Chapter 843: The Love of Silk (1)
Cuscuta flowers are parasitic plants.
It is an annual herb that has no green leaves, no roots, and can only rely on special suckers to invade the interior of the host and absorb nutrients.
Ideologically speaking, a year is a lifetime.
For example, cicadas, a summer in their lives.
For example, mayflies die in the twilight of life.
For example, epiphany, flowers bloom short-lived.
Biologically speaking, the silk flower is just a simple plant, absorbing only one of the thousands of nutrients of the host, which is not a concern, but in a personal sense, the silk flower is a contemptible existence.
Modern society is very rich in dodder flowers.
Like now.
Girls and teenagers sitting in the café, one unrestrained, the other melancholy.
The lilac hourglass on the table slowly slid down the fine sand, surrounded by pots of green plants, the young man stretched his brows, smiled in his eyes, and unhurriedly said the purpose of the trip.
"Du Cha, Du Xia confessed to me last night."
The girl who was facing the teenager heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and a trace of unnoticed panic flashed in her eyes, she restrained the panic in her heart, and looked at the teenager with difficulty, "Then you-"
"I accepted it." The young man smiled slightly, the whole person seemed to be in the unreachable sunlight, and his voice was clear and hearty: "I have always liked her, I think about it, there is no more suitable than her, so I agreed."
"That's right," the girl raised her eyes and smiled reluctantly, "Congratulations."
"Well," Jiang Ziyue nodded, with a gentle look between his eyebrows, "I'm afraid we won't be able to leave together in the future." ”
"It's okay," the girl shook her head, swept away her sadness lightly, and said understandingly: "I also have friends in school, and when the time comes, I'll just be with them."
"Okay," Jiang Ziyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Then you can't complain about Du Xia, I still want to be alone with her." ”
"Hmm." The girl lowered her eyelashes and nodded her chin, covering all the emotions under her eyes.
"Then come here, I'll go to school to pick up Duxia in a while, so I'll leave first."
"Okay."
Jiang Ziyue glanced at the girl gently, and when she saw that she didn't complain that she had snatched her sister, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, reached out and took the coat on the back of the chair, turned around and walked out.
The girl who stayed in place raised her head, walked through the clean floor-to-ceiling window, and watched him step by step out of sight, with a suffocating pain in her chest, as if she had been torn in two.
There was a girl on the opposite table laughing and talking to her boyfriend about what is called a silk flower.
"The silk flower is a short-lived plant that relies on its host, has no roots and no roots, and is cheap from head to toe."
The boyfriend laughed when he heard it, "Is there still a girl like a silk flower in modern society?" Probably not, right? ”
"Why not?" The girlfriend said dissatisfiedly: "The kind of person who wants to rely on a man to get on the throne and can't live without a man, isn't it a silk flower?" This kind of woman is more annoying than the green tea White Lotus, and she lives without any self-esteem, just think about it. ”
"Okay, good," her boyfriend said that she couldn't help her, so she had to compromise: "My girlfriend is independent and self-reliant, self-respecting and self-loving, and the most cute."
Only then did the girl turn her anger into a smile, "Just you can talk." ”
The girl picked up the coffee on the table and drank it in one gulp, her mouth full of bitter stains made her eyes red, but she couldn't shed a single tear.
The girl at the next table began to teach her boyfriend what a green tea is, what a virgin is, and what an apple is, and her boyfriend was stunned for a while.
The girl couldn't stay any longer, so she picked up her small backpack and walked outside.
It's early summer, the sun is shining and warm, and it's not yet the hottest, and there are couples coming and going along the way, which makes people's eyes hurt.
The girl took a taxi and went home, as soon as she walked into the villa, the housekeeper Uncle He greeted her, "The second lady is back, are you hungry?" Do you want to eat? ”
"No," the girl said, turning her head and asking, "Where's Mom?"
Uncle He smiled and said, "Madame has made an appointment and has already gone out."
"Hmm." The girl turned around and walked upstairs, Uncle He chased after two steps, and said, "I heard that Mr. called in the morning and said that the eldest young master is coming back, and the second young lady can make some preparations."
"Okay," the girl turned her head and smiled at Uncle He, revealing a pair of crooked black eyes, "Thank you, Uncle He." ”
"You're welcome."
Back upstairs, the girl lay in the sky-blue futon, only to feel tired.
In the afternoon, the eldest lady Du Xia, who went on a date outside, came back, she happened to meet her mother Zhang Han at the door, took Zhang Han's hand and walked into the house, opened her mouth and began to ask her sister's news, "Hasn't Du Cha come back yet?" ”
Uncle He hurriedly replied, "Miss Hui, I've already returned."
"That's right," Duxia nodded, and said with a smile, "You won't tell me when you come back, I thought she sulked with me?"
"What's sulking?" Mother Zhang Han was a little surprised: "You lost your temper with Chacha?"
"How can she," Du Xia shook his head, pretending to be aggrieved: "She's your treasure, I can't afford to mess with her."
Seeing that she couldn't get to the point, Zhang Han was a little anxious, "What happened?" ”
Du Xia removed the smile from the corner of her mouth, and her face was more serious, "Speaking of which, I'm afraid it's still my time with Ziyue that stimulates her." ”
"Ziyue?" Zhang Han looked at his eldest daughter in disbelief, "Are you with Ziyue?" ”
"We were together yesterday," Du Xia sighed faintly, "I think she was afraid that I would ignore her after I was with Ziyue, so she was angry." ”
Zhang Han didn't think about it in that direction, her face changed slightly, "You and Ziyue are together, why don't you talk to your mother first?" ”
When Du Xia heard this, he smiled, "Mom, don't you want me to be with Brother Ziyue?" ”
Zhang Han looked at her with a complicated face, and said in a low voice: "Mom is either unwilling, or thinks it's too fast, how old are you, settle it now, if there is a change in the future, what should I do?"
"You don't have to worry about this," Du Xia relaxed, and said with a smile: "Brother Ziyue has already told me that he will get engaged when I am eighteen years old, and he will get married as soon as I graduate from college, and he will not bluff me."
"Really?" Zhang Han smiled reluctantly and didn't say the sentence "What to do with Chacha".
She followed Du Xia's words and said: "Ziyue is a good boy, since you are with him, he will not bear you in the future, live a good life with him."
"Okay." Du Xia was relieved, showed a charming smile, and hugged Zhang Han affectionately, "It's still my mother who is the best for me." ”
Zhang Han patted her on the shoulder and said seriously: "Don't bother Cha Cha today, I'll go up and bring her food in a while."
"Okay, thank you Mom." Du Xia kissed Zhang Han on the face, and the flower butterfly seemed to run upstairs.
Zhang Han looked at her back with excitement, and his heart turned a thousand times.
Du Cha and Du Xia are her adopted twin daughters, their mother is her college best friend, unmarried and pregnant, betrayed and divorced, and finally died in childbirth, the child was originally to be sent to the welfare home after birth, she took pity on the two without relatives and no reason, so she adopted them and let them return to their knees with their mother's surname.
After the two sisters entered the Jiang family, they grew up with her nephew Jiang Ziyue, Jiang Ziyue was three years older than them, and it can be said that they were friends and childhood sweethearts.
The two sisters like Jiang Ziyue very much, Jiang Ziyue also knows their life experience, and takes very good care of them, especially Du Cha, which can be regarded as Jiang Ziyue's follower, where her nephew goes, Du Cha has to keep up, I thought that in the end, Du Cha would be involved with Jiang Ziyue, but unexpectedly, Du Xia was killed halfway, so that this relationship had a change.
