The wind is blowing

"Fei Liu! Fei Liu! Fei Liu!"

Early in the morning, a series of shouts had already started to ring out in Su's house.Fei Liu was so disturbed by the yelling that he ran out of the house, picked up the bird cage hanging in the corridor and wanted to throw it far away.

"Fei Liu, don't throw it."

Mei Changsu, who was also woken up in his outer clothes, came out of the room, saw Fei Liu's movements, and hurriedly stopped him.

"Noisy, annoying!"

Inside the cage was a just-adult starling, with black hairs and a bright yellow mouth, which was still glowing blue-green when exposed to the sun.

A few days ago, Lin Chen took Fei Liu out to play, and he didn't know where he went. When he came back, Fei Liu had this thing in his hand.

At first, everyone gathered in front of the cage with great interest to teach the starling to speak, not knowing whether the starling was too stupid or too smart, so they learned to be called Feiliu after they bought it.And besides Fei Liu calling it, no one else would pay attention to calling it.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the name of this starling again.Who knows what Feiliu thought, when he named a starling Pigeon, Li Gang and Zhen Ping didn't want to change the name for it, but after eating a lot of their corn, the starling still only recognizes the name Pigeon .This made Li Gang and Zhen Ping have to say with a smile: This starling and Fei Liu are the ones on the same path.

"It just likes you."

Smiling, he took the cage and hung it back up again. Mei Changsu conjured up a handful of corn kernels out of nowhere and began to feed the birds.

"Look, Feiliu, he is hungry, and he is asking you to feed him."

Fei Liu took Mei Changsu and handed over the remaining corn kernels, taking over the action of the other party.

After breakfast, Mei Changsu took a walk in the yard to digest food. Tong Lu came to report the latest situation as a routine, and only the last news made Mei Changsu show some emotion.

Xiao Jingrui was leaving Beijing for Southern Chu.

The matter of Jingrui has always been a sore spot in Mei Changsu's heart, and now that the other party is about to leave, he has to go and see it off... no matter what the other party's attitude is.

At the end of the afternoon, two figures, one in front and one behind, rode horses and left the gate of the city at high speed.Not long after, Mei Changsu and Li Gang, who had already been waiting in a pavilion outside the city, saw Xiao Jingrui and the others.It's just that behind the two streams of smoke and dust, there is still a small tail hanging in the distance.

"Jingrui! Jingrui, wait a minute!"

At this time, the other person accompanying Xiao Jingrui seemed to be in a hurry, and kept calling:

"Big brother, big brother, let's go."

Xiao Jingrui raised his left hand, made a comforting gesture, not only did not continue walking, but stopped and got off the horse.

"Big brother!"

Feeling guilty, Yu Wennian yelled again in a trembling voice.

"Nian Nian, that's my friend, he called me, and I heard it too, how can I ignore it?"

"But... you promised..."

"Don't worry, I promise to go back with you and I will definitely go. This is not an escape. My friend is here to see you off. What are you afraid of?"

In just these two or three sentences, Yan Yujin had already rushed to the front, looking dusty, and his clothes were not as glamorous as before.After throwing his saddle off his horse, he rushed straight to Xiao Jingrui, grabbed his arm and asked:

"Jingrui, where are you going?"

Xiao Jingrui answered four words without any concealment:

"Great Chuying Capital."

"Jing Rui!"

"Niannian received a letter saying that her father was seriously ill and wanted...wanted to see me...my mother also agreed, so I should go and visit if it's reasonable."

Yan Yujin originally came here to persuade him to stay, but when he heard the reason, he had nothing to say, and his hand that was holding Xiao Jingrui's arm loosened involuntarily.But after staying for a while, he was worried after all, and asked again:

"Then you will come back?"

Xiao Jingrui lowered his eyes, a trace of bitterness quickly flashed across his face.

"My mother is still there, so there is no reason why she will never come back."

His tone of voice was light, but Yan Yujin heard it in his ears, but felt sore in his heart.It's just that Xiao Jingrui was able to remain calm, so he became agitated for no reason, so he calmed down and said after a long time:

"Jingrui, after that day, I have been wanting to have a good chat with you, but the timing is always wrong. Since you are leaving now, you must say what you have to say. Jingrui, you really don't need to pay too much attention to some things, after all It's over, it has nothing to do with you..."

"Okay Yujin, needless to say, I know what you mean. It's just... I can't say that it has nothing to do with me. My father, my mother, this is a constant relationship, not to mention the family relationship for many years , years of kindness, all this is not to be torn apart by uncovering the truth..."

"Jing Rui..."

"I understand that you are trying to persuade me to be more open. You hope that I will still be Xiao Jingrui from before. But Yujin, I really can't do this. For me, in just one night, everything around me has completely changed. Since everything has changed, how can I not be the same? So whether I like it or not, Xiao Jingrui is no longer the Xiao Jingrui he used to be, and I can only disappoint you."

Yan Yujin took a deep breath, took a step forward, firmly grasped Xiao Jingrui's shoulders with both hands, and said word by word:

"Yes, I do hope you are still the same. But if you can't do it, so what? We grew up together, anyway, you have been changing, from the chubby little man you used to be to the now Gao Youjun; from An Jingjing who doesn't like to talk, he will follow Xie Bi to spit on me. I don't mind if you continue to change, anyway, no matter how you change, you are still Xiao Jingrui! So listen to me, no matter what Wherever you go, you must remember me, if you dare to forget, I will never forgive you, understand?"

When he said the last sentence, his voice was a little hoarse, his eye circles were already red, and the hand on Xiao Jingrui's shoulder was pressed so hard that his fingers hurt.His words were not long, but no one would doubt the sincerity, calmness and warmth contained in the words.

Xiao Jingrui lowered his head, his eyes were a little wet, even Yu Wennian, who was watching, couldn't help turning his face away, and quietly wiped the corners of his eyes with his fingertips.

"Okay, now you can go wherever you want, anyway, you used to run everywhere, but Da Chu is far away, you have to take care."

Yan Yujin sniffed, took a step back, and continued:

"If you have anything to do, remember to write to me. I... I will wait for you to come back."

Xiao Jingrui hummed and raised his head.The two stared at each other, both trying to smile at the same time.

"Brother, shall we go?"

Yu Wennian walked over rubbing his red eyes, and took his brother's sleeve.

Xiao Jingrui and Yan Yujin raised their arms at the same time and hugged each other tightly.

"Get on the horse, I'll watch you go. Be careful on the road..."

Yan Yujin was trying to say his last farewell with a forced smile, but his voice suddenly stopped, and his eyes fell somewhere behind Xiao Jingrui, with a strange expression on his face.

Xiao Jingrui followed his gaze, and when he saw who it was, he was also taken aback for a moment, but after a while, he calmly raised his feet.

Mei Changsu picked up the silver jug ​​on the stone table, filled a glass full of sake, and handed it over.

"It's a long way to go, let's have a farewell with a glass of wine, I wish you a safe journey."

Xiao Jingrui took the wine glass, raised his head and drank it down, and finally cupped his hands and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Su, for seeing you off. I will take my leave."

Mei Changsu watched the young man turn around, and waited until he reached the edge of the pavilion before asking softly:

"Jingrui, why don't you hate me?"

Xiao Jingrui paused and remained silent for a moment, then turned to look at him and replied:

"What do I hate you for? My mother's past was not caused by you; my birth was not arranged by you. Xie... Xie Hou's unrighteous actions were all done by himself... It makes me feel extremely painful Yes, it is the truth itself, not the hand that uncovered the truth. What happened back then has nothing to do with you, and I will not make you responsible for the wrong things done by others."

"However, I had the ability to keep the truth covered up, but I let it explode, and it exploded so violently, I didn't consider your feelings at all, nor did I consider the friendship between you and me. You, for this, There should be some complaints to some extent, right?"

Xiao Jingrui shook his head, smiled sadly and said:

"To be honest, I was very sad when you did this. But I am not a self-righteous child after all. I know that people always have trade-offs. You took what you think is important and abandoned me. This is just your choice. I It's impossible to hate you because you didn't choose me, after all...you don't have the responsibility and obligation to put me first, even if I once wished that, I can't force it."

Mei Changsu originally thought that Xiao Jingrui would blame him to some extent, but he finally found that he had underestimated the child's tolerance.

Mei Changsu took a step forward, looking softly at the young man's face.

"Jingrui, you are the most tolerant child I have ever seen. God gave you a gentle and generous disposition that does not hold hatred, maybe it is to offset your pain. I sincerely hope that in the future, you can maintain this With a sincere heart, you can get more peace and happiness, because that is what you deserve..."

"Thank you."

Xiao Jingrui took a deep breath and let it out slowly.In fact, he still had a lot to say in his heart, but when it came to his lips, he felt that it was useless to say it, so he could only turn around again and left the gazebo.

Both Yu Wennian and Yan Yujin were waiting for him on the road under the slope. After the three reunited, Xiao Jingrui and his brother got on their horses and continued to gallop south.

"Sovereign, it's windy here, shall we go back too?"

Li Gang came over to collect the wine utensils and asked in a low voice.

Mei Changsu silently agreed, and slowly got up and left the pavilion.Before getting on the sedan chair, he turned his head to look at the direction Xiao Jingrui was going away, froze his figure, fell into deep thought, and finally sighed:

"Great Chu is not a pure land after all... Pass on my order, send Zhu Chen over there, and try to take care of him."
