"How could it be meaningless? Just now, when we were making dumplings with grandma Chen in chenjiatun, we were still talking about you. Grandma Chen was worried that you would never find a good husband. Sister an advised grandma Chen that you were not old. I was also making an idea. I thought that after years, I would let you go to the family soldiers in the house to pick out. Maybe you could see the right thing. "Here, Meiya smiled shallowly, and at the same time, she followed Gu Qingtong“ You see, there are so many people reading that you think you are worried about you. How can you live without meaning? "
Gu Qingtong shook his head gently and said nothing more.
"Miss Gu, you saw Mingwei for the first time. What do you think of him?" After a pause, Meiya suddenly asked. It seemed that she knew Gu Qingtong could not answer, and she didn't wait much. Then she said to herself, "I'm sure he's very old, and he's a cripple who can't even walk well. He's very pitiful, isn't he?"
Gu Qingtong nodded. When she saw Zhong Mingwei for the first time, she was in the Jixian library. At that time, Zhong Mingwei was still crippled. He had to support the wall to limp forward slowly. At that time, Zhong Mingwei and Meiya were still in a stalemate. They couldn't eat well or sleep well for many days. They were all thin and emaciated. They had long beards. At first glance, they looked forty years old.
"Do you know what Zhong Mingwei looked like when I first saw him in Ninggu tower?" Meiya continued, leaning against the wall and looking up slightly. She thought of the man she saw when she opened the door on the second morning of May last year. "I opened the door and the smell of rotting and shit was all over the room. I've never heard that bad smell before, but he didn't know how long he had been suffering in that room. He was paralyzed at that time Don't talk about limping. He can't even move his fingers, so he lies in a bed that you can't imagine. When I went in, I thought He's a dead man, "said Meiya, taking a long breath and continuing," in fact, it's almost the same as death. Once Fengzi and Longsun are imprisoned, they're paralyzed and put in ningguta. They dare to bully him. At that time, he thought it would be a relief to die. "
"But he has survived the worst of his life. Now he is more confident and calm than before," said Meiya, looking at Gu Qingtong with her head askew, and smiling slightly. "Miss Gu, let me tell you a secret. I like Zhong Mingwei for many years, but I prefer to stand up from adversity than the former high Prince Donggong Even though his legs are not very sharp, he is really charming and charming now. I think I can like him for a lifetime, and maybe I will like him in the next life. "
"That's his life. I met you." Gu Qingtong said softly.
"Yes, he's a good man, but are you a bad man? Is that the one who gave his life? " "You have so many family members to care about. Isn't that good luck? You always know what kind of life you want to live, so you are never willing to make do with it. You are always trying to be aggressive. Who has the courage like you? Miss Gu, you have your pattern and your future. I'm sorry to say that this is not enough to trip you. "
Gu Qingtong did not speak, but his pale lips trembled gently.
"Come, half of you, half of me." Meiya breaks the sesame candy into two parts and hands it to Gu Qingtong.
