It is another Friday night. Colleagues in the magazine are in a good mood, talking about how to spend the weekend with great interest, then saying goodbye to her in twos and threes, and then leaving work with a smile. She also thought about the weekend plan with Daliu: her husband is on a business trip and won't come back until next Monday, and the children will be sent to his grandmother for the weekend. As if there was nothing to do in a hurry, she walked home slowly in the evening breeze, happy and comfortable. When I got home, the night was completely spread out in the sky and there were stars everywhere. As usual, she made a cup of mocha and sat in a daze on the bay window.
? Suddenly, a meteor crossed, like a drop of rain, and fell on her heart, moist, slightly cool, but not cold. Crackle, she suddenly remembered Haier Popper, the long-tailed comet, the guy who came to the earth only once every few years, the star that she stubbornly thought would remember her childhood wishes, and came all the way for her with distant memories. She immediately got up, went to her desk, quickly turned on the computer and faced the blank document.
? This time, she told herself in her heart that I would write a true story of my own.
? 1997 in summer, the heat is unbearable, and the whole Luoyang seems to be shrouded in a huge hot fog. When she was taking a nap, she was awakened by the banging sound of her neighbor's house. She turned over irritably, covered her head with a quilt and went back to sleep. Suddenly, she remembered that her mother had told her that a new neighbor moved next door today, and told her to go and see if she had nothing to do in the afternoon and give her a hand if she needed help. At that time, I lived in an alley, and the neighborhood was still relatively close. She got out of bed and thought about it. She still went to see her new neighbor in order to make a good impression.
? But when she crossed one yard to another, she saw the neat neighbor's house and knew she was late. She turned around in boredom to go back, but unexpectedly found a boy in a white shirt with a drawing board. Without thinking, she went over to say hello. Children should be polite, she thought. The boy turned around unexpectedly, his white face was stiff for a few seconds, and then he showed a bright smile: "Hello, my name is Fang Lu." For an instant, she thought she saw a beam of light.
? Children are always familiar with themselves. In less than an hour, she had scribbled on the drawing board in Fang Lu, and there were paints everywhere. Fang Lu has a good temper and never gets angry. Maybe she's wondering how a girl can talk to someone she doesn't know very well all afternoon. She soon got tired of painting, raised her little face still stained with watercolor, pointed to the grapes on the tree next to her, and directed Fang Lu to pick grapes for her. Fang Lu looked at the green grapes on the tree and patiently explained: The grapes are not ripe yet, and they can't be picked until they turn purple in two days. She is unhappy. After reading the story book, she immediately said angrily, "You must be because you don't want to pick it, just like the lazy fox who just wants to eat grapes." Fang Lu was surprisingly lifeless and squinted. At first glance, he really looks like a fox. That summer, Comet Haile Popper reached the perihelion, and on a clear night, people all over the world could clearly see its long tail. It is said on TV that it came more than 4,000 years ago and will come again more than 2,000 years later. She watched with Fang Lu happily, then prayed silently and made a wish. That year, she was six years old and Fang Lu was seven years old.
? In the blink of an eye, thirteen-year-old Fang Lu has grown into a charming teenager. At that time, they were already good friends who talked about everything. Every morning, she knocks on her neighbor's door, then sits in the back seat of Fang Lu's bicycle and goes to school all the way. At the age of twelve, she is a restless child. Her works are often chosen to be read on the radio. Every time in math class, the teacher will find out the novel she is reading from the desk, and then the teacher will teach her severely and punish her to stay and clean after school. But she doesn't think this is punishment at all, because she has a way. Every time Fang Lu looks up from the dusty classroom, she will see her sitting on the windowsill, talking about Yang Jiajiang and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, full of enthusiasm and high spirits. Fang Lu listened quietly. At this time, the girl's eyes would glow. Once she talked about the excitement, and her body suddenly swayed outside the window sill. Fang Lu said, hurriedly throw away the broom, pulled her down from the windowsill, unexpectedly too hard, accidentally pulled her into her arms. Fang Lu's ears soon turned red: "Ya Ya, be careful, this is the sixth floor." She shook her ponytail smartly, clenched her fists with both hands and said, "Thank you for saving my life!" "
? She thought that life would go on forever, but when she was a freshman, Lu Yun's father had to be transferred to Beijing for work reasons, and his family had to move to Beijing with him. Therefore, in the season when the phoenix tree leaves are flying, Lu Yun holds a box of stationery and says goodbye to her under the tree. Remember to write to me. Fang Lu's look is faint, and he can't see any emotion. She took the box and opened it, and the fragrance of cloves came to her face instantly. She nodded, thinking about what to give him, so she took off the longevity lock worn on her chest for 16 years, looked up and said with a smile, "Take this first, let it go to Beijing to occupy a place for me, and then return it to me when I get into Beijing." Fang Lu agreed and shouted before leaving: "Ya Ya, remember to write to me!" "She nodded and waved her arm hard, watching the car fade away, and I don't know if he can see it.
? From then on, she became the most diligent student in the class, immersed in a thick stack of books. In her spare time, she would stroll along the path covered with plane leaves and read the letters sent to her by Lu Yun. In the letter, Lu Yun told her that autumn in Beijing is also beautiful. He also carved her name on the tree and took her to see her tree when she came to Beijing. She carefully put Fang Lu's bookmark made of buttonwood leaves into the book, and then said to herself: You have to work hard, Beijing is waiting for you.
? At the age of seventeen, she became a silent and introverted girl. When her feet finally set foot on the unnamed lake, her contact with Fang Lu had been broken for a year, and the letters sent out were always returned, with the envelope saying: No one found. She strolled on the road covered with fallen leaves in autumn in Beijing and found the tree with her name written on it. She held the tree and sobbed. She found her own tree, but lost the roadside.
? After graduating from college, she traveled to several cities and had several romances, but all ended in vain. In 20 14, she returned to Beijing again and became a magazine editor. One of my colleagues, Ye, is low-key and elegant, but he writes well. There is a chemical factory in the suburbs, which is seriously polluted. The owner of the magazine sent them to make an unannounced visit and learned that the chemical plant polluted the water source of the nearby village, causing many people in the village to get sick. After coming back, the two men were filled with indignation, and Ye wrote a manuscript magnificently, accusing them of their crimes. The boss doesn't agree, because the chemical plant has a good background and dare not offend. As a result, in the office, a glib remark and a righteous remark forced the boss to give in. From then on, Ye began to pay attention to her. See that she is too busy to have breakfast and gives her unhealthy porridge every morning. I will also tell her with a smile: "I can't finish the porridge cooked by my mother, so I can share the good things together." While saying thank you, she said to him, "Your mother is so kind to you!" Ye Shenyun smiled shyly. She bowed her head and drank porridge. It's not that she doesn't understand his mind, but how can he understand her inner vicissitudes?
? One day in the company, she went to the boss's office to deliver materials. A man grabbed her and politely asked how to get to the news department. She looked at the man she had been thinking about for eight years for sure, and suddenly she felt very dizzy ... When she woke up, she saw a white ceiling and a hand waving in front of her: "Are you okay? You just fainted and scared me to death! " Of course she's fine. She just fainted because of excessive excitement. She looked at the face that belonged to Fang Lu carefully, but she felt a little confused. He doesn't seem to ... remember her. She put away her messy thoughts and had to ask something clearly.
"You don't know me?"
He smiled and replied, "No? It was only the first time I saw you. "
"Did you go to school in Luoyang ten years ago?"
"No."
She gave up. The world is so big that it is not surprising that two people look alike. She suddenly felt tired and waved her hand to indicate that he could leave.
"Don't you want to know me anymore?" He suddenly turned around and gave her a sly smile: "Hello, my name is Zhou."
After that, they began to meet, and they talked about everything. She told Zhou the way. Only occasionally, she will look at him with blurred eyes and say softly, "Fox, I haven't used up the stationery you gave me." Zhou has been thinking: what kind of person can make such a girl so obsessed with him?
On the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou invited her to a restaurant for dinner. Meanwhile, when he got up and went to the toilet, something fell out of him. Her eyes suddenly changed. It was a life lock that accompanied her for fifteen years. How could she not recognize it? She grabbed Zhou's sleeve excitedly and asked anxiously where it came from. Zhou looked down and said, "Maybe it's from someone important. I don't remember. " She didn't want to keep asking. He just smiled helplessly and said, "What do you want me to think? I had an accident before, and my parents died in that accident. The doctor said I have selective amnesia ... "She was speechless. So it is, so it is. Zhou said absently, "Actually, I came to invite you to dinner today, not to say goodbye to you. I'm going back to America soon, and my fiancee is still waiting for me in America ... I have no relatives in China, but I'm worried about you. You should live a good life. "
She suddenly felt relaxed, and everything should be put down. Goodbye, Lu Yun, she said to herself.
When she came out of the restaurant, she received a phone call from Ye, saying that she was invited to his house for dinner during the Mid-Autumn Festival. She shook her long hair and said briskly, "OK, you come to pick me up." When I arrived at Ye's home, I found that he was the only one living in a house with three bedrooms and one living room. She asked doubtfully, "Where's your mother? Doesn't she cook porridge for you every morning? " He smiled shyly: "Actually, I cooked the porridge." She suddenly understood that the man in front of her was the love she was looking for.
It's nearly late at night, and the story sister knocks down the last word and looks up at the starry sky. Scientists say that Haier Popper may still be able to see through a telescope before 2020. The story isn't over yet. She doesn't know the ending yet, but she's happy now. Hale Popper can see that. All the wishes I made when I was young should come true. The story sister smiled at the starry sky, as if she saw happiness in the haze.
Hale Popper hasn't gone far yet.
