15. Chapter 15 White Robe Impermanence

April 21st.

I woke up very early, and the soft sunlight of the spring morning could already shine on my bedside.

At this time last year, on such a bright day, Qingqing secretly brought back a paper kite called "Flying Swallow Soaring to the Sky". Although I know that running and jumping like flying a paper kite is not something a lady should do, but in my heart

Still very excited.

I put on my embroidered shoes, held the bed and slowly walked to the embroidered couch in front of the window.

A month ago, on the day when I was about to stand up, my tenth senior brother placed an embroidered couch under my window.

The location of this embroidered couch is really wonderful. When I lay on this embroidered couch and raised my head slightly, I could see the Jingshui Lake in the distance.

Although it is already April and the grass is green and green at the foot of the mountain, the Jingshui Residence where I live is located halfway up the Taixi Mountain, so spring comes later than when it comes down the mountain. At this time, by the Jingshui Lake, the willow trees are blooming with tender green.

The new shoots of color have not yet reached the calm and tranquil surface of Jingshui Lake.

When I opened the window, the breeze blew towards me with a slight warmth. My heart felt relaxed and I was very excited.

I thought, although I can no longer fly kites, as long as I can sit in the courtyard, bask in the sun and blow in the warm wind, I will be satisfied!

But the tenth senior brother said that the master gave special instructions before he went out, and I couldn't leave the room until the old man returned to the mountain.

Well, that being the case, if I could just read a few volumes of unofficial histories, my time in the mountains wouldn't be so boring.

When I was still at home, I secretly collected a dozen playbooks about the love affairs of talented men and beauties.

Years ago, I came to Taixi Mountain and wanted to take these notebooks up the mountain. However, my elder brother said that I was so weak and my mind was so heavy, and could not be separated from these notebooks, so he cruelly took away these precious notebooks from me.

The fire burned everything.

Although I was unwilling to do so, I was unable to resist at that time.

In the past few days, the sixth to tenth senior brothers have been dancing swords by the Jingshui Lake every day, whether because I can't go out, deliberately mocking me, or something else.

Alas, I thought it would be better to look out the window from time to time than to lie in bed all day long. Therefore, in the past month, I spent most of my waking time lying on the embroidered couch, watching the lively Liu Zhi by the lake.

Ten senior brothers spent it.

Dad seems to have said that the greatest pain in the world is watching others do things you cannot do.

Now, I am tightly wrapped in a thin quilt, nestling on the embroidered couch by the window with great sadness, watching the sixth to tenth senior fellow apprentices in the distance, dancing swords in the gentle breeze in the warm sunlight. I can't go out.

The days seemed even more difficult.

Maybe I woke up too early today, or maybe I was a little bored after watching sword dancing for nearly a month. I actually leaned on this embroidered couch and fell asleep deeply. When I opened my eyes again, the sun had already turned.

Nan, I raised my eyes and looked out the window. The shadows of my senior brothers had long disappeared by Jingshui Lake.

I was thinking that Senior Brother Ten would bring me lunch in the future, but I would wake up without washing my face. This unkempt appearance was really degrading to a lady's face, so I struggled to get up from the couch.

, go and wash your face in the basin by the door.

But, maybe I was too sleepy today, and I didn’t have much strength, so my body refused to obey and fell to the embroidered couch. Before closing my eyes, I glanced at the Jingshui Lake for the last time, and this time I saw that person again.

——

The blue waves of Jingshui Lake are rippling, and the willow branches are swaying slightly in the wind. The man is standing under a willow tree with a crooked neck. He wears a white robe and a fan, and his black hair is lightly brushed, which makes him look a bit otherworldly.

I slowly closed my eyes and thought vaguely——

Bai Wuchang, you are here again...
