[Gintama] Riding on the back of the Silver Dragon

"Ringling..."

The melodious ringing of the bell echoed on the field path, mixed with the little tune that the woman hummed herself.The doctor rode a women's bicycle carefully through the narrow and rugged field ridges. The cold winter wind blew her face red, and her unruly long hair flew wildly behind her head. A white coat that has been washed a little bit old is extremely contrasting.The new year is coming, the cold weather has frozen the ruts on the road very hard, together with dry straw and small stones, from a distance, the figure of her riding a bicycle has been bumping up and down, which is quite funny Feel.Occasionally, a farmer in the field would greet her loudly when they saw her.

"Doctor Hasumi, good afternoon! You are still busy today!"

"Yeah, good afternoon! You've worked hard too!" Although she couldn't spare her hand, and she couldn't turn her head to look at others talking while riding a bicycle, but she always responded enthusiastically to the enthusiasm of the villagers.

Speaking of which, what supported her, a girl who grew up in the city but suddenly came to the countryside to live alone, is absolutely indispensable for the enthusiastic care of every villager in this Matsumoto village.She sees a doctor for them. Although the medical expenses are lower than those in the city, she can always get all kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables sent by the villagers during Chinese New Year or harvest season. I also often feel embarrassed—after all, these vegetables and fruits are quite expensive in the supermarkets in the city, but when she asked for money, all the villagers said at the same time that this was a gift to thank her for treating them. She pays a penny.With her clumsy tongue, she couldn't resist everyone's simplicity and enthusiasm, so she had no choice but to accept it with extreme embarrassment.

Speaking of which, the mother-in-law next door gave her a few home-grown radishes this morning, so she can save them to make hot pot with beef and tofu in the evening.Normally, she would never be willing to eat up radish and other food reserves that could be saved and eaten raw on the way to the doctor, but today is New Year's Eve, so she has the right to be willful.

Soba noodles, hot pot, pulling out the kotatsu, sitting inside and eating while watching the red and white song concert-this year, there is also her favorite B6 combination, um, it is perfect.She emphasized it over and over again in her heart.

"Even if I am alone, I can live a good life!" At that time, she seemed to be angry with her promise, but now she has carried it out to the end, although even today, when she is alone, she still recalls the past when she was alone in the city. She lived a convenient life here, but compared to the most difficult and bitter days when she first arrived in Matsumoto Village, she is much happier now.

It will probably be home in a few minutes—she was thinking so while humming a song, probably because she just thought of the happy topic of "how to spend New Year's Eve", her thoughts quickly began to fly, from "tonight's Add an extra prawn to the soba noodles" until "What time do you want to go to the shrine to pray for blessings? Do you want to go back quickly? What if someone comes to see her with a bad stomach after eating at night when I leave the clinic?" In terms of miscellaneous things, she was so immersed in her own little world that she didn't notice at all that her car had already reached a dangerous place.

"Wow!"

I don't know when there was a large sunken pothole on the road. When her car bumped through this pothole, she couldn't control her balance in an instant, deviated from the original direction, rushed down the field ridge with her and the car, and fell heavily. At the edge of the field.

"It hurts..." The wheels were still spinning, but she had a solid fall, not to mention that she was also a buffer for the car: the car was completely pressed against her Her body, plus the pain, made her almost unable to move, and she didn't know where her glasses flew to after she just fell, let alone whether they were broken. Now her eyes are nothing but a piece of gold star and a vast expanse of whiteness. , I can't see anything clearly.

Fortunately, she didn't have her head on the ground, otherwise the ground was so hard and hit her head must have suffered - the doctor who was enjoying himself almost cried when he thought of this, saying that she actually gave back This bicycle has been made into a mat, obviously the machine is meant to serve a human being like her...

She fumbled around with her hands, trying to find a place to sit up, but she didn't know whether it was too cold or too painful from the fall. She couldn't get rid of the car on her body for a while, just as she was thinking about it in despair. When the sun went down, a surprised voice came from not far away:

"Doctor Hasumi! Are you okay?"

Although she was very short-sighted, she couldn't see clearly, but she knew who it was by hearing the voice.A purple figure jumped down very quickly and moved the car that was pressing on her away for her. Afterwards, the young man with long flaxen hair grabbed her hand and pulled her up.

"Thank you...Mr. Matsuyo, and Takasugi-kun." It took a while for her to stand up again, and it took her a while to overcome the discomfort of being dizzy and unsteady on her feet (Mr. Looking at her), thanked the two very solemnly, the silver-haired boy picked up the medicine box that fell aside for her, hesitated for a while, and put it in the cart basket, this time she did not call the wrong boy again Name: "Thank you for helping me pick things up, Yinshi-kun."

"Doctor Lianjian, is this yours?" The most attentive Gui looked around, and finally saw a small silver object not far from her by the reflection of the setting sun. She was very pleasantly surprised to find that it was hers. The glasses, except that they were slightly dirty, had no cracks on the mirror surface and no broken temples. She immediately thanked her and took the glasses and put them on, only then could she see her surroundings clearly.

Songyang was still supporting her, looked at her with worried eyes, asked her repeatedly if she was injured, Gaoshan was holding the handle of her bicycle - the bike that caused her a big fall was intact - look She also looked worried, but Yinshi and Gui were not as nervous as these two. Yinshi even approached her car curiously, touching here and there.She said to Songyang that there should be nothing serious, but just as she was about to take a step, she found that her feet were not right, and her body fell down again as if she had stepped on the ground. Didn't let her fall twice.

"It should be just a sprained foot, and it will be fine in a while. It's not a big problem. Thank you for your concern." She noticed that Gui and Yinshi were both carrying bags, which seemed to be New Year's goods, and she guessed that they were teachers. The students probably came back after shopping from the town.Since it was New Year's Eve today, they should be rushing back to the village school to prepare, and she would feel a little embarrassed if she had to spend too much energy on her.However, Song Yang acted as if he didn't hear her excuses, the young man let go of her, walked up to her and squatted down.

"I'll carry you back."

Not only her, but even the few students present were shocked by this unexpected development.She could hear her voice stammering: "This...how can I be so kind...please Mr. Songyang...no need, I...I can go back alone..."

"No, since you sprained your foot, how can I trust you to go back alone? Come up." Songyang was completely unmoved, and emphasized it again. This time, his students all reacted quickly.Gao Shan and Gui have already worked together to help the bicycle to the road, and it seems that they are going to help her push the car home, but Yinshi said to her with a smile: "Since our teachers are all kind, you can do it, doctor." Don't refuse! If you refuse again, the teacher will be hurt~"

Injured by...Who is injured?pride?But let him carry her home... Thinking about it makes her face burn.She was still hesitating, but the boy Gaoshan on the ridge over there had already shouted at them:

"Teacher, are you still okay here?"

She glanced at Songyang again. The young man was still in a half-squatting position, signaling her to get on the ground quickly. The woman gritted her teeth, and finally put her arms around his neck, and put her face against him In the long hair of youth.

The very faint fragrance always reminds her of the sun-baked and golden smell of wheat ears, but this smell inexplicably makes her feel both pleasant and at ease. "I'm a bit heavy...You, you can do what you can." She whispered in his ear, the young man just smiled, a pair of strong hands firmly supported her legs, and stood up effortlessly Standing up, she stepped onto the field ridge in a few steps, but she didn't feel bumpy or unstable on his back at all.

"Yoxi~ let's go, and send Dr. Hasumi home!" Songyang gave orders in a good mood, but Gintoki over there seemed even more impatient, and leaned over to her side and asked, "Hey, doctor, look For the sake of helping you just now, can I ride your car? I promise to ride home for you!" Before she made a statement, Takasugi over there immediately objected like a conditioned reflex: "No! Yin Shi Is this your first time riding a bike? Are you not afraid of falling like a doctor too?"

"Yinshi, safety comes first. I can only carry one person." Songyang followed with a smile.

"I'm not afraid! Standing up wherever you fall is the romance of a man!"

"Uh, even if you are not afraid of falling, Yinshi-kun, I am afraid of my bike... I only have this bicycle, and it will be very inconvenient to go out if it breaks." She objected weakly. Hearing her say that, Yinshi The boy turned his face away with a regretful face, but his depression came and went quickly. After a while, he started to play with the bicycle bell quietly with Gui. Yang Du just smiled knowingly.

The setting sun elongated their shadows, and the crisp bells of bicycles mixed with the sound of children's jokes echoed for a long time in the silent countryside.She quietly lay on his back, put her face on his shoulder, and hugged him even more tightly with both hands.The woman closed her eyes, but the tip of her nose could vaguely feel the brush of the man's hair. Before she knew it, the corner of her mouth curved into a small arc.

Why can this person who looks so thin give her such a huge sense of security?It seems that as long as she is carried on his back, as long as she can be by his side, she is willing to walk with him to the end of time.

The author has something to say: liking is presumptuous, but loving is restraint.
