The Peach Blossom in March

"Little rascal?!"

The boy was not hard to recognize, Zhu Qiqi, as her elder sister, recognized the boy in black at a glance.But compared to these, she was more surprised by the changes in the teenager.In just a few days, her eighth brother seemed to be eating a bit better and raised a lot.

Since the incident in the cave on the outskirts of Qinyang City, Zhu Ba's whereabouts have become a mystery. Because of this incident, she almost strangled Huaruixian to death.

The boy in front of him was about eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing a color of clothes that was extremely inconsistent with his previous ones. He was dull and lifeless, and his eyes, which were particularly bright in the past, were also lifeless, as if they were dead.This is not the slightest resemblance to the younger brother in his impression.

In addition to looks.

At this moment, Zhu Qiqi didn't dare to admit it.

The young man glanced at Zhu Qiqi, and a distorted smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Sister." It seemed that he hadn't smiled for a long time, and the smile on his lips was just a piece of flesh.

Zhu Qiqi was just trying it out, but she didn't expect that the other party really called her sister, which made Zhu Qiqi's eyes red all of a sudden.What happened to her cute and mischievous younger brother to become what he is now?

With the lessons learned from another Wang Lianhua just now, Zhu Qiqi quickly accepted a younger brother who was different from his younger brother in another world.

Withdrawing his gaze from Zhu Qiqi, the young man walked up to Qi Sutao step by step, and stretched out his arms to hug her. "Finally I see you, Sister Taozi." Compared with the brightness of his childhood, Zhu Ba now is gloomy and indifferent, even a little scary.

At least, Zhu Qiqi was afraid of him.

The moment Zhu Ba walked over to hug Qi Sutao, the fleeting gaze that fell on Zhu Qiqi made her extremely uncomfortable.Zhu Qiqi didn't want to believe that this was her younger brother, but a voice in her heart told her over and over again that this was her younger brother, the lively and cheerful Zhu Xiaoba who didn't have any troubles.

Holding Qi Sutao in his arms and turning around on the spot, Zhu Ba put down Qi Sutao, and before the other party could react, he pressed against her forehead.

Qi Sutao obviously felt a different aura from Zhu Ba. There seemed to be something wrong with this child, which reminded her of the future Wang Lianhua. "Xiao, Xiaoba?"

"Does Sister Taozi remember me?" He asked softly.

Qi Sutao felt that this was a bit strange. "Of course I remember, you are Xiao Ba."

Zhu Ba pulled his lips, and smiled lowly: "Sure enough, I don't remember." This kind of Zhu Ba is really a bit like the future Wang Lianhua. "After all... I didn't show my face at that time..." After speaking, he distanced himself from Qi Sutao again, and then lowered his head and whispered something in her ear.

The voice was so soft that no one could hear it except Qi Sutao, including Shen Lang and the others.

Shen Lang stared at Zhu Ba, and was shocked by the young man's different aura. The other party gave him a feeling that he had experienced countless times of life and death.What did a person go through to have such an aura?

Qi Sutao's eyes widened, and then she suddenly raised her head and looked at Zhu Ba in disbelief.

Zhu Ba stretched out his hand to touch Qi Sutao's face, and the corner of his mouth opened into a twisted arc. "Sister Taozi, Master hopes that you will be happy, so I will definitely help you." His smile was indeed a little distorted, but the way he looked at Qi Sutao was extremely gentle.

There was a soreness in her heart, Qi Sutao couldn't help but her eyes turned red again.

Tears couldn't help but burst out of her eyes, she pursed her lips, Qi Sutao hugged Zhu Ba, and couldn't speak anymore.

The temperature in his arms was so warm, in stark contrast to the coldness at that time.Zhu Ba wanted to cry more than anyone else, but he had long forgotten how to cry.Since the death of the future Wang Lianhua, he walked alone for a long time, and finally... he found an opportunity to bring Qi Sutao from that world.It's a pity that something went wrong, so Qi Sutao didn't return safely to that Wang Lianhua's side, but instead came to another parallel world.

Qi Sutao didn't cry, just hugged Zhu Ba and shed tears silently. The child in front of her must have suffered a lot, just like that Wang Lianhua, who gave everything for her.

Zhu Qiqi looked at the two hugging each other, and for some reason felt a trace of despair from them.

She wanted to cry for no reason.

After hugging for a while, Zhu Ba let go of Qi Sutao, took out a handkerchief from nowhere and wiped her face: "Sister Taozi never cried before, why does she like to cry now? Don't cry, just stay if you want to cry." See him crying."

"What about you?" Holding Zhu Ba's hand and taking the handkerchief from him, Qi Sutao wiped his face and softly asked, "What do you do?"

Zhu Ba was stunned for a while, and smiled wryly: "That's it, my family is gone, it's been too long. Sister Taozi...my world has collapsed long ago..." At this point, he continued : "I took Fifth Brother back, he is not..."

Qi Sutao interrupted him and said, "I know, I know he's not..." From the first time she met, the five young masters she met were all disguised by the future Wang Lianhua.She had never seen the real Fifth Young Master Zhu, and even they didn't know each other.

Zhu Ba looked at Qi Sutao, and suddenly said: "I used to see Sister Taozi with her head up, but now I see Sister Taozi with her head down. As expected... time flies so fast." Time can pass so fast.

Looking up and looking at the people standing in front of Ouyang Mansion, and looking away from them one by one, Zhu Ba unconsciously remembered the scene when he came to Ouyang Mansion for the first time and met most of them for the first time.At that time, Qi Sutao was also in front of him, fresh and warm, not as cold as the corpse later.

Sighing softly, Zhu Ba picked up Qi Sutao by the waist, and said, "Sister Taozi, accompany me to a place." Then, he turned around and wanted to leave this place.

Qi Sutao: "...??"

"Old Ba!" Seeing that they were about to leave, Zhu Qiqi immediately called Zhu Ba to stop.

After a pause, Zhu Ba, who had already turned around, looked back at Zhu Qiqi.

Zhu Qiqi took a few steps forward, came in front of them, murmured, and said, "You are, you are my little eight, aren't you?"

Zhu Ba stared at Zhu Qiqi for a long while, his eyes half-cast, and said: "I am not your Zhu Ba, and you are not my sister."

Zhu Qiqi didn't understand, she went on to say: "You are obviously Xiaoba, my little naughty boy."

Zhu Ba Ning stared at his sister, and said softly: "Your little eight is not me, and my seventh sister is not you..." He paused and said, "Sister Taozi and I both come from different parallel worlds. , there are you there, and your life trajectories are also different. So... I am not your little eight, but where is your little eight... I probably know. Don't worry, sister, I will replace you Find him."

Zhu Qiqi opened his mouth, and was a little bit overwhelmed by Zhu Ba, but she seemed to understand what he said.

"I'll send sister Taozi back first, and then I'll bring your Zhu Ba back." After leaving these words, Zhu Ba disappeared in front of them in an instant with Qi Sutao.

Seeing Zhu Ba who left like a ghost, Shen Lang and others were horrified, while Zhu Qiqi fell to the ground and cried.She felt sorry for Zhu Ba like that, when would her brother become like this?What went through to become like this?Also, he seemed to care a lot about that Qi Sutao who had a close relationship with Wang Lianhua, what is their relationship?

One question after another lingered in her mind, making her feel uncomfortable all over.

"Qi Qi." Seeing this, Shen Lang walked over and reached out to help her up.

Zhu Qiqi pursed her lips, her expression was extremely aggrieved, she grabbed Shen Lang's arm, and said with tears in her eyes: "Xiao Ba, Xiao Ba looks like this... As a sister, I don't know what happened to him... Shen Lang, Shen Lang...I'm so scared..." She was afraid that one day Zhu Ba would become the same as before.

Seeing Zhu Qiqi like this, Shen Lang couldn't bear to criticize something harshly, just as he was about to say something, Zhu Ba came back again.Yes, Zhu Ba, who had just disappeared not long ago, came back again, this time he was holding a fire boy.Bringing Huohaier to Zhu Qiqi, Zhu Ba said lightly, "I sent him to you according to the agreement."

Zhu Qiqi was stunned, looked at Zhu Ba who was right in front of him, glanced at his mouth, and embraced his younger brother tightly in his arms with extreme aggrievedness.

Her brother is back.

"Thank you..." Looking up at Zhu Ba, Zhu Qiqi began to cry.

Zhu Ba looked at Zhu Qiqi, looked at his sister's bright face, and suddenly missed their old days.At that time, they were young, carefree, and not afraid of anything.Now, things have changed.

Zhu Bazhen hadn't smiled for a long time, and when he raised the corners of his lips, his smile appeared jerky and distorted.After a short stalemate, Zhu Ba gave up smiling, and said softly, "Goodbye, sister. Goodbye, brother Shen..." Before the voice fell, he disappeared between her and Shen before Zhu Qiqi could say anything. Lang, in front of Ouyang Xi, Panda Er, Jin Wuwang, Wang Lianhua and others.

It has not been seen since.

It's like a flower in the mirror and the moon in the water.

The peach blossoms are scattered, and the spring is full of spring in March, and the garden is full of spring scenery at a glance.

After Qi Sutao was put down by Zhu Ba, the other party left before asking Zhu Ba where he was.Standing at the same spot, Qi Sutao looked around and couldn't see why, so she had to walk in alone.

The Taolin was very quiet, there was no sound except the chirping of birds.

The temperature of this day is a bit high. It is said that the temperature should not be so high in this season, but today, for some reason, the temperature is extremely high.Qi Sutao, who was a little hot from walking, took off the wool coat on her body, and hung it on her arm.Wearing a starry sky blue gauze skirt, she held the woolen coat hanging in one hand and raised the corner of the skirt to prevent it from being stepped on by her own foot.The clutch was stuffed in the pocket of her clothes by her. The pocket was big enough and the clutch was small, otherwise it would be really difficult for her to carry it.

Walking all the way, turning all the way, everywhere you go is a place where peach blossoms are in full bloom.Qi Sutao didn't know where this place was, but she had an intuition that she would definitely meet Wang Lianhua here.

******

In the depths of the peach forest, Wang Lianhua stood under a very big peach tree, holding an umbrella in her hand, staring at the thick|sturdy branches in front of her.

He saw Qi Sutao, that girl had grown up a bit, obviously more beautiful than before, and also a lot thinner.

It's just that seeing it is more uncomfortable than not seeing it, and seeing it but not being able to touch it is more cruel than not seeing it.

Looking up, Wang Lianhua squinted her eyes, looking at this beautiful Sanyangtian, her mood suddenly became bad.Holding the umbrella in his hand seemed to be a burden to him, and he threw it away in boredom, Wang Lianhua left the place in a irritated mood, and turned to other places.

This peach grove was planted later, in the peach garden on the southern outskirts of Luoyang City, and he took care of it himself.Since Qi Sutao left, he opened up this manor, planted it full of peach trees, and turned it into a peach forest.I still remember when I was young, when Qi Sutao and him went to play in a place called a park, I heard the girl tell Wang Xiaoxiao that I would open up a peach grove when I grew up, so that I could see peach blossoms in March and April, and after June. eat peaches.

At that time, Wang Xiaoxiao joked that Qi Sutao only knew how to eat when her mind was full.

It was also at that time that Wang Lianhua knew that Qi Sutao liked peach blossoms and peaches.

Wang Lianhua always likes to come here when he has nothing to do, but this time when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, he came here alone without bringing anyone with him.And this is also the secret place of his eldest son, basically no one will know that he likes to come here.

March is indeed a suitable day for spring. During this time, he will come to Taoyuan alone to live for a while.He had thought about Shen Lang's proposal before, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget about it, looking for immortals in overseas fairy mountains?Only Shen Lang could think of this kind of thing, he didn't have time.

Shen Lang went on a trip with Panda a month ago, leaving Zhu Qiqi alone to guard Renyi Village.

Ah.

He accepted it kindly, so he wouldn't go in such a stupid way.

******

Qi Sutao didn't know how long she walked alone, and finally reached the depths of the peach forest.Standing under the very big peach tree, staring at the umbrella on the ground, she was stunned for a long time without returning to her senses.The umbrella is too impressive, and I just saw it before, so I won't forget it.

Walking over to squat down, reaching out to touch the umbrella surface, Qi Sutao smiled slightly, picked it up, and put it away.

Holding the umbrella tightly with both hands, and regardless of whether the clothes and skirts were dragging on the ground, Qi Sutao just squatted on the spot and began to be dazed.

The peach blossoms are rustling, petals are floating all over the sky, and the whole peach garden is like a fairyland.

Sudden footsteps came from behind, Qi Sutao, who was immersed in her own thoughts, didn't hear it, but just stared ahead blankly with her umbrella in her arms.

The footsteps behind her suddenly stopped when they were four or five steps away from her. After an unknown amount of time, the owner of the footsteps made a sound.

"A Tao...?"

A shallow sound made Qi Sutao come back to her senses, she turned her head to look, when the image of the other person came into her eyes, Qi Sutao's cheeks got wet unconsciously.

Qi Sutao stood up slowly, turned around and tilted her head, a bright smile rose from the corner of her mouth.

"I am back."
