As night fell, Yucheng ushered in the first rain since late autumn.

Sui Xinlei didn't bring an umbrella when she came out. It was inevitable that she would catch an autumn rain on her way home.

He looked at the men and women running past him in a hurry: some stretched out their hands to hold their hair while hailing taxis on the side of the road, while others covered their heads with the small objects they carried around them.

Running around looking for a temporary shelter from the rain along the street...

Although their methods of covering up the rain are different, one thing is the same - no one wants to be drowned in the rain.

But Sui Xinlei didn't care at all. She didn't speed up her pace because of the sudden autumn rain. She still walked slowly on the street at her original pace, letting the autumn rain rain on her body.

Different from the summer thunderstorms, which are so wild and menacing; the autumn rains are the same as the spring ones, and they are also lingering and pathos.

The only difference is that when autumn rain wets people's bodies, it will give people a stimulating coolness that penetrates the skin, which is bleak; while spring rain is different, it brings heart-warming refreshment.

It's mixed with earthy smell and sunshine.

There is a layer of autumn rain and a layer of coolness, which is true at all. The slightest coolness immediately penetrates into the skin through the rain.

Thick layers of rain wetted her long hair, then her cheeks and clothes, one after another...

Qiu Yu is not as domineering as Xia Yu's steel-making, but it is also as gentle as wrapping around the fingers, which should not be underestimated: After a while, Sui Xinlei's whole body was wet. After a sniff, her whole body was exuding the fragrance of Qiu Yu.

smell.

But at this moment, Sui Xinlei loved this smell so much. She was walking on the road like this, not avoiding or covering up, and accepting the baptism of the autumn rain openly.

Unable to help herself, Sui Xinlei stretched out her right hand. She opened her palm with her palm facing up. Thin and dense raindrops fell on her palm, but they quickly turned into water droplets, and then slid down along the lines of her palm.

.

As if out of fun, Sui Xinlei suddenly raised her head, closed her eyes, and faced the baptism of the autumn rain.

At this moment, his arms were stretched out at the same time. There was darkness in front of his eyes. Sui Xinglei couldn't see it, but he could feel the sound of the autumn rain hitting his palms.

Naturally, Sui Xinlei would not see it. Her behavior, which seemed extremely weird to outsiders, attracted puzzled looks from passers-by. It seemed that there was a thin sound coming next to her, but it was quickly blocked by people on the road.

The honking of cars speeding by was drowned out.

No one will understand, and no one will know, that this woman soaked in the autumn rain is missing her father in this way.

Because it was her father who made her fall in love with Qiu Yu, and also because it was her father who made her understand the feeling of being baptized by the rain.

She remembered that there was a classmate in the class at that time, and her family was very rich. Every winter and summer vacation, that classmate’s parents would take her to travel to various places. And every time at the beginning of a new semester, she

She would always tell her classmates about her travel experiences. There was no student in the class who did not envy her. What the classmates envied her even more was that she could fly on a plane that was a dream for ordinary people at that time.

And she secretly envied that female classmate: she dreamed that one day she could fly on a plane and soar like a bird in the blue sky and white clouds.

At that time, even in her dreams, she would dream that she was sitting on a plane, and through the glass window of the plane, she could see layers of clouds like marshmallows; she would smile sweetly in her sleep: "Flying on a plane"

It feels so good!

This is a secret that has always been hidden in her heart: she has never dared to ask for it, or that one day she will actually be able to fly.

Because she knew the situation in her family at that time, she would not mention it in front of her father and mother.

Therefore, she is sensible and regards this as a dream. When she is sad and sad, she can use this to comfort herself.

She remembered that it was after school. She went home as usual, but when she walked to the school gate, she saw a familiar figure. She actually saw her father standing among many parents picking up their children, wearing work clothes. He saw

He looked at himself and was waving towards himself with a smile.

She was suspicious in her heart, but at the same time she was extremely happy. Because her parents had never come to school to pick her up, and she walked back by herself every time she came home from school.

Sometimes, when she sees other classmates with their parents coming to pick them up, but she is just walking back alone, she feels a little sad in her heart. How she hopes that once, even just once, she can

The father or mother can appear at the school gate and wave to him.

She knew that her parents were very busy at work and struggling to make a living, so she was sensible and did not tell her father or mother about her little wish.

I always walk home by myself, but why today?

She walked up to her father and frowned, but his father smiled, took her schoolbag, put it on his shoulder, took her hand and walked home.

When he was almost at the door of the house, his father suddenly stopped, squatted down, and pointed at his back towards her.

She understood this secret code: it was the secret code her father used to carry her when she was very young.

He furrowed his brows with a puzzled look on his face, but his father had already pushed her small body onto his back, and then with another forceful movement, she sat completely on his broad shoulders.

Man, he got high all of a sudden.

She will always remember what her father said that day. He said that he cannot afford to let our girl fly once, but he will work hard to make money to help our girl realize this wish.

She remembered that when her father said this sentence, his father did not look at her, his eyes were always facing forward.

It turns out that my father knew this little secret that he had always kept deep in his heart!

But when was that? Was it heard by his father when he was talking in his sleep and when Zheng came in to cover him with a quilt?

She just sat on her father's shoulder, staring blankly at the back of his head.

At that time, maybe she couldn't understand what kind of mood her father had when he said those words to her; but when she grows up and thinks back to her father's words that day, she will find: At that time, her

How bitter the father felt when he said those words! It was the bitterness of being powerless as a father who could not give his daughter what she wanted!

She also remembered that when her father turned his head to look at her again, a bright smile appeared on his face again: He smiled and said to himself, girl, daddy will let you feel the feeling of making an airplane today.

As soon as she finished speaking, she had not yet reacted. Her father quickly ran forward, and the wind caused by running hit him head on.

At first, because she had not reacted for a while, she was still a little nervous, and her two little hands tightly tightened her father's shoulder collar.

However, slowly, she adapted to the cool feeling brought to her by the wind, and also adapted to the super block feeling brought to her by the speed. It really felt like a bird flying! She seemed to be no longer nervous.

, sitting on her father's shoulders, she cheered.

Girl, does it feel like flying on an airplane?

Like! She responded loudly with an extremely bright smile on her face.

It was really like, very much like the feeling of flying on an airplane. Her father took her all the way forward without stopping, and she seemed to be getting more and more excited:

I'm on a plane! I'm on a plane!

She is announcing to the world that she wants to share all the joy and excitement in her heart with the world.

She will always remember the feeling of flying on a plane for the first time.

My skin seemed to feel a slight chill, and the back of my hands also felt wet. When I looked at the road again, I found that there was a little moisture on the road: It was raining at this time.

It's an autumn rain! The original excitement suddenly seemed to be wet by the rain.

Perhaps she felt her loss. Her father's speed, which had originally slowed down, picked up again at this moment. Moreover, she saw that the direction in which her father was running was not the direction back to her home.

Just when I was about to ask, I heard my father say in front:

It feels great to fly in the rain!

How does it feel to fly on a plane in the rain? Before she had time to doubt what her father said, the next second, she really felt the "great feeling of flying in the rain" that her father said.

Sometimes, the father would deliberately tilt his body to run to the left; sometimes he would deliberately tilt his body to run to the right; sometimes he would accelerate gradually, and sometimes he would slow down;

And she sat on her father's shoulder and completely let go. Her two little hands no longer held her father's shoulder collar. She spread her arms to both sides. At this moment, she looked even more like him.

A little bird spreads its wings high, facing the wind and rain, soaring among the clouds.

She raised her head slightly, slowly closed her eyes, and felt the autumn rain coming towards her face.

She couldn't see it, but she didn't feel any uneasiness because she knew her father would always protect her;

She could hear her father's shouting voice ringing in her ears. She knew that it was her father singing. As long as he encountered something happy or excited, his father would not be able to restrain his inner excitement.

And sing a song.

In the autumn rain, the two fathers and daughters shouted excitedly, completely ignoring the surprised and incomprehensible looks of passers-by: perhaps in their eyes, they would regard her and her father as two lunatics, one big and one small!

But, so what? How can they understand the hearty feeling of being baptized by the autumn rain?

When they got home, the father and daughter had already been soaked and turned into two "drowned rats." Like the passers-by, the mother's reaction was one of shock and confusion. She also regarded the two father and daughter in front of her as "drowned rats."

I have two mental illnesses. Of course, there is also a deep dissatisfaction among these emotions.

While her mother was wiping her wet hair and body with a clean towel, she was complaining to her father, who was also wiping her body and hair with a towel. The blame in her tone was so obvious.

According to the mother's words at the time: It's okay for the child to be young and ignorant. You are already a father and you still follow the child to misbehave. What if you catch a cold?

She remembered that when her mother was complaining and looking for a change of clothes for herself, she made a face at her father, and then the father and daughter looked at each other and smiled.

She still remembered that her mother was thinking about her all night long, and even during dinner, she never gave her father a good look.

But her father didn't take it seriously. She was naturally laughing happily.

But after that time, her father and she had a secret that only the two of them knew: that is, if there is a rainy day in the future, they will enjoy the autumn rain as they did today.

.

Of course, this secret cannot be known to her mother, his wife. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.

From then on, she fell in love with Qiu Yu, and even more with the feeling of being soaked in the rain...

That beautiful memory has always been treasured deep in Sui Xinlei's memory. After each recall, she carefully treasured it. She always believed that this was the treasure in her heart.

No one knew that Sui Xinlei was venting her sadness in this way. Because she knew that from now on, there would be no one in the world who liked being exposed to the rain as much as she did.
To be continued...
