On the day he was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, Lin Suisui calmly arranged his funeral arrangements.
After three years of marriage, she was as quiet as a decoration in Lu Yubai's eyes. Now, she decided to leave quietly.
With a box of old things, she fled to Yunqi Town, which was almost nowhere to be found on the map, and rented an old house with a view of the river.
Here, time slows down like water dripping from the eaves, and pain becomes a long, dull sound.
Until the landlord Gu Qinghe, who always left a lamp for her on rainy days and cooked a bowl of medicinal porridge for her in the early morning, used stoneware medicine pots and silver needles to warm her frozen bone marrow bit by bit.
When Lu Yubai used all his resources to find her, she was coughing up blood, but smiling at a newly bloomed wild chrysanthemum in the corner.
He brought a divorce settlement, top experts and enough wealth to buy half a town, and said hoarsely: "Come back with me for treatment."
She just shook her head, handed the hot medicine bowl back to Gu Qinghe, and said softly: "It's too bitter, I want a candy."
Later, Lu Yubai held a grand banquet every year on her "death anniversary", and everyone praised him for his affection.
Thousands of miles away, honeysuckle blooms by the river in the small town year after year.
There are always people who see the gentle Dr. Gu sitting quietly on the patio of his old house at dusk, watching the flower petals fall on the opened Book of Songs - there is a crooked sketch on that page, depicting his profile with his head bowed while pounding medicine.
"Sui Sui," he once fed her the most bitter medicine in the world and wiped away the blood stains on her lips, his voice as steady as a mountain, "Let's walk slowly."
So all the suffering in her life finally came to an end and there was no need to rush.
Reader comments
What a new book! Finished reading! Very good. There wasn't much entanglement with the CEO at the beginning, and he left very quickly and simply, without too much procrastination. Most of the plot revolved around the heroine's recovery from illness, and it was the daily life of the male and female protagonists. There is not a vicious supporting character, and everyone in it is nice. Although the CEO was not good to the heroine before, at least he is not an outlaw Zhang San. He will not use any coercive means to get the heroine back. He just speaks a bit loudly. After watching it, my impression is that he spoke very loudly. I'm sorry, maybe I remembered it wrong. Anyway, because he doesn't have many roles, and he said he wouldn't bother me anymore, he really stopped bothering me. To be honest, such honest CEOs are rare nowadays. So overall, I feel pretty good about him. Later, he married another girl. I think that girl is also a very good girl. She has very few scenes and only appears in extra scenes. But I think she is also a good person. Well, yes, I think she is. Let's talk about the heroine. I think the transformation of the heroine's mentality is very well written, from waiting to die at the beginning (a bit, I think it is a bit), to getting medicine later, to acupuncture, to appreciating life, and living every day well. Although her body is still gradually failing, I feel that her spiritual world has been healed. She also said it herself. From Mrs. Lu, she has truly become Lin Suisui. But I think I have a little suggestion, that is, I want to say, doesn't the big introduction say that the CEO will hold a banquet to commemorate the heroine (every year)? But he got married again later, and it didn't seem to be mentioned in the extra episode. Mainly because I thought it was a bit bad for that girl? Of course, don't worry about your personal opinions. I just want to say whether you want to change the introduction. Of course, it's not a big deal if you don't want to change your personal opinions. I'm just telling you what I think. There is a lot of professional knowledge in this book, but I am impatient and anxious to read the plot, so I will skip it. I'm sorry, Dada, I don't respect the fruits of your labor. Smith Marseille Dajiang~ It seems that I have said a bit too much. It is purely personal opinion and personal thoughts. If there is any offense or mistakes, I apologize [sending my heart][sending my heart][sending my heart]
