Wait for the flowers to bloom
On the second day, when Jiang Qing got up, Gongsun Jue had already left, leaving her a letter and a burden, which Ye Ci handed over to her.
The letter probably said that he didn't like to say goodbye, it was too sad, and he told him a lot, and finally mentioned that the bag contained a gift for her.
Two silk Luo skirts, a jade pendant hanging around the waist, a jade hairpin, and various medicine bottles with different effects. Luo Skirt was prepared last time she went down the mountain, but because of Ye Ci's disappearance, she never had a chance to give it to her.
After reading it, Jiang Qing shed a few tears without a smile, and when she saw Ye Ci coming, she hurriedly wiped it off, and looked at him with a smile as if nothing had happened.
Ye Ci took the medicinal oil to Jiang Qing to wipe her feet, Jiang Qing took it and wiped it herself, Ye Ci did not leave, he sat next to her, looked at her, and said sullenly: "Are you really not going with us?" ”
Jiang Qing paused, was silent for a moment, she shook it gently, continued the movement in her hand, and said without raising her head: "There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed!" Grandpa said that everyone has a different way to go, I am not here, and I don't want to do a great doctor who hangs the pot to help the world, I am a girl, I just want to live a peaceful and stable life, take care of my grandfather to enjoy his old age, and watch Lele grow up, which is a pity for grandma, and you are not going to the ends of the earth, do you never come back if you leave? ”
Finally, when Jiang Qing said this, she turned her head to look at Ye Ci, she was smiling, there were two pear vortices at the corners of her mouth, and her eyes were shining.
Ye Ci was stunned for a moment, he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, he didn't overdo it, lowered his eyelashes to hide his expression, and changed the topic: "The ground thorn cream for you should be applied on time three times a day, you can apply a little more, and you should apply it evenly." ”
"Hmm." Jiang Qing nodded sweetly.
Ye continued: "Actually, yesterday was not what you thought, I didn't want to test you on medicine, and I didn't need to."
Thinking of yesterday's incident, Jiang Qing was a little funny, thinking of the day when she found Ye Ci in Xueling Mountain, she said with some guilt: "Actually, I didn't talk like that yesterday, something happened to my sister, I was in a hurry to find her, so I was a little anxious, and the words were a little heavier, I also want to thank you for saving me yesterday, and last time, that time you were in a coma, and you haven't had a chance to tell you, I hope it's not too late." ”
Seeing Jiang Qing's sincere gaze, the corners of Ye Ci's mouth hooked, and when he stood up, he dropped a sentence: "Someone already said it yesterday." ”
Jiang Qing was stunned for a moment, and said? When?
When Ye Ci walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and said with a gentle smile: "You wipe it quickly, wipe it and finish eating, and go to a place with me after eating." ”
"Where to go?" Jiang Qing couldn't help but ask.
"Plant trees!" Ye Ci turned around and walked out the door.
Gongsun Jue once told a story to Ye Ci, saying that once upon a time, the wife of a family gave birth to a lot of daughters, and always wanted a son, and the night before Mrs. gave birth, Huaxian held a dream, saying that she would give birth to a son, and that son had a natural disease, if you want your son to be safe, you have to plant an apricot tree in the yard, the next day Mrs. woke up, just saw a plate of yellow apricots on the bed, Mrs. told her about it, but Xianggong didn't believe it, Mrs. Yan wanted to eat apricots to have such a dream, The doctor clearly said that the lady was pregnant with a girl.
Mrs. had a seizure on the same day to give birth, Mrs. gave birth very hard, almost died of dystocia, at the critical moment, Mrs. stuffed two apricots into her mouth and ate, she instantly sobered up a lot, used her last strength, and really gave birth to a son, Mrs. and her family were overjoyed, and he planted an apricot tree at the gate of the yard.
Childe has not cried or made trouble since he was born, and he has never been able to speak, until one day when the apricot blossoms are in full bloom, Childe suddenly opened his mouth and called his father and mother, and Childe's father happily held him in a circle, and bowed to the apricot tree.
Childe liked the apricot tree very much, he would tell it anything on his mind, and he would tell it happy things, he took care of it carefully, watered it and fertilized it, and when the little apricot tree grew into a big tree that could enjoy the shade, Childe also became an adult.
One day, Childe met a pleasant woman, he described her appearance to the apricot tree, and said his thoughts, but he had never seen the woman, Childe thought about love day and night, and the person was emaciated, and finally in the coming year, when the apricot blossoms were in full bloom, Childe saw his beloved woman again, and the woman lay under the apricot blossom tree, and finally the woman and Childe became husband and wife.
"You're not done yet!"
Jiang Qing then told the follow-up of the story, after marriage, the son and the woman loved each other very much, but the son died not long after, the woman became sick with the childe, and often cried at the grave of the childe, she also died after planting an apricot tree next to the grave of the childe, and the apricot tree in the yard also died, not blooming, nor growing branches and leaves, but there was a tree of apricot blossoms next to the grave of the childe.
After speaking, Jiang Qing also commented: "Although this story has a little fantasy humor and a little sadness, it is not difficult to understand that what it wants to express is longing for love and companionship." ”
Ye Ci said with a strange face: "How do you know?" ”
Jiang Qing grinned: "This book is pressed under the bookcase in the study, I saw it by accident." ”
Ye Ci said angrily: "Then since you have seen it, why didn't you say it?" ”
Jiang Qing said a little sneeringly: "The storyteller is different, and the taste of the story will be different, you see, you tell it, this is a good story where all wishes come true." ”
Ye Ci stopped talking, he took a sapling and planted it in the pit that had just been dug.
He still remembers that when he was still very young, he planted trees with Master, and he was just like Jiang Qing now, sitting on the lawn, watching Master plant trees, and listening to him tell this story, but he didn't know that there was such a paragraph later.
Over the years, Ye Ci and Gongsun Du have planted a large apricot forest here, and at this moment they have spit out some flower bones, Ye Ci planted two more today, and after watering the small saplings, Ye Ci walked over and sat next to Jiang Qing, and instructed: "You have to take good care of them for me and Master, maybe when they bloom......"
We'll see you too! The last sentence, Ye Ci did not say it, and the last few words, Ye Ci also said very quietly.
"When they can bloom, you and Uncle Gongsun will come back, right?" Jiang Qing tilted her head and asked, without waiting for Ye Ci to speak, she patted her chest and promised: "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of them, and when the apricot blossoms are in full bloom, I will pick them down and make fine wine, bury them under the tree, and wait for you to come back and drink together!" ”
