Chapter 37 Delicate

She filled a small bowl with water, and carefully put Huang Ruixiang, which was broken by children playing, into the bowl.The flower was trampled several times, and there were several dark scars on the warm yellow ball silk, making it look pitiful and listless.

This wimpy little flower reminded her of a similar person, with an ordinary face, the patches on the clothes were torn and seamed, she would blush when talking to her, she looked clumsy, but unexpectedly had a double skill hand.

She was in a daze, and suddenly a stone hit the rim of the bowl.The bowl was not placed very securely, and fell to the ground and shattered into several pieces.The water splashed out, and the Huang Ruixiang that had just been put in was stirred into the mud.

"Little mute, if you don't speak, whoever marries you is a fool."

She was startled, looked up, and saw the kid next door climbing up the courtyard wall of her house at some point, grimacing maliciously.The Huang Ruixiang plant was completely hopeless, but the child looked triumphant, enjoying the joy of teasing her.

She shook her head, didn't speak, just stared at the muddy Huang Ruixiang on the ground for a long time in silence.The child probably felt that her reaction was boring, his eyes rolled and fell on the blooming weeping peaches in her yard.

This peach tree was newly planted by her last year. The green peach is delicate, and it took a lot of effort to make it survive the winter smoothly.At this moment, the spring sun was shining brightly, and a peach tree was in full bloom, but the child climbed up the peach tree with a giggle, grabbed the branch and shook it violently.

For a while, the breeze blew up, the flower branches trembled, and the fragile pink petals fluttered down, like a peach blossom snow, and the peach tree was half bald in an instant.

She really felt distressed now, she stood up hastily, wanted to speak, but couldn't open her mouth, she could only stare at the child beggingly, hoping that he would stop and let go of the spring peach that she had so hard to plant.The child didn't take her silent plea to heart at all, instead he made a grimace, as if he wanted to shake again.

A long bamboo pole stretched out from nowhere and stabbed the child to the ground.A shadow rushed in angrily, grabbed the child by the collar, kicked his ass, and threw it out of the yard without delay.

"If you bully her again, I'll beat her up every time I see her!"

There was a child crying outside the door, and then gradually disappeared into the next door, presumably he went home to file a complaint.The man was vicious, as if he hadn't beaten enough, and he flashed his thin arms towards the empty courtyard door.She burst out laughing, looking at the man's thin body, thinking about what makes this man who always speaks in a low voice, become extremely brave at this time.

Hearing her laugh, the man lost his aura as soon as he put it on. He turned his head a little embarrassed, touched his head, and didn't dare to look at her, his ears gradually turned red.

She looked at him with a smile, knowing that he would recover in a few minutes, she was not in a hurry, and went down the steps to clean up the bowl that had just been broken.But the man rushed over like a gust of wind, stopped her, and quickly helped her sweep the debris into the dustpan.He held the Huang Ruixiang flower, washed it in the well water, and put it back into her palm.

Put together with it, there is also a tasseled hairpin decorated with rose agate.This hairpin is a rare rose pink in the market, with dangling tassels, crystal clear in the sun, like a blooming peach blossom.

The man lowered his head, his neck was red to the roots of his ears, his voice was muffled, but there was joy like offering a treasure:

"I just made it, and I'll give it to you."

She knew that this man had always had a pair of dexterous hands, those leftover materials that others disdained to use, in his hands, could always be turned into all kinds of exquisite gadgets.The things he made were not limited to traditional shapes, and there was only one piece of each style. Gradually, he became famous in the circle of young ladies and earned a foothold in the small town for him, an orphan without father and mother. land.

He likes her.And she was happy too.She comes from an average family, and she can't speak since she was a child, because she is dumb, and her honest and dull parents are also bullied outside.Neighbors didn't like her, saying she was unlucky, and her parents couldn't bear a son. Even children would come into her courtyard and laugh at her for being dumb.

Only he is different.His appearance was not like a strong light that pierced the heart, but a warm sun, which even brought warmth to everything around her.How can such a person not feel affection?

"I'm here this time because I have something to tell you." He lost his shyness, and finally he was able to look directly at her and say a few words, "Miss Li from the capital, Liu Yue, is married and wants me to make a phoenix crown for her."

"I asked her if she could stay in the town to do business. She said that the capital is rich in materials, and you can buy anything that is missing. Miss Li's family is a good person. She used to ask her sister to take care of my business. The wedding can't be careless, I must do this well for her." He looked at her fixedly, "It's just that I will not be able to return for more than half a year from this journey, I think..."

He took a deep breath, reached out to her for the first time, and said, "Come with me."

As soon as she saw the phoenix crown in his house, she couldn't move her eyes.

What kind of phoenix crown was that—she couldn't describe it.Those delicate drawing, lifelike golden dragon and emerald phoenix, embellished feathers... She doesn't understand.She just looked at it in a daze, thinking, why did she want to cry so much the moment she saw the phoenix crown.

And the tears really rolled down her eyes.He was frightened, and frantically wiped her tears with his sleeves, and the rough cloth wiped her face red when he didn't pay attention.He stopped at a loss, and muttered:

"Why... don't you like it?"

He lowered his head in frustration, like a deflated ball, stood sluggishly on the side, and it took a long time before he whispered:

"I know that these gold threads, pearls and jade are all fake. They are leftovers I picked up in the shop that they can't use... They are all saved by hard work on weekdays. I showed it to others, and they all said It is the most beautiful phoenix crown I have seen so far, and I was asked which lady made it custom-made... After they said this, even I began to think it was true..."

"I do this not to look down on you. In my heart, you are worthy of the best phoenix crown in the world, but I am too poor. I want to marry you and make you the most beautiful phoenix crown in the world, but I can't afford those gold stones." Zhuyu... Miss Li said that after finishing her phoenix crown, she can find some items for me to make Xiapei for free. I always want to have a phoenix crown, and I want to make another Xiapei for you... It's my fault, sorry."

He apologized incoherently, and she stared fixedly at this young man who had almost given her everything for her - there was still a trace of youthful childishness on his face.She smiled suddenly, leaned forward unexpectedly, and pressed a shallow kiss on the corner of his mouth.He staggered in fright, his reaction was much greater than she had imagined, he was tongue-tied for a while, and his face was flushed when he came back to his senses.

"I'll wait for you." She wrote stroke by stroke in his palm, "When Liuyue is over and you come back with your Xiapei, I will wear a phoenix crown and wait for you at home."

<<

he's gone.The days without him are as fast as running water day by day, like a book that does not need to be memorized, and only needs to be turned over day after day.

The peach blossoms are gone.Violet is in full bloom.Summer Violet withered.Begonia competed for beauty again.

By the time the begonia withers and falls to the ground, and the wintersweet wafts its fragrance in the snow, Liu Yue has already passed.

She wore the phoenix crown he made as promised, and waited day and night, until her black hair was tangled and her eyes were reddened by the light smoke of the wedding candles.

He didn't come back.

The snow melted, and swallows flew to the eaves.The sun returned to the warmth, and Huang Ruixiang and weeping peaches released their fragrance again.

He still hasn't come back.

The kid next door climbed up the wall of her courtyard again, broke Huang Ruixiang, and shook the petals of Bitao to the ground.This time, no one rushed into the courtyard again, aggressively cleaned up the ignorant child for her, turned around and blushed.

"Little mute, if you don't speak, whoever marries you is a fool."

The child looked at the bare green peach branches and laughed, making faces while chanting the jingle that was widely circulated among children. Seeing her closing her eyes in pain, she showed a vicious smile that finally won.

"Little mute, if you don't speak, whoever marries you is a fool."

Rumors about the boy in the jewelry shop gradually spread among the people.

The young man from the jewelry shop has good craftsmanship. He went to Beijing to make phoenix crowns for Miss Li's family in one year.It is said that the phoenix crown was so well done that it amazed everyone, and everyone who saw it agreed that Miss Li's family became the most beautiful bride this year.That little guy was amazing, once he became famous in the capital, girls rushed to order jewelry from him.guess what?The third young lady who was the most favored by Wang Yuanwai's family, caught this young man at first glance, and would not marry unless he was the only one, so Wang Yuanwai went to Miss Li's to say kiss to this young man.

Yo, this is really a lot of money.Did you guys agree?

This... If you didn't agree, wouldn't you have come back long ago?How come I haven't even seen a single person until now?

Tch, that means you don't have any definite news.I heard that this boy is engaged to a girl from Aunt Liu's family.

Hey, think about it with your toes, who would you choose, the third young lady of Wang Yuan's family, who is as beautiful as a flower, or a little mute who has no power?

The conversation became quieter, and she knew it was because she was near her house.She heard all those gossip, and at first she didn't believe it, but gradually, she began to doubt herself.

By now she had indeed figured it out.People want to go to high places, he is such a motivated young man, he must do his best in everything, and staying in the capital is the best choice.

As for the promise I made to her before... it's better to forget about it.

She figured it out, but her heart gradually began to ache. The phoenix crown was still on her head, and it felt like it weighed ten thousand catties, making her neck bend.She took a breath and felt depressed for some reason, so she took off the phoenix crown for the first time and put it aside, picked up the broom and walked to the courtyard, intending to clean up the remaining flowers all over the ground.

A long pole suddenly stretched out from the roof, and when she turned her head, the phoenix crown was gone, and the child who disappeared at some time and came back hugged the phoenix crown, squatted on the courtyard wall and looked at her with a smile.

Even though the phoenix crown reminded her of the feeling of being abandoned all the time, she was still in a hurry, and without thinking about anything else, she threw the broom and gestured to the child.Her funny appearance made the child laugh out loud, but she was not annoyed, thinking that maybe the child had had enough fun and would return the phoenix crown to her.Unexpectedly, as soon as the child turned around, he grabbed the phoenix crown and jumped off the wall.

She cried in anxiety, this phoenix crown was one of the few things he left for himself.It was like a knife soaked in sugar. She was cut bloody, but still had the unforgettable sweetness of blood quenching.

Almost without thinking, her hands and feet took the lead in taking action.She chased out the courtyard gate that she hadn't been out for a long time, and the child was still waiting for her outside the house, only to run away smiling again when she saw her chasing him out.She chased desperately, and lost her hair when she ran away, but her little feet, which were bound when she was a child, dragged her back.So on that sunny afternoon, many people witnessed a girl in a scarlet coat chasing a screeching, curly-haired child on a dusty path. thing.

Someone couldn't help being curious and asked what happened when the girl passed by. The girl just shook her head and pointed anxiously at the child who was running away, but didn't speak.Passers-by lost interest and ignored her.

The farce came to an abrupt end on the only official road that passed through the town.In a sudden moment, she felt as if she was flying, and she heard the screams of passers-by and the neighing of a horse.

"exquisite!"

In a trance, it seemed that someone called her name.She thought it should be her hallucination.She fell hard to the ground.Something sticky spread from the back of her head, soaking through her messy strands of hair.Her world was gradually darkening, and something was moving away from her. The last scene in sight was the child who got into trouble standing at a loss, and the phoenix crown in the child's hand fell to the ground with a "plop".
