Pretend to be nice

"arrive,"

The off-road vehicle turned off and stopped at the entrance of the dilapidated ancient temple. The three children in the back row slept all the way. They opened their eyes in a daze when they heard Xingkong's shouts. They rubbed their eyes and looked out the window. At the gate of the temple, the sleeping bug was lost in an instant, and he jumped out of the car with great energy.

No one can worry... Xing Kong held the key and followed closely behind them.

Li Qinghe led Lin Guan and walked slowly behind.

A few leather monkeys jumped up and down, excited for a long time, and it was as if they didn't know each other after only a few months away. It seemed fresh.

Xingkong didn't feel like them. He didn't come back for several months. He had a lot of things to do. The first big thing was to light three sticks of incense for the Buddha, and then he picked up water and wiped ashes everywhere.

And Li Qinghe's first major task was to take Lin Guan for a walk around.

Although Lin Gu'an has seen the general appearance of the ancient temple in the video, he can't experience it as it is.

"This... this door still needs to be locked?" The wooden door swayed with the wind, stubbornly persisting on the verge of collapsing.

Li Qinghe scratched his head: "What if?"

"The wall hasn't fallen yet? I think it's slanted..."

"Don't think about it, it's already slanted, and it should last for a few more years..." Li Qinghe paused: "When I first came here, I had someone reinforce it."

Lin Gu'an was silent for a while, and then said again: "Where's the Buddha statue?"

Li Qinghe looked up and saw that the gilded Buddha statue in the gloomy hall had been exposed to wind and rain for decades, leaving only copper rust on his body, and he could no longer see the compassionate smile he once had. It was quite scary at first glance.

"Xingkong said that if you have the money to repair the Buddha statue, you might as well buy two bottles of milk for the children."

"Too……"

The two were chatting in low voices when three children rushed in with chickens in their arms.

“The chicken is still there!”

Li Qinghe looked into their arms and said with emotion: "It's still there..."

Then he explained to Lin Gu'an: "This chicken was raised in the temple before. I didn't want to kill it before going down the mountain. I left some rice for it. I thought it would leave after eating the rice. I didn't expect him to stay here. .”

"Sangji and the others relied on the eggs of old hens for nutrition before they went down the mountain."Li Qinghe touched his nose, and continued: "I also ate two when I was recuperating in the temple."

Lin Gu'an nodded, it turned out to be En Rooster.

The old hen in her arms felt very bitter. She thought that she would never see these demon kings who cared about her eggs every day again in this life. Unexpectedly, it was still catching bugs in the vegetable field two days after Xiaoyao. When she looked up, the three demon kings Just rushed over, the poor old hen was chased up and down before she was full, and now she was hugged tightly in her arms, strangled to death.

Xing Kong, who was wiping the table, turned his head and saw it. His eyes lit up instantly, and he said cheerfully, "Are you still there? There should be a lot of eggs laid, and I don't know where to hide them? Let's go find the eggs together later, and we can add more eggs at night." meal."

The three children thought of the egg custard from snacks to adults, and agreed with a slobber.

The joys and sorrows of human beings and animals are different, the old hen rolled her eyes and pouted.

They were cleaning and making the bed and looking for eggs. They were already tired from the travel and the busy day. They had dinner and chatted for a while before going back to their rooms.

Lin Gu'an and Li Qinghe lived opposite them. I don't know if it was because they had been placed in the closet for too long. The rattling rattled non-stop. Under such conditions, it was really hard to have any charming thoughts. Both of them lived very peacefully tonight.

The night was silent, and the stars outside the house lit up and gradually dimmed.

"squeak"

The wooden boards under him made a hard sound.

Li Qinghe slept lightly, woke up when he heard the sound, rubbed his eyes, hugged the person whose back was facing him sideways, and said drowsily, "Can't sleep?"

"Well," the voice of a sleepless night was very sober.

Li Qinghe originally didn't let her come here, the environment in the temple was really terrible, how could Lin Gu'an have suffered such suffering?But she insisted, and Li Qinghe couldn't hold her back, so he had to agree.

Hearing that Lin Guan didn't fall asleep all night, Li Qinghe felt uncomfortable and distressed, hugged her tightly, lowered his head and kissed her hair, and asked softly, "Want to watch the sunrise?"

"Ok?"

"Before I couldn't sleep, I would go to the back mountain to watch the sunrise. It was very beautiful."

"No, you go to sleep."

"I'm full of sleep," Li Qinghe said, then lifted the quilt to get dressed.

—

At five o'clock in the morning, the sky is still dark, the stars have already quietly left the stage, and the dawn has not yet appeared. This is the darkest moment in the world.

Li Qinghe placed the tripod, and stepped forward after clicking to shoot.

With his back to her, Lin Gu'an sat on a boulder with his knees crossed.

As soon as Li Qinghe walked to her side, he asked, "Is it cold?"

Lin Gu'an didn't sleep all night, and shook his head with a pale face.

Li Qinghe frowned, feeling a little more worried, he hugged her across his lap, put on a black coat, and pressed her tightly without leaving a single gap.

"hot,"

How cold can it be in the summer morning, Lin Gu'an struggled a bit, but Li Qinghe ignored it, and purposely wrapped him up even tighter.

"Li Qinghe!" The harsh words were suddenly blocked.

She lowered her head and kissed her soft lips, and the words of warning turned into unbearable hums,

It took a long time before the conversation came.

"I think you're cold, good boy, it's not easy to get sick if you cover it."

"If you make trouble again, I will kiss you."

"I'm greasy...then you are a disobedient child." Li Qinghe hugged her tightly and smiled lightly against his forehead: "Little friend Lin Gu'an, hello."

"Hey," Lin Guan nestled in her arms, rolled his eyes, expressing disdain.

"Okay, baby, the sun will come out after a while..."

"Before? I couldn't sleep before, but I couldn't go down the mountain, so I still came out to run around at night. This is a secret base of a person I found, and Xingkong didn't even know about it."

"I'm sitting here alone, turning around with the prayer wheel, and it's dawn when I turn around."

"Yeah, I was thinking of you while turning around, and I didn't know why I missed you, so I just turned around and you appeared in my mind, maybe the Buddha persuaded that there is a girlfriend waiting for me outside, so I won't let you go." I'll leave home."

The two lowered their voices, chatting about endless topics, until Lin Guan mentioned something, Li Qinghe was silent for a long time before speaking again.

"I didn't want to hide it from you, but I don't know how to talk to you..."

The mountains and the sky in the distance have already drawn a faint milky white narrow band, and the rich black is gradually being thinned out, and the long-awaited sun is ready to play.

Li Qinghe hugged the woman in his arms tightly, his thoughts gradually drifted back to his youth along with the memories.

"At first, I just felt that our family was different from other families. For example, Uncle Mu always had a lot of demands on Muzi. He didn't give Muzi long hair, and he took her to practice every day, hoping that she could inherit the family business in the future. My dad never He didn't ask me to do anything, and of course, he wouldn't hold me on his shoulders, or check my homework, and he wouldn't even care about where I got in the exam..."

Xia Zhicheng, who was in charge of taking care of the family, became an unemployed housewife early on, but her focus was never on Li Qinghe, as if she firmly remembered that Li Qinghe liked to drink soup, but she didn't know that Li Qinghe was not picky about food but only hated it. drink soup.

No matter what Li Qinghe asked for, she would agree to it, such as skateboards, SLRs, and motorcycles. She didn't blame and didn't think there was any problem. As long as she asked, she would buy it for her, like a doting parent.

And when Li Qinghe proposed that she wanted to learn the piano, she did the same thing, finding the best teacher and buying the best piano for her, as if she had forgotten that she was also good at playing the piano, and she still had her own piano at home.

Li Qinghe didn't understand her, and couldn't figure out why.

In the third year of junior high, Li Guangzhe's good brother Qi Changji returned to Nancheng. Like all the cliché stories, he returned after becoming famous and shared his success with his good brother who grew up.

Since then, Qi Changji has become a frequent visitor to the Li family, and Li Qinghe has received many gifts from him, such as limited-edition dresses that cannot be bought in the market, gorgeous jewelry, and expensive pens. She is not very interested in these, all Throw it to the far corner of the room, except for the black SLR.

Li Qinghe has another hobby - photography.

The difference from the past is that this time the teacher was not invited by Xia Zhicheng, but Qi Changji who took the initiative to teach at the door.

He taught her what aperture is, how to control exposure, how to adjust shutter speed, and walked all over the streets and alleys of Nancheng together, just to let her understand how to compose pictures, and ordered a bunch of magazines to cultivate her aesthetics.

It wasn't until I couldn't teach that I hired other teachers, but I still took her on the plane just because Li Qinghe wanted to take pictures of the desert, and gave Li Qinghe an account to let her enjoy herself under his wings, regardless of the important meeting that the secretary said behind him. Show off your talents.

Since then, photography has become Li Qinghe's favorite hobby.

In fact, there is no serious confession and choice in reality. Who would seriously want the choice of an underage child? Many things have already been decided. The time we get along is getting longer and longer, and even the parent meeting is also him...

Those inadvertent or undisguised details accumulated in my mind and gradually formed the answer.

Why did Li Guangzhe and Li Guangzhe have such subtle expressions when Qi Changji was about to come back?

Why did the parents suddenly breathe a sigh of relief when Qi Changji asked her to call her uncle?

Why did Qi Changji give her so many precious things?

Why was Qi Changji so happy when he saw that she liked SLR?

In an empty home, Li Qinghe looked at the "forgotten" childbearing difficulties on the desktop to prove that Li Guangzhe's name was so eye-catching, like a thunderbolt across the sky.

"I never thought that I was not their own." Li Qinghe fell into a long silence, the pain from that day seemed to be still spreading in his body.

Lin Gu'an hugged her back and patted her head to comfort her.

Li Qinghe took a deep breath: "There was nothing to say later, Qi Changji told me everything, my biological mother was named Jiang Yun, a professional photographer, she died of falling off a cliff in the second year after I was born If he can’t accept it, he will give me to his good brother who can’t have children, and go south to do business.”

"You know the rest. I didn't go back to Qi's house. I escaped from school for half a year before I came back. My mother was pregnant and gave birth to their own child." Her tone was flat, as if she had already crossed this hurdle, saying other people's stories.

"During the Chinese New Year, they asked me to go to Qi's house, so I went and told him in front of Qi Changji that my surname is Li and I like girls. I can't give him anything he wants, so let him get along with him earlier. His current wife is having a baby, so don't miss me all day long."

Li Qinghe smiled sarcastically, and his tone suddenly relaxed: "Afterwards, we were caught by Master Lin."

She has been holding each other tightly, as if she has absorbed endless strength from it, and Lin Gu'an also quietly accompanied her.

"It's all over," Li Qinghe said.

She emphasized her tone: "It's dawn."

Before Lin Gu'an could say anything, Li Qinghe bowed his head and kissed him.

In the white sky in the distance, the sun rises from the snow-covered mountains, and sprinkles light golden tulle, which reduces the strong smell a bit.The gradually blue sky is sparse, with only a few thin white clouds scattered in a few places.

The SLR at the back recorded all this without complaint. Li Qinghe hugged the woman in his arms and didn't care to look at other scenery.
