Chapter 52: Flames and Rivers and Clouds
On the day of the festival, Lanze went out for a run in the morning, and then sneaked into her big cowshed. She found that Yaya was doing her own work quite smoothly. However, her two brothers' work was never finished. She accompanied her and helped out.
.because little sister
She didn't have much to wear, and she always wanted to run into the corner of the warehouse where the air conditioner couldn't reach her. Yaya asked Lanze to escort her sister to the big house. After they finished working in the big cowshed, there was also a small cowshed waiting for them.
As I continue to work, I don’t know how many things there are to do.
Lan Ze picked up the little sister.
Because he is "handsome", his little sister is very cooperative.
There is an underground passage from the cowshed to the big house. Children don't like closed spaces, so Lan Ze carried the little girl and walked through the yard outside.
It's very cold outside, the sky is dark and unclear, the cold wind is howling, and there's lingering snow everywhere.
Lan Ze was afraid that the locals would think too much, so he didn't dare to put his little sister in his arms to keep her warm. Before leaving the cowshed, he took off his coat, wrapped it tightly around the child, and then hugged her again.
Yaya's mother, a housewife, saw them from the kitchen. She was startled and quickly opened the back door from the kitchen to the yard.
It was steaming in the room, and Yaya's mother was wearing short sleeves.
Lan Ze came in, put the little girl down, and quickly opened the coat she was wrapped in so as not to hide what was wrong.
Yaya's mother invited him to drink hot tea to ward off the cold, but he reluctantly declined because it was too hot in the room to stay.
He wanted to take some time off, but he couldn't. He immediately fled back to the bullpen.
While Yaya and his two younger brothers were still working, he found a wall in the haystack and put on a projector to read math books and solve problems for fun.
I don’t know when I fell asleep. When I woke up, it was already afternoon, and I was wrapped in a quilt. It seemed that Yaya found him asleep.
Missing lunch is really a big loss.
Lan Ze got up and moved around for a while, considering whether to go back to Ao's house to find some leftovers to eat, or whether to continue hanging out at the cattle farmer's house.
No matter what decision he made, he had to call Yaya first. So he called.
In less than a second, there was an immediate response.
"Don't move! I'll come right away!" Yaya's voice sounded anxious.
Since he didn't want to leave, Lan Ze lay down again. He changed his position and put a projection on the ceiling. The math book seemed quite interesting.
The days of studying abroad are still long, and he can slowly read them one by one. Until... I don't know what will happen in the future. Of course it is impossible to stay here forever, but I don't know when I can go back.
Lan Ze put the hand with the bracelet on his side and slid his fingers lazily back and forth. He turned on the page turning mode and opened the pages of the previous and next paragraphs at the same time. By reference, the content was clear at a glance. It was so clear that it was a bit boring.
Just as he was thinking about whether to skip to the next part, Yaya rushed in.
Lan Ze immediately turned off the projection and sat up.
Yaya is holding something.
This silly girl knows how to laugh.
She found a place to put her things down and opened the dry towel wrapped outside. Inside was a large tray with a basin on it.
Although he didn't know what was inside, Lanze put the quilt on her first.
Yaya sat down next to him and opened the basin. A transparent cold water bottle was revealed in the tray. It was full of milk and steaming. There was also a long straw inserted into the spout. On the plate next to it were sliced kettles.
There were minced meat and green beans, which smelled very fragrant. There was also a piece of bread on the tray, the cut surface was slightly burnt and warm.
The only tableware is a spoon and a fork, which are in Yaya's hands.
Lan Ze took a big sip of milk first and waited for Yaya to give him cutlery. But Yaya directly forked the minced meat and brought it to his mouth. How could he be so polite?
After taking a few bites, Yaya couldn't help but ask: "Is it delicious? I fried it."
"Why are you so considerate?"
It seemed that the silly girl was moved by herself.
After a while, Yaya broke the bread again. Lanze didn't want to eat it: "You can eat it yourself."
Yaya put the bread into her mouth and broke the crumbs again. Since it was the softest part, Lan Ze reluctantly took a bite.
The meat and green beans tasted good, neither salty nor bland, and had a refreshing fragrance. However, Yaya always wanted him to eat bread.
"Okay, that's enough. No more bread."
After eating and drinking enough, people tend to have wild thoughts.
Yaya was hiding under the quilt and eating bread. Lanze thought she was very cute.
"How about I give you a new name?"
"I already have a name. Why do I need a name?"
"Choose a good name."
"Daimyo...what is it again?"
After explaining the difference between a nickname and a nickname, Lanze successfully sold her the need for a nickname.
"so……"
"You are as light and lovely as the clouds in the sky. Your bright smile is like the golden morning glow on the horizon."
"So...Asakaya's words?"
"Just call me Yun. This word suits you very well."
"..."
"And my name..." Lan Ze explained eloquently. Ze is rainwater, and it is also the pond, lake, and sea formed by the rainwater from cumulonimbus clouds falling on the ground. Therefore!
"You are the cloud and I am the rain, so let's make it rain."
From Lanze's point of view, Yun+Yu's proposal is quite straightforward and unreasonable. But from the perspective of Yaya, the brand-new Miss Yun, this proposal is quite implicit, graceful, and full of profound meaning. This
Maybe it’s the cultural difference in the legend?
After explaining the cultural meaning of the word cloud + rain with practical actions, Lanze took advantage of the heat to tell the story of the origin of the word that has been passed down from ancient times.
There used to be a country called Chu State; there used to be a mountain called Wushan. Wushan stood on the riverside, and the mountain was covered with clouds. It would rain in the evening. When the King of Chu went to inspect the place, he lived by the river.
, had a dream. In the dream, King Chu met the goddess who was the incarnation of the cumulonimbus cloud in Wushan.
So, Lan Ze and Yun Yatou continued to rape the King of Chu and the goddess.
After having this story, many factors in the story became sensitive words.
For example, Yunyu has never gotten rid of the status of a sensitive word. Another example is balcony, which was originally the positioning coordinate of the goddess and was once a sensitive word. However, in the historical stage of the upstart Chinese civilization, every household had a balcony, so this word was lucky to get rid of it.
Sensitive.
After listening to the story, Miss Yun couldn't help but be excited.
Finally, before Lan Ze left happily, he left behind an ancient poem: "More than a thousand years later, someone wrote a poem using this story."
Yes, it’s the one by Yuan Zhen:
Once upon a time, there was no water in the sea, but nothing except Wushan was clouds.
I take a few flowers and look back lazily, half destined to practice Taoism and half destined to be a king.
"Tell those you love: We are unique to each other."
During the following holidays, Lan Ze only went to see Miss Yun in the afternoon. In the morning, he sometimes read books, sometimes played virtual games with the Ao brothers at home, and sometimes went out to play football with Brother Hei. He even went out for two days with the Ao family.
, went to visit relatives.
Miss Yun pestered him and asked him to explain the poem. Explain it word by word, over and over again. It seemed that this ancient poem stimulated her.
Because Miss Yun asked so many annoying questions, Lanze checked the bracelet again and was shocked.
The poet himself was a passionate person with a lot of romantic stories. The poem was written to his first wife, but she was short-lived.
Therefore, Lan Ze never mentioned the poem from then on. If Yun Yatou asked again, she would try to change the subject.
After Yunya's own hard research, "Hey, your name is a pond full of flowers, a lake."
"Yes, that's right."
“It’s so beautiful.”
