Chapter 135 The Promise of Reunion
Chapter 135 The Promise of Reunion
She is about to leave the place where she has lived for many years and go to a new world.
"Chen Fang, are you really going to the city?" Aunt Li from the village head walked slowly towards them, her face full of complicated expressions, like a flower in spring, blooming but revealing a hint of sadness.
"Yes, Aunt Li." Chen Fang smiled slightly, forcing a smile, "I have a new opportunity in the city. I can learn better skills and bring more good things back to the village in the future."
"You are such a smart and sensible child." Aunt Li sighed and sat beside her. "But life in the city is not easy. The dazzling world may not be as good as you imagine."
"I know." Chen Fang nodded seriously, "But I don't want to stagnate. I always want to try a broader world."
At this time, another young girl in the village, Wang Mei, came over with a basket of freshly picked wild flowers. She put the basket down, trembled slightly, and said with a choked voice, "Sister, you are leaving, when will you come back?"
"Well..." Chen Fang coughed lightly, trying to make herself look more relaxed. "I will come back once I finish my studies and take you to see the outside world."
"I may never see you again here." Wang Mei bit her lip, tears flashing in her eyes, "You are the last girl in our village who wants to go out. Everyone hopes that you can fly higher."
"I will." Chen Fang gently held Wang Mei's hand, with warmth in her heart. "I will bring honor to you and will not let you down."
At this moment, a burst of laughter came from a distance, and several children were chasing and playing, instantly breaking the heavy atmosphere. Chen Fang couldn't help laughing, she washed away the sorrow on her face, turned around, looked at those innocent faces, and felt a warm feeling in her heart.
"Come on, be careful not to fall!" Uncle Zhang next to them suddenly reminded loudly, and the children smiled and turned back to continue their games.
"Chen Fang, after you leave, will the children still play like this?" Aunt Li smiled bitterly and shook her head. "They admire you and often ask you to teach them how to do handicrafts."
"I will think of them often." Chen Fang said softly, looking through the broken tiles on the door frame, as if she saw the little scene of her teaching children in the village, and the laughter at that time was still in her ears. Life is not easy, but these little joys are enough to support her future.
The light of dusk gradually faded, and night fell, with stars lighting up one by one. Villagers came to see Chen Fang one after another, and had prepared dumplings and wine for her as farewell gifts. Everyone sat together, and although they knew that they might not see each other again, they tried to create a warm atmosphere at this moment.
"Come on, Chen Fang, have a drink. I wish you a bright future!" The village chief raised his glass loudly, and everyone echoed him.
"Thank you, everyone." Chen Fang picked up the cup, her eyes slightly moist, "I will remember this friendship firmly, even in the city, I will carry your kindness in my heart."
"You must live a good life. Remember, your family will always support you." Aunt Li's voice was gentle but firm.
"I will never let you down." Chen Fang nodded slightly, feeling mixed emotions. She felt that this warmth came not only from family love, but also from support for her courageous pursuit of her dreams.
Just then, Liu Hua walked over in the morning light, with a barely perceptible worry on his face.
"Chen Fang, are you really leaving?" Liu Hua's voice was low, revealing a hint of reluctance and concern.
"Well, Liu Hua, I'm going to the city." Chen Fang replied with a smile, trying to make her voice sound calm, "I think I can learn more skills there, and hope to make some contributions to the village in the future."
"If you do well in the city, when will you come back?" Liu Hua's eyes were deep, as if he wanted to see into her heart, and there was a hint of expectation in his tone.
"I promise you, if I can achieve my wish, I will come back." Chen Fang's eyes flashed with determination, "I will bring back new things from the city and make everyone's life better."
"Remember not to forget the people here." Liu Hua relaxed his tense expression a little, and raised a smile. "We are all looking forward to your return. No matter how far you are, life in the village will not change."
"I will miss you all, especially you." Chen Fang's voice was gentle, but deep melancholy welled up in her heart. Looking at Liu Hua's familiar face, it seemed that every corner was filled with memories.
"Tell me about your life in the city and write to me more often." Liu Hua said seriously, with a hint of ridicule in his tone, "If you become rich, don't forget me, a poor boy."
"Where can I go to forget you?" Chen Fang smiled softly, with a hint of warmth and tenderness in her eyes. She knew that in the village not far behind her, a precious emotion would be firmly locked at this moment.
"When you return after completing your studies, I want to see how outstanding you have become!" Liu Hua's expression gradually became lively, just like the rising sun. "Then, I must be your first disciple!"
"Okay, it's a promise." Chen Fang's eyes sparkled, and the emotion in her heart became stronger and stronger, and it was hard to let go. "If I fail to fulfill my wish, then I will never make a promise."
"No, Chen Fang, I believe you!" Liu Hua's voice was firm and warm. At this moment, it seemed as if the whole world had stopped with their vows, and no matter how time passed, this emotion could not be shaken.
The water of the stream rippled gently, as if responding to their vows. The sunlight shone through the gaps between the willow leaves, dappled on Chen Fang's face, as if reflecting the surge and expectation in her heart. At this moment of separation, their hearts seemed to be closer.
"I'm leaving then, Liu Hua, and you have to take good care of yourself." Chen Fang slowly let go of her hand and turned her gaze slowly to the path ahead, her eyes filled with reluctance.
"Wait for you to come back!" Liu Hua's voice floated in the morning air, like a promise, echoing in their hearts. His eyes followed her back, his heart full of expectation and concern.
Chen Fang took a step forward and walked along the path towards the unknown future. Her heart was always concerned about the village and the people here. Every step was heavy and firm, and every breath was filled with hope and dreams.
Opening a new chapter and meeting the challenge of fate, she silently said in her heart: "If I succeed in the city, I will definitely lead the village to a better future." And the agreement between her and Liu Hua will also become the most beautiful sustenance in her heart.
