I see the snow

Yin Zhichuan was very happy to listen to every word Xi Huai said to him.

Immediately said: "Okay. Tell me."

However, Xi Huai was silent, looked at the empty courtyard for a while, and suddenly said:

"never mind."

"Ok?"

"Stop talking."

Xi Huai said, "There's nothing to talk about."

"..."

Yin Zhichuan said, "You can just say whatever you want."

Xi Huai shook his head, and said in a flat voice: "It's all unpleasant things, and I feel unhappy when I talk about it."

"Oh……"

Yin Zhichuan could only say: "Alright, let's not talk about it."

"It's just that everyone has a good day in their hearts, but they don't know that the best days are limited."

Xi Huai said: "Often when it's over...there's nothing left." [*Note 1]

Yinzhichuan looked at him silently.

That's it, Xi Huai doesn't know why he always has a depressive temperament from within.I don't know what he has experienced, what he has seen, it seems that he has no interest in the mountains, rivers and mist of the world since then.

It's like a person's heart is dead, then when he looks at flowers, he thinks that the flowers will wither eventually; ruins of ruins.

"When I was a child, I heard a nursery rhyme."

In the long silence, Xi Huai only spoke very softly.

"Xiucai Lang, Xiu Cai Lang. The father and son went to the school by car.

Three years of writing, ten years of work, the carriage returned to Zhuangyuan Lang. "[*note 2]

The man in white slowly recited the nursery rhyme that came from nowhere, and the tune was melodious and low-pitched.

He didn't look at Yinzhichuan, but just looked at the empty and lonely courtyard in front of him.The voice is also low and slow, like a lingering sparrow flying low in the huge and quiet yard, making people feel nostalgic and gentle in their hearts out of thin air.

"That's what my dad sang to me."

Xi Huai smiled lightly, and said under Yin Zhichuan's gaze, "At that time, he always sat aside and read while I was writing. Whenever I was sleepy, he would read to me. Occasionally it was very hot in summer, and he He also drove fans for me....The town our family moved to was very remote and poor, and there were always many mosquitoes and flies. I think, he really hoped that I would become a general and gain fame?"

Even from the day when Xihuai learned to read, Ye Qingming planted a tree at the door, saying, "This tree grows quickly, and when the tree grows, it will be as graceful as a cover; my son will also learn to grow up, A gentleman is like jade." [*Note 3]

But he will never be able to see the day when Xi Huai will come and go, Xi Huai thought, he fell under the loquat tree he planted with his own hands, the soil was wet with blood.

Even Xi Huai did not grow up to be a gentleman as he wished, but became a young lady who depended on her body and appearance.

A mocking smile appeared on the face of the white-robed man.

So he is always unhappy, what he wants, what he cherishes, and what he never forgets are gone, and he has become such an unrecognizable appearance, how can he still be happy?

Ask Ye Zhuyan who said "There are flowers in spring, moon in autumn, cool wind in summer, snow in winter, if you have nothing to worry about, it is a good time in the world", you will become a little girl in the future, so that you can move around under men Cheng Huan makes a living, what will you do, he will probably just look at you blankly——

Because this is beyond the imagination of the young master of the Ye family.

"Didn't you ask me why I'm always unhappy?"

Xi Huai said in a hoarse voice: "Because I'm not in good health. When I'm not in good health, I'll think of many troublesome things, wondering why I'm in such bad health. If I think about it for a long time, it's inevitable that there will be many people who hate me, I hope they will go to hell with me and become like me. As time goes by, I don’t like to laugh.”

Yin Zhichuan was keenly aware of the key word in it, "people who hate", which he had never heard Xi Huai mention before.

However, before he had time to ask a question, Xi Huai stood up abruptly, just as indifferently as he was sitting quietly on the steps looking at the moon just now, and went straight away and said:

"Forget it. We've talked enough today, let's talk about it another day."

"..."

Yinzhichuan was a bit reluctant, and asked, "Then I'll take you back?"

Xi Huai shook his head: "No need."

His room is not far from here, and it takes about a cup of tea to walk there.

Yin Zhichuan watched him turn and leave, the man in white walked under the melting moonlight, and whispered as he walked:

"Scholar, scholar.

Father and son enter the church by car.

Three years of books, ten years of work,

The carriage returns to the champion man.

......"

Yin Zhichuan actually wanted to say, although you feel that your life is not happy and unsatisfactory, you don't know what you mean to me.

If I hadn't met you, I might still be that bohemian Major General of the Duke of Zhen.Dandy romantic, confused and unwilling.Everyone is envious of my illustrious background, but they don't know that this illustrious family background is also like a cage, and I can't leave even an inch.

It's you who let me confess my heart without fear, yeah... I hate them.

If the king's homeland treats you unfairly, then you can hate it too.you have no idea what this means to me...

Yinzhichuan smiled and let out a sigh.

Since he met Xi Huai, he has changed too much...

***

A few days later, Yin Zhichuan was invited to participate in a party of dudes.

It was said that it was related to the drought in Guanshan County, and the person who invited Yinzhichuan specifically asked Yinzhichuan to bring some valuables with him.

Yin Zhichuan thought that maybe this group of idle dudes wanted to do a show, raise some money, etc., and donate it to the victims of the disaster in Guanshan County.

So he asked the housekeeper in the mansion to prepare some gold and silverware at will——

However, it wasn't until he went there that he realized that he really didn't know enough about these young masters, and he was amazed at their IQ.

"Wusheng White Jade Bi!"

"Panxi Beauty Pearl!—"

"This... this is the Six Yao Sword!"

A servant stood at the door, and every time a young master got out of Cui Bao Ni Jing's carriage and came in with rare treasures, the servant would sing aloud the gift list and read what he had brought. Come treasures.

I saw that the things brought by each dude were extremely precious and priceless, and there was a posture of comparison, one was more expensive than the other, becoming more and more valuable.

The people who came earlier, sitting in the open-air banquet, all gasped in a low voice.

"Brother Yin!—"

As soon as Yin Zhichuan stepped into the courtyard, a young man sitting in the middle stood up and called him excitedly.

It was Wang Yin, the host of this banquet.

Wang Yin is Wang Weiliang's youngest son. Because of the battle at Chifengguan, Wang Weiliang lost the city to Liang Cheng. The Wang family was afraid of being punished for a long time, and Wang Yin was also very depressed for a while.

It was the first time in half a year that he held a banquet with his former friends.

"Sit here."

Wang Yin said with a smile, he stood up and made room for Yin Zhichuan.It has been reserved in advance.

A few dudes who usually play well in Yinzhichuan are also there: Zhao Yunsheng, Yin Yehan...

Only Qin Ge was absent, probably because he was worried about Zhaoyue and had no intention of going to the banquet, so he shirked it.

Yin Zhichuan naturally took Xi Huai with him, as soon as he appeared, the dandies beside him all stretched their necks to look:

They had long heard that Young General Yin had received a cold reception from a young man, and these rich men who had never seen Xihuai had become [-]% curious about Xihuai newspaper.

"Who is this……"

Wang Yin asked knowingly, and smiled at Yin Zhichuan with a deep meaning.

Yinzhichuan cleared his throat: "Xihuai."

"Oh--"

Everyone lengthened their voices.

"What is this for?"

After playing around for a while, Yin Zhichuan didn't want them to focus on Xi Huai, so he deliberately changed the subject, "What are you playing today? Raising money for Guanshan County?"

"To raise money?"

Unexpectedly, the dudes were puzzled and said, "How come? Today is the Treasure Exhibition."

"Treasure Exhibition?"

Unexpectedly, it was Yin Zhichuan's turn to be puzzled this time, he asked: "Didn't you say that it was related to the disaster in Guanshan County? And asked to bring some valuable things, not to raise money."

"Who raised money for those untouchables?"

The dandies all laughed: "It's just some ant-like things, so what if tens of thousands of people die?"

"Brother Yin, you won't—"

One of the sons suddenly thought of——

But it was too late at this time, the servant who chanted in front of the door had already read the gift list in Yinzhichuan.

Only to hear a sharp male duck voice recite loudly:

"Zhen Guogong's mansion—Master Silver General, fifty boxes of gold plants—"

The sons and brothers sitting around Yinzhichuan were taken aback when they heard the words, and then they came to their senses, laughing so hard that they all fell down:

"...Fifty boxes of golden plants...Brother Yin! You are really a real person!"

Yin Zhichuan also had no choice but to smile wryly, and said:

"Who knows what tricks you guys are playing, I thought it was raising money, so what would you bring if you don't bring gold plants?"

"An ancient gun, a famous sword, or something like that in Brother Yin's house can overwhelm the treasures I picked up after going bankrupt."

A dandy laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist: "Before I came, I thought it would be too embarrassing, and I didn't dare to sit with you, Brother Yin, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it... Brother Yin, thank you for saving this place for me. How thin it is!!"

The rest of the dandies also responded one after another, feeling relieved, and the smiles on their faces were much more comfortable.

Not as tense as before.

"Then why not let Brother Yin's side... Cough, Mr. Junxiu give us a laugh."

A young man who had never seen Xihuai before kept his eyes on Xihuai's silent face: "The people next to Brother Yin...are so worried about Brother Yin, this smile is worth a thousand dollars." ! It is worth more than all the treasures on the field!"
