It all started that afternoon.On the beach in Qingdao, when the two-year-old boy threw himself into Qiu Feng's arms and suddenly grabbed her nipple.Afterwards, when everything had subsided and Qiu Feng was living alone in Australia's Keith Island, this scene often flashed in front of her.She thought, all of this was almost predestined. From that moment on, her and her husband's fate was doomed. At that time, Qiu Feng had been married to Xiao Shuihan for six years. According to the pre-marital agreement, they would not have children for the rest of their lives, so the two married single aristocrats lived a very chic life.During the vacation, they go all over the world to have fun.However, after a long time, the progesterone in Qiu Feng's body began to play a role, and the woman's innate motherhood began to cry.She often borrowed a friend's child home, poured out her mother's love for a day, and was still reluctant to part when she was leaving.He Yibing and Xie Ling, her husband's subordinates, are close friends of her family. Knowing Qiu Feng's emotional needs, they often send their little Yuanyuan over to play with Qiu Feng for a day.Yuanyuan is very close to her, and has never realized the difference between "pro-mother" and "Qiu's mother". If there is any, it is that Qiu's mother dotes on her more and can satisfy her any request.

The day is always very short.In the evening, Yuanyuan got into her father's car and raised her little hand to say goodbye to her.At this time, Qiu Feng would look at her husband sadly, hoping that her husband's decision could be relaxed.But the husband always didn't notice (at least on the surface), and sent the child and her parents away with a smile, closing the courtyard door. Occasionally, she would resent her husband in her heart, resenting that he used some "previous life" vows to destroy the fun of this life.It was really the strangest vow, carried on from the husband's vain "previous life".The husband believed in this very much—believed in his "previous life" and all that was left of his "previous life".Qiu Feng is often puzzled by this. You must know that her husband is not a religious obsessive, but a scientist with a high IQ. He can even be said to be a philosopher and a prophet. They can all see it with a smile.He shouldn't be caught in the vicious circle of "past lives and past lives".

However, generally speaking, Qiu Feng can restrain his desire to be a mother and keep his promise to her husband. Before marrying Xiao Shuihan, she solemnly made this promise. In the summer of 2149, they flew to Qingdao to escape the summer heat.They live in Wuhan, and their villa is by the Yangtze River.Wuhan is famous for its scorching heat, and the heat wave by the river is even more pressing.So the couple always go to some summer resorts for the summer, such as Qingdao, Dalian, Urumqi, Australia... Usually they don't go home until autumn starts to fall.Fortunately, the husband's Tianyuan company is basically managed by He Yibing, and the husband has gradually withdrawn from company affairs since six years ago, that is, after marriage.

The taxi took them to the foot of Mount Lao and walked through the narrow alleys.Xiao Shuihan pointed to the driver: right, forward, maybe left, yes, then left, the hotel in front will be there.The taxi stopped, and in front of it was a rather simple hotel with an inconspicuous sign saying "Yuebin Hotel".Qiu Feng looked at her husband strangely. She didn't think the hotel was shabby, but after so many years of marriage, when her husband took her out, she always stayed in the most luxurious hotel in the area.Why do you live here today?Moreover, judging by the way the husband looks, he is very familiar with this place.

Judging from the scale, this is a family-style hotel. The male host came up and asked the two if they wanted to stay.Xiao Shuihan said yes, and would stay here for one night, but first I wanted to ask, was the original owner of this hotel Mr. Ji Zuobin?The boss kept saying yes, yes, sir, do you know my father?Xiao Shuihan didn't answer directly, but asked: "Is Mr. Ji still alive? He should be 75 years old." "He's still alive, except for the disability of his legs and feet - which was caused by his illness since childhood - his body is quite strong. He lives in the back, do you want to call him over?"

"No, I went to see him, my wife and I went to see him." Qiu Feng looked at her husband suspiciously. She didn't recognize this Mr. Ji, and she had never heard him mention this name, but he didn't explain to her.The boss led them through the corridor built by wisteria to a small building behind.In the living room on the first floor, an old man was sitting in a wheelchair. His white hair was like snow, his face was covered with wrinkles, and his legs were thin and curved, curled up under his buttocks. He was congenitally disabled.The boss leaned over and told his father in a low voice that two of his acquaintances were visiting.The old man stared at Xiao Shuihan, trying to remember.Xiao Shuihan stepped forward to shake hands with the old man, said with a smile:

"Mr. Ji, hello. You don't know me, but we have a common acquaintance. Do you still remember Mr. Sun Siyuan from Langyatai?" "Remember! Remember!" The old man became excited immediately. His hearing was not bad and his thinking was very clear. "It's been 50 years. Mr. Sun hired someone to carry me up Laoshan Mountain with a sliding pole 50 years ago. Don't look at me living under Laoshan Mountain. That was the first time I went up the mountain... Good man, I'm not related to me... Excuse me sir You belong to Mr. Sun..." Xiao Shuihan shook his head with a smile: "No, actually I don't know Mr. Sun. I heard about this by accident at a banquet."

From the conversation between the two, Qiu Feng gradually figured out what was going on.This old man Ji Zuobin was born with a disability. He was very poor when he was young, and he managed a small hotel to make ends meet.Once, Mr. Sun was staying here, and accidentally heard that he lived at the foot of Laoshan Mountain but had never been to Laoshan Mountain, so he quietly hired a slider and carried him around the mountain for a day.After that, Mr. Sun came to live here again, but that was more than forty years ago.But Qiu Feng didn't understand why her husband had anything to do with this incident, where did he hear about it, and why he came here today.But the husband quickly answered the question.He asked the old man:

"Did you go to Laoshan again after that?" The old man shook his head.The innkeeper blushed, and replied on behalf of his father: No.It's not because of money. His family's financial situation has improved a long time ago.But he has always been poor and busy, so he didn't take this matter very seriously. He also mentioned it to his father, but the old man refused to talk about it, and he didn't seriously persuade him.Xiao Shuihan said with a smile: "I am here today to fulfill my wish on behalf of Mr. Sun. Mr. Ji, tomorrow I will hire a slider and take you to Laoshan for another day, okay?"

The old man looked at him, his eyes suddenly filled with tears.Seeing this, his son hurriedly said: "No, how can I make you spend money? I'll hire someone. We should have thought of it a long time ago. Dad, you..." The old man waved his hand and said decisively: "No, let this gentleman pay the money. It's not about two hundred yuan, what is rare is this kind of affection. I have met good people all my life." The son sighed and stopped talking.When he went out to find the sliding pole, the old man took Xiao Shuihan and asked about Sun Siyuan's situation, but Xiao Shuihan didn't know anything. He said that he and Mr. Sun only met once at the banquet, and never heard of him afterward. .The old man was very regretful and sighed: "What a good man, that is a good man. I once asked someone to inquire at Langya Terrace, and they said that Mr. Sun disappeared 30 years ago, and his life and death are unknown. How could such a good man disappear? Pray for him in my heart. I think he must be alive, good man, God will protect him."

Carrying the old man Ji on the sliding pole, the group toured along the scenic spot along the southern line of Laoshan Mountain.The boss didn't come, he had to take care of the hotel, and the old man wouldn't let him come.The old man said that I hit it off with these two guests, so don't follow me to spoil my interest.The boss heard that the old man was somewhat angry, shook his head slightly, and agreed with a smile.The old man was very excited and talkative along the way.He acted as a tour guide for a group of people and pointed out to everyone the "Old Man Stone" by the sea. Except for the old man's arms and armpits, they are indeed similar in spirit and shape.Along with the itinerary, he introduced the peony from the Shangqing Palace and Naidong from the Xiaqing Palace, saying that these are the two flowers that turned into beauties Xiangyu and Jiangxue on the "Liaozhai".Introduced Tang Yu in the Sanguan Palace and Han Bai in front of the Sanhuang Palace, and also seriously argued to the guests that when Xu Fu of the Qin Dynasty went to sea to seek the elixir of life, he did not go to the sea through Langya, but to Laoshan. Look at us To the south there are two islands, one large and one small, where Xu Fu went into the sea. Now they are called Big and Small Fu Islands, also known as Xu Fu Islands.Qiu Feng jokingly said: It's a pity that Xu Fu didn't ask for the elixir of life. If he asked for it, it must be the people in Laoshan who benefited first, and they all lived forever.Yes or no?The old man raised his beard and laughed: "That's good, that's good—it's not good, if that's the case, this place will become the old immortals of the Qin Dynasty, where will our generation be left?" This passage stunned Qiu Feng, who stayed for a while, and then said to her husband: "Uncle is right. From ancient times to the present, people only hope to live forever, so no one thinks of this verse?" Xiao Shuihan smiled and said: "At least, Qin Shihuang definitely didn't think of this verse. He is a person who regards the world as his own private property. He only cares about his own longevity, and at most his descendants. How can he worry about the people of the world and future generations?" people?" When we arrived at the Qianqian Stone at the top of Laoshan Mountain, the sliding pole stopped to rest.Old man Ji saw things and fell in love again, and fell into the memory again: "Mr. Xiao, you don't know how much influence Mr. Sun took me to visit Laoshan that time on my life. Before that, I was living day by day, and my body was disabled. , Life is hard, I can’t marry a wife, and I wonder why God let people like me come to this world to suffer. I have a gloomy face all day long, and I don’t look good to customers. Living at that time really tortured myself and others. Later Mr. Sun came here, not because of relatives, but because I heard that I was born at the foot of Laoshan but had never been to Laoshan, so he paid me to go up the mountain to play. The key is not money, even if I am the poorest, I can collect one or two hundred It’s not that I can’t make up a dollar. The key is the state of mind, his love. After going up the mountain for a day, I really feel like I’m enlightened. Since then, I’ve lived a happy life, got married, and the hotel has become more and more prosperous. I will never forget Mr. Sun for the rest of my life." He really wanted to ask about the relationship between Xiao Shuihan and Sun Siyuan.According to common sense, the two are always related, not as simple as "I heard about it at the banquet", otherwise Mr. Xiao would not come here to fulfill Mr. Sun's wish.But since Xiao didn't want to say it, there was always a reason why he didn't want to say it.One thing is certain: Mr. Xiao is as good a person as Mr. Sun, and it is his blessing to meet two such good people in his life. The Xiao couple broke up with the old man from the top of Laoshan Mountain. Xiao Shuihan paid the money in advance and told the two husbands to take good care of the old man.The old man was very excited, but he didn't say much, he just said goodbye at the hotel tonight.The slider went away, and the two came to the beach of Touchstone Bay.The waves gently beat against the porous reefs on the shore, and the white cruise ship sticks out from the horizon, sending intermittent music with the sea breeze.Listen carefully, it is Russian music, or the music of the old Soviet Union: nights outside Moscow.Hearing this piece of music from more than 200 years ago at this moment, it evokes nostalgic thoughts.But the young Qiu Feng had nothing to do with these thoughts. She was wearing a red bikini swimsuit, lying happily in the sand nest, kicking her legs, and her light black naked back was covered with white sand.Xiao Shuihan sat on the beach with his knees hugged, squinting his eyes at the connection between the sea and the sky, slightly sad, and meditated for a long time without saying a word.Some words of the old man today stirred up ripples in his heart, and the ripples were expanding, stirring up a hundred years of precipitation.But these cannot be told to Qiu Feng, she is too young to understand these. At this time, a two-year-old child staggered into their circle, and his parents followed far behind, apparently training the child to walk.The boy has a tiger head and a tiger brain, his arms are white and tender like lotus root joints, and he has a sweet smile on his face, very cute.Qiu Feng has always liked all children, so of course she would not let go of this opportunity. She picked up the child and asked his name.The boy did not admit his birth, and said inarticulately: "My name is Grasshopper, the squeaky Grasshopper." "What a good name. Have you ever seen a grasshopper? It has wings, two long legs, and jumps on the ground. Haven't seen it? Come and play with auntie, okay? Auntie will help you catch the grasshopper tomorrow." .” "I play with my aunt." He thought about it and added, "Auntie is beautiful." Qiu Feng smiled stylishly: "Little sycophant, you will be sweet at such a young age." Qiu Feng has always had an affinity for all children, and the two soon became crazy, rolling and fighting in the sand nest, the boy's parents stopped a few meters away, and watched from a distance with a smile.Xiao Shuihan walked over and said with a smile: "My wife likes children the most, let them go crazy. Your grasshopper is so beautiful and cute." The child's mother said proudly: "He is a cute guy, but he is too naughty. Sir, how old is your child?" Xiao Shuihan shook his head: "The two of us have no children yet, and we don't want children." The child's mother looked at her husband and said nothing.Qiu Feng was lying in the sand, holding the child high up. The child was probably laughing like crazy, and he was incontinent when he urinated.Qiu Feng was taken aback, his hand softened, the child bumped into his arms, unintentionally pulled off Qiu Feng's bra, revealing the white and firm breasts.This accident caused the camera to freeze for a few seconds, and the child's mother was stunned for a moment, then hurried over to tidy up Qiu Feng's clothes.The child's father stopped in embarrassment and turned his gaze to the side.The little guy who caused the trouble didn't hesitate for a moment, and immediately rushed over, held her breasts, and murmured: Grandma, eat grandma. Qiu Feng's nipple was bitten by him, and a wave of extreme pleasure shot out from the nipple nerve to the body.Qiu Feng looked up at her husband, without any warning, tears flowed down her face very fiercely.She just looked at her husband with tears in her eyes, without saying a word, which scared the child to tears. Although the bra being pulled off was embarrassing, it was a comedy plot after all, but Qiu Feng's tears made Mother Grasshopper a little overwhelmed.She hurriedly pulled the child out of Qiu Feng's arms, and scolded: "Look at you, you're so cute! Didn't you hurt my aunt?" Turning around, she explained to Qiu Feng and his wife, "The grasshopper picked milk late, just picked milk, and was hungry. Look, look..." Grasshopper was crying, turning his head to peek at Auntie from time to time, still wondering in his little mind: He didn't bite hard, why did Auntie cry?Her tears were so unreasonable.Xiao Shuihan picked up the child calmly, sent him back to his parents, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, it's okay, it's a momentary impulse, she likes children too much, but unfortunately we... It's okay, you go, I will slowly persuade her .” Grasshopper's parents took the baby and left. They kept looking back at Qiu Feng who was still weeping, thinking that one of the couple must be barren, and the longing for the baby had caused the wife's emotional hunger.They are sympathetic, but there is nothing they can do.Xiao Shuihan came over and carefully fastened his wife's bra, put his arms around his wife's shoulders, and slowly changed the subject.Qiu Feng's personality is very easy-going and optimistic. After half an hour, he forgot his sentimentality and started talking and laughing. They went back to the hotel very late that night, and they didn't see Mr. Ji, who had a disabled leg.The next morning when they went to the counter to check out, the boss and his son were waiting in the hall. Seeing them, the boss said first: "Don't mention the accommodation fee, don't mention it. Dad was very happy yesterday. I haven't seen you in so many years." He is so happy. A few lodging fees are my petty concern." Xiao Shuihan smiled: "Okay, respect is worse than obedience. Thank you, Mr. Ji." The old man in the wheelchair smiled with satisfaction.The boss took the conversation back again: "Also, please accept this package of gifts." Only then did the Xiao couple see a huge travel bag, bulging.The boss lowered his voice and said: "Don't refuse, I bought them on the orders of my father. They are Laoshan specialties, such as seabed green jade, Laoshan crystal stones, Laoshan tea, abalone, fairy fetus fish, etc. I said so many things to bring. Luo Suo, the old man was almost impatient with me. Bring it, it's a little kindness from the old man." Qiu Feng looked at her husband in embarrassment.This package of gifts was worth a few dollars, and she didn't want the old man to spend it.Besides, they didn't bring a car for this trip, and it was inconvenient to transfer by plane with such a big bag.Xiao Shuihan winked at his wife and said bluntly, "Okay, we'll bring it. Old man, thank you for the gift. Next time we come to Laoshan, we will go into the mountain together." Seeing the guest accepting the gift, old man Ji was really happy, and smiled like a child: "Okay, okay, let's go together. I have a special affinity with the two of you, and I think of Mr. Sun when I see you. I'm afraid that you will come next time I won’t be able to go at that time, time is not forgiving, maybe one day the ghost of impermanence will come to the door.” There was a trace of desolation in his joy. Qiu Feng has never been considered a caring girl, maybe because she is young, maybe because she has no children, after six years of marriage, she has not yet completed the transformation from a girl to a woman.For her, every day is a new sun, every day is full of fun.She likes children very much, and is even more eager for the child she gave birth to, but since this cannot be fulfilled—they made a solemn agreement when they got married—she also does not want to be sad needlessly, and she is all about the sadness that occasionally bursts out in her heart. Can self-resolve. But Xiao Shuihan found that his wife's mood was a little different after returning from Qingdao. It seemed that she was particularly stimulated this time.She loves Yuanyuan as a guest even more, and after sending Yuanyuan away, her eyes often turn red and she feels sad.She avoided Xiao Shuihan in all of this.When her eyes were red and she was sad, as soon as Xiao Shuihan came into the room, she would cheer up quickly, or hide in the bathroom with an excuse.But because of this alone, her grief was heavier than it had been before. In Qiu Feng's eyes, the husband seemed to have forgotten the scene at Laoshan Beach.In the following months, he kept silent about this matter, and there was nothing unusual in his speech and behavior.However, Qiu Feng, who was young and inexperienced, couldn't see the agitation in his husband's heart.Xiao Shuihan really wanted to satisfy his wife's desire to be a mother. For couples with childbearing potential, this is the easiest wish to realize, but Xiao Shuihan couldn't easily promise it—this involved a bloody poisonous oath, involving his dream soul A past life that I will not forget. Summer ends and autumn arrives, winter goes to spring, Qiu Feng gradually heals the wound in his heart. One night eight months later, it was early summer, and the pomegranate tree in front of the window was covered with fire-like flowers.Qiu Feng went to bed after taking a bath, and slipped into her husband's arms with a smile. Today is the weekend, and she wants to have a crazy time with her husband.Her husband held her in his arms as usual, gently stroking her smooth back, looking generous and calm.Maybe it's the difference in age between the two, maybe it's the difference in personality, in Qiu Feng's eyes, Xiao Shuihan has never been just an equal husband, he is also an elder brother, a loving father, and a protector.She raised her head and stared at her husband's face, where the skin was smooth, no wrinkles, no eye bags, no gray hair, no signs of aging, not like a 50-year-old at all.Sometimes Qiu Feng even seriously suspected that her husband was not 44 years old when he got married, and he made a big joke with himself.But then again, judging from her husband's calm and peaceful personality, without any fireworks, he is more like an old man who has gone through vicissitudes.He is an unpredictable person, a collection of contradictions.She was so fascinated by it, her husband bowed his head and kissed him, and asked with a smile: "What are you thinking?" "Me? I didn't think about anything, I was just thinking, your face and body are so young, you don't look like a 50-year-old at all." Xiao Shuihan jokingly said: "I stole the art of retaining beauty from the Queen Mother of the West." He suddenly said calmly: "Feng, I've changed my mind, let's have a child." Qiu Feng was stunned, and sat up naked, looking straight at her husband, unable to believe his ears.The husband smiled and nodded.When Qiu Feng confirmed this, big tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes, she got into her husband's arms, grabbed his neck, and said in a choked voice: "Shuihan, you don't have to break your oath for me. I was weak for a while, and now I've thought about it. I really want to. Look, I haven't been depressed recently. Besides, we can adopt one. When we get married, you As I said, we cannot have biological children, but we can adopt them." The husband smiled heartily: "No, I changed my mind. Why should I imprison myself with the oath I made in my previous life?" He told his wife that he had been thinking about this decision for 8 months, and today's words were by no means a whim.Qiu Feng asked suspiciously: "But your poisonous oath..." "Forget it, I'm going to completely forget it." His smile was so bright that Qiu Feng believed his words.After all, to ruin the life of this life because of the poisonous oath left by the previous life-this is too bizarre and too inconsistent with the husband.It must have been a permanent scar from some kind of psychological trauma, and it was good news that my husband had finally brushed off the shadow.She laughed, with tears in her eyes.Xiao Shuihan thought lovingly: She is really like a tearful crabapple. He kissed the teardrops off his wife's cheeks and told her that in order to start a new life and to forget the haunted past life, he had decided to give up Tianyuan Bioengineering Company, and to be with his wife and, of course, his future children. My son went to settle on an isolated island in Australia.He asked his wife if she agreed.When he talked about the arrangements for the rest of his life, the heaviness that had been driven away in Qiu Feng's heart slowly gathered again.Only then did she know what kind of decision her husband had made and how much sacrifice he had made for this seemingly easy decision.That nightmare is still there, it's not as easy as brushing away a cloud.Her face was full of smiles and tears, she couldn't speak, she just nodded vigorously. Their lovemaking was very devoted and passionate that night. Qiu Feng solemnly took over the seed of life from her husband.She will always remember this night.In the riverside villas in early summer, the moon and stars are scarce, the clouds are light and the wind is light, the tulle curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows are gently blowing, the wind chimes hanging from the ceiling make crisp and bright impacts, and the distant sound of river flutes rolls over from the river.From ancient times to today, how many whispers of lovers and passion of husband and wife can be accommodated in a moonless night?The love between a man and a woman is the most precious thing in nature. It is the crystallization of the unity of man and nature. The law of racial reproduction has evolved into a brilliant flower of life.The pleasure of making love, the love of the opposite sex, and the motherhood of women are all the artisticization of this law.After that, she got into her husband's broad arms, gently counted his ribs and spine joints with her fingers, whispered softly, and raised her head from time to time to give a long kiss.Gradually, she became tired, and her nickname gradually brought sleepiness.Later she fell asleep on her husband's chest, sleeping very peacefully. Xiao Shuihan quietly pulled out his arms from his wife's neck, put on his clothes lightly, got out of bed, and walked to the balcony. Their villa was built on the hillside, and the balcony was extremely wide. The night wind played freely on the balcony, blowing up his pajamas.Looking down, on the winding road along the river, the car lights are like silently shaking light ropes, and the neon lights in the distance shrink into blurred light clusters.Farther away is the dark surface of the river, and the brightly lit riverboat slides past in nothingness like an elf.The summer night sky is deep and blue, the crescent moon is like a hook, and the stars are like beans.He thought that some of these stars were billions of light-years away from Earth, and when they left their planets to start this excursion, life on Earth might not have been born.Therefore, the starlight is actually the sigh of the billions of years old.How short life is compared to the infinite universe of time and space. He made an exception and lit a cigarette, the butt of which flickered in the night wind, reflecting his gloomy face.His wife was still soundly asleep, her long jet-black hair hung loose over her snow-white pajamas, revealing her smooth thighs and exquisite feet.She dreamed of something—probably dreaming of a future child, the corners of her mouth twitched, and a wave of laughter ran across her face.Xiao Shuihan sighed softly, and quietly returned to the bed.He still kept that matter from his young wife, but how long could he keep it from. Qiu Feng is a girl as pure and fragile as an ice flower.He couldn't bear to tell her that the ending was too cruel for her.However, one day she has to face reality, she can't live in a dream forever. When Qiu Feng woke up with a smile, her husband had already fallen asleep.She didn't understand her husband's mind at all, and she was single-mindedly weaving crimson dreams for herself.Just now she dreamed of her own child, with chubby hands and feet, the first puppy tooth growing out of his mouth, wearing the open pants that she made for him (her?), lying in her arms and gurgling Swallowing milk, she held up the baby, and a stream of clear urine poured on her face... The dream was very messy and illogical, only warm and flowing.She opened her eyes with a smile on her lips.Her husband was sleeping in the cold moonlight, his eyebrows furrowed with sadness. Qiu Feng caught a glimpse of it, and felt a sharp pain in his heart—she had known for a long time that her husband, who was calm by nature, only occasionally showed sadness and boredom in his dreams.It seems that the decision announced before going to bed is still very heavy for the husband.She didn't disturb her husband, and looked at him steadfastly, with affection, admiration, and some inexplicable uneasiness until dawn broke.Afterwards, when tragedy hit her like a landslide, she had a premonition of the night.
