Chen Changye knelt in the room, quietly watching the sky darken, his eyes were as flat as water, and he kept recalling the bits and pieces of the past. came back to her senses and looked at Changpei next to her, she also bowed her head and knelt. It's all around.

Chen Changye once heard his mother say that his father was the son of a general of a small country, who eloped with the maid in the house when he was young and fled to a small mountain village to live for a few years. Later, when the general died of illness, he went back to worship, and Zhongji was forced to inherit the position of the general, and later married a wife. But the maid gave birth to a child alone, and in the spring of the year of birth, the old tree at the door sprouted, so it was named Chen Changye.

And then the general didn't know what happened, and in my mother's mouth, the general was dead. And the mother's family has never heard her mention it, but vaguely heard that the mother is a maid who was abducted and sold to a brothel and then sold to the general's mansion.

Chen Changye sighed secretly, his life experience is vague, it's okay, he will be alone in the future, but there is nothing to worry about. He said in a deep voice: "Changpei, if you are sleepy, you can sleep first, and I will come to wake the spirit tonight, right?"

Changpei looked at Chen Changye obediently, his stomach rumbled, Chen Changye suddenly found that they hadn't eaten for an afternoon, Chen Changye smiled dumbly, and said, "Hungry, I'll go and prepare some dinner for you first, you get up first, knelt down for an afternoon......"

The candle flame faltered, and Chang Pei got up to pat the dust off his knees, and sat aside with a smile. Chen Changye went to the stove, lit a fire and boiled water, went outside the house to pick some of his own cabbage, took a string of air-dried bacon, and said: "We will have a hearty meal tonight, let my mother see that we are living well, and don't worry about us anymore." ”

As he spoke, Chen Changye's eyes dimmed, and he muttered to himself: "Yes, my mother said that no matter what happens, you have to laugh, things won't change, but your mood can change......" He entered the kitchen with a smile.

After a while, the aroma overflowed. Chen Changye carried a few plates of side dishes to the small stone table outside the house, how long has it been since he had eaten here? Chen Changye beckoned Changpei to come over for dinner, she jumped over, sat lightly on the chair, and never left Chen Changye.

"What's the matter, looking at me like this?" Chen Changye pulled a few mouthfuls of food and shouted, he looked at the smile on Changpei's face, and there was a sense of happiness in his heart, in the most difficult time, it was good to have someone willing to accompany him and comfort himself.

Changpei pretended to be careless and pulled the food, but she couldn't hide it from Chen Changye, she asked: "Your mother, do you have any words to leave for you?" Looking at her shy appearance, Chen Changye couldn't help but want to laugh, what was she thinking, how could she be so shy?

However, Chen Changye still answered her seriously: "My mother was sick a few months ago, and she probably didn't expect it." As you can see, she also died in a hurry, so she didn't leave me with any words. ”

In this way, Chen Changye himself was a little regretful, Chang Pei saw that he was not very interested, and did not ask again, after the two of them finished eating, they looked back, there were two black shadows standing outside the fence, which frightened Chen Changye, so he also wanted to scare Chang Pei, so he asked: "Chang Pei, look over there, is that black and white impermanence?"

Chang Pei looked at the two blurry black shadows, frowned slightly, and said, "Black and white impermanence? Looking at her confused appearance, she really hadn't heard of it, so Chen Changye could only give up.

Quietly, Chen Changye stepped forward, separated by five or six feet, and jokingly asked, "Are the two of you black and white impermanent?"

The two people were obviously stunned, and one of the women bowed slightly, her voice was as light as falling leaves in the wind, and said, "The little woman An Keyi, roaming here with her husband tonight, I am very offended. ”

"I'm not your husband anymore. The other man said lightly, his tone and voice were extremely familiar, but Chen Changye couldn't remember it.

An Keyi in the darkness was a little stubborn, she said: "My husband and I have visited the church, whether it is or not, I am already my husband's person!"

Chen Changye heard it, and it was clear that the newlyweds had a conflict. However, it is also strange to do this in front of his mother's mourning hall. Chang Pei walked up to the side and asked softly, "Brother Changye, Lin Jingnian, why are you here?"

Lin Jingnian? Chen Changye was stunned, it turned out that the man was Lin Jingnian, what was he doing here? Chen Changye walked up and took a closer look, the down-and-out man was Lin Jingnian, although he said that people had calculated himself, but he didn't have much malice.

So Chen Changye asked, "Lin Jingnian, did you come here for something, what happened to you?"

When An Keyi saw that it was her husband's acquaintance, she hurriedly nodded and said, "On a whim, the two of us came out to admire the moon a few times, disturbing Mr., I'm really sorry." ”

But how could Chen Changye not know that she was lying, and when she spoke, her eyes blinked vigorously at Changpei, as if she was hinting at something, and looking at Lin Jingnian's depressed look, Chen Changye naturally guessed that his plan had failed.

Chang Pei was also a little puzzled, why did the beautiful sister keep winking at herself? As far as her head was concerned, I was afraid that she couldn't guess the meaning of this, but Chen Changye guessed it, so he said, "It's getting late, why don't you two stay in the cold house for a while?" My sister and I will prepare a hot meal for you?"

Sister? Chang Pei looked around after hearing this, she didn't know which sister Chen Changye was talking about, she quietly asked tentatively: "Brother Changye, you, and, sister?"

Chen Changye smiled knowingly, and secretly told her: "You call me Brother Changye, how can I not recognize you as my sister?" After speaking, Chang Pei pouted and seemed a little unhappy, but after thinking about it, he covered his mouth and snickered.

An Keyi softly persuaded Lin Jingnian, Lin Jingnian was silent for a while, he has always been arrogant, but now he has to accept other people's alms, how can he feel good, even if An Keyi and Chen Changye said so much to give him face, but he still doesn't want to bother Chen Changye.

Just as he was contradictory, Chen Changye came out of the small door on the side, pulled Lin Jingnian in, and pulled him in very enthusiastically. Lin Jingnian reluctantly entered the courtyard, while An Keyi pursed his lips and smiled, Chen Changye helped the two of them serve rice, and understood that they couldn't let go of it next to him, so he said a few words and left.

Back in the mourning hall, Chen Changye knelt comfortably on the futon, looked back and saw his mother's coffin, his eyes suddenly dimmed again, if his mother could see the eldest son of the city lord's mansion come to eat at home, how happy it would be. It's a pity that it's no longer visible.

Chang Pei looked at the two people outside on the side, they had already started, Lin Jingnian devoured it, as if he didn't have anything to eat tomorrow, Chen Changye whispered: "Sister, let me tell you, Lin Jingnian may have been kicked out, let's take care of him as much as we can, don't mention the matter of his City Lord's Mansion!"

Changpei nodded, her big smart eyes looked at Chen Changye, hooked the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "Brother, I, I know!"

After dinner, Lin Jingnian and An Keyi came in to worship Chen Changye and his mother, and the last four people went out to sit for a while, saying that it was to admire the moon, this weather is also suitable, the autumn is high and cool, a round of crescent moon is extremely bright, and the stars in the sky are like a few blank spaces on the ink painting.

"Lin Jingnian, what are your plans for the future?" Chen Changye asked naturally, not mentioning the matter of the City Lord's Mansion at all.

Lin Jingnian Zhengzheng thought for a while, and finally shook his head and said: "It's gone, everything is gone, and I don't know what to do......" Looking at his expression, it seems that he was indeed kicked out of the City Lord's Mansion, I didn't expect this guy to be so down.

Chen Changye was a little sympathetic to him, thinking about himself, it seemed that his mother was dead, and he had nothing to worry about, he could also find a branch to hang himself and drive to the west, anyway, there was nothing he could be nostalgic for in this world, no, there should be one.

Thinking of this, Chen Changye turned his head to look at Chang Pei who looked up at the stars next to her, her innocent eyes could always exude a charming light, as if it was another world, and anything in the world in her eyes could glow.

"Well, my plan in the future is probably to live with my sister. Chen Changye said with a smile, touching Changpei's hair, she turned her head and looked at Chen Changye happily, rubbing it in his warm big hand very happily, as well-behaved and cute as a kitten.

Seeing this, An Keyi next to him was eager to try, and looked at Lin Jingnian expectantly, but this nerd didn't pay attention to it, and still looked at the white moonlight on the table stupidly, the last time I saw such a beautiful moonlight, it seemed that it was the night I married An Keyi.

Lin Jingnian also understood that the things in front of him could not be changed, and it was a foregone conclusion, but he was stunned, and thought about it, why should he be entangled in the past, could it be that he would be a waste person if he left the City Lord's Mansion?

Suddenly, he had an idea, Lin Jingnian said: "I think we may be able to go to Chang'an City to break ......" He looked expectantly at Chen Changye and Chen Changpei next to him, and An Keyi, who was sitting quietly next to him.

An Keyi hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Wherever the husband goes, the concubine will go!"

Chen Changye was stunned for a moment when he heard Lin Jingnian's words, and then his eyes lit up, "Yes, my mother told me before that Chang'an is very good, if you can settle down there, then ......" Halfway through speaking, Chen Changye realized that his mother had left, and he didn't expect that he actually owed his mother so many thoughts.

Chang Pei didn't speak on the side, she only knew that Chen Changye had gone to Chang'an to find a miracle doctor before, and she didn't have much impression of that side, but she just felt that there were many people, prosperous, and lively. As long as Chen Changye was by her side, she felt the same everywhere.

The four of them were silent for a while, and then they all went back to sleep, Changpei still wanted to sleep with Chen Changye's hand, but Chen Changye wanted to keep the spirit, so he had to spoil her, the two slept next to the hall of the mourning, and Chen Changye kept awake. And Lin Jingnian and An Keyi slept in the side room, and the three of them fell asleep deeply, tired after a day's work, and suddenly fell into a dream.

Chen Changye was the only one who enjoyed the silent moonlight......
