Jia Mu remained silent. The summer knew he was surprised, how could he not be? Jia Mu said: “I am an orphan, with no parents, no siblings, all blood is scattered in the water, and I have no concept. This child, what I value most are these two brothers. They didn’t ask for any conditions, nothing to do with me, but they are dead. I have never been safe, and after these two brothers left the world, I discovered after so many years that I survived by relying on them. Except for them, no one truly loved me, and no one truly needed me. They are not here, and this child will also pass. Life is only about having someone love you. I’m not used to loving others first because I have nothing, so I always hope others can give me something. But as a man, no one will give anything to a man for no reason. The world most understands me are these two brothers, who used the most sincere way to make me happy. They did it. Only those who haven’t experienced these things would say that living people can’t live with the dead, look to the future, and live their own lives. These words don’t apply to me.”
Jia Mu said: “It’s okay, you can listen as you like, just treat it as a chat.”
The tea was truly fragrant. The tea leaves were slightly bitter, so the bitter taste was heavy. Like the three teas outside the family, the first, second, and third tastes seemed to have reached their flavor. Unexpectedly quickly, he didn’t expect the future to be so short. Drinking too quickly, hot to the head, the summer opened his mouth, looking like he was laughing. And he was indeed laughing.
