In the early morning of this day, that is, in the early morning of May 28, still in a beautiful bamboo forest in the north of Jiangyang Town, Ye Wuwu was shaking hands with his beloved Shi Xiaomei to say goodbye. Beside them, the cute little black donkey was happily wagging its tail and kissing the green grass by the stream. From time to time, it also watched the man's dynamics, and cut out two rows of white teeth at him, as if a particularly naughty little guy was waiting for the master's progress at any time!

At this time, I only heard Ye ask with concern: "Xiaomei (sister)!" I've been around you for more than a month, what are you going to do at home? ”

"I will cherish myself even more without you! Cherish myself for you! And I'll be counting your itinerary and counting the days at home! Shi Xiaomei turned her big watery eyes and replied angrily.

"That's not good!" Ye said harmlessly but a little angrily, "I don't want you to live in a miserable life, wait in a miserable way!" ”

"Nope! That's what I'm going to do! Shi Xiaomei still said sweetly, "You can arrive in the capital in nine days, and then you can study in the city for more than 20 days!" On the 7th of July, the day of the Tangram Festival, you start taking the exam. And then you can return it in nine days! It's better to do it as soon as possible! A few days before the 15th day of July, I will be here every day to wait for you! ”

Ye Wuwu listened to Shi Xiaomei's words, and said with a flash of surprise: "It turns out that you have already calculated the date of the trip for me!" You're amazing! ”

After Shi Xiaomei heard this, she said nonchalantly: "It's you who is amazing, not me!" You can travel far away and go to Beijing to take the exam, but I, a woman, can't go to Beijing to take the exam, so I can only stay at home. ”

"Xiaomei! You stay at home and don't go anywhere. Jereno comforted her and said, "It's not too early, you stay here, I should go on my way!" ”

"I'll give you another ride, can't you," Shi Xiaomei finally asked with a melancholy face.

"Xiaomei (sister)!" Ye harmless then comforted, "A thousand words, ten miles away, there will be a farewell!" Besides, you and I are not separated from life and death, so why do we have to wait until we cry to say goodbye, can't we be happier? ”

At this time, Shi Xiaomei simply stopped and said slowly: "Seriously! I can't wait to go to the capital with you! Why are you men only allowed to take the exam in Beijing, but not us women? What I learned from Mr. Cao can only be stuffed in my heart and cannot be implemented. I really hate the unfairness of this world, the preference for sons, why can't we women have the same rights as you men! Why can't I go to the capital and let me stay in the boudoir alone? I really want to be a firebird and fly high! Just like you, be a free-spirited wanderer. ”

Shi Xiaomei said, and couldn't help but look up at the clear sky - there was a floating white cloud in the light blue sky, which made her reverie. Floating clouds and wandering children, the sunset is old. Waving his hand, Xiao Xiao Ban Ma Ming.

At this time, Ye walked behind Shi Xiaomei silently, stroked her shoulders with both hands, and said softly, "I understand your feelings!" You are a lively, intelligent and emotional girl! You don't want to have a dull life, you want to use your ingenuity and try to repay the loss! I would love to support you and protect you! ”

"But how can you support me?" Shi Xiaomei asked motionlessly.

Ye harmless heard the question, and immediately smiled! He shook Shi Xiaomei's shoulder and said, "Let's say this time!" You can disguise yourself as a man and come to Beijing with me! ”

This sentence obviously aroused Shi Xiaomei's interest. She couldn't help but turn her head in surprise and said, "Oops! Wonderful! Why didn't you say it earlier? ”

At this time, Ye Wuwu was also happy that he had aroused Shi Xiaomei's interest, and he finally saw her beautiful and bright smile that he had not seen for a long time. Then he said loudly: "There is a precedent for this, and now it is completely possible to follow suit!" You don't have to hesitate to break through the family's control over you and find your own world. ”

However, Ye Wuwu categorically did not expect that after he said these words, Shi Xiaomei did not have the happy voice and smile just now, and her face was already full of sorrow.

"What's wrong? Xiaomei (sister)! Are you upset again? "yes, it's harmless, it's embarrassing.

Shi Xiaomei shook her head and said, "This can only be said, it is difficult to achieve!" Now that I am at home and obey my parents, how dare I make my own decisions? Besides, I think that a woman pretending to be a man is just a compromise! Still can't change the status of our women. If we do, let's do it in the open, so why be sneaky? ”

Ye Wuwu heard Shi Xiaomei's inner words, and secretly felt a little ashamed to stand in front of her. He didn't feel any taller than her, but even shorter than her. He knew very well that with their personal sharp words, how could they change the concept of "preference for sons over daughters" for thousands of years, how could they transcend the reckless troubles of this patriarchal ritual religion, and how could they allow all men and women to move forward hand in hand? He felt slim, at least for now! However, Yah's harmless heart churned violently at this moment, fantasizing...... He fantasized that one day he would become the prime minister of the whole country, and he would change this traditional worldliness and change this hateful "patriarchy"! But this seems to be a passing "Handan dream", what is the difference between it and "Nanke's dream"?

Thinking of this, Ye Wuwu couldn't help but say resentfully: "Women, there will always be a day when they will come out!" Xiaomei (sister)! You are waiting for me, I will definitely relieve the worries in your heart, I will definitely change the status of women, and I will never let women be oppressed again! ”

"You?! Await? …… How long will it take? Shi Xiaomei asked in surprise.

At this time, Ye Wuwu's eyes turned blue, and he said heavily: "Ten years, eight years, maybe eighteen years, not much!" ”

"Huh?! Decade? That's not much? Shi Xiaomei said anxiously, "There are three hundred and sixty-five days in a year, and these ten years are forty seasons, three thousand six hundred and fifty days and nights, and I will be a twenty-seven-year-old woman by then!" Can you keep me waiting? ”

"You can wait!" Ye said solemnly, "Maybe I'm not saying much. If you want to get rid of the lowly position of women in the world, these ten years, these eighteen years, are far from enough! ”

"That's right! You want to change the status of more women in the world! Shi Xiaomei suddenly realized and asked, "Then what can I do?" ”

Ye harmless listened, thought for a while and said: "You are still young, you should continue to study quietly at home, inherit the essence of your predecessors, and then develop and innovate yourself, so that you can achieve something in all aspects and become a talented woman in middle school!" Not only you, but you should also wake up more women to learn, and start now! ”

"From now?" Shi Xiaomei seemed to look at Ye harmless with a little confusion and asked.

"That's right! Right now! Ye said in a resolute tone, "You and I will be separated temporarily, and when I come back from the exam, I will see how many talented women you can recruit?" See what you did that was meaningful. ”

"Ahh You're trying for me to organize a girls' club! Shi Xiaomei couldn't help but say happily.

"That's right! That's it! I believe in you! I would like to support you! All right! It's up to you for a month and a half! Now I have to go. As he spoke, he reached out and took the little donkey.

"Alright! I'm waiting for you! I wish you a smooth journey! Shi Xiaomei said dryly.

Hearing this, Ye Wuwu did not hesitate, stepped on the little donkey, and immediately wanted to move forward.

At this time, Shi Xiaomei stepped forward and grabbed Ye's harmless wrist and said, "Harmless!" You wait! ……”

"What else?" Ya Wuwu looked at her with the reins in his hand and asked.

"Take this! Keep you in the middle of the list! ”

As she spoke, Shi Xiaomei stuffed the little Guanyin Bodhisattva she was holding in her hand into the palm of her harmless hand.

Ye Wuwu looked at the small, exquisite, beautiful, and brightly colored little Guanyin Bodhisattva in his left hand, and knew in his heart that this was a fine art brought by her father from Jingdezhen, a famous town in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was also Xiaomei's favorite gadget. However, Ye Wuwu didn't like this thing, so he handed it to Shi Xiaomei and said, "You should take it!" Maybe I'll lose this thing halfway through! ”

Seeing this, Shi Xiaomei hurriedly pushed Ye Wuwu's hand back and said, "You don't have to worry! It will bless you! Hurry up and hit the road, I'm here to hear from you! ”

In desperation, Ye Wuwu held this small ceramic Guanyin and looked at it, and said in his heart: "Your heart is all poured into this little Guanyin!" All right! I'll take it with me! May it bless me with safety! ”

After saying that, yes harmless held it in his hand again. However, he knew in his heart that this little Guanyin Bodhisattva was a thing in the world, and what he did was made of soil, how could he keep him safe? It's just a good wish.

At this time, Shi Xiaomei couldn't help but be extremely happy in her heart. She was so glad that Ruyi Langjun had accepted what she cherished most, and what else did she have to keep for him? As long as he can be named on the gold list, what method can he use? Even the slightest hint of hope must be added. Although she believed in his talents, she had already decided to do so in order to be sure.

"Xiaomei (sister)! Let's go back! The little donkey that Ye Wuwu stepped under had already waved four little hooves, and he waved to Shi Xiaomei as he walked, "I'll be back soon!" You must wait for me! ”

"Harmless! Take care! I'm waiting for you! Shi Xiaomei waved her hand at Ye harmlessly, and her eyes were already flashing with crystal tears. But she knew in her heart that he couldn't see the tears in her eyes at this time. Because her beloved lover was far away, perhaps only then did she let the tears flow out of her eyes, and she did not want him to see her face that had turned from joy to sadness at this time.

Finally, he stopped the donkey on a high slope far away. He looked back and saw that Shi Xiaomei was still waving her slender jade hand at him in the distance. He looked back, and her fluttering figure was still so charming, so fascinating. However, there is an inexplicable feeling that suddenly swells up in Yah's harmless heart, as if this place is goodbye, and the beautiful girl who was still snuggled up to her is already "beautiful like a flower across the clouds" and is finally out of reach! Bye! My beloved dream girl! Looking at the beautiful shadow from afar, Ye Wuwu finally made a heartless heart, waved to her for the last time, and then turned around and galloped north......
