Bai Fumei in the 70’s

He Songbai washed his hands after finishing a few dishes and told them to go out for dinner.

There was a slight smile on the corner of his lips, and the clear tap water was flowing down and pouring out of his fingertips, which was very beautiful.His body has a kind of unrelenting elegance that has settled down over the years, faded the youthfulness of the young people, and glowed with the maturity and stability of the middle-aged people.

Even Sister He felt that her little brother was charming, considerate and gentleman at the moment.But she looked at Zhao Lanxiang in front of her eyes. Her eyes did not fall on him, and she had not recovered from her surprise.

Sister He's eyes flashed, and she smiled at He Songbai narrowly.

Zhao Lanxiang was shocked by He Songbai's extraordinary skills. The dishes he made were so delicate that she couldn't bear to eat them.As a man, having such a skill can calm people.

But she knew that Sister He's younger brother was actually of extraordinary origin. After all, the streets behind the "Lanxiang" shop were all "Xiangbai" industries.

"Start, let's eat." Sister He gestured excitedly.

Half of the six big dishes on the dinner table were from He Songbai, and the other half were from Zhao Lanxiang.Sister He tasted the delicacies on the table, her eyes narrowed with satisfaction, and the undisguised joyful light leaked in her eyes.

Sister He spent most of her life under the conditions of starvation and cold. The biggest hobby of her life is food. When she tastes delicious food, her face will unconsciously reveal a happy light.This makes her happier than giving her a lot of money.

She filled the two people with drinks and made a conversation.He Songbai interpreted it deliberately: "Cheers, I wish business prosperity."

He looked at the gesture of the elder sister's gestures, paused, and continued gently: "Lanxiang, we hope you are happy and smooth."

He said softly: "Start a new life and let yourself go."

He secretly added this sentence in the name of his elder sister.After talking, He Songbai gazed at Zhao Lanxiang gently, and the cold camouflage of the pupil became warm.

His voice seemed to be warm, calm and warm, and he passed Zhao Lanxiang's ears all the way from the air,

She listened to "let me go", her nose was sour, and her tears almost fell.She still smiled on the face, but she shed tears in her heart.

The three glasses touched lightly, pushing the atmosphere to the highest point.Zhao Lanxiang hasn't had such a lively meal for a long time. Although he hasn't known them for a long time, it seems that they have been friends for many years.

He Songbai sipped the liquor quietly and looked away.

Zhao Lanxiang was eating hot rice, and the mist of rice almost enchanted her eyes.

How easy it sounds to let go of yourself, but Zhao Lanxiang can't do it, she has been living in the shadows.How many midnight dreams will come back, she will dream of Jie Jie, and she will secretly fall off in the eyes that hold her teeth firmly during the day.

She missed him.She has blamed herself for losing her day.

In the days after the divorce, she not only opened her own shop, but also revitalized the shop, her business was flourishing.It will not be a problem to support yourself in the future.It is more than enough to use it to provide for the elderly.But Zhao Lanxiang's heart is still gray.

She tried to make herself busy, making her body extremely exhausted, and had no free time to hurt Qiu and Sorrow.

The shop was proofed, the clerk left early after get off work, and she turned on the lamp to make clothes under the sewing machine, and came back at the earliest and the latest every day.

When she heard He Songbai's lightly "let me go" and stimulated the bitterness of the drink to her heart, she laughed and said: "I go to the bathroom, you continue to eat."

He Songbai saw the sad emotion in her eyes, and there was an impulse in her heart, wishing to hug her and comfort her as before.

But he didn't go. He lit a cigarette by the window of the hall and smoked slowly. He vaguely heard the small cry from the toilet.He cried because of this, his brows closed, and he just wanted to smoke.

Sister He still had a hearty and delicious meal, and He Songbai finished a cigarette and walked towards the bathroom.

He pushed open the door of the bathroom and saw Zhao Lanxiang turning around in a panic to wipe his tears.

There was a little tear in the light.

He Songbai generously handed a handkerchief in the past and said warmly: "Everything will pass."

Her tears reminded him of that year, she came to his side with a warm body, watching him struggling to humble life, is she also as distressed as he is at the moment.

In those days when the burden of life was so overwhelming that she couldn't breathe, she couldn't see a glimmer of hope.Over and over again, patiently and meticulously, he was encouraged to walk from the trough to the peak.

Zhao Lanxiang raised his head to see the white veil in front of him, seeing the gentle and calm comfort on his face, tears shed.

She kept shaking her head, embarrassed and sad to let He Songbai go out for dinner.

He Songbai was not moving.

...

Sister He, who was big in heart, ate and found that her brother was gone, and Zhao Lanxiang was gone.

Through the half-covered door, she only saw her brother half crouched on the ground, her waist leaning forward slightly, her hand as if supporting the woman's face.So that he only exposed a handsome jaw.

His voice was deep and hoarse, blending gentleness that had never been before.Even if she couldn't see, she could guess that his eyes at the moment should be unbelievably soft.

He said softly: "If life deceives you, don't be sad, don't be anxious, you need to be calm in the melancholy days... everything is instantaneous, everything will pass..."

Sister He heard his shallow voice, also heard the depressed cry of Zhao Lanxiang, and his helpless sigh, she was very surprised.She had never seen him so gentle.

The tenderness is heart-warming, down-to-earth, and heartbreaking.

Sister He was both sad, sad, happy, and happy. Complex emotions poured into her heart. She took it lightly, pretending that she had not seen her turn around and continued to eat.

She was really happy and worried about eating this meal. Happy was happy for her brother, because he finally got rid of it.Worry is for the two of them, He Songbai and Zhao Lanxiang have another one, sadness is more than joy.

After the two sisters finished eating, they walked down from the tube house and got into the car. Sister He sighed and said sadly with her brother, "She is not suitable for you."

He Songbai's face was sullen, and he was not in a good mood at the moment, because he saw Zhao Lanxiang's sad look, and his heart was so bitter and astringent.

In addition to his distress, he left it to Zhao Lanxiang in this life.He saw her painful tears, and he wanted to go back in time so that he could return to her seventeen years old.

He must not make her feel so wronged.

He Songbai saw the elder sister's gesture, shook her head, and said firmly: "There is no one more suitable for me than her."

"I just want her."

Sister He's heart was somber, she shook her head hard, and gestured with concern: "But, you are too hard."

She thought about it, remembering his bitterness for many years and also having tears, and the tears were about to fall.

She seemed to understand that she had done something wrong. She should not support him in pursuing Zhao Lanxiang. He should have a warmer woman to care for him and take care of him.It's not that it's bothersome and sad to talk about feelings like now.

Sister He's heart filled with endless sourness, I feel very sorry for this younger brother.

He had never enjoyed the blessings since he was a child, and he suffered and suffered with them.Finally, she was a little bit bigger and had a good time, but she was so tired that she went to jail and the best time of her life was limping there.

After coming out of the prison, he had to assume the responsibilities of the whole family.Now that the conditions are better and his family is wealthy, he is planted again in the pit of Zhao Lanxiang.

Sister He once felt that she must be the brother's disaster.Otherwise, how could it make him suffer more and more time and again.

She didn't expect him to like Zhao Lanxiang so much, with deep affection.And Zhao Lanxiang is far from being as sunny and strong as she showed.

She was so distressed that her tears fell, and she persuaded her brother, "She, no, not so easy, accept you."

He Songbai grabbed the elder sister's hand and said comfortably: "Don't worry, she will always accept it."

"I have waited for so many years, I am not in a hurry."

"It's you, I'm in a hurry. When do you think about the big things in life?"

Sister He cried and laughed. She still talked about the subject and insisted on saying, "Give up."

He Songbai shook his head, "If you give up, what's the point of my life?"

"I am here for her. We are destined to be a husband and wife. This is something that cannot be changed. She is very sad now and it is difficult to accept me. One year, two years and three years... What does it matter if ten or eight years The people around me are me. I'm with her. It doesn't matter if I get married or not."

"In the future, you can help her when you are free. She is your brother and sister and our family."

Sister He heard tears flowing through her eyes and felt terribly distressed.

She was so distressed that she kept reading "My poor Bo Ge", and buried her head in her knees, her heart was hot, touched and sad.

"I'm so happy for her and sad for you."

He Songbai gave her elder sister a sense of security and couldn't help laughing. "What's wrong with me?"

Sister He said: "You make me feel most hurt."

"Brother Bo, it was so hard."

He Songbai didn't feel this way. He looked up at Zhao Lanxiang's window sill and saw the figure faintly, but he might have blurred vision and regarded the shadow of the potted plant as hers.His eyesight was ruined in prison. He was malnourished for a long time and thought hard to read, and his eyes were ruined.

He glanced at the darkening night, and said easily:

"Probably because my life was too smooth, so I came here to pay off the debt."

"I don't feel bitter, but rather satisfied. It's you, I don't know that the burden on your heart is so heavy. Let go of your burden."

"This allows me to live a little faster."

I have had the happiness and tasted the best taste. He Songbai has no regrets in his life. If there is, it is that life is too short. Many things I want to do are too late to do. I want to go. , Many people want to accompany.But fortunately he has this life in addition to his last life, he feels very satisfied.

"What's wrong with me? My life has stabilized and my economy is more affluent. Apart from working overtime occasionally, I haven't caught up with my wife or other troubles."

He started the car and left the tube house with a smoky smoke.He said to his elder sister with a smile: "I will work harder and marry her earlier, so that our family will be more lively."
