and saw many people kneeling in front of her house, waiting for someone to come out, and after a while a man in a white mink cloak came out of her house, with a serious expression, and mounted a white horse surrounded by the crowd. "Suai? …… What's going on? The girl murmured, feeling a bad feeling that she was about to lose him.

"Suai! Suai! Seeing that he was about to leave, the girl came back to her senses, broke through the crowd with a flick of her hands, ran in front of Su Ai, and handed him the ice sculpture, "This is the gift I promised you, no matter what, I will be here and waiting for you to return." The girl couldn't stop crying, she looked at Su Ai, and shouted, "You promised me that you would come back, right?" ”

Su Ai took the ice sculpture and held it in her arms, her eyes were full of reluctance, and her eyes were wet with tears, "Girl, wait for me to come back, I promise you, I will definitely come back." He stretched out his hand and reluctantly touched the girl's cheek, and his words were still so gentle.

"Where did the woman come from, don't get in the way, let her leave!" At this time, an older man beside Su Ai looked at the girl in front of him and glanced at the person behind him.

Several men walked up to the girl, and they picked her up, pulled her aside, and returned to Suai and left with him.

Su Ai looked back at the girl behind her step by step, her heart was dripping blood, people looked at the scene in front of them, talking nonsense, they surrounded layer by layer, and inadvertently blocked the girl behind her, and the two of them could never see each other again.

Su Ai walked away, and the girl sat on the ground with tears streaming down her face, "You haven't asked me what my name is, why are you so honest, if I don't say it, you won't ask, Nanxing, my name is Nanxing." ”

Suddenly, it snowed again in the sky, and the girl looked up, and the snowflakes fell on her face and melted into her skin, cold and cold. She closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks, falling to the ground one by one, and the girl's heart suddenly felt empty.

In the spring, the girl thought to herself that it was already a new year, and the new year heralded a good beginning, and Suai would definitely be back! Will he come and marry me? Suai did not return.

In the summer, in the same place where I met him last year, will he still get lost this year? Did he go there again, ready to surprise me? Suai did not return.

In the autumn, the fruit tree hung fruit again, and I didn't snatch the fruits that Su Ai liked to eat the most this time, and I didn't steal any of them, leaving them all for Su Ai. Suai, come back and eat them quickly, if you don't eat them, they'll all be bad. Suai did not return.

The four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter change, and in the blink of an eye it is another winter, and there are fine snowflakes floating in the sky, and the girl stands in the snow, letting the snowflakes fall all over her body, and she looks at the town below the mountain, and her eyes change from expectation to disappointment. Suai did not return.

The girl still sells her carved objects at a stall in the town, but she can no longer carve as lifelike works as before, and her new works seem to have lost their souls, no longer exude aura, and business is not as good as before.

It was another snowy day, and a man in a cloak came to the girl's stall, he bought all the items in the girl's stall, looked at the girl's thinning appearance, sighed, and turned away without saying anything.

"Can you tell me, how is he doing?" The girl asked, looking up at the man's back.

"You?" The man stopped, turned his head and looked at the girl in surprise.

"Even if you cover your face with a cloak, I can recognize you, you were the one who asked them to pull me away and take him away that day." There was not a trace of expression on the girl's face.

"Originally, I didn't want to tell you, I was afraid that you would be sad." The man turned around and returned to the girl's stall, silent for a long time, "He's dead, and he still wants to be with you in the end." Blame me, I shouldn't have broken you up. Hearing this, the girl's emotions collapsed in an instant, and her tears flowed involuntarily.

"What's going on?" The girl cried heartbreakingly.

"That day, after leaving your house, he rode his horse and never left the ice sculpture you gave him, and he finally chose to abandon us and go to you, but probably because it was too late, the sky suddenly snowed again, and on his way back to find you, the horse slipped and fell down the hill." The man fell silent.
