Jiang Yunyu was also eating with others, but the atmosphere at the table was very harmonious.

"Uncle Du has already come, and he won't say a word to Yun Yu, if Yun Yu doesn't invite you, won't you come to see me." Jiang Yunyu said angrily.

Only in front of such close elders can she be coquettish unrestrained. Although she and this uncle have not seen each other for many years.

Only Jiang Yunyu and Du Zhong were on the table, and Dai Nong and Lan Qian stood aside and waited.

In the early years, I heard that Du Zhong was from Lizhou, so I specially ordered the kitchen to make some special dishes of Lizhou, the most famous of which is the peach fat roast pork.

This dish is made by taking the peach fat from the peach tree, soaking it in warm water until soft, removing the outer skin, and putting it in a pot with the best pork belly. After making it, the flesh is ruddy, crystal clear, the mouth is soft and glutinous, fat but not greasy, and the peach blossom aroma is left between the lips and teeth.

Such a delicacy can make people feel happy, and she and this uncle have a good impression, and talk about some pleasant old things, and the guests and hosts have a good conversation.

She still remembers that when she was a child, her father used to talk with him all night, and once she couldn't sleep at night for some reason, and she wanted to go to her father, but the people had no choice but to lead her over.

His father was not in the bedroom, so she went to the study to find someone, and sure enough, the study was dimly lit, and when she pushed the door in, she saw her father and Du Zhong both in tears!

Du Zhong suddenly saw her, as if he was frightened, and was stunned for a while before he turned his back in embarrassment and wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

She was frightened stupid for a moment, hugged his father and began to cry.

Jiang Zhu had to coax her with kind words, it was already the middle of the night, and she sobbed for a while and fell asleep.

She didn't know when Uncle Du left.

Later, Jiang Zhu never mentioned this matter to her again, and so did Du Zhong, they only thought she had forgotten, in fact, she always remembered, but she couldn't take the initiative to mention it.

She couldn't remember when Du Zhong left Wutong Academy, it seemed that one day, she suddenly realized that the gentle uncle hadn't seen her for a long time, she went to ask Jiang Zhu why, Jiang Zhu only said ambiguously, everyone has their own ambitions.

How could she have remembered these old things again?

At that time, Du Zhong was far younger than now, but he was thin, and the gloom between his eyebrows never dissipated.

Speaking of which, Eucommia seems to have aged exceptionally fast over the years. Obviously, Jiang Zhu didn't look like there was any big change from that time, Du Zhong was indeed very haggard, his eyes were dull, and his sideburns even had gray hair!

He's not yet forty!

Jiang Yunyu sighed in her heart.

She was absent-minded and said unintentionally, "I don't know where Uncle Du is now?" ”

She seemed to see the face of the person opposite him stiffen for a moment, and it seemed to be a delusion, because he immediately returned to normal, and she could not see any clues.

Du Zhong picked up a piece of peach fat roast pork and said with a wry smile: "Don't make fun of me, niece, I'm running around now, just to have a full stomach, where can I be called a high student?" ”

Why is that? With my uncle's talent, I definitely won't be like this. Jiang Yunyu was puzzled. She still vaguely remembers that her father spoke highly of this Uncle Du.

He often said that this person's talent is not inferior to mine, if it weren't for those things that happened in his family, he might not be so high-spirited now.

Alas, so he sighed, Jiang Yunyu didn't understand anything at that time, so he also pretended to be old and sighed.

Du Zhong drank the plum wine in the glass, and slammed the white porcelain wine glass on the table with a "dang" sound. Denon quickly refilled it for him.

"That's the way the world is." He sighed, "Don't mention it again niece." ”

Jiang Yunyu had no choice but to sneer: "It's Yunyu who is presumptuous." ”

With her astuteness, she figured out this joint at a moment's notice.

It's nothing more than a story that she didn't meet like her father.

Full of wine and food, Du Zhong was not very free and easy when he said goodbye, and he was very reluctant, and his farewell words were delayed and delayed.

It's not even as free and easy as a woman, "Farewell today, I don't know when we will get together again, Yun Yu wishes Uncle a bright future." Jiang Yunyu arched her hand and said, "If we can meet again one day, I will talk to my uncle again!" ”

Du Zhong got up and returned the salute: "Then I will borrow your auspicious words." ”

"There will be a date later." He smiled very lightly, and if he didn't look closely, he couldn't detect it, and if he looked closely, he might be able to see a hint of bitterness.

Naturally, this will be for the future.

At this time, the shadow of the sun was slanting westward, and the afterglow was full of heads, and the hair of both of them was covered with a layer of light gold.

The sky was full of red glow, and when he looked up, a lonely hung flew by, and suddenly he disappeared, only a few faint wails were heard.

Du Zhong turned around and went out, and sighed: "If you want to ask where Gu Hong is going, I don't know where I am going. ”①

Jiang Yunyu's heart suddenly swelled with a very sad feeling, which made her feel extremely depressed, as if she was involuntary, she couldn't bear to say: "If Uncle is willing, the door of Wutong Academy will always be open, and we will always welcome you back!" ”

Du Zhong didn't look back, and in a place where Jiang Yunyu couldn't see, there were two lines of tears in the corners of his eyes.

There's no going back, he said to himself.

I've long since embarked on a path from which there is no turning back.
