Chapter 35: The Heart of the Forest
The shopping guide smiled and said, "Your boyfriend is so nice to you." ”
"He's my wife." Shen Ming explained.
I was holding something from Shen Ming in my hand, and my heart suddenly felt a little confused.
After coming out, he sat on the big red Rolls-Royce and asked, "Shen Ming...... How can you have so much money? ”
Shen Ming glanced at me, "You think Lone is like you?" ”
"Then why do they all seem to know you?"
Shen Ming stretched out his hand and touched my hair, this action is addictive.
"It doesn't hurt to tell you, because the mall is lonely, but Uncle Zheng is usually taking care of it."
I seem to be able to understand what Shen Hua meant when he said that he was rich enough to rival the country.
It's me who is blind, who sees the wrong person, no, ghost.
After I went back, Shen Ming lingered with me again.
The next day, Monday, I was going to report to the school.
"Shen Ming, I'm leaving......" I was holding my luggage in one hand, and Shen Ming was reading the newspaper of the day.
"Remember, don't attract bees and butterflies to me, or you'll ......"
Shouldn't you say something warm at this time? Or a kiss goodbye, it's too disappointing.
"Got it......" I hurried away and found Shen Hua waiting for me at the door.
I haven't seen him for a few days, but I miss him a little.
"Shen Hua, are you here to find Shen Ming? He's in there. ”
Shen Hua didn't answer me immediately, but opened the car door.
"I'm not here to find the Lord, I'm here to pick you up."
"No, the school is right next to it, just two steps away."
"This is the Lord's command." Shen Ming spread his hands, indicating that he could not refuse Shen Ming's order.
I got into the passenger seat.
"Then you don't stop in front of the dormitory, just stop at the corner in front of the dormitory." When he leaned over, he happened to reveal the heart of the forest that he wore around his neck.
Shen Hua's eyes flashed, "Qingqing, the necklace around your neck is very beautiful." ”
I looked in the rearview mirror at the necklace on my collarbone, shining brighter and brighter in the sun.
"Thank you, Shen Ming sent it." I looked at the necklace twice.
"It's called the Heart of the Forest?"
"Yes."
"It's a beautiful name."
"It has a more beautiful story, do you want to hear it?"
"There is a legend in the heart of the forest that many years ago, there was a young man who was in the jade business at home, but he didn't want to live under the protection of his family, and wanted to see the rivers and lakes. So one day he left with a bag of luggage.
The people in the family only thought he was joking. After all, how can the pampered youngest son of the family endure the hardships outside, and he will come back in a few days. Unexpectedly, after two years, the boy never came back.
He went to the north, where there was a dense forest, and on the edge of the forest there was a sword-forging shop, where the boy was apprenticed.
The young man is smart and diligent, and he is deeply liked by the sword-casting boss.
He stayed for two years.
But there is another reason, only the boy himself knows. He fell in love with Boss Wang's little sister, who was gentle and delicate, and it was said that although she was a northern girl, she was not inferior to the gentle and delicate southern girl.
After a long time, the girl of the Wang family was in the store every day, and gradually developed a friendship with a young man of the same age, and begged her brother to let him leave the young man.
The young man was happy, so when Boss Wang proposed marriage, he also agreed, saying that as long as he wrote a letter to his parents, he could get married.
But when the boy wrote home, the boy's father said that after he had left home, he had hired a girl in the village, and that now the girl had been delayed for more than two years and was old, and that if he repented of the marriage, he would not be able to live with the girl.
The young man is an honest man, but also takes care of the reputation of the family, received the letter, was silent for a while, and told the shopkeeper truthfully, saying that if he does not go back, he will delay the people in vain, if he goes back, he will not have the face to come back in the future, he can't live with the shopkeeper, and he can't live with the little sister, please don't worry about her in the future.
So the boy packed his things and went back, because he was a genius at casting jade, so he carved a necklace and gave it to his little sister, named the Heart of the Forest.
After returning home, the boy married according to his parents' instructions, but later, he fell ill and died early.
However, on the day of the young man's funeral, a stranger who did not know came, she was wearing an elegant filial piety dress, and her expression was sad, but she did not come forward, only glanced at the coffin, and cried low for a while.
The young man's relatives looked strange and went over to ask for his name, but the woman refused to say, and only said softly, 'My surname is Wang'.
They noticed the pendant around her neck and asked her which master had carved it, and the lady gently stroked her necklace, took it off, and handed it to the young man's family, saying, 'This should have belonged to you.' At this point, Shen Hua's story was told and there was silence in the car for a while.
"In a traditional conservative era, people's gratuitous faith and promises, sacrificing admiration and love, burying all the unwillingness in their hearts, and spending everything in their own way, one smiling lightly in the long memories, and the other spending the rest of their lives in the long time.
Out of affection, stop at courtesy. For more than 20 years, we have met twice, once in life and once in death. "I listened to this story, my nose was a little sour, my eyes were a little swollen.
"Later, I heard that there was no news from Miss Wang after she left, and since then, people in the village will say that there is a young lady who is very affectionate, and she has never married for the sake of a young man." Shen Hua said at the end, as if sighing.
I stroked the necklace twice.
Shen Hua said with a smile, "I knew I wouldn't tell you such a poignant story, and my heart was heavy when I heard it." ”
"No, I'm impressed."
In a blink of an eye, I arrived at the school, and Shen Hua put me in the corner in front of the dormitory as agreed.
At this time, no one saw it, so I quickly said goodbye to Shen Hua and hurried to the dormitory with my luggage.
I haven't been back for more than half a month, and I always feel that the dormitory and the air are strange. When he returned to his dormitory, he found that his bed was occupied.
I was puzzled and asked, "Hello classmate, is this your bed?" ”
The girl with black-rimmed eyes gave me a strange look, "That's right." ”
"But, I used to live there." I scratched my hair embarrassedly, no, didn't I just take a week off? The school was so ruthless that it even took away my bed?
The black-eyed girl smiled shyly, "Classmate, you just came back." ”
"Well, I took a leave of absence before, and I just went back to school today."
"That's right, the school issued a notice a week ago, and the entire department has changed dormitories. You go to the housekeeper and see where your dormitory is. ”
"Thank you, sorry to interrupt." I quickly exited the room and closed the door by the way.
