leave this sad place

Chapter 25
Along the way, Ouyang became a little worried.Yushu seemed to have noticed this too, and accompanied him quietly, no longer as lively and agile as before.

The lush mountains and green trees are like air in Ouyang's eyes at this moment, pale and transparent.He has no intention of watching these anymore, he just wants to go back earlier and let himself be quiet.To Ouyang's ears, the crisp birdsong was noise at all, which made him feel a little flustered and blocked.

"Ouyang, let me read a poem to you, okay?" Yu Shu's gentle voice came from next to his ear, and Ouyang nodded his head casually.

Yu Shu looked at Ouyang tenderly, cleared her throat, and read:
how to let you meet me
In my most beautiful moment.

For this—

I have prayed to the Buddha for 500 years,

Pray that the Buddha will let us form a relationship.

The Buddha then turned me into a tree,

grow along the way you must pass.

in the sun,
Discreetly full of flowers,
Blossoms are my longing from the previous life!

as you approach,

Please listen carefully,

That trembling leaf,
It's my passion for waiting!
And when you finally pass by in ignorance,

Falling all over the place behind you. .

Oh my friend!
That's not a petal,
It is my withered heart.

Yushu finished the last few sentences with a trembling voice.Then, looking at Ouyang silently, the corners of his eyes are slightly red.

Ouyang was startled again, he raised his head suddenly, looked at Yushu in front of him, felt very uncomfortable, and felt a bit of remorse, what was he doing?

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a tree with a few yellowish leaves falling, and I couldn't help murmuring, "That's not a flower petal, it's my withered heart." The regretful heart was a little stronger.

"What's the name of this poem?" Ouyang asked Yu Shu, looking at the corner of her eyes, his heart was full of tenderness and affection.

"A Blossoming Tree by Xi Murong." Yu Shu twitched the corner of her mouth and smiled, then asked Ouyang, "Does it sound good to me?"

"It sounds good. It's just—just—" Ouyang looked at Yushu, and then at the tree with fallen leaves.

"Just what?" Yu Shu looked at Ouyang, and her eyes returned to their bright black color.

"It's too sad." Ouyang sighed slightly.

"Then why don't you read me a non-sentimental poem?" Yu Shu blinked her dark eyes.

"Me?" Ouyang was a little surprised. I didn't read many modern poems, and I could only write down them.

"You can just read one." Yu Shu acted coquettishly.

"But I can't." Ouyang shied away.

"Then you can just read a song." Yu Shu looked at him with longing and anticipation.

Ouyang looked at the desire and expectation on Yu Shu's face, and it would be bad to refuse.

So I recalled the poems I could remember, and my heart lit up, and I thought of one.Going over it in my heart for a while, I read it affectionately:

Be a happy man from tomorrow on

Feed the horses, chop wood, travel the world
Caring about food and vegetables from tomorrow
I have a house, facing the sea, with spring flowers blooming
From tomorrow, communicate with every loved one
tell them my happiness
That happy lightning told me
I will tell everyone
Give every river and every mountain a warm name
Stranger, I also bless you
May you have a bright future
May you have a happy marriage
May you be happy in this world

I just want to face the sea, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming
"How about this song "Facing the Sea, Spring Blossoms"? Is it okay?" Ouyang finished reading, and looked at Yu Shu beside him with a smile.A ray of sunlight fell, and the corners of Ouyang's slightly raised mouth glowed with charming colors.

"The poem is a good poem, but it's a pity." After Yu Shu finished speaking, she shook her head slightly, pretending to be regretful.

"What's the pity?" Ouyang looked at Yushu's appearance and found it a little funny, as if he was a child pretending to be an old man.

"It's a pity that this good poem was ruined." Yushu giggled after finishing speaking.

"Okay, how dare you turn a corner and 'curse' me." After Ouyang finished speaking, he was about to reach out to scratch Yushu's itch.

"Where is it? How can it be?" Yu Shu hurriedly begged for mercy.

"You still don't admit it?" Ouyang laughed.

"I was wrong, so please forgive me." Yushu said "poorly".

"Okay, I won't argue with you this time." Ouyang waved his hand very "magnanimously".

"Little girl will never dare again." Yu Shu continued to pretend to be pitiful.

Ouyang gave her a blank look, raised his head to look ahead, and pointed out: "The reservoir is ahead. Let's go and have a look together."

"Yeah." Yu Shu nodded with a smile, and followed Ouyang to the front.

Blue sky, long water.Looking around, the water and the sky meet, which makes people feel refreshed.Ouyang felt at ease for a while.Those doubts, those worries were swept away by the water vapor, and suddenly disappeared.

No wonder so many people like to go to the sea, a small reservoir can do that, not to mention the magnificent, boundless sea.Ouyang felt a little yearning in his heart.

"If I knew there was such a place, I should have come earlier." Ouyang couldn't help saying.

"It's not too late now, do you like it?" Yu Shu looked at Ouyang beside her.

"I like it, how can I like it? I like it so much!" After Ouyang finished speaking, he lay down on the dam, resting his head with his hands, looking into the distance, and even further places.

Yu Shu looked at it, and lay down beside Ouyang, looking at the white clouds floating in the sky.

"Tell me—what kind of relationship do we have now?" Ouyang turned sideways, looking into Yushu's dark eyes and said.

"Let's be friends." A shyness flashed in Yu Shu's eyes.

"Oh, friendship." Ouyang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and continued to ask: "What kind of friendship?"

"I don't know." Yu Shu pursed her lips with a shy smile.

"Okay. If you don't tell me, then I——I don't know." Ouyang's eyes flashed a hint of cunning.Suddenly, he realized that Yushu's position in his heart was becoming more and more important, and even faintly surpassed Sun Xiaohong.

"Well. Then what are we doing here?" Yu Shu asked suddenly.

"How about I test you a question." Ouyang thought for a while.

"Okay." Yushu also became interested.

"One day, a merchant and two travelers were walking on the road together."

"Ouyang, are you making a question or telling a story?"

"Of course it's a question." Ouyang gave her an annoyed look.

"Oh, then you go on."

"Walking and walking, they were tired and hungry. At this time, traveler A took out 2 cakes, and traveler B took out 3 cakes, but the merchant didn't have any cakes. But he was also hungry and wanted to eat So I said to those two people, "Let's share it equally, and I will give you two money after eating." The two people agreed after a while."

Ouyang took a breath, and continued: "So they divided each cake into 3 parts, 5 cakes, a total of 15 parts, 5 parts per person is just right."

"And then? Could it really be a story?" Yushu asked.

"You'll know later." Ouyang continued: "When they finished eating, the businessman gave them 5 gold coins and asked them to distribute them themselves."

"Ouyang, you remember correctly. 5 gold coins? That cake is really expensive!" Yu Shu couldn't help but interrupted again.

"That's just a code name for Qian, do you still want me to talk about it?"

"Okay, you go on."

"Do you know how to distribute the 5 gold coins?" Ouyang finished speaking, looked at Yushu, and waited for her to answer.

"That's not easy, give A 2 gold coins, give B 3 gold coins." Yu Shu muttered again, "You underestimate me too much, elementary school students know such a simple question, and you still come to test me."

"Are you sure?" Ouyang looked at her with a half-smile.

Seeing Ouyang's expression, Yu Shu thought, "Is there something wrong?", and hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, let me think about it again." Mumbling, "Give me 5 gold coins, Jia 2 cakes, B has 3 pies. How else can we distribute them? But judging by his appearance, could it be that he deliberately scares me."

So Yu Shu shrank her mind slightly, nodded with some hesitation and said, "Yes—definite."

"Primary school student, then you are wrong. You really thought I could ask such a simple question." Ouyang smiled slightly.

"What? How did I go wrong? Then how do you distribute it?" Yu Shu became interested again.

"Give A 1 gold coin and give B 4 gold coins. This is the fairest distribution."

"why?"

"Think about it yourself. If you don't understand, I'll tell you." Ouyang still looked at her with a smile.If you get the answer directly without thinking about it, what's the point of doing the question?

"Oh, I see. Each cake is divided into 3 parts, A's 2 cakes are 6 parts, he eats 5 parts himself, and only gives 1 part to the businessman. Similarly, B eats 5 parts himself, but gives 4 merchants."

"Well, smart." Ouyang said without hesitation.

"Come again, I'll try again." Yu Shu rolled up her sleeves and was ready to fight.

"What? But I didn't think of a good question."

"Why don't you? Let me test you." Yu Shu smiled and narrowed her eyes.

"please do not."

"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult."

"Really?"

"Really, it's very simple." Yu Shu bit the word "simple" very hard.Seeing that Ouyang was a little frightened, he couldn't be so stingy, could he?
"Okay." Ouyang closed his eyes, it seems that it is impossible to prevent her from moving back to the first game.

"Triangle geometry has an octagon, triangle triangle, geometric geometry?" Yu Shu did not forget to add: "It's really simple."

As soon as Ouyang thought about it, his brain was calculating rapidly like a machine running at high speed.But he kept muttering, "What? It's so simple? What about triangles and octagons? And geometry, what do you mean? Are you asking how many angles there are in total?" Ouyang thought hard for a while again, Still to no avail.

Looking at Yushu in front of her with a wry smile, the question she asked was too harsh, making it difficult for people to understand.

"That's what you said is very simple!" Ouyang couldn't help biting "very simple" very hard.

Yushu pursed her lips, pretending to be very serious, nodded, and added, "Elementary school students can do it."

Ouyang continued to bury his head in his thoughts, and still murmured, "Elementary school students can do it. If I don't know how to do it, wouldn't it be—"

Finally, Ouyang hung his head and said helplessly: "Okay, tell me the result."

"Do you want to think about it again? It's really simple." Yu Shu said with a half-smile.

Ouyang looked at her weakly and shook his head.

"The answer is five cents. It means that the two books "Triangle" and "Geometry" cost eight cents in total, and "Triangle" cost three cents. How much did "Geometry" cost? See, I didn't lie to you, did I? It's very simple." After Yu Shu finished speaking, she looked at Ouyang with a smile on her face.

Ouyang looked "I was defeated by you", and then looked up at the sky.

A white cloud drifted past, like a mocking face, laughing at him for always thinking simple things very complicated!
And what about Yu Shu?

Will those complicated issues be seen as too simple?

who knows?
God?

The sky has long been silent.
