Spring is waiting for the flowers to bloom
Chapter 1 Arriving at the dormitory, Ran Jingyu said to me anxiously
"Which ring?"
"That's the one you gave me!"
I searched all the beds, cabinets, tables, and everywhere in the dormitory, but I couldn't find the ring.
"You haven't been out these days, so why can't you find it? Where are you going to put it?"
Ran Jingyu shook her head and lay on the bed leisurely reading a novel. Obviously she didn't care very much. I was very sad. A ring is just a disposable accessory to her, but to me, it is the waste that my mother worked hard to pick up. It is the first time I bought something other than studying, and it is also the only gift I gave to Ran Jingyu. It is a very precious thing to me. Maybe it is not her who lost it like this. My fault, but such indifference really hurt my heart, and I was the only one who was sad.
I searched earnestly for two days, and became extremely sensitive to everything that shone in the sun, but to no avail.
The harsh light at noon made me dizzy, lying on the table, my eyes turned dark red and black, dizzy, and my sight slowly recovered.There was a bright white light shining at the corner of the table, thinking it was a hallucination caused by his recent hypersensitivity, he closed his eyes and continued to rest.
Ran Jingyu opened the door and came in and lay on the bed, I opened my eyes, the bright spot was still there, and the outline became clearer and clearer, it was the ring!That's right, it's the ring I gave Ran Jingyu, I picked it up in surprise, and cried happily
"I found it, Jing Yu, look, I found the ring!"
But I've searched for it a long time ago, but I didn't find it, and now it suddenly appears like this.
Ran Jingyu nodded with a smile, without any expression of excitement and surprise on her face.
I happily took Ran Jingyu's hand and wanted to put it on for her, but I found that the silver light on the index finger was not a pair of men's ring with the ring in my hand?
"When did you buy it?"
"Just now! Fortunately, I didn't sell it. You know I like this style, but it's a little too big. It fits just right on my index finger. It looks good!"
She held up her fair and slender hand, and the ring shone brightly in the sun, which really complemented each other.I smiled faintly, and shook the ring in my heart vigorously.
Ran Jingyu stopped her bright smile,
"What should I do? I can't wear two rings! I'll give you that one. Come, I'll put it on for you"
Ran Jingyu got up and stood in front of me, solemnly put the ring on my left ring finger, stroked my finger lightly, interlocked my ten fingers and held it in the air,
"Does it look good? Isn't it a good match!"
Ran Jingyu smiled lightly, her eyes glistening,
"Promise me you'll never take it off, okay?"
Her pleading look made my heart ache.

I handed the No.1 certificate of composition competition to my mother. Although she was illiterate, she knew it was a reward for her daughter. She still smiled happily and carefully folded the certificate and put it in a red wooden box.
It was a wooden box made by my father. She always carried it with her wherever she went. She never left her body. She put all the important things in it, such as the certificates I received since I was a child, and everything she earned through hard work. Penny.
My mother was very happy, and she threatened to cook me something delicious as a reward. She burned the fire vigorously, and the steaming black smoke made her cough violently, which could not stop for a long time.
"Mom, your cough has been getting worse recently, why don't you go to the hospital for a checkup!"
I stepped forward and patted her on the back distressedly.
"It's okay, it's an old problem. I caught a cold a while ago, cough...cough...hasn't recovered, no...cough...cough, don't need to go to the hospital!"
Coughing again, my mother spurted a mouthful of blood forward!She quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. I took the handkerchief and saw that it was already stained with blood. It seemed that this was not the first time.
"When did this~ start?"
I suppressed it as much as possible, but my voice was still trembling.
"No~ It's okay, just a small problem, don't worry about it! It will be fine after a while."
"I'm coughing up blood! How can it be a minor problem? We're going to the hospital now."
I know that my mother has always endured it even if she was not feeling well in order to save money.But this time it was different. Mother Qian's body was more important than Qian's mother. After I begged hard, my mother finally agreed to go to the hospital.
The result of the examination was shocking. It was lung cancer and needed immediate surgery. The treatment cost was about 5 yuan. For a family like theirs, this is simply astronomical.
The mother immediately made a decision not to accept treatment.
But if she does not receive treatment, she will only have a few months to live at most. The result is heavy. Even the mother who is always indifferent to her body panicked. She looked at me tremblingly and swallowed hard. , Secretly let out a long breath.
I fell into a panic for a while and wanted to treat my mother, but what should I do with the expensive treatment fee?
But she could not give up the treatment no matter what. When she was thinking about how to obey her mother, she got up eagerly and prepared to leave. Due to chronic malnutrition and emotional agitation, she passed out as soon as she got up.
I took care of her in the hospital for two days. My mother recovered her basic signs and the examination was carried out step by step. She also actively cooperated and made me feel a little relieved. However, all the savings at home were taken out, at most it was only enough before the operation. I don't need to worry about everything on the surface, but I wiped my tears silently several times in private.
I was taken care of for two days with my clothes untied. At the strong request of my mother, I went back to school to take a shower and change clothes. I went back to the dormitory to wash up briefly. I wanted to go back to the hospital immediately, but I fell on the bed powerlessly at the thought of the operation fee, crying Not only that, I was exhausted as soon as I touched the pillow, smelling the familiar fragrance on the pillow, I fell into a peaceful and deep sleep.
"My little boy, where have you been these two days? You miss me!~"
Ran Jingyu threw herself down with her long wavy hair.
"Xin'er, what's wrong with you? Your eyes are red and your spirit is not good. What happened?"
I stood up and shook my head, muttering to myself,
"Why did I fall asleep? What time is it?"
I regained consciousness from the soothing fragrance, got up, packed my clothes, and prepared to go back to the hospital.
Ran Jingyu grabbed me who was in a panic, eyes full of worry.
"What's wrong? Tell me, I'll help you out!"
"No, you've helped me enough, I really don't want to trouble you anymore,"
"Tell me quickly what's going on, or I won't let you go."
She was a little angry, she was so domineering, she would not allow others to hide what she wanted to know.
"Can you stop asking, and stop worrying about me."
I'm tired and don't want to mess with her.
She didn't stop me anymore, she just said something lightly,
"Now besides me, do you have a better solution?"
I stopped in my tracks, knelt down and covered my face. Tears kept leaking from between my fingers. The real problems you need to face are not something you can ignore if you don’t face them. Besides, my mother’s illness is imminent, so I can’t delay it any longer.
"Good heart, don't cry, tell me quickly, I will help you."
Ran Jingyu gently took me into her arms and comforted me carefully, I never show weakness in front of anyone easily, but this time it really hurt my vitals.
"Jingyu, can you lend me some money? It's a lot."
"How many?"
Without the slightest hesitation, she firmly let me see hope. I know her family is very rich, but this is not a small sum after all. I lowered my head and said nonsense,
"fifty thousand."
Ran Jingyu didn't answer, she pulled me up and wanted to run downstairs.
"Hey, Uncle Chen, I sent you 5 yuan. Immediately, I want it now... why do I need to ask my dad for instructions? You can ask now and get back to me immediately. I'll wait for your call."
After hanging up the phone, Ran Jingyu brought a chair from the housekeeper, helped me to sit down, squatted down, knelt down on one knee, lifted my foot and put it on her lap, and gently tied the shoelace for me to run away Make a beautiful bow.
Raise your head, with infinite tenderness in your eyes,
"Don't worry, with me here, the problem that can be solved with money is not a problem, don't be afraid~"
His slender fingers wiped away the tears from my face.
"Don't you ask me what I want to borrow money for? Do you want to borrow so much?"
"If you want to say it, you will naturally say it. I won't force you. Besides, as long as it makes you happy, I'm willing to pay as much as you want."
I was moved to tears, my lips trembled and I couldn’t speak. Except for my mother, no one in this world has ever treated me so cheaply and carelessly.
Ran Jingyu wiped away the tears on my face with distress, smiled faintly,
"Sorry, don't cry, everything will work out, I promise!"
"My mother was hospitalized, it was a very serious illness, the doctor said that an operation is needed, and the risk is very high, maybe... maybe... But if there is no operation, I only have a few months to live, I don't know what to do? "
Ran Jingyu hugged me distressedly and put her head on my forehead.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier, remember, you can talk to me about anything in the future, let's face it together and figure out a solution together."
Uncle Chen came over with the money and sent us to the hospital.
As soon as I got out of the car, I saw the restless heads of people not far away, and gradually dispersed. There were still blood stains on the ground, and the sound of whining discussions kept coming.
"With no money for medical treatment, I committed suicide by jumping off a building."
"Mother and daughter depend on each other for life, I really feel sorry for that child."
······
Words pierced my ears like sharp swords, and a bad feeling filled my heart.
I turned my head and ran upstairs madly. The only hope was that my mother was still lying on the hospital bed safely, occasionally looking sideways at the door, waiting for me to bring back the money to treat her.
I finally ran upstairs, and the nurse on duty was ushered in. Her eyes were red from crying and she kept apologizing to me.
"I'm sorry, Kexin, I just left for a while, when you come back your mother will..."
I didn't believe what I heard, I shook her hard and shouted hysterically
"Where's my mother? Where's my mother?"
"The doctor rescued her in time, but your mother... is still..."
The sad nurse in front of me continued to say something, but I didn't hear it. I just felt the darkness in front of my eyes, my body couldn't support it, and I felt tightly encircled by a pair of big hands before losing consciousness.
In the dim light, everything around me was cold, my empty eyes stared straight ahead, there was no expression on my dull face, lying there was the person who loved me the most in the world, she dedicated her whole life, devoted all Love and hope have been given to me, and now I even choose to leave because of loving me.
She will no longer put the only cotton coat on me in a small, cold and drafty space, will not show a gratified smile when she sees the report card, and will not cook steaming meals for me on the brick fire Now, I won't be busy earning a pitiful processing fee with my red, swollen and cracked hands. The person who loved me the most in the world is gone forever.
Now she is relaxed, no longer busy, no longer rushing, no longer panic.
Ran Jingyu asked Uncle Chen to handle the follow-up matters, but she never left my side for a moment.
☆, seven
Seven
Accompanied by Ran Jingyu, I went back to the mountain village to bury my mother. It is customary in small mountain villages for husbands and wives to be buried together after death.
The towering mountains blocked the entry of cars. We walked for a long time on the rough and rugged mountain roads, without any words, only a pair of big hands supporting us, silently expressing our love and support.
The closed mountain village is very curious and kind to the beautiful girl who broke in suddenly.
She was especially amazed at Ran Jingyu, who was plainly dressed but could not conceal her charm.
With the help of the village head and neighbors, the parents were successfully buried together. The etiquette in the mountains was simple, and there was only an orphan left in the family, so the matter was concluded concisely and quickly.
Ran Jingyu left money in my name and asked the village cadres to give some to the villagers.
I went back to the place where the whole childhood memory was preserved. It was already dilapidated. The roof had a big hole, making the room look bright and empty. The items are so tattered that the original appearance cannot be seen.I think of the stormy night, the weak candlelight that couldn't withstand the wind, the deafening thunder, and the mother's desperate eyes in the light of lightning, which looked sad but alienated in this old and strange space.
I hurriedly escaped from the place that gave me nightmares, and escaped from the fear and despair brought about by that stormy night.
Back in the car I fell into a coma, imprisoning all the pain and sorrow!
In my dream, I returned to the small space of the waste factory again. With the dim light coming in from the door, my mother folded and glued the complete matchboxes neatly and neatly with both hands, and occasionally played with the broken hair on her forehead.Put the food on the simple wooden table, wipe off the water stains on the clothes with the chopsticks, and hand it over, expecting a shameful expression on the face.
She stroked her messy hair, spread out the worn-out change one by one, flattened them neatly and put them into the red wooden box, showing a satisfied smile.
Suddenly the light became bright and dazzling, as if returning to the time when I was a child. My mother carried a hoe on her shoulder and walked firmly on the field ridge. She had inexhaustible strength. At that time, she was simple and thought that as long as she worked hard, she would be satisfied. return.
The light became brighter and brighter, and my mother walked farther and farther with her back turned. I yelled "Mom" in fear, and stretched out my hand to grab it forward, but I didn't catch anything. I could only watch her. The back became more and more blurred, smaller and smaller, and became a small black spot until it disappeared.
I ran desperately towards the direction where my mother disappeared, desperately trying to catch her, my body gradually became lighter and lighter, as soft as a cloud, I floated up and flew into the air, drifting with the wind, powerless, uncontrollable, floating for a long, long time , It was a very long and powerless process, I even had the idea of giving up, until I felt a pair of warm and powerful big hands appear, the body was pulled down forcefully, and quickly sank until it landed.
The body has a solid feeling of being supported, and suddenly woke up, everything pale in front of my eyes gradually became real, turned into a white ceiling, the air was filled with the smell of disinfectant, and the infusion bottle kept falling, reminding me that this is a hospital .As consciousness gradually regained consciousness, Ran Jingyu fell asleep lying on the edge of the bed, feeling her hands were sticky. The haggard face replaced the usual brilliance. I gently withdrew my hand and stroked the soft curly hair.
The sun is shining outside the window, the green trees are lush, the birds are free and happy, and the gentle wind is blowing the branches and leaves. This kind of wind should be very comfortable on the face.
What a beautiful and vibrant season spring is. In this spring, I lost the person I loved the most. This is a sad season. All the good things have nothing to do with me.
The sleeping Ran Jingyu moved her fingers and woke up suddenly. When she saw me, her nervous expression turned into joy.
"Xin'er, you finally woke up. You have been in a coma for three days. The high fever has not subsided. It scared me to death. You don't know how much I worry about you. The doctor said that you are too sad to be immersed in your own world and don't want to wake up. Come on, I'm so afraid that you won't wake up! I've been holding your hand like this, calling you constantly, be careful, wake up quickly, you still have a wonderful life waiting for you to enjoy, And... there is another silly person who needs your company, I... I'm scared, really scared..."
Ran Jingyu looked at me sadly, her eyes were moist.
"You've been with me all this time?"
I spoke, my voice dry and hoarse.
"Well, you cry for a while, and you scream for a while, I dare not take half a step away."
"Thank you!"
I lowered my head and didn't look at her again. I will remember her kindness to me, and I will remember it for the rest of my life.
"Just woke up, don't talk too much, I'll call the doctor."
Looking at the cheerful back of her running away, I know that I am not alone, there is at least one person in this world who cares about me.
The spring breeze blows over the dense young leaves, rustling, the emerald green grass has grown half a finger high, and the wet grass after the rain exudes a faint earthy smell.
I sat alone on the bench. The small dark red wooden box next to me was old and faded. When I opened the lid, there was a certificate of composition competition on the top. In high school, I only took pictures if the school needed me. These are the only records of my growth.
There was newspaper at the bottom of the box, and there seemed to be a protrusion in the middle. When the newspaper was opened, it was still folded in a square shape. Inside was neatly arranged money, a total of [-], which was the money accumulated by my mother over the years. For the tuition of the university, the blurred eyes seemed to see my mother saying firmly,
"Xin'er must be admitted to university, this is your father's and my wish."
There is not much time left before the college entrance examination. I wasted a lot of time a while ago, and now I must hurry up to catch up.
Except for short periods of sleep, I hardly ever leave my book.
During the lunch break, I ate steamed buns and worked hard on the exercises. Ran Jingyu put the lunch box on the table, grabbed the book in my hand and pressed it under her buttocks, with a serious expression.
"It's time to eat. You haven't eaten normally for several days. If you continue like this, your body will collapse."
"I'll just eat steamed buns. Give me the book quickly. I promised my mother that I will go to college."
"If you want to go to university, you can't use this kind of self-torture method! You can't eat well, you can't sleep well, what should you do if you are really tired and sick? Your mother wouldn't want to see you like this, be obedient, eat quickly , I will return the book to you after eating."
I understand her overbearing and domineering, so I have to compromise.
"I'm eating now, you return the book to me, I'll read while eating, I don't want to waste time."
"No, other things are negotiable, eating and sleeping must be taken seriously,"
She tilted her head up, her gaze firm.
I had no choice but to eat obediently.
Ran Jingyu lay happily on the table, constantly turning the pen in her hand, drawing a perfect arc in the air with her long fingers.
"Have you ever thought about studying abroad?"
She spoke casually, but her eyes kept watching my reaction, so that she forgot to turn her fingers, and the pen fell on the table and made a harsh sound.
I just shoved the meal into my mouth, it was so far away and unrealistic, I didn't react.
"Xin'er, I'm asking you!"
Ran Jingyu asked again cautiously,
I swallowed vaguely and said,
"That's your world, far away from mine."
I clearly know that the person in front of me is not on the same boundary as me, regardless of his family, growth background, or future.
"If you don't object, then it's settled. You go to England with me. I won't leave you alone. I can rest assured only if you are by my side."
Ran Jingyu got up and left the dormitory, without giving me time to react or a chance to refuse.
On the weekend, Ran Jingyu insisted on my resistance and took me back to her home.
On the tree-lined road, the car drove through the tall and wide iron gate. Once entering the gate, a huge fountain pool and a huge statue of an angel stood proudly in it.
The house is a majestic and tall building, and I was overwhelmed by everything in front of me.
As soon as the car stopped, Ran Jingyu pulled me and jumped out of the car. The delicate European-style wooden door was pushed open, and I entered the bright and spacious living room, which was gorgeously decorated and reflected golden light everywhere.
The servant took out the slippers and waited respectfully to put away the shoes that the two of them had changed. Everything went as it should, just like a scene that would only appear in a novel. Before he had time to react, he was dragged by Ran Jingyu and ran up the stairs. The stairs spiraled to a very high distance. The huge crystal lamp hanging on the top floor was several meters long by visual inspection.
Ran Jingyu's cheerful laughter echoed in the empty space. We stopped at the corner of the second floor, opened the door and entered. The spacious and bright living room, the sunny and warm balcony, the floor-to-ceiling curtains decorated with floral flowers, turned into the bedroom, the beautiful princess The round bed is covered with all kinds of beautiful plush toys.Ran Jingyu dragged me into the world of soft plush toys. The extremely elastic mattress bounced us up and down. The sheets made of high-quality fabrics are very comfortable on the face, with a fragrance that makes me feel at ease. The most comfortable bed, since I was a child, I didn't know that the bed would be so comfortable that people couldn't leave it. I just wanted to fall into it deeply and fall asleep without waking up!
We rolled happily, head to head, face to face, smiling happily,
"Welcome to my world!"
From this, I entered a place that could become a palace, and also entered another world, the world of Ran Jingyu, the world that changed my life and destiny.

"Dang Dang Dang" knock on the door
Ran Jingyu got up and opened the door, and came in to teach the younger woman who was the servant at the door, with delicate features and quick eyes, and entered in front of the fruit plate and milk, put away the things and said to Ran Jingyu, "Miss, the master is already on his way home."
"Well, I see, he will call me when he arrives, let's go out!"
"Yes"
The young woman nodded respectfully, glanced at me before leaving, raised her eyebrows in puzzlement, and showed doubts on her face, she bowed her head and closed the door and left.
"Is your father coming back?"
"Well, the last time I saw him was two months ago, and I don't know if I will stay at home for two more days this time."
Ran Jingyu pierced an apple with a fork and handed it to me, her expression was a bit lonely, which made people feel distressed, she was not as happy as she looked!
"Forget it, let's not talk, let's go, take you to see my cloakroom."
"cloakroom?"
I was wondering, do I still need a special room for clothes and hats?One box is enough for my clothes for the four seasons.
But the scene in front of me once again impacted my world view. The so-called cloakroom is exactly the same size as the bedroom. The wardrobe embedded on the wall is full of colorful clothes, accessories, bags, and shoes on the entire wall.
I will no longer be surprised that she never wears clothes again. The three big boxes that once surprised the whole dormitory are nothing compared to these. The luxury of the princess in the fairy tale is nothing more than that!
But I forgot that there are princesses in real life, such as this person in front of me!
"These are the new seasons of some foreign brands, and the shoes are all sent by my brother. He didn't know what style I like, so he bought some of them, and many of them have never been worn. His vision, I really can't compliment it."
Ran Jingyu's slender fingers slid across one by one, and finally stopped a long white cotton dress with lace trim on the cuffs and skirt, which made the simple style look full of design.
"This one is good, this kind of elegant and clean one is the most suitable for you, go and change it!"
I was wheeled into a fitting room behind a large mirror, overwhelmed by the nice touch of the fabric.
yes!I am always overwhelmed by everything about her!
The girl in the mirror was white, pure, and exquisite. Her delicate skin reflected a white halo in the warm light. I tried to smile to confirm that it was me.
Ran Jingyu stood and watched for a long time, but did not dare to go forward.
"Be careful, you are really an angel that fell from the sky!"
Ran Jingyu casually pulled off the leather ring that bound my long hair, and the smooth long hair unfolded and fell like a waterfall. A spring breeze blew through the window and gently brushed the long hair. I looked at Ran Jingyu shyly.
She looked at me blankly, then came over suddenly and tied my hair up again.
"Promise me that no one will see you with your hair down!"
I was very puzzled by what she said, but she looked serious and emphasized again,
"Remember?"
I seem to understand and nod my head in agreement!
"Miss, the master is back."
The young woman came in and saw me with my eyes widened after changing clothes. She couldn't hide her surprise and nodded secretly, as if the question in her heart had been answered!
The tall and heavy black wooden door made people feel oppressed. Ran Jingyu pushed the door open, interrupting the conversation of the people inside.
The traditional Chinese decoration in the room is low-key and elegant, and the exquisite wooden furniture is full of profound cultural heritage, but the oppressive light makes me feel the coolness behind me. I lower my head and follow slowly, not even breathing Become gentle, even a little sound will disturb this condensed silence!
The man in the front seat, Ran Zhenhai, is expressionless and unsmiling. The stern gaze in the huge oil painting self-portrait behind him is unwavering. Although he has abandoned the army for many years, the soldier's decisive and tenacious temperament has not diminished.
The man's indifferent expression changed instantly when he saw Ran Jingyu, with a bright smile and eyes full of kindness.
Ran Jingyu walked around the desk and walked to Ran Zhenhai's side, took his hand and smiled sweetly, the father and daughter talked with each other with a smile, a picture of a loving father and a filial daughter was so warm and enviable.
The others pushed away, leaving space for the father and daughter.
When Ran Jingyu mentioned me, Ran Zhenhai raised his head and looked at me who was standing quietly in the distance, put away his warm smiling face, and his calm voice was very penetrating,
"Take good care of Xiaojing in the future."
I nod repeatedly like a sheep,
"You go out first!"
Ran Zhenhai didn't want to waste the time of second glance.
Ran Jingyu nodded to me with a bright smile.
I let out a sigh of relief and exited the room.
When passing through the corridor, I was noticed by a half-closed door. From the gap in the door, I could see that the room was very empty, and it didn’t seem to be inhabited. There should be many empty rooms in such a big house. The reason why I was caught The attraction is because of an oil painting on the wall.
In the painting, the old man is wearing a violet satin cheongsam, with a noble and elegant temperament, and a warm pearl necklace hanging on his long neck. He is still well maintained in his old age, and his eyes are calm and calm, showing the elegance and tranquility of the head of a wealthy family.
Later I learned that the person in the painting was Ran Jingyu's grandmother. She was a daughter of a famous family, and she was highly accomplished in oil painting and enjoyed a high reputation.
During the Anti-Japanese War, I advised my father to donate all the family property, and I also participated in the post-war support. I met tough and upright soldiers at work. In the era of wars, this kind of love cannot last long, but it will not change until death.
Ran Jingyu showed me the wedding photo of the two old people. It was taken hastily by my grandfather before going to the battlefield. It is the only souvenir. My grandfather was also from a wealthy family. He stayed abroad in his early years and went to an orthodox military academy. Ritual sense.
Accompanied by Ran Jingyu before going abroad, we returned to the remote mountain village again.
I knelt in front of the tombstone I was stroking, weeping so hard that Ran Jingyu hugged me tightly and comforted me silently.
Tombstones are extravagant in a barren mountain village, and only respectable people in the village will raise funds to ask the old master in the village to carve one. This is the money left by Ran Jingyu, and the old party secretary invited someone to carve it.
Under Ran Jingyu's comfort, I gradually calmed down.
"My parents are honest and responsible people. My father went to work in the city, and when he came back, he especially supported me in going to school. He said that I must be admitted to the school in the city and that I was not allowed to be like other girls in the village. After studying at school for two years, he worked as a farmer at home after knowing a few words, waiting to grow up and get married, and lived in this mountain all his life, suffering from hardship and poverty. In order to earn more money, he went down the mine, and ended up on that stormy night ···When he was caught, his body was already stiff. Although I was young at the time, I also understood what my father's departure meant to our family. In that case, my mother still did not let me give up my studies. She was illiterate Doing all the tedious and heavy work, with meager income, she always believes that as long as she works hard, she will gain something. She could have found a man and remarried, but she did not want any possibility of becoming an obstacle for me to go to school. She is very hardworking and stubborn, and never allows others to show mercy. She also affects me in the same way. So, Jing Yu, I just swore in front of my parents' grave that I can't guarantee it for the rest of my life. I will use ten years to repay you for my love. good."
Seeing that she didn't respond, I continued with firm eyes,
"Ten years is not enough, 20 years, this is my promise to you."
Ran Jingyu took me into her arms lovingly, and they pressed their foreheads together.
"Fool, the best thing I do to you is that I don't need you to do anything in return."
"I'm serious, it's the only thing I can do right now."
"Five years! Stay with me within five years and don't leave."
"Yeah!" I nodded vigorously and solemnly promised.
Under the setting sun, the two of us hugged each other tightly, our eyes were full of tenderness, but we each had our own thoughts!
I thought that five years would be enough time for Ran Jingyu to get used to her existence, making it impossible for her to let go.
However, Ran Jingyu thought that it would take five years to find a reason to submit to herself and no longer love her so deeply, so that she could let me leave freely.
This year, I was 18 years old and Ran Jingyu was 18 years old.
As we walked, I was talking about this mountain full of childhood memories, the small hill not far away, where I often played with the neighbors’ brothers and sisters. More than ten years later, the hillside is still like that, and we have grown up. When I grow up, the brothers and sisters in the neighborhood think they are already married and have children!
For mountain villages where farming is heavy, it is very important to start a family and have children early.
We didn't come at the right time, the mountains in autumn are the most magnificent, and it is also the season when people feel the harvest.
During the autumn harvest season, groups of pheasants and hares in the mountains will come out to steal the fruits of farmers’ labor. The old branch secretary will form a hunting team to go into the mountains to hunt game. While peeling and killing, it was deliciously cooked for an entire afternoon, and everyone happily shared and ate, which was a lively scene.
At that time, the meat was really plentiful and delicious, and the laughter spread far, far.
I closed my eyes and felt the warm wind in early summer, reminiscing about all the good things at that time.
Ran Jingyu gently pinched my nose and said with a smile,
"Little greedy cat, you will have to eat your meat after following me."
I point to the halfway up the mountain
"There are the most fruit trees there. When Wanmu was a child, he often climbed up the tree to pick fruit to eat. When I was young, I always suffered from stomach ache. When the red bayberry was ripe, my mother would flood some red bayberry, which was enough for me to eat for a year."
Speaking of my nose turning sour again, Ran Jingyu hugged my shoulders, I raised my smiling face to reassure her, and pointed to the distance and said,
"I remember one time when I ran too far and it was dark, everyone in the village came out to look for it. In the end, the old yellow dog of the old party secretary's family found us. That dog was not as friendly as the old party secretary. ’ screamed, we were so scared that we climbed up the tree and dared not come down, and when we saw our mother, we were aggrieved and cried like ‘wow’!”
Ran Jingyu looked at me with a smile, but she held my hand even harder, letting me lean on her shoulder, as if telling me that if I was wronged in the future, she would be my reliance.
"Although the life in the mountains is poor and heavy, but the heart is simple and simple, which is why I always can't get along with my classmates. It's another way of getting along. I can't handle the mixed interpersonal relationship. I don't want to go along with it and I don't want to be changed, if I become another person, then it's not me!"
"Don't worry, you don't need to change in your future life, just be yourself, that simple, beautiful you."
Looking at the distant mountains, pure air and pure folk customs can produce pure people, but how can we maintain this purity and not be polluted! ~~

Back at school, compared to Ran Jingyu's big boxes and small bags, I only have a few clothes and a small wooden box for my mother in a bag.
The parting breath of the dormitory was only reflected in Hu Jing. She cried and hugged me and kept telling me to be safe. Zhang Yiman looked out the window sadly. She still couldn't figure out that in her eyes, this remote mountain village was destined to A girl who has been mediocre and inconspicuous all her life can even see the end of her life at a glance, but still has the life to study abroad. That is something that a child like her who grew up in a good family in the city cannot imagine!
Ran Jingyu put down the bag in her hand, and distributed the clothes inside to the two of them. Uncharacteristically, Zhang Yiman immediately jumped out of bed without excitement and carefully selected.
Her self-esteem does not allow herself to behave like this at this moment, and she can't catch up and doesn't want to be underestimated.
After many years, she will find that the only thing she can't pass is her own.
On the day of boarding the plane, Ran Zhenhai did not come to see him off, he went to the United States farther away, Ran Jingyu was a little disappointed
"That's the one you gave me!"
I searched all the beds, cabinets, tables, and everywhere in the dormitory, but I couldn't find the ring.
"You haven't been out these days, so why can't you find it? Where are you going to put it?"
Ran Jingyu shook her head and lay on the bed leisurely reading a novel. Obviously she didn't care very much. I was very sad. A ring is just a disposable accessory to her, but to me, it is the waste that my mother worked hard to pick up. It is the first time I bought something other than studying, and it is also the only gift I gave to Ran Jingyu. It is a very precious thing to me. Maybe it is not her who lost it like this. My fault, but such indifference really hurt my heart, and I was the only one who was sad.
I searched earnestly for two days, and became extremely sensitive to everything that shone in the sun, but to no avail.
The harsh light at noon made me dizzy, lying on the table, my eyes turned dark red and black, dizzy, and my sight slowly recovered.There was a bright white light shining at the corner of the table, thinking it was a hallucination caused by his recent hypersensitivity, he closed his eyes and continued to rest.
Ran Jingyu opened the door and came in and lay on the bed, I opened my eyes, the bright spot was still there, and the outline became clearer and clearer, it was the ring!That's right, it's the ring I gave Ran Jingyu, I picked it up in surprise, and cried happily
"I found it, Jing Yu, look, I found the ring!"
But I've searched for it a long time ago, but I didn't find it, and now it suddenly appears like this.
Ran Jingyu nodded with a smile, without any expression of excitement and surprise on her face.
I happily took Ran Jingyu's hand and wanted to put it on for her, but I found that the silver light on the index finger was not a pair of men's ring with the ring in my hand?
"When did you buy it?"
"Just now! Fortunately, I didn't sell it. You know I like this style, but it's a little too big. It fits just right on my index finger. It looks good!"
She held up her fair and slender hand, and the ring shone brightly in the sun, which really complemented each other.I smiled faintly, and shook the ring in my heart vigorously.
Ran Jingyu stopped her bright smile,
"What should I do? I can't wear two rings! I'll give you that one. Come, I'll put it on for you"
Ran Jingyu got up and stood in front of me, solemnly put the ring on my left ring finger, stroked my finger lightly, interlocked my ten fingers and held it in the air,
"Does it look good? Isn't it a good match!"
Ran Jingyu smiled lightly, her eyes glistening,
"Promise me you'll never take it off, okay?"
Her pleading look made my heart ache.

I handed the No.1 certificate of composition competition to my mother. Although she was illiterate, she knew it was a reward for her daughter. She still smiled happily and carefully folded the certificate and put it in a red wooden box.
It was a wooden box made by my father. She always carried it with her wherever she went. She never left her body. She put all the important things in it, such as the certificates I received since I was a child, and everything she earned through hard work. Penny.
My mother was very happy, and she threatened to cook me something delicious as a reward. She burned the fire vigorously, and the steaming black smoke made her cough violently, which could not stop for a long time.
"Mom, your cough has been getting worse recently, why don't you go to the hospital for a checkup!"
I stepped forward and patted her on the back distressedly.
"It's okay, it's an old problem. I caught a cold a while ago, cough...cough...hasn't recovered, no...cough...cough, don't need to go to the hospital!"
Coughing again, my mother spurted a mouthful of blood forward!She quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. I took the handkerchief and saw that it was already stained with blood. It seemed that this was not the first time.
"When did this~ start?"
I suppressed it as much as possible, but my voice was still trembling.
"No~ It's okay, just a small problem, don't worry about it! It will be fine after a while."
"I'm coughing up blood! How can it be a minor problem? We're going to the hospital now."
I know that my mother has always endured it even if she was not feeling well in order to save money.But this time it was different. Mother Qian's body was more important than Qian's mother. After I begged hard, my mother finally agreed to go to the hospital.
The result of the examination was shocking. It was lung cancer and needed immediate surgery. The treatment cost was about 5 yuan. For a family like theirs, this is simply astronomical.
The mother immediately made a decision not to accept treatment.
But if she does not receive treatment, she will only have a few months to live at most. The result is heavy. Even the mother who is always indifferent to her body panicked. She looked at me tremblingly and swallowed hard. , Secretly let out a long breath.
I fell into a panic for a while and wanted to treat my mother, but what should I do with the expensive treatment fee?
But she could not give up the treatment no matter what. When she was thinking about how to obey her mother, she got up eagerly and prepared to leave. Due to chronic malnutrition and emotional agitation, she passed out as soon as she got up.
I took care of her in the hospital for two days. My mother recovered her basic signs and the examination was carried out step by step. She also actively cooperated and made me feel a little relieved. However, all the savings at home were taken out, at most it was only enough before the operation. I don't need to worry about everything on the surface, but I wiped my tears silently several times in private.
I was taken care of for two days with my clothes untied. At the strong request of my mother, I went back to school to take a shower and change clothes. I went back to the dormitory to wash up briefly. I wanted to go back to the hospital immediately, but I fell on the bed powerlessly at the thought of the operation fee, crying Not only that, I was exhausted as soon as I touched the pillow, smelling the familiar fragrance on the pillow, I fell into a peaceful and deep sleep.
"My little boy, where have you been these two days? You miss me!~"
Ran Jingyu threw herself down with her long wavy hair.
"Xin'er, what's wrong with you? Your eyes are red and your spirit is not good. What happened?"
I stood up and shook my head, muttering to myself,
"Why did I fall asleep? What time is it?"
I regained consciousness from the soothing fragrance, got up, packed my clothes, and prepared to go back to the hospital.
Ran Jingyu grabbed me who was in a panic, eyes full of worry.
"What's wrong? Tell me, I'll help you out!"
"No, you've helped me enough, I really don't want to trouble you anymore,"
"Tell me quickly what's going on, or I won't let you go."
She was a little angry, she was so domineering, she would not allow others to hide what she wanted to know.
"Can you stop asking, and stop worrying about me."
I'm tired and don't want to mess with her.
She didn't stop me anymore, she just said something lightly,
"Now besides me, do you have a better solution?"
I stopped in my tracks, knelt down and covered my face. Tears kept leaking from between my fingers. The real problems you need to face are not something you can ignore if you don’t face them. Besides, my mother’s illness is imminent, so I can’t delay it any longer.
"Good heart, don't cry, tell me quickly, I will help you."
Ran Jingyu gently took me into her arms and comforted me carefully, I never show weakness in front of anyone easily, but this time it really hurt my vitals.
"Jingyu, can you lend me some money? It's a lot."
"How many?"
Without the slightest hesitation, she firmly let me see hope. I know her family is very rich, but this is not a small sum after all. I lowered my head and said nonsense,
"fifty thousand."
Ran Jingyu didn't answer, she pulled me up and wanted to run downstairs.
"Hey, Uncle Chen, I sent you 5 yuan. Immediately, I want it now... why do I need to ask my dad for instructions? You can ask now and get back to me immediately. I'll wait for your call."
After hanging up the phone, Ran Jingyu brought a chair from the housekeeper, helped me to sit down, squatted down, knelt down on one knee, lifted my foot and put it on her lap, and gently tied the shoelace for me to run away Make a beautiful bow.
Raise your head, with infinite tenderness in your eyes,
"Don't worry, with me here, the problem that can be solved with money is not a problem, don't be afraid~"
His slender fingers wiped away the tears from my face.
"Don't you ask me what I want to borrow money for? Do you want to borrow so much?"
"If you want to say it, you will naturally say it. I won't force you. Besides, as long as it makes you happy, I'm willing to pay as much as you want."
I was moved to tears, my lips trembled and I couldn’t speak. Except for my mother, no one in this world has ever treated me so cheaply and carelessly.
Ran Jingyu wiped away the tears on my face with distress, smiled faintly,
"Sorry, don't cry, everything will work out, I promise!"
"My mother was hospitalized, it was a very serious illness, the doctor said that an operation is needed, and the risk is very high, maybe... maybe... But if there is no operation, I only have a few months to live, I don't know what to do? "
Ran Jingyu hugged me distressedly and put her head on my forehead.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier, remember, you can talk to me about anything in the future, let's face it together and figure out a solution together."
Uncle Chen came over with the money and sent us to the hospital.
As soon as I got out of the car, I saw the restless heads of people not far away, and gradually dispersed. There were still blood stains on the ground, and the sound of whining discussions kept coming.
"With no money for medical treatment, I committed suicide by jumping off a building."
"Mother and daughter depend on each other for life, I really feel sorry for that child."
······
Words pierced my ears like sharp swords, and a bad feeling filled my heart.
I turned my head and ran upstairs madly. The only hope was that my mother was still lying on the hospital bed safely, occasionally looking sideways at the door, waiting for me to bring back the money to treat her.
I finally ran upstairs, and the nurse on duty was ushered in. Her eyes were red from crying and she kept apologizing to me.
"I'm sorry, Kexin, I just left for a while, when you come back your mother will..."
I didn't believe what I heard, I shook her hard and shouted hysterically
"Where's my mother? Where's my mother?"
"The doctor rescued her in time, but your mother... is still..."
The sad nurse in front of me continued to say something, but I didn't hear it. I just felt the darkness in front of my eyes, my body couldn't support it, and I felt tightly encircled by a pair of big hands before losing consciousness.
In the dim light, everything around me was cold, my empty eyes stared straight ahead, there was no expression on my dull face, lying there was the person who loved me the most in the world, she dedicated her whole life, devoted all Love and hope have been given to me, and now I even choose to leave because of loving me.
She will no longer put the only cotton coat on me in a small, cold and drafty space, will not show a gratified smile when she sees the report card, and will not cook steaming meals for me on the brick fire Now, I won't be busy earning a pitiful processing fee with my red, swollen and cracked hands. The person who loved me the most in the world is gone forever.
Now she is relaxed, no longer busy, no longer rushing, no longer panic.
Ran Jingyu asked Uncle Chen to handle the follow-up matters, but she never left my side for a moment.

Accompanied by Ran Jingyu, I went back to the mountain village to bury my mother. It is customary in small mountain villages for husbands and wives to be buried together after death.
The towering mountains blocked the entry of cars. We walked for a long time on the rough and rugged mountain roads, without any words, only a pair of big hands supporting us, silently expressing our love and support.
The closed mountain village is very curious and kind to the beautiful girl who broke in suddenly.
She was especially amazed at Ran Jingyu, who was plainly dressed but could not conceal her charm.
With the help of the village head and neighbors, the parents were successfully buried together. The etiquette in the mountains was simple, and there was only an orphan left in the family, so the matter was concluded concisely and quickly.
Ran Jingyu left money in my name and asked the village cadres to give some to the villagers.
I went back to the place where the whole childhood memory was preserved. It was already dilapidated. The roof had a big hole, making the room look bright and empty. The items are so tattered that the original appearance cannot be seen.I think of the stormy night, the weak candlelight that couldn't withstand the wind, the deafening thunder, and the mother's desperate eyes in the light of lightning, which looked sad but alienated in this old and strange space.
I hurriedly escaped from the place that gave me nightmares, and escaped from the fear and despair brought about by that stormy night.
Back in the car I fell into a coma, imprisoning all the pain and sorrow!
In my dream, I returned to the small space of the waste factory again. With the dim light coming in from the door, my mother folded and glued the complete matchboxes neatly and neatly with both hands, and occasionally played with the broken hair on her forehead.Put the food on the simple wooden table, wipe off the water stains on the clothes with the chopsticks, and hand it over, expecting a shameful expression on the face.
She stroked her messy hair, spread out the worn-out change one by one, flattened them neatly and put them into the red wooden box, showing a satisfied smile.
Suddenly the light became bright and dazzling, as if returning to the time when I was a child. My mother carried a hoe on her shoulder and walked firmly on the field ridge. She had inexhaustible strength. At that time, she was simple and thought that as long as she worked hard, she would be satisfied. return.
The light became brighter and brighter, and my mother walked farther and farther with her back turned. I yelled "Mom" in fear, and stretched out my hand to grab it forward, but I didn't catch anything. I could only watch her. The back became more and more blurred, smaller and smaller, and became a small black spot until it disappeared.
I ran desperately towards the direction where my mother disappeared, desperately trying to catch her, my body gradually became lighter and lighter, as soft as a cloud, I floated up and flew into the air, drifting with the wind, powerless, uncontrollable, floating for a long, long time , It was a very long and powerless process, I even had the idea of giving up, until I felt a pair of warm and powerful big hands appear, the body was pulled down forcefully, and quickly sank until it landed.
The body has a solid feeling of being supported, and suddenly woke up, everything pale in front of my eyes gradually became real, turned into a white ceiling, the air was filled with the smell of disinfectant, and the infusion bottle kept falling, reminding me that this is a hospital .As consciousness gradually regained consciousness, Ran Jingyu fell asleep lying on the edge of the bed, feeling her hands were sticky. The haggard face replaced the usual brilliance. I gently withdrew my hand and stroked the soft curly hair.
The sun is shining outside the window, the green trees are lush, the birds are free and happy, and the gentle wind is blowing the branches and leaves. This kind of wind should be very comfortable on the face.
What a beautiful and vibrant season spring is. In this spring, I lost the person I loved the most. This is a sad season. All the good things have nothing to do with me.
The sleeping Ran Jingyu moved her fingers and woke up suddenly. When she saw me, her nervous expression turned into joy.
"Xin'er, you finally woke up. You have been in a coma for three days. The high fever has not subsided. It scared me to death. You don't know how much I worry about you. The doctor said that you are too sad to be immersed in your own world and don't want to wake up. Come on, I'm so afraid that you won't wake up! I've been holding your hand like this, calling you constantly, be careful, wake up quickly, you still have a wonderful life waiting for you to enjoy, And... there is another silly person who needs your company, I... I'm scared, really scared..."
Ran Jingyu looked at me sadly, her eyes were moist.
"You've been with me all this time?"
I spoke, my voice dry and hoarse.
"Well, you cry for a while, and you scream for a while, I dare not take half a step away."
"Thank you!"
I lowered my head and didn't look at her again. I will remember her kindness to me, and I will remember it for the rest of my life.
"Just woke up, don't talk too much, I'll call the doctor."
Looking at the cheerful back of her running away, I know that I am not alone, there is at least one person in this world who cares about me.
The spring breeze blows over the dense young leaves, rustling, the emerald green grass has grown half a finger high, and the wet grass after the rain exudes a faint earthy smell.
I sat alone on the bench. The small dark red wooden box next to me was old and faded. When I opened the lid, there was a certificate of composition competition on the top. In high school, I only took pictures if the school needed me. These are the only records of my growth.
There was newspaper at the bottom of the box, and there seemed to be a protrusion in the middle. When the newspaper was opened, it was still folded in a square shape. Inside was neatly arranged money, a total of [-], which was the money accumulated by my mother over the years. For the tuition of the university, the blurred eyes seemed to see my mother saying firmly,
"Xin'er must be admitted to university, this is your father's and my wish."
There is not much time left before the college entrance examination. I wasted a lot of time a while ago, and now I must hurry up to catch up.
Except for short periods of sleep, I hardly ever leave my book.
During the lunch break, I ate steamed buns and worked hard on the exercises. Ran Jingyu put the lunch box on the table, grabbed the book in my hand and pressed it under her buttocks, with a serious expression.
"It's time to eat. You haven't eaten normally for several days. If you continue like this, your body will collapse."
"I'll just eat steamed buns. Give me the book quickly. I promised my mother that I will go to college."
"If you want to go to university, you can't use this kind of self-torture method! You can't eat well, you can't sleep well, what should you do if you are really tired and sick? Your mother wouldn't want to see you like this, be obedient, eat quickly , I will return the book to you after eating."
I understand her overbearing and domineering, so I have to compromise.
"I'm eating now, you return the book to me, I'll read while eating, I don't want to waste time."
"No, other things are negotiable, eating and sleeping must be taken seriously,"
She tilted her head up, her gaze firm.
I had no choice but to eat obediently.
Ran Jingyu lay happily on the table, constantly turning the pen in her hand, drawing a perfect arc in the air with her long fingers.
"Have you ever thought about studying abroad?"
She spoke casually, but her eyes kept watching my reaction, so that she forgot to turn her fingers, and the pen fell on the table and made a harsh sound.
I just shoved the meal into my mouth, it was so far away and unrealistic, I didn't react.
"Xin'er, I'm asking you!"
Ran Jingyu asked again cautiously,
I swallowed vaguely and said,
"That's your world, far away from mine."
I clearly know that the person in front of me is not on the same boundary as me, regardless of his family, growth background, or future.
"If you don't object, then it's settled. You go to England with me. I won't leave you alone. I can rest assured only if you are by my side."
Ran Jingyu got up and left the dormitory, without giving me time to react or a chance to refuse.
On the weekend, Ran Jingyu insisted on my resistance and took me back to her home.
On the tree-lined road, the car drove through the tall and wide iron gate. Once entering the gate, a huge fountain pool and a huge statue of an angel stood proudly in it.
The house is a majestic and tall building, and I was overwhelmed by everything in front of me.
As soon as the car stopped, Ran Jingyu pulled me and jumped out of the car. The delicate European-style wooden door was pushed open, and I entered the bright and spacious living room, which was gorgeously decorated and reflected golden light everywhere.
The servant took out the slippers and waited respectfully to put away the shoes that the two of them had changed. Everything went as it should, just like a scene that would only appear in a novel. Before he had time to react, he was dragged by Ran Jingyu and ran up the stairs. The stairs spiraled to a very high distance. The huge crystal lamp hanging on the top floor was several meters long by visual inspection.
Ran Jingyu's cheerful laughter echoed in the empty space. We stopped at the corner of the second floor, opened the door and entered. The spacious and bright living room, the sunny and warm balcony, the floor-to-ceiling curtains decorated with floral flowers, turned into the bedroom, the beautiful princess The round bed is covered with all kinds of beautiful plush toys.Ran Jingyu dragged me into the world of soft plush toys. The extremely elastic mattress bounced us up and down. The sheets made of high-quality fabrics are very comfortable on the face, with a fragrance that makes me feel at ease. The most comfortable bed, since I was a child, I didn't know that the bed would be so comfortable that people couldn't leave it. I just wanted to fall into it deeply and fall asleep without waking up!
We rolled happily, head to head, face to face, smiling happily,
"Welcome to my world!"
From this, I entered a place that could become a palace, and also entered another world, the world of Ran Jingyu, the world that changed my life and destiny.

"Dang Dang Dang" knock on the door
Ran Jingyu got up and opened the door, and came in to teach the younger woman who was the servant at the door, with delicate features and quick eyes, and entered in front of the fruit plate and milk, put away the things and said to Ran Jingyu, "Miss, the master is already on his way home."
"Well, I see, he will call me when he arrives, let's go out!"
"Yes"
The young woman nodded respectfully, glanced at me before leaving, raised her eyebrows in puzzlement, and showed doubts on her face, she bowed her head and closed the door and left.
"Is your father coming back?"
"Well, the last time I saw him was two months ago, and I don't know if I will stay at home for two more days this time."
Ran Jingyu pierced an apple with a fork and handed it to me, her expression was a bit lonely, which made people feel distressed, she was not as happy as she looked!
"Forget it, let's not talk, let's go, take you to see my cloakroom."
"cloakroom?"
I was wondering, do I still need a special room for clothes and hats?One box is enough for my clothes for the four seasons.
But the scene in front of me once again impacted my world view. The so-called cloakroom is exactly the same size as the bedroom. The wardrobe embedded on the wall is full of colorful clothes, accessories, bags, and shoes on the entire wall.
I will no longer be surprised that she never wears clothes again. The three big boxes that once surprised the whole dormitory are nothing compared to these. The luxury of the princess in the fairy tale is nothing more than that!
But I forgot that there are princesses in real life, such as this person in front of me!
"These are the new seasons of some foreign brands, and the shoes are all sent by my brother. He didn't know what style I like, so he bought some of them, and many of them have never been worn. His vision, I really can't compliment it."
Ran Jingyu's slender fingers slid across one by one, and finally stopped a long white cotton dress with lace trim on the cuffs and skirt, which made the simple style look full of design.
"This one is good, this kind of elegant and clean one is the most suitable for you, go and change it!"
I was wheeled into a fitting room behind a large mirror, overwhelmed by the nice touch of the fabric.
yes!I am always overwhelmed by everything about her!
The girl in the mirror was white, pure, and exquisite. Her delicate skin reflected a white halo in the warm light. I tried to smile to confirm that it was me.
Ran Jingyu stood and watched for a long time, but did not dare to go forward.
"Be careful, you are really an angel that fell from the sky!"
Ran Jingyu casually pulled off the leather ring that bound my long hair, and the smooth long hair unfolded and fell like a waterfall. A spring breeze blew through the window and gently brushed the long hair. I looked at Ran Jingyu shyly.
She looked at me blankly, then came over suddenly and tied my hair up again.
"Promise me that no one will see you with your hair down!"
I was very puzzled by what she said, but she looked serious and emphasized again,
"Remember?"
I seem to understand and nod my head in agreement!
"Miss, the master is back."
The young woman came in and saw me with my eyes widened after changing clothes. She couldn't hide her surprise and nodded secretly, as if the question in her heart had been answered!
The tall and heavy black wooden door made people feel oppressed. Ran Jingyu pushed the door open, interrupting the conversation of the people inside.
The traditional Chinese decoration in the room is low-key and elegant, and the exquisite wooden furniture is full of profound cultural heritage, but the oppressive light makes me feel the coolness behind me. I lower my head and follow slowly, not even breathing Become gentle, even a little sound will disturb this condensed silence!
The man in the front seat, Ran Zhenhai, is expressionless and unsmiling. The stern gaze in the huge oil painting self-portrait behind him is unwavering. Although he has abandoned the army for many years, the soldier's decisive and tenacious temperament has not diminished.
The man's indifferent expression changed instantly when he saw Ran Jingyu, with a bright smile and eyes full of kindness.
Ran Jingyu walked around the desk and walked to Ran Zhenhai's side, took his hand and smiled sweetly, the father and daughter talked with each other with a smile, a picture of a loving father and a filial daughter was so warm and enviable.
The others pushed away, leaving space for the father and daughter.
When Ran Jingyu mentioned me, Ran Zhenhai raised his head and looked at me who was standing quietly in the distance, put away his warm smiling face, and his calm voice was very penetrating,
"Take good care of Xiaojing in the future."
I nod repeatedly like a sheep,
"You go out first!"
Ran Zhenhai didn't want to waste the time of second glance.
Ran Jingyu nodded to me with a bright smile.
I let out a sigh of relief and exited the room.
When passing through the corridor, I was noticed by a half-closed door. From the gap in the door, I could see that the room was very empty, and it didn’t seem to be inhabited. There should be many empty rooms in such a big house. The reason why I was caught The attraction is because of an oil painting on the wall.
In the painting, the old man is wearing a violet satin cheongsam, with a noble and elegant temperament, and a warm pearl necklace hanging on his long neck. He is still well maintained in his old age, and his eyes are calm and calm, showing the elegance and tranquility of the head of a wealthy family.
Later I learned that the person in the painting was Ran Jingyu's grandmother. She was a daughter of a famous family, and she was highly accomplished in oil painting and enjoyed a high reputation.
During the Anti-Japanese War, I advised my father to donate all the family property, and I also participated in the post-war support. I met tough and upright soldiers at work. In the era of wars, this kind of love cannot last long, but it will not change until death.
Ran Jingyu showed me the wedding photo of the two old people. It was taken hastily by my grandfather before going to the battlefield. It is the only souvenir. My grandfather was also from a wealthy family. He stayed abroad in his early years and went to an orthodox military academy. Ritual sense.
Accompanied by Ran Jingyu before going abroad, we returned to the remote mountain village again.
I knelt in front of the tombstone I was stroking, weeping so hard that Ran Jingyu hugged me tightly and comforted me silently.
Tombstones are extravagant in a barren mountain village, and only respectable people in the village will raise funds to ask the old master in the village to carve one. This is the money left by Ran Jingyu, and the old party secretary invited someone to carve it.
Under Ran Jingyu's comfort, I gradually calmed down.
"My parents are honest and responsible people. My father went to work in the city, and when he came back, he especially supported me in going to school. He said that I must be admitted to the school in the city and that I was not allowed to be like other girls in the village. After studying at school for two years, he worked as a farmer at home after knowing a few words, waiting to grow up and get married, and lived in this mountain all his life, suffering from hardship and poverty. In order to earn more money, he went down the mine, and ended up on that stormy night ···When he was caught, his body was already stiff. Although I was young at the time, I also understood what my father's departure meant to our family. In that case, my mother still did not let me give up my studies. She was illiterate Doing all the tedious and heavy work, with meager income, she always believes that as long as she works hard, she will gain something. She could have found a man and remarried, but she did not want any possibility of becoming an obstacle for me to go to school. She is very hardworking and stubborn, and never allows others to show mercy. She also affects me in the same way. So, Jing Yu, I just swore in front of my parents' grave that I can't guarantee it for the rest of my life. I will use ten years to repay you for my love. good."
Seeing that she didn't respond, I continued with firm eyes,
"Ten years is not enough, 20 years, this is my promise to you."
Ran Jingyu took me into her arms lovingly, and they pressed their foreheads together.
"Fool, the best thing I do to you is that I don't need you to do anything in return."
"I'm serious, it's the only thing I can do right now."
"Five years! Stay with me within five years and don't leave."
"Yeah!" I nodded vigorously and solemnly promised.
Under the setting sun, the two of us hugged each other tightly, our eyes were full of tenderness, but we each had our own thoughts!
I thought that five years would be enough time for Ran Jingyu to get used to her existence, making it impossible for her to let go.
However, Ran Jingyu thought that it would take five years to find a reason to submit to herself and no longer love her so deeply, so that she could let me leave freely.
This year, I was 18 years old and Ran Jingyu was 18 years old.
As we walked, I was talking about this mountain full of childhood memories, the small hill not far away, where I often played with the neighbors’ brothers and sisters. More than ten years later, the hillside is still like that, and we have grown up. When I grow up, the brothers and sisters in the neighborhood think they are already married and have children!
For mountain villages where farming is heavy, it is very important to start a family and have children early.
We didn't come at the right time, the mountains in autumn are the most magnificent, and it is also the season when people feel the harvest.
During the autumn harvest season, groups of pheasants and hares in the mountains will come out to steal the fruits of farmers’ labor. The old branch secretary will form a hunting team to go into the mountains to hunt game. While peeling and killing, it was deliciously cooked for an entire afternoon, and everyone happily shared and ate, which was a lively scene.
At that time, the meat was really plentiful and delicious, and the laughter spread far, far.
I closed my eyes and felt the warm wind in early summer, reminiscing about all the good things at that time.
Ran Jingyu gently pinched my nose and said with a smile,
"Little greedy cat, you will have to eat your meat after following me."
I point to the halfway up the mountain
"There are the most fruit trees there. When Wanmu was a child, he often climbed up the tree to pick fruit to eat. When I was young, I always suffered from stomach ache. When the red bayberry was ripe, my mother would flood some red bayberry, which was enough for me to eat for a year."
Speaking of my nose turning sour again, Ran Jingyu hugged my shoulders, I raised my smiling face to reassure her, and pointed to the distance and said,
"I remember one time when I ran too far and it was dark, everyone in the village came out to look for it. In the end, the old yellow dog of the old party secretary's family found us. That dog was not as friendly as the old party secretary. ’ screamed, we were so scared that we climbed up the tree and dared not come down, and when we saw our mother, we were aggrieved and cried like ‘wow’!”
Ran Jingyu looked at me with a smile, but she held my hand even harder, letting me lean on her shoulder, as if telling me that if I was wronged in the future, she would be my reliance.
"Although the life in the mountains is poor and heavy, but the heart is simple and simple, which is why I always can't get along with my classmates. It's another way of getting along. I can't handle the mixed interpersonal relationship. I don't want to go along with it and I don't want to be changed, if I become another person, then it's not me!"
"Don't worry, you don't need to change in your future life, just be yourself, that simple, beautiful you."
Looking at the distant mountains, pure air and pure folk customs can produce pure people, but how can we maintain this purity and not be polluted! ~~

Back at school, compared to Ran Jingyu's big boxes and small bags, I only have a few clothes and a small wooden box for my mother in a bag.
The parting breath of the dormitory was only reflected in Hu Jing. She cried and hugged me and kept telling me to be safe. Zhang Yiman looked out the window sadly. She still couldn't figure out that in her eyes, this remote mountain village was destined to A girl who has been mediocre and inconspicuous all her life can even see the end of her life at a glance, but still has the life to study abroad. That is something that a child like her who grew up in a good family in the city cannot imagine!
Ran Jingyu put down the bag in her hand, and distributed the clothes inside to the two of them. Uncharacteristically, Zhang Yiman immediately jumped out of bed without excitement and carefully selected.
Her self-esteem does not allow herself to behave like this at this moment, and she can't catch up and doesn't want to be underestimated.
After many years, she will find that the only thing she can't pass is her own.
On the day of boarding the plane, Ran Zhenhai did not come to see him off, he went to the United States farther away, Ran Jingyu was a little disappointed
