Just one glance, I remember her pure and flawless beauty.
Because the girl was so beautiful that she was a little unreal, like a snow girl walking out of the painting. The snow-white long dress was decorated with a very light blue, outlining the graceful figure of the girl. The black and silk-like waterfall drooped to her waist, swaying gentle arcs in the breeze. The white and clear cheeks were slightly red due to the boy's gaze. The girl's facial features were even more delicate, and her delicate lips, as beautiful as rose petals, opened slightly due to surprise, revealing her white and neat teeth. The most moving thing was the straight little nose, the eyes. The eyebrows and eyes were flowing, and tears were mixed with agility and sorrow, which was heartbreaking.
The empty heart seemed to be occupied by her at that moment, arousing the young man's ignorant feelings.
He didn't know that at that moment, he also entered the girl's heart with his tears and melancholy eyes.
Yu Qiuping and the girl both stared at each other in a daze until the red leaf slowly fell to the ground, and a "Sasha" sounded, awakening them.
He lowered his head awkwardly, and even the movements were so consistent.
Both sides looked up again and looked at the tears in each other's eyes.
Perhaps, at this moment, there is no need for any unnecessary words. Because those tears have already explained everything.
We have all been connected with and injured by the red leaves. The people have passed away, and only the people under the trees are left, facing the blood-red maple leaves.
Whether it was tacit understanding or something else, the two of them knelt down at the same time, leaned under the maple tree, and quietly stared at the bright red maple leaves falling on the ground. No one spoke, and no one reached out to pick them up.
Just sit together quietly and cry.
After a long time, a gust of wind blew, sweeping away the red leaf. The two looked at each other, but no one chased after them.
Even if you chase, you can't catch it back.
The two of them took a breath at the same time, as if they had taken off some burden.
"My parents," Yu Qiuping spoke softly, breaking the silence, "I especially like Hongye."
"They met in the maple leaf forest, and my father gave my mother a red leaf pendant as a token of love. Later, the two got married and gave birth to me."
"Since I was a child, I really like red leaves," Yu Qiuping said, and the girl listened quietly, "Everything in the family is decorated with red leaves. I used to be in Ming Dynasty. Every autumn, my parents would take me to Xiangshan in Beijing to see the red leaves. The mountains were all red, so beautiful."
"Now, I will never see my parents again." Yu Qiuping choked and subconsciously touched his chest. The pendant no longer existed. "Seeing Hongye, I suddenly missed them very much."
After Yu Qiuping stopped, the girl spoke naturally.
"I'm sorry to hear your story." Her voice sounded nice, and it was as lively and gentle as the yellow oriole in the early morning.
"My parents also met in the maple forest," the girl smiled. The shallow dimples made her look particularly good when she smiled. "Actually, it's this maple forest."
"Jia Ci is the daughter of a literati. Speaking of which, my grandfather is also from the Ming Dynasty," the girl looked at Yu Qiuping, turned around, and her playful expression was very cute. "Jia Ci was chanting a song under this maple tree. Jia Yan just passed by, and they met the next sentence at once." The girl's face showed an intoxicating look, and the flush on her fair cheeks did not fade away, but became more attractive. She did not apply any rouge. She was born with beauty and was more lively and agile than those noble ladies. The faint fragrance of camellia on her body made Yu Qiuping feel a little fascinated.
"Later, they got together, right in the small wooden house not far away, where I was born." The girl pointed to a wooden house on the hillside in the distance, "That's my home too."
"Because Jiaci is humble and cannot deserve Jiayan, Jiayan cannot marry her back as a matchmaker, so she can only let Jiaci continue to stay in the cabin."
"But Jia Yan is a big man. He is always very busy and has to go around to conduct business and handle official duties. He rarely has the opportunity to visit Jia Ci." The blush on the girl's face gradually faded away, and tears began to fill her eyes again. "Jia Ci taught me to read and write, write, write, lyrics and songs in the morning, and I will come here to wait for Jia Yan in the afternoon. Jia Yan said that if he comes back, he will come under this maple tree." She gently stroked the trunk of the maple tree, "A year in spring, summer, autumn and winter, no matter how wind, frost, rain and snow, Jia Ci will wait under this tree without any impact."
"When I was a child, I was alone in the wooden house, watching Jiaci and Jiayan. I also wanted to see Jiayan too. I have never seen him a few times since I was a child." Tears flashed, and the girl suddenly smiled slightly.
"But I now, Jiayan only comes a few times every year when the maple leaves are red. At that time, the family was happy and happy." She paused, "so I especially like maple leaves. Once the maple leaves are red, a good day of the year will come."
"But Jiaci really miss Jiayan." The girl's tears began to flow again. "Jiayan, who was waiting for her every year, can only accompany her for four or five afternoons, and she can't even stay for dinner."
"Five years ago, Jiaci gradually became ill, and she was very sick. But we couldn't find Jiayan." When the girl said she was sad, tears suddenly flowed down, "but she still had to wait for Jiayan in the maple forest for an afternoon every day, but in the end she couldn't wait for Jiayan's last side."
"When Jiayan arrived, Jiaci had already been buried. Jiayan regretted it very much, so she took me over with the pressure from her family, and was very nice to me." There was no trace of joy on the girl's face, "But I will still resent him, resent Jiayan to abandon Jiaci's cruelty and let Jiaci bear the pain in the relationship alone for so many years. Feelings should not be something that alone bears pressure and pain."
The girl finished telling the story and sighed.
The two of them looked at each other and suddenly smiled for no reason.
They laughed, perhaps because they finally met a confidant.
Looking at the girl's beautiful smiling face, Yu Qiuping suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart.
Next, the two talked about the past when they met Hongye when they were young. The boy and girl they had just met, but they seemed to meet again for old friends who had known each other for many years, and there were endless things to say.
Before we knew it, the sunset was setting, and the maple forest was particularly red against the sunset.
"It's very late, maybe I'm going to lose my companion," the girl owed Yingying. "If you go back late, Jiayan will blame me."
"I'll give it to you," Yu Qiuping suddenly felt a little disappointed and stood up and asked to send the girl a ride. "It's getting late and the mountains are not safe."
"Oh?" the girl smiled mischievously, "Don't underestimate me, I've practiced martial arts."
"Really? How powerful is the lady?" Yu Qiuping smiled, and tightened the muscles on his arm, "Can you beat me?"
"Do you want to hear the truth?" The girl jumped to Yu Qiuping with a clever smile, and blinked while walking backwards, "I think, young master, you must be no match for me."
"Hey," Yu Qiuping couldn't help but be amused by the girl, "Don't call me young master, my name is Yu Qiuping, just call me Ping."
"That's great, Pingjun," the girl saw Yu Qiuping looking at her with some confusion, and added, "Do you want to exchange names? The girl's boudoir name cannot be told casually by men, Pingjun."
"Okay, let's send it here, thank you Pingjun." The girl bowed again, and the long skirt that was slightly lifted was particularly beautiful. "There is my car in front of me, and there are many maids. Pingjun is not good to be seen."
Yu Qiuping suddenly felt that someone had a hammer on his chest, and a wave of loss and helplessness surged into his heart in an instant, but he still tried hard to keep a smile on his lips and replied, "Be careful all the way."
Yes, she is the daughter of a big family. Like those girls sitting in the ox cart, they are all noble daughters of wealthy families.
I am just a Ming immigrant, an ordinary citizen, not even a samurai. At best, how could I be worthy of her brother from Asahitaehyung?
Hey? Why did I think of this? Yu Qiuping was suddenly stunned.
Am I... moved?
Have I fallen in love with her?
The girl's figure was moving further and further away, and was about to disappear behind the big rock.
Yu Qiuping was suddenly stunned.
From now on, I may never see her again? A sense of sadness and loss churned in my heart, and my scalp felt numb.
Why don't you ask where she lives?
However, I can't visit me even after asking. I have a low status like me.
Yu Qiuping's body shook a few times, and he rushed forward to ask several times, but he was reluctant to set off.
The girl's figure had disappeared behind the rocks. Yu Qiuping suddenly felt a corner of his heart collapse, and unprecedented regret and annoyance kept invading him.
When he went home at night, Yu Qiuping, who was in a state of despair, took a few bites of rice and lay motionless on the tatami. He closed his eyes, the girl's exquisite laughter, naughty demeanor, and the beautiful figure kept echoing in his mind. Yu Qiuping tried hard to recall every word and every detail in their afternoon exchange, until late at night, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Did she say, "Young master, you are definitely not my opponent" or "Young master, you can't beat me"?
Did she say, "I'm going back first" or "I'm going to lose my companionship"?
Is the dimples on her cheek so big... or...
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" The personal guard who saw Yu Qiuping not sleeping for a long time asked worriedly, "Did you encounter anything when you go to the mountain in the afternoon?"
"It's okay, nothing." Yu Qiuping shook his head, "You should go to bed early, and look at him, Thompson," Yu Qiuping pointed to Charlie who was snoring, "I've been asleep long ago."
"As for orders, sir."
Yes, what's wrong with me.
The doves are singing in the river island. A beautiful lady is a gentleman.
Yu Qiuping's eyes again appeared before his first meeting, the girl's face was so beautiful.
A beautiful lady, she is eager to find it. She is unable to find it, and she is eager to sleep and thinks about it. She is leisurely and tossing and turning.
Her empty heart was occupied by her for a moment.
Those who steal the hooks steal, and those who steal the country are princes.
The treacherous person, the girl who doesn't even know the name, the girl who is also sad because of the red leaves, the girl who has the same unfortunate experience as himself, the girl who smiles gracefully and charms the whole country.
She stole Yu Qiuping's heart and occupied it for a lifetime since then.
