father - home

This sleep was very sound and sweet, although not very heavy, but still sweet.In the dimness, Zhao took his hand from under my neck, straightened my body, and quietly got off the bed.I heard the sound of his washing water, the sound of him closing the door gently, and I had a dream.This dream is first sweet and then bitter.I didn’t remember the sweet ones in the front, and the bitter ones in the back, I tried my best to forget them.I forgot.I only remember that the gentle and sweet wind is his breath; the soft and warm snow is his lips; the round and hard stone is his burning tongue; the clear and sweet spring is the flowing water. love liquid.

"Hey! Big slob, don't get up yet!"

"Let me sleep for a while, it's still early." I murmured, and closed my eyes that had just opened a little.I was really sleepy. For a whole week, I got up at 05:30 every morning and came home after dark. I was exhausted mentally and physically from making the experimental plan. Fortunately, Zhao's body was gradually recovering. I really wanted to sleep well for a day. But the curtains were ruthlessly pulled open, and the strong sunlight came in, making me feel white even when I closed my eyes, and that cute caterpillar...

The caterpillar came over, climbed up, licked its lips, clenched its teeth, bit the tip of its nose, pulled its eyelids, pulled its earlobes, blew on its ears, back and forth on its neck, and kissed along its shoulders to its fingers. Numb and itchy, sleepiness slipped from the fingertips.I opened the corners of my mouth, suppressed a smile, but didn't open my eyes.The caterpillar gave up its fingers and aimed at my life.

I couldn't hold it anymore, twisted, dodged, and begged for mercy. "Okay, okay, baby, I surrender, I'm up, can't I get up?"

Zhao stopped, and I squinted at him with a smile, wanting to hold on for a while longer.

"Get up, slob, if you don't get up, the coffee will be cold."

"Coffee?" No, a faint aroma of coffee wafted through the room.Looking at the scent, there are exquisite white porcelain tea sets and breakfast on the small round table in front of the window.

"Baby, what are you..." I asked knowingly, secretly enjoying the layers of happiness.

"I'm flattering you, young master. I'll take care of you so that you can get up quickly." Zhao pulled me up with one hand, put a big pillow on my back with the other, turned around and carried the tray, and put it on the tray. bed. "I want to lure you with coffee, feed you with breakfast, and intoxicate you with roses." Zhao poured coffee, added milk, and handed it to me. "Eat quickly, after eating, let's go horseback riding, as you said, I can ride a horse today."

I stipulated that for Zhao's first ride on a horse, he must get my permission and be present.Last Sunday, Zhao wanted to ride, but I thought it was not enough, let him wait another week.When I was away, there was the old housekeeper and Wedec's supervision, and Zhao had to obey.So every night, Zhao would nag it again, the kind of soft and hard work really impressed me, except last night.

Unable to restrain the excitement, coupled with the sunlight, Zhao's skin was white and transparent, with a faint red underneath, as if it came out from under the delicate glaze, looking so young and beautiful.

I took the coffee, held it in my hand, didn't drink it, and looked at him stupidly.

"Why don't you drink it?" Zhao looked at me in a daze, took back the cup, sipped it with his lips, and tested the temperature. "Look, it's really cold, I'll go to the kitchen to warm it up."

Because of illness, Zhao has never drank coffee, but he knows that I am very picky about drinking coffee, and the coffee will become sour when it is cold, so I don't like it.

Seeing that Zhao was about to leave, I came back to my senses, grabbed him, shook my head slightly, took the coffee, and drank it silently.I lowered my eyes and stared at the breakfast in front of me, coffee, pie, roses, and my eyes gradually became moist.

Zhao tapped the egg on the side of the tray, peeled the shell, and handed it to me.

Maybe I was too excited, but I actually choked on the egg.Zhao quickly patted me on the back and poured coffee. "The coffee is really cold, it's better to warm it up."

"No!" I yelled.To get rid of the heart-wrenching tenderness and obsessive embarrassment in front of me, I laughed, "You don't have to, baby, I'm not a patient."

"Marty," Zhao said, holding my hand and looking at me affectionately. "You have been taking care of me. Now that I am fine, let me take care of you too."

I shook my head, trying to control my emotions. "As long as I can see you, as long as you are well, that's enough."

The sun was high, and it was past ten o'clock. I knew that Zhao was in a hurry, so I washed and dressed quickly, and ran downstairs after getting ready.

I walked towards the stables, Zhao stopped: "Marty!"

"What?" Turning around, it turned out that Yinjian and Chitu had already prepared their saddles and were playing on the grass on the other side.

"You did it yourself!" I blurted out, my first reaction was to be a little angry, and then I heard Zhao's guilty reply, "No...it was Wedec." I couldn't help laughing.

I don't believe what Zhao said, but what does it matter?Zhao looks very good today, and his body has recovered quickly in the past few days. In his words, he pays attention to rest, eats well, and takes medicine on time, so I don't need to worry at all.I suddenly remembered that Ernst laughed at me more than once, "You are not a mother! Even if you are a mother, you can't do this, hold him, protect him, and hold him." Yes, only when he is injured or sick , When tired, he will lean against me, lie down in my arms, he will walk and fly when he recovers from illness, he longs for that feeling, that is his youth full of vigor , a life full of vitality, no one can keep it, whether it is his mother or me.And I, I'm just a station in the journey of other people's life, neither the starting point nor the end point, once it's gone, it's gone, and it may never come back.But he will remember me, I think he will.How long will you remember?forever?

This was Zhao's first time riding a horse in the manor, so I was naturally very careful.After careful inspection, I stood on Chitu's left side with him, clasped my hands, crossed my fingers, and supported his left foot. The two of them worked hard together to sit on the horse's back steadily, and I adjusted it for him myself. Good pedal height.

"Remember, don't run fast, you must follow me."

"Obey, sir!" Zhao playfully touched his forehead with his fingers, and then patted Chitu's neck.

I smiled and handed him the whip, and mounted the silver sword myself.

I took Zhao to see the wine cellar and mother's garden.Because Zhao can't drink yet, so as not to be depressed, we didn't stop in the wine cellar or the garden, but just looked in through the fence.Every plant and tree here is the mother's treasure.Forget-me-nots, carnations, cornflowers, daisies, roses, lilies, other flowers... some are budding, and some are blooming.I suddenly thought of Zhao's orchids. "Zhao, next time you go to Munich, bring back the orchid Qiu gave you."

"Orchid?" Zhao couldn't remember.

"You forgot, Qiu gave you a pot of orchids, which withered in the ward. Later, you were seriously injured, and I didn't care about it, so Qiu took it back to the dormitory to raise it first. I should bring it back when I go to Munich next time." .”

"Oh!" Zhao nodded thoughtfully, the orchid seemed to make him uneasy.He thought of Qiu, those days, Ernst, and his hometown.

We rode on the boulevard for a while before turning up the hill.There are continuous vineyards on the hillside, and the vineyards extend out to form the whole area: unfathomable, luxuriant, mysterious forests and ravines, showing a dazzling and gentle color in the sun.

The grass on the side of the road is bright and full of daisies and cornflowers, all the flowers are growing freely and nodding in the breeze.Lilac twigs lashed the horse's legs, and I slapped the cuffs of my boots with my riding whip.

We went up the hillside and passed through the middle of the vineyard. On the vines on both sides, there were strings of crystal-clear fruits like emeralds, and we lingered sideways from time to time.

"Zhao, the grapes are growing very well this year, and they will be harvested in a month or so."

"is it?"

"Yeah, you're just in time. It's a real festival. There's going to be a lot of people coming from the town and neighboring farms to help, and it's a very lively scene, dancing, drinking, frolicking, playing, all the time. It's going to go on until the early hours of the morning."

"That's great." Zhao's eyes sparkled with excitement.

The hillside was very gentle, and the two horses walked leisurely, and they reached the back mountain after a while.The back mountain is a large grassland, and a small stream winds down the mountain and flows into Lake Chiem at the end we can't see.On both sides of the creek, there are some trees on the grass, and a little farther away is a dense forest.
