Chapter 179: Take Baoyu back to Xiliang
Seeing Xu Xiao enter the small courtyard, Lin Wan'er felt an ominous feeling in her heart, something serious will happen today, and this matter is something she can't bear, this King of Xiliang is going to take Baoyu away and bring it back to Xiliang, and she will never see Baoyu again.
Thinking of this, Lin Wan'er always felt sour in her heart, she still remembered that when she first came to the capital, Baoyu and Yubao cheered, chattering like two little birds, talking and jumping non-stop, very happy.
But as soon as the carriage left the city of Lanzhou, the sky darkened, and the sun was setting, and it was about to drown on the mountain, and the two children asked sadly: "Sister, you see that the sky is getting dark, let's go home!" ”
Lin Wan'er didn't know how to explain it, she knew that leaving familiar things and leaving the familiar environment, the two children were always a little sad and nostalgic in their hearts.
Lin Wan'er always feels annoyed by the two children on weekdays, but after the two children were abducted by Pan Renmei, she suddenly felt that her attachment to the two children was greater than the child's attachment to her.
She couldn't imagine what she would do if her two children weren't with her, or if one of them disappeared. King Xiliang is Baoyu's father, and his father wants to take the child home, but Lin Wan'er has no way and doesn't know how to stop it.
She squinted her eyes and looked at King Xiliang, her eyes were full of vigilance, Xu Xiao also looked back at Lin Wan'er, her eyes were faint, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.
But Lin Wan'er's momentum is obviously weaker, the other party is the prince, holding 300,000 Xiliang iron horses, and her prestige and domineering are famous in the Great Wei Kingdom, but these are not the reasons for her weak momentum, but she knows that she has no right to deprive Xu Xiao of her requirements, the most important thing is that she has no right to deprive a father of his reasonable rights, and she also knows that if she goes to Xiliang, maybe Baoyu will be safer.
She is also afraid that someone will stand up and explain the truth to herself, saying that she wants to focus on the society of the country and the mountains, which annoys Xu Xiao, the king of Xiliang, and the consequences are very strict, which is not good for the world and the peace of the country.
Lin Wan'er scolded in her heart: "What does the country care about me? But she had to let Baoyu go to Xiliang. If this is the case, she will hate this Great Wei State, hate the things and people who separated her from Baoyu, and finally hate herself, but what can she do?
She is not a generous person, but a stingy and selfish person, but in this matter, she knows that she must be generous, and she can only be generous.
Blood is thicker than water, and she can't cut it.
Zhao Qian walked into the hall with a big watermelon, saw that the atmosphere in the room seemed to be a little wrong, coughed twice, put the watermelon on the table, waved the kitchen knife, and collided with each other to make a crisp sound, click, split in half.
Watermelon is a good watermelon, with thin skin and flesh, and juicy splashing, which not only quenches thirst, but also will be very sweet.
Zhao Gan took out a piece and handed it to Lin Wan'er, on weekdays, Lin Wan'er nibbled on watermelon regardless of her image, she was as bold as she wanted, but today she was holding the watermelon, stunned, picking watermelon seeds with her fingers, looking as languishing as she wanted.
Xu Xiao said lightly: "Miss Wan'er, your recent injuries are almost healed, right?" ”
Lin Wan'er nodded indifferently: "Thank you for your concern." ”
Xu Xiao smiled, didn't say much, looked up at the small courtyard, he and Su Su discussed together, after the world is decided, what kind of small courtyard should be purchased, the scene described is very similar to the Lin family's small courtyard, the front is the hall, there is a table in the hall, the left guest room, the right kitchen, there is a small stove in the kitchen, the yard is not big, but there should be a swing, there is a water tank in the center of the small courtyard, and there are a few small fish in the water tank......
At this moment, Qingzhu Niang and Yang Erxi led Baoyu and Yubao to push the door home, and the two children were full of snacks in their hands, talking and laughing, so lively.
As soon as they looked up and saw the scene in the hall, Qingzhu Niang and Yang Erxi were obviously stunned, although they had some contact with Xu Xiao, but the two of them always had some shadows in their hearts, and they were in awe of this king with a different surname from the bottom of their hearts.
Not only the two of them, but everyone in the Lin family's courtyard seemed to have a natural sense of awe for Xu Xiao. Xu Xiao sat there like a high mountain, heavy, grandiose, I couldn't bear to look at it directly, but I didn't dare to look at it directly, and I couldn't ignore it.
But Baoyu and Yubao don't think so, Xu Xiao's senses have always stayed so-so, it is common to love to answer and ignore them, it is polite to say a sentence or two, and play for an hour or two, which is a "gift" to Xu Xiao.
When the two children saw that the eldest sister had been able to get up, they ran over with a roar, and wanted to lie down in Lin Wan'er's arms, but suddenly remembered that the eldest sister was just getting seriously ill, so they immediately stopped their pace, stretched out the snacks in their hands, and let the eldest sister taste them first.
Lin Wan'er reached out to touch this, and then touched that, and her mind suddenly returned to Lanzhou.
At that time, Baoyu and Yubao were still young, and the family didn't have much money, Lin Wan'er tied the two children to her body, led Dabao, and begged for milk from door to door while selling tofu.
Later, the two children began to babble, from being able to walk to running, every small step they took was a big step in Lin Wan'er's heart.
She still remembered that the two children learned to walk for the first time, and they only dared to walk by the wall, one in front and one in the back, with small steps, like two little chicks, walking towards Lin Wan'er.
The first children from other families learn "mom, dad", and the first thing the two children learn is "big sister".
Before the crossing, Lin Wan'er's cold heart, which had been sealed for a long time, began to slowly thaw under the care and infection of a large family of brothers, eliminating the wind and frost, until the first spring breeze was ushered in, and then facing the sea, the spring flowers bloomed.
Baoyu and Yubao are inseparable from Lin Wan'er, and Lin Wan'er is even more inseparable from Baoyu and Yubao.
Xu Xiao looked at Baoyu with gentle eyes, thinking in his heart, "Susu, I will take Baoyu home immediately, and our family will be reunited", so he said: "Miss Wan'er, this king wants to take Baoyu home." ”
Although she had already guessed the intention of King Xiliang, Lin Wan'er's heart couldn't help but twitch, as if she was squeezed hard by a big hand, she couldn't speak, lowered her head and took a bite of the watermelon in her hand, chewed it hard, and tried to swallow it downward, but she didn't swallow it into her stomach, she could only open her mouth slightly, only to find that her voice was hoarse and speechless, and finally nodded mechanically stiffly, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence to what Xu Xiao said.
Baoyu's eyes widened, his face was full of incredulity, he didn't understand what was wrong with the eldest sister, why did he follow this old man back to what home, isn't his home here, and besides, without the eldest sister's home, what kind of home is it.
He stretched out his hand and pulled the corner of Lin Wan'er's clothes, and asked, "Eldest sister, what's the matter?" ”
Lin Wan'er rubbed her throat and sighed, not daring to look at Baoyu's eyes: "Baoyu, cough cough, there is something I want to sue you, after listening to it, you can't cry, you can't complain about the eldest sister, the eldest sister knows that you have also seen something, but I haven't said it, and I don't bother to explain it to you, but I can't say it today." Chen Nuonuo is right, there are some things that can't be hidden from you just because you are young, and when you should be sued, you should be sued. ”
Baoyu seemed to know something, his eyes were already overflowing with tears, he was surprisingly angry, he threw the snacks in his hands on the ground, covered his ears with his hands, shook his head, and shouted: "I don't listen, I don't listen......"
Baoyu thought that he would be able to understand the matter by sprinkling it, rolling on the ground, and whoever dared to touch him would bite him to death, but seeing the expression of the eldest sister, he knew that no matter how insistent he was, he couldn't stop himself from knowing certain things and then obeying certain decisions.
When Baoyu quieted down, Lin Wan'er pulled Baoyu's shoulder: "Baoyu, your mother's name is Bai Su, and your father is him." Lin Wan'er said as she pointed at Xu Xiao: "The only one in the Great Wei Kingdom with a different surname, King Xiliang Xu Xiao, you are not surnamed Lin, your surname is Xu." ”
Those who knew Baoyu's background couldn't help but sigh, and they couldn't say anything in shock if they didn't know Baoyu's background.
Baoyu's eyes were overflowing with tears, embedded in his eyes, falling down one by one, he didn't know how to accept it, he was afraid that after the matter was clarified, he turned around and found that he was no longer standing next to the eldest sister, but standing opposite the eldest sister, separated by something, and never going back.
The distance does not measure the emotion, it will only make the emotion indifferent, or more indestructible, but the distance between the soul will make the distance between two people farther and farther.
Lin Wan'er wiped Baoyu's tears and continued: "Baoyu, now your father wants to take you home, the eldest sister can't stop you, but the eldest sister will always be your eldest sister, you have to be obedient and can't lose your temper when you go to Xiliang." ”
As she spoke, she also cried: "Isn't this a bastard and nonsense? Baoyu, should the eldest sister fight, even if she can't fight, she should bite them, but Baoyu is useless. ”
Baoyu wiped her tears for the eldest sister, turned her head to look at Xu Xiao, and said categorically: "I want to stay in Shangjing, stay with the eldest sister, and I won't go." ”
On weekdays, Xu Xiao gets along with the two children, always nodding his head and bowing, as humble as he wants, he will be as humble as he wants, but today his mind has been set up and he will not back down, he said with a smile: "No, you must go back to Xiliang with me." ”
A father and son are stubborn and stubborn, and no one can convince anyone, so they can only get stuck with each other and be tough on each other.
"This king came today to take away Baoyu, and he didn't clearly mark the price with Miss Wan'er, reasoned, talked about the conditions, and discussed how much price he needed to take away Baoyu, which shows that this king values the Lin family very much, and he admits it in his heart, and he doesn't want to use the transaction to stain the Lin family's feelings for Baoyu. But this king also promised Su Su that he would maintain a good home, so this king must take Baoyu away. One day, one day later, the king came to pick up Baoyu. ”
After speaking, Xu Xiao stood up and walked out of the Lin family's courtyard without looking back.
Wei Song wanted to say a few words, but in the end he closed his mouth and left with his father-in-law.
Walking on the road, Xu Xiao sighed faintly: "Today, this wicked man is not happy at all. ”
Wei Song smiled: "My father-in-law is still soft-hearted, otherwise he wouldn't have waited for Baoyu to come home, and he wouldn't have said so much." ”
Xu Xiao stopped, put one hand on the handle of the Xiliang knife, and shook his head: "Hey, there is no way to have both worlds." ”
In the small courtyard of the Lin family, there was still silence for a while, and everyone was thinking about their own thoughts.
Baoyu hadn't woken up from the shock, she just looked at the eldest sister and asked blankly, "Eldest sister, can I not leave?" ”
"I can't." Lin Wan'er said categorically, and then reached out and stroked Baoyu's head three times.
Baoyu shook her head and shook off the hand that the eldest sister put on her head, her little face was still full of tears: "I hate you!" Then he ran back to his room without looking back.
Qingzhu Niang wanted to go into the house to comfort Baoyu, but was stopped by Lin Wan'er: "Sister Qingzhu, don't go, let him think about it by himself and be quiet." Although Baoyu people are small, they have mature personalities and will definitely be able to know our hardships. ”
Baoyu ran back to the room alone, then slammed the door shut, picked up his sleeve and wiped the tears on his face, and his little face was full of nervousness.
He ran under the bed, took out a small box, then took out a few pieces of clothes in the closet, took out all his pocket money, and finally sorted out the clothes, pocket money and small box into a big bag, and secretly stuffed it under the bed.
He had a resolute face and a firm look in his eyes, and when he had done these things, he climbed back into bed, cried for a while, and when it was dark, he decided to run away from home.
At dinner, the family didn't dare to speak, Lin Wan'er listlessly pulled out two bowls of rice and dragged into the room.
Lying on the bed, staring at the thread on the pillow in front of her, Lin Wan'er tossed and turned, and when it gradually got dark, Lin Wan'er didn't feel sleepy, but her eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and she seemed to be about to release light.
When the night gradually got dark, Lin Wan'er got up from the bed with difficulty, sneakily sorted out a small baggage, and wanted to walk out of the door, but she was afraid of startling the grass and snakes, so she got out of the window in the room.
Climbing over the courtyard wall, she accidentally fell to the ground, gasped in pain, squatted on the ground and shouted: "Baoyu, Baoyu, Yubao, Yubao......"
After waiting for a while, Lin Wan'er's two little heads emerged from the corner and shouted at Lin Wan'er, "Sister, is it you?" ”
"It's me, it's me." Lin Wan'er hurriedly replied.
The three of them gathered together, and Lin Wan'er touched Baoyu's head with great satisfaction: "Yes, yes, I touched my head three times today, and I knew what the eldest sister meant, I was afraid that you would run to my room during the third watch." ”
Lin Wan'er once told the story of "Journey to the West" to the two children, in which the Bodhi ancestor knocked Sun Wukong three times, and he knew that the third watch went to the master's room.
In the dark, Baoyu asked, "Sister, where are we fleeing?" ”
Lin Wan'er thought about it, and finally made a hasty decision: "Let's flip a coin." ”
The next day, the Lin family's courtyard exploded again, and Lin Wan'er, Baoyu and Yubao disappeared again. R1152
