Chapter 386: Reluctance (Third Update)
Thinking that he was about to leave Nanjing, Ye Chunqiu actually had a lot of things to say to Wang Jingchu, but when he looked at the pretty face with a smile in front of him, he felt a slight touch of understanding in his heart, and seemed unwilling to break this quiet.
After half a ring, Ye Chunqiu finally said, "Oh, what has Miss Jingchu been doing at home lately?" ”
Wang Jingchu looked at her with a stupid look just now, but he thought it was very interesting in his heart, and he thought that this idiot would never speak.
Wang Jingchu smiled, a somewhat reserved flush appeared on his face, and said, "Just read and be a female celebrity." ”
Ye Chunqiu smiled dumbly, this topic didn't seem to be nutritious, so he said again: "I'm going to leave tomorrow, and when I get to Jingshi, I'll send you something." ”
The flush on Wang Jingchu's pretty face faded slightly, he raised his eyes to look at Ye Chunqiu, and said with a smile: "Ah, what to send?" ”
Ye Chunqiu thought for a while and said: "Presumably ordinary things, you are not rare, just send some calligraphy and paintings, well, I made it myself." ”
Wang Jingchu thought it was funny, but he nodded busily: "Well, I see that your writing has grown again, but this line of calligraphy and painting can only entertain yourself, you go to Jingshi, the most important thing is to take care of yourself, Jingshi is colder than Nanjing, I have lived there for a few years, I need to prepare more jackets, and ...... Go there to be an official, if you can live in Hanlin, you have to go to the courtyard early in the morning to order, but also to enter the palace to wait for the edict, add more clothes, eat enough to go, at noon, the palace can not care, only allow you to eat some refreshments, you have a big appetite, I am afraid that it will not be able to bear. ”
Ye Chunqiu thought in his heart, if he can enter Hanlin, it means that he can be among the best in the palace test, and he wants to come...... It also depends on luck, but he cheered up: "I remember, you should also pay attention to your body in Nanjing, don't suffer from heat stroke, well, I'll send some medicine to escape the heat in a few days, uh......"
"What ......" Seeing Ye Chunqiu slurching, Wang Jingchu looked at Ye Chunqiu with his eyes open and encouraged Ye Chunqiu to continue.
Ye Chunqiu said: "I carefully inquired about the tone of my teacher and my wife, although they said that there is always something expedient, but I am leaving, but I don't know how to be expedient, cough cough...... I didn't mean to urge marriage, I just asked, after all, if I go to Beijing, it will be difficult to return to my hometown and relatives. ”
Wang Jingchu thought that she would be shy, but she was amused by Ye Chunqiu's words, showed a knowing smile, and said with a smile: "This...... I don't know...... But...... There is always expediency. ”
Ye Chunqiu was stunned, and suddenly felt a little less restrained, as if he had known Wang Jingchu for a long time, but thinking that Wang Jingchu had received a good upbringing since he was a child, he still didn't get too close, just looked at Wang Jingchu intently, hoping that he would always remember this smiling face at this time.
Wang Jingchu did not avoid Ye Chunqiu's gaze, the smile on his face was still there, and he said softly: "When are you leaving tomorrow morning?" ”
Ye Chunqiu also said with a light smile: "I have to set off at the end of the day, and I will take a boat, so it should be sooner rather than later." ”
Wang Jingchu smiled and nodded, "When you arrive at your residence, remember to send a letter." I ......"
As he was talking, he saw Mrs. Wang come in with a small burden, so when he talked about it, Ye Chunqiu got up and saluted Mrs. Wang: "Master, ......"
Mrs. Wang handed her ambition to Ye Chunqiu: "It's all some things embroidered by me and Jing Chu, it's not well embroidered, you can take it." ”
Ye Chunqiu wanted to thank him again, Mrs. Wang took a deep look at Wang Jingchu, then looked at Ye Chunqiu, and said, "You don't need to thank you, after all, it's still a family." ”
Ye Chunqiu only said yes, seeing that it was difficult to have the opportunity to contact Wang Jingchu, he looked at her again, and saw that she also looked at herself reluctantly.
Ye Chunqiu finally withdrew his gaze, and finally said, "The student has to go back to pack his luggage and say goodbye." ”
Thinking silently in his heart, they would definitely meet again soon, but the dignified and smiling face was in his heart, and it didn't disperse for a long time......
………………
At the dawn, Ye Chunqiu set off with his bags on his back, no one saw him off, just followed Ye Jing, and under the stars and moon, he arrived at the dock.
All the people who came to see them off blocked the car, and they didn't even tell anyone the specific time of their trip, because they just didn't want to add to their sadness.
The wharf leading to Caoyun is a straight official road, it is still early at this time, the dark blue brick road extends at the foot, and you can see the huge ship docked in the distance, the huge hull only shows the outline, but there is a faint light, Ye Chunqiu looked at the direction of the light, stepping on this bluestone road, his eyes are bright, starting from here, he will go to the distant future, from then on, he is no longer an ordinary people, and it has really changed.
Well, a new life is about to begin, although there is some reluctance and unforgettable for the past, but now the bottom of my heart is more about the vision of the future.
As the teacher said, when I boarded the ship, I said goodbye to yesterday's self completely, and what awaited me was tomorrow's me.
What will tomorrow look like?
On both sides of the road, there are mostly some low sheds, mainly temporary accommodation for boatmen and porters, and the smell here is ...... Some unpleasant smell, along the way the shadow of the trees, hanging on the trees a lot of clothes to dry, most of them are made of coarse linen, at this time, there are already people getting up early, such an early morning, occasionally the sound of dogs barking and chickens crowing, and even some early risers have lit the smoke.
But everything is not too good, because Ye Chunqiu smells the most is the smell of fish, this is the outer city, and the inner city officials and nobles are said to be separated by a thick city wall, he even saw that under this faint light, there is a bamboo shed, a thin body is struggling to draw water in the patio, this is an unkempt girl, when Ye Chunqiu and his son walked by, her eyes were even so stingy that she refused to look at the pedestrians on the road, as if her life was only the patio and a bunch of clothes around her that urgently needed to be washed, and the patio was her world, It's sad and helpless.
Compared to her, Ye Chunqiu is undoubtedly lucky, he has begun to have the leisure to really look at the world and analyze the situation of everyone here, so he has compassion and thinking about this era, and he is reluctant to miss the girl.
What are the ideals and aspirations? This is obviously the problem that he should be thinking about now, the girl's clumsy and ragged figure appeared in his mind, this image is by no means as half of the dream of the Red Chamber said, the beauty of women is made of water. Even extremely ugly, so ugly that Ye Chunqiu didn't dare to look at it too much, he followed behind Ye Jing like a little follower, but his heart was full of pity.
