Chapter Ninety-Five: Retreat
Tomorrow, Wednesday, Pei Shaobei did not mention going home. I was a little apprehensive in my heart, and I hesitated many times all night without asking, but I just took advantage of Pei Shaobei's bath to tidy up the things that my father had prepared for me some time ago and put them in the cabinet.
That night, Pei Shaobei didn't do anything to me, and still hugged me and slept deeply. After the nervousness of the afternoon and the venting of the evening, I was also a little tired at the moment, I touched my stomach with my hand, and listened to Pei Shaobei's voice in my ears, and my heart was extremely peaceful.
I didn't sleep all night, and Pei Shaobei still woke up before me. I smelled the fried eggs in a daze, and thought I was back to the days with my parents, and I sat on the bed for a long time without reacting.
Pei Shaobei wore a light blue loungewear around an apron, pushed the door in with a plate in his hand, saw me wake up, and asked with a smile, "Hungry, my fried eggs, taste it!"
Pei Shaobei rarely cooks, at least when he is with me, he hardly goes into the kitchen. So I'm a little uncomfortable with this kind of hospitality.
"What's the matter? I don't like to eat fried eggs?What about fried ham?toasted bread slices?I only seem to make so much, you don't want to eat everything, right?" Pei Shaobei raised his eyebrows helplessly when he saw that I didn't speak.
I shook my head hurriedly, "No, I'm just not used to it, why didn't you go to work in the morning?"
Pei Shaobei glanced at me, and said a little angrily, "Today Wednesday, you won't remember what you're going to do, right? Or are you going to pretend to be amnesia and continue to dodge?" Gu Wan, if you pretend to be amnesia, you won't change what you just said, otherwise the credibility will be greater, and now it's no fun!"
I couldn't cry or laugh, but there were ripples in my heart because of Pei Shaobei's words, I turned over and got out of bed, took the plate in his hand and replied, "I didn't pretend to have amnesia, I was just curious, why did you get up and cook!"
"Cheer you up!" Pei Shaobei followed behind me, and what he said was a matter of course. "You were so nervous yesterday, it must have been because of the pressure. I don't know how to comfort pregnant women, but people live on food, and my son and daughter-in-law must be no exception!"
"Who is your daughter-in-law? I talk nonsense when I get up in the morning!" I glanced back at Pei Shaobei, and as soon as I walked to the kitchen door, I smelled a burnt smell, and before I could ask back, Pei Shaobei had already rushed into the kitchen with an arrow, and then a wail sounded, "I'll go, I forgot to turn off the fire!"
I looked at the only intact egg on the plate and pinched it and stuffed it into my mouth. Although greasy and greasy things don't have much temptation for me at the moment, it has a different meaning when Pei Shaobei does it himself. This makes me know that Pei Shaobei cares no less than I care about him. And on the trip of the Pei family, he must also be on my side, which made me feel a little relaxed.
"You put it there, I'll clean it up!" I put the plate on the dining table, shouted to the kitchen, rolled up my sleeves and was about to go in, but I saw Pei Shaobei rushing out again, holding two plates in his hand at the same time, and raised it to me, "Fortunately, I saved it in time, it's not too bad, and you can still eat it!"
"Why?" I was puzzled. Pei Shaobei smiled mysteriously, "Let me tell you, my parents have never cooked, if you don't want to be hungry at noon today, you have to make good use of your hands, don't hurt your fingers because of distraction in the morning!"
"Ahh
"No, how can you be a guest!" Pei Shaobei stuffed the half-mushed ham into his mouth, swallowed the milk into his stomach, and then added, "You are my wife, naturally you are the Pei family's family, isn't it more meaningful to eat as a family and do it yourself?"
"Are you giving me a chance to perform?" I somewhat understood Pei Shaobei's intentions, but I had some indescribable feelings in my heart, and I was sullen.
"Cranky again, aren't you?" Pei Shaobei reached out and knocked my head with chopsticks, "Gu Wan, do you say that you literary and artistic little girls are all cranky?"
"What? You know a lot of girls like that?"
"Excuse me, one more of you is enough, two more, wouldn't I be angry with myself!" Pei Shaobei grinned exaggeratedly, I couldn't help but laugh when I was amused by him, and then blew away the depression just now.
I thought Pei Shaobei was changing the topic, but I didn't expect him to turn back by himself, "Zile and I haven't eaten my mother's cooking since we were children, do you believe it?"
Pei Shaobei's words made me slightly stunned, but I caught a flash of loneliness in his eyes.
"They're busy?" I said.
"Yes!" Pei Shaobei sighed softly, with a rarely low look on his face, "A diplomat, a big researcher, everyone has something to do! At that time, Zile and I saw the most not their faces but the servants at home. Zile was young at the time, clamoring for her mother, and I was a big man who could coax me, so I had to ask for help from a maid. Later, Zile became dependent on a servant who often coaxed him to sleep, and my mother felt that that kind of relationship was too dangerous, so she sent the person away directly behind Zile's back! Do you know that Zile locked himself in the house and cried for seven days because of this incident! Since then, he has been full of resentment and indifference to my mother!"
I couldn't help but hear in my mind the boy smiling shyly in the sun, and suddenly I understood that his inexplicable feelings for me were not the same as the servant, a kind of dependence?
"Zile's personality is already very introverted, because this matter has become more paranoid! My mother doesn't dare to care about him anymore, because as long as he cares, he will definitely develop in another bad direction. My brother is not careful, but I am still the one who accompanies him the most! So, the relationship between me and Zile is relatively deep, the last time he came to our house to say those words, I know you have been caring, I said these things, just to explain to you, Zile is not intentionally contradicting you. ”
I didn't know how to answer, but I heard Pei Shaobei laugh and say with a self-deprecating smile, "It may also be resisting me!"
I was shocked, and subconsciously replied, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could he resist you? It should be that I, the teacher, are not doing well!"
Pei Shaobei shook his head, "Wanwan, you don't understand, maybe you do, just pretend not to understand! You haven't seen Zile before, so you can't make a comparison." But I know very well that he already has some kind of dependence on you, and his reluctance to let you go to our house is not a denial of you, but a kind of protection!"
I turned my face away a little unnaturally, picked up the milk on the side and took a sip, feeling a little heavy in my heart.
Pei Shaobei smiled, "Okay, I've said everything that should be said, and there are no other good ideas! My parents are independent individuals to me, and I only use their opinions as a reference, and I am in charge of my own life, you don't have to care what they say or do." As for Zile,"
Pei Shaobei paused for a moment and sighed, "Alas, one step at a time!"
Pei Shaobei rarely dwells on a certain matter, but Pei Zile is the first one. It can be seen that he really cares about this younger brother and really protects it in his heart. I inexplicably thought of Yang Lian, the person who saw Pei Zile hugging me, if she picked this thing out and made everyone know about it, what would be the consequences? I was faintly afraid, and then felt a little remorse for my hostility towards her.
"What kind of expression do you have? Do you want to retreat?" Pei Shaobei's voice interrupted my conjecture, I hurriedly came back to my senses, shook my head and said, "I'm just thinking, what to eat at noon! To be honest, I can't touch a family like yours at all, and I probably can't get these home-cooked dishes on the table! Why don't you tell me what you eat on weekdays, I'll check and prepare in advance!"
"Home-cooked food is the best!" Pei Shaobei looked firm, "Let them see their lack of parents as human beings, and slap them in the face!"
Pei Shaobei said that he cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and went into the kitchen to wash, I was not too nervous, but at the moment he made me nervous. Go to Pei's house to cook, people like that haven't eaten anything delicious, what do I do? It's too good, it's too inferior, it's not on the table, is it difficult to stew ribs for them to make a fish?
I sighed, drank all the milk, got up to freshen up and put on makeup, and when I got out of the bathroom, Pei Shaobei was already picking out clothes in front of the cupboard.
"Which one am I wear?" I said, reaching out and tugging, a little confused.
"Ah, you are pregnant, how comfortable and how to dress!" Pei Shaobei chose clothes for himself, walked to the side and began to change. I was more confused than him, and I forgot to avoid suspicion, so I turned around and glared at him and asked, "Are you going to tell your parents about my pregnancy?"
"Of course, that's their grandson, of course I'll say! What is there to hide? Besides, isn't it even more speechless that you're pregnant? Could it be that you still let the descendants of the Pei family be left behind? As far as my grandfather knew, he also stripped them of their skins!"
Pei Shaobei had already put on his pants and said it very casually and naturally. A natural domineering, but also a little bit of gangsterism, which I have never seen before.
I had nothing to say for a while, my stomach was indeed a bargaining chip, but shouldn't this kind of bargaining chip be resisted by Pei Shaobei? Why has it become a kind of show-off at this moment? I have a lot of questions in my heart, but I don't know how to speak, seeing that Pei Shaobei has even changed his shirt, and is turning his head to look at me, I opened my mouth, but the words that I originally swallowed blurted out, "Won't your parents think that I am blackmailing you into marriage in that child?"
