Chapter 501 The day before yesterday was a rabbit, yesterday was a deer, today is you

Qinmei opened the window, and the breeze blew, rolled up the curtains and her hair.

Her eyes were half open and half closed, as lazy as a beauty who had not woken up, with a hint of sadness and loneliness. She turned her head slightly and looked at Okazaki... as if she was facing the audience in front of the TV.

The soft voice was as gentle as ever, but it had a slight unusual smell.

"The day before yesterday... I saw the little rabbit. Yesterday was the little deer, today, it was you."

What a nice view!

I can't tell why, but when I saw this scene, the only word that emerged from my heart was "so beautiful".

This beauty is a very wonderful feeling.

Qin Mei's words were also deeply imprinted in Qiao An's heart.

"I saw the little rabbit the day before yesterday. Yesterday was a deer, today was you..."

His father next to him suddenly repeated a sentence, with inexplicable emotion and melancholy in his voice.

"Do you know this?" the father asked again.

"Huh?" Perhaps out of concern for Kotomi, he actually replied to his father's words, with curiosity in his voice.

"Dandelion Girl... This is a science fiction love short story by American writer Robert Franklin Young, and his most famous work. The-saturday-evening-post, published in April 1961, was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Story. This sentence is quoted from the quote that was repeatedly emphasized: The day before yesterday I saw a rabbit, yesterday was a deer, and today was you."

The anger in my father's previous words suddenly disappeared. He said to Qiao An indifferently with a calm attitude that he had never seen before.

Perhaps, he was not talking to Joan. He was just talking to himself.

It turned out to be a foreign science fiction love short story sentence?

My father actually knew this sentence?

Although he was curious, he asked nothing, as if he asked his father that this protracted family fighting spirit had failed.

The father continued to talk to himself.

"One day, a man named Mark, in his forties met a girl in his twenties in his twenties on the mountain. Mark found that he fell in love with this girl, but he already had his wife Anne. He loved his wife very much, but he found that his heart actually fell in love with another woman, which made him very painful."

"Shu. What's so painful about this? Since you like it, then you'll just take it all away." Qiao An blurted out. Although his eyes were watching TV, his attention had long been attracted by his father's words.

My father glanced at him deeply and said nothing.

Qiao An felt awkward. He always ignored his father, but this was the first time his father did not respond to his words, which made him feel like he was disgusted as if he was regarded as a "child".

His dissatisfaction was not shown, since his father didn't say it, he could just watch the animation quietly.

Suddenly, the room fell into silence.

After a while, my father's voice rang out again.

"Julie said she was from 240 years later. The two of them happily talked about many interesting topics. Her father invented the time machine. Mark asked her if she came here often. Julie said: This is my favorite 'time coordinates'. Sometimes I stand here for hours and keep looking at this and that. The day before yesterday I saw a rabbit, yesterday was a deer, and today was you."

Mark and Julie talked about many topics and their respective lives. The two shared many common hobbies, although transcendentalism, Berkeryism and relativity were not suitable for a man and a girl to talk about on the hilltop of September, especially the man was forty-four years old, and the girl was only twenty-one, and Mark did not realize this until just now. Fortunately, the compensation was still behind. The two's pleasant discussion of transcendentalism not only led to the conclusions of "early" and "late", but also brought about the subtle spark in the girl's eyes; their criticism of Berkery not only emphasized the inherent defects inherent in the pious bishop's theory, but also made the girl's face redder; and their review of relativity not only proved that energy is indeed always equal to mass multiplied by the square of the speed of light, but also proved that knowledge is not an obstacle, it also attracts women's wealth.

In the following days, Mark would go to the mountain to meet Julie every day. However, one day, the girl did not come to the mountain. The girl did not come for several days.

Even so, Mark still went to see what he was looking forward to. God paid off. A few days later, he saw the girl - Julie's father passed away. Julie was heartbroken. Mark comforted Julie.

There was also a problem with the time machine. She didn't know how to replace the parts, and maybe she could only go on another trip.

"If I can't come, please remember-I love you!"

Julie confessed to a man who was over 20 years older than her.

Then Julie disappeared, Mark went to the hill every day, but the girl never appeared again. Mark sat on that granite for several hours, staring at the place where the girl disappeared.

The day before yesterday I saw a rabbit, yesterday I saw a deer, today I met you.

"What's in the end? Julie never shows up again? Mark continues to be with Anne?" Joan asked. Such an ending was regrettable, but he felt that it was just that.

My father didn't answer, so he took out a cigarette and prepared to lit it. After thinking about it, he put down the cigarette.

"Anne is Julie. Mark opened the suitcase that Anne had never asked him to open. What was inside was Julie's white dress he had seen. There was also a note on the dress: I saw a rabbit the day before yesterday, a deer yesterday, and today I met you."

"Breaking nonsense, if that's the case, why can't he recognize..." Qiao An stopped as he said.

Twenty years ago, Mark didn't know Julie, and Julie also did some things to avoid the police in time and space (her traveling through time is considered a smuggling, and the Time and Space Administration prohibited traveling).

Julie couldn't tell Mark her identity, because twenty years ago, Mark didn't know her at all, and twenty years later, she had grown old and no longer as young and beautiful as she used to be. Julie still wouldn't tell her identity, and Mark didn't recognize Julie at the first time - perhaps she never thought about that aspect, her wife, who had been married to her for twenty years, was a girl she knew only twenty years later, from 240 years later.

Twenty years ago and twenty years later, Mark loved the same person.

And the good thing is Mark's eternal love for Julie (Anne).

On the other hand, why did the person he loved so deeply "change his heart"? Can the plain warmth finally resist the sudden stimulation? Or did the plainness and boredom erase the once sincere love?

He looked at his father.

"In the end, how are Mark and Anne?" Joan knew in his heart that he would definitely be together, but he still confirmed to his father.

"They walked towards the house hand in hand..."

My father said something, then got up and went to the bedroom. I guess he should have gone to see Joan's mother.

At this moment, the animation happened to be played, and the familiar song of "Tuanzi Family" sounded.

Qiao An looked at him silently, and in the singing, he felt a feeling he had never had before. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
