Chapter 7 Acacia Red Beans
Dead city?
Looking into the waiter's eyes, I couldn't find any reason or panic for him to lie, but Ruolan City is a dead city, so what did You Chen ask me to look for?
"Na Lan City is the largest wealthy city in the south. Even our boss is from Lan City. But one year, it was said that it rained blood one day, and Lan City became a Shura hell in an instant. Later, Lan City died and left, but no one mentioned the incident back then. Naturally, we outsiders only knew some rumors!" The waiter sighed.
"I wonder if you have heard of Hongdou?" My junior sister and I entered the room, and couldn't help but think of the Hongdou that You Chen asked me to look for.
"Red beans are not rare objects, but there was a custom that the grains at home cannot grow red beans, eat red beans, and they cannot represent the lovesickness between men and women like in the past." After the waiter said that, he leaned over and retreated.
I didn't go to inquire again, but I knew that the red beans that You Chen was looking for were not ordinary objects after all. After all, no matter how poor the national teacher of a country was, he would not be worried about a grain.
"What do you think, Master is looking for red beans?" The young junior sister put the package on the table and sat on the chair at will.
"Master is your uncle again, can't you understand his intention?" I raised my eyes and looked at the junior sister. I didn't know why You Chen was proficient in planning, but the junior sister was simple-minded. I couldn't find the contact, why was the junior sister accepted by You Chen as her apprentice.
"...The You family is a famous family. When the uncle insisted on giving up his aristocratic status, he traveled around with the previous generation of national masters. It was not until the previous generation of national masters ascended to heaven that the uncle inherited the position of national masters. However, he always denied the You family, so I became a communication between my father and uncle." The junior sister smiled and sighed.
I remained silent. Every family had difficult sutras to recite, and I didn't know how to calm her down.
"Is there anything that bothering you, too?" The youngest sister sat at the table, smiling sweetly, suddenly turned to look at me and asked.
"Trouble? My trouble is that I don't want to live but I'm afraid of death." I smiled faintly, with contempt.
"Senior sister is troubled by life and death, but I am worried about these trivial matters." The youngest sister looked at me with a smile, but it made me a little complicated and difficult to distinguish.
"Xianran, what was your previous name?" I asked her with curiosity across from her.
"Youxin Liu." The young junior sister mentioned her previous name, and couldn't help but hide a little nostalgia in her eyes.
"Xin Liu, it's a bit more human flavor than Xianran." I smiled.
"Where is the senior sister?" The junior sister looked at me with a curiosity that could not be hidden.
"I haven't remembered it for a long time." Some pasts are existences that cannot be seen in the light. I just acquiesced to put it in the past, but I don't want it to appear in the present.
"That's a pity. My mother said that when I gave birth to me, the willow tree had just sprouted, and the tender green willow represents life, so she gave me a name called Xinliu, which has the same meaning."
"I was very naughty when I was a child, but my father spoiled me very much, so I have never suffered the hardships of my daughter's family. My mother said that the sufferings she suffered would never be allowed to be suffered for the second time, so my life is still better."
"Second Senior Sister said, you are the most comfortable person on the mountain. She also wants to be like you, but she is bound by the world in the end." The junior sister said, looking at me with an unknown meaning.
"That's right." I couldn't help but feel a little bitter, but I still smiled faintly and refused to refute.
I am originally secular, but I am still fascinated by this world.
