Chapter 11 The Little Leopard in the Mountains

Yu Yuanyuan lived with her grandma in the countryside when she was a child, and was often bullied by other children for her small stature. Ye Jian took on the role of a flower protector, leading her to run all over the mountains and plains to catch crickets and pick out bird eggs.Every time Yu Yuanyuan went home, her little skirt was black and full of mud. Her grandma picked up a stick to beat her, but Ye Jian snatched the stick and ran so fast with her bare feet that her grandma was kicked out angrily. He chased him halfway through the village, making Yu Yuanyuan giggle.

In fact, she knew that grandma loved her very much and would not be willing to beat her, but Ye Jian also loved her very much and was always afraid that she would be wronged.At that time, the whole mountain forest was their playground. At sunset, grandma would call them to eat at the entrance of the village. Although she would scold them a few times every time, she would always prepare an extra meal, which was for Ye Jian. .

At that time, Yu Yuanyuan didn't understand why her parents lived in the city and would often send her delicious food, while Ye Jian's parents were a bumpkin in the mountains and had never visited him.

Grandma always scolds Ye Jian for jumping up and down like a monkey all day long, but if there is something delicious and fun at home, she will always leave a portion for him.Yu Yuanyuan asked grandma whether she hated Ye Jian or liked him, and grandma said angrily that there was something to like about this monkey, seeing how he brought you, he became half a wild monkey too!

Although grandma didn't admit it, Yu Yuanyuan still felt that grandma cared about Ye Jian very much.It snowed in the village that year, and the whole mountain turned silvery white. Ye Jian didn't show up for two days, and grandma was restless for two days, wrapping up a cotton jacket and going to visit his house.The snow was so deep that it didn't even reach her ankles. Yu Yuanyuan walked behind her grandma, her hands were cold and her hat was covered with ice scum.Grandma was old and couldn't walk steadily, so she slipped suddenly. Yu Yuanyuan couldn't help her up even though her face was flushed, and she burst into tears.

I don't know how Ye Jian heard her voice. He half rolled and half crawled towards her from a distance, and rolled into a snowman. Grandma asked him to find someone to help, but the houses in the village were sparsely built. It takes an hour to go back and forth.Ye Jian wiped off the snow on his face, grabbed grandma's arm and carried it on his back.

Yu Yuanyuan remembers that Ye Jian was 13 years old that year and was already taller than grandma. He pulled in front, and she pushed behind, finally getting grandma to stand up.They supported each other on their backs, and met a neighbor passing by on a three-wheeler on the way, and then sent grandma to the infirmary in the village.

From then on, Ye Jian would still take her up the mountain to dig wild vegetables to find honey, but grandma no longer scolded him often. Once, grandma sat under the lamp and sucked the soles of her shoes, and she somehow talked about that day. She said wild The monkey has grown up and is about to become a little leopard.

The little leopard grew taller, and Yu Yuanyuan could only reach his shoulders. In the summer of that year, her parents came to take her and grandma back to live in the city. Yu Yuanyuan was very happy. She dreamed of being accompanied by her parents every day. by your side.When she was sitting in the car on the day she went out, she suddenly remembered that there would be no more Brother Ye Jian in the city, and no one would take her to run all over the mountains and plains. She slammed on the car door and cried very hard, but until When the car drove out of the village, she didn't even see Ye Jian.

During the time when she first arrived in the city, she kept thinking whether Ye Jian would be angry with her, because she didn't even say a word of farewell.After holding back for a long time, she finally asked her grandma about it. Grandma said that Ye Jian knew she was leaving a long time ago, and the reason why she didn't mention it was because she didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable.Maybe children are forgetful, she quickly integrated into the new environment, made new friends, and the little skirt will no longer be dirty, but sometimes she also wonders what brother Ye Jian is doing , do you still live in the village, do you remember her

There was no shadow of her childhood left in her life, the city's lights and feasting replaced the wild flowers all over the mountains, she thought they would never have a chance to meet again, until one day, she met a boy handing out leaflets on the street.

The boy was tall, with dark skin, a round cut head, eyes shining in the sun, and he kept stuffing leaflets into the hands of passers-by. Yu Yuanyuan saw his smile, and seemed to see honey and wild fruits. Nothing has changed, it is still the same as before, with endless vitality.

He also regarded her as a passer-by, and stuffed a leaflet in the past. Yu Yuanyuan saw the words "omnipotent detective agency" printed on it, and remembered that Ye Jian once told her that he would become an omnipotent detective in the future. The great detective who caught all the prisoners and put them in prison.

She stood there without moving, until Ye Jian felt strange and raised her head. In the eyes of surprise and surprise, they reunited in the sunny afternoon in Yicheng.

"Why haven't you changed at all, you're still so short?" There seemed to be no ten-year distance between them, even Ye Jian's movements of touching her head were exactly the same as before.

Now, Ye Jian has lived in this city for three years, and the Omnipotent Detective Agency is still stubbornly operating in that old building. She has also changed from a college student to a company employee. The only thing that has not changed is that Ye Jian has always been Just like when he was a child, he protected her everywhere, as if in his memory, she was always the little girl who ran behind him in a small skirt.

"What are you laughing at alone?" In the car, Ye Jian turned to look at her.

"No, I just remembered some things in the village." Yu Yuanyuan was hospitalized this time because of gastroenteritis. Leaf care.

"By the way, when will your fiancé return to China?" Ye Jian asked.

"Next month at the earliest." Yu Yuanyuan glanced down at the ring on her hand. In the first month, she and her boyfriend Chen Zhe met each other's parents and held a small engagement banquet, which was a final event for life. , the wedding date is set in October in the second half of the year.

"I said you got married just after graduation, isn't it a bit of a disadvantage?" Ye Jian met Chen Zhe once, wearing glasses, he looked very refined, and his temper seemed to be good.

"There is a rule in their family that a man must get married before the age of 30, otherwise it will bring misfortune to the family." Yu Yuanyuan had a sweet smile on her face. She met Chen Zhe during her summer internship. She had almost no resistance, and soon fell under the offensive of flowers and gifts from the opponent.

"Since the time has passed, there are still such superstitious sayings." Ye Jian smiled innocently.

"This kind of thing is better to be believed than not to be believed." Yu Yuanyuan said, "Azhe will be 30 years old next year. A while ago, there was a sudden murder case in the studio opened by his brother. I don't know if it has something to do with it. .”

"Which studio?" Ye Jian couldn't help but startled.

"It's in the Parkson Building, called Feidu Photography Studio. I heard that a model jumped from their building. It's scary." Yu Yuanyuan shook his head and said.

"The world is really small!" Ye Jian exclaimed.

"What do you mean?" Yu Yuanyuan blinked, but didn't understand.

"It means we should find time to visit grandma." Ye Jian said righteously.
