The space around him was distorting arbitrarily, and in front of Ning Yufei was the street like a stream of water, and the torrent formed by the endless flow of vehicles hit him, and the buildings were lined up, but it seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist, which was unreal. At the top of the building, the never-ending pendulum is turning and turning, and if you look closely, it is turning in a counterclockwise direction. He reacted, and it turned out that the traffic on the street was also moving backwards! He looked at himself, and it turned out that he had returned to the way he used to be!

The scene is changing, the gorgeous and grand square is fading away, and the surrounding scenery is getting clearer and closer, back to that year......

That year, his mother left him forever, and his father had been away from home for several years, leaving him with no other relatives and becoming an orphan.

He remembered that the winter of that year was particularly cold, and the drizzling snow spread a thick layer of vegetarian in the countryside, like the white feathers of angels, and like the petals of white cherry blossoms, pale and pure, without color.

It was that winter, at the beginning of the new year, that he would spend several hours at his mother's grave every day. His house was not far from the cemetery, only a few miles away, and he would get up early in the morning, clean himself up, and go to his mother to talk. He remembered that in the first two years, his mother had been very haggard and did not like to talk, and he had always been by his mother's side, and now his mother was alone in this wilderness, and he was always worried that his mother would not get used to it, so he took time to spend time with his mother every day.

In the early morning of that day, the weather was extremely cold, Ning Yufei was wrapped in a thick cotton jacket and a scarf woven with coarse wool, his short body was wrapped like a zongzi, his hands were in the pockets on both sides, and his eyes were staring at the ground blankly. Walking past a few snow-covered ridges, the countryside and slush stuck to his feet, and the grass beside the road was also shrouded in a layer of snow, he stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful, feeling a biting chill.

On such a morning, in the countryside, there were many people who had already gotten up, all of them peasants and peasant women who were busy with housework, and in such an early morning, the stove fire was lit and the smoke was raised.

It was on that morning, for the first time, that a girl appeared in front of him.

With big eyes, long eyelashes, a goose-yellow down jacket and a cute bunny down hat on his head, he stood beside a lemon tree with a white Kaikai, his body crooked, and his hands still fiddling with something.

Ning Yufei saw her side face, and could only see a bright eye, he was a little curious, because looking at this girl's temperament, she should be a city girl, but she didn't know why she was in this countryside?

But Ning Yufei didn't pay too much attention to this, because he pretended to be uncomfortable in his heart, and he didn't want to pay attention to everything else.

"Hey, hello, can you do me a favor?" Just as Ning Yufei turned around and left, a pleasant sound came from behind him, like a spring water tinkling, like a yellow warbler singing willows.

Ning Yufei stopped, but didn't turn around, just turned half of his face, and said, "Are you talking to me?"

......

In short, that's how it started at the beginning, it seems to be bloody, but it happened so really. Ning Yufei helped her pick up an injured kitten from under the lemon tree, and then there were a few more mud paw prints on her body. After he put down the kitten, he turned around and prepared to leave, the whole process was only three minutes, and he didn't say a word, because he didn't want to expose the nervousness in his heart. He is 13 years old, just in the first grade of junior high school, and he is already a little ignorant about love, but he has practiced martial arts since he was a child and can control his heartbeat, so he behaves calmly. But if he spoke, he would inevitably expose the timidity in his heart.

But the girl was very talkative, and when he was about to leave, she took off her gloves and stretched out her white and tender hand to Ning Yufei.

"Thank you, my name is Ai Ni, Ai Qing's Ai, Neon's Ni!"

Ning Yufei stared at that hand, didn't come back to his senses for half a minute, and forgot to stretch out his hand. This made the girl a little embarrassed, she shook her hand in front of Ning Yufei, Ning Yufei finally came to her senses, and her face was a little red.

......

The girl followed her family back to her hometown to worship her ancestors, but the car broke down here, and the family stayed here for a long time, so she slipped out to see the snow, but saw a wounded kitten lying under the lemon tree.

She and Ning Yufei are two months younger in the same year, but they look more mature than Ning Yufei, Ning Yufei looks like a child in addition to her quiet temperament, even if she is 13 years old, she can be called a child......

Ning Yufei didn't say much, just told his name, and the rest of the time he just listened to the girl's voice or replied "um".

Ai Ni was a little dissatisfied with Ning Yufei's perfunctory attitude, but she keenly noticed that Ning Yufei's eyes were full of sadness and depth beyond that of people of this age, but she didn't know why, she just couldn't give birth to resentful emotions. "He must have something on his mind, that kind of sadness, it must be deep in the bone marrow. She thought to herself, because she had experienced this feeling before, that is, when her beloved grandmother died, she felt a grief deep in her bones.

Ning Yufei looked at the girl in front of him and suddenly his eyes turned red, and he panicked instantly, because he didn't know what he had done wrong, and he was afraid of being seen by others, thinking that he was doing something bad to other girls!

Seeing Ning Yufei's cramped appearance, the girl laughed out loud, and her trace of sadness was instantly washed away.

Youth is like this, troubles come and go quickly.

After that, Ning Yufei went to see her mother, Ai Ni was idle and had nothing to do, so she wanted to follow, because the road was not far, Ning Yufei was noncommittal, and walked in front without saying a word.

At this time, of course, Ai Ni didn't know that Ning Yufei's mother had passed away, and she was still looking at the scenery all the way, saying nonsense such as 'the snow scene in the countryside is so beautiful', as for the kitten, of course she hugged it regardless of the mud, girls are sometimes willful, but this is how they look straightforward and cute!

Behind the ridges, behind a few wheat fields and corn fields, there is a small slope, there are no steps, only some footprints are vertical and horizontal, which are all left by Ning Yufei these days.

On the small slope is the grave of the mother's family, including the mother's grave, which is also newly erected here. The very simple hill bag built up by a few square stones is the distance between Ning Yufei and his mother, and the distance between the words life and death.

Ai Ni felt that something was wrong when she saw the white ribbon faintly hanging on the hillside, but when she really walked uphill and saw the newly erected tomb, the tombstone was only the simplest engraved with the name and year of birth and death, not even an inscription!

She couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness, and tears couldn't stop falling, she quickly covered her mouth and didn't let herself make a sound, for fear of disturbing Ning Yufei
