Ye Jiu wore the white dress and looked out of the window at the parasol tree.
The reason why she liked the parasol tree was not because it was the place where she had arranged to meet Chu Huai.
Instead, she remembered that there was such a parasol tree planted in the old Ye family's house in the countryside.
When she was young, she liked to sit under the parasol tree and listen to her grandmother tell her stories.
Her grandfather would prune the branches in the flowerbed at the side.
Occasionally, when the water splashed under the parasol tree, her grandmother would scold him.
He just laughed, as if her scolding was the source of his happiness.
When she grew up, she would naughtily would climb up the parasol tree to see if there was really a phoenix landing on the thick branches.
Although she had fallen from the tree a few times, it did could not stop her desire to explore.
The parasol tree carried her beautiful childhood.
