After getting out of the car, Lu Zhen walked out of the station. When she reached the exit, there were not many people waiting in the hall. Lu Zhen immediately saw a woman in a knitted coat.
Jiang Nan was already 50 years old this year. The moment she saw Jiang Nan, Lu Zhen thought of a sentence. “Time has never lost to beauty.”
It turned out that true beauty would not be taken away by time, because true beauty did not only come from appearance, but also from a person’s temperament and self-restraint. From Jiang Fei’s appearance, it could be seen that the Jiang family had good genes in terms of looks.
Jiang Nan looked a little similar to Jiang Fei, but her facial features were even brighter.
Lu Zhen could imagine how beautiful Jiang Nan must have been when she was young.
Lu Zhen walked towards Jiangnan. Her aunt also saw her. The two of them slowly approached each other. When they faced each other, Jiang Nan’s expression was still indifferent. There was not much excitement, and it did not seem too cold. It was as if the two of them had been together for many years.
“Let’s go,” Jiang Nan said. Her voice was a little hoarse, but it was very charming.
Lu Zhen followed behind Jiang Nan. She did not expect this aunt she had never met to have such a personality. Although Jiang Nan looked very cold, Lu Zhen did not feel uncomfortable. Instead, she felt that the two of them were already very familiar.
Jiang Nan lived in a small villa. The villa looked old and there were traces of old age everywhere.
There were flowers planted in the courtyard of the villa, and the furnishings in the house were very simple. There was an exaggerated color carpet on the floor of the living room, and there were a few abstract wooden carvings on the coffee table. They must be local specialties.
Jiang Nan pointed to the second floor. “Your room is upstairs.”
Lu Zhen nodded and was about to carry her luggage upstairs when she suddenly realized something. She hurriedly looked at Jiang Nan and called out obediently, “Aunt.” Perhaps it was because Jiang Nan did not say anything that required Lu Zhen to reply, but Lu Zhen did not even call Jiang Nan ‘aunt’.
The corners of Jiang Nan’s lips curled up slightly. “You must be tired. Go upstairs and rest early.”
“Okay.” Lu Zhen carried her suitcase upstairs. Her room was not big, but she had a lot of daily necessities. When she opened the window, she could vaguely see a large grassland in the distance.
The scenery in the day must be very beautiful, Lu Zhen thought. When she got off the train, Lu Zhen informed Jiang Fei and the others that she was safe. She was a little tired now. After turning on her cell phone to say goodnight to Song Jia and the others, she rushed into the bathroom, took a simple shower, and lay on the bed.
Perhaps because she was too tired, she quickly fell asleep. When she woke up, the sun shone at the end of the bed. Lu Zhen pulled open the curtains and saw the scenery outside the window that she could not see clearly last night.
There was a small lake in the distance. This was the bluest and most beautiful lake Lu Zhen had ever seen. She could not describe what kind of blue it was. She felt that the blue purified her heart.
The vast grassland was like a carpet that was spread out. Occasionally, the figures of cows and sheep could be seen.
Lu Zhen watched for a while and was in a good mood. When she went downstairs, she saw Jiang Nan sitting on the sofa, making tea. The only Chinese-style tea set in the room was probably the tea set on the table.
Lu Zhen sat down and Jiang Nan pointed at the plate beside the table. “If you don’t like it, there’s a snack street outside.’
Lu Zhen picked up the food on the plate and stuffed it into her mouth. After taking two bites, she smiled and said, “It’s quite delicious. Did you make it yourself?”
“l only know how to make some simple tea.” Jiang Nan handed the brewed tea to Lu Zhen.
Western breakfast with Chinese tea. This breakfast was really a mix of styles. Lu Zhen sighed in her heart. She took the teacup and savored it.
After dinner, Jiang Nan led Lu Zhen out for a walk. The two of them walked up the mountain. At the end of the path was a very open hillside grassland. The rich green seemed to dye one’s eyes with the green that was filled with vitality and freedom.
Looking down from the hill, one could see the main road of the town. An old church stood in the middle of the low houses. The entire town looked like the place where a fairy tale happened.
Lu Zhen watched in fascination. Occasionally, the crisp sound of bull bells could be heard.
“It’s so beautiful. No wonder you’ve been here for so many years,” Lu Zhen sighed.
Jiang Nan smiled faintly, as if she had heard the other meaning in Lu Zhen’s words. She looked at the distant mountains and said, “People have to turn to dust. It’s the same everywhere..”
