Chapter 31 Section VIII
Shengzhisuke was standing in the courtyard of Furuhashi's house.
The figure of his father appeared in front of his eyes.He was maintaining the little field, with a handkerchief round his neck and the hem of his clothes pulled up and tucked into his belt.Furuhashi Sowaemon didn't notice Shengnosuke behind him.He was busy pulling out weeds, digging the soil with a shovel and paving it.He wants to plant new seedlings in this corner.
Sheng Zhisuke watched silently from behind, and his father's back gradually faded away.When he suddenly came back to his senses, in front of him was no longer the courtyard of the mansion where Xiao Nahu lived in the Daogen Fan, but a vast and boundless farmland.My father buried himself in his work and was wiping the sweat from his brow with a towel.He stood up and straightened his back, looking up at the sky.The sky was so blue—and Dad seemed to be enjoying it.
I also came to help——just as Shengzhisuke was about to call out, he suddenly felt someone hit his chest.The farmland in front of him and the left and right gates of Furuhashi Sect disappeared immediately.
"Blood clot stuck in throat. Make him spit it out! Quick!"
A hoarse voice came.There was another blow to Shengzhisuke's chest, and his whole body shook.
"Mr. Sheng, Mr. Sheng, can you hear me? Hold on!"
Isn't this Mr. Wubu?What are you shouting for?Shout it so loud, the students will freak out.
"Mr. Sheng, Mr. Sheng."
Hey, it's Ah Jin.It was that cry again.I know Ah Jin is a crybaby.What happened this time?
Vision suddenly became dim.Sheng Zhisuke fell into a deep sleep, as if being rushed to a deep and cold distance.
Someone took Shengnosuke's hand.
It is a pair of small and soft hands.It feels so warm.Those hands tightly wrapped Shengzhisuke's hand.
"Mr. Guqiao." A sweet female voice came from beside him.The other party leaned closer to his face and exhaled slightly. "Mr. Guqiao, can you hear me?"
Another woman's voice came from the side. "His eyelids are moving. Miss, try calling out a few more times to see."
Mr. Furuhashi—the sweet voice called out again, even closer than before.
"Can you hear my voice? I'm Hexiang."
Is Miss Hexiang holding my hand?
"Cheer up. If you don't cheer up, I will never forgive you."
He Xiang is angry.Did I say something that shouldn't have made her pouted in anger?
Kazuka held Shengnosuke's hand tightly, and the ten fingers increased the strength.
"Mr. Guqiao, you can't go to your father, it's not the time yet."
Where is my father?My father is in the field.No, he doesn't know where he is now.It was pitch black all around me, only Miss Hexiang's voice could be heard.Miss Hexiang is herself, where are you?
"I'm Hexiang, come back to me quickly. I'm holding your hand now. Please don't leave me alone."
But now it's pitch black, and I can't help it.I don't know where to go to meet you.
The warm raindrops began to fall on Shengzhisuke's face.Is it raining suddenly?The field where Dad just planted new seedlings should be nourished now.It's so dark now, with clouds hanging over the sky.
At this time, a beam of light suddenly shot in.Ah, the clouds parted.
"Oh, he opened his eyes."
Human faces can be seen in the haze.A group of people looked down at Shengzhisuke beside him.
The closest to him is Hexiang's face.Her cheeks were wet.It turned out that it wasn't rain just now, but Miss Hexiang's tears.
Eyelids are so heavy.He clearly wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids were as heavy as a bucket of wine barrels.
But I have to open my eyes.He Xiang was crying.She may have quarreled with the madam again.I have to comfort her.Because she would involuntarily say something against her will, which not only hurt her mother's heart, but also hurt herself even more.
Shengzhisuke saw Waka, Takebe-sensei, and Tsuta from Wada.Murata Yajihei's face with a pair of charcoal eyebrows emerged from the side at this time.There was an unfamiliar face at the scene.No, wait, isn't he the doctor that Fu Kan hired to heal Sanyi Hyogo a few days ago?It is said that he is also the companion of the fallen head.
"It seems that the dangerous period has passed." The doctor said. "You can't relax now. Everyone, please take care of him with your heart."
take care of?How am I?What's wrong with me?
After opening the sliding door of the closet, all the sundries stuffed inside suddenly poured out - Shengzhisuke felt like this, although the memory was vivid, but there were only fragments, incoherent, scattered into Shengzhisuke's arms.
In the next second, he suddenly realized.
Ah, I was hacked by the big brother.
"He seems to have something to say." Jihei said softly, and then Jinta stretched out his hand from the side, and pushed something to Shengzhisuke's mouth.It was something soft, like cotton soaked with water.The moisture is like rain after a long drought to dry lips.
"You can't force him to speak." The doctor stopped him from the side.But Shengzhisuke still wanted to speak out.His body seemed to be hollow, and he couldn't use his strength.The sound was as feeble as a slight breeze blowing from the hole, barely audible.
"I, brother, he..."
The faces of the people around Shengzhisuke became blurred.
"My elder brother..."
Kazuya's palm gently covered Shengnosuke's cheek.
"Brother Ling's whereabouts are unknown. I don't know where he went. But Mr. Guqiao, you are here. I will accompany you."
It's all right now - after talking with Xiang, he started to sob and cry.While crying, she caressed Sheng Zhisuke's cheek and forehead, and wiped the corners of his eyes for some reason.
"Why are you crying?"
Hearing Shinosuke's weak questioning voice, Kazuka cried and forced a smile.
"Because you're crying. Mr. Furuhashi is such a crybaby."
Oh...it turns out that I am also a crybaby, that's why my eldest brother and mother are alienated from me.
He Xiang reached out to wipe his tears for him.It feels so comfortable.Sheng Zhisuke closed his eyes again.As soon as he closed his eyes, his father Munezaemon appeared in front of him, concentrating on maintaining the farmland.
The town doctor named Xuanan said.
"When I arrived, you were 90% dead. After I rescued you, 80% died. Later, you were called back to the world under the care of everyone, and only 50% died. But if you relax a little, you will soon die. Please take care of yourself and take good care of yourself."
Shengzhisuke was lying in the room of Wadaya with only 50% of his life left, listening to the doctor's orders.
"I often help people diagnose and treat stab wounds. You are really lucky to survive such severe injuries. Fortunately, the people in the longhouse rushed to rescue you at that time."
It was indeed Taichi who yelled loudly about the fire.
"Witnessing such a tragic event, he neither frightened nor flinched, and used his wit to resolve the crisis. It's not easy."
A few days later, Shinosuke was able to meet Taichi after recovering 90% of his anger.At this time, he couldn't eat normally, he could only drink boiled water, and he could barely move his arm with his own strength.The knife wound from his left shoulder to his chest was tightly wrapped with a white cloth.Seeing his appearance, Taichi crawled to Shengzhisuke's pillow as if his legs were weak.
"Mr. Sheng, are you okay?"
"Well, thanks to you, I was able to save my life."
"But your life doesn't seem to be fully saved yet."
Shengzhisuke showed a wry smile, and Taichi followed suit.
"You bled a lot when everyone was transporting you with the door panels. I was terrified."
After transporting it, the blood stains on the door panel seeped into the wood, making it unusable, so Yin Zang used a hatchet to chop firewood into firewood.
"I'm causing you trouble."
"You don't have to worry about the door panels."
Shinosuke wanted to know what happened to the residents of the Fukan longhouse, so Taichi told him.
"My sister was obviously worried about you, but she said she didn't want to come to Wada House. So I came here by myself."
Sheng Zhisuke nodded slightly while lying on the pillow.Taichi seemed relieved.
After a while, he whispered about the situation at that time. "At that time, I will go to take a pee."
He was talking about the night when Shengnosuke left the bathhouse and was going back to the longhouse.
"When I was about to return to the house from the hut, I smelled a bloody smell. It was the same as the stench I smelled when taking care of the samurai who fell by the roadside. I smelled the smell carefully at the time and knew that it was different from the smell of fish. You'll know it when you hear it."
Taichi felt strange, cautiously lurked in the darkness, and went to check the situation around the wooden door of the longhouse.At this time, by the light from the red lanterns of the Inari Shrine, he saw Shengzhisuke walking back to the longhouse at night with a towel on his shoulder.Just as Taichi was about to speak out, another figure suddenly appeared from the dark place behind Shengzhisuke.
"I'm sorry, I wish I had yelled right away. But the other party didn't know what to say to you. When I saw that the situation was wrong and I was shocked, that person had already drawn his knife."
Despite this, Sheng Zhisuke still saved his life.Because of Taichi's yell, Katsunosuke flinched, and fled without making up the fatal blow.But according to the sequence of events, the bloody smell Taiyi smelled at night was by no means the result of Shengnosuke being hacked.
It is Jihei who visits shortly afterwards who solves the bizarre riddle.At this time, Sheng Zhijie's complexion recovered a lot, and he could get up from the bed to drink rice soup.
"I didn't expect someone like me to be responsible for conveying this important message... I really can't bear the burden." Jihei said, Master Higashitani entrusted him with a message. "The residence of the Edo clan of the Takune clan is currently very busy. I reported the matter to Master Higashiya in detail, but it seems that Master Higashiya finds it difficult to find time to visit you."
No wonder.In order to send people back from Edo to the domain and arrest those involved in the conspiracy, Shigehide Sakazaki was very busy.The lord was in Edo because of his participation in the confession. In theory, he would wait until he returned to the vassal to formally deal with the matter, but Donggu may be the first to rush back to the vassal state.
"The next thing we want to talk about...is about brother Ling."
Katsunosuke's whereabouts are still unknown.
"I heard that Master Donggu originally planned to send brother to the Eighth Prince after meeting with you. Let him stay for a while to avoid the limelight, and then arrange for him to escape to the Kyoto area."
In other words, Katsunosuke was escorted by someone, and was guarded by two of Sakazaki Shigehide's subordinates.
"Since Master Donggu's two subordinates can gain trust, they are naturally very skilled. But I heard that brother Sheng has extraordinary swordsmanship."
Even Donggu misjudged this point.Katsunosuke didn't want to be at the mercy of him at all.He was unwilling, so on the way to Hachioji, he saw an opportunity to take advantage of, beheaded two of Donggu's guards, and ran back to Edo.His purpose is only to kill Sheng Zhisuke.If possible, he might plan to kill Sakazaki Shigehide together.
"However, the two guards were skilled in martial arts after all, and Brother Ling was also injured. The bloody smell Tai Yi smelled at that time was the stench that Brother Ling wafted from when Brother Sheng was lurking in the dark waiting for Brother Sheng."
In the end, that stench saved Shengzhisuke's life at a critical moment.
Jihei asked with some hesitation. "Didn't Taiyi tell you?"
"tell me what?"
"Brother Ling should have been able to take your life on the spot."
But he didn't give you the final blow.
"Tai Yi said that brother Ling suddenly showed hesitation at that time, and it wasn't because he yelled loudly. Tai Yi yelled loudly because brother Ling stopped the long knife in his hand when he looked down at you who fell on the ground."
Shengzhisuke remembered that when he was lying down in the dark, he could feel Katsunosuke stepping on the ground and approaching step by step.
"I think your brother regained his true heart at that time. There was a brotherly family feeling in his heart." Jihei sniffed at this point. "But Mr. Fukan doesn't think so. He is engaged in this kind of business and has seen a lot of things. He is by no means a heartless person, but his thoughts are ruthless."
——That's because Mr. Sheng's elder brother was injured.He swung the knife full of anger, and of course the wound hurt.The knife must have been too late to swing down.
"Mr. Fu Kan also said, fortunately, Taiyi wasn't even chopped off. I should be glad."
"I think so too." Shengzhisuke said.
During this period of recuperation, Shengzhisuke didn't have much chance to have an in-depth chat with Hexiang.They only said some unimportant things, such as "every evening, the Japanese bell crickets make a lot of noise", "today Tsuta is not in a good mood", "today I borrowed such a book from Murata House", etc. , did not mention Katsunosuke at all.Not a word was said about the incident either.
The same is true for Jinda, she single-handedly takes care of Shengzhisuke.But unlike Kazuka, she took care of Shengzhisuke like a baby.When Shengzhisuke progressed from drinking rice soup, drinking three-point porridge, and five-point porridge to eating solid food, Jindo told him:
"Mr. Guqiao, do you still remember what my lady said at your pillow when you were wandering in front of the gate of hell?"
Sheng Zhisuke pretended to be garlic on purpose. "Can not remember……"
"She said, please don't leave me alone." Jindo then said seriously. "I also solemnly ask you here."
She only said it once, and never said it a second time, but this sentence was deeply rooted in Shengzhisuke's heart.
During the period of recuperating in Wada House, the autumn mood gradually deepened, and Shengzhisuke often thought alone.He didn't worry about the future, but rethought that night and everything that happened before like taking out an old book and flipping through the pages carefully.
He couldn't hate Big Brother.He vaguely felt that the elder brother was actually the one who was injured the most in this incident.The elder brother took the wrong road on the road of life.He always thought that he was walking the road of Qingyun, but it was just a lost path like "I don't know Hachiman Forest".
Nevertheless, the eldest brother still chose to take this path.He knew it well, now he couldn't turn back, he just wanted to chop off the weeds in front of him with his knife.Shengzhisuke seemed to block the way for the eldest brother, the wild grass that clung to the sleeves and the hem of the skirt pants.
Sheng Zhisuke often felt that the black shadow he saw that night was not the real figure of the elder brother, but the ghost of the elder brother. Maybe the elder brother died early at that time.He returned to the human world temporarily just to kill Shengzhisuke, and finally disappeared after being purified by Taichi's energetic child's cry.
Shengzhisuke's Wada room has a small courtyard attached to it.There is a maple tree that was planted just three years ago and is not too tall.The maple leaves have turned from green to red.
Now that he has recovered to this level, he can no longer lie down and has to try to walk.Under Dr. Genan's order, Shengzhisuke would come to this courtyard several times a day; sometimes he would walk back and forth on the outer corridors surrounding the courtyard.
One day when the autumn rain drenched the maple trees in the courtyard, someone from Wadaya told him that a guest was visiting. At first he thought it was Jihei, but unexpectedly it was Fukan. cover.Although Jibei said that Fukan was "in this kind of business", Fukan greeted him solemnly at this time, exuding the dignity of a big landlord, unlike ordinary managers.
"I am here today as a double agent." I am the agent of Murataya, and Murataya is the agent of Higashiya-sama, so I am a double agent—Fukan said. "Mr. Jihei said that he wanted to tell you this personally. He felt very painful. I will come here instead of him."
In order to avoid the cold wind full of rain, Shengzhisuke closed the paper door and sat facing Fukan.
"This morning, the dead body of a drunkard with the pseudonym Oshigome Yumenro appeared next to Baibonhang in Okawa. He was slashed from the shoulder with a knife and died. I heard that the wallet in his arms was lost. It may be that he was beheaded on the road. Test the knife."
Fu Kan seemed to be comforting Sheng Zhisuke, his eyes turned soft.
"...Sorry, so that both parties can accept it. Lord Donggu wants me to tell you this."
Is this acceptable to both parties?
"I can understand this sentence. Mr. Sheng, you should understand it, right?"
"Yes." Shengzhisuke replied.
"However, I can't understand the next message at all." Fu Kan made an opening remark, and then said like reciting. "The head of the Ito family retired due to illness. Kosuke Onochi has been dismissed and has left the feudal kingdom."
Shengzhisuke nodded.
"Bo Yeqian had improper money dealings with foreign merchants. This matter was exposed, his property was confiscated, and he was exiled elsewhere."
The group of people who treated the eldest brother Katsunosuke as a running dog, succumbed to the questioning of Sakazaki Shigehide and Joshiro’s old Imasaka Genemon, and used this as an excuse to make it public, sacrificing the accomplices who promoted the conspiracy together.But Higashiya and the others also sacrificed the witness Oshigome Yumenrou.They took his life, sealed his mouth, and made him disappear from the world.
——In the end, that person was eliminated.
When we were saying goodbye at Tone, Higashitani seemed to be reminding Shinosuke—do you have anything else you want to ask that man?Is there anything else you want to say to him?At that time, Donggu should have drawn up such a plan in his heart.He has long seen that only in this way can the two sides reach a compromise.
Shengzhisuke looked down at the ground without saying a word, and Fukan was also silent.Soon, Fu Kan resumed his original tone and said: "My work as an agent is over. I have another important matter here today. I have brought a guest."
Fu Kan raised his hand and tapped it a few times.
"Miss Jindo, please bring the guests in."
Only Jin Dalang answered "Yes" and opened the sliding door.Behind this tall waitress came a person...
"teacher!"
That person is Mr. Saeki from Yuexiangkan, and Ah Tim is also by his side.The two are in traveling clothes.
"Long time no see." The teacher said. "Let's hear what you have learned in Edo these days."
After greetings, Ah Tim left, Fukan also retreated respectfully to the corner of the room, and Shengzhisuke chatted with the teacher.Mr. Saeki said that he resigned as a Confucianist half a month ago and is arranging to move back to Edo.
"I don't know much about the affairs of the feudal clan. Although I don't know what happened in the castle, Mr. Kuroda privately suggested that I retire, and I also accepted his suggestion. He asked me to resign from the position of the owner of the Yuexiang Pavilion. It sounds good to spend the rest of my life leisurely as a Confucian of the Tian family, but as far as I am concerned, the Dagen Fan is a foreign land. I want to take this opportunity to return to Edo."
No matter where the teacher went, Grandma Ah Tim was always by her side.
"By the way, Shengzhisuke, you are a ghost with a good complexion now."
"what?"
"I heard that you died in Edo. Mr. Sakazaki, who stayed behind in Edo, officially received such a notification."
Although Mr. Saeki spoke seriously, the pair of slender eyes buried under his wrinkles were full of smiles.Behind him, Fu Kan, who was trying to keep his face expressionless, couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
"This...why am I already dead?"
"Unfortunately, I heard that you had a duel with your elder brother. The Furuhashi family lost the head of the family, Soyoemon-sama, under unfortunate circumstances, and the two brothers who were already at odds became even more at odds. The eldest brother found him and fled to Edo. younger brother, and the final duel between the two."
This is true, but not entirely true.
"And what about my elder brother?"
"I heard that he escaped."
That's right.Disappeared in the night.
"I don't know where he is now. He successfully killed his younger brother. I don't know whether he is satisfied or regretful at this time."
"teacher."
"Since the younger brother is dead, he is no longer the enemy of the elder brother. No one can kill a person who has died once."
So you just pretend to be dead.The teacher's words revealed the message that Shigehide Sakazaki wanted to convey.
"I heard that the mother of the Guqiao brothers cut her hair and turned into a nun. She prayed for her late husband and second son Shonosuke. At the same time, she worried about the safety of the eldest son Katsunosuke, and lived a life with the green light."
Sheng Zhisuke's mother Lie's face appeared in Sheng Zhisuke's eyes.The mother still had a straight face and didn't smile at Sheng Zhisuke.But that's good too, it's better than a sad face.Why has my life always been so bumpy - my mother must have complained to Buddha like this, while worshiping Buddha, which is very in line with the style of my mother's shrew.
Shengzhisuke sat upright again, and saluted Mr. Saeki with his hands on the ground.
"Thank you." Then he raised his face and saw Fu Kan nodding over the head of the short teacher.
"Master Kuroda gave me a sum of money." The teacher said. "I want to find a quiet place to study as a lay Confucian. As long as Ah Tim is around, I don't care where I live."
Sheng Zhisuke also thinks so.
"I will arrange Mr. Saeki's residence." Fu Kan interjected cleverly.
"I often heard Mr. Sakazaki say that you don't have to worry about anything if you leave it to Mr. Fukan."
"That's good."
"By the way, ghost. Do you want to be my assistant scholar again?"
This is a wishful proposal, but it's a pity that there is no way now - Shengzhisuke thought to himself, but Saeki-sensei and Fukan chuckled as if they had said it in advance.
"I thought of a way to bring ghosts back to the underworld." Fu Kan said with a joyful smile as he played with the long clothesline of his short coat. "Mr. Sheng, no, Mr. Ghost, didn't you all find a samurai lying down on the roadside at the Inari Shrine in front of the long house before you died, and did you work together to take care of him?"
That samurai was Sanyi Hyogo who cut through his belly with a blunt knife.
"Didn't he carry the family tree very preciously?"
How do you feel about borrowing his family tree—Fu Kan said.
"After careful investigation, the boss of Murata House and I found that there was a person's name written on it, who was about the same age as Mr. Sheng."
Sheng Zhisuke broke out in a cold sweat.Do you want me to pretend to be someone else?
"It's also a kind of fate to pay homage to that warrior, so it shouldn't matter."
Saiki-sensei nodded vigorously without hesitation. "I think it's a good idea."
"But, but this..."
"I'm a bit of a peddler when I say it myself, but I'm an experienced manager. It's not a problem to have one or two more tenants. It's all on me."
Fu Kan, the guarantor, should be able to do anything...
Furuhashi Shengnosuke will be reborn as another person, and he remembers that it seems to be the family tree of the "Yamakata" family.
When Shengzhisuke was in a daze, the teacher suddenly called out: "My apprentice."
"Ah, yes."
"You really are in a mess."
This is a sentence Ah Tian taught Sheng Zhisuke.It means to go through ups and downs and be prepared for hardships.
Yes - Sheng Zhisuke responded.
"Sheng Zhisuke's life is over. From now on, you will start another life. This road may be equally difficult, but the so-called knowledge is used to overcome the suffering in this world."
To encourage each other—— Teacher Saeki said.
A familiar smell appeared in Shengnosuke's dinner this day.It was fried tofu and pickled okonomiyaki made by Granny Ah Tim herself.
"I asked her how to pickle dried radishes," said Jindo, who came to serve the meal. "The pickles made by experienced people really have a different taste."
Shengzhisuke savored the dishes in front of him carefully.The person who came to collect the tableware was He Xiang.You eat really cleanly——He Xiang narrowed his eyes to look at the empty bowls and plates, and then made him a cup of tea.
"Miss Hexiang."
I seem to be a different person.Sheng Zhisuke briefly explained the whole story.
This is the beginning of a lie, and we must stick to this lie for the rest of our lives.
He Xiang pondered for a while and said, "Since Mr. Fu Kan will arrange your residence, then Mr. Saeki, Mrs. A Tian, and the new assistant scholar of the teacher should not go too far away, right?"
"It should be so."
"Then I forgive you."
"However, in order to avoid unexpected encounters with people who know me in the domain, I should move outside Edo Castle."
Mr. Saeki will no longer accept disciples in the future. He wants to live a peaceful life isolated from the world, which is just right.
"It's okay, I will visit you next time." After hesitating for a moment, He Xiang made up his mind to add a sentence. "If Mr. Guqiao wants to go far away in the future, I will do the same."
What He Xiang meant was that she, the caged bird, had come out of the cage.
"You won't be able to take on the job of Murata House in the future, right?"
"No, I'll take the initiative to sell him."
Shengzhisuke told Hexiang what he had said to Jihei.He mentioned "Sanba Wild Love Hometown Record" and how there are many records of saving the wilderness in the world.
"I hope to find more disaster relief records in the future to compile and promote to the world. This is the work I want to do."
Although it is still just a dream, this life is picked, so what does it matter if you have such a big dream.
He Xiang nodded after hearing the words. "Please let me help you."
In this case, let's visit the Miyachino clan together.Maybe there will be such a day in the future.
No, not maybe, it will actually be implemented.
It began to rain at dusk, and the sound of raindrops hitting the trees and flowers in the garden could be heard.He Xiang was listening attentively.
Shengzhisuke looked at her calm side face, and suddenly felt a wave of excitement welling up in his heart.The thought that had been buried in his heart was finally turned into words at this moment, he opened his mouth and said:
"My elder brother..."
Kazuka looked at Shengnosuke.
"Perhaps one day in the future, he will become a person like Oshigome Yumenrou." As soon as the words came out, he immediately shook his head. "No, I reversed the order. It should mean that Oshigome Gomenrou might have been like my elder brother when he was young."
Broken dreams, lost hope, cynical, resentful, living a life of debauchery...
"Perhaps," Hexiang said, "Despite being so angry, your brother may not become a person like Oshigome Yumenrou. Maybe he will find another way to survive."
He will come out of the darkness to find a place to live and find a new way to survive.
"If there is such a day, you may meet again. But I think that Mr. Furuhashi and brother Ling will have changed a lot by then, and you will not recognize each other." He Xiang suddenly fell silent, looking at Sheng Zhisuke and hastily apologized. "Sorry. I talk too much."
The sound of the rain ticking incessantly sounds very pleasant, as if it is lulling you to sleep.
"The maple trees here are small, but they are beautiful, right?"
"Yes. Watching it morning and night is pleasing to the eye."
"My father originally wanted to plant a cherry tree, but I begged him to plant a maple tree. Because the cherry tree next to the Fukan long house is enough for the cherry tree."
The two were silent for a moment.
"It all started with that cherry tree, and a lot happened in this short period of time."
He Xiang was recalling that time, showing a mature look in his eyes looking into the distance.
Sheng Zhijie said: "The falling cherry blossoms are chaotic."
"what?"
"It means to go through ups and downs and prepare for hardships. I heard that Ms. Ah Tim's hometown said so."
Falling cherry blossoms in disorder——He Xiang repeated softly, and then she smiled like a flower blooming.
"Our situation is different. Should it be 'Beautiful Cherry Blossoms'?"
Because of the relationship with the cherry tree, he happened to meet the cherry blossom elf. At this moment, Shengzhisuke was sitting side by side with her.
"So that's it. It really looks like Ms. Hexiang's style. It's a really good change."
"Next spring, let's go to that cherry tree to enjoy the cherry blossoms together."
He Xiang blushed, and hastily added another sentence.
"Mr. Ghost."
Shengzhisuke nodded with a smile.
"Okay, we must go."
Tonight, the cherry tree must also be nourished by the autumn rain by the river, dreaming of the coming of spring.
