Golden Greenery

Lake Constance is clear and green, and the water is as bright as a mirror. The sun is shining and the clouds are like fluff. The Alps are reflected in the water, slightly rippled by the sunlight, like broken diamonds flowing in the mountains.

The crystal clear lake surface is connected to the sky, and at first there are distinct shades of light and shade. As the distance goes further, the water and the sky become hazy together, leaving only a white trace of the intersection of water and sky. The small town of Bregenz is impeccably beautiful.

Zhuo Yang, Kou Kou, and Kou Kou's father and Kou Kou's mother walked together in the alleys and waterside of Bregenz. This situation, this person, this situation, should have been a warm and beautiful picture, but Zhuo Yang and Kou Kou regretted it very much.

You shouldn't have to drag the old couple along.

In fact, they are not even an old couple. Uncle Frank and Aunt Matilda are both only 48 years old this year, so they are still middle-aged. The two were once classmates at Trinity College, Cambridge, and fell in love when they were in college.

Kou Kou said that Kou's father and Kou's mother have a very good relationship. They love each other from the bottom of their hearts and are by no means superficial harmony.

.

On the side of the small street paved with large red and yellow blocks, a fat Austrian lady poked her friendly eyes out of the window and looked at everyone passing by. On the windowsill, which she regarded as a small shelf, there were many strawberry milkshakes in transparent boxes.

Seven or eight bright red strawberries were crowded in the box, covered with a thick layer of crimson jam, and the white milkshake melted into the red, which looked like beautiful love.

Mom said, "Frank, the strawberries look delicious."

Dad Ko raised a finger in agreement: "I think you are absolutely right."

After saying that, Dad Kou bought a box of beautiful strawberries and smiled at the fat aunt and nodded. Koko held her two little pink fists happily in front of her chest and jumped up to her mother's side.

Papa Kou picked up a strawberry with a small fork, and deliberately let it have enough jam and milkshake. The gentle gesture of feeding Kou Ma and the loving look in his eyes can melt the ice and snow of the Alps.

Ko's mother happily chewed the strawberry, her mouth twitching with sweetness, and then she and Ko's father turned around and left. gone……

Koko was still waiting for the strawberry with her mouth wide open.

The happy couple seemed not to notice the existence of their daughter at all, and just walked away sweetly, feeding each other strawberries as they walked.

Zhuoyang quickly went and bought a box.

He and Kou Kou have black lines at both ends, one for you and one for me. They eat each other until their mouths are full of dregs. It is not romantic or sweet at all.

.

Koko held her mother's hand, like a happy bird, chirping and pointing at the beautiful scenery on both sides and saying something. The mother listened very attentively. The young Aunt Matilda and her daughter were together like a pair of sisters.

Koko was still happily describing the scenery of the lakes and mountains, but her mother let go of her hand at some point. When she realized it, her mother's hand was already intertwined with her father's.

Kou's mother leaned on Kou's father's shoulder, and the two of them walked forward slowly. Kou's mother listened intoxicated to her husband's magnetic bass, which was like a low voice singing.

Kou Kou: "..."

Zhuo Yang hurriedly said: "Pull me, pull me..."

Kou Kou and Zhuo Yang's hands were clasped together and kept swinging, like a swing with force, Kou Kou's mouth was so pouted that it could tie a donkey. Looking at the backs of her parents leaning against each other in the sunshine, she seemed to want to throw the swing apart.

.

The lakeside restaurant has delicious food and colorful gins.

The light wind blows from the lake and kisses people's cheeks. The summer wind brings the taste of love. Soft music came from not far away, the violin was playing melodiously.

The four of them ate quietly, and time seemed to go very slowly. The picture is so beautiful, as beautiful as an oil painting.

Kou Ma gently put down the knife and fork without making any sound of collision.

"Frank, it's so beautiful here. Why don't we toast to celebrate such beauty?"

Dad Kou also put down his knife and fork without making a single sound.

He smiled and said, "Okay, cheers."

Kou Kou happily grabbed the cup filled with gin, and Zhuo Yang quickly dropped his knife and fork and grabbed a napkin to wipe his mouth first.

Kou's father and Kou's mother slowly approached with narrowed eyes. His and her faces touched each other gently, and they were intimate.

The dimples on the faces of Father Kou and Mother Kou were touching each other, dimples touching dimples, and they were toasting.

Koko held up the cup and messed it up in the breeze. Zhuoyang swallowed a big mouthful of jelly with a "gu dong" sound.

.

It's still early, but the sun always wants to kiss the Alps. Slowly, a golden line was outlined on the edge of the mountains, and the sunlight sprayed out from the gaps between the valleys, like flying veils in the air.

The color of Lake Constance changes from blue to indigo, as if a huge sapphire is quietly embedded at the foot of the mountain.

The long trestle stretched into the middle of the lake. Zhuo Yang and Kou Kou, Uncle Frank and Aunt Matilda were sitting on the bench at the end of the trestle, intoxicated in the silence.

Life is always busy, so busy that it becomes a sin to let time pass by like this. But people seem to have forgotten that this kind of laissez-faire, a moment of indifference to the passage of time, is the true meaning of life.

All the busyness is to have a moment of your own time to solidify.

Kou Ma said: "It's so beautiful, so beautiful that nothing can be said about it."

Kou Kou said: "It's as beautiful as a poem."

Zhuo Yang said: "It's as beautiful as music, like dreamy piano music."

Dad stared at Mom affectionately: "It's as vast as a mirror, with shimmering waves. Matilda, this kind of beauty can't be compared to one ten thousandth of yours. You are my most beautiful scenery."

Mom and Dad looked at each other: "Frank, I love you."

Kou Kou: "..."

The corners of Zhuoyang's mouth and eyes twitched together.

Kou's father and Kou's mother had already kissed each other as if no one else was watching.

.

Throughout the whole day, Zhuo Yang and Kou Kou had this unexpected dog food splashed on their faces again and again, and their hearts were filled with difficulty.

When Kou Kou and Zhuo Yang were alone together, they were like paint and glue, and their disgusting love words came one after another. But in front of her parents, Kou Kou still had to wear a little cotton-padded jacket, and it was not easy for her to appear too close to Zhuo Yang.

This is especially true for Zhuo Yang. How can a Chinese child get into a knot with his wife in front of his parents? They will unconsciously abide by the rules.

The two of them spent most of the day holding their arms together, holding hands and intertwining their fingers until they were on top of each other. But Kou's father and Kou's mother were really wandering in love this day, and there was no one else in their eyes. There was no daughter or son-in-law.

As we walked, Kou and Kou often kissed each other without any warning, and the kisses were so breathtaking. After the kiss, their eyes still looked at each other affectionately. Dad Kou held Mom's face and gently wiped the corners of her mouth with his fingers.

Zhuo Yang and Kou Kou were not here for an outing at all, or they were just here to be fed dog food one after another, and their parents spread free dog food all over the place.

Love should be so beautiful.
