The last elf

Sanjiangyuan is far away from Baisha Village, and we haven’t had much sleep in the past few days, so we couldn’t go back to Baisha Village right away, but rested for a day at Aunt Huilian’s house on the way. .

We left Sanjiangyuan at noon, and it was already afternoon when we arrived at Xujiacun. After having dinner at Aunt Huilian’s house, it was too difficult to continue the journey, so we stayed overnight. When we opened our eyes again, it was already It's morning the next day.

"The day has passed like this. It's such a comfortable life! I really want to live like this every day for the rest of my life..." I lay on the bed and rubbed my eyes and yawned again.

This time Xueying also stayed in bed. She kept tossing and turning in my arms, looking like she didn't want to get up.

"When I have something to do, I run around doing this and that, and when I don't have anything to do, I roll around in bed and get eaten to death. Aren't we talking about the two of us? Yesterday we were fighting day and night in Liudaogou, and today we went to Xujiacun to eat and drink. Sleep, which life do you prefer?"

Xueying murmured and shook her head, then buried her head in my arms and stopped moving. After a while, there was no sound at all, and she fell asleep again.

This girl’s sleep quality is really high! I was tossing and turning just now, but after a while I fell asleep again. Is this because I have become a sperm? !

Aunt Huilian had already prepared breakfast, but we didn’t get up until :. We ate breakfast mixed with lunch. I have to say that this legendary mixed breakfast and lunch meal was really fascinating, but many years later I I don’t think so anymore, because in college, I changed from three meals a day to two meals a day. To put it bluntly, I asked for it. Everyone knows about college life.

"Hey! Be energetic! It's only the afternoon! Do you still want to go home?"

No matter how nice this place is, it is still not home.

When we talk about home, we think of our warm little nest, the days when the family reunited in the past, and the life of everyone laughing and laughing together...

We must go home!

"Let's go! Now! Go to Baisha Village to meet Rongrong and Ah Li. I believe they have been waiting for us for a long time."

We found Aunt Huilian and told her our plan to leave. Aunt Huilian didn't say anything after hearing this. Maybe she had already guessed that we were leaving today.

"Will you come next time?" Aunt Huilian asked.

I thought about it, then smiled and said to her: "Next time I will ask my daughter to come!"

Obviously this answer surprised Aunt Huilian, but she nodded happily after being stunned for two seconds.

In fact, I also thought about asking my father to come with me, but he already has a family and is so far away, so it is naturally inconvenient. If my mother knew that he traveled all the way to visit his old lover... not only him, but also me would die! After all, I was the one who instigated it. But then again, where is my old lover now... I also have a family. If I learn about her, will I travel thousands of miles to see her?

Hey, I don’t want to think so much anymore, let’s go home first!

I say goodbye to Aunt Huilian and also to Xujiacun. When Lulu grows up, let her come here again with my thoughts.

While flying to Baisha Village, I thought to myself again: There seems to be a lot of visiting old lovers for elders, and it has been shown a lot on TV! Like in those martial arts dramas, a certain master brings his apprentice from childhood to adulthood. The first thing he tells the apprentice after he comes out of the mountain is to visit another senior on his behalf, and that senior is his old lover...

In the final analysis, it is not because of love, hate, or fear of being slapped that I can’t go to see someone in person. In fact, I can’t blame anyone for this. After all, there are too many helpless places in relationships, and it hurts a lot of people. Both of us The years of longing between individuals can only be conveyed through their respective apprentices. Who can understand the feeling?

Although according to the plot, it is very likely that the apprentices of the two parties will fall in love with each other and get together, and then the two will travel together in the world, and then misunderstandings will occur for some reasons, and finally they will be divided into different factions. Old age and death do not communicate with each other. Many years later, the two of them also became masters, and their respective apprentices also came out. The two began to rely on their apprentices to convey their longing for each other...

What a tragic cycle! The apprentice became the master, and the master began to teach the disciples. In the end, it was just a word of love, alas...

But I really can’t imagine the scene when I asked Lulu to visit Xiaoya on my behalf many years later. They had met each other a long time ago, and it seemed that they didn’t have any good feelings for each other. After all, in Lulu’s eyes, Xiaoya was a bad person. , because Xiaoya caught her, and in Xiaoya's eyes, Lulu is the child of her love rival...

What a crime! Why are the relationships in my generation so uncomfortable? !

On the other hand, if the child in Xiaoya's belly is born, what should I do when the child grows up and comes to see me? ! Will Xiaoya let that child recognize me? I am the child’s biological father!

The more I thought about it, the more I got a headache, and my head was about to explode. Fortunately, we finally returned to Baisha Village around five o'clock in the afternoon.

This village is still so quiet.

Standing at the entrance of the village, I saw a large group of children playing games, and the people leading them were Hu Shuirong and Ah Li.

Xueying was about to call them, but I stopped her: "Let's walk over slowly and give them a surprise."

But who would have thought that as soon as I finished speaking, a child spotted us, and when he shouted, the whole village started to get lively.

"Brother! Brother is back!!!"

Seeing them yelling and running towards me, I couldn't help but run towards them. To be honest, I have been thinking about Baisha Village these days, especially this group of children. Although I haven't spent much time with them. Not much, but I still like them very much.

Hu Shuirong and Ah Li also ran over. After hugging me, I asked Ah Li: "Have all those little foxes been sent back to the Fox Fairy Cave?"

Ah Li nodded and said, "Yeah! Not a single one is missing, they were all sent back safely!"

"That's great! Where's the other one? Where's your significant other?"

Ah Li looked around, then scratched his head and said, "Seventh sister should go for a walk..."

"Oh, let's have a good sleep tonight and go home early tomorrow!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I immediately realized something was wrong, so I quickly covered my mouth with my hands!

But it turned out to be too late...

"Brother, are you leaving?! Brother, don't leave!!!"

"Brother can't leave! Stay with us!"

"Brother, don't leave..."

As soon as these children heard this, they hugged my arms and refused to let go. Some of them simply climbed on top of me and put their hands around my neck, fearing that I would run away if I didn't hold on tight.

"Hey, hey, hey! I won't go! I won't go! Let go...if you strangle me again, I will die...!!!"

Xueying, Hu Shuirong and Ah Li saw them and comforted them together. It wasn't until their parents came to call them back for dinner that I was able to escape.

Even though their parents were holding their hands, they still shouted: "My brother is leaving, we can't let him go!!!"

The parents had no choice but to help and respond: "Okay, okay! If you don't let brother leave, we will watch him. If he wants to leave, we will catch him!"

"Yes! Catch him!" The children nodded, and then followed their parents home obediently.

Looking at their innocent and innocent looks, I sighed deeply. I feel so pitiful about the hearts of parents in the world and the love of children in the world.

"It's getting late, Ah Li, go and call Hu Qimei back. Let's go to Uncle Zhang's house to have a good meal and have a good sleep. We'll leave early tomorrow! Sneak around while those kids aren't up yet! I don't want to be seen crying then. A sizzling mess."

In the evening, when we were having dinner at Uncle Zhang's house, no one mentioned this matter again, including Uncle Zhang's two sons and daughters, who seemed unusually quiet during the entire meal.

After eating, we quickly washed up and went back to the room to sleep. Ah Li and Hu Qimei shared a room with us. We didn’t go to bed too early that night because we thought we could go home tomorrow, so we were very worried. Excited.

"By the way, what did your grandparents say about me after sending the Hu family army back?" I suddenly remembered, so I asked Ah Li.

Ah Li said: "Master, grandma praised you and said you did a good job. She also said she would give you a gift next time she goes to the Fox Fairy Cave!"

"A gift?! What gift can she give me? Every time I go to the Fox Fairy Cave, she threatens me with a whip. I still remember the feeling of that whip hitting me!"

Ah Li scratched his head: "Grandma didn't say anything, but I guess it's a good thing."

"Put her down! With her temper, even if she beats me up and says it's for my own good, what else can she give me?"

Ah Li was speechless, and then Hu Qimei turned over and said to me: "Don't forget you promised me something."

"Uh, I remember! Have you thought about it?"

"Not yet, just reminding you."

I rolled my eyes and covered my head with the quilt, and then the whole room fell silent.

At dawn the next day, Uncle Zhang and his wife got up to cook. I woke up immediately when I heard the sound. At the same time, I felt something vaguely in my heart, so I told everyone to get up and wash up quickly.

After washing up, Uncle Zhang came to me and said, "I know you plan to leave this morning, so I got up early to cook. I hope you won't find it objectionable because I haven't taken care of it well these days."

"How could it be?! Thanks to your family's care during this period, it should be us who have caused you trouble."

We were chatting while eating. During this period, the rooms of Uncle Zhang's son and daughter were kept closed and the lights were not turned on. The two little guys were probably still sleeping at this time, which was convenient for us to leave.

The sky outside gradually began to light up. After eating, it was Uncle Zhang and his wife who gave us a meal.

We walked and chatted along the way, and when we reached the entrance of the village...

We actually saw a large group of children already standing at the entrance of the village waiting for us! ! !

In the dark row, I saw Uncle Zhang’s son and daughter. It turned out that the two little guys had gotten up early...

It was the village chief and the parents of the children who took the lead. All the villagers in the village came!

"What are you... doing?!" I was stunned and looked at them in shock.

"elder brother!!!"

"Brother, don't leave..."

"Brother, don't leave!!!"

Suddenly all the children started crying, including their parents, who begged us to stay for a few more days.

It was obvious that everyone had discussed it together, and Uncle Zhang had known about this situation for a long time, but he never told me just now.

At this time, the village chief came over and said to me: "Children who are psychic, I know in my heart that you are leaving this morning, so I came to the village entrance to see you off before dawn. Children, please stay a few more days! We can't bear to leave you." Walk!"

After the village chief finished speaking, he started to cry, and I had already burst into tears. In Harbin, six o'clock in the morning is the coldest time of the day. Looking at them, each of them had a thick layer of blood in their mouths even when they breathed. The thick smoke made my tears flow even more violently.

Especially the group of children, although they were thickly dressed under the care of their parents, their little faces were already red from the cold. At this time, they stood there pitifully and cried to me. That kind of scene made me I will never forget it for the rest of my life.

I walked up to them step by step, then opened my hands and hugged them together: "Be obedient, my brother will come to see you again..."

"We don't want you to leave!!!"

The children started to get excited and held on to my sleeves with their little hands. Some of the little boys even bit my clothes with their teeth. I was struck by the way they refused to let go. Just heartbreaking.

This also reminded me instantly of the scene when I was separated from Lulu in the train station when I left Leping. Wasn't she also so reluctant to let us go, and she grabbed Xueying and me by our clothes to prevent us from leaving?

Hu Shuirong, Xueying and Ah Li were also surrounded by them, while Hu Qimei stood alone and watched quietly.

It is said that children are the most spiritual. Their world is different from that of adults like us. The hearts of these elves are so pure, but they are often beyond our expectations. I didn’t like little elves before. Children, but after having Lulu and getting in contact with these children, I gradually discovered that they have become an indispensable and important part of my life.

With responsibility comes understanding. As adults, we must also do our best for the growth of our children. This is human nature.

Although we were reluctant to leave, we finally left.

Their parents spent a lot of effort to pull them away from us. When those little hands broke free of my clothes, that moment was like the end of a century. From then on, there was no sunshine in my world. Same.

It was at that moment that I turned around and cried loudly. We didn't dare to look back and could only leave slowly amid the cries of the children and the farewells of the villagers behind us...

(I swear I will never write about this situation again.

I personally don’t like to say goodbye. A friend once said something to me that I will always remember.

"It would be too much to leave without saying goodbye."

Still, it’s my favorite way to say goodbye.

Because truly leaving is like never appearing. )

The moment I entered Harbin Railway Station, like last time, I looked back one last time at this city that made me feel heartbroken even when I breathed, and sighed sincerely.

"Farewell! My city of memory!"

"Farewell! Harbin, my sad place!!!"

The farewell at this moment is not the goodbye then, but never seeing each other again...
