The summer sun shines on Hua Xuanji through the layers of dense forests, and the warm feeling makes Hua Xuanji can't help but raise her head to meet the warm sunlight and squint her eyes slightly, and the crisp sound of cicadas in her ears from time to time is quiet and peaceful.

After a while, until her neck was a little sore, Hua Xuanji took a deep breath and lowered her head, pursed her lips, and continued to pick up the medicinal herbs in her hand.

Yu Wufang wiped a handful of thin sweat on his smooth forehead, his green eyes were bent into a good-looking arc, his thin lips like cherries were buzzing up and down, and Ye Sheng joked about it, and then picked up the basket with red beans on one side, and said lightly: "When did you buy the beans, they are soft in the shade, and it happens that the sun is good today, so I'll take them out and dry them." As he spoke, he walked out with red beans in his hand, and when he pushed the door open, he happened to see Hua Xuanji who was in a daze with a basket of medicines on the side.

Looking at the face that was becoming more and more beautiful in the warm sun, Yu Wufang couldn't help but curl his lips, but his eyebrows and eyes frowned slightly.

Although he didn't deliberately investigate, with his identity, all the things that happened before Hua Xuanji reached his ears.

When he learned what had happened, he sighed more than once for the woman in front of him.

Sure enough, as he said when he first saw her, she was really a special woman. The strong can pull out a smile in front of people even if she is sad, and the strong makes people want to hold her in her arms and cherish her.

However, no matter how strong she is, every time she sees her stagnant eyebrows, Jade Wufang knows that she is still thinking about that person. That's four years.

Shaking his head helplessly, he was just about to step forward, when a reckless little figure hit his thigh.

Yu Wufang saw that Hua Xuanji was losing her mind, and when she was hit by him like this, she didn't react at once, and her slender hand was deflected, and half a basket of red beans scattered out, and the red beans were scattered on the ground, shining weakly in the sun.

"Oops." The little figure was hit like this, the painful porcelain teeth grinned, just wanted to reach out and rub his head, who knew that one didn't pay attention to stepping on a red bean, his body was crooked, and his butt fell to the ground, and the little hand that wanted to rub his forehead was retracted, and he went to rub his butt instead, and his round little face turned into a small twist because of the pain, which was cute and cute.

Yu Wufang smiled helplessly, put aside the basket containing red beans in his hand, bent down and picked up Qi'er, helped him rub his little head, rubbed his buttocks, and pinched his little nose as if punishing: "Let you walk down the aisle and not look at the road." Does it still hurt? ”

The little figure was already in pain, and was pinched by Yu Wuflaw, and the big black and white eyes immediately became watery, and he suddenly remembered that Hua Xuanji had told him that men can't cry, rubbed his slightly red little nose, and pretended to be disdainful and said: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all, I'm a man, so I'm not afraid of these things." ”

Saying that, he twisted his body like a little snake, and when he looked down, he just saw the culprit who made him fall, and asked with a frowning face, "Uncle Yu, what kind of beans are these?" It's red, it's beautiful. As he spoke, he got out of Yu Wufang's arms, pinched a small bean, raised his innocent little face, and asked sweetly.

Children are always forgetful, and when they see something new, they forget what they were unhappy about.

Hua Xuanji was in a daze, and suddenly heard the sweet voice of her baby son, hurriedly put down the work in her hand, wiped it on the apron in front of her, and walked towards the little figure with an extremely gentle smile.

However, his eyes suddenly stayed on the little bean in the hand of his precious son, and for a while it seemed to have been drained of his soul, and he was stunned there.

Yu Wufang bent down, maintaining the same height as Qi'er, his slender fingers pinched a small red bean from the ground, opened his palm, and patiently explained to Qi'er: "This is called red beans, also called Southern Acacia beans." ”

"Southland Acacia Beans." Qi'er touched her little chin in a good way, and her eyes rolled ghostly, "Red beans are born in the south, and a few branches are sent in spring, that's what you said, right?" ”

"Qi'er is so smart!" Yu Wufang rubbed Qi'er's hair with a little joy, raised his eyes and saw Hua Xuanji standing aside, pulled out a gentle smile, and called out extremely gently: "Xuanji." ”

"Mother." Qi'er got out of Yu Wuji's hand like a little rabbit, hugged Hua Xuanji's thigh, and brought the red beans in his hand in front of Hua Xuanji. said happily: "Mother, look at it, how beautiful these beans are." ”

"Pretty, pretty." Hua Xuanji reached out a little smugly to take the red beans handed to her by Qi'er, her eyes slowly became sluggish, and her heart seemed to be bitten by countless small insects together.

It's been four years, it's not long, it's not short at all, but the second she put the cold beans in the palm of her hand, Hua Xuanji's memory suddenly reverberates, and her eyes seem to be back to four years ago, back to the lantern festival, back to the night full of fireworks, the handsome man with a face like a thousand-year-old ice lotus, carefully selected red beans for her, and returned to the barracks full of fireworks, he slowly stabbed the sword into her chest, and the red beans were immersed in bright red blood, so dazzling. In an instant, mixed feelings, memories that I had been eager to forget slowly came to my mind, and a layer of hazy water swelled up under my inky eyes.

"Xuanji?" Yu Wufang screamed with some doubts, looked at her eyes that were slowly reddening as she looked at the red beans, and suddenly understood, and hurriedly snatched the red beans in her hand, and comforted her softly: "It's all over." ”

The feeling of the empty palm of her hand made Hua Xuanji suddenly react to her abnormality, raised her eyes and glanced at Qi'er, who was looking at her suspiciously, and quickly wiped away a handful of tears and pulled out a smile: "It's okay." ”

"Why is it okay, my mother is crying." Qi'er pouted dissatisfiedly, looked at the pile of beans on the ground and said angrily: "It's all these beans that are not good, and Qi'er will throw them all away later, mother, don't cry, don't cry, mother said that men can't cry, you see, Qi'er didn't cry when she fell just now." ”

"Flutter." Hua Xuanji was amused by Qi'er's pretending to be serious, reached out and pinched his white and tender face, squinted her eyes and asked with a smile: "But my mother is a woman......

"This ...... This ......" Qi'er bit her lip, rubbed her head in annoyance, and looked at Hua Xuanji and Yu Wuflawless as they couldn't hold back their laughter, and their little faces turned red.

As soon as he looked up, he happened to meet Qingge who came out with the dishes, and he twisted out of Hua Xuanji's arms like a little snake, and happily waved his little hand at Hua Xuanji: "Mother, come to eat, Qi'er is hungry." ”
