When the New Year approached for several consecutive years, I sent WeChat to my high school classmates who were still alive, advocating that the Network meet to enhance friendship. In 2020, send a picture of each, meet together, spell out a reunion card, and wish each other peace and auspiciousness.
Last year was the Year of the Ox, the bull was soaring, upgraded to a combination of videos, requiring each family to record a short video, integrating and forming a network group worship atmosphere with rich voice and emotion, and made a beautiful article "Elderly Students, Network Spring". Now, on the occasion of the Year of the Tiger, the tiger is full of power, I originally wanted to engage in a synchronous video simulcast, forced by the conditions, can only fantasize, still issued an initiative, imploring Xueyou to record the video again, ready to synthesize vibrato upload, and enjoy the same joy.
The initiative was issued, and the same window responded immediately. Yueyang, Changsha, New York, Lanzhou, Xiangtan, videos came pouring in, and I was deeply moved to see the beautiful scene of xueyou and his wife. Yes, the reunion of the Year of the Tiger must be well conceived and done lively and festive.
2022.01.22 Saturday night 22:11, I just came home from the dance hall, suddenly received Lanzhou Xueyou WeChat: "I love Lanzhou lily, it has a flower-like appearance, snow-like color, jade-like softness, water-like simplicity." There is also the low-key style that has been living in the sand for many years without publicity. It nourishes and gives people a fragrance. Its quality and taste resemble Xianglian. It often triggers Xiang love and releases nostalgia. In order to convey this love for Lily, I sincerely want to enjoy and taste it with you. ”
In an instant, I was both surprised and confused, with mixed feelings. Is this text of deep love and praise for Lily just expressing "triggering Xiang love and releasing nostalgia"?
After a while, at 22:32, the mobile phone rang, and WeChat arrived again: "Zou Kunshan: Hello!" In order to convey my love for Lily, and to enjoy the joy of the online reunion of the thirteenth class of high school every New Year, I sent some lilies to the editing comrades to show my condolences. Say it, the old classmates have worked hard! And declare that the reunion video is the best gift, I am just a gift! ”
yes! I see!
Lily, I'm not unfamiliar. I often eat lily lotus seed soup, and wanzai lily powder is also my favorite, but I have never seen a fresh lily, I don't know it. I'm looking forward to it. This night, I slept soundly and had sweet dreams.
One day before the child, the courier arrived, and the mystery was revealed: the exquisite packaging of Lanzhou lilies made my eyes light up, hurriedly opened the package, and finally saw the true appearance of fresh lilies; indeed, it was like the appearance of flowers, like the color of snow, like the softness of jade, like the simplicity of water. The petals are hugged tightly, stacked layer by layer, shaped like a white lotus, no wonder "triggering Xiang love, releasing nostalgia"! Lily ah lily, lily together, hundred friends together, a hundred years of good union! What a symbol of unity, friendship, harmony and cooperation, and eternal love!
In the early morning of the New Year, I carefully peeled off and washed a lily flap, put it into a dish, like appreciating works of art, first enjoyed it, and then ate the lilies raw one by one, chewed slowly, and was real, crisp and sweet, intoxicating!
yes! Lily, Lily, woke up my "sleeping death" love again! The "love game" that remained in the heart is back! I was crunchy chewing and I distinctly heard "Hey! Zou Kunshan, you're out of food again! She said to me meaningfully, and her gaze prompted me: Pick up this little ball of "rice"!
I immediately picked up the small "rice ball", did not put it in my mouth, did not put it in the rice bowl, but threw it into my pocket. Avoiding people, quietly unfolding this strip of paper rolled into a rice ball, as if ripping open tender petals, surprised and delighted, it turned out to be the "covenant of roses".
As promised, we met at the stadium, went out of the school together, climbed the famous building overlooking Junshan Mountain, wandered through the alleys, and when we returned to the school, we were partial to the narrow road, and met the secretary of the nosy regiment branch, and threw a sentence lukewarmly: "You are crazy and happy!" ”
Perhaps the hazy early love is too conspicuous, making people blind, and even attracting white eyes. She read the condemnation in her strange eyes, saw the wolf's tooth stick that "angrily beat the Mandarin Duck", and felt fear. Finally, one evening, she walked up to my desk and whispered, "Laborer, help me, pinch the end of this note." Of course, I obeyed the order, who expected her to pull out the knife that had been prepared from behind her with lightning speed, and suddenly cut off the note. I was suddenly dazed and watched her escape from the classroom.
However, just after the game of "one knife and two cuts", the next day we met on the rocks on the lakeside. Chun and Jingming, looking at the babbling lake, this time I am smart, I begged her to use her hand as a knife to split the lake water, she really split up, I laughed, whispered and sincerely said: "The knife cuts the water more, and the cut paper breaks the love more!" Tell you that communication can be cut off twice, and feelings cannot be cut off in two! ”
It has always been shallow, why should it be deep? After graduating from high school, I went to Luojia Mountain, and she went to Yuelu Mountain. For some reason, she sent me thick letters from the aiwan pavilion, and among the thousands of words, the most heart-pounding thing for me was that she quoted my proverb: "Communication can be cut off twice, and feelings cannot be cut off in one go!" ”
Nowadays, we are all old, although thousands of miles away, still under a blue sky, "a thousand miles together Chan Juan", I often "wake up" this "sleepy" love, in fact, what is woken up is not love, but the sincere friendship between classmates? May we love each other, be healthy and happy, and work together for more than 100 years! A hundred years of good union!
Gift lily, maybe there is this meaning.
