Kawakami Mizuki

Yi Linchuan once asked Lin Chuyi: "Since you brought water and electricity to the mountain, what's the difference from living in the city? Why do you have to live on the mountain?"

Lin Chuyi's face was unpredictable: "Because the beauty of mountains and rivers is gathered here, and the essence of heaven and earth is gathered here..."

Yi Linchuan: ...

Anyway, the two of them stayed here.

It wasn't until the two of them lived together that Yi Linchuan knew that the smell of medicine on Lin Chuyi's body was the result of boiling two bowls of medicine every day.It was not until the two of them lived together that they knew how bad Lin Chuyi's physical condition was.

Drowsiness, chills, these symptoms became more obvious day after day, Yi Linchuan asked her, but she always vaguely seemed to care about it, and often forgot to cook and drink medicine.Most of the time, she would sit lazily on the balcony, letting the cold wind blow by, and let the drizzle fall on her cheeks and hair.

And Yi Linchuan always reminded her to take medicine on time and not to do these things. After nagging for a long time, even Lin Chuyi got bored and laughed at him like a little old man.

"Actually, I've done all the things I should do, so I don't have to wait for the day and night." When Lin Chuyi said this, he was leaning on the bench, with a faint smile in his eyes, and his eyes fell on the few people outside the window. On a withered crabapple.

Yi Linchuan turned around and left.

Lin Chuyi closed her eyes, and then listened to that drama, which was another drunken spring of interpretation.

Unexpectedly, with such a stubborn temper, Yi Linchuan prepared the medicine himself and brought it to her.

Lin Chuyi took a look at his height, barely reaching the height of the stove, and immediately thought of him leaning on the bench, carefully stirring the spoon, so she could only helplessly say, "I am really incompetent as a parent."

Lin Chuyi touched his head: "The kitchen is too dangerous for you now, if I forget in the future, just remind me, don't do it yourself, you know?"

Yi Linchuan looked at her with distrust.

Lin Chuyi couldn't laugh or cry.

But from then on, Lin Chuyi really cooked and drank the medicine on time, and never let Yi Linchuan worry about it.The bitter and astringent smell of traditional Chinese medicine boiled all year round has infected the whole family with this smell, and Yi Linchuan is no exception.But it didn't smell bad, on the contrary, it made him feel very at ease.Every time I come back from school, when walking slowly on the mountain trails, I smell a vague smell of medicine mixed with the fragrance of green grass at the tip of my nose, and my heart gradually settles down, feeling that the hustle and bustle is far away for a while.

Because I live far away, it takes a long time to go to and from school every day, and I have to walk a long way.

Lin Chuyi once asked him if he wanted to live in the urban area during school days and move back after vacation, but Yi Linchuan refused.

Therefore, he got up very early every day, got up when it was still misty, left home in the faint morning light, and came back dressed in the blood of the setting sun when the sun was setting.

Pushing open the door, the most common scene is Lin Chuyi curled up in the rocking chair, her long hair hanging down on the ground, winding and stretching all over the floor.But occasionally, she would stand quietly in front of the window sill, and when she heard the door open, she would turn her head and smile, calling him Linchuan softly.

If it can be like this for a lifetime, it's not bad.

But Lin Chuyi and their log cabin seemed to be isolated from time.The traces of time have been continuously verified on Yi Linchuan.His stature is getting taller day by day, and his temperament has become more restrained.

In the morning, he came to school alone; after school, he went home alone.Although he has made one or two friends, it made him realize more clearly: the so-called friends are for taking advantage of.As long as you are in the name of a friend, the other party can ask you to do everything for him unscrupulously: help him on duty, let him go to the court alone to have a hot fight with his partners; help him cheat in exams, and let you alone Punishment after being discovered; borrowing his homework to copy, and then unknowingly, helping him to copy homework has become an obligation.Although this cognition was understood to be a fallacy a long time later, at that time it had become a habit not to like to be close to others.

I like to be alone more and more.

I like to wrap myself up layer by layer, so that no one else can get in, nor can I get out. I am almost obsessively in love with this sense of security.

He knew he was going astray, but he didn't want to change it.And he knew that Lin Chuyi had gone farther and earlier than him on this sideways road.

He thought he would go on like this until he met Ye Ming.

This stupid idiot.

As if printed from a mold, he is a good student who is both good in character and academics, a clean and well-behaved student, so well-organized that he can see through the smooth future of his life.

He and Ye Ming were not on the same road at all.Ye Ming seems to be ignorant of such a reality that can be easily seen clearly, he just clings to him wholeheartedly and treats him well without asking for anything in return, but he doesn't know that he will eventually become the chief culprit who has bent Ye Ming's life.

He tried to stay away from Ye Ming, but ended in failure.

Since you forced it, you can't blame me.Yi Linchuan thought viciously.

That was the first time he felt a sense of guilt, yet faintly, he felt infinite joy.

One day, Lin Chuyi suddenly asked him: "Why are you so happy recently? Did something good happen?"

Yi Linchuan was startled, and said, "No."

Nothing surprising, just the same as usual, having breakfast with Ye Ming, reciting words together, doing homework together, walking out of the campus after school and separating at a crossroad...

Lin Chuyi looked at him thoughtfully, but smiled and said nothing.

Later, Ye Ming was about to go abroad, and at the farewell banquet that day, Yi Linchuan quietly slipped out of the crowd as usual, leaned against a tree, and watched the dim yellow sky gradually being infiltrated by dark blue until a crescent moon appeared on the horizon Ye Ming finally found him and asked him if he would come back together in the future.

Ye Ming.

Ye Ming.

In the eyes of others, Ye Ming is probably a clean, gentle, polite and good student with a good family background, who is liked everywhere; but in his eyes, Ye Ming is just an honest and somewhat stupid fool. Mu Mu, although he always felt that Ye Ming's concern from time to time was a bit long-winded, but he couldn't help but feel that it was ironic, like a touch of warm sunshine in winter.

Yi Linchuan looked at Ye Ming.Ye Ming was still talking, but he couldn't listen at all.

"Ye Ming." Yi Linchuan called out in a low voice.

"Huh?" Ye Ming turned to look at him with some doubts.

In the next moment, Ye Ming's slender hand was in front of his eyes, and he couldn't feel anything except the slightly cool temperature of his palm.Then the same cool touch fell on his lips lightly.

Touch and go.

Withdrawing his hand, as if nothing had happened, what fell into Ye Ming's eyes was still the previous picture - the sky so deep that it was almost an abyss, the lights falling into the misty smoke and dust, and the thin figure of the young man beside him .

Yi Linchuan's eyes fell on the distance as if nothing had happened.

"Linchuan?" Ye Ming asked in a daze at first, then seemed to realize something, and said in surprise: "... Linchuan?"

And Yi Linchuan didn't even look at him, just said: "Go home."

Even the tone of voice was always loose, only a slight tremor in his voice revealed his uneasiness.

Ye Ming grabbed his hand all of a sudden, and when the two looked at each other, they couldn't help but blushed slightly.

Ye Ming leaned over and kissed her.

The lips of the two were pressed together, and even the kiss was innocent, so innocent that it was a little silly.

But it is so beautiful that people can't bear to remember it.

After confirming the relationship, the relationship between the two can be described as sweet and bubbling.Even the distance between the mountains and rivers could not stop the love from the two through the phone.

At that time, domestic and foreign communication had just been established, and the two children could not communicate frequently.The most common way of getting along is that Ye Ming is on the other side talking about how he should pay attention to his health, don't be greedy for cold when it's hot, dress more when it's cold, goodgoodstudy, daydayup.Then Lin Chuyi leaned on the bench in the living room, looking at the embarrassed Yi Linchuan with a half-smile.

Every time at this time, Yi Linchuan always had the urge to reach into the phone and call him.

"Linchuan Linchuan, when did you start liking me ah heh heh..."

"..."

"Linchuan Linchuan, did you fail the English exam again?"

"..."

"Linchuan Linchuan, your voice is really nice, can you say a few more words?"

"..."

"Linchuan Linchuan, I like you."

"...idiot, me too."
