62. Contradictions

Wan'er helped me once, I really want to thank her, but there are so many people in front of me, especially my mother called me in and asked again, all day long they were like farts and worms with me, seeing that I was hot to take off my clothes, I was worried about the wind, and asked a few people to come forward to persuade, saw me stretching my waist, I suspected that I was tired, so I came over to rub my shoulders and beat my waist, I sat still, after a while, someone also came to ask "It's not good to sit for a long time, the lady gets up and walks", and also comes to change tea, change incense, Fruit change point, charcoal furnace, watch seal... I was already exhausted from dealing with them, and I couldn't find a good time to talk to Wan'er privately.

Wei Huan is friendly with me, I was still counting on her to support people for me, but who knew that this guy was the one who led the group of people, because she was the closest to me, so it was the most annoying to take care of people, and others annoyed me to send it away, she came to take care of me, and this matter went in an infinitely weird direction.

If you talk about my heart, I am very willing in my heart, and I don't want her to be so diligent, willing or unwilling, for the same reason. But at the moment my will does not work, because whether I want to or not, when Wei Huan glared at those eyes—now I prefer to call them bright eyes—and frowned, revealing a look that seemed to be aggrieved but was actually arrogant, I took her out of the way, so I had to sit with my head bowed, let her be by my side for a while, fold the handkerchief, feed me a snack every other while, and then pick up the tea bowl and serve me to drink water. pretending to be well-behaved, and making a willing appearance on his face, the result was that he didn't move at lunch, and in the evening, his stomach was even more swollen than at lunch—but at dinner, my father was in better health, and he called Li Rui and I to have a meal.

When Li Rui heard that his father gave him food, he rushed out with a meteor, and it was not an exaggeration to say that the momentum was a tiger descending the mountain. But I made a rare graceful gesture, stopping one step at a time, and moving in with a sad face. The culprit, Wei Huan and Wei Siniang, not only did not have any guilt, but also had the face to ask me, "What's wrong with you?"

I gave her a blank look and raised my arm out, but she didn't understand what I meant, so she just asked, "What's wrong? ”

I said angrily, "You're so clever that you can't see what I mean?"

Wei Huan shook his head honestly: "I don't understand." I was half angry to death, so I had to put my arm into her hand and said fiercely: "Help!"

Wei Huan sighed, supported my elbow with both hands, couldn't take a step, and suddenly asked, "Didn't you eat too much, did you hold on?"

I squinted at her, and saw that the surprise on her face gradually turned into amusement, but I didn't dare to laugh, that kind of face changed, it was really indescribable, she held it for a while, but the corners of her mouth were raised, and she coughed with her hand over her mouth, and then asked me with a smile: "You little nerd, you eat too much, why don't you tell me?" I see that you eat happily, and I thought you were very hungry. ”

I was indeed happy to eat, but I could not say this, besides, she followed me all day, didn't she know how much I ate, in one day, fed me ten plates of things, this is still called very hungry? I was not very happy to look at her, she was shrewd, and when she saw that I was not happy, she put one hand on my back and coaxed: "Okay, okay, it's mine, didn't Your Majesty just train us today? If you are not more attentive, if you attract someone's eyes, say a word to your Majesty, we have all suffered, are you happy?" ”

I snorted and said, "You feed me like this, and when you can't eat dinner, A-Niang won't ask?" You still say I'm stupid, I think you're really stupid." ”

Wei Huan's face turned white in an instant, the hand that helped me shook, and I stopped unconsciously, I was embarrassed to see her scared like this, and hurriedly said: "I coax you, I have always disliked these big meat and fishy things, and if I wait down, I just think that the things are not delicious, and A-Niang will go over." "Ancient and modern Chinese and foreign parents have one thing in common, that is, they always have an inexhaustible heart for their children, don't look at the mother's weight in the court, when it comes to me and Li Rui, it is really no matter how big or small, pay attention everywhere, I didn't care in the past, but now there are many careful things that can't be taught to my mother, so I am very distressed. Especially when Li Rui is out of the cabinet again, his mother can't take care of him like before, so she cares about me wholeheartedly, and even asks about small things like how much I ate at a meal and how many hours I slept at night, which is really distressing.

Wei Huan was comforted by me, his face was a little better, and he sent me to the main hall ten steps away. I went in slowly, saluted half-seriously, looked up and saw my father, I was startled, I didn't see him for a few days, he lost a lot of weight, although there were eunuchs for him to tidy up, but still exuded a gray decadence, seeing me and Li Rui, the spirit was a little better, told us to go in front of him, held one in one hand, and asked with a smile: "Is my son well-behaved recently?" I heard that your writing has made great progress?"

I wasn't sure if my father knew about me reading the congratulatory watch for my mother, so I said vaguely: "It's all taught by Shangguan talents." Speaking of Wan'er, I subconsciously looked around, I don't know if she would stand out from some corner and nod to me, but I didn't see her.

My mother seemed to know who I was looking for, and said lightly: "Monk Fa Mingjin dedicated three volumes of translated scriptures, and I asked Shangguan Cairen to copy them." ”

Today I have been with Wan'er, knowing that she prepared two fu for her mother in one day, more than ten poems, has been exhausted, and then copy the scriptures at night, it is really hard, I think she helped me in the morning, so I said to my mother tentatively: "It's too late to copy the scriptures, it's too wasteful of lamps and candles, it's better to wait for tomorrow to ask her to copy it." ”

When Wan'er was mentioned, my father didn't speak, but my mother looked at me with interest and smiled: "What you spent overnight, I don't know that it is dozens of times the cost of copying scriptures, but it's strange that people waste lamps and candles by copying scriptures, huh?"

I was so panicked by her "um" that I looked at my face and said: "Didn't A-Niang say in the morning that we should be thrifty? ”

Mother smiled and raised her hand as if inadvertently, she had just dyed her nails, and her ten fingers were bright red, like a peony.

Mother seemed to like this color very much, and her eyes remained glued to her hand until her father spoke, but she did not lift it even a minute.

The father frowned and called, "Qi Niang." The mother raised her eyes lazily, one eye half divided into his gaze, but most of her mind was still on her fingernails. She has always liked to make up her makeup, and although she has given birth to three children, her face always looks like she is twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and her makeup today is more prosperous than ever, and her nails are as delicate and moist as peach and plum.

My father lowered his head by her, and after a long time, he sighed: "I've been here long enough, so I'll go to Luozhou in the next few days." ”

Li Rui and I glanced at each other and arched our hands: "Yes." ”

At this time, the mother finally forgot her nails, looked up lazily, and said, "It's better to leave tomorrow." ”

The father sighed again and said, "Whatever you want." ”
