Chapter 9 The Parting Station
The day of parting has finally come. Came to Ling Shan's house early in the morning to see you off, Ling Shan said, I asked Siqin to watch you at home, and you are not allowed to have any bad intentions.
I don't know if I'm happy or if I should laugh at myself. That is, separation is separation, and leaving such words makes me feel embarrassed!
I don't know if it's the sourness in my heart, or the injustice of my fate, or my own arrangements in the dark! All in all, what should come will come, and the only thing to face is to suffer silently.
Ling Shan, who is unwilling, is alone, and so am I. I still remember that a few days ago, Ling Shan told me a story about a boiled duck flying, and it turned out that the hero of the story turned out to be herself. At any time, I thought about it at the beginning, but I was still reluctant to face it.
My shoelaces are a little broken, I don't even have a pair of shoes for such a long way, Ling Shan said to me.
Wait, I'll buy you a pair of shoes! It was a hot summer day, and the further I went northwest, the more dry it became, so I went straight to the store east of the supply and marketing cooperative, knowing that there were sandals sold there. You don't have to run around on the train, and you don't get tired in sandals.
Get me a pair of sandals on size 35, I said, pointing to a pair of pink sandals on the shelf. How much?
Oh! Well, yes. 35 yuan a pair. The salesperson is a middle-aged woman, named Shuangmei, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. In a town with a small population, everyone is almost always an acquaintance. Shuangmei went to the bottom of the shelves to find shoes and said: Who is this for!
A friend, I won't talk much about it when I'm in a hurry, let's talk about it another day when I have time! I'm going to take the shoes and give them away! Buy and wear now. As he spoke, he found the change, which was just enough, so there was no need to look for it. Thank you!
Come on, this pair! Shuangmei handed over the sandals and said: No. 35, do you see the size of the line?
I'll take it and try it, I'll look at the size of it, and if it doesn't work, I'll come back to you to change it. After taking my shoes, I walked out of the store and went to find Ling Shan.
At this time, Ling Shan was sorting out her bags with her eldest sister and second sister and tying them to the bicycle. There is also a distance to the train station.
I took the sandals and handed them to Ling Shan and said, "You try it, if it's suitable, wear it and go!" Put those shoes in your bag!
Ling Shan took the shoes, then took off the pair of shoes with broken laces on her feet, put them on, the size, width and thinness were suitable, so the other shoe also took off, put on sandals and stomped on the ground twice. Say: You're pretty good at buying it.
Didn't I ask you! You told me that you were wearing size 35 shoes, and I bought them accordingly. Like this color?
Pretty good! You feel sorry for me. Ling Shan said with a wry smile.
At this point, that's all I can do, and I don't know if I can - whether I will have a chance to see you again. I looked at Ling Shan affectionately.
Ling Shan immediately covered my mouth and said, "Don't say it, the more you are afraid of what happens, the more you mention and think about it, it will really happen, I don't allow you to say that."
Chu Xiao said: Okay, you can go, I will build a house here as soon as possible, and if there is a suitable buyer, I will sell it directly! Everything is packed.
Everyone's face was solemn, but they made themselves look like they didn't care, even me. After all, I don't know how many years before we can see each other again. Everyone has an abacus in their hearts, thinking about their own life and future, and selfishness may be the greatest common characteristic of human beings. But I didn't fight for my own interests at all, and I didn't want others to see my vulnerability.
Pretending to be strong and indifferent, when I saw Ling Shan looking at me like a tearful person through the glass window of the train, the tears could no longer be suppressed. Afraid that Ling Shan would increase her pain when she saw it, she closed her eyes and turned her face to the side. Pray silently in my heart that my loved ones will have a safe journey!
I didn't know who Ling Shan's tears were for. Is it the last rain to bury our future, or is it to pay tribute to every day and night of acquaintance. Or for the helplessness and confusion in my heart. Let's have both a vision for the future and an uncertain future.
Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory. But when there is a turning point and a new dawn in the future, there will be deviations to change this beautiful world. Let it be mutilated and scarred. But they have to face this complexity.
I thought that I would never see each other again, I thought it was over, and the heart that was unwilling to be lonely wandered from now on, and I had said goodbye to the past.
It is only when people are separated that they know that every ordinary day in the past is precious. Even if it has nothing to do with happiness, it's just a simple look at each other. I don't know the preciousness of life until I die. When you don't get seriously ill, you can't realize that health is the greatest joy!
Platform
Look at your back
Far from the city
But they can't get out of my sight
In every memory
You've got you
Sneaking in countless starry days
wander
The hurried back is like a dream
All that's left is the empty platform and the lonely me
With an elongated figure
Suddenly, he hung his head
The roar of the train faded away
until it disappears
Tears blurred the vision
The elongated steam then slowly drifted into the air
Everything came to mind so clearly
Long carriages
Carry colorful dreams
And the long whistle faded away
Only two parallel lines that never intersect stretch behind him
The shadow of loneliness is with me
