“…”
Angelina leaned in his arms and never said a word.
Feng De didn't care whether she heard it or not, and said to himself, "Later, I entered the Gong family and became the housekeeper of the second young master of the Gong family. He was a very good young master. He seemed to have a very bad temper, but He never really regarded me as a servant. He would come out to help me when I was being ridiculed."
“…”
"I followed the young master to China again. Are you going to China?" Feng De asked, "I can't find my roots now, but maybe I am Chinese, don't you think so?"
“…”
"China is a beautiful place, much more beautiful than Berg Island." Feng De said, "When I get back, I will take you to China to see it. It is a big place, the people are very warm, there are high mountains, and there are In the very low basin, there are golden fields and seas of colorful flowers. There is also snow. Do you know how beautiful the snow in China is? When it snows, the seaside is the most beautiful, much more beautiful than this."
The vast sea surface is golden and incomparably beautiful.
Su Yaoyao was standing on the beach, and Feng De and Angelina were sitting. The three of them gradually became a miniature.
Feng De talked to himself about everything about China, telling Angelina over and over again that he would take her to see it, "Yao Yao also spent a long time in China. It is really beautiful there. The young master and Xiao Nian are engaged." At that time, the Beibu Gulf was specially arranged, and the sand there is all white. When the time comes, I will take you to the Beibu Gulf to see the snow, okay?"
Feng De's voice was hoarse, gentle and doting, like coaxing the most beautiful lover.
Angelina leaned against him, raising the corners of her lips slightly, looking at the sea without saying a word.
"If the young master knew that I had this idea, he would probably fire me again. He regards it as his and Xiaonian's private territory." Feng De said with a smile, "But it doesn't matter, Xiaonian will speak for me. When she speaks, The young master is at a loss."
"I… "
A thin voice suddenly sounded in his ears. No matter how loud the waves were, it could not cover the voice.
Feng De's voice suddenly paused, and he lowered his eyes and stared blankly at the person in his arms. Angelina still didn't look at him, but looked at the sea, but slowly raised one hand to hold his hand. .
Feng De sat there blankly, his eyes red.
“…”
Su Yaoyao stood there, looking at them in shock, the wind messing up her hair.
"What do you want to say? Speak slowly, don't rush."
Feng De said excitedly, holding Angelina's hand.
Angelina leaned against him, her eyes that had been looking at the sea slowly turned, then met his gaze and looked at him.
"you're old."
She spoke suddenly.
“…”
Feng De looked down at her, his lips suddenly trembled violently, he held her hand with one hand, and hugged her tightly with the other, saying, "Yes, I am old, I have become this old."
He no longer looks like the young boy he once was.
He is old.
Angelina looked at him, her lips moved, but she didn't say the words on her lips, letting him hold her tightly.
"Look, our daughter is already so old, so I can't be the youngest." Feng De said.
Hearing this, Su Yaoyao immediately squatted down beside them, looked at Angelina with red eyes and said, "Mother, I am Yaoyao."
“…”
Angelina was in Feng De's arms, looking at Su Yaoyao with her eyes. She didn't make any sound, she just looked at her like this, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Mother?"
Su Yaoyao raised her hand and held it.
“…”
Angelina still didn't speak, just looked at her. Su Yaoyao's face was a little disappointed. Seeing this, Feng De comforted her, "Take your time, don't be in a hurry, she will recognize you."
"Um."
Su Yaoyao lowered her head in disappointment.
Suddenly, there was a sound of waves, and the water came all the way, attracting the attention of the three of them. Angelina's face moved, and she looked at the sea with one eye.
Su Yaoyao also looked at the sea. At this moment, the afterglow of the sunset was slowly dissipating, and the light of the sea was getting darker and darker, but it was dyed with another color, dark, but gorgeous.
Just like the human heart.
It seems to be beating calmly, but in fact only it itself knows the turbulence inside.
"It turns out that the sea has so many colors." Su Yaoyao squatted there and said, "I have never seen such a beautiful sea. I really want to live by the sea forever."
Hearing this, Feng De smiled happily and said, "If you like it, we will live by the sea as a family in the future."
“…”
Su Yaoyao was silent and did not speak.
Feng De didn't pay too much attention. He just hugged the thin man in his arms and asked gently, "Do you agree? We will live by the sea from now on."
“…”
Angelina looked at the sea quietly, as if she had entered a world of her own. She could not hear anyone's words or react in any way.
Feng De also entered his own world, holding Angelina and sitting on the beach, murmuring, "From now on, I will go to sea every day to catch fish for you and Yaoyao, and then cook a delicious table of dishes."
“…”
"Did you know? I can cook many kinds of dishes now, which you have never tasted before." Feng De said, "I think you will like it, you will definitely like it."
“…”
Angelina leaned in his arms, meek and silent.
The waves come one after another.
The wind blew in spurts.
The light brightens and dims, dims and changes color, like the changing of time, changing rapidly. In the blink of an eye, ten, twenty, and thirty years have passed.
It's passed.
Feng De hugged Angelina tightly, hugging her tighter when the wind blew, so as not to let her get any wind.
"I… "
Angelina suddenly spoke again, and her hand squeezed Feng De's hand harder than Fang Chang's.
Hearing this, Su Yaoyao looked at her excitedly, and Feng De hugged her tighter.
"I want to be a tree by the sea."
Angelina's voice was so small that it disappeared as soon as the wind blew it.
Hearing this, Feng De's body suddenly stiffened, as stiff as a stone, and he sat there blankly. For a long time, Angelina's voice continued to sound intermittently, "Let the sea water nourish my body, I will not move ."
“…”
Feng De sat there motionless, listening to her words blankly. He put the pocket watch aside, and the time on it was ticking, bit by bit.
Angelina looked at the sea, her lips seemed to have regained some color, and she continued to say slowly, "No matter which direction the sea water flows, or where it will go, when he wants to come back, he can find me based on his memory."
“…”
Feng De sat there, listening to the hard but still pale voice, his face wet with tears.
"Even if he can't remember me, he can still find me by the breath on my body."
Angelina said.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Feng De's guilt pressed down like overwhelming darkness, making him unable to breathe. He hugged Angelina tightly, buried his head in her neck, and said sorry over and over again. He apologized and said what he owed.
sorry.
sorry.
He finally knew why she wanted to be a tree by the sea, he finally knew.
The trees on the seaside couldn't walk or move. I could only watch the seawater nourish me and then go away. But no matter how far he went and where he went, she would still be there when he came back.
She wanted to see him again.
She never hated him, she just wanted to see him again, just one more time.
Angelina, he doesn't deserve her, does she understand
"I want to be a tree on the beach..."
Angelina seemed unable to hear Feng De's voice and just repeated this sentence in a low voice, as if this sentence was her life.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I won't leave, I will never leave again, I'm sorry."
Feng De hugged her tightly guiltily and apologized frantically, regardless of whether she could hear it or not.
"I want to be a tree by the sea... I really want it, I really want it."
As she spoke, her beautiful and clear eyes slowly closed, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she leaned against Feng De's body, without breath or soul.
Feng De sat there blankly for a long time, until the sky and earth began to darken, then he lowered his head and slowly opened his palms.
The moment her palm opened, Angelina's hand dropped.
“…”
Feng De sat there silently, looking at her hands with dull eyes, as if he had completely lost his soul.
He just looked, just looked.
"Mother? Mother?"
Su Yaoyao squatted aside and looked at Angelina in shock, reaching out to push her, but Angelina's beautiful eyes never opened again.
At the seaside, Su Yaoyao's body trembled, and tears fell heavily.
Feng De held Angelina in his arms and remained motionless.
…
Shi Xiaonian and Gong Ou were taking a walk under the setting sun. As they walked, they came to a dilapidated stable. The wooden pieces on it were not installed securely, leaving many gaps.
Seeing this stable, Shi Xiaonian's heart sank hard. She walked forward and said, "Ikra said that this is the place where the foster mother was trampled by horses."
There are still some old scratches on the wood chips, where Iqra stood and watched Angelina being tortured.
Now Iqra finally knows that the so-called goddess is just a joke, that she is just a medical vegetative state, and he regrets endlessly. He regrets why he didn't dismantle this door and rescue his sister.
"right here?"
Gong Ou said indifferently, stepped on the weeds next to him with a pair of shoes, and walked to Shi Xiaonian.
Shi Xiaonian stood in front of the stable and looked in through the gap. There was a muddy field inside. There were no horses and no people, and there were only countless weeds left.
But she didn't know why, but she felt inexplicably sad when she looked at this place.
"When I was a child, I always felt that vegetative people have a particularly strong will to survive." Shi Xiaonian said softly, "I think that a vegetative person's body is dead, but her soul still wants to live, wants to live very, very much, and has a lot of understanding of life. Big obsession.” (To be continued)
