The peasant boy of crossing

Wu Su looked at Li Xinyi's astonished face, and said, "Don't underestimate the annoyance caused by the word love. Once you get stuck, you won't be able to get out easily."

Wu Su thought that Li Xinyi still didn't believe it, so he talked about a person he knew in school before.

"This man's name is Hu Chai. He came here after you quit the school. When he first came to the school, he could barely recognize a few words, but he studied very hard. He often asked me about words I didn't know. Smart, I only need to say many words once, and he can remember them. Until later, I went to study with Mr. Wei."

Li Xinyi didn't want to hear how Wu Su praised others, so she couldn't help interrupting him, saying: "I know that Hu Chai, like me, lost his parents when he was young, but he later passed the examination of scholar, entered the county school, and was praised by the villagers. He has a lot."

Wu Su went on to say: "After Hu Chai was selected as a scholar, his mother was very happy. At this time, the nephew of the village chief had a daughter who was just young and wanted to marry Hu Chai. The parents of both sides agreed, and even the dowry And the dowry is ready."

Li Xinyi interrupted Wu Su again, and said, "I know this—the lady of the village chief's nephew's family. I went to her son's first birthday ceremony, but what does this have to do with the word love?"

Wu Su didn't care either, he asked, "Then do you know that Hu Chai passed away shortly after his son's first birthday?"

Li Xinyi counted the time and said in surprise: "It was the time when I fell from the ancient tea tree. At that time, I was recuperating at home all day. No wonder I didn't know anything about it."

Wu Su said: "When Hu Chai was in school, he met a young lady from his master's family. This young lady has not yet reached the age of Ji, and she has a naive personality, but she is quite sensible. Hu Chai has a deep friendship with her."

Li Xinyi said: "Even if this young lady is not old enough, Hu Chai should avoid suspicion."

Wu Su continued: "Hu Chai didn't know that he had a deep affection for this young lady. He didn't realize that his heart belonged until his mother betrothed him, but it was already too late."

Li Xinyi was surprised and said: "Since Hu Chai loves the lady of the master's family, then he should not marry the lady of the Li Chang's family."

Wu Su said: "Hu Chai also talked about marriage with his mother, but he was unwilling to say who he admired, and he didn't know how much the person he admired thought of him. Under the anxiety in his heart, he fell ill. "

Li Xinyi said: "Then his body is too fragile."

Wu Su ignored him and continued: "Hu Chai was very ill, and he was exhausted all at once, but the wedding date was fixed. In desperation, the doctor gave him the medicine of tiger and wolf, and he recovered from his illness. loss of lifespan."

Li Xinyi said: "This is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. Is it too long to marry even if I am sick?"

Wu Su said: "The night before Hu Chai's wedding, he came to me with wine. He was so bored and had nothing to say, so he found me. I saw him in a state of disfigurement, and wept while drinking. , I just said that my heart is too bitter. Everyone doesn't care what he thinks, they just want him to give birth to a child."

Li Xinyi thought to herself: "Aren't I bored? I haven't been drinking and crying with Wu Su yet."

But the death is the greatest, and the thought only flashed in his mind for a moment. He raised the flagon again and poured a glass for himself and Wu Su.

After listening to this sad story, Li Xinyi's uneasiness has dissipated a lot. He slowly drank the wine like a sweet drink, and listened to Wu Su's final ending.

Wu Su said: "One night, I drank two altars of wine with him. At dawn, Hu Chai said that he was just depressed. After he said it, he felt better. At dawn, the road is still long, and he will forget the past. The person I admired, live a good life. After two years, I thought he could really forget the past and live a good life. After he died, I went to Hu’s house to pay respects to him. He threw himself into the lake on purpose. I was a little sad that I couldn't hold him in the end."

Li Xinyi handed the wine glass over, and said to Wu Su: "If he has the will to die, even if you pull hard, you won't be able to pull it back. It's not your fault. I can only say that fate plays tricks on people."

Wu Su took the wine glass, looked seriously into Li Xinyi's eyes, and said, "Since you have heard the story of Hu Chai, can you confess now?"

Li Xinyi laughed and said, "Do you really want to listen? If you can't hold me back, will you be even more sad?"

Wu Su drank the wine in the glass and said: "I will help you, no matter which girl you like, I will do my best to help you. If I can't help you, then I will help you too." I'll keep you from marrying a girl you don't like, and I'll set you free."

Hearing this, the smile on Li Xinyi's face became more real, and he said sincerely to Wu Su: "I am not Hu Chai, and I will not become Hu Chai. My mother always loves me, and my family has no property to inherit. They won't force me to get married. Besides, the world is so vast, and I can't get enough of it. So if the person I love doesn't care about me, then I will fall in love with someone else. You can always find your own in the end. A scoop."

"In that case, Ah Su." Li Xinyi looked at Wu Su and said seriously: "Are you sure you want to listen to me?"

From Li Xinyi's eyes, Wu Su seemed to see something disturbing, as if as long as the lid of this box was opened, everything would be completely different.

His intuition was crying out, wanting him to shake his head and reject this demagogic offer.

But there was a certain longing grabbing his reason, he finally nodded and replied: "You speak, I will listen."

Li Xinyi was silent for a while, looked at Wu Su, and said casually: "A Su, there is no one else in my heart, it has always been you, it has always been you."

The moon has risen to the top of the sky, casting silver light on the vast lake.

There are lights not far away, as if to show that there are still many people visiting the lake on this Mid-Autumn Festival night.

Li Xinyi picked up a handful of the moon in the water, where the waves were rippling, the moon was shattered, and then returned to the appearance of a white jade plate, clean and dust-free.

Seeing that Wu Su hadn't recovered, Li Xinyi felt a little embarrassed after realizing that, he poured himself a glass of wine.

Although he already knew that Wu Su probably didn't mean anything to him, but after he confessed, he kept silent and didn't even issue a good person card, isn't it too much?

Li Xinyi was a little depressed, if he knew that he shouldn't have said that the weak water is three thousand, if one scoop is not good, there will be another scoop.

Didn't Wu Su say that he would help him chase girls?Wouldn't it be interesting to help him chase himself and bend himself?

But that's what Li Xinyi thought in his heart, if Wu Su really wanted to bend himself, he was still reluctant.

Although he doesn't value children and doesn't care about other people's opinions, Wu Su doesn't necessarily.Compared with him as an outsider, Wu Su is a person who truly lives in this era. He has a sense of belonging to this world, so he must not be willing to be a rebel.

Wu Su didn't speak, Li Xinyi went to talk to the boatman.

"Old man, try this piece of lotus root starch osmanthus cake. I know that the old man probably doesn't care about this kind of food, but I don't know how long the journey will take, so eat a piece to replenish some strength."

The boatman picked it up with a smile, and said: "It's not far away. The wind is good tonight. There is no headwind all the way. I will put you down at the broken bridge. You go ashore on your own. There is still a lot of fun on the shore."

Li Xinyi bit the pastry in her mouth, and asked: "The black light is blind, isn't the old man afraid of getting lost?"

The boatman laughed, as if Li Xinyi had said something funny, and said: "I have reached the age of knowing my destiny, and I have been floating on the West Lake for nearly 30 years. Even with my eyes closed, I know where is where and where I can get lost. ?”

Li Xinyi enviously said: "It's great, I can see the scenery of lakes and mountains for 30 years, I must have understood the brilliance of West Lake by ten percent."

The boatman said: "I am different from you. The boat, oars and lake are my rice bowl. I only know whether the rice bowl is good or not, but I don't care whether it looks good or not."

Li Xinyi nodded and said: "The old man is a sensible person."

The boatman laughed loudly: "I don't understand, and I'm glad I don't understand. I am happy to go back and forth on the West Lake every day."

Not long after, the boat approached the shore of the lake.

Li Xinyi and Wu Su got off the boat, and indeed there was a banquet by the broken bridge.

Li Xinyi settled the bill, and the boatman told him that if they want to go back to the other side at dawn, they can come to him again.After speaking, the boatman left.

Li Xinyi looked at the place where the lights were dim, and the guests were drinking happily, telling stories about which dynasty they didn't know.

Artists sang ditties and played for these literati and refined scholars.

Li Xinyi searched around, but couldn't find Jiao Ruoliu and Lin Yujin, so she simply stopped looking.

He pulled Wu Su's sleeve and found an empty seat to sit down.

Perhaps it was because she drank a lot of wine on the boat before, or maybe it was because she finally told Wu Su what she kept in her heart. At this moment, Li Xinyi didn't feel sad about being rejected, but felt that her heart was clear, and she felt an inexplicable excitement , and fearless.

Li Xinyi patted the seat beside her, and said to Wu Su, "A Su, sit down."

Seeing that Wu Su seemed a little hesitant, Li Xinyi tugged at his sleeve and forced him to sit down.

He obviously drank a whole jug of wine before, but after sitting down, he still wanted to continue drinking.

Carefree, comfortable, and happy.

"Come on, Ah Su, you have a drink too."

Wu Su took the wine and said to Li Xinyi, "You've already drank a lot, so drink less."

Li Xinyi let Wu Su take away the wine glass, and said with a smile: "This is not our wine, and we really shouldn't drink it casually."

Wu Su only felt pain in his heart and really wanted to get drunk.

Li Xinyi was very clear in her heart, but she just couldn't control her words and deeds. He leaned on Wu Su and whispered softly: "Ah Su, do you know how long I like you?"

Wu Su shook his head, Li Xinyi counted with his fingers, but unfortunately he didn't know when he fell in love with Wu Su, so he couldn't figure it out.

Li Xinyi then changed the question and said, "Ah Su, do you know why I like you but don't tell you?"

Wu Su shook his head and drank the bitter wine in his glass.

Li Xinyi smiled and said: "You are stupid, why do you have to figure it out? Even if you don't ask, I will take the initiative to tell you in two days, so you don't have to bear the responsibility of breaking up our relationship because of this."

Wu Su choked on the spicy wine in his mouth and coughed again and again.

He looked at Li Xinyi who was lying on the ground, grabbed his shoulders, and forced him to sit up.

"What does it mean to break off friendship, Xin Yi, please explain clearly."

Li Xinyi couldn't control herself at all at this time, she couldn't hold back after holding back for a long time, tears poured out of his eyes.

He still wanted to squeeze out a smile: "It's our life, we will never see each other again."
