Content excerpt:
In autumn dusk, sitting alone on the sofa smoking, watching the red light under the white ash of cigarette butts, slightly revealing the heating, my heart's mood will follow the blue smoke, just as relaxed and free. In a blink of an eye, the smoke turned into wisps and slowly disappeared, and at that moment, the mood in my heart was depressed in the world, so I didn't talk about the mood at that time, but only the mood at that time.
When I want to strike another match and light the cigar that has been lit three or four times, I can't light it because the white ash has accumulated too much. I just flick it and the ash falls quietly on the copper ridge. It's as silent as I write it on Chinese paper with a brush at this time, and there is no sound at all. Then I lit it up again, and I smoked in a mouthful, and the aroma was tangy, just like the emotional appeal of red leaning against Cui Xiang.
So I think of smoke, the warm heat of the smoke, the dim haze in the room, and the meaning of autumn.
2. The Park in Autumn contradicts
Excerpt:
Ordinary Shanghai citizens don't seem to feel the need for fresh air, green grass, shade, birds singing and so on. They also occasionally visit the park, which is the real thing: "going to the park"; Go around in a hurry and have a look at the zoo. Not even a tiger or a lion, disappointing! They left in a hurry.
Every afternoon, you can see the long-distance guests walking leisurely on the grass and whispering in the shade chairs. I dare say that Shi Jiu is a handsome couple in love, with almost no exception. Spring is the bud, summer is vigorous, and autumn is solid, which is the prelude to decline; After autumn, those handsome couples will be rare in the park, and they will gradually disappear.
