Du Penhong kept retreating until his body reached the doorpost of the shrine. She shook her head, her mind still digesting what Xiao Jiu had just said. At this moment, she felt that the world was starting to become chaotic and strange. Why would a person's memory suddenly turn back to ten years ago and then combine the past with the present in a confused state?
Moreover, most importantly, she did not remember anyone like Xiao Jiu in her memories at all!
Du Pian Hong raised his head and looked carefully at Xiao Jiu's eyebrows and face. He was once again very sure that he had never met Xiao Jiu when he was eight! However, if Xiao Jiu's sugar doll, cotton candy, and flower buds were linked together…
Du Pian Hong carefully recalled, feeling that there was a blurry afterimage appearing in his mind from time to time.
From time to time, a series of ethereal voices replayed in his mind. These voices seemed to be telling a story: "Who are you?"
"Let's play together."
"Candy figures are both good-looking and delicious."
"This ballad is interesting, right? My big brother taught it to me.”
"The cotton candy is soft. Are you really going to give it to me?”
" I promised you that I would still wait for you here on New Year's Eve next year…"
"Yes, if it's you, it will.”
The afterimages in his memories began to become clearer and clearer as he continued to recall. What appeared in his mind was no longer a fragmented fragment, but a complete picture.
She remembered. She remembered that she had indeed met a boy on New Year's Eve when she was eight years old. However, she was very sure that that person was not Xiao Jiu at all!
That was because the person who accompanied her at that time was clearly a boy dressed in a luxurious robe.
In his memory, the young man was dressed in a luxurious robe, and his entire body was filled with nobility. Not to mention their appearance, just the temperament of the two of them was clearly different. However, Xiao Jiu was so sure that it was that youth, and he even knew the exact location where the "flower buds" were buried. From the looks of it, he was undoubtedly that youth.
"Why did you bury the scorpion in this place? Flower Lady will be unhappy if she knows." Du Pianhong only treated it as if time was still stuck in the " Five Years of the Great Tang Dynasty " as she patiently chatted with Xiao Jiu.
"Because the place I live in doesn't allow me to bring these things. Therefore, he could only bury it here. Would Flower Lady really be unhappy? Is she not playing with me because of this?”Xiao Jiu lowered its head and said with a trembling voice. He thought that he was still a teenager from ten years ago, easily crying for someone.
Time seemed to have stopped ten years ago. One was a flower girl, and the other was a young man dressed in luxurious clothes.
Du Shanhong raised his head and looked at the sky high up in the sky. His thoughts couldn't help but drift.
She still remembered that night ten years ago, when she first met that young man.
That night, on New Year's Eve, the lights were dim.
At that time, she was standing at the entrance of the shrine, anxiously waiting for someone. Unexpectedly, she saw him standing in front of the Buddha statue. It was as if that youth had suddenly appeared in her world without any warning.
"Hey, who are you?" The girl walked up to the boy and sized him up. She saw that the boy was dressed in brocade from head to toe, and the jade pendant on his waist was many times more expensive than the one she was wearing.
The boy didn't answer. He looked at the girl with the same gaze and then remained silent. He turned around and stared at the statue in front of him.
"Let's play together." The girl felt that the boy might be afraid of strangers, just like the little white rabbit she had just raised. He needed to be patiently coaxed before he could get close to her. So she said patiently,"Let's play together."”
The boy was still looking straight at him, but the stiffness on his face was beginning to loosen a little. He moved a little on the spot, and after feeling bored, he suddenly said,"If you can make me…happy, I can reluctantly accompany you.”
"Yes, I am. Then, you should eat this candy figurine first.”The girl took out a pig-headed candy doll from her sleeve pocket and said with a smile,"Big Brother even said that this pig head looks like me!”
The boy took the sugar figurine, and his cold expression quickly changed into a bright smile." Haha, you do look like her!”However, he only took the candy and did not eat it.
"Candy people are both good-looking and delicious.”When the girl saw that the boy had put down his hand without any intention of tasting it, she thought that the boy was disgusted by these folk things.
Seeing that the boy was silent, the girl said directly,"Why don't I teach you a folk song about New Year's Eve? Listen. Twenty-three days, sweet melon sticky; Twenty-four days, clean the house; At the age of twenty-five, the ground millet was pushed out, and at the age of twenty-six, the hanging meat was removed. Twenty-seven, slaughter a chicken; Twenty-eight, put the face to the hair; On the twenty-ninth day of the month, the head of the fish was steamed. On the thirtieth night, he stayed overnight and twisted on the first day of the New Year.'My big brother taught me this. How is it? Is it fun?”
The boy didn't answer. He just silently wrapped the sugar figurine in silk and carefully placed it in his pocket. Then he said,"Since you invited me, a sugar figurine, and taught me a folk song, I'll give you something."”As he spoke, he took off the jade pendant on his waist and wanted to give it to the girl.
The girl quickly stopped him and then shouted in panic,"How can this be! How can my sugar figurine compare to your jade pendant! Aren't you at a disadvantage? Why don't…why don't you give me cotton candy?”
The boy nodded and turned to run away. However, a group of people appeared in front of the girl again, holding the cotton candy that the girl had requested.
Soft white cotton candy…
"The cotton candy is soft. Are you really going to give it to me?”The girl asked carefully and only accepted it when she saw the boy nod.
The girl took a bite of the cotton candy and exhaled in satisfaction. She reached out and handed the marshmallow to the boy. A happy smile blossomed on her face." Here, good things must be shared together."”
The boy reached out and took it, then fell silent for a moment." These things are so dirty.”Although he said that, he had already started eating. He didn't even realize that the place he had bitten was the place where the girl had just bitten.
He only knew that he was very happy and blissful now.
"What's your name?" The boy put down the marshmallow in his hand and carefully wiped his lips with a handkerchief embroidered with golden edges.
"Flower Lady." The girl thought for a moment and said shyly," What about you?”
"Sheng Minghao. Call me Sheng Minghao. Will you come again in the future?" The boy asked carefully, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
The girl thought for a while before nodding."Yes, if it's you, it will.”
But…
The girl never came again.
