Chapter 15 love wine

The result of spiritual love is always marriage, while physical love often seems to stop at a certain stage, with little hope of marriage.There is only one problem with spiritual love: in the process of love, women often cannot understand what men say.
It is said that people in love will lose their minds and lose themselves.All the rationality and control in the daily life will give birth to a rebellious heart in the face of love.Those proud souls become very humble once they encounter love.As long as you love, all the time is soft.At that time, I forgot my name and age.Just remember, wherever your loved one is, you can afford stability in this world.

Love is a glass of poisoned wine, many people drink it without hesitation with a smile on their lips.Not because of stupidity, but because of involuntary.The world is so big, there are so many passers-by, and it is hard to meet you, how can you abandon it in the crowd.Why do those who pursue bravely always lose cowardly?Where did those people who said they would never be separated end up? When you love, you don't care about the many things, you don't care about the future, you don't care about the ending, you only care about the present.Inexplicably, many emotions arose like that, inexplicably wanting to swear to someone, and inexplicably hurting myself for love.When you are in love, how can you have time to ask cause and effect.If it is right, it will be regarded as the grace of the years; if it is wrong, it will be regarded as a joke of life.

Hu Lancheng never cared about those many things. Even if the person he identified was thousands of miles away from him, he would swear to pursue him to the death.Even if it was just a dewy marriage, he would not allow himself to miss it.In 1944, when the spring was cold, Hu Lancheng returned to Shanghai from Nanjing. He went to the editorial department to find Su Qing.Without dodging in the slightest, he directly asked the woman named Zhang Ailing.Su Qing said: "Zhang Ailing doesn't see anyone." Maybe someone heard this sentence and suddenly felt hopeless to meet each other.But Hu Lancheng was very pleasantly surprised when he heard it, because he knew that this woman was really different from others.

Room 65, 6th Floor, Apartment No. 192, Hede Crossing, Jing'an Temple Road.This is the address Hu Lancheng got from Su Qing. As for whether there is a relationship, it is up to him to decide.Hu Lancheng would go of course, and in such a hurry.The next day, he dressed in a blue robe, refined and elegant, and knocked on the closed door.This year Hu Lancheng was thirty-eight years old, for a man who had tasted the world, it should be the best time.However, it is this man who has gone through the years that makes Zhang Ailing, who Qiushui cares about, very close to him. The person who opened the door was Eileen Chang's aunt. She used her usual attitude to reject all readers who came to Eileen Eileen Chang. Hu Lancheng was no exception, because at this time he was just a strange visitor.Before Hu Lancheng could finish speaking, the door that had been opened for a moment was about to close again.Hu Lancheng forgot to bring his business card, so he hurriedly took out a pen and paper and wrote down his name and phone number.Just passed it in through the narrow door, and when he turned to leave, Hu Lancheng was still safe.

When Zhang Ailing saw the note and faced the three words Hu Lancheng, she really felt different.This name is not unfamiliar to her, whether it is from Su Qing's mouth, or the many rumors in Shanghai, or other things, Eileen Chang has an impression.After all, the aunt is someone who has been there, and she has also heard about Hu Lancheng and his complicated background, so she feels that Eileen Chang should be cautious. In the afternoon of the next day, Zhang Ailing called Hu Lancheng and told her that she was going to pay a return visit to his home.Maybe many people don't understand that Zhang Ailing, who is usually withdrawn, treats visiting guests and even her relatives with indifference, why Dudu is willing to bow her eyebrows so low to Hu Lancheng, who has never met before.Is she lonely?Or does she have a sense that this man is different from those ordinary people?Is it the thread called fate that draws it?Or maybe just curious.

In short, Zhang Ailing arrived as scheduled and went to Hu Lancheng's home in Shanghai, Meili Garden on Daxi Road.Hu Lancheng's family is taken care of by his niece Qingyun, perhaps because of Zhang Ailing's arrival today, she took care of it deliberately.Hu Lancheng definitely looked forward to this meeting. He had thought a thousand times about the appearance of a woman who could write such amazing words.Perhaps in his heart, a real Zhang Ailing has already been portrayed.In fact, as early as in the magazine, Hu Lan had seen a photo of Eileen Chang. Apart from knowing her youthful age, the rest was not clear enough after all.

And does Zhang Ailing also have a faint desire for this man with a special background in this troubled world?Presumably there are, but we can't know exactly how she feels.When I first met, Hu Lancheng had a detailed description: "When I saw Zhang Ailing, I felt that it was completely different from what I thought. When she came into the living room, it seemed that she was too big. Sitting there, she looked childish and pitiful. Let’s say she is a female student, and she doesn’t even have the maturity of a female student. I’m even afraid that she’s living in poverty, thinking that wartime cultural people are suffering, but she can’t make me think she’s a writer.”

What does this feel like?Disappointed?Surprised?Are you confused?In short, Hu Lancheng, who considers himself romantic, has seen many women.There are all kinds of charming, pure and lovely, charming and enchanting, simple and generous, but I have never met such a woman.Her aura permeates from the bottom of her bones, it can instantly captivate one's soul, but she can't tell what it's like. "Zhang Ailing's indomitable, the world will be shaken in six ways, my living room has become inappropriate today... Her vitality is not strong, nor is it charming, but I feel that the people in front of me are all her people..." Hu Lancheng The expression confuses readers. People who have met Zhang Ailing in the past probably said that she is tall, thin, gentle and arrogant.However, in front of such an imposing man as Hu Lancheng, Zhang Ailing was infinitely magnified.It seems that she is a "god" who descended from the sky, and people cannot avoid it, but can only focus on her.

Many years later, Hu Lancheng's niece Qingyun also had a special impression of her when she first met Zhang Ailing: "Zhang Ailing is tall, not beautiful, and looks a little taller than my uncle. The clothes are different from others—— Outlandish clothes. She made shoes by herself. Half of the shoes are yellow and half are black. No one else wears this kind of shoes; she wears ancient clothes made of clothes. She is not beautiful, nor is she the kind of woman that people like immediately.Her appearance completely disrupted Hu Lancheng's definition and standards of beauty. "It's a concept, it must be like that, and even the love of beauty has stereotyped feelings, it must be something, but Eileen Chang overturned me. I always think that I know what is amazing. When encountering real things, But beauty is not that kind of beauty, and shock is not that kind of surprise."

Such a unparalleled woman still surprised him after all.He was even resisting looking up to her to cover up his panic. "I wanted to fight Aileen, criticize the current popular works to her, and say that her articles are good, and I also talked about my things in Nanjing, because in front of her, I have myself so clearly. "After all, it was Eileen Chang, who was only twenty-four years old, and she who had never been in love before made Hu Lancheng, a seasoned veteran, so at a loss. Zhang Ailing exudes temperament and beauty from the bottom of her heart. How can her words and feelings be beyond the reach of ordinary women in the world?Hu Lancheng would not be unaware that such a woman would make the mountains and rivers lose their color when they get deep, and the years will turn into dust.Such a woman is a peerless beauty that you will never meet even if you are exhausted.This kind of incomparable astonishment naturally made his heart throb.

Such a small talk lasted five hours.If you are a close friend, five hours of conversation is not too long.But for two strangers who meet for the first time, five hours of conversation is indeed a long time.Besides, Eileen Chang is very reticent on weekdays, why did she talk so much to Hu Lancheng?Could it be that what she usually sees are young men with little experience in the world, and when she suddenly meets a man with many stories like Hu Lancheng, she has some unspeakable thoughts in her heart.After all, it is really hard for Zhang Ailing to have the slightest reason to be intoxicated by those frivolous men without connotation. Hu Lancheng is a pot of wine that has been preserved by time. After going through the four seasons of frost and seeing the succession and transition of life, it has its own depth and tranquility.Zhang Ailing's heart that has been alone for twenty years needs to be fed by a clear and profound person.Therefore, she couldn't help tasting this glass of old wine, and was deeply moved by it. Hu Lancheng said this: "My surprise is before I know her, so she likes it because I am really unconditional. And her love is also before knowing her own feelings. It's so strange, I don't know if I don't understand It can also be a bosom friend." This kind of bewitching encounter is beyond our comprehension after all.How they fell in love with a stranger like this, how they tried to hide it in their hearts like this, we can't say. In her eyes, he is a bowl of fermented rice mixed with all the flavors of the world, which is extremely mellow, and there is no such taste in the world.In his eyes, she is a red peony that blooms so brightly and barrenly that there is no such color in the world.Five hours of conversation, but still unfinished.Originally reluctant to leave like this, but the good time is late, no matter how beautiful the banquet is, it will come to an end. Zhang Ailing was about to leave, and Hu Lancheng sent her to the entrance of the alley, walking side by side, each other in a trance.Hu Lancheng inadvertently said a word: "You are so tall, how can this be okay?" Just this one sentence brought the two people so close.Zhang Ailing was surprised and even disliked it a little.In their hearts, they really feel so good. Yes, that's good.With just one sentence like this, he is willing to protect Hong Kong and protect her well.And she is willing to become a boat and run aground for him.
