The vast Qiantang River flows endlessly day and night around Niujia Village in Lin'an Prefecture, and while flowing eastward into the sea, it also irrigates the hopes of farmers along the coast who make a living by farming. ! There are dozens of cypress trees in a row along the river, their leaves are as red as fire. It is September. The weeds in front of and behind the village have just begun to turn yellow, and the setting sun adds a bit of desolation. I still remember the dusk and sunset, the setting sun on the ancient road, and the softness of my heart that was as low as dust, blooming secretly in the watering of memories. Wan Yankang was sitting under two big pine trees, with his sleeves rolled up halfway and the hem of his shirt tucked into his belt, looking like he was working in the fields. This is the truth. He has just returned from watering the fields. He has been working in the Qiantang River and the fields for a whole day. The entire vegetable field now looks like it is full of water. He didn¡¯t want to go back, so Wanyankang stayed under the pine trees at the head of the village and looked at the setting sun among the cypress trees, watching the crows returning to their nests and playing among the trees. Naturally, he remembered that day when he led a donkey on the ancient road. The smile on Juan's beautiful face bloomed like a begonia flower. That alluring smile made the softness in his heart drop into the dust. That could be considered first love, Wan Yanhong raised a self-deprecating smile on his lips. When he was a young prince, he had concubines, but there was only one who could really tempt him. A chance encounter, a smile. Love sometimes comes so suddenly, but not recklessly. After returning from Jiaxing, in order not to let Yang Tiexin and his wife worry, Wanyankang stayed and devoted himself to being a Han farm boy, carrying water, farming, watching the setting sun, and watching the long river. Sigh that time flies by. Wanyankang actually doesn¡¯t have much affection for Yang Tiexin. It would be the same for other people. Thinking of this, Wanyankang couldn't help but think of Yue Ziran. Ever since that conversation at the Dongting Lake Inn, he had felt that they were the same kind of person, the same person who one day suddenly told you that he was your biological father. Because when he and Yue Ziran talked about Qiu Qianren's revenge for killing his father at Tiezhang Peak, Yue Ziran avoided the words "parents" if possible. He is a Han, but he has been the young prince of the Kingdom of Jin for eighteen years, and now he is a Han again. After living in Niujia Village for a few days, Wanyankang occasionally came up with this idea in his spare time and felt ridiculous, and then a little bitter. He somewhat hated Bao Xiruo, Wanyan Honglie, Yang Tiexin and others. The concepts and beliefs established over eighteen years collapsed overnight, and he was even tied to the Qiantang River by family ties, watching others create legends, and listening to others become the boastful protagonists in storybooks. This feeling was not very good. Occasionally, he would go to a wine shop to drink, and he would listen to the guests and waiters in the wine shop expressing their delight at the Jin's current fate, and yelling at the Jin's past cruelty. When he was at home, Yang Tiexin kept talking to him about the humiliation of Jingkang and all the shortcomings of the Jin people. What Wan Yankang actually didn¡¯t want to hear was that he had been the young prince of the Jin Dynasty for eighteen years. How could we not know the oppression of the Han people by the Jin people? I just didn¡¯t want Bao Xiruo to notice, so I just forced a smile. However, Wan Yankang also had some feelings. He found that people from different classes actually have different perspectives. For ordinary people, cruelty is worthy of condemnation, but for the education he received for eighteen years, the law of the jungle is nothing more than the strong. . The white clouds are long and the sunset is all over the sky. Wanyankang knew that this should not be his life. Goshawks are destined to soar in the sky, and Wanyankang knows that he is one of them. It¡¯s just a stopgap measure now. Yang Tiexin left the village, and after seeing Wanyankang staying alone under the pine tree, he went back with confidence. Bao Xiruo is now too sick to get out of bed. Although Wanyankang's return has made her feel better, her body has collapsed after all, and she doesn't have much time left. Listening to Yang Tiexin's return in bed, she coughed a few times and asked, "Where is Kang'er?" She asked many times a day, fearing that Wanyan Kang would go again. "We're resting at the end of the village." Yang Tiexin entered the house, found a short stool to sit on, and said, "I've cooked the porridge. You can drink it while it's hot when it gets colder." Bao Xi smiled weakly and said weakly: "You too, how can you drink it while it's hot when it's cold?" Yang Tiexin smiled. He put the porridge on the bedside, then sat down and repaired the rusty iron plowshare in his hand. "Some time ago, Kang'er specifically asked me about Nian Ci." Bao Xiruo sat up and said. "Nianci's parents got the plague. She has been an orphan since she was a child. She has depended on me and lived in the world. She is a simple child. Is there anything to ask about." Yang Tiexin's work is not stopping. Bao Xiruo obviously didn't mean this. She paused, and after thinking about it, she said, "Zhi Zi Mo Ruo Mu, I can tell that he likes Nian Ci." Yang Tiexin stopped.He made a movement, paused, and said, "I guess it's wrong. How could Kang'er fall in love with Nianci?" He still remembered Wanyankang's superior appearance when he was teasing Mu Nianci during the martial arts competition. After a long while, Bao Xiruo took a sip of porridge and said leisurely: "He is your son, a child from a poor family, what is there to look down on?" Yang Tiexin smiled bitterly in his heart, he could feel it, There was a huge gap between him and Wan Yankang. It was just that Bao Xiruo was seriously ill and they didn't show it. Before the door was closed, a strong gust of wind suddenly blew and the curtains rolled. Afraid that she would catch cold, Yang Tiexin stood up and closed the door. ¡®Autumn is coming to an end and winter is coming. "Bao Xiruo said weakly, "It has been several years since I saw the four seasons in Niujia Village. Fortunately, I only have one winter left this year. " Yang Tiexin didn't answer. The air was filled with vague sadness. "But it doesn't matter whether you look or not. "When Bao Xiruo said this, Yang Tiexin raised his head and interrupted her, signaling her to stop talking nonsense. But Bao Xiruo smiled miserably and said, "It was winter that year. If I hadn't done this in vain, I'm afraid our Guo and Yang families would have done well. Yes, I'm sorry for you. " Yang Tiexin put down her work, sat on the bedside, held her hand and said, "Stop saying frustrating words. Everything was fate back then, and we couldn't escape it. " "Buddha often said that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, but now he is wrong. Bao Xiruo held Yang Tiexin's hand and said lightly: "I just hope you don't blame me." " "how come. Yang Tiexin forced a smile and comforted him: "Don't think about useless things. Taking good care of your body as early as possible is the truth." " Bao Xiruo shook his head and said: "I know my own body. To be honest, I used to blame you. I blamed you for leaving our mother and son to save Sister Guo. Now I think the fault is all mine. In the end, the fault was You have endured this, and I feel guilty. At this point, tears filled her eyes: "It doesn't matter if I die now, I am free." " Yang Tiexin wants to comfort, but doesn't know what to say. "However, I still have an unfulfilled wish. Bao Xiruo said: "That's Kang'er. He's back now, but I know his heart is not here." " Yang Tiexin was silent. " How about finding him the girl he likes and tying him to your side. Bao Xiruo finally revealed his purpose: "This way Kang'er won't leave, you won't be lonely, and I won't have any regrets when I leave." " Yang Tiexin hesitated and shook his head after a moment.
