love you and me

Today Qingyuan wore a colorful silk skirt with wide shoulder straps, her shoulder-length hair was pulled up, a pair of silver earrings were worn on her ears, and she wore moderate makeup on her face.Ah Shui stood behind Qingyuan and looked at her in the makeup mirror, then turned around and walked a few steps away, walked to the door of the bedroom, leaned against the door frame, folded his arms around his chest, and kept pointing with one finger She kept her chin still looking at Qingyuan's back.

Qingyuan turned to her, stood up, and asked how she was.

"Looks like a newly married young woman. Very beautiful."

"Don't rush to change clothes at night, let me take a good look when I come back."

Ah Shui went to work in the company.Qing Yuanyuan stood at the gate of the community, waiting for Ye Chaoqun to drive to pick her up. They agreed to meet in the morning.

Chaoqun is a high school classmate of Qingyuan, who is now working in another city. He came to see Qingyuan today. One reason is that Qingyuan suddenly came out to him during an online chat not long ago, and the other reason is that he made a deal in the city of Qingyuan yesterday. For a single business, just wait for the specific signing contract this morning, and have to rush back before noon.In addition to the four years of separation between the university and Qingyuan, they have not seen each other for more than five years.

Chaoqun sent a message to Qingyuan, asking if the person in the white dress who had just walked out of the community gate was Qingyuan.

Qingyuan sent him a message back saying, no.

Chaoqun asked her again, is that the one with the long ponytail in the short-sleeved shirt and shorts?

Qingyuan still said no.

Qing Yuan dialed his phone and told him not to hide any more, but to come out immediately.

So Qingyuan saw a black car slowly peeking out from behind the bushes at a nearby intersection and driving in front of her.She stepped forward and watched him roll down the glass window. His fair face wearing a pair of brown sunglasses stared at her for a while, then opened the door and got out of the car, and opened the door on this side for her personally, slightly He bent down and made a gesture of invitation, and let her get into the car.

He took Qingyuan to the coffee shop where he just had breakfast.He ordered milk tea for Qingyuan, and coffee for himself.

"You know, some time ago I analyzed a potential stock. The more I thought about it, the more promising it became, so I sat back in front of the computer in the middle of the night and bought more shares. I also recommended a few friends. Recently, the test results showed that it It certainly didn’t disappoint us.”

"Also, do you know about the football match that just passed? I almost bought a plane ticket on impulse to watch it."

"Do you know who is sitting across from you right now?"

"I know, He Qingyuan, my deskmate in the third year of high school. I'm sorry, I just adjusted the wrong dialogue mode. Uh huh, let's start again."

"Qingyuan, you have changed a lot."

"You too."

"I remember you sitting next to me in the third year of high school, wearing a short ponytail all day long. Once I went to a restaurant with you, we both ordered noodles, and I finished it in only 10 minutes, but you spent a whole Go for half an hour. I also asked you a question, do you remember?"

"I remember. You asked me if I would eat more and more hungry. What you want to say is that if you eat so slowly like me, if you don't finish this meal, the next meal should be ready soon."

"I also remember that you used to have a small crew cut and a thin body. The baggy school uniform is not suitable for you. Why do you have long hair now, and you have become stronger and taller?"

"I used to be a very handsome person. Once we went hiking together in spring and rested in a small pavilion on the top of the mountain. I poured a cup of coffee I brought into the lid of the thermos cup and handed it to you. The rest Holding it in my hand, I looked up at the green hills in the distance, thinking, if only I had a cup of tea in my hand."

"I see that you suddenly lowered your head, whether you were about to cry."

"So you saw it. I didn't know why at the time, but I suddenly felt sad, as if there was a cloud of indifference in my chest, and I really wanted to cry. Hey, now I am no longer as sentimental as before."

"Whatever you talk to me online, no matter who you like, who you choose to be with, I'm sure you know how to make yourself happy, that's the most important thing for us."

"Thank you."

It was Chaoqun's first visit to this city, and he didn't know where to spend the rest of his time.He told Qingyuan that although it was a different city, it looked very similar to him, with high-rise buildings and endless streams.Hearing what he said, Qing Yuan wanted to take him to see the local places of interest, but the distance was too far and there was not enough time; as for the small commodity market and the antique market, they were crowded, and he would not go there; he wanted to only take him to the deep alley The weather was very hot; finally I chose to take him to listen to a small indoor performance of Kunqu opera, which happened to be next to a food and snack street.She still remembered that Chaoqun told her that he had a wish to be a gourmet, but he wondered if that wish had been forgotten by him now.

There is a small stage in the room. The top of the stage is a chicken cage roof, which is convenient for echoing. The accompaniment is mainly flute. The excerpt of "The Peony Pavilion" is being performed. There are about [-] or [-] people sitting under the stage, most of whom are middle-aged.

While the opera was still being sung, Chaoqun couldn't help but put his head next to Qingyuan's ear, and whispered there that Kunqu opera was outdated, every step of the movement was fixed, and the story of the performance was too long ago.Hearing him sigh, Qingyuan saw that his expression was also tired, and turned her head to continue watching the performance seriously, but she couldn't help thinking in her heart, is it outdated? Why doesn't she think so.

Qingyuan sat with Chaoqun in a snack bar beside the long and narrow pedestrian street, Chaoqun asked for chicken feet, Qingyuan only asked for a glass of purified water.Qingyuan saw that Chaoqun opened a backpack he carried with him before he was about to eat chicken feet, took out a wet wipe from it, took off the belt watch on one of his wrists, put it in his bag, and finally cleaned it. hands, officially started.Chaoqun said that the bird flu in his city was so bad in the previous stage that it took him so long to eat chicken again.

Coming out of the snack bar, it was getting closer to noon, and Chaoqun was about to send Qingyuan back to bid her farewell, but it was raining outside, not too big or too small, it was a rain of the sun.It was already hot outside, and when the sun and rain hit the ground, a slight white vapor was stirred up. Although it didn't have much cooling effect, it seemed to make people feel more comfortable.Qingyuan and Chaoqun stood side by side under the awning outside the store to watch the rain, but Chaoqun only stood there for a while, then suddenly remembered something, took out a black umbrella from his backpack, opened it, and stood alone in the rain Down.

He used his eyes to signal Qingyuan to look at him, and Qingyuan did follow his will to look at him.

Seeing that Qingyuan didn't say a word, he raised one foot by himself, and turned around in the rain with only one foot.

Qingyuan looked forward to seeing him staring at her, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, a dimple on one side of her cheek, and the corners of her eyes tending to be slender, she couldn't understand what he was waiting for her to discover for a while.

Qingyuan went to look at the checked shirt, black shorts, and lace-up leather shoes he was wearing, and finally saw the black umbrella in his hand, oh, now I understand.

"The umbrella in your hand is the umbrella held by the big Totoro in Hayao Miyazaki's animated movie "My Neighbor Totoro."

"By the way. It was specially brought back by a friend of my company when he went to Japan on a business trip."

When Qingyuan returned to her apartment on the first floor alone, she was thinking about the relationship between her and Chaoqun as friends. It was a feeling that she would not miss often after being separated, and that she could still trust and talk freely when they reunited; but she had indeed changed. , Chaoqun has also changed, everyone has changed into more appearances, and they still haven't lost the most important things when they were with each other. I think it's amazing that they can form a balanced state with each other.

When Ah Shui came back in the evening, he saw that Qingyuan had already removed her makeup and hair, and she was still wearing that colorful dress.

She stood with Qing Yuan on the outdoor balcony, and she casually gave Qing Yuan a lit cigarette.

Qing Yuan didn't smoke and rarely drank alcohol.Ah Shui smokes, but has no addiction.She told Qingyuan that she would smoke when she was lonely and when she was very tired, and when she met her companions, she liked to share cigarettes with each other.Qingyuan didn't have any cigarettes of his own to share with her, so he accepted what she handed over.

"Accompanies him to listen to "The Peony Pavilion" a few times today. He thinks her movements are fixed and the story is too old and outdated."

""Peony Pavilion", is it about a woman named Du Liniang who used to embroider in the embroidery room all day long, and when she was close to adulthood, she visited her back garden for the first time by chance, and then she had a dream when she went back, dreaming of herself It’s a story about getting a wishful man, love and happiness, a dream that ends, and after waking up, heartbroken and finally died young.”

"That's the beginning and the middle. Liu Mengmei is real, and she was resurrected later. In the end, the two of them got what they wanted."

"Do you remember the libretto in her?"

"I only remember the most familiar sentences."

"It turns out that the colorful flowers are blooming all over like this, and they are all given to the ruined wells, the ruins, the beautiful scenery, but the sky is a feast for the eyes. Whose house is flying in the morning, the clouds are rolling, the clouds are rolling, the clouds are rolling, the rain is wind, the smoke, the waves, the boats, and the Jinping people are so cheap at this time."

"It's because of you that you are as beautiful as a flower and your family is like a river, and the years are like water, so I searched all over the secluded boudoir for self-pity"

"It's not outdated. It's just that we are not the same as him."
