Chapter 2 The First Meeting on the Shore of Shuiyue Lake (2)
When I got home, it was already twilight.
She unlocked the door with the key, pushed open the wooden door, and walked inside.
At this moment, what catches my eye is a messy yard. Firewood was thrown everywhere, pots and pans were not cleaned up, and even clothes were scattered on the floor.
The pale twilight shrouded the dilapidated courtyard of the Song family, looking at the heavy sky, looking at the dilapidated courtyard, and being reprimanded by Song Daquan just now, Song Qinglian's heart actually gave birth to a sense of loneliness that was difficult to control.
This kind of life alone has become a habit, but in this situation, alone in the empty courtyard at night, she has a sense of loneliness abandoned by the whole world.
She leaned feebly against the wall, looking at the messy courtyard, tears involuntarily sliding down the corners of her eyes. Most girls of her age are in the favor of their parents, but she has never been favored by her parents, how can she not be a little sad.
Tears flowed out, and her heart felt better, and she no longer felt so depressed. You can't let yourself fall into this senseless sentimentality all the time, and get in the way of business.
She wiped the tears from her face, looked at the sky and took a deep breath, pressed her sadness into her heart, left the wall, stood up straight, and cleaned the room by herself.
"Bang bang bang!"
She had just ordered a bowl of oily noodles, and the noodles were not yet cooked, when she heard a knock on the door, she stood up and walked to the door: "Who is it?" ”
"Qinglian, it's me."
"Eh, Brother Cheng, it's you!" Listening to the voice, she knew that the person who knocked on the door was Lin Acheng from the neighbor's house, and she opened the door.
Lin Acheng cautiously poked into the courtyard of Song Qinglian's house, and asked cautiously, "Qinglian, your father and mother shouldn't be at home, right?" ”
Song Qinglian nodded: "No, they won't come back tonight." ”
"That's good." Lin Acheng seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and presented the fruit basket to Song Qinglian, "I went to the mountains today to pick some wild fruits, and I didn't come back just now, so I thought I would send you some." ”
"While your father and mother are away, put it away quickly, if they find out that you have accepted what I gave, I am afraid they will reprimand you again."
Lin Acheng was willing to think of herself like this, she was naturally grateful in her heart, she didn't push back, took the fruit basket and thanked him, "Brother Acheng, you have a heart, thank you." ”
Today, her parents were not there, and it happened that Lin Acheng came again, so she took the initiative to invite Lin Acheng: "Brother Acheng, the oily noodles I cooked are not good yet, you can stay and eat together." ”
"It's okay, I'm a little hungry." Lin Acheng heartily agreed, "Since Qinglian personally cooked, then Ah Cheng and I might as well be respectful." ”
The two of them were eating oily noodles together under the light of the lamplight. With friends by your side, you don't feel so lonely and sad.
But while eating, she couldn't help but think of everything that happened in the smoke house. Thinking of his father's unscrupulous reprimand for him, as well as his appearance of smoking a cigarette pouch drunk and dreaming of death, there will be bursts of discomfort in my heart.
Throughout the dinner, she had been absent-minded, and she had no appetite for oily noodles, and she didn't say a word, her brows were tightly locked, and her sad look was obvious.
Lin Acheng noticed the strangeness of her expression: "Qinglian, why are you absent-minded, what are you thinking?" ”
"Huh?" Song Qinglian was stunned for a moment, then retracted her thoughts, and just said in an ordinary way: "Oh, it's nothing." ”
Lin Acheng could see that her eyes were slightly red, and she must have cried just now.
As a neighbor, he knew the situation of her family very well, and although she didn't say it, he could roughly guess what she was worried about.
But those are all private matters in her family, and he is not good to ask.
His mind struck a flash of thought that would distract her and relieve her worries.
"Hey, Qinglian, do you know? In a few days, Minghui Hall will perform on Baishan Road, and I heard that it is still the home of Xuan Gongzi. ”
"Minghuitang?" Song Qinglian raised her eyes: "Is that the quyi team that ran all over the capital?" ”
"That's right." Lin Acheng nodded: "This time I heard that it is the home of the famous Xuan Gongzi, and his great fame is generally disdainful of performing in this small street and alley, but this time, I don't know why, he will come." ”
"This time the art performance, it should be not small, with Xuan Gongzi here, it is estimated that there will be a lot of spectators!"
A trace of curiosity appeared in Song Qinglian's eyes, "Is it the singer who became popular in the capital at the age of fifteen, Xuan Gongzi Ming Jingxuan?" He has never liked to perform in public, how could he come? ”
"Yes, yes, that's him." Seeing that Song Qinglian was interested, Lin Acheng further enticed: "He is so famous, many people can't invite him, this time no one thought that he would come to the home performance, but it is really intriguing." ”
"It's rare to have such an opportunity, why don't you call your sister Shuangshuang tomorrow, let's go and have a look together."
Song Qinglian's eyes moved: "There are many people in the capital who like to watch him perform, so in this way, Minghuitang's art performance is really not small." Just now we were selling sachets on Baishan Road, and I told Shuangshuang tomorrow that we would go together when the time came. ”
"That's great!" Seeing her agree, Lin Acheng laughed: "After a few days, I will wait for you on Baishan Road." ”
The breeze blew on the face, raising the blue waves of a river, gently rippling the turquoise ripples.
The early morning sun is slightly revealed from the sky, sprinkled on the dew condensed on the willow branches in the early morning, revealing a dazzling light.
Spring is slightly warm, and this day is a rare sunny day.
The stage next to Shuiyue Lake has been set up, and there are many visitors around, and they are all waiting here when they hear about the performance of Master Xuan. Song Qinglian and Lu Shuangshuang, and Lin Acheng also stood here.
