she says

Qiu Se has a new neighbor.

Early one morning, more than a dozen large trucks came from the moving company, and they stopped in front of the villa next door that had been idle for a long time, and the staff in blue uniforms carried the cardboard boxes off the truck one by one.

At that time, she was standing on the balcony, tired of being woken up, watching a group of people rushing in and out, secretly regretting the blurred peach blossom petals stepped on in front of the villa.

Ten days later, she met the new owner of the villa.

"Good evening." It was a very beautiful woman with twinkling eyes.It was only later that she realized that these were peach blossom eyes, which were naturally romantic and affectionate.

"Good evening." Qiu Se responded to her greeting gracefully.

The woman was lazily leaning against the balcony guardrail, with a smile on her face: "Before I came here, I had been thinking about what my new neighbor would be like, but I didn't expect it to be a little girl."

Qiu Se smiled: "I didn't expect to be a beautiful sister."

Obviously pleased by her words, the woman laughed wantonly, and her laughter startled the long peach blossoms on the branches.

After a long time, Qiu Se didn't know her name, Qin Huai.A Qinhuai song, the song is full of romance, the place where the prosperity of the Six Dynasties was buried.

After that, Qin Huai often invited Qiu Se to her home as a guest. She was a teacher at the nearby Academy of Fine Arts and lived alone.Qiuse hasn't seen her family yet. There are only two house-cleaning servants in the villa, which is as empty as Qiu's house.

At first, Qiu Se was worried about disturbing her, but later they got to know each other well, so they went by themselves diligently.

Their personalities are similar in nature, they are also perfectionists, and they are strict with details.

Every time the two meet, they seldom exchange pleasantries.Often one person sets up the cello on one side, the bow is strung, and the notes jump out one by one.Another person is holding a paintbrush and paint to smear on the white canvas, allowing the magnificent world under his brush to take shape little by little.

Music and art are interlinked to some extent, both are pursuing the ultimate aesthetic feeling.The former is auditory and the latter is visual.

She can understand the turbulent emotions in the ups and downs of her notes, and she can also see clearly her delicate thoughts hidden under the colors.

An excellent painter needs to be good at capturing fleeting inspiration, and also needs a good bosom friend.

"Qiu Se. Are you my muse?" Qin Huai often asked Qiu Se this sentence recently, and when he said it, his eyes were ambiguous, and peach blossoms were like faces.

"If you think so, I'd be happy." Qiu Se didn't deny that staying with her would be a good mood, even if sometimes, this pleasure wanders on the verge of danger.

She tried to search for Qin Huai's name on the Internet, and it turned out that a certain person was well-known and had won many awards at home and abroad, and reports would often flow out to promote her works.People in the circle say that she is a cutting-edge painter with both talent and beauty in the art world.

The latest report on the Internet is that a week before Qin Huai moved, her solo exhibition in Paris was a great success, attracting the attention and praise of domestic and foreign media.

In the photo, she was wearing a wine-red evening dress with a high bun, cold and aloof.

Afterwards, Qiu Se asked her about this matter, but what she got in return was half-truth and half-fake jokes from Painter Qin: "Qiu Se, I don't understand these things as clearly as you do."

When Qin Huai said this, Qiu Se was adding rosin to the bow of her cello.At the end of the month, she will go to Vienna with the school team to perform, one recital and one solo.

After half a month, Qiu Se's performance ended. In more than 30 art programs, her solo won the first place in the gold award, with a lot of money.

After leaving the concert hall, she called the busy couple who hadn't seen each other for several months, and informed them of her performance, in exchange for a few words of congratulations from them.In less than 1 minute of overseas calls, I spent less time talking with my daughter than with my subordinate clients.Fortunately, she doesn't mind either.

"Qin, I won the gold medal." Before boarding the plane to return home, she sent a text message to Qin Huai, and then turned off her phone and went through the security check.

It was already late at night when she returned home.

Standing alone on the steps in front of Qiu's villa, he seemed to be waiting for someone.When she approached, Qin Huai gave her a handful of forget-me-nots: "Congratulations."

Qiu Se was wearing a black long-sleeved shirt and white waisted trousers. Her hair was slightly curly, her lips were bright red, and her eyes were cold and stubborn.The charm of women and the aura of girls are mixed together, which is very beautiful.

"Thank you." Qiu Se nodded and responded to her congratulatory message.

"Are you tired?" Qin Huai took her hand and led her towards his villa: "I have prepared a small gift for you, and I will congratulate you on your triumphant return."

Qiu Se followed her obediently, her eyes lingering on her curvy and beautiful back, thinking in her heart how long this woman had been waiting for her. From this evening dress, she obviously left from a banquet.

It's just that the flowers are in full bloom and the ceremony is ready, she has always been prepared.

The gift Qin Huai gave her was a long skirt, the main colors were light blue and light white, the designer was well-known in the industry.

"Do you know my size?" Qiu Se really likes the blue color, Qin Huai has a heart for her, and secretly remembers all the things he mentioned in the past.

Qin Huai is pouring red wine. The wine is a collection given to her by the owner of a French winery. It has a long history and pure taste.

Holding a glass of wine, she walked over, handed one of the glasses to Qiu Se, and motioned for her to clink the glasses: "I'll tell you after I drink it, how do I know?"

After Qiu Se took a few sips, Qin Huai smiled in satisfaction, put his arms around her soft and boneless waist, and stroked it lightly: "I said visually, do you believe it? Sure enough, the size is not worse than the predicted size."

The atmosphere was hazy and ambiguous, Qiu Se raised the corners of her eyes, with a bit of wildness, she hugged Qin Huai's waist back, and murmured: "It feels good."

Qin Huai sneered, took a step back, and slowly took off the evening dress on his body. The layers of clothes were like falling petals, revealing the freshest flower heart.

"Qiu Se."

Just one sound swallowed Qiu Se's reason, the wine glass fell, she kissed Qin Huai's lips, the two stumbled all the way hugging each other, and finally fell on the bed.

"What's the matter?" Qin Huai took off Qiu Se's shirt, and suddenly saw a scar on the side of her left wrist. The white scar was long and deep.No wonder she wears long sleeves even in summer.She felt distressed, and put it on her lips and kissed it lightly.

Tired by her, Qiu Se hid for a while: "It's a long story."

Qin Huai was smart, so he didn't ask any further questions. He wrapped his whole body around her and breathed like blue: "Then tell me slowly later. Let's do something interesting."

Qiu Se laughed: "Are you courting?"

At this moment, they only have desire in their eyes, like a beast, exercising the most primitive instinct.

In September, Qinhuai’s gallery opened, and every day there was a flood of customers, students from the Academy of Fine Arts, artists from afar, and arty rich people.She only works as a hands-off shopkeeper, and only comes to visit occasionally.

One day, she attended a private art exhibition that must be held in the gallery at the end of every month.

"Miss Qin, I have long admired you." When a man in his 40s with white temples called her accurately, Qin Huai's sixth sense made her guess the identity of the other party immediately: "Hello."

"This is my business card. If Ms. Qin has time someday, I hope to talk to you." The man didn't get angry, and handed over a business card, "Qiu Zhen".

Qin Huai smiled, and quietly put the business card into her bag. This was the first time she met Qiu Se's father.It can't be called a surprise. According to the Qiu family's connections, she didn't think how long the relationship between the two could be kept secret.It's just that she didn't expect that he would come in person or propose an invitation on her territory.Obviously everyone is a neighbor, and we can meet each other as soon as we go out.Obviously, Qiu Se didn't know anything about today's affairs.

She will take time soon, and three days later, she will see Qiu Zhen again. He also brought a graceful and luxurious woman with him on this trip, who is obviously his wife, Qiu Se's mother.

"Miss Qin, we already know about your relationship with Sese." It was Qiu's mother who spoke. Qiuzhen didn't want to deal with women's affairs, but was obliged to be present to understand everything.

Qin Huai hesitated for a long time, and couldn't figure out how to address the other party more appropriately, so he remained silent.But I still feel a little nervous in my heart. After all, they are Qiu Se's family.

"We are not enlightened parents, but we never thought of interfering with the person Thurse likes, whether it is a man or a woman. The Qiu family has enough ability to protect her for the rest of her life. We only want her to be happy." Qiu's mother has an aura that only a high-ranking person who has held great power for a long time has.

Qin Huai nodded cooperatively. She knew that she was responsible for listening now.

"We have investigated your past. To be honest, a person like you shouldn't have appeared around Thurse. But after she knew these things, she was still willing to let you get close. We had no choice but to let her."

Qin Huai's expression changed suddenly, her fingertips trembled, and she interrupted her words: "My past?"

Qiu's mother showed compassion, and replied truthfully: "We all know the whole past before you came to this city."

"Including her?" Qin Huai felt that his flesh and blood were cold at this moment, and he completely forgot how to breathe.

"Yes, not long after you contacted. She knew."

Qin Huai stared at Qiu's mother suddenly, as if to see the truth in her words, and finally became depressed, his eyes dropped.

Qiu Mu and Qiu Zhen looked at each other, and finally sighed: "As compensation, I will tell you a past story, a past story related to Sese."

……

Qiu Se used to have a twin sister named Qiu Sheng.

The two have exactly the same appearance, but completely different personalities.

My elder sister has been the proud daughter of heaven since she was a child, gentle and beautiful, with decent speech and behavior, while my younger sister was weak and sickly, melancholy and silent since childhood.Comparing the two, most people will pay more attention to their sister.

The elder sister loves the younger sister very much, and the degree of care and love is even more meticulous than that of the biological parents.As for the depressed younger sister, only in front of her elder sister would she show her face for a moment.

When my sister was 13 years old, she had a high fever, which was fatal to her weak constitution.

The doctor arrived in time for treatment, and her fever slowly subsided.It's just that she fell into a coma and couldn't wake up.The doctor told the elder sister that if the younger sister did not wake up by the third day, she would remain comatose.

The elder sister stood by her bed, calling her nickname over and over again: "Thurse, my elder sister will give you my life, will you wake up?"

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but after my elder sister said this, my younger sister gradually regained consciousness. Within half a year after she was discharged from the hospital, the root cause of her disease seemed to have disappeared. She was healthy like a normal person and was no longer burdened by illness.I am also gradually willing to communicate with strangers and meet some friends of the same age.

But those words were like a curse, after many years, the retribution fell on my sister.

That year, my elder sister was 15 years old. At the junior high school graduation party, a group of people went to the beach to have a barbecue. She, who was always good at water, dived into the deep sea and drowned in the sea.

Afterwards, her classmate told her younger sister: "Qiu Sheng didn't intend to go into the water, but a classmate played a prank by hiding her necklace and lying to her that the necklace was thrown in the sea.

We didn't expect that she would go on regardless, and go further and further away. By the time we realized it, it was too late to save her.

That person went crazy after your sister's accident and basically became half a cripple.

Qiu Se, forgive us. "

She can forgive these people, but who will forgive her?Damn that prank classmate, is she innocent?The necklace that made my sister insist on going into the sea was a gift from her.

I can't figure out whether everything is God's will, and I have to pay it back after all.

After her sister's death, the younger sister was so stimulated that she was unable to speak.She regarded herself as one of the murderers who killed her sister and suffered day and night.

She was sick again, this time of the heart, and there was no cure.

She chose the most extreme way to punish herself. One night, she slashed her left wrist so hard that the bones were deep enough.If it wasn't for the servants at home who smelled blood and sent her to the hospital in time, her life might have been ruined that night.

When she woke up from the hospital bed, Qiu's mother and Qiu's father were all there.Regardless of her weak body, Qiu's mother slapped her hard with all her strength. Her mouth was full of blood, her ears were buzzing, and she suddenly felt the fear of the rest of her life.

Qiu's mother hugged her and cried forbearance: "This is beating on behalf of your sister. If Shengsheng knows that you are looking for death for her, she will be heartbroken."

"Sister, she... is reluctant to hit me." This was the first sentence she said after a few months of aphasia. "I will replace my sister and live on."

From then on, she never mentioned her sister again, and even really lived herself like her.

"Miss Qin, I'm done." What Qiu Se lost was her sister, and what Qiu's mother suffered was the loss of her daughter.After telling these past events, she burst into tears.

At this moment, Qin Huai's mood was shock and pity, she didn't know that Qiu Se was carrying such a past.No wonder when I saw her for the first time, she was obviously smiling, but it made people feel that she was so lonely, as if you just stepped forward to hug her, and she would cry in your arms.

Qiu Zhen, who had been silent all this time, spoke at this moment: "This child has always regarded himself as the original sin of killing his sister, and has kept his feelings closed all these years.

Miss Qin, it is indeed selfish for us to talk to you.But our purpose should be the same, and we all hope that Thurse can live a good life.

She's been lost for too long because of her sister, and I hope you're the one to bring her out.

No matter how you lived in the past or what kind of person you were, as long as you are sincere to her, we will not go into it further.

Please, treat my daughter well.This is a request from a father. "

At this moment, Qin Huai's cell phone vibrated, it was Qiu Se's text message: Where are you?Shall we have dinner together?

She replied: good.

Then he got up and bowed deeply to the two: "Thank you for your hospitality, I hope we can become a family soon."

Even if the next second is the end of the world, she just wants to go back to Qiu Se's side immediately.

"Why did you come back so late?" Qiu Se waited for her to go home in Qinhuai's villa as usual.Since confirming their relationship, she rarely went back to Qiu's house.

Qin Huai didn't answer her, but pressed her lips with his fingertips, and said: "I'm going to ask you a question now, you can only nod, not shake your head."

Although Qiu Se was puzzled, she still nodded sensibly.

Qin Huai smiled slightly, his peach blossom eyes were particularly touching: "I want you to be my wife, is that okay?"

Qiu Se was stunned for a long time, then nodded heavily, tears streaming down her face.

postscript:

"You know I don't know much about art, but you still took me to see the art exhibition." I complained to the culprit who interrupted my vacation.

She has a good temper and patiently explained to me: "Your sensitivity to color is much higher than ordinary people. I heard what you said last time when you commented on other people's works. I want to hear you analyze it again. You just Come play with me."

"It's just nonsense." I rolled my eyes. As an outstanding young man with literary literacy, nonsense is a basic skill, but who can tell the truth?

She didn't change her face, and continued: "The owner of the gallery is a beautiful woman, and I can only meet a few times during the art exhibition. Moreover, I have a relationship with her, so I can introduce you to each other."

I was instantly persuaded, and my gossiping heart ignited: "What's the relationship?"

She blinked ambiguously: "You guess." It's really irresponsible for a married woman to say that.

"Look, people are coming." She patted my shoulder and motioned me to look up.

A woman walked towards us, "Qin, this is my friend."

That's right, Qiu Se and I met at a concert a few months ago. Let alone the twists and turns during the period, we left each other on the phone and became friends because of some coincidences.

I smiled at the visitor: "Hello, Miss Qin."

The visitor looked deeply at me, looked at me for a long time, and replied, "Welcome."

"You should congratulate our newlyweds." Qiu Se said on the sidelines, stretching out her palm to ask for a congratulatory gift.

"It turns out that the lover you mentioned earlier was her." I laughed, "You even made such a detour to bring me here. Half a month later, I personally delivered the congratulatory gift to the house."

Qin Huai said: "Thurse, I met your friends just now, they are looking for you, do you want to go over and say hello. I'll entertain this friend of yours."

She glanced at me: "Wait a minute, I'll come and find you in a while."

"Go ahead, I'll chat with this pretty sister." Whether it's public or private, I want to be alone with Qin Huai.

If there is any word in this world that can scare me, then these four words that are almost used by people are definitely the only one.

Qin Huai said to me, "Long time no see."

I never thought that I would meet an old friend here, an old friend who has a deep relationship with me.

She was first brought into the circle a few years ago.At that time she was not Qin Huai, but a girl named Jiang Nan.Because we share a common circle, we don't see each other when we look up and see each other when we look down. After going back and forth, we are considered acquaintances, but our friendship is mediocre.

I also forgot the reason why I really got to know each other back then, but now few people know that my appreciation of art is all from being in the ear with her in those years.

She once said something similar to Qiu Se to me: "You are as sensitive to beauty as a professional artist."

Yeah?Until now I have not understood the meaning of this sentence.

At that time, there were rumors in the circle that Jiangnan's family was poor and could not support his daughter's expenses of studying fine arts and going to the Academy of Fine Arts.She fell in love with a rich woman who had been raising her since she was 15 and allowing her to study fine arts.

There is no giving without reason, and there is no receiving without reason.In this transaction, no one is dirtier than the other.

The truth does not prevent me from looking forward to her. She is a talented person and will definitely become a famous and crowned painter in the future.

Our connection was suddenly cut off one day.

Back then, the group of people went and scattered, drunk and dreaming, some people appeared, some people disappeared, and few people really cared about a person's life or death.

And I am not that exception.

Afterwards, I also inadvertently heard about her from others. I heard that she didn't want to live such an embarrassing life anymore, so she gave up her studies and ran away alone.The woman who raised her was furious, and people on both sides of the road asked for her whereabouts.Of course, she seemed to have evaporated, and no one saw her again.

It's not an unexpected ending, I believe she can protect herself well.

Sure enough, she is now standing in front of me peacefully, has a great reputation, has fulfilled her dreams, and has a lover. It can be said that she is completely different from her previous situation.

It's just that she is no longer Jiang Nan, but Qin Huai.

"Happy wedding." I wish her sincerely.

"Thank you." After she finished speaking, she remained silent.

"Qin Huai, don't worry, I'm just a friend that Qiu Se met by chance." I laughed, everyone is a smart person, there are a lot of words, let's stop.

She seemed to feel something, and patted me on the shoulder: "I will come here often in the future, I am very welcome."

I remembered that I walked into her studio for the first time that day and commented on her paintings seriously. Afterwards, she patted me on the shoulder in the same way and said to me: "I will come here often in the future. I'm very welcome." After that day, our relationship gradually improved.

I laughed: "I must be entertained by Painter Qin himself when I come."

"What are you talking about?" Qiu Se, who was sent away, went back and forth, angrily said to Qin Huai: "Where are there friends, you lied to me."

"Huh? Obviously they were still there just now." Qin Huai thought about it pretending to be puzzled, and his acting skills were excellent.

And I have quietly left at this time. From the moment I entered this gallery and saw the first painting, I knew that Jiangnan was here, and it was no longer her.

Half a month later, Qiu Se received a wedding gift from a friend as scheduled, which was a box of peach blossom cakes from the south.There are two words of congratulations written on the box: I don't know the old dreams of Jiangnan, but I only see Qin Huai's newly married.

This year, the peach blossoms on the trees in the south of the Yangtze River are particularly strong.

The author has something to say: The source of the protagonist's name is a few poems.

"The day when the peach and plum blossoms bloom in the spring breeze, and the autumn rain when the leaves of the sycamore tree fall."

——Tang Bai Juyi "Song of Everlasting Regret"

"The beautiful land in the south of the Yangtze River, Jinling Emperor State.

Winding with green water, passing Zhulou far away.

The flying scorpion clips the road, and the Yang Yang shades the imperial ditch.

Condensed wings and high cover, stacked drums to send Huaqi.

Dedicated Yuntai table, fame can be received. "

——Xiao Qi·Xie Tiao's "Song of Entering the Dynasty"

"Smoky cage, cold water, moon cage and sand, mooring Qinhuai at night, near the restaurant.

Business women do not know the hatred of subjugation, and they still sing backyard flowers across the river. "

——Tang Du Mu "Parking in the Qinhuai River"

No matter how beautiful the peach blossoms are, what is the use if you are not there?
