Twilight rain time.
When Old Liu Tou returned to the tavern, he immediately saw the blind girl sitting next to Lu Yu.
Old Liu, holding a worn out flower in his hand, stopped and stood in the rain in front of the door.
"Every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner. A master in the heavenly realm will definitely not embarrass a child no matter what."
"Don't embarrass him." The blind girl nodded lightly.
"Okay, I wonder why you are here?" Lao Wu said lightly. Someone from the Supervisor of Ceremonies comes to the door, as if impermanence is asking for life, it is bound to be either disaster or misfortune.
"A few days ago, did a young man named Pei Liang come to your store?"
"Except for a few regular customers, I never ask anyone's name."
Old Liu smiled bitterly.
"Since I can come to you, I must confirm that you know this person. Old shopkeeper, please don't waste my patience!"
"I don't know if it's true!" Old Liu still shook his head.
"Even if you lose your life, you still have to protect him, right?"
"You can kill him if you want. I really don't know this man, so how can I make such nonsense?"
Xue Wanting stood up slowly, staring at Lao Liutou with his white eyes. He just said "Excuse me", then turned and walked into the rain.
Old Liu was a little surprised, but he still tried to maintain his composure on the surface. As he watched the girl leave, he suddenly realized that not a single drop of the raindrops falling from the sky could fall on this person's clothes.
When Lu Yu found the blind girl, it was getting dark soon. She was taking shelter from the rain alone under a tree in the east of the city. This place was far away from the tavern, making it easier for Lu Yu to search.
"Why are you here?" Xue Wanting turned to look at the young man who was still standing in the rain, his voice was gentle and a little surprised and happy.
"Can you see me?" Lu Yu couldn't help being surprised.
"Don't forget, blind people have very good ears. I remember the characteristics of my brother's breathing and the sound of his footsteps." Xue Wanting pointed at the small ears behind his hair.
"It's amazing!" Lu Yu admired sincerely, walked quickly to the tree, held the paper umbrella in his hand above the two people's heads, and said hesitantly: "I promised you that I will help you find someone after closing time. Just...just ran out."
Xue Wanting smiled slightly and said nothing. Lu Yu stood side by side with her, and the raindrops that penetrated the gaps between the branches and leaves hit the umbrella. The young man only thought the sound was very pleasant.
"Why are you here?" Lu Yu asked
"I'm looking for someone. It's raining too much, so I'll take shelter from the rain for a while."
"Oh, why didn't you take an umbrella before leaving? Hey, why are the clothes on your body dry?" Lu Yu finally realized something was wrong.
"When you fell asleep, I saw the rain stopped and came out."
"Oh, I drank too much too. When I woke up, the shopkeeper was back!"
"You invited a poor girl to eat and drink, and the shopkeeper didn't scold you?"
Lu Yu scratched his head: "Our shopkeeper is not a stingy and mean person. He is very kind to me. He even hugged me to bed when he saw me drunk..."
Seeing Xue Wanting suddenly covering her mouth and laughing, Lu Yu blushed and felt embarrassed. He was carried to the bed. Was he still a child?
Xue Wanting smiled and said: "You drank a lot, and then you became drunk and couldn't wake up. I couldn't pull you away, so I just left alone."
"Did I...did I talk a lot of nonsense at that time?" Lu Yu glanced at the blind girl cautiously.
"Yes, a lot!" Xue Wanting nodded affirmatively.
"Ah, I don't even remember, what did you say?"
"You said that the shopkeeper was mean to you and refused to pay you wages. You also said that when you were a child, you were beaten by her son because you peeped at Widow Li taking a bath in the village..."
"You...did you hear it wrong? This is all wrong."
"It's absolutely true, you also said..."
"Okay, just think I farted, okay, I beg you."
"Haha, I'm just teasing you."
"ah"
"It seems you didn't do anything good when you were a child."
"Huh, who said that?"......
The two young men played around under the tree for a while, and then each quieted down.
"Who are you looking for?" Lu Yu suddenly thought of business.
"a friend"
"What are his characteristics? I'm very familiar with this area."
When Lu Yumanhan looked at Xue Wanting expectantly, the blind girl shook her head: "No need to trouble brother, I can find it."
Lu Yu became anxious as soon as he heard this: "You have poor eyesight, and looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. What is your friend's name? I'll find out for you!"
"I'm blind, but I still have ears. I'm no worse than you normal people when I look for people."
Seeing her like this, Lu Yu felt even more distressed, and whispered: "I just want to help you, because I'm afraid you will be bullied outside alone."
"Brother, don't worry, ordinary people can't bully me."
Lu Yu's nose felt sore and she sighed, thinking to herself, don't be so aggressive. How can you not be bullied with your eyes like this?
"You really don't need my help?" Lu Yu's voice was full of disappointment.
"It's really not necessary." The blind girl's attitude was as firm as ever.
"All right"
Lu Yu nodded, he understood that this little girl had too much self-esteem and was too stubborn.
Xue Wanting was silent for a moment and said unexpectedly: "You want to help me so much, do you like me?"
After saying this, Xue Wanting probably imagined Lu Yu's mouth wide open with a stunned look on his face, and he burst into laughter first.
Sure enough, Lu Yu's face suddenly turned red and he was stunned for a long time:
"I...I didn't. I always regarded you as my sister."
Hearing the boy's hesitant reply, Xue Wanting lowered his head sadly: "Yes, who would like a blind man? He is ugly, wearing tatters, and smells..."
The blind girl's voice became smaller and smaller, but a surge of blood arose in the young man's chest, and he said loudly: "Don't say that, I, Lu Yu, like you. When I wake up and can't see you, I feel like I've lost something in my heart." It’s like I just want to see you. As long as I’m with you, I feel special...special..."
A faint smile appeared on the corner of the blind girl's mouth, "What's so special?"
Lu Yu took a deep breath and summoned up the courage to whisper: "I'm very happy. Just like this, even if I stand for a whole day without saying a word, I feel happy in my heart."
After saying this, Lu Yu's face was as red as an apple. He admired his courage at this moment. Before he had said these words, he would have been unable to say them even to death.
Xue Wanting stopped talking, and Lu Yu waited for a long time before hearing her cough, as if to moisten her throat.
"Is your throat uncomfortable?" Lu Yu started to look for words.
Xue Wanting was silent again.
"Where are you staying tonight?" Lu Yu couldn't help but ask
"What do you want to do?" the blind girl smiled generously.
"Oh, I want to send you back"
There was no light from the stars and the moon, and outside the inn, men and women stopped walking.
"You go back, I can go up by myself."
The blind girl turned around and spoke softly. "
"In the future, if you need anything, you can come to me in the tavern. You can take the five taels of silver here first." Lu Yu said and took out a solid package of broken silver from his arms.
Xue Wanting shook his head and said: "Brother, I accept it with my kindness. If there is any need in the future, I will speak to you."
Lu Yu said oh and wisely took the money back.
The blind girl smiled slightly, knowing that this honest young man had misunderstood that what she just said was because he hurt his self-esteem. However, she did not explain it and just said: "It's getting late, go back quickly." Lu Yudian He nodded and took another look reluctantly.
It wasn't until the boy gradually disappeared into the night that the blind girl threw away the paper umbrella in her hand, rose straight up from the ground, landed on the eaves of the inn, turned around and disappeared.
Under the window, the woman was holding a book of poems, reading it with gusto, and even reciting a few lines casually. The candlelight flickered on the table, and the breeze surged, bringing a bit of early autumn coolness. The woman's clothes are thin and she is half leaning on the table, which makes her figure even more slim.
These poems in the collection of poems are not only beautiful in terms of words, but also the artistic conception is subtle, timeless and beautiful. Every time I read these beautiful lines, Yaoniang's charming peach blossom eyes will glow with a look of intoxication and longing. How many magnificent mountains and rivers in the world, various philosophies in life, joys and sorrows, are all expressed by these talented poets in their pen and ink. between.
When Pei Liang walked in, he seemed to have discovered something terrible.
"A talented woman still has this hobby."
The man came over shamelessly.
"Go away!" Yaoniang said a word without raising her head.
Pei Liang saw that she was holding a copy of "Mengchuan Collection" in her hand, and guessed that Yaoniang was reading poetry, so he sat down beside her.
"Which one is your favorite?"
"I told you so"
Pei Liang coughed and said, "Actually, I am very good at poetry, and my attainments in this area are no worse than swordsmanship."
Yaoniang sneered and did not answer.
"You can test me!" Pei Liang was eager to give it a try.
"Okay, I'll say the first half of the sentence and you answer the second half."
"Feel free to come over"
Yaoniang frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and picked a poem that she thought was not too popular: "Spring waves are green under the sad bridge."
"Simple, I suspect it was Jinghong Zhaoying."
Pei Liang took a sip of tea and blurted out.
"The jade bones have been buried in the spring for a long time," Yaoniang asked another question.
"The ink marks are like dust on the wall." Pei Liang still answered simply.
Yaoniang glanced at Pei Liang somewhat unexpectedly.
"It seems that you like Lu Fangweng's poems very much." Pei Liang smiled. Both poems come from Lu You's Dreaming in Shen Garden.
"It seems I really underestimate you."
“Come again and again”
Yaoniang asked another dozen poems in succession, from Wei and Jin to Tang and Song Dynasties, and all of them were answered by this man smoothly.
Yaoniang finally collected the poems in her hands, dragged her chin with one hand, and said with a smile: "Have you heard of the Preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion?"
Pei Liang nodded.
"Which sentence in Wang Zi'an's preface do you like best?"
"When you are old, you will be strong. It is better to have a white-headed heart. When you are poor, you will become strong. You will not fall into the clouds."
Pei Liang read it impassionedly.
“I like the sentence that it is difficult to cross the mountain. Anyone who has lost his way and meets by chance is a guest in a foreign land!”
Yaoniang said slowly.
"This sentence is good, but people with different moods have different feelings when reading it. Some people feel more lonely and lonely, while some people are more motivated and motivated."
After hearing Pei Liang's opinion, Yaoniang sighed:
"There are so many truths in this world. Sometimes no matter how much you know, you still can't live well!"
