Ruyi lowered her head and looked at the rough doll in her hand. The cotton wool of the doll whose head had been torn off was turned out, and as expected, there was something like paper stuffed inside. She carefully took out the cotton wool, and then unfolded the letter paper.
The letter paper has become slightly yellowed and moldy, and the ink has smeared in some places and smudged a small area, but fortunately it does not affect reading.
Ruyi read it word by word, and after reading only a few sentences, her tears became wet.
Ruyi: Seeing a letter is like seeing a person. When you read this letter, I will probably no longer be in Jimo. The world has gone through vicissitudes, the people have been displaced, and the imperial court has recruited soldiers. I have become a soldier of the Celestial Dynasty and will soon travel with the army.
Xijiang, serve the country.
Fire and water are merciless, and swords have no eyes. After this farewell, we may never see each other again.
I have no words to express my feelings, so I can only express my feelings in letters. Regardless of whether you can see them or not, they can be regarded as my sustenance.
My mother died tragically when I was young, and my father was a scumbag who never cared about me. I was always lonely until I met you. During the seven years in the Military Commissary Department, you and I spent time together. We ate and slept together, and fell asleep listening to your breathing.
You have become my habit. To me, you are a brother, a sister, a family member, a friend, a confidant, a beauty, the one in my heart, and the most important thing in life. No one can compare with me.
I'm sorry to say, I fell in love with you before you were a girl. At that time, I was still ignorant for a period of time. I thought I had a serious illness. I also felt that I was disgusting, and I even stopped.
Sleeve habit... I later learned the truth, and while I breathed a sigh of relief, I also fell in love with you even more deeply.
Attachment, dependence, kindness, habit. These words alone cannot describe my affection for you.
I still remember that after we finished working during the day, we would sneak out at night, climb up to the tile-roofed house, sit on the roof and watch the moon, and look forward to the future after retirement. At that time, you said that you would take me back to your hometown with you, and you said that you would introduce me to my childhood friends.
My partner met me, and you said you would make lotus leaf cakes for me. That kind of joy is something I have never felt before, do you know... You, Ruyi, are all I want in this world.
The illusory gold and silver mountains, official positions and power, and peerless beauty are all inferior to your reality. I can feel your smile, your temperature, and your breath.
Holding my son's hand and growing old together with him, if possible, is what I look forward to in this life.
If you see this letter, then we will seal our relationship with this letter. When I take off my armor and return, I will marry you and promise you a life of peace. If I unfortunately die for my country, then forget about me and find someone to marry.
If you haven't seen it, it doesn't matter...if you get married when the war is over, I will give you the greatest blessing in the name of my brother. If you have not yet left the cabinet, then I will definitely find you and propose marriage to you.
Don't miss it, cherish it.
Qin Xiao
Ruyi's tears rolled down, and her vision became blurry. The words were blurred into one piece, and she couldn't read a single word clearly. The tears at this time were of grievance and joy, at least... the hardships were finally over, at least she knew that these years
My deep love was not in vain.
Ruyi cried so much that Qin Xiao felt distressed. He held her shoulders and turned her around.
"What should I do..." Ruyi murmured.
"Well? What should I do? Silly girl, stop crying. Look at you, you look like a little cat. Today is someone else's wedding day, but you and I are crying here with the door closed. It's really inappropriate." Qin Xiao
