That night, An Qingming had a dream.

It's a dream or not a dream, and it's back to three years ago in an instant.

That was the name Xu Huai'an, and it was the first time it broke into her mind.

It was her birthday, and the house was full of all kinds of gifts, all of which were sent by the close shopkeeper, including fat powder and silk, jade and calligraphy and painting, all of which were valuable gadgets.

She was still young at the time, but she didn't like to look left and right, she let Hitomi throw all her brains into the storeroom, and after hesitating left and right, she still went to the backyard.

Mrs. An was worshipping the Buddha, she was in very poor health, and when she saw her, she got up with a smile: "Qingming is here." ”

An Qingming said "um", and Mrs. An looked at her: "Why is it empty today?" ”

There was incense burning in the small courtyard, which was very pleasant, An Qingming opened her mouth, but she didn't spit out a word, and it took a long time before she said: "Come and see my mother, I miss you." ”

She said a little coquettishly, and Mrs. An smiled and patted her hand: "You girl, how old are you to talk to your mother like this, it's time to make others laugh." ”

Mrs. An was weak and fell asleep after not being able to say a few words, so An Qingming had no choice but to leave.

When she walked to the general, the nurse chased her out of the yard, holding a bowl of noodles in her hand: "Miss, let's eat noodles first and then leave!" The old slave cooked it for you! ”

The bowl is a white porcelain bowl, the noodles are longevity noodles, sprinkle a handful of green onions, drop a few drops of sesame oil, decorate a few small cabbages, and the green pearls are general.

An Qingming didn't know where she was wronged, her eyes were rolling with enthusiasm, she took it from the nurse's hand, and then left without looking back, not even saying a polite word, very unlike her.

The bowl of noodles didn't enter her stomach after all, as long as she opened her mouth, the beads in her eyes seemed to fall off, which was so annoying that she pushed the bowl and chopsticks and went straight out.

She didn't go to the tea plantation, she didn't have a few shops, and she didn't even go in when she passed by the tea house.

Walked all the way to the south of the city, there is an eye-catching shop in the south of the city, the shop is opened by an old couple, they have no children and no daughters, the two support half a life, when they were young, they set up a wonton stall in the south of the city, and it has been open for 20 years.

The stall is not big, there are four tables in total, An Qingming came early, and there was no one in the stall.

An Qingming found a seat and sat down, the shop was filled with the fragrance of wontons, the old woman asked her what she was eating with a smile, she casually ordered a wonton, the old woman went with a smile, the store was very quiet, you could hear the sound of the soup rolling, occasionally mixed with a few old couples bickering, warm and quiet, facing the sunset and the years were quiet.

Xu Huai'an came in at this time, the corners of his clothes were stained with moisture, and he didn't know where he came from. He had a very close relationship with the old couple, as soon as he came, he came to the old woman's side, laughed and shouted "mother-in-law", the intimacy was tight, the old woman was amused by him and giggled, saying that he should sit aside for a while and cook wontons for him, Xu Huai'an's joy came from the depths of his heart, and he felt jealous of his true feelings in such a small voice.

An Qingming glanced sideways at him, and Xu Huaian also happened to turn around and saw him.

Xu Huai'an was stunned for a moment, then happy, and then went straight to her table: "The girl doesn't mind, right?" ”

In the time when An Qingming wanted to say "mind", he had already sat down by himself, and the two in An Qingming's throat and eyes did not speak.

The old woman came out with two bowls of wontons, and when she saw Xu Huai'an changing her seat, she was a little dazed: "You know?" ”

Xu Huai'an smiled happily, and just as he was about to speak, he heard An Qingming's voice clear and clear like spring water: "I don't know." ”

Xu Huai'an's eyebrows instantly drooped, but soon, he raised his head again and smiled: "Isn't this an acquaintance?" ”

He looked at An Qingming: "My name is Xu Huai'an, Miss An, what do you call me?" ”

An Qingming: "......"

The old woman smiled and put down the wontons for them, and said to An Qingming: "This kid is very mixed, if the girl minds, change the seat to me." ”

It stands to reason that An Qingming should mind, if it were on weekdays, she would have changed her seat without looking back or left directly, but today was a little special, she was very afraid of being alone, so she sat opposite her with this hanging-up man.

An Qingming's first impression of Xu Huai'an was that this man was really noisy.

Don't you know how to close this mouth?

Xu Huai'an chattered, non-stop, An Qingming almost wanted to write out the big words "eat without saying a word" and paste them on his head.

Xu Huai'an said that he went out of the city, and the chrysanthemums outside the city bloomed, which were very beautiful, and began to say that he saw smoke floating in the temple, and almost called someone to put out the fire.

He is accustomed to telling stories, telling them vividly, in his words, An Qingming's impatient grievances were wiped away little by little, and he even followed his description with ups and downs, as if all the scenery was what she saw with her own eyes, and all the experiences were her own experience.

It was probably the longest bowl of wontons An Qingming had ever eaten, ten wontons, and she had eaten it for nearly half an hour.

When the last wonton entered her mouth, she was reluctant at all.

Probably because the wontons in this house are so delicious, An Qingming thought, just come and eat them a few more times in the future.

When An Qingming left, Xu Huaian got up and said, "Wait." ”

An Qingming really stopped, and Xu Huaian didn't know where to conjure up a handful of wildflowers.

"That," he looked a little embarrassed, "I picked it from outside the city, it's not a precious breed, but I think it's pretty good, and it goes well with Miss An." ”

"If you don't dislike it, take it."

It stands to reason that An Qingming will not accept it.

But today's truth is not a reason, An Qingming looked at Xu Huai'an, and felt that this person was really hateful, and repeatedly undermined her principles.

She smiled when she saw that she had accepted the bouquet of wildflowers.

"Thank you, I love it."

This is the end of the dream, dissolving in the scent of wildflowers.

An Qingming opened her eyes, and what came into her eyes was the bed curtain.

Probably really stunned, I actually dreamed of things so long ago.

Hitomi came to call her to get up, and looked at her face while changing her clothes, Hitomi smiled on her face, she has always been steady, and it is rare to be so happy.

An Qingming couldn't help but ask her: "What good things happened today, you are so happy." ”

Hitomi smiled with crooked eyebrows: "The big girl is very happy today, and Hitomi is also happy." ”

An Qingming's smile froze on her face, and she was a little hesitant: "What do you think...... Am I happy? ”

"Big girl...... Not happy? ”

An Qingming was puzzled: "Haven't I always been like this?" ”

Hitomi finished dressing for her and straightened her clothes: "It's different, the big girl's eyes are crooked today." ”

She pointed to her eyes, bent them up delicately, and motioned for An Qingming to come and see, An Qingming was amused by her and tapped her forehead.

"I think it's the same."

Hitomi pouted, the big girl in the world was the biggest, she said it was the same, it was the same.

The summer in Sanjiang County came to an end in a peaceful one, and the heat of July gradually faded, and with the arrival of a pouring rain, the last trace of the unwilling heat disappeared.

The rain in Sanjiang County rarely rains heavily, it is always gentle and warm, like every living creature born in this land.

It is rare to encounter such a majestic heavy rain, which came on a rampage, with the wind roaring and thundering, and a curious child poked his head out of the window to look, and was caught by his mother pinching his ears.

Three people came down from the stargazing tower, talking and laughing while going downstairs.

Halfway downstairs, Xu Huai settled down, and Ning Peijing turned around and called him: "Yunxiu? ”

Xu Huaian waved his hand: "You go first." ”

Zhou Xu was unhappy: "What are you doing?" Let's go for a drink. ”

Xu Huai'an twisted his head and spun around, very impatient: "Let you go, the wine money will be recorded in my account." ”

"It's not a matter of accounts, I'll tell you......" Zhou Xu cleared his throat, wanting to have a good fight with him, but suddenly spied a half-clue from the crack, his eyes rolled around, and he changed his words: "Okay, okay, it's on your account!" ”

said and put his hand on Ning Peijing's shoulder: "Let's go, let's go first!" ”

Ning Peijing looked left and right at these two people who didn't know what dumb riddles they were playing, and he was very suspicious that he was isolated.

"Wait." Xu Huaian stopped them and stuffed the paper umbrella into Ning Peijing's arms: "You take it." ”

Ning Peijing, who was still in the grief of being isolated just now, quickly rejuvenated because of his warm action, showed a relieved smile, and then excused himself: "No need, Xingzhidu and I have umbrellas." ”

"Let you take it, why is there so much nonsense!" Zhou Xu helped him take the umbrella and stuffed it into his arms.

Ning Peijing: "??? ”

Then Xu Huaian smiled at Zhou Xu: "Please eat." ”

Zhou Xu smiled with a thief's eyebrows: "They are all brothers, understand." ”

Ning Peijing: The feeling of being isolated from "......" has come again, what should I do?

Ning Peijing was still immersed in a daze, and he was puzzled while being dragged away by Zhou Xu: "Don't care about him?" Chang Si didn't follow, the rain outside was so heavy, he didn't leave the umbrella, but how could he ......?"

"Peijing," Zhou Xu couldn't bear to interrupt him, with a look of unbearable expression, "Do you know why you haven't been able to marry a wife so far?" ”

Ning Peijing instantly blushed, he hesitated for a long time, and reluctantly said: "Just talk, why are you still personally attacking." ”

After being silent for a while, he took the initiative to ask, "Why?" ”

Zhou Xu couldn't help laughing, he patted Ning Peijing's shoulder: "Because you're stupid." ”

Ning Peijing was furious: "You and Yunxiu are not married, you are also stupid?" I didn't know that I had already recognized the label of "stupid".

Zhou Xu shook his head and said very profoundly: "Yunxiu is the same as you, I am different." ”

"It's different," Ning Pei thought deeply, "After all, it's not that you don't want to get married, it's that the girl in the dream makeup refuses to let you redeem yourself." ”

Zhou Xu was furious: "What nonsense?!" I just said it casually, and I didn't want to marry her at all! ”

Ning Peijing looked at him with the eyes of a scumbag who had been abandoned from the beginning to the end, Zhou Xu was uncomfortable when he was looked at, and he held up the umbrella by himself: "Let's go quickly!" ”

It was raining heavily outside, and the two of them disappeared in the rain curtain for a while.

Xu Huaian reflexively went upstairs again, it turned out that when he had just gone downstairs, he inadvertently looked up and saw a familiar figure.

An Qingming was reading the brochure of the teahouse, and Wangxinglou had a special brochure for guests to fill out, which recorded the preferences and requirements of the guests in detail.

An Qingming looked down and didn't find that there was another person behind him, but the shopkeeper standing opposite An Qingming found someone coming, and thought he was here to eat tea, and was about to call someone to entertain, but he saw Xu Huaian waving his hand and signaling him not to make a sound.

Xu Huai'an's eyes fell on An Qingming, looking at it with a smile.

The shopkeeper understood, and said no more.
