Fallen by the Pillow: The Five Years of Being Occupied

They walked and came to the pedestrian street that many people like to go to in City S. The two of them shuttled through the bustling crowd, and then Lin Jiyue noticed that Zhuang Tianyao began to frown again, as if he would become impatient when there were too many people. What's rare is that he has been protecting her with his body to separate her from the crowd, so the two of them are very close, and she can smell the cologne on his body, which is very cold and crisp .

Lin Jiyue looked up and found that he was very tall, probably more than 1.8 meters, a head taller than the people around him, and she barely reached his shoulders.

At this time, Zhuang Tianyao suddenly lowered his head and asked her: "What kind of place is there? Why are there so many people?"

Lin Jiyue was taken aback, looked in the direction he pointed, and then smiled: "Oh, there is a time-honored store selling sweet cake dumplings, a well-known specialty, and only here can you buy the most authentic taste, so many people They all came here to buy some as gifts.”

Zhuang Tianyao raised his eyebrows, and immediately asked, "Sweet cake? Is it delicious?" But he walked over without waiting for Lin Jiyue's answer. Lin Jiyue shook her head helplessly and hurried to follow.

After a while, Zhuang Tianyao came out with a big bag of sweet cakes of different flavors, and he unpacked and ate one on the spot. He found that the crunchy, glutinous and sweet taste was very appealing to him, so he couldn't help squinting his eyes, and said with a smile on his face: "Good taste, sweet but not greasy, very delicious."

At this time, Zhuang Tianyao smiled like a child, showing such a satisfied expression just because of a small sweet cake, but what delicacy has he not tasted with his status?

Lin Jiyue found that she really couldn't understand him.

Out of the pedestrian street is the artificially dug moat, which has a history of 1000 to [-] years. Moss grows on the bluestones on both sides of the river. Under the warm sunshine, the crystal clear river surface seems to be covered with gold, rising and falling with the waves. , full of tenderness, quite a kind of antique flavor.

Seeing a small boat with a canopy waiting for guests beside the stone steps, Zhuang Tianyao got excited and proposed to go around the city by water.The boatman sang an unknown local tune while shaking his hand. They sat at the stern for sightseeing, and the breeze carried the unique warmth of this season.

Zhuang Tianyao found that the pace of life of the people here is much slower than that of the people in the urban area. Everyone has a relaxed and comfortable face. The so-called landscape and scenery nourish people is true.

He looked back at Lin Jiyue, she was much more relaxed now than when she first met him, she had naturally smiling eyes, which matched her curved eyebrows, and her gentle appearance completely blended with the scenery here .

Zhuang Tianyao subconsciously asked her: "Were you born here?"

Lin Jiyue relaxed her body and mind because of revisiting the old place, was pulled back to her thoughts by his question, and answered him gently: "Yes and no, I heard from my father that he met my mother here and got married. , and then never went back, but started a small business in this city, he often said that this is his second hometown." When talking about his parents, Lin Jiyue's expression softened a little, It is so quiet that people unconsciously fall into this gentleness.

"So that's the case." Zhuang Tianyao smiled lightly.

Suddenly, Lin Jiyue let out a "huh" and stared blankly at an old house on the right side of the river, but said nothing else.

Zhuang Tianyao asked: "What's wrong?"

Lin Jiyue withdrew her gaze, frowned and said in a low voice, "It's nothing."
