Chapter 4: A Match Made in Heaven
The blue sky, the clouds, the sun has just risen, and it is the time of warmth. The wind is also fresh, fresh and fragrant, as if it were the breath of an amorous girl.
There was no fog, and the faint white clouds were ethereal, but it looked like a dream. A gust of wind blew, and the frightened birds among the pines swept up, and the forest was difficult to be quiet for a long time.
The scent of pine nuts floats in the autumn breeze. The aroma of pine nuts is full of murderous meaning.
The wind blew from the surface of the lake, and the sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, but it seemed as cold as the wind.
Throughout the ages, I don't know how many people have used many nouns to describe "willow". Some people say that willows are like silk, some people say that willows are like snow, whether it is silk like snow, in the minds of ordinary people, willows are always soft. However, at this time, the willow tree in front of him was just bare, without the reflection of green stripes, and turned into dead branches.
Qin Qianye gently stroked the remnants of the withered willow vicissitudes with his hand, and didn't say anything for a while, just stared blankly. No matter how withered the body of the willow tree is now, it can be reborn in the next year, and the thousands of green willow silks dotted at that time can make it forget the desolation of the moment. But people are different, once they get old, they can only sigh in vain at the empty and sad evening scene.
The slaughter of early autumn is always sad, especially in the distant mountains, lonely mountains, sloping stone paths, and splashes of moss......
How many miserable pasts of predecessors have been buried under the moss, and how many autumn leaves love the branches, but they are blown off by this long wind.
Shang Wuxian suddenly said, "Brother Qin, you have something on your mind. I've never seen you so preoccupied in all these years, and why have you said so many things I don't understand?"
Qin Qianye woke up from his contemplation, and said with a smile: "I don't have anything on my mind, but when I saw the bleak scene of this willow tree in autumn and winter, I couldn't help but think of my old man, thinking that his old man was widowed in his early years, and now in such a twilight year, he has no son and half daughter by his side, and I don't know how to be sad in my heart." With that, he sighed softly.
Shang Wu tearfully heard this, and couldn't help lowering his head, speechless for a while. Although she wanted to comfort Qin Qianye in her heart, she thought about it for a long time, but she still didn't know where to start, so she had to stand there quietly. She didn't move, just because she was afraid of destroying the lonely atmosphere and aggravating Qin Qianye's sadness.
After a while, Shang Wuxian finally said: "Brother Qin, don't worry too much, although he has no children by his side, but with your grandson, it is a little comforting to think about it." She took Qin Qianye's hand, took the unique shyness of her daughter's family, and said softly: "I'm going back, can you send me?"
Qin Qianye raised his head, as if nothing had happened, and smiled lightly: "Well, I'll send you." ”
They walked side by side, whispering softly, like a pair of lovers in love, secretly tryst in this autumn morning, and strolling briskly through the woods by this beautiful lake.
Without the sentimentality just now, Shang Wuxian became happy, she pointed to the birds jumping on the tree, and asked east and west, as if there were endless questions, and kept asking Qin Qianye if the birds were telling some wonderful stories.
Qin Qianye naturally couldn't tell her that the so-called bird stories he told her before were all made up by himself, but as long as Shang Wuxian could be happy, he could only try his best to think of something interesting and tell her about it. He remembered the wonderful and absurd stories he told Shang Wuxian when he was a child, although there were many times when he didn't tell them well, but no matter what, Shang Wuxian would always listen carefully. No matter how sad she is, as long as she can hear his story, she will become happy. Thinking about it now, although everything was ridiculous at that time, I don't know how much joy it added.
Talking and laughing all the way, we arrived at the end of the west of the village.
As soon as he entered the village, he saw Shang Wuxian's second brother Shang Jie and Zhao Shanhe smiling and grinning, and as soon as he arrived, Zhao Shanhe immediately took Qin Qianye's hand, squeezed his eyebrows and smiled: "Qianye, congratulations, congratulations!"
This Zhao Shanhe is the son of Qin Yishan's sworn brother Zhao Hu, when Qin Yishan, Zhao Hu, and Shang Duzhi swore an oath of righteousness, Zhao Hu ranked third, Qin Qianye usually called him the third uncle, because of this relationship, so the children of the three families got closer, Zhao Shanhe usually played very well with Qin Qianye on weekdays, and he was righteous and bold, but he was a little not very serious, and he loved to make some jokes with others. So Qin Qianye saw Zhao Shanhe congratulating him, although he was inexplicable, he knew that he was used to laughing, and thought that he was trying to make fun of himself, so he deliberately ignored him at the moment. Seeing this, Zhao Shanhe naturally understood his thoughts, and hurriedly said: "Chiba, don't think that I want to make fun of you again, but this time it is really serious." ”
Seeing his serious expression, Qin Qianye couldn't help but believe it a little, but he was confused in his heart, and he really didn't know what it was.
Seeing Qin Qianye's confused appearance, the businessman Jie thought it was very interesting. He looked at Shang Wuxi, who was standing next to him with a puzzled face, and smiled happily: "Brother Qin, tell you a great event, you will definitely be happy." Just now, my grandfather hurriedly called my father to go, and when my father saw that my grandfather was in such a hurry, he thought that something was wrong, so he hurriedly ran over. Later, I found out that the eldest grandfather was originally here to discuss with him about your relationship with your sister. As soon as the grandfather said this, my father immediately agreed happily, and said that you are the son of my Uncle Yishan, and you should have settled it a long time ago. According to the meaning of the grandfather, he said that he was afraid that he would die soon, and he planned to let you marry in this Mid-Autumn Festival. Brother Qin, do you say this is a happy event. ”
This businessman is a big ghost, and he crackled a lot, but he also told the ins and outs of the matter clearly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran to grab Shang Wuxian's hand and smiled coquettishly.
When Chiba and Tearless heard the letter, they were both taken aback.
Qin Qianye didn't make a sound for a while, he didn't know whether he was happy or sad in his heart, Shang Wuxian had a deep affection for him over the years, he knew that he also had great affection for this gentle and lovely girl. It's a pity that Qin Qianye's heart at this time is turbulent because he wants to leave Taoyuan Village and break into the outside world, facing this girl who is very good to himself and pure as water, he can't even have the slightest greedy idea in his heart. And he has decided to leave this Taoyuan Village, to pass through the surrounding ten thousand mountains, it is really dangerous, difficult, even if he can get out of the mountain, he still doesn't know if he can come back, if this is the case, then it will not be a betrayal, but a tearless .......
He was thinking about it, but Zhao Shanhe saw that he looked strange, sometimes happy and sometimes worried, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and hurriedly asked: "Chiba, why don't you speak, don't you think it's too sudden?" It's nothing, sooner or later, the matter between you and your tearless sister has long been determined in the hearts of our whole village, and besides, only you can be worthy of your tearless sister!"
Qin Qianye woke up when he heard this, patted his head, turned around and smiled: "I, I'm fine, it's just that this thing is indeed a little sudden." ”
Shang Wu's tearful face here was already red with shame, and she didn't dare to look at Qin Qianye and them, she liked Qin Qianye in her heart, it was no longer a secret, it was just a girl's family, after all, she was embarrassed to say it, and now that she heard that her grandfather and father were in charge, even if what Qin Qianye said to her just now was true, she didn't dare to refuse. She pretended to be angry and patted Shang Jie's head, and said with a smile: "Look at you, you are more than ten years old, you are still like a child, don't be ashamed to die, and now you dare to make fun of the eldest sister, I'm afraid I don't want to live anymore." "Let's chase and fight.
Merchant Jie smiled as he fled: "You still say that I, I don't know whose face is red like fire now." In vain, I am still looking for you everywhere, I want to tell you about this quickly, I am afraid that you will always remember your big brother Qin in your heart. It's good that you're talking about me, and you don't have a conscience. After that, he ran to Qin Qianye again and said with a smile: "Brother Qin, from now on, you have to teach me martial arts well, and you can't shirk it this time." His big eyes were full of anticipation, and he looked at Qin Qianye happily.
Qin Qianye coughed lowly, although he was still smiling slightly at this time, anyone could see that he was smiling a little reluctantly, he didn't hide it, even the kid Shangjie could see his thoughts. Shang Jie was young and quick-talked, and asked a little strangely, "Brother Qin, don't you have anything else to worry about?"
Qin Qianye turned around, carried Shang Wuxian on his back, knocked on Shang Jie's head, and said with a smile: "Renjie, what do you little ghost know, no matter how nonsense you talk about, beware that I will never teach you martial arts again, I think it is better to ask your grandfather first, so as not to be deceived by you, haha." After that, he looked back at Shang Wuxian again, and said softly: "No tears, let's go back first, so as not to worry about Second Uncle Shang." ”
Shang Jie had a question, but he was afraid that Qin Qianye would really not teach him martial arts, so he had to keep his mouth shut, but he thought in his heart: "Brother Qin is really strange today, obviously my sister and I both like each other, how can I tell him this news is not very happy." ”
Zhao Shanhe also had the same question in his heart, but he was older after all, and he knew that Qin Qianye must have something in his heart, so he didn't dare to ask in front of Shang Wuxian, he took a few steps forward, deliberately coughed loudly, and said with a smile: "Sister Wuxi, I also congratulate you, I can marry such a good-looking girl as you, it is estimated that this guy Qianye must be happy, in fact, in the whole village, who doesn't know that you are the most suitable pair." He looked at Qin Qianye with envious eyes, deliberately showing some jealousy.
Shangjie also came over and said with a smile: "What Brother Zhao said is exact, I am happy that Brother Qin is my brother-in-law, haha." Oh, my father is still waiting for us, stop standing here, let's go home first. ”
"Oops", Merchant Jie was knocked by his sister again.
"Brother Zhao, help, they have already started to bully me together before they get married......" Shang Jie deliberately ran to the front with a strange scream, pulled up his long skirt without tears, and chased after him, "You little ghost, stop me, see if you dare to talk nonsense." There was a hearty laugh from Qin and Zhao from behind.
After seeing the two sisters and brothers running away for a distance, Zhao Shanhe hurried to Chiba's side and asked in a low voice, "Chiba, what's wrong with you today, is there something on your mind?"
Qin Qianye smiled and said, "Brother Dashan, don't be suspicious of whether you can do it, even if something happens, won't you know it in the future, haha." ”
Zhao Shanhe saw that he refused to speak, so he patted him hard, said "You kid!" and stopped asking.
