Today, Qingyang has become more open and more casual. I am lucky to get it and lose my life. If I can get Yu Mengmiao, Qingyang will certainly cherish it. If he can't get it, he will feel sorry in his heart, won't complain about heaven and earth, let alone look for life and death.

Qingyang stood quietly in the crowd and showed no abnormality. He didn't follow the crowd out of the city master's house until the engagement meeting was over and the monks left.

After leaving the city master's residence, Qingyang spent a day in Qingfu city. There was no shelter for such a big Qingfu city. He couldn't be interested in anything. Finally, Qingyang turned around and walked outside the city. Yu Mengmiao has found his destination. He has no last concern in the world. Where can he go?

Although he made up his mind, Qingyang was always ruthless and walked away. In the final analysis, he still couldn't let go. Therefore, after leaving the city, Qingyang didn't sacrifice yufenghu to fly, but walked slowly along the road, just like going for a spring outing.

One day, Qingyang only walked a hundred miles. At this time, a white lake suddenly appeared in front of it. The lake is not big, only more than ten miles around. The lake is surrounded by white sand and pebbles, which reflects the whole white of the lake. There is an old tea shed near the road by the lake. At this time, there are no guests. Only an old woman sits under the shed bored.

The old woman has white hair and wrinkles. Qingyang estimates that she has at least more than 70 people. Her life has been rare for 70 years. It's really rare for mortals to live to this age. Seeing Qingyang, the old woman said, "young man, are you tired on your way? Come and have a cup of tea?"

Qingyang is actually older than the old woman, but he is an immortal and has always maintained the appearance of a young man. Although he has experienced a series of blows during this period, which makes him haggard and old, he is much younger than the old woman. Qingyang has been preoccupied these two days. For the time being, he doesn't have a destination. It's almost where he goes. Now when he sees the other party's initiative to invite him, he stops and walks under the tea shed and says, "thank you, old woman."

The old woman let Qingyang to an old table, then turned around and took a large coarse porcelain bowl, sprinkled some tea powder in it, and made boiling water. Then she sat down in a chair next to Qingyang and looked at him and said: "I don't think you're like a scholar on an outing, a passer-by in a hurry, or a farm worker busy making a living. You're worried and aimless all the way. You must have met something on your mind. Can you tell the old woman?"

Qingyang didn't want to say anything about himself. He said casually, "I just walked around and came here inadvertently. I don't know where this is?"

The old woman smiled and said, "this lake is called Baishou lake."

Baishou lake? Does it mean to grow old together? Seeing that the whole lake is white, it is also vivid to call it this name. Qingyang casually asked, "why is it called Baishou lake?"

The old woman said, "speaking of this, there is a story. I don't know if the guests want to listen?"

"I'd like to hear it in detail." Qingyang said. It's all right anyway. It doesn't hurt to listen.

The old woman recalled, and then said slowly: "Many years ago, there was a village near the lake. Although there were few families, it was quiet and peaceful. There was a young man and woman in the village. They were childhood sweethearts and had no guess. Later, they grew up and reached the age of marriage, but the man couldn't afford the bride price of the woman's family. The man went to a rich family to work long-term and asked the woman to wait for him for several years, Said he would come back and marry the woman after saving enough money. "

"What happened later?" Qingyang asked. He lived in the mundane world since childhood and understood the human suffering. He had heard a lot of such things and had all kinds of endings.

The old woman said, "the woman took this as true and waited for the man to come back and marry her. No matter how much coercion and inducement her parents made, she couldn't change her mind. As a result, this wait was ten years. Ten years later, the man sent back the news that he was about to save enough money. Unexpectedly, he accidentally broke the owner's valuables. He had no money to repay, so he had to sell himself to pay off his debts."

Qingyang listened quietly and didn't speak. The old woman continued: "the woman had no other way but to sigh about her life. She continued to wait for the man by the lake. When he finished paying off his debt and came back to marry her, it was another ten years. As a result, the man didn't come back. He only brought news that he was forced by his master's family and had no choice but to burden each other. Even the children were several years old."

Being forced into the rich family? And this kind of good thing? It's just an excuse for her shameless behavior. Qingyang said, "that woman believes it?"

The old woman didn't seem to hear Qingyang's words and said to herself: "Although the woman was sad, he firmly believed that the man was forced and helpless, so he continued to wait for him by the lake. Ten years later, the news of the man came again that the rich Weng was dead. Now he has taken over each other's family wealth. Although he was forced and helpless at the beginning, there are only orphans and widows left there. He can't go away or let go of the stall, so he has to stay there 。”

Hearing this, Qingyang was too lazy to make complaints about it. "In the twinkling of an eye, ten years later, the man's wife finally passed away, and his family property passed to his son. The man finally put down everything and returned to the lake with a white hair to fulfill his promise. Unfortunately, his time was running out. He only lived with the woman for three days and died. Later, the lake was changed to Baishou lake for a few years 。”

The woman waited for the man for 40 years, but she only got along with him for three days. These three days may just be the man's Conscience Discovery before he died to comfort the woman or make up for his guilt. Qingyang said: "Didn't the woman think that it might just be the other party's lie, and there was nothing to sell to pay off the debt, but the man was greedy for wealth and entered the rich family, and all his words were lying to the woman?"

The old woman shook her head and said, "no, the woman never regretted it, because she always believed that men liked him and had to do everything. Even if the man was really lying to her, it was for her good. Otherwise, why did she wait for 40 years?"

Qingyang didn't argue with the old woman. He said, "I didn't expect that there was such an infatuated woman in the world. It's really admirable, but the woman's 40 years of waiting only resulted in three days with her lover. Isn't it too short?"
