The light fragrance of lotus leaves floats in the wind.
If you smell it carefully and taste it slowly, you will find that the light fragrance is also mixed with a strong floral fragrance.
The fragrance is fragrant.
He almost forgot!
Qian Qian, when Qian Qian was his cousin, she liked lotus very much.
That old silk handkerchief that he had kept in a sandalwood box was embroidered with lotus flowers. Under the light blue sky, with a few white clouds, and at the bottom of the blue sky was a single lotus flower: the little lotus had just revealed its sharp corners, and dragonflies had already appeared.
Stand up.
That little silk handkerchief! On the first day he went to high school in Yunling, he put it in the left pocket of his coat, which was close to his heart.
There are some things that he doesn't want to think about, but his thoughts will always spread infinitely in the dead of night and drown him.
Some people stay in the depths of their memories and cannot get rid of them even if they want to, so they let them ferment and fill up every free moment they have.
Later, he came to Yunling, the place closest to Jingyun, no, it took him across most of Jingyun City to reach it.
At the beginning of every month, he sits on bus No. 11 or No. 19 and travels through Jingyun City.
When passing by the junior high school of Jingyun No. 1 Middle School, he couldn't help but look out the window. When he saw the girls with high ponytails coming out, he couldn't help but smile.
In that smile, he would occasionally think of the little girl deep in his memory with two braids that almost reached the sky.
He will also remember what she once said.
What I also remembered was the way she walked up to him arrogantly, poked his forehead with her finger, and asked loudly: Is it so difficult for you to marry me?
He smiled shyly: If my cousin asks me to marry, I will.
But, now, where is that girl?
Whose forehead was she poking with her finger, and who was by her side again?
Is she like the girls outside the car window, with a high ponytail, youthful and energetic, her head swaying from side to side as she walks by? Or does she have long hair that reaches her shoulders, walking indifferently among the crowd, but
Can't take people's eyes away?
What happened to her?
Do you, occasionally, think of him?
Or maybe she already has her own happy life.
Such a flamboyant, so domineering, yet so innocent, beautiful girl, because of her appearance, inspired him to continue to pursue the beautiful things in life.
Now she should have many Jingyun boys and boys who are as good as her around her, right?
And as he grew up, he gradually began to understand.
It turns out that there is a huge distance of three hundred kilometers between him and her!
Pretending to be careless, he brushed his hair from his forehead, lightly pressed the left pocket of his coat, and a vaguely wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Some people and some things stay on the day they happen and refuse to leave.
And some distances are insurmountable chasms.
Just like, many years ago, he tried his best but still failed to keep the promise!
Some things cannot be achieved by exerting all one's strength; some realities cannot be broken by hard work.
And as he grew up, he gradually understood, but he still had thoughts and stubbornness in his heart, so what could he do?
Even if there is still no result in the end, it is just another unhealed heartache caused by the recurrence of old wounds.
Six or seven years passed in a flash.
Now he is very close to Jingyun.
Even though he passed through Jingyun every month, he never saw that "her" again.
Every time he looked out the car window, he couldn't help but wonder if someone would suddenly call him out in the crowd: "Xiao Rui, kid."
When I turned around, I saw that the man was a little strange, but also familiar.
Conjecture, after all, it is his conjecture.
Time travel, he is already a sophomore in high school and has lived in this familiar yet unfamiliar city for more than a year.
The sound never came out.
Occasionally at the station, among the bustling crowd, someone would call him "Liu Ruixuan" or "Axuan".
Without turning around, he knew that those were his classmates, or a group of three, four, or two or three little girls looking at him carefully from the side.
Seeing him turn around, he happily pushed me and I pushed you. Among the girls pushing, he saw one girl whose face seemed to turn red. She looked towards him and lowered her head.
He turned his head.
I don’t know him! I don’t want to know him either!
Those were not the sounds he expected to hear.
Someone pulled the corner of his clothes.
Without looking, he knew that it was his sister who was just a freshman in high school.
Liu Xiu gently pulled the corner of his clothes and said to him casually: How about she block these noises for him from now on?
After hearing this, he was silent for a moment and looked at Liu Xiu: her eyebrows were smooth and there was no wave in her eyes.
He smiled, nodded, and looked not far away.
On the western horizon, the sunset is like a rainbow.
Just like before, he and she played together in the twilight of dusk. When they turned around, it was almost dark, so they said goodbye and made an appointment to meet again the next day.
And now, where is the person we can meet?
I got to know you yesterday, how late will I get to know you?
The afterglow of the setting sun was all over the horizon, and the No. 11 bus was approaching in such light and shadow.
Let's go. Liu Xiu reached out and held him, and walked to the No. 11 bus together.
He turned back and looked into the crowded crowd. Seeing the surprised eyes of the little girls, Liu Xiu pulled him forward.
Later, after being reminded by Liu Xiu, he suddenly began to understand that he seemed to have thought wrongly. That platform was the terminal where buses from various counties stopped at Jingyun, but "she" grew up in the center of Jingyun.
How come you get here by car?
He thought about it again and again, and he still had something to look forward to in the coming time.
His cousin is two years older than him. He is now a sophomore in high school, so his cousin should be a freshman in college.
The No. 11 and No. 19 buses stop at Jingyun Railway Station.
If my cousin went to another place to study at university, she would always pass by here.
When going home at the end of the month, Liu Xiu glanced at the No. 19 bus inadvertently, and he followed suit.
Liu Xiu said, Brother, the next two stops of the No. 19 bus are Jingyun Normal University?
He was startled after hearing this and looked at Liu Xiu, yes. What's wrong?
Liu Xiu smiled, is Jingyun Normal University the best university in our university town?
He nodded, this was known to everyone in Jingyun and Yunling.
The two most outstanding schools in Jingyun University Town are Yunling Middle School and the other is Jingyun Normal University, which is two stops away, a thousand meters away.
From Yunling Middle School to Jingyun Normal University, walk 500 meters west, turn right at the intersection, and walk another 500 meters to Jingyun Normal University.
Oh. Liu Xiu responded and looked at him with a smile on his face. Have you been to Jingyun Normal University?
He was startled for a moment, no.
The school is fully closed and only goes home once a month. Only children in Jingyun City can go home for half a day every two weeks.
He had neither the inclination nor the time to go to Jingyun Normal University for a walk. Although an intern teacher came when they were in their first year of high school, School Cao did not let the intern teacher organize a visit to Jingyun Normal University.
And he didn't like the young female teacher either.
Oh. Liu Xiu responded. A trainee teacher has come to our class. I heard that they will organize us to go for reference at the end of April.
Oh. He responded and walked towards the slowly approaching No. 11 bus.
He has not yet decided how he will choose the liberal arts classes next month.
Then will you stay in Jingyun to study in the future, or will you pass the exam? Liu Xiu followed up and asked casually.
He glanced at Liu Xiu but didn't answer.
Maybe Sister Qianqian has gone to another city? Or... Liu Xiu was halfway through what he said, but under his gaze, there was nothing to follow.
How could he not know that this was just his wishful waiting and persistence.
But since that April, since that agreement, "she" has become his concern.
As he grew up, that concern gradually changed in the passing of the sun and the moon, and she also became his lovesickness.
