As one of Jia Mu's most beloved grandchildren, every anniversary of her death, Baoyu would always bring his wife Baochai to the coffin to offer sacrifices early, even if such an early arrival made it belated by him. The elders of the same clan seemed embarrassed and annoyed, but he didn't take it to heart.But no matter how early he came, he would always find a bunch of plain and clean white chrysanthemums decorated with black ribbons in front of Jiamu's spirit, but he had never met the person who put the bunch of flowers there. .

Based on the tacit understanding in each other's hearts, they and the person who left the white chrysanthemum will always be staggered by a quarter of an hour.

However, for this year's sacrifice, out of some tacit premonition, the couple moved their departure time forward by half an hour.In order to show her reverence by making fresh dim sum by herself, Baochai even got up in the middle of the night to make preparations and worked for several hours before getting ready.They got off the aircraft on the tarmac at the foot of the mountain, refused the help of the servants, walked up the mountain with snacks and fruit wine in hand, and finally arrived at the cemetery when the rising sun broke the horizon.

This time, the white chrysanthemums before the coffin became two bunches.And the two who presented the flowers were standing in front of the monument, and they had not had time to leave in the future.The well-tailored black clothes set off their slender figures and fair complexion. Just standing there quietly, it was like a quiet and timeless painting.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Baoyu still fell into a long trance.Seeing that he was not in the right mood, Baochai immediately raised a warm and appropriate smile, and said to the couple not far away: "Hi-er, long time no see." Zhaohui let out the heat that had been suppressed all night. , she squinted her eyes as if she couldn't bear the brilliance, and then continued, "I didn't expect to meet Mr. Yinzhen here, did you come with Yan'er?"

She Sheng nodded slightly, but did not speak.Because of his bullish personality, Daiyu never expected him to be able to socialize with unfamiliar people, so she had no choice but to restrain the emotions that had been agitated just now because of the memory of Jia Mu, and evoked a polite smile: "I think it is necessary for Shesheng to meet his grandmother."

A woman who was originally very defensive wanted another opposite sex to pay homage to the elder who loved her the most during her lifetime. Both parties knew exactly what it meant.Baochai said "ah", looked at Shesheng carefully, and said meaningfully: "It seems that Mr. Yinzhen will see us often in the future."

"Not necessarily." She Sheng said suddenly.Daiyu's surname is Lin, but neither Jia nor Xue. Is she close to them?Besides, since they are neither separated nor their juniors, do they still have the obligation to visit frequently?

Baochai pretended not to understand the sarcasm in his words, and still maintained a beautiful and calm smile.Daiyu sighed and laughed inwardly, so she had to change the topic to the box Baochai had brought up: "Sister Baochai made new dim sum?" Baochai took advantage of the situation and raised the food box: "This time It’s a few dishes. Chicken marrow bamboo shoots, steamed lamb with milk, all the old lady’s favorite food back then.”

She put all her heart into this, so Daiyu couldn't help but be moved: "Sister Bao is bothering you." Baochai smiled and said, "You also know that, as far as I am concerned, cooking is a personal hobby. I can fulfill my filial piety and satisfy my own preferences." , It’s not too much trouble.” She glanced at Xie Sheng as she spoke, and for some reason, Xie Sheng only felt that her eyes were indescribably weird, as if there was something similar to showing off and demonstrating.But without waiting for him to distinguish carefully, Baochai had already looked away, and said with a calm expression: "I remember that you usually like to eat sweet food, but it happened that you collected a few new recipes last month. Kong, let me try something new for you?"

In the past, when Daiyu lived in Jia's house, the juniors of each family often had private gatherings to play.When Daiyu went to Xue's house with several young ladies from Jia's family, she accidentally ran into Baochai hiding in her kitchen, using the ingredients and kitchen utensils inside to secretly bake herself snacks.At that time, she knew that Baochai, the lady of the Xue family who was regarded as noble and noble in the eyes of outsiders, actually had a hobby of cooking, which was incompatible with her external image.

But Baochai who was bumped into the little secret was also relieved to see that Daiyu showed no disdain except for surprise.And after getting acquainted with Daiyu, she would bring a few small snacks baked by herself to share with Daiyu from time to time, which is a secret between the two girls.Even though the two became estranged later because of Baoyu, Baochai still kept the habit of sharing the delicacies she made with Daiyu, although Daiyu would only change her ways to avoid them most of the time, and she couldn't avoid it. , and can only taste bitterness from it.But now her state of mind has changed, and when she heard Baochai's invitation again, a burst of tender nostalgia welled up in her heart.

"Okay, Sister Bao's craftsmanship always surprises people every once in a while. I'm thinking about it." This time, Daiyu said without any grievances.

Baochai smiled with satisfaction, and quickly glanced at Shesheng again.She was baffled by what she saw, and he felt that he was being provoked, but he couldn't tell where the provocation came from.At this time, Baoyu finally got out of his wandering mind, and smiled, "You guys have an appointment now? I was just about to ask, Sister Lin, Mr. Yinzhen, is there any honor to invite you to my family's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in a week's time?" Come and sit down?"

Neither he nor Daiyu's surname was Jia, even though Daiyu lived in Jia's family before she became an adult, she went out independently after she became an adult.Jia's Mid-Autumn Festival reunion banquet, what is the meaning of the two of them in the past?She Sheng was about to refuse, when he heard Baoyu say, "We can also introduce Mr. Yinzhen to your relatives."

She Sheng swallowed the words back, and looked at Daiyu.Daiyu didn't expect Baoyu to make such an invitation, so she couldn't help being surprised, but she was not surprised at all.She understood what Baoyu meant, but she wanted to take the opportunity to tell the entire Jia family that she was completely independent from the Jia family.If possible, you can also take advantage of the momentum of the Yinzhen family to further beat and beat the clansmen who bullied her and embezzled the Lin family's property back then.But she felt that meeting Jia's mother was enough, and she really didn't want to have anything to do with the Jia family, so there was no need for She Sheng to contact the Jia family, so she said: "I am afraid that She Sheng's family also has arrangements..."

No matter what, Baoyu was always willing to think about her, but in the past, he never cared about these minor details.She is not the only one who has changed over the years?Thinking about it, Daiyu felt a little melancholy.Unexpectedly, she only spoke half a sentence, and Xie Sheng cut it off: "My family only celebrates the Mid-Autumn Festival, so time is very free."

Daiyu didn't care about these forms, and in fact he didn't care much either.He just wanted to seize all available opportunities to show off the relationship between the two of them—yes, the motivation of Alien Wolf Smoke is so direct and simple.

Daiyu was choked by him immediately, and after a daze, she couldn't help but give him a blank look.The corners of She Sheng's lips twitched upwards, and he quickly returned to his original indifferent expression. He turned to Baoyu and his wife and said, "I will visit you at that time."

Huai Xun heard the voiceless sound of cranes in the mountains, swaying and swaying under the vast sky, above the sea of ​​clouds, and between the long winds.She opened her eyes and realized that she had fallen asleep while meditating again.She turned around and whispered to Lian Emei who was sitting on the futon on the other side: "Teacher, you didn't wake me up."

"Adequate rest helps to stabilize the soul. It's good if you can fall asleep." Lian Emei's eyes were slightly dark, and his body and mind were still, but there was a clear voice echoing from the quiet room.

"If I go to sleep again, I will almost never wake up." Huai Xun blushed.

Lian Emei said: "But in the eyes of the teacher, you are living in a dream, so how can you be sober?"

"This is called materialization." Huai Xun replied with a sentence from the "Southern China Classic", and said a word with a smile.

Lian Emei did not refute her, but said: "With your aptitude, if you hadn't been immersed in the sea of ​​dust, you should have shed your mortal form and transcended immortality."

Huai Xun adjusted the position of her legs to a kneeling position, raised her head and looked at her eagerly, and said curiously: "With master's level of cultivation, it's time for Xiaju to ascend, so why is she still staying in the mortal world? "

Lian Emei finally opened his eyes and glanced at her. The light in his eyes was as bright as the ancient and colorful nebula deep in the universe.Her tone was warm and peaceful: "Because of you."

The unexpected answer made Huai Xun slightly open his mouth, but he didn't remember to close it for a while.

"If I can't take you out of this catastrophe for a day, I will be unintentionally promoted as a teacher for a day." Lian Emei's face showed a trace of determination.

Huai Xun covered his mouth, his gaze changed several times, and finally settled down to a clear look.She lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "I often have the illusion that some people and things, although it is the first time we meet or happen for the first time, I always feel familiar. Even if it is just a quick glance, it is still touching and joyful for no reason... ..."

Unexpectedly, she thought of that morning when the morning glow filled the sky, the flames flowing from the man's red hair seemed to burn her eyes as if alive, the golden eyes were transparent and indifferent from the world , like the old stars that have been forgotten outside of time and space.

Feng Zen with one sword.She silently recited the name, and unsurprisingly, she felt the tender pain reverberating in the void in the missing corner of her heart.She let out a sigh that only she knew, and blinked: "Teacher, in the infinite world, have you ever known me?"

This time, Lian Emei didn't answer.

"My heart has always been missing a corner. I don't understand why it came into being, and I don't know how to fill it. But I can feel that until it is filled, I will never be able to shed my mortal body like you expect. You must be detached." She said in a hurry, her eyes were light and bright, which made her look suitable for her age, and finally she no longer looked like a child, "I don't know how long you have to wait, I can feel it I can't be sure whether this change is good or bad. It may be an opportunity, or it may be nothing..."

"Do whatever you want, let nature take its course." Lian Emei said in a clear voice, "Perhaps, it's time for you to go down the mountain."

The author has something to say: the worldview of this article is interlinked with "The Flower in the Palm" and "Longevity", so Huai Xun, guess what, in the past countless calamities, have you ever known the person who practiced clouds? ?
