(52) The same moonshine
The sun of Nanlu Island is always warm, the soft white sand of Nanlu Island is always shining, and the coconut grove and pine sea swaying slightly in the wind are like rolling green waves.
When Wen Xian has nothing to do, he likes to sit in the open-air attic and look through the thick ancient myths and beautiful legends, these are the books in Shen Xingheng's tavern, sometimes there are too many guests, and he will also help Jiang Qi in the tavern downstairs, but he will not stay too long when there are many people, so as not to be recognized by acquaintances.
"Brother Wen Xian, why are you reading again. As soon as Shen Xingheng finished taking a group of tourists, he climbed up the narrow staircase to the open-air attic, and sure enough, Wen Xian was here.
Wen Xian saw Shen Xingheng coming, so he closed the thick book, he glanced back, Shen Xingheng, who had been busy all day, still didn't feel tired at all, and couldn't help but be a little curious, "Aren't you going to rest?"
"I'm not tired," Shen Xingheng's printed shirt was given by Jiang Qicai, and it fits perfectly, "Let's go, let's go down and have a drink." β
"You drink less, your sister ......" Wen Xian paused for a moment, then remembered what he said that he shouldn't have said, he turned his head and put the book back in the box, and then followed Shen Xingheng down the stairs.
"What's wrong with my sister?Are you interested in getting to know?" Shen Xingheng didn't deliberately ask, but was just interested.
"No," Wen Xian deliberately avoided his face, "I mean your sister will be worried if you drink like this all day, because I only heard you mention your sister." β
"That's right," Shen Xingheng nodded in response to him, "Actually, I haven't seen my cousin for a long time, we haven't been in touch for a long time, and I don't know if her phone number stored in the address book is still connected." β
"Thank you. As soon as they got out of Lou, Jiang Qi brought them drinks and fruits, and Wen Xian politely thanked them and sat down.
It could be seen that Shen Xingheng seemed to be very dissatisfied with these things, and pouted and complained, "Besides, you can get me some wine, who wants to drink juice every day." β
"Hey, how many times have I told you, don't call me Qiqi, my name is Jiang Qi!" A few meters away, Jiang Qi threw a rag straight on Shen Xingheng's face, she glared at him viciously, but gloated, "You deserve it." β
"Hey, what's not to be called, isn't your brother just called you, I'm the same age as your brother. Shen Xingheng was obviously not convinced, so he took off the rag and threw it back.
Fortunately, Jiang Qi hid quickly, and the rag only fell on the bar, "You are not my brother, you really treat yourself as my sister-in-law!"
"You, I really should clean you up!" Shen Xingheng finally got tired of arguing and no longer paid attention to Jiang Qi, in fact, he was defeated, and turned around and drank the most annoying juice.
Wen Xian ate fresh dragon fruit the whole time, he had long been accustomed to the two of them being noisy and noisy like children after coming here for so many days, but he always heard them mention Jiang Qi's brother, but he had never seen it, so it was inevitable that he was a little curious, but he was not an eventful person, so he naturally didn't like to ask.
"Brother Wen Xian, let's have a barbecue at night, you must witness my unique skills when you come here!" Shen Xingheng took the juice and touched a glass with Wen Xian, which can be regarded as a drunken addiction, "Every time I barbecue, Jiang Qi drools greedily, right, Jiang Qi." β
"You don't smear me. Jiang Qi reluctantly carried a stack of cups into the back kitchen.
"Hey......" Shen Xingheng chased after him shamelessly, and urgently needed Jiang Qi to prove it to him.
Look, the two of them are boyish adults again...... Wen Xian shook his head helplessly, simply cleaned up the table and went out for a walk by himself.
The busy city will never be comfortable, and someone's wedding will finally stop after a morning, and Shen Bijun's ears will be clean, so he doesn't have to hide in the bedroom all the time.
She nestled on the big sofa in the living room, picked up her mobile phone and wanted to see if she missed Wen Xian's call, but fortunately she didn't, because Wen Xian didn't call at all.
"Hey, is it Miss Xiang?" Shen Bijun suddenly remembered that Meng Qilan had not done what he had explained, but fortunately he hadn't forgotten, "I'm a friend of Dr. Meng, and I want to rent a house for you, he should have mentioned it to you...... Not sure when you'll have time to take you to see the house. β
"It's all this afternoon, right, okay, see you at the door of Dr. Meng's community at one o'clock in the afternoon, okay bye-bye. β
The Xiang Mingle she saw was really different from the imagined Xiang Mingle, Shen Bijun thought that she would be a girl with long hair and fluttering charms, at least she should look very much like Lu Yuruan in order to capture Meng Qilan's heart.
But in front of her, Xiang Mingle already had short hair with her ears, and after she came back from Xu's house, she cut her hair again, like a tomboy, she was wearing a fleece denim jacket, and trotted in front of Shen Bijun with a faded backpack, panting so much that she almost couldn't straighten her back.
"You came here?" Shen Bijun hurriedly helped her to sit in the guard room next to her to rest.
"I'm sorry, I'm ten minutes late. Xiang Mingle gasped, holding the table with his hands, fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, "Miss Shen has been waiting for a long time." β
"I'm fine, I don't have anything to do anyway, I just met my old neighbor and chatted a little more, but it's you, your university is far away from here, why did you come here?" Shen Bijun took a cup and gave her a glass of water from the water dispenser.
After thanking Mingle, he explained that he had missed the bus, and Shen Bijun thought that she must be reluctant to spend money on a taxi, so he didn't ask much, and took her upstairs to see the house after a short rest.
When Shen Bijun bought this place back then, he was introduced by a senior who was an intermediary, saying that the environment here is very good, very safe, especially suitable for women to live alone, and after living here for so many years, Shen Bijun also confirmed that the senior is reliable, not to mention that Meng Qilan still lives upstairs, what is she worried about?
After reading the room, Xiang Mingle took the initiative to mention that he wanted to invite Shen Bijun to drink coffee and chat, and Shen Bijun liked Xiang Mingle's politeness and gentleness, so there was no reason to refuse, and followed her to Xin Yu's coffee shop. Coincidentally, this coffee shop Meng Lianxi also recommended it to her.
"Miss Xiang often comes here too?" Shen Bijun asked for a cup of Mocha and sat in his place and looked around.
"Just call me Mingle. Xiang Mingle only asked for a glass of white water, "This is my good friend's shop." β
"Your name is Xiang Mingle?" Shen Bijun couldn't help but feel a little funny, "I always thought that the music word in your name was the same as happy music, but it turned out to be the music of music." β
"My original name was Xiang Mingyue, the moon of the moon, I didn't like it, so I changed it myself. She took a sip of water, a little embarrassed, "Because the origin of the name is 'I was going to be to the bright moon', I always feel that the meaning is a little bad." It doesn't really matter what sound you pronounce after changing it. β
"I also have a ten-year-old sister named Xiang Mingguang, her name was chosen by me, I just hope that Xiaoguang will always be towards the light, not like me, always in the endless darkness. Regarding the name, it was the first time for Xiang Mingle to say so much to others, and she didn't know how she didn't have any boundaries in front of Shen Bijun, she obviously never said this to others, seeing that Shen Bijun listened so devotedly, she smiled a little apologetically, "I'm sorry, Miss Shen, I'm a little far away." β
"No, I love hearing that. Shen Bijun knew that she couldn't let go, and finally let go and was afraid of other people's eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed, she picked up the coffee cup, didn't drink it, and put it down again.
"Actually, my name is more casual, my mother is about to give birth to me and go shopping with friends, I suddenly have a stomachache and then sent to the hospital to give birth to me, my dad was still reading novels at home, my friend called him to inform him that my mother gave birth to a daughter, and he gave me the name by the way, which is the name of Shen Bijun, the heroine of "Xiao Shiyi Lang" that he is reading, "Shen Bijun is a little self-deprecating, what she remembers most clearly about the past is the origin of her name, "Do you think I'm more miserable, fortunately he didn't watch "The Condor Heroes" at that time Ah, otherwise, I don't know if I'm called Shen Xiaolongnu. β
Xiang Mingle was finally amused by Shen Bijun, it was the first time Shen Bijun had seen her smile so heartily along the way, such a bright smile was what a girl of this age should have.
"By the way, Miss Shen, if you rent me such a good house for 1,000 yuan a month, is it a loss, or is it that Dr. Meng has helped?" Xiang Mingle always minded what role Meng Qilan played in this transaction, and Shen Bijun could see that her expectant eyes revealed that she hoped that Meng Qilan would help, but also didn't want Meng Qilan to really help her.
Shen Bijun took out the tissue that Meng Qilan had left the phone before from his bag, and handed it to Xiang Mingle, "It's just that I happened to be looking for a resident, and Dr. Meng introduced you, as for 1000 a month, I don't care, it's empty anyway, it's a waste, and I don't feel a loss if I'm so close to you." β
"Thank you. β
Xiang Mingle was sincere, and she could see that the people outside, except for Meng Qilan, the one she trusted the most was Shen Bijun, who she had met.
When she was separated from Xiang Mingle, it was almost evening, she looked down at her phone, it was already past five o'clock, no wonder, it was winter with short days and long nights. She sniffed a little coldly, paid attention to a men's clothing store next to her, gave up again, turned around and left, she was also very annoyed, how did she suddenly forget Wen Xian's size.
The barbecue skill in Shen Xingheng's mouth really did not disappoint, since the sun set, he has been in a lot of hands, and now the moon is hanging overhead, and even the fire is not burning......
Wen Xian naturally didn't have much expectations from the beginning, and he didn't have much interest in barbecue, so he went back to the tavern by moonlight.
The tavern was empty, and the guests all went to join in the excitement of the barbecue, and even Jiang Qi, who was reluctant at first, also went. Wen Xian went to the bar to mix a glass of wine, which he had learned from Lin Yi before, and after he finished it, he climbed to the attic alone to bask in the moonlight.
The mobile phone that has not been used for so long is not proficient in using it. He endured it for a long time, and as if he had finally made up his mind, he dialed a familiar number.
"Hey, why don't you sleep yet......"
The voice on the other end of the phone ...... Wen Xian almost took a lot of effort to restrain himself from trembling, and it sounded calm and unwavering, as if they hadn't seen each other for a day.
Wen Xian's heart tightened, but he hadn't heard this voice for a long time, "It's me." β
"How are you, have you eaten and dressed well outside, are you used to the weather, have you brought enough clothes...... Although Shen Bijun controlled it well, in fact, as soon as Wen Xian opened her mouth, her tears had already broken the embankment.
Her trembling crying made Wen Xian so distressed that he didn't dare to speak again, he was silent for a long time, and he kept listening to her broken thoughts, and he didn't interrupt her, because just hearing her voice was so satisfying.
"Is there anyone there to accompany you, are you bored?"
"There's a lot of people here, and a nice big boy and his friends, they're all very nice. Wen Xian is full of praise for Shen Xingheng, but she still has to keep a sense of mystery like Shen Bijun, and when she goes back one day, she will tell her that this is her brother, and she will be very happy at that time.
Shen Bijun took a deep breath nervously, hesitated for a long time, and still couldn't help asking, "You... When will you be back?"
"Let's go back in a whileβ" He hadn't decided whether to go back or not, and wouldn't it be too unworthy if he hurt her if he went back now.
"It's going to be the New Year," Shen Bijun was sure that he would come back, so he was much more relieved, and he was even more happy, "When the time comes, my mother will also come over to celebrate the New Year with us, it will be very lively, right?"
"Hmm. β
"Then you come back early, I'll wait for you." β
"Shen Bijun ......"
"Huh?"
"I'm sorry," Wen Xian looked at the sky full of clear light, wondering if Shen Bijun was the same as what he saw?" "I'm sorry for worrying you." β
It should be the same, the same sky should see the same moonlight, right...... The same love, can she understand?
