When I was a child, I didn't understand why Bai Juyi remembered Jiangnan? There are so many beautiful scenery in the world, why is a Jiangnan worth nostalgia? Later, after arriving in Jiangnan, I understood the sentence "can I remember Jiangnan".

When I arrived in Jiangtouzhou on the first day, the damp cold air couldn't help but make me retreat, and I had the idea of going home. "The enthusiasm and the blankets sent by the owner after going downstairs.

Seeing that I was packing up my things and leaving, the boss said with some regret, "It's a good time to wait for the rain to pass and the sky is clear, do you really not stay for a while?" ”

After listening to what the boss said, I decided to take out a slightly thicker dress from the suitcase and return: "Then stay, and let myself remember Jiangnan in the future."

When I'm done, I'm going to go out for a walk and see this mysterious ancient city.

Before leaving, the proprietress told me, "I must hike to the Gantang River to experience the sailing boat of the old Motou." At first, I only thought it was beautiful, but when I got there, I found that it was so extraordinary.

Jiangtouzhou not only has the scenery I want, but also brings me a beautiful story.

I thought that the owner of the riverbank ferry should be an elderly man, but when I arrived, I found out that it was a young couple. Maybe they also saw my doubts, but the young and beautiful girl came first: "It's here to find the full, right?"

I couldn't understand the dialect for a while, and I couldn't answer anything, so I could only say that I came to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

When I stepped on the sailboat to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the river, an old man slowly approached the shore and motioned for the couple to get off the boat.

The old man tidied up his coat, buttoned up his hat, raised his sail and said, "Next time, next time, next time."

The young man helped push the boat a little hard, "Full, next time say okay, let's come"

The old man may have seen that I was a little nervous, and said while rowing, "Girl, don't worry, my old Mo oars are safer than those two fierce calves, they row, you should be really nervous"

"It's not that I'm afraid, uncle, I'm a little excited, I feel the lonely shadow of the cold river for the first time", in fact, my mouth is hard, and I feel the shaking of the boat for the first time, and I am really a little nervous.

The old man saw through me at a glance, "You girl is interesting, aren't you here to play?" ”

I'm still a little surprised, I did come to collect stories, but I didn't show it very gloomy, and I didn't bring any equipment to the river today.

"How did you guess that? Uncle"

The old man pressed the brim of his hat and said proudly, "You girl, you dare to take a sailboat for the first time you come here, and you are alone, and you don't ask the price, you don't look like people come out to play at all."

I told the old man about my work, and the old man was obviously silent, he didn't talk as much as before, and the whole scene was obviously very difficult, and the old man muttered at the parting time, "Will many people see this magazine?" Will a lot of them be seen? ”

I thought about it and exaggerated a little back to "most people will see it because we are really famous, but it is not excluded that there are definitely people who can't see it." ”

Back at the B&B, I suddenly recalled my uncle's words, and I chased after him without waiting for my ass to get into bed. My intuition tells me that the old man has a story, and it is not a very simple story.

I panted and asked, "Uncle, do you have anything to say?" My job is to tell a story, and you can tell it. ”

The old man shook his head stupidly, tightened the straw hat rope on his chest, tightened his coat again, waved his hand, and signaled goodbye.

I looked at his lost and confused background, I suddenly felt very annoying, to uncover the sore spots of others and seemed to be undead to sprinkle a handful of salt, telling myself in the bottom of my heart to forget it, when I turned to leave, there was a shout behind me.

Looking back at the young girl with a sailboat at the entrance of the alley, I leaned in and asked, "Are you calling me?" ”

She ran over with great interest, looked at me and asked, "What the hell are you doing?" Why was Man Man so lost just now? ”

I apologized with some guilt, and wanted to say goodbye with some regret, hoping that she could convey my apology, and when she said, "If it is really possible, even if it is to help the heart knot open." ”

She said, "Man Man had a lover when he was young, but at that time he was not allowed to fall in love freely, Man Man was separated from his lover, he kept thinking about that aunt's, Man Man is waiting now, I heard Ah Gong say that the aunt said that she would come back"

I don't know what to respond, it's me who selfishly touched the old man's taboo and spied on the secret that shouldn't be snooped on, at that moment I was like being Ling Chi, maybe the girl looked at me for a long time and didn't speak, and said while running, "Come to Jiangtou again on a cloudy day, don't want money, I'll let Man Man tell you"

The figure disappeared around the corner and could still hear a sentence "You must come, don't miss the appointment, even if you pretend to be full of help, you must come"

When I returned to my residence, I sat by the window on the first floor with my head bowed and felt the loneliness of belonging to this ancient city with guilt, the proprietress seemed to see through my heart, and patted my back softly and said, "Lao Mo has been looking for it all these years, you are not the first, and you will not be the last, there is no guilt, even if you listen to it"

I'm actually just waiting for an outlet to get rid of the so-called guilt, and I know I'll go again on a cloudy day.

For the first time, the night felt so long for me, and my heart sprouted because I wanted to hear what was a poignant story.

The next day, I came to the head of the river as promised, surrounded by mist in the early morning, birds chatting in the trees, fish rippling in the water, and sometimes rowing through the river to carry tourists forward.

When I was enjoying the beautiful scenery, the old man came over, no longer wearing yesterday, the green coat was replaced by a long-sleeved sweater, and the straw hat was replaced by thick white hair.

I was a little surprised, and the old man sat next to me and said, "When I saw her. She also has this expression, and Wanwan told me yesterday."

Before I could speak, the old man said, "Actually, it's best to help me, if you can't help me, you should listen to my old man's story." ”

The old man's original name was Mo Qing, the son of the most famous boatman in the ten miles and eight townships of Jiangtouzhou, and he was also handsome, and the girl he liked was a female student who came here to teach, in the era of arranged marriage, the two of them had feelings for each other, and the young men in the village said that Mo Qing had climbed high, didn't they know that it was the female student who confessed first, and Mo Qing went around telling people that he chased her in order to maintain the face of the female student.

The good times didn't last long, this matter reached Mo's father's ears, how could traditional education tolerate such a thing, so he was engaged, the female student ate foreign ink, and came to the door to reason with Mo's father, but where can the thinking change, Mo's father became angry, although Mo Qing said that he was open-minded, he was still traditional in his bones, and agreed to the engagement.

The female student broke up in a fit of anger, and then Mo Qing didn't really get engaged, everyone knew that the female student went to his house to theorize, who would dare to marry such a family, even if she was handsome, even if the Mo family could endure hardships and live a good life, there was a female student who would not dare to marry, for fear that the female student would make trouble again, and this time it was just as Mo Qing's wish.

After a long time, when Mo's father relented and talked about marriage, the female student's family locked her at home, Mo Qing went to the city every once in a while to beg, went to the door of the house, and saw no one, and finally the maid came out to spread the word to Mo Qing and others, saying that her young lady would definitely go back.

The old man said that his voice was a little violent, and he scratched his head and said, "At such an old age, it makes you laugh."

I shook my head and said, "Uncle, the beautiful woman has a return date, may you get your wish"

As a result, Mo Qing grew from a young boatman to an old man, from rowing with his father to taking over his father's oars, from Wanwan's father's younger brother to Wanwan's uncle, and he never saw a female student.

After speaking, the old man patted the dust under his body, and boarded his line of Jiangmu Fan, "Girl, come, come up, I will take you to the real Jiangzhong for the last time"

I'm slightly puzzled.

The old man craned his shoulders, held the oars and said, "The next time I come, Wanwan and her husband will take you, I, I'm old, old." ”

I know that it's not the body or the heart that is old, it's the energy that probably lets go, and probably can't let go.

Back to the magazine, I hurriedly published a notice in the newspaper to find someone, and I fantasized countless times about the return date of the beautiful woman, and the flowers bloomed on the moon, living up to the scene of the king.

Soon after, I received an email from overseas.

“Thank you for letting my grandmother receive what she has missed for a long time in her lifetime. If it is convenient， I hope you can help me contact me. I will take my grandmother back to visit her former lover”

I don't know whether to be happy, sad or regretful, and I don't know whether to tell Uncle Mo that his beautiful woman is married, but he has not forgotten him, and he is not worthy of him.

After struggling for a while, I told Wanwan the news, Wanwan was different from me, she was very excited, she said, "I must be happy to know that she is still alive and still thinking about him, thank you so much."

Perhaps, the negative monarch does not live up to the monarch, the beautiful woman still has a return date, and the monarch is not looking forward to the emptiness.
