Through thousands of years, life after life, just for you

Chapter 38

【When I was young, I met you】

March.It rained heavily for several days.In the southern area, floods struck, thousands of people died, and the living fled everywhere.Chang'an, Cherish Garden.

"Ms. Lou, please give me more." A middle-aged woman dressed in burlap with disheveled hair and some dirt on her face looked at the girl in yellow beside her, and then bent down again. , with both knees on the ground, pleading bitterly, looking up at the old bustard who was leaning on a high wooden chair and drinking tea.

The old bustard rolled her eyes at the middle-aged woman, took a sip of tea, and flicked the tea powder off the side of the cup with her slender fingers, with a hypocritical smile on her face, "Business is not easy these days, I think you are fleeing famine." The disaster victims who came here, you are so pitiful that you are allowed 20 taels of silver."

"What's more, this girl is just a doll now, and whether she will earn or lose in the future, I don't know if she will be successful."

When the middle-aged woman wanted to talk about it, the bustard's smile grew stronger, "It's up to 20 taels, it's not negotiable, it's up to you to decide."

The woman in sackcloth bit her white and chapped lips, picked up the banknotes scattered on the ground and held them tightly in her hands, her body visibly trembled a few times, "Ms. Lou, then, I hope you will treat this child kindly. , I will definitely come to redeem her back."

She stroked the head of the girl in yellow and held her tightly in her arms, as if the girl would disappear if she let go.She closed her eyes, with a sad look on her brows, her expression was bleak, the wounds on her festered fingers became more and more red, almost bleeding.

It hurts, it hurts, it hurts.The commoner woman shouted in her heart.Suddenly, she abruptly let go of the girl in yellow, pushed the girl hard, and left without looking back, striding like flying.

"Mother, mother, don't leave me behind." The girl burst into tears, she wanted to go forward to chase the commoner woman, but unexpectedly, after a few steps, she was tripped to the ground by the bustard.A piercing pain forced the girl to stop.

"Mother, you, why did you abandon me? I hate you, I hate you." The girl's voice floated into the air along with the rain...

"Go and wash those dishes."

"Take these clothes to dry, and boil water after drying."

"Clean the yard well."

"..."

The old bustard's voice kept ringing in the girl's ears, as if urging her to die, one sentence after another, not allowing her to rest for a moment.Finally, exhausted and overwhelmed, she fell to the courtyard gate.

"Damn girl, how dare you be lazy." After an unknown amount of time, the old bustard's curse sounded, followed by a burst of pain from being whipped.

A series of wounds opened on the girl's smooth skin. "Stop!" At that time, the 15-year-old Shui Wuying who happened to pass by stopped him with words that were not childish at all.

"My lord, save me, save me." The girl crawled to Shui Wuying's side, grabbed a corner of his clothes, and pleaded helplessly.After a few pleadings, the girl fainted again.

【Memories of childhood, where can I find them now】

"Are you awake?" Seeing the girl on the bed who opened her eyes, Shui Wuying asked in relief.

"Huh?" The girl looked around at everything, it was so strange, she seemed to understand something in an instant, "Thank you, sir, for saving me."

"You're welcome, you are injured, you should take a good rest." Shui Wuying pulled off the quilt a few times, and covered the girl well.

"Is this your home?" the girl asked tentatively.

"No, this is just another garden of our Shui family called Jinyun Garden. I think you are also homeless, so you can live here from now on," Shui Wuying said quietly.

"Then I live in your house, will your parents not mind?"

"They won't mind." Shui Wuying smiled slightly, "By the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Yi Yu, Zhong Ling Yi Yu." The girl blinked cutely.

Raving?What is this name.Shui Wuying was a little dazed, "You will be called Nuo Yan from now on, right? It's a good name."

"Thank you, son, for giving me the name."

"Well, then you will live here from now on, and I will come to see you when I am free."

That year, Noyan was 12 years old.From then on, Shui Wuying visited her every day.The peach blossoms in Jinyun Garden are as brilliant as clouds and clouds.

"You come here to see me every day and don't do your job properly. Aren't you afraid that your parents will blame you?" Nuo Yan once asked him like this.

"They don't care about me." Shui Wuying replied calmly.

"You, this is a dandy." Nuo Yan teased him.

"Yan'er, I just like playing with you!" The word "like" was dragged very long by Shui Wuying, and drifted into her ears along the wind.

On Yan's face, happiness bloomed.

They also often lay under the peach tree in Jinyun Garden to watch the flowers bloom and fall together, and the clouds roll and the clouds relax.

Childhood is always so beautiful.

If they can always be as simple and carefree as they were when they were young, I believe they will always be happy.But, just as Shui Wuying said, people always have to grow up, once they grow up, those bright, simple, and beautiful past will pass away and never return.

Until I missed it, and when I suddenly recalled those fleeting years one day later, what remained was nothing but sadness.

At that time, it was only normal.In retrospect, it is clearly just some simple bits and pieces of ordinaryness and happiness when I was young, but now it is only a memory, and I can no longer find it.
