drifting clouds sinking sea

"When you were young, you had a stubborn temper." Hua Ruling led Yuan Suiyun around the Peach Blossom Castle, "Your mother used to you, and there is no place in Peach Blossom Castle that you haven't made a fuss about. Do you still remember?" Don’t remember that sycamore tree? When you were a child, you looked like you were four years old. You climbed up to the branches, one foot above the ground, so scared that when I went to pick you up, my sleeves were cut open by the camellia branches below. At that time, your mother was still there, scolding me for a long time, I listened to the scolding, forgot about you, and let you escape."

"I still have such a naughty time, I don't remember." Yuan Suiyun smiled and touched the trunk of the tree, "But my mother must have scolded me too."

"You went to your sister-in-law's house, thanks to your good in-laws being there." Hua Ruling clapped his hands, "Your sister-in-law's cousin, your best friend at that time, Xu Zhi, You got the first prize, and now in Hanlin, your second brother said it was a good material, but they also said a few days ago that they invited you to the capital to enjoy the flowers, and it was an imported product."

"Really? It must be an interesting flower that I haven't seen before." For the first time, Yuan Suiyun truly felt the care Huamanlou received. "Third brother, they are doing well recently, right?"

"They are rushing back... Qitong, your body..." Yuan Suiyun felt a little sour when he heard that Hua Ruling tried his best to avoid his current situation.

"Don't talk about it, do you still remember? It's this pond. You said you wanted to grow lotus. Your fifth brother took you to sneak out and went to the flower garden to pick lotus. In the end, you and your fifth brother got separated... Wutong was so frightened that he ran back crying, only to see you falling asleep in Santong's arms. You don't know Wutong's expression, hahahaha, crying and laughing, his face twisted to the point where his mouth is crooked." Hua Ruling smiled, "You have been good since you were a child. You never cry or make trouble. Everyone is smiling. Your mother likes to tease Wutong and Liutong that someone is going to abduct you, and they have been careful about it." Staring at you."

"Fifth Brother and the others have always cared about me." Yuan Suiyun responded, swallowing the blood from his throat.

"Your sister-in-law Liu was jealous back then. When Liu Tong only had a piece of candy in his hand when he was young, he always secretly stuffed it into your mouth." Hua Ruling smiled again remembering these funny stories between her sons, but there was still something hidden in her voice. Sadly, "You still smile very happily every time you see your sister-in-law pulling your sixth brother's ear."

This is the first time Yuan Suiyun has heard of such an experience of getting along with each other. As the young owner of Wuzheng Villa, this is a joy that he has never had before, playing tricks on each other but being intimate.If only I had a brother before, even without them, I can stand up again, at least, after being blind, I am not the only one struggling, and my father will not put everything on me even more heavily In the end, he lost his only relative.

"You have been troublesome since you were a child, but you became quiet when you grew up." Hua Ruling paused and changed the subject, "Where did you go with Lu Xiaofeng last time?"

"Go..." The fishy sweetness welled up in his throat again, Yuan Suiyun covered his mouth.

"Qitong, let's go back and drink some water first." Hua Ruling carefully supported Yuan Suiyun.

"Let me walk with you again." Yuan Suiyun swallowed the blood, "Fortunately, tell me about when I was young, I can't even remember."

It was late spring, the wind carried the warmth of the sun, but it made Yuan Suiyun's blood-losing body feel chilly, crawling up his spine like a snake.

"Okay, let's go again, let's go to the plum garden, your mother likes that garden the most." Hua Ruling's voice was calm, but Yuan Suiyun could hear the suppressed crying.

Yuan Suiyun didn't speak, so what else could he say? The Bat Boy can tell lies that stir up the entire arena, he can tell people's hearts, and he can say high-sounding scenes, but in the face of a son who really cares for him The death of the grieving father, he really didn't know how to comfort him.

Yuan Suiyun thought of Hua Ruling's fear at first when he heard that he vomited blood, and thought of Hua Ruling's hearing that he would not live for five days, and there were 37 doctors invited by the Hua family.They were so unwilling to admit that Hua Manlou's life was not long, but they had to accept this fact.

But he couldn't even say a word of comfort.

It would be great if I was that gentle, funny, considerate and open-minded Huamanlou, at least Hua Ruling would not need to comfort herself.

If it was the real Huamanlou, things wouldn't have turned out like this.

Yuan Suiyun accompanied Hua Ruling to the plum garden. Even in April, when the spring fragrance is exhausted, the courtyard still has the long-lasting fragrance of plum blossoms, rich wintersweet, light green calyx, and all kinds of fragrances are mixed together, permeating the air. in the mind of any visitor.

"Every winter, you always lie on the bed, and occasionally get up early just for the fragrance of plum blossoms in the courtyard." Hua Ruling stroked a strong and slanting plum tree, "It's really a gift of flowers to Buddha, and everyone in the family can receive your praise." Put the plum blossom branches in front of the window. It’s like this every Chinese New Year, and these plum trees are also afraid of you.”

"It's always a good thing to fall asleep with the fragrance of a room." Yuan Suiyun never thought that Huamanlou would be so mischievous, and he was really envious.The blindness of the sole heir of a family and the blindness of the youngest son of a family are two completely different things.

"Your mother must miss you too..." Hua Ruling patted the tree trunk, "I've become a bad old man, your mother doesn't want to see me, so go and accompany her for me first."

"Okay, I'll go and tell my mother that you don't want to see her, and my mother will come to see you at night." Yuan Suiyun tried his best to make Hua Ruling happy.

"That's fine...for so many years, your mother hasn't come to see me once. When you see her and tell her, I miss her, and ask her if she forgives me..." Hua Ruling finally stopped. Can hold back, choked up.

When Yuan Suiyun heard the sound of water droplets falling to the ground, he weighed heavily on his heart.He had heard many cries, and most of those cries were accompanied by curses.He always thought that he didn't care about it long ago, but the dull pain in his heart told him clearly how heavy those real tears were.

"Don't cry," Yuan Suiyun said dryly in a hoarse voice, "I have helped so many people in this life, I will definitely not go to hell, and I will be your son again in the next life."

It is true that Hua Manlou will not go to hell, but Yuan Suiyun has been struggling in hell.

But when facing Hua Ruling's tears, Yuan Suiyun could only say this, saying that now he also expects that good people will be rewarded.

Perhaps, Hua Manlou was the one left behind, and Yuan Suiyun had already sunk into the cold seabed.

"Come on, you caused me endless troubles when I was young in this life." Hua Ruling wiped the corners of her eyes, "How much trouble I have had in this life, you still make me less trouble in the next life."

"This son can't be sure," Yuan Suiyun felt relieved when he heard his voice slow down, "Maybe he will rely on you again in his next life."

"Yeah, who can say for sure..." Hua Ruling shook her head, "Okay, just hang out with me, you haven't had much time to come back these years..."

I'm afraid I won't be able to come back.

Yuan Suiyun knew that those unfinished words were the pain in Hua Ruling's heart.Yuan Suiyun didn't say anything, just quietly walked slowly in Peach Blossom Castle with Hua Ruling.

Hua Ruling occasionally talked about the lively past with Yuan Suiyun.

Yuan Suiyun listened to the footsteps of the servants coming and going, and the Peach Blossom Castle seemed to be as lively as Hua Ruling remembered, but apart from Hua Santong and Hua Wutong's family members, only Hua Ruling's voice was left in Peach Blossom Castle .

Peach Blossom Fort, the flowers are like Lingling, as if abandoned by time, they are constantly lost.

Yuan Suiyun heard the oldness in Hua Ruling's still loud voice.

The white-haired man sends the black-haired man.

Such pain will be buried by time, but it will not be diluted by time.

If there is a next time, I will live a good life, at least until those who care about Huamanlou are gone.

Yuan Suiyun accompanied Hua Ruling after dinner before returning to the room, but there was a familiar smell hidden in the supposedly empty room, and the sound of the wick burning.

"Lu Xiaofeng, you come to say goodbye." Yuan Suiyun guessed the reason for Lu Xiaofeng's visit. In the end, he is not his own Lu Xiaofeng. Although his friend's death touched him, he was not heartbroken.Lu Xiaofeng has Lu Xiaofeng's life, but it is no longer related to Huamanlou and Yuan Suiyun.

Lu Xiaofeng moved uncomfortably: "The matter of Jinpeng Dynasty is not over yet."

"You really don't have to wait with me to die," Yuan Suiyun seemed to hear "Seven Children" called by the last Lu Xiaofeng in the last life in Yuan Suiyun's ears, "Let's go."

He is not him, Yuan Suiyun knows, but still can't see through.

"Qitong, I don't want to see you leave." Lu Xiaofeng's voice suddenly overlapped with the pain in the previous life when he knew Yuan Suiyun's death was approaching.

"Lu Xiaofeng, you'd better go." No matter how late it is, maybe I won't be able to tell the difference again.

Yuan Suiyun listened quietly to the sound of Lu Xiaofeng's leaving footsteps.

He has heard many kinds of Lu Xiaofeng's footsteps, some are apologetic when he was involved in Lu Xiaofeng's troubles, some are relaxed, happy and slightly depressed when he is teased by him, some are depressed when he is entangled in Fengyue, and he can rely on himself The panic in the near future, the joy of being together, the heaviness of knowing that I will die soon, and the final relief.

But it was different at this time, they were just friends, his friend's departure slowed down his pace, but he still went on firmly, leaving the past and heading for the next unknown and thrilling journey.

"Lu Xiaofeng, have a good journey." Yuan Suiyun sent his blessings in a low voice.

Yuan Suiyun stayed at Hua's house, and many people who cared about Huamanlou were rushing back.

The symptoms of vomiting blood became more and more serious, and the drowsiness caused by ischemia became longer and longer. Yuan Suiyun didn't feel any fluctuations in his heart. His world was always in darkness, and even death seemed to make no difference.

Maybe I still have a chance to see these family members and Lu Xiaofeng again.

Yuan Suiyun had some expectations.
