Chapter Ninety-Four

The light rain in the sky street is as moist as a crisp, and the grass color is close but there is none.

"It's spring. I leaned against the window with my eyes closed, and the Buddha said "um" and continued, "That woman has been standing downstairs for a few days. ”

"Oh?" I rubbed my eyes, a little painful.

"Invite her to come up, it's not good to neglect the guests. I heard the sound of wooden planks and said slowly, "Burn incense for me." ”

The Buddha didn't answer, but I smelled the fragrance in my nose.

Rhino horn.

"Seventh girl, long time no see. The woman sat across from me, and I slowly opened my eyes, and her dress was still the same as when I first saw her.

"It's been a long time. "The rhino horn is fragrant, and the woman's appearance becomes clearer and clearer.

"The Seven Girls still like this incense as before. The woman sniffed lightly and said, "This fragrance is a little stronger, not as good as the Qionghua in my hometown." ”

"Have you gone to see the flowers that Mr. Xia planted?" I felt a little noisy when I heard the sound outside, fumbled and closed the window, sat down at the tea table, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, she took it, and did not drink it.

"It's a strange place, I only know you. The woman pointed to her head: "Seventh girl, I always hurt here." ”

"Pain?" I chuckled, and added, "After drinking this tea, I'll tell you a story." You won't be in pain. ”

She drank the letter in disbelief, and I closed my eyes again and spoke slowly.

One.

In the twelfth year of the Republic of China, there was a troupe that was famous, and it often sold tickets to full seats.

"I heard that the one who came to listen to the play today is the Overseer who has just made a meritorious service. ”

"The Overseer is a legend. ”

"So what, he's just a reckless man with no force. The woman's voice was like a clear spring in the mountains, and as soon as she finished speaking, someone quipped: "Yes, Miss Yufu likes a man who is full of wealth, just like Mr. Xia in the workshop." ”

People who have always been sharp-tongued were teased by such a sentence and couldn't say a word.

"You're messing around again. The man came in through the back door, and the crowd dispersed, and she stood there blushing.

"Mr. Xia. She hated such a soft and weak appearance, but when she met such a person, she couldn't be a snarky person no matter what.

Xia Wei, Xia Wei, Xia Wei.

It was as if she was going to write these two words one by one.

"I heard that the Qionghua in the floating teahouse is blooming, would you like to go with you?" his curved eyebrows and lips made her a little stupid, she wanted to know what kind of woman had lived in such a person's heart.

"Can the seven girls be?" Yu Fu raised his head and asked, Xia Wei shook his head and smiled: "The seventh girl will not be in the building today, it should be the Buddha watching the business today." ”

At the mention of this name, Yu Fu couldn't help but hide his face and chuckle: "This little girl is so cute, except for the seventh girl, I don't see anyone talking to her more than half a word, if it weren't for the young girl of the seventh girl, I would really think that this little girl is her daughter." ”

"You, ......" The tone was a bit spoiling, and Yu Fu liked to listen to him use such a tone, which would make her feel that Xia Wei treated her differently from other girls in the workshop.

"Yu Fu, it's time for you to sing. ”

"Hey, here we are. She said to Xia Wei while responding: "After singing, we will go to see Qionghua." ”

This excerpt is the best time that Yu Fu sings, and the smile is sung vividly through the thick makeup.

But after all, she still couldn't go with him to see Qionghua, and someone came to invite her when she got off the stage, saying that it was an invitation from the Overseers, which was a great blessing in the eyes of outsiders, but in Yu Fu's eyes, she only felt that it was more terrible than a nightmare.

The Overseer is not a fierce god, but a talent, and inviting her into the palace is just to let her sing another excerpt, Yu Fu sings carefully, and the Overseer stops after taking a sip of tea.

"You're afraid of me?" The Overseer's expression was unpredictable, and Yu Fu could only shake his head, just as he caught a glimpse of a few Qionghua plants in the bottle placed on the side, and said quickly, "Adults love Qionghua too?"

"This is the flower of my hometown. I heard the owner say that you are from Jiangsu?" The overseer always had a smiling look, and Yu Fu relieved his heart and replied: "Yu Fu was only adopted in Jiangsu when he was young, not from Jiangsu. ”

The Overseer seemed to be trying to say something, but he was disturbed by someone approaching him and whispering, Yu Fu lowered his head, secretly watching his every movement.

"Please come in. The word "please" of the Overseer made Yu Fu slightly surprised, there was no one in this place who could afford this word.

"Mr. Xia. The Overseer stood up respectfully, Yu Fu was a little surprised when he heard this title, and slowly raised his head, it was really Xia Wei.

"I haven't seen you for ten years, and you've made a lot of progress. Xia Wei still looked indifferent, and the Overseer invited him to the throne before saying, "If it weren't for Mr. Teach, Xiao Su would not have the status he has today." ”

"I've heard that you've invited a showman. Xia Wei went to see Yu Fu at this time, Yu Fu wanted to speak out, but when he saw Xia Wei shaking his head, he kept silent.

"When I heard that she was from Yangzhou, I wondered if I would be an old acquaintance with my husband. The Overseer looked at Yu Fu, who was so frightened by the look that he buried his head lower.

"Your eyes are getting better. Xia Wei took a sip of tea and continued: "I adopted a child seven years ago, and you probably know it." ”

Mr. Xia laughed, who in this world can compare to Mr. Resourcefulness. Yu Fu listened to the Overseer's words, although it was a compliment on the surface, but secretly he didn't know how many cold arrows were hidden.

"Mr. Xia, Xiao Su bought a villa in the west of the city, which is very exquisite, I don't know...... Would you like to laugh at Mr. Xia?"

"This is a good intention from you, how can I refuse. Xia Wei looked at Yu Fu again, and the Overseer smiled: "In that case, how about Miss Yu Fu live with Mr. Xia?"

"Very well. ”

This sentence made Yu Fu breathe a long sigh of relief, but how could this breath be so easy to finish.

When he left the Overseer's Mansion, Xia Wei's face was not very good-looking.

"Mr. Xia......" Yu Fu bit his lip and disappeared, Xia Wei continued to walk forward, Yu Fu subconsciously pulled his sleeve, and finally couldn't help crying: "Mr. Xia, if you want to scold, scold it, it's okay to fight, it's uncomfortable." ”

Xia Wei really raised her hand, but just touched her head, sighed and said, "I still like the way you followed behind you when you were a child and called 'Brother Xia'." ”

"Aren't you angry?" Yu Fu still had tears in his eyes, Xia Wei wiped his sleeve, and said while wiping: "What's the anger? He originally came for me, you were just implicated." ”

"Yes...... But Mr. obviously can't use it. Although Yu Fu didn't know the grievances between them, she just felt that if he took the risk for her, it would be very unworthwhile.

"Silly and depressed. Xia Wei looked up at the sky and muttered softly: "It's just a pity that I won't be able to go to the floating teahouse to drink tea and watch Qionghua in the future." ”

Yu Fu knew the reason why Xia Wei did this, Xia Wei was a kind person herself, and she didn't want to bother her anymore.

"Well, let's plant one of our own. Yu Fu tried his best to make himself smile genuinely, and Xia Wei also smiled, but he only tugged at the corners of his mouth lightly.

The courtyard sent by the Overseer is indeed good, on the first day of moving in, Xia Wei planted a seed of a Qionghua tree in the courtyard, Yu Fu looked at that small area and spoke to it very happily, Xia Wei watched her talk to herself reverently to the seed.

It was a very happy time, at least many years later, Yu Fu can still remember Xia Wei watering the seeds.

If, if he hadn't been disturbed by others, Yu Fu would have liked to have it like this for the rest of his life.

"Is the overseer going to do something for the Overseer?" Yu Fu couldn't spend the day as calmly as Xia Wei, and she couldn't see the Overseer coming to Xia Wei every day under the pretext of playing chess, but Xia Wei asked her so good-naturedly, "Are you looking down on you?"

Yu Fu buried her head and didn't answer, so Xia Wei touched her head and said, "The tree will grow in a while." Yu Fu held back for a long time before he muffled: "Mr. Xia, if you follow the Overseer, you follow the Kuomintang." ”

"Yu Fu, there are not just hats and likes in this world. There was emotion in Xia Wei's eyes that even Yu Fu couldn't understand, but she knew that Xia Wei still stepped out this step.

In this way, Yu Fu has fewer days to see Xia Wei, and occasionally Xia Wei comes back with a drunken smell, holding the soon-to-grow Qionghua tree as if she wants to vomit out her stomach, Yu Fu feels sorry for such Xia Wei, but she can't do anything to save such Xia Wei.

March 20 is Xia Wei's birthday, Yu Fu went to the north of the city early to buy Xia Wei's favorite dumpling cake, who knew that on the way back met the Overseer, Yu Fu secretly said unlucky, but still had to lower his eyebrows and say: "Lord Overseer." ”

"Mr. Xia seems to like you very much. The Overseer's eyes made Yu Fu feel strange, like a wife looking at a concubine her husband had bought from outside.

"Mr. Xia has always been very good to people. ”

"That's true. When the laughter died down, Yu Fu looked up, and the Overseer was already in the car and left.

When I returned to the courtyard, I saw Xia Wei sitting in the courtyard looking at Qionghua Tree and muttering, Yu Fu got closer to hear clearly, Xia Wei said "Qionghua is about to bloom".

"In another month, the Qionghua will bloom. Yu Fu sat next to him and put down the pastries he bought, Xia Wei slowly turned his head with a dull look.

"Wait until the Qionghua blooms......" "I killed someone." After Xia Wei said this, Yu Fu's hand trembled slightly, and Xia Wei continued: "The Overseer said that he wants to hear you sing. ”

"And then?" Xia Wei's silence made Yu Fu feel sad, she never wanted to embarrass him, from the day he rescued her from hell, he was the Buddha in her heart, who would embarrass a Buddha.

"In the future, Yu Fu will not be around, Mr. remember......" Yu Fu exhaled deeply before continuing: "Remember to add clothes from time to time, don't drink too much if Mr. is not in good health, and on the day the Qionghua blooms, Mr. Wang wrote a letter to inform Yu Fu." ”

Xia Wei clenched her fists and lowered her head to see her expression clearly, Yu Fu felt that it was okay, she didn't want to see Xia Wei feel any sadness.

When Yu Fu left, he didn't have the slightest nostalgia, and he didn't even look back. This night, Yu Fu did not come back.

"I'm just afraid of the ruthless species, why worry about breaking the fate. The two of you, temper the separation of life and death, break the love barrier and open the true face, and the cause and effect will appear with fate. I feel that the meeting is still ordinary, and you meet in this reunion palace?" Yu Fu slowly sang the song "Palace of Eternal Life", turning his fingertips slightly, singing the love of Yang Guifei and Li Longji.

The Overseer's fingers clasped against the glass table, and the beat made the whole piece weird.

"Mr. Xia is here. This sentence caused Yu Fu to sing the wrong key, and the Overseer frowned slightly, and Yu Fu stopped.

Xia Wei became thinner and thinner, his face was pale, Yu Fu didn't turn his head and forced himself not to look at him, only to hear Xia Wei cough, but this sound was enough to pull every heartstring of Yu Fu.

"Yu Fu, pour a cup of flower and fruit tea to Mr. The Overseer's words made Yu Fu have to face a reality, Yu Fu turned around a little numbly, and his hands shaking a little when he poured the tea.

"Sing another play to the gentleman. Yu Fu knows how to hold back her tears, and she also knows how to be more liked on stage, this is the trick that the actor is best at, how can she forget.

She no longer has to wear some simple clothes, and the cheongsam dresses of those young ladies and celebrities are no longer rare, and even Xia Wei has to call her - madam.

The Overseer bought her a villa in the concession and gave her a servant to give her grace and luxury, but Yu Fu thought that if Xia Wei wanted to take her away one day, she would not want to take anything with her but the thrush she raised.

But it's just a thought, after all, Yu Fu hasn't seen Xia Wei since she moved in, and when it comes to contact, she also sent a letter half a year ago to inform her that the flowers have bloomed, and there is a dry Qionghua in the letter, which she has put in the box and has not been dusted.

Yu Fu will dream many nights, dreaming back to the night when he first saw Xia Wei seven years ago, he handed her a steamed bun, and gave her a home where her parents died, and there was a tablet in that home, which was engraved with the tomb of his beloved wife Xia Mu, Yu Fu always heard Xia Wei say that it was engraved with his most important person, and what Yu Fu dreamed of one night was that Xia Wei carved the tablet again, but this time it was her, Xia Yufu, Yu Fu with her husband's surname.

Yu Fu's dream is very fulfilling, she married him, she died of old age, but every time she woke up from the dream, the person next to her was never him.

On the winter solstice of one year, Xia Wei was imprisoned by the overseers, and there were rumors in the city, some people said that Xia Wei was to avenge his deceased wife, and some people said that Xia Wei secretly followed the Communist Party, but who was who was not Yu Fu didn't want to know at all, she just wanted him to live a safe life.

Yu Fu ran to beg the Overseer, and the Overseer pinched her chin and said viciously, "Xia Wei, he deserves to die." ”

No one likes to be betrayed, let alone someone who holds the power of life and death.

Yu Fu looked at the Overseer, just watched quietly, and finally asked slowly: "If Xia Wei deserves to die, then what about the Overseer?"

Apparently he didn't expect her to say that.

"The Overseer was once a student of Xia Wei, but now he wants to kill his former mentor and be disloyal, the Overseer is unfilial for the rest of his life, and on the day of his elopement, the Overseer is treacherous, leaving a weak woman to bear the infamy, which is unjust. Such disloyalty, filial piety, and injustice, the Overseers deserve to die. Yu Fu knew that the Overseer would definitely slap her, but the pain on her face was not as good as the pain in her heart, Yu Fu got up and covered her lips and smiled: "Lord Overseer, don't be angry, if you die so simply, how can you be worthy of Yu Fu's relatives who were killed by the Overseers a few years ago?"

"The Overseer hates Xia Wei only because he killed his own wife, who is also your lover. Yu Fu rubbed his red and swollen side face, and looked at the Overseer with a fierce eye: "It's just the Overseer, why aren't you also the one who handed over the poison?" Xia Wei is a famous person, but he is his wife, but the red apricot is out of the wall, even if Xia Wei doesn't take her life, Youyou will not let her live. And, don't you know who this adulterer is?"

"Shut up!"

"Xia Wei has never killed anyone, you are the one who kills, you deserve to die the most, but why don't you die. Yu Fu stepped forward and scratched the Overseer's face with his fingernails, but was restrained by the people who rushed in, and the Overseer looked a little horrible as he covered his wounds.

Yu Fu finally saw Xia Wei, the prison was damp, Xia Wei was tied to an iron frame, and there were scars everywhere on his body.

"Mr. Xia is really good at teaching. The Overseer stared at Yu Fu, and Xia Wei mourned when she saw her.

"Come on, put the gentleman down. The Overseer took out his gun from his waist and put it on the ground and said, "Mr. has always been loyal, how could he betray the student, the student has found out, the murderer of the student is Yu Fu, Mr. should know how to choose, Sir should know in his heart." ”

The Overseer's trick is very good, Yu Fu wants to save Xia Wei's life, but he can let Xia Wei's life be regretted for the rest of his life.

The cell door was closed, leaving only the two of them. It's been a long, long time, not like this.

"Mr. Xia. Yu Fu picked up the gun on the ground and handed it to Xia Wei, who hung his head for a long time before saying, "Kill me." ”

Yu Fu shook his head, very calm: "From the day you gave me to the Overseer, I knew that you would take revenge, and if you love her, you will naturally hate him. If you hate him, you will naturally want to kill him, so isn't it better that you can stay with him after I die?"

"Xia Wei, if you hadn't wanted to implicate me from the beginning, you wouldn't have sent me over. Yu Fu held his hand and grabbed his temple and said, "Since you have thought of using me as a shield from the beginning, you shouldn't be soft-hearted now." ”

This time there was a long silence in the prison yu fu closed his eyes and heard the sound of the plane board snapping and then.

"And then, bangβ€”" The woman gestured to herself, and I saw tears in her eyes in a trance, but a soul who refused to be reincarnated had no tears.

"Am I dead?" the woman covered her face, I reached out and pulled her hand away and said word by word: "Su Shi Yufu, died in the fifteenth year of the Republic of China, this is your memory, this cup of tea is called death." It reminds you of the events of your life. ”

"What about Xia Wei. "It is now ninety years away from the fifteenth year of the Republic of China. ”

The woman looked up and smiled, "It's all dead, but I didn't even tell him a word I liked." Even the appointment to see the flowers together has never been. ”

"If you don't want to be reincarnated, someone asked me to give you a ride. I fumbled through my sleeve and eventually pulled out a handkerchief.

"Su Shi is depressed, he has no chance in this life, and he is unwilling in the next life. I read the words above, and she obviously didn't know that she had written such a few sentences, and I added: "I have another story about - Xia Wei." ”

"Mr. Xia?" The corners of the woman's eyes were fluorescent, and I coughed slightly and covered my lips: "It's never Xia Wei who wants revenge." ”

"You talk nonsense!"

"So, what are you afraid of?" I looked up at her who was getting up from the table and said: "The shooting murder case in the fifteenth year of the Republic of China, on the day of the murder, you were followed by Xia Wei. ”

I drank the tea in front of me and felt bitter in my heart: "On the day Xia Wei died, I went to see him. ”

The woman's hand slowly pinched into a circle, and I looked at her face and sighed a little: "Xia Wei only left four words." ”

"No regrets are fate. ”

"None... Regret...... No regrets are fate. ”

I finally heard her cry, and the fragrance of tea was faint, as if it had drifted to the past.
