Chapter 20 Don't be sad
The two of them put away their gifts, and they got together and chatted happily, of course, the one who talked a lot was still Doudou.
Yuan Xiang likes to listen to Doudou talk about her past life, and feels that listening to her sister is like reading her grandfather's travelogue, the content is far away from her own life, but it has endless attraction.
A few days ago, her mother hugged her and cried again, saying that her father was going to send her out of the house for treatment, and she would not be able to return home for about a few years. She was a little scared when she first heard the news, after all, since she was two years old and her father came to Hangzhou to take office, she has never left the house, and she can be said to know nothing about what the outside world is like.
But in addition to being afraid, there was more excitement in my heart. She has been well-read since she was a child, and the great rivers and mountains described in the poems and grandfather's travelogues have long been deeply reflected in her mind, and she doesn't know where her cousin and Uncle Mo will take her, but the Great Zhou is so big, and there are good mountains and rivers everywhere, so she can take a look at it in the process of hurrying, and she is also satisfied.
What she is most reluctant to do is her father and mother, although she has always been the one who has been taken care of when she grows so big, she can also feel that because of her survival, this home is like a home.
Thinking of this, Yuan Xiang carefully looked at Doudou, who was talking happily next to him, his sister is really beautiful, and the most important thing is that she is healthy, lively, and has a good heart, much better than herself.
My grandmother loved her, and I was unconsciously attracted to her, and I thought that my father and mother would like her too, and if she could stay at home after she left...... I don't know why Yuan Xiang felt sour in his heart.
Doudou soon noticed Yuan Xiang's strange appearance, and twisted his little hand a little embarrassedly and said: "Sister, is it that I talk too much and make you noisy, my aunt often says that I make her have a headache." ”
Yuan Xiang despised himself a little, how could his father and mother forget about themselves because of his sister's excellence, but listening to the meaning of his sister's words, it seems that she prefers a free and easy life, will she be willing to stay in her own home?
She mustered up the courage and said, "Sister, I'm going to leave Hangzhou Mansion in a few days, and I don't know when I'll be able to come back." ”
Doudou didn't pay much attention to it when Yuan Zheng and the old lady talked about it before, and when he heard that the sister he just met was going to leave in a few days, he couldn't accept it for a while.
"Why did you have to leave when I just came. She pursed her lips.
"Sister, this is going to seek medical treatment, can you ......" Yuan Xiang is not too clear about Doudou's life experience, and feels that his requirements are a bit difficult for strong people.
"Is my sister reluctant to let me go with you?" Doudou said as he touched his little chin.
Yuan Xiang was a little panicked, shook his head and said, "No, no, I want to ask my sister to stay at my house and accompany my father and mother for me......"
"Xiang'er, it's time for you to drink medicine and rest. A female voice interrupted Yuan Xiang's words, and saw Gu Chao walk in with a dissatisfied look, followed by Yuan Zheng, who wanted to speak and stopped.
In Gu Chao's opinion, she agreed to admit that this child of unknown origin was already very aggrieved, and she gave Yuan Zheng a lot of face. Not to mention that she also took out her patience to carefully select the meeting gift in the warehouse, but this little girl was too unfamiliar to take the initiative to come to the main room to give her a gift, and ran to Xiang'er's house by herself without her consent.
What was Xiang'er's expression just now? She was begging that little girl! Her Gu Chao's precious daughter was actually begging for a wild child!
Yuan Zheng didn't know what Gu Chao was thinking, so he quickly grabbed her arm and whispered, "What are you doing again! Don't scare the children." ”
Doudou was originally facing away from the door, and seeing that Yuan Xiang was so frightened by a sentence that she didn't dare to squeak, she turned her small body, but before she could see the face of the person who came clearly, Gu Chao's pair of jade hands that had just been coated with Kodan went straight into her eyes.
She didn't think there was anything nice about these long, sharp red nails, but if she was scratched like that, tsk, no wonder her father's face......
She was still in the fugue, and Yuan Xiang had already saluted her parents in a proper manner, "Xiang'er has seen her father and mother. ”
Yuan Zheng and Gu Chao didn't take care of their baby daughter for the first time in their lives.
Gu Chao was a little stunned when he saw Doudou's appearance, although he had heard that this little girl looked exactly like himself, but hearing and seeing were completely different concepts.
Since Yuan Zheng met Doudou, he likes to observe this little guy every time he meets, and at this time he found that she was a little distracted, so he followed her line of sight, and suddenly the corners of his mouth twitched, and the scratches on his face that were already not clear seemed to hurt again.
This girl is too different from ordinary people, ordinary children are a little trembling when they encounter such a situation, thinking that they should be well-behaved and sensible or something, and leave a good impression on their mother who met for the first time, but she ......
"Ahem...... Yuan Zheng coughed lightly twice, "Yuan'er, I haven't come to see my mother yet." ”
Doudou was not nervous at all, and came to the two of them with small steps and saluted, "Yuan'er has seen my father and mother. ”
Gu Chao came to his senses when he heard her voice, "Well, get up." After an understatement, she no longer bothered with Doudou, and beckoned the maids and daughters-in-law to feed Yuan Xiang with medicine, and waited for her to go to bed and lie down.
Yuan Zheng saw that she had such an attitude, and he was unspeakably disappointed and discouraged, this is the etiquette and upbringing of the eldest daughter of the head of the Zhou Dynasty in Gu Chao's mouth!
But what about her? She doesn't even bother to pretend, what does this mean? In her heart, her husband is actually nothing! He smiled self-deprecatingly, didn't she see these things clearly in the early years, and today she has convulsions again!
"Uncle...... Oh, father, I'm not sad, what are you sad about?" Doudou saw that Yuan Zheng's face was very ugly, and he pulled his sleeve and whispered.
Yuan Zheng squatted down and looked at Doudou at eye level, "Yuan'er is right, no matter what people who don't care about what they say or do, and what they do, there is really nothing to be sad about." ”
After saying that, he stood up and beckoned the red cotton trees to bring the prepared gifts, and smiled at Doudou: "Yuan'er, father knows that you have never loved these things, but this is our heart, let's see if you like it or not." ”
The most conspicuous thing on the tray is a red gold Yingluo collar, which is very dazzling, and the rest are also extremely delicate in workmanship, especially suitable for some small beads and small jewelry worn by a little girl of Doudou's age.
In addition, there are a few brightly colored materials, although Doudou can't say what kind of fabric, I also know that it is very rare and valuable.
"Thank you father and mother, Yuan'er likes it very much. After Doudou saw this "mother" with his own eyes, he felt that it was really not easy for his father, and he was very well-behaved.
What Yuan Zheng was most afraid of was that Doudou was hurt by Gu Chao's attitude, and seeing that she was still the same as before, he let go of most of his heart.
