Chapter Ninety-Eight: Farther and Farther Away

Akiyama is married

It was at this time of noon that his father and his father's friend gave the life's events of their thirteen-year-old son and twelve-year-old daughter. The exchange of name stickers and birthdays is equivalent to performing the first two of the six rites. No matter how Akiyama resisted, his father had always been strong.

"Sakura......" Akiyama's voice was hoarse and clear, like a seventy-year-old man, full of bitterness and indescribable sourness: "You...... Why are you here......"

Cherry was startled, hurriedly pushed open the door, and went in to support him gently: "Brother Akiyama, what's wrong with you?" ”

Akiyama's eyebrows have always been bright, and his eyes, which have always been full of sunshine, are full of tears at this time. The hand trembled slightly, and the voice was also trembling slightly, with hoarseness and crying: "I, I ......"

"Sister Cherry, my brother...... He was married. Qiu Hong came out of the house, her eyes red. Brother likes Sister Cherry, she knows it. Sensible like her, she has been silently supporting her brother, helping him carry the work of the family, and helping him take care of the younger brothers at home, just to help his brother create opportunities to be with Sister Cherry. But who knows...... I knew that she wouldn't call her brother back at noon.

"Married? Which woman? Cherry was a little puzzled, it's a good thing to marry, why are the two brothers and sisters like the boss is reluctant? But of course, this is not to be asked.

"My father's friend's family is only a year older than you." Qiuhong sniffed, glanced at Qiushan cautiously, and said, "Sister Cherry...... My brother was ......"

"Autumn Red!" Qiu Shan raised his head sharply and drank Qiu Hong, and glared at her viciously: "Shut up!" You go inside! ”

Qiuhong obediently lowered her head, glanced at the cherry again, turned around and went into the house, lying on the windowsill with Qiushu and Qiuye, looking at the two people in the courtyard.

"Sakura......" Akiyama hung his head slightly, his eyes were narrowed, his hands trembled slightly, and his tall and burly figure looked so weak at this time, as if he was going to fall down at any time.

"Brother Akiyama, what's going on?" Cherry was really a little puzzled: "You came to me, is this what you are looking for?" Are you reluctant to do this? If you don't want to, just tell your father and mother, and they won't force you. ”

"I don't want to, but what can I do?" As if he was really powerless, Qiu Shan leaned his back against the wall, hung his head, and said faintly: "I told my father, but what does he care about?" His friend's daughter is only twelve years old, only a year older than you, but how can she match you...... Sakura, where did you go in the morning, why did you come back? Even if you can come back earlier, I will ......" said, raising his eyelids with difficulty, looking at the cherry with hope and reluctance.

These words and this look made Cherry 'chuckle' in her heart. Akiyama, he won't be ......

Akiyama sniffed again, his eyelids slowly lifted, as if he had made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said softly: "Sakura, are you willing to follow me?" As long as you say yes, even if my father beats me to death, I will push this family away. If he doesn't, I'll take you away, and I'll be able to go wherever I go, and as long as I have you, I'll be satisfied. As long as I have me, I will never starve you. ”

Cherry shook in her heart, her eyes widened, and she opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. Akiyama he really ...... But I have always treated him as a brother, just like Wenhe and Wenhai, respecting, loving, kissing, and respecting.

Seeing Cherry's appearance, the hope in Akiyama's eyes dimmed a little, and he seemed to be a little depressed, faint: "I know, I know...... You have always been good friends with Runsheng, how can you be willing to ...... me?"

Cherry wants to say that I don't have that kind of relationship between men and women, and it's also a brother and sister relationship. But what's the use of saying that at this time? She looked down at the mud under her feet, and felt as if there were small insects crawling all over her body, and no place was comfortable.

Akiyama is married, and Cherry was originally happy for him. But listening to his words, I felt inexplicably uncomfortable. She and Akiyama, even if there is no barrier from this family business, it is absolutely impossible. Now, she can only pray, hoping that Akiyama can restore his innocent, happy and fearless character, accept this family business as soon as possible, and be happy as soon as possible. Hope...... This does not affect their relationship. But...... How can it not be affected......

Akiyama is married, and the sisters of the Yue family are happy for him. After all, in the countryside, it is a happy event to be able to get a family affair early. Originally, the star fruit was to watch the Mid-Autumn Mountain, and this kid has always taken good care of the cherries and cared about them very much. But slowly, over time, they discovered that the cherries did not match Akiyama. Where they don't match, they can't say, they just feel that they don't match. Now that Akiyama has decided to marry, they are naturally sincerely happy.

Akiyama got married and eliminated a big enemy, but Runsheng's heart was not relieved. Somehow, he always felt that his cherries were getting farther and farther away from him, more and more blurry, and he couldn't hold on to them......

Akiyama is married, and it is just an ordinary happy event news in Xiaomiao Village, and after two days, no one has mentioned it again.

And Miao Qiushan, who is one of the protagonists of this happy event, has not gone out for three days at home.

On this day, the sisters of the Yue family were sorting out the accounts in the house and counting the money, when there was an urgent knock on the door outside the courtyard.

Mian Tao hurriedly put away the money and asked Cherry to open the door.

It was Qiu Hong who came in. She was full of anxiety, grabbed the cherry, as if she was about to cry: "Sister Cherry!" My brother hasn't eaten for three days, and the whole person is not the same. I think you are the only one who can persuade him, please help me persuade him, okay? ”

"What?" Cherry was startled, hurriedly looked back and shouted at the star fruit in the house, turned around and ran out of the yard with Qiuhong, and ran towards the small bridge to the east.

When he arrived at Akiyama's house, his father was not at home, and his mother was waiting at the gate of the courtyard. Autumn Tree and Autumn Leaf were both guarding in front of their brother's kang, drooping their heads one by one, and they were also worried.

Miao Qiushan sat on the kang with his back half-hunched, haggard as if he was terminally ill, his expression was brittle and dull, and his eyes were staring at the windowsill without blinking.

Seeing Cherry come in, Akiki and Akiba both went out.

"Brother Akiyama?" Cherry stepped forward, carefully, and shook her hand in front of him: "Brother Akiyama? ”

Akiyama's eyes rolled, as if he had come back to his senses. Seeing that it was a cherry, his face regained a bit of vitality: "Sakura ......"

"Brother Akiyama, what are you doing?" Seeing that he could still listen to the words, Cherry sighed lightly, sat on the edge of the kang gently, and persuaded softly: "If you really don't want to do this family business, just talk to your uncle, he will never force you." But you don't have to look like this, not only do you suffer yourself, but you also have to worry about your aunt and Qiuhong. Look at the autumn trees and autumn leaves, they all make you scared, such a raw doll, a slumped, like an old man in his seventies and eighties. Besides, I heard Qiu Hong say, that girl is a good one, not only looks handsome, but also a housemaid who can pick up everything, and is still a virtuous and knowledgeable person, what are you suspicious of? ”

"Sakura...... Why don't you want to follow me? Akiyama didn't answer the cherry's words, but looked at the cherry: "In the future, I can no longer go up the mountain with you to catch hares, go into the water to catch wild ducks, and I can't go to the beach to pick up seafood, there is nothing new and interesting......

Cherry was a little crying and laughing: "Who said you can't go together?" Don't say that you are only married now, not married. Even if you get married, you can go into the mountains with us to catch wild things, and if you are happy, you can also bring your daughter-in-law. Even if I get married, won't you be able to come to see me often? I'll come back to see you often. ”

"......" Akiyama seemed to be a little stunned, staring, and only reacted after a while: "Really? ”

"Naturally, it's true, do you see which man's family has become a parent, and he won't go out of the door, and the second door will not step out? I advise you, eat quickly, drink when you should drink, wash when you should wash, and you see that you are hungry, and it is all like this. Cherry smiled slightly, tentatively, gently, and took Akiyama's hand: "Brother Akiyama, you are like my Brother Wenhe and Brother Wenhai, that is, you have become a parent, have a wife, have a son, and are still my brother." We can still play together and go up the hill together. Look at my brother Wenhe, don't you often go to my house to sit now? And we are very good with my sister-in-law, we often go to the river together to do laundry, and when it rains, we also go up the mountain to pick wild mushrooms. She guessed that Akiyama's liking for her was not that kind of liking, but just some kind of possessiveness peculiar to teenagers.

Sure enough, Akiyama didn't react much to her holding hands, on the contrary, it was natural, just like a real sister holding her brother's hand. Hope ignited in his eyes again, his eyes had a little brightness, and he held Cherry's hand with his backhand: "This is what you said, if there is any good thing next time, you must not only take Runsheng and forget me." ”

"That's nature. I've always come to see you as your own brother. Cherry thought a little sourly in her heart, but I had to leave here for a while because of the situation, and I hope that during this period, you can remember this sentence: "You hurry up, hurry up and start eating, what do you think of my aunt and Qiuhong?" ”

"Eat, eat!" Akiyama's face looked good, he bent his eyes, and smiled slightly: "I'll eat it now!" ”

Cherry jumped down from the kang with a smile: "You eat something first, clean up, get up early tomorrow, let's go to Linhai Village to catch the tide!" ”

"Good!" Akiyama was happy and shouted to Qiuhong to take food. Qiu Shan Niang and Qiu Hong suddenly hurried to work happily.

Cherry took advantage of the chaos and retreated from the house, secretly glad that Akiyama was fine.

Just thinking about it, a figure walked by outside the courtyard, and looked, a little familiar.
