In the purple of the evening, the red smell of the flames gradually faded, and the afterglow of the setting sun passed through the forest and reflected into my eyes. "Don't say that the sunset is still full of sunshine." The distant poem describing the sunset actually traveled through thousands of years of time and space, accompanied by the curling smoke towards the evening, and jumped into my mind. Such a poem filled with passion accidentally touched the emotional string in my heart.

Smoke in cooking is the only representative of home.

Aqian was wearing an apron and was busy in the kitchen, and ordered: "Lin Qiuyu, can you break the celery open first and then wash it?"

"Lin Qiuyu, have you washed the lotus roots well? There is mud on it!"

"You go and see if Zhuzi is back. When he comes back, he will come over and have a meal."

"Lin Qiuyu..."

Aqin was nagging, seeing my erotic hands, I guess she would be so angry that she would rush up and kick me. Aunt Liu saw me sweating and smiled secretly. When I asked her what she laughed, she said she would let me do it well. I have never felt this way before, and I have never felt that all my heart was full of happiness, and I was even afraid of this sudden happiness because it was too happy and too unreal.

After I finished the dishes, Aqin looked at it and nodded, "Forget it, it's barely clean."

"It's only a barely force, my hands are soaked white after washing."

Aqin rolled his eyes and said, "You have the nerve to say it?"

There was a sizzling sound in the kitchen, and then Aqin came up with a steaming braised pork ribs. Tonight there were seven dishes and one soup, which was full of color, fragrance and taste, which made people's index fingers tremble.

Zhuzi and I were so greedy that we picked up the chopsticks and picked up one. We didn't care what Aqin and Aunt Liu looked at us, and then we ate it first. Zhuzi was full of oil and smiled and said, "Well, it tastes delicious, better than my mother's skills."

"Go away, ungrateful wolf, I won't make it for you in the future." Aunt Liu picked up the chopsticks and knocked it on the head of the pillar twice.

Aqin clapped his hands and sat down, tied the hair around his ears, wiped the sweat from his nose with the back of his hand, and smiled and said, "How about Aunt Liu, my skills are not bad, right?"

"Is that need to be said?"

The meal was warm, especially the mood was good, and the beauty was delicious, especially Aunt Liu brought out a jar of peach blossom wine again. The most fragrant wine and the most beautiful person, men just longed for these two points. My mood at that time was that if I could spend my whole life with Aqin like this, I would definitely not exchange my daughter.

The memories of what happened next are a bit broken.

I only remember that Aqin was very happy. After drinking a lot of wine, we were both dizzy in the end. She looked charming and said to me: "Lin Qiuyu, do you like me..."

I smiled and muttered, "Or what, otherwise, or I..."

As soon as I saw darkness, I lost consciousness, and I didn’t know if I had said that in the end.

In the morning, I felt a little headache. I opened my eyes and smelled of alcohol all over my body. What was strange was that there was a faint smell of women around me. I suddenly felt energetic, "No, did you sleep with Aqin last night?"

I twisted my neck little by little and found a pillow next to me. My heart was thumping, but when I turned my head completely, the pillow was empty and there was no one at all.

I rushed downstairs and asked with some trembling questions: "Aqian, did you sleep with me last night?"

Aqin's face turned slightly red, he spat at me and said, "Strange hooligan, who is sleeping in the same bed with you? Quickly change the quilt. It's all the smell of alcohol, it's so smelly!"

"That...that pillow?"

"That was what I asked you to get up and smash you in the morning. I slept like a dead pig, and I couldn't wake up no matter how hard I hit it."

After hearing what she said, I felt at ease and sad.

How great it would be if the raw rice was cooked.

Last night, Lao Gou was on duty and I drove away his car. Today I had to take over half an hour in advance.

However, I was no longer interested in staying in the office. The Forestry Bureau’s transfer letter has arrived and I will go to the post in a few days. Now I should hurry up and pack up my things and enhance my relationship with Lao Gou. To be honest, Lao Gou is my first friend in Shannan County. The friendship between gentlemen is as calm as water. I will show my fate with him later.

When I first came to Shannan, I was alone. Now I think about it, many things can only be described as the cold and cold world.

In the afternoon, I gradually climbed up to the window frame. The mottled projection warmed every corner and nurtured thoughts. Many memories were stranded in my heart, skimming the vanity, and those precipitation showed simplicity and purity.

There is a coffee shop on the corner of the river, located in an old street. There are many old streets in Shannan County. The wind in the old alley will never blow slowly. The tile houses in the terrace, carved eaves, the years and wind and rain have worn down the scenery of the past. The old houses in the alley are located at a forgotten intersection.

I occasionally go there to sit there.

This kind of cafe opens in the old street, unlike the coffee shops on the street, where customers always come from because of their unique feelings.

"Boss, a latte."

When I went in, a woman wearing an ink-green dress with fair skin and good temperament was sitting in the seat by the window with her eyebrows frowned.

I often sit in that seat.

"Unfortunately, your seat has been settled by that lady."

That woman is too familiar.

Especially when you are in a static state, you don’t laugh or speak, but you exude aura all over your body.

"Fan Chunyi?" I was stunned, "How could she be here?"

This was a really unexpected encounter.

"Ms. Fan."

"Lin Qiuyu, why are you here?"

"What a coincidence, this is exactly what I want to ask."

The boss lady brought a latte.

"It tastes good, this restaurant has a good coffee." Fan Chunxi said.

"This is your first time, I haven't seen you before."

"So, are you a regular here?"

"I laughed at it. The coffee here is of good quality and authentic price. A working class like me has to enjoy the bourgeois mood here. I'm afraid it's dozens of times to go out in those cafes?"

Fan Chunwei gracefully picked up the coffee and took a sip. It seemed that every sip would take a long time to savor it.

"Then you have money now, why are you still here?"

"I think Ms. Fan, you should have a say in this question than me. People like you will also come to unknown places to drink coffee. Why can't I come?"

There is a pictorial on the wall with a sentence written on it: "Xue Xiaochan said: 'In the old world, there is time, softness, and melancholy that cannot be copied. The old things are like lovers who will never go out of time. Here, they love you, understand you, and love you. They are not ostentatious or expressive, they are warm and low-key, but they understand you the best."

The boss's wife is about her early thirties, and she is no different from the female owner of a coffee shop in the art film. She is busy grinding coffee beans while chatting with me. "This coffee bean is ground by hand, and it must be ground slowly to minimize the friction between the blade and the beans themselves, and greatly retain the original fragrance."

Fan Chunxi didn't care at all and didn't answer. Time just flowed quietly in the small cafe.

"I will take office in a few days. How do Director Lin feel now?" Fan Chunxi put down her cup. She was a very dangerous woman. She usually doesn't speak much. As soon as she speaks, she can make people shake.

"When I was having a leisure time, can I not talk about this?" I felt a little disgusted with this topic, as if someone had grabbed my braid.

"So what to talk about, are there any other topics between us?"

"Yes, drinking coffee together is a friend, which means we still have a common language."

Fan Chunxi sneered without hesitation, as if she thought my words were ridiculous. In fact, I regretted it after I finished speaking. She was so shameless about talking about "common language" with her, and she was so arrogant and looked at her cold butt.

Before ten seconds, Fan Chunxi looked at me and asked, "When you said that, I'm really curious. How do you view our chance encounter today?"

"Ah?" I looked at her in surprise, "In the dark? Oh, then I can't explain it. I am just a psychology student. Scientifically speaking, this is just a probability problem."

"If you are out of the matter, maybe this explanation can be valid." Fan Chunxi said lightly. Her words were a little obscure, and they should be implying something. Maybe they wanted to see my current mental state and see if I was nervous or something else.

"Miss Fan, can you find something to me? As I thought about it, I showed up?"

"You really told me the right thing."

My face was covered with a confusing expression and almost spilled my coffee.

Seeing me like this, Fan Chunxi turned his head aside and secretly laughed.

"Miss Fan, I really didn't expect you to have such cold humor." I said a little embarrassedly.

"No kidding, really, you're right." Fan Chunxi nodded seriously. It seemed that he really didn't want to pretend.

"I have a little bit of understanding?" My mind buzzed, with awkwardness and surprise on my face, but at the same time, I was a little worried. For me, Fan Chunxi was always a trouble that I could not cause.

I saw Fan Chunxi extending his gaze out the window again, his blurry eyes, intoxicating. The old street outside is the memory of a city. It engraves the memories of generations and even dozens of generations here, the mottled walls and crooked telephone poles, and the mosses everywhere in the corners of the wall, all confirm the past.

"Miss Fan, do you have any worries?"

"That's right."

"What can bother you?"

"Since you're destined to be together, would you like to chat with me?" Fan Chunxi said with a smile, but in my eyes, the bad the smile is as bad as it is. She cunningly, and I got goosebumps all over the floor.

"You are willing to tell me that you respect me." Even though you said that, you were reluctant in your heart.

I have been in the officialdom for so long, and naturally I know the principle of flattery and getting along with others. I have also been so fucking so hard that I can hear Fan Chunxi open up and say something. It is naturally a matter of undesirable hope when I have the opportunity to listen to Fan Chunxi open up and say something.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to listen. I'll give you this opportunity this time!"

"Okay." I said that in my heart, but I can't say this nonsense. I can only smile bitterly, look at Fan Chunxi deeply, shake my head again, and sigh, "You talk, I hope it's not a bad thing."
