The Sweetness of the Seventies

Chapter 4 Green Persimmon

After a while, I arrived in front of the home in my memory.

There are two round copper rings as big as bowls on the door, and an iron lock in the middle, locking the two mottled wooden doors.

This was once her home, but now it belongs to Qi Fangfang, and it is no longer her home.

Now think about it, how ridiculous she is! How stupid!

This house was left to her by her parents, but because of her inner guilt, she was unwilling to come here and left her parents' memorial tablets alone.

Since the house was transferred to my sister-in-law, perhaps even the memorial tablets of my parents have disappeared due to the ruthlessness of my sister-in-law's family. The name of the house here has been changed, and the things left by the parents have become someone else's.

She lost so many valuable things because of her own weakness and cowardice, which is ridiculous and sad! This was her punishment and she deserved no sympathy from anyone, and now that she was all alone, she had no one to pity her.

He Tiantian pushed the dilapidated wooden door hard, and the two doors fell into the yard as if they could no longer withstand the external force.

Qi Fangfang was transferred to Huai City ten years ago, and the yard in Nan City became empty. No one has lived there for a long time, and the yard is overgrown with weeds. An old persimmon tree has been neglected, but it still grows many large green persimmons.

He Tiantian looked inside and out, and found that the furnishings inside were beyond recognition and dilapidated. She walked to the persimmon tree, picked a green persimmon, rubbed it with her hands, and took a bite. The sour taste filled her entire mouth.

Although it was difficult to swallow, the sour taste made her brain clearer and her thinking clearer.

At this moment, I heard footsteps faintly coming from far away.

He Tiantian didn't know why, she instinctively hid behind the persimmon tree and held her breath. At this time, she didn't want to see anyone.

"Chairman, this place is messy and dirty, you should go back!" A middle-aged man said humbly, leaning slightly to persuade the middle-aged man who kept walking forward.

"This is my home. No matter how messy it is, it's still my home." Although the man's voice was not loud, it conveyed gentleness and stubbornness.

He Tiantian was slightly startled. She would remember this voice for the rest of her life. Although there have been some vicissitudes of time, the clear voice has not changed.

It's him! Huo Yingjie!

At this moment, He Tiantian's heart was filled with sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty, and mixed flavors.

Just when He Tiantian was lost in thought, a persimmon branch half a meter above his head moved a few times, and someone next door reached out and picked a green persimmon.

"Chairman, this persimmon is not ripe..." Someone reminded that you should not eat more persimmons even if they are ripe, let alone unripe persimmons, which will definitely taste very bad.

Huo Yingjie did not answer, but seemed to be mumbling to himself: "Astringent persimmons are the most refreshing..."

This sentence, like a key, opened the memory gate of He Tiantian.

"Brother Yingjie, I keep taking naps in class, what should I do?" A round-faced girl with braids tilted her head and asked the omnipotent brother next door. She must find a way. If the teacher catches her napping again next time, she will call her parents. She is a good baby, how can she bear to call her parents when she makes a mistake?

"Idiot, astringent persimmons are the most refreshing. You can bring one with you tomorrow. If you are sleepy, take a bite and you will never feel sleepy again." Huo Yingjie, who was already a handsome young man, came up with an unreliable idea and revealed A sly smile.

Originally, he wanted to tease this little girl, but He Tiantian took it seriously.

He Tiantian ate the sour persimmon and did not doze off. However, he was caught by the teacher eating in class and still did not escape the fate of being called his parents.

But the simple He Tiantian still thinks that Brother Yingjie is very powerful and can come up with such a good method.

Although she was still called a parent, it was because she was careless. If she was careful next time she ate, she wouldn't be caught.

Astringent persimmon! This is a secret between the two of them.

He remembers!

She remembers it too!

There was a voice in my heart, clamoring for He Tiantian to go see that person. But He Tiantian's mind flashed to the face in the dressing mirror in the morning, and she stayed away.

She left here at the age of eighteen. At that time, she was like a young girl waiting to bloom, with smooth skin, watery eyes, graceful figure, light, beautiful and healthy.

But now, my hair is white, my skin is sagging, my eyes are no longer clear, and my figure is out of shape.

She didn't have the courage to come out. She has been like this in this life, so let her stay in his best memory.

The footsteps on the next wall became farther and farther, and Huo Yingjie left.

He Tiantian didn't want to come out to see Huo Yingjie, but she wanted to take one more look at him, even if she only saw the man's back. Half of his head poked out, waiting for the person to pass by the gate.

As if sensing something, Huo Yingjie turned his head and looked at the old persimmon tree.

Under the persimmon tree, there are only wild grasses, and there is no longer the pretty girl who grinned and winked while eating the persimmons.

He Tiantian retracted her head before Huo Yingjie looked over.

Huo Yingjie turned his head and continued walking forward.

The assistant beside him noticed that the chairman's steps were messy and his straight back was slightly bent. Maybe... maybe the chairman was thinking of someone!

When He Tiantian stuck her head out again, she only saw Huo Yingjie's back. Although it was just a back view, it was enough for He Tiantian.

At this moment, He Tiantian suddenly felt a little pain and numbness in her ankle, as if she was bitten by something, and lowered her head to look down.

A small silver-white snake as long as a chopstick bit He Tiantian's ankle. It was summer now, and He Tiantian was wearing a loose skirt. Although she had stockings on her feet, they could not block the two sharp teeth of the small silver snake.

Just when He Tiantian raised her foot to shake off the small red snake on her foot, she suddenly found that her body was weak and she had no strength to lift her feet. She could no longer stand on her feet, and let her body collapse on the ground as if she had no bones.

Although the strength in her body gradually disappeared, He Tiantian could not shout or ask for help. The fear of death shrouded He Tiantian's heart, but when her eyes fell on the stone table not far from the persimmon tree, she was not afraid.

In the past, she and her parents often ate at the stone table next to the persimmon tree. There are too many memories of her, her parents, and Huo Yingjie in this yard.

Knowing the truth before dying is more satisfying than dying in a lie; before dying, she can see the person she can only see in her dreams in her own yard, and she has no regrets.

He Tiantian's eyes became heavier and heavier, and she gradually lost consciousness.
