It feels like I haven't been to the town for a long time.I rode my car along the official road to the east with Ya'er, passing by the section near Xiangyang River to the west, which was the road I walked with Chenchen and Shiyang years ago.Now the twilight has not been completely dispelled by Chuxi's sun, and the occasional mist seems to cover many unseen past karma.I said that when I went to Beijing last time, the official road was being repaired and it was blocked, so I took the road over there.Ya'er said that this official road was repaired in summer.She asked me if you haven't been back for a long time.I hummed.She asked me if you don't want to be home.I said it was fine.The phone rang, and I said you take it out and pick it up for me.She looked at her phone and said it was Chenchen.Then after the connection, she brought it to my ear, and I fed it.No one spoke.I just waited, I was about to call Shiyang's name, and I hung up there.I told Ya'er it's ok.At this time the phone rang again, Ya'er said I'll hold it for you and you said, I didn't say anything, it was Chenchen over there, asking me what I was doing.I said outside, how about you?He said he was off today.I wanted to ask him where Shiyang was, because I thought it was Shiyang who called just now, so I didn't speak.Did I say I didn't go out to play?He said he just woke up.I said nothing else, I hung up.He said Mom said you went on a blind date.I said yes, what do you think.He said no.He was the one who called just now.He said Shi Yang was asleep.I said can I have him say a few words to me.He said he was asleep.I said you were talking nonsense, it was Shiyang who was calling me just now.He said, let's all start a new life.I said yes, didn't we all talk about it?He said that I hung up.I said whatever.The girl asked me in the back if the fight was over.I nodded and she put the phone in my pocket.When I look back, I have passed Xiangyang River for a long time.There is already a bustling market ahead, and it is impossible to pass through.Ya'er said let's store the car.I say yes.

Walking, there is no change from here when I was a child, she asked me if I want to eat Yuanxiao.I said do you eat.She said we were going to buy candied haws.I laughed.She gave me candied haws and asked me why I was laughing.I said I thought only people my age would eat that.She said it was delicious, but my mother wouldn't let me eat it.I asked why.She said it was only eaten by children, I said who said it, I also eat this in Beijing, but it is very expensive, and many people eat it there, not all children.She asked me were you angry with your brother just now?I said no.She asked me in a low voice who Shiyang was.I said it was a friend in Beijing.We walked northwest all the way through the market and gradually went to the outside of the town, where mules and horses were sold.I said it was much quieter here than there.She asked me why you came back.I said I was tired outside and wanted to come back.She said that she always felt that you still had to go out.I asked her if I went out would you go out with me.She nodded with a smile.I said it was very bitter outside.She said she was not afraid.I said it's better to live at home.I said do you like going to the market?She said she doesn't like crowded places.I asked her if you are still here today.She said that she just asked you to come out for a stroll, and there was no good reason.I nodded and she said that the matchmaker came to her house this morning.I looked at her and said I thought of it.She asked me are you ready to get married.I said it was a matter of time, but I still don't know what to do now, and my heart is very confused, thinking that I will not be alone soon, and I don't know what the future will be like.She said that no one knows what will happen in the future.I said I wanted to go out for a few days.She asked me where I was going, Beijing.I said no, I asked her what you want, and I will buy it for you at the market.She doesn't want anything, I'll take your measurements and make you a dress when I get back later.I said I had clothes to wear and kept the fabric for others to make.We walked from the west to the south along the outskirts of the town, and then went east along the Xiangyang Canal to the place where the car was stored. I drove her all the way to the peach blossom forest I saw yesterday.On the other side in the direction of the town, at some point, a cloud of dust or mist that could not be dissipated was flying up and down.If the sun shines for a long time at noon, it would actually be nice to sleep here.She said that I came here with my father when I was very young, and I remembered that there were still a few houses near the main road with people living in them, but now those houses have been demolished.At that time, I felt that this place was really like a paradise, quiet and lovely.I said that I also remember the house you mentioned. It seems to be a collective house in the village. I don’t know if it was used for water conservancy or what.I still feel that it is enough to build a house and live here, and I can still clearly remember the feeling of envying those who lived here.She said it was just that the newly built road was abominable, and now that there were more vehicles coming and going, anxiety began to arise there.

She asked me how long I was going to go, and I said about ten days or so.She said that you go, we will talk about our affairs when we come back.I said that if we are still willing to each other by then, I will go back and talk to my parents, and ask a matchmaker to come to your house to propose marriage and get engaged.She smiled and asked me if you don't want to now.I said no, I just wanted to be quiet for a while.I asked her are you hungry.She said she was not hungry.I said that today was very strange, and I didn't meet any old people in the town.She said that there are basically not many people as old as you and me going to the market, or working outside.I said I'll see you off, and I'll drop you off at your door.She looked at me and said nothing.She went in at the door of her house, and I looked in along the door to see that it was very clean and tidy.Just like this guy.When I was about to leave, she came out and asked me to go to her tailor shop, which was in the south house of their house facing the street.After I went in she took the measuring tape and measured me.Say you slow down when you go back.I say thank you.She asked me what do you want to thank me for.

On the way back, I also smiled slightly, like someone else.I feel that the me today or part of the day is not the real me, and I can't figure out whether marriage is the ultimate destiny or the only green channel for all such people to live.I don't know how much power is about to explode under the seemingly peaceful water they look at me now.Unable to calm down for a long time.A happy life or just looking happy.I need to find an exit, far away, and go through the air.I strongly want to sing a song that I almost forgot.In short, I am very contradictory, I just can't say it, but no one can understand it.

…only, no one listens anymore…
