After comforting Cai'er, Cheng Hao sighed, glanced at the increasingly gloomy sky, shook off the snowflakes on his body, and turned back to the shop.
Inside the store, a pot of charcoal fire was roasting, which was much warmer than outside.
The old man was half lying on the reclining chair, warming the fire, shivering all over, looking very afraid of the cold.
Cheng Hao went to the back room and hugged a blanket to cover the old man, but even so, the old man was still trembling all over, as if his body was about to die.
A look of worry appeared on Cheng Hao's face. Since the beginning of winter, the old man's body has been getting worse day by day. Judging from the situation, he can't survive this winter.
Hao'er...
Seeing Cheng Hao sitting beside him, the old man forced himself to sit up, with a pale smile on his face.
Old man, I can't hold it anymore... Before I left, I did one last thing for you... It's just this thing... You may not be happy, but I still did it !
The old man coughed a few times, and tremblingly took out a red envelope-shaped thing from his clothes, and Cheng Hao saw the two large characters on it at a glance—marriage letter!
This matter, I have already discussed this matter with the old Lan's family next door... Just yesterday, this matter was finally settled. I know you will not agree, so I can only make up my own mind and marry you and the adopter. My son's marriage, privately...cough cough...
Cheng Hao remained silent, he didn't know what to say, after all, the other party really treated him as a relative, so doing these things couldn't be said to be wrong.
After a burst of violent coughing, the old man's face suddenly became rosy, as if returning to the light, he sat up straight suddenly, and firmly grasped Cheng Hao's arm, his face full of reluctance.
I'm lucky. When I'm old, I can still meet you and help me to take care of my old age... I don't want you, old man, to be alone all my life like me. The feeling of loneliness is really... terrible ...
very scary......
As if exhaling his last breath, the old man lay down slowly, with a relieved smile on the corner of his mouth, and slowly closed his eyes, except that the arm that was holding onto Cheng Hao never let go, it seemed that the last clinging Read, still can't let him go!
Cheng Hao didn't make a sound, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, helped the old man tidy up his clothes, dipped a towel in warm water, helped the old man wipe his body, and helped him finish the last journey with dignity.
After tidying up his grooming, Cheng Hao took down all the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, unfolded them one by one, and spread them on the old man like layers of quilts.
I know you like these calligraphy and paintings, take them on the road together, and hope that in the next life, you will not be so lonely again!
For these years, Cheng Hao has never known the old man's name, but only knows that his surname is Li. He seems to have suffered from love trauma when he was young, and has never married a wife and had children since then.
Cheng Hao knew that the old man thought that he was like him, and he was unwilling to marry for life because of love, so he made a decision without authorization and made a marriage contract for himself, not wanting to let himself be like him, lonely for most of his life.
…
This year's snow was much heavier than previous years. It snowed heavily for two days in a row, enough to bury a person's calf in it.
Fortunately, although the snow is heavy, there is no wind.
With the help of the neighbors around, Cheng Hao seemed to have aged a lot after burying the old man. He often sat alone in the empty shop in the middle of the night, and sat all night.
He still loves calligraphy and painting as always. Sometimes it takes a whole day to paint, and sometimes Cai'er doesn't have time to come over to deliver food to him, so he doesn't even eat, and keeps painting. It seems that only when painting, that A deep sense of loneliness keeps him away from him.
Loneliness is the feeling that Cheng Hao has always had. This feeling will not be reduced because of the company of the old man and Cai'er before. The feeling that he is out of tune with the whole world, as if he is in an illusory world, makes him unable to express it.
This kind of indescribable loneliness, where everyone is drunk and I am alone, is much more terrifying than being alone.
…
Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past three years, maybe it was because she was shy because she knew about the marriage contract, or to avoid suspicion. In short, the number of times Cai'er came to Cheng Hao's place became less and less. Bring food to Cheng Hao.
In the past three years, the name of Cheng Hao's painting fairy has spread throughout the capital. It is said that after seeing his paintings, a fairy had a rare epiphany, from an ordinary fairy to a high-ranking fairy. Vast, it is all admirable.
Reciprocate, the immortal passed down the decree, and officially bestowed on Cheng Hao the title of Immortal Painting, and under the protection of the immortal, whoever provokes Cheng Hao will die!
Cheng Hao didn't have any objection to this, at least, there was no such incident in the past when some wealthy families relied on their power to forcefully buy paintings, which made his life much more peaceful.
Time is the most irresistible force in the world. Cheng Hao's appearance has also changed from three years ago. He no longer looks like a young man, but a middle-aged man, with a wrinkle gradually appearing on his face.
This day, it was another cold winter night, and the snowflakes falling from the sky covered the ground outside the store with a thick layer. Cheng Hao continued to sit cross-legged in front of the desk, preparing to paint, as usual, by the fire.
Squeak!
The door of the shop was opened, and Cai'er's pretty and juicy face poked in. When she saw Cheng Hao, she blushed immediately, lowered her head, turned around and waved back.
Daddy, come in, uncle is in the house.
Cai'er's father came in with a smile on his face, carrying a wooden box. After seeing Cheng Hao, he asked a little cautiously, Brother Cheng, are you not busy?
Cheng Hao nodded, put down the paintbrush in his hand, got up and walked over.
After exchanging a few simple greetings, the two sat down at the dinner table. Cai'er quickly took the wooden box from her father, opened the lid, and saw a few plates of delicate dishes and two pots of rice wine inside. .
Cheng Hao quietly watched Cai'er bring the food and wine to the table without speaking, and the atmosphere was a bit dull for a while.
Well, Brother Cheng, Master Li has passed away for three years, and I didn't urge you to marry Cai'er before. Now that Cai'er is a sixteen-year-old girl, it's time to get married. Do you think we should get married? Set a date for Cai'er to come over? After a slight silence, Cai'er's father was the first to mention the marriage.
Cheng Hao didn't answer Boss Lan's question, but turned to look at Cai'er, What about you, what's your opinion?
Parents' order, matchmaker's words, since Daddy has made a marriage contract for Cai'er, Cai'er will naturally obey! Lan Cai'er's face was already blushing a lot, she lowered her head, and she looked like a small family jade. look like.
Cheng Hao sighed, there are some things he doesn't want to do, but now, he still has to do them.
Cai'er, you understand my situation. If you wanted to marry a wife and start a family, you would have done so long ago. Why wait until now? Marry me, and you will not be happy!
