Chapter Seventy-Eight: Wounded
The back of her head was a little sore, Zhang Lingxi begged Zang Xia to help her move a recliner, and looked up quietly at the night under the window alone. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Liu Xian stopped at the door for a while, and when he saw that Zhang Lingxi had not fallen asleep, he walked in.
Zhong Zi was originally following closely behind Liu Xian, but when he saw Liu Xian entering without knocking on the door, he immediately squeezed his eyes at Zang Xia and let Zang Xia come out quietly.
Liu Xian had already walked behind Zhang Lingxi, and she was still looking up at the sky unconsciously.
The long eyelashes blinked gently, the eyes were dark, and the bottom of the eyes seemed to be full of concern.
Liu Xian looked at the emotion in Zhang Lingxi's eyes, and was reluctant to interrupt for a long time, until Zhang Lingxi retracted his eyes, Liu Xianfang said: "Sister Xi, I'm late." β
Zhang Lingxi turned around when he heard this, smiled at Liu Xian, and said, "Brother Xian, are you here?" She subconsciously wanted to stand up, and when she strained, she let out an oops.
She didn't realize at all that it was late at night, and Liu Xian deliberately came to her for a trip.
"Does it hurt badly?" Liu Xian squatted down nervously, looked at Zhang Lingxi's legs and asked. What he did was very natural, and Zhang Lingxi didn't figure out anything else.
She had a thin blanket over her legs, one of the corners of which hung from the ground. Zhang Lingxi put the blanket on his body and replied: "It doesn't hurt so much anymore, but I can't move around, and I feel stuffy and panicked." β
Liu Xian did not hide the distress in his eyes: "I will help you find out." β
"Well, thank you, Brother Xian." Zhang Lingxi smiled lightly and said, "I've caused you trouble again." β
"It's not your fault, why bother with yourself. If you don't want to cause me trouble, then when I find out who did it, you should be decisive, and don't forget it as easily as last time. Liu Xian hesitated for a moment, and said in a barely audible voice in Zhang Lingxi's ear: "What's more, I hope to be by your side all the time and clean up the trouble for you." β
Zhang Lingxi didn't hear the sound outside the strings, and said with an embarrassed smile: "I'm already in big trouble, and Brother Xian doesn't even think I'm troublesome." β
"Don't think too much about it, it's not the trouble you're looking for. If I had cleaned it up for you in the morning, it wouldn't hurt you. Liu Xian said reproachfully.
Zhang Lingxi was keenly aware of the change in Liu Xian's mood, and said, "Brother Xian didn't let me think much about it just now, but you blamed yourself. There are so many things I wouldn't have been able to do without you. β
"Rest early, if you have anything to say, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Liu Xian obviously wanted to say something to Zhang Lingxi, but seeing that the night was dark, he couldn't stay any longer, so he stood up and said.
"Brother Xian also rests early." Zhang Lingxi is always very well-behaved in front of Liu Xian. "Can you help me call Zangxia in?"
Zhang Lingxi pointed to his leg in embarrassment.
Without Zangxia's help, she couldn't move to the side of the bed by herself.
Liu Xian scratched his head and said, "Wait a minute, I'll help you call her." After saying that, Liu Xian strode out, and turned back after a while.
Zhang Lingxi looked at him puzzled, and Liu Xian explained: "Zang Xia didn't guard at the door, I went to my cousin's place, and there was no one, I don't know where they went." β
It wasn't to give Zhang Lingxi and Liu Xian a little space, Zhong Zi gathered all the people in Zhuangzi together, far away from Liu Xian and them.
"That's going to be hard." Zhang Lingxi gritted his teeth and said. "Or, Brother Xian, you can help me, and I'll see if I can stand up."
"How did Zangxia move you here?" Liu Xian asked.
Zhang Lingxi's face turned red, and he didn't say a reason for a long time.
Liu Xian saw Zhang Lingxi's youngest daughter in his eyes, the corners of his mouth raised, he hugged Zhang Lingxi horizontally, and asked cheekily, "Is this how Zangxia moved you here?" β
Liu Xian's inquiring expression was extremely serious, and Zhang Lingxi really couldn't think that Brother Xian was deliberately taking advantage of her.
Although she felt that Liu Xian was unintentional, the touch between the two was much more intimate than a simple hug at that time, and such a skin-to-skin blind date made Zhang Lingxi's face red like a ripe pomegranate.
She felt so embarrassed that she never dared to lift her head.
It seems like a short road, as if my brother is walking very slowly and long.
The face inadvertently touched Brother Xian's chest, and Zhang Lingxi's heart was about to jump out.
There was a warm smell on Brother Xian's body, as if it was hot, as if his body was completely unaffected by the cold of late autumn.
Brother Xian, he doesn't look like a normal person, like a, like a charcoal stove. The flame doesn't seem to be the kind that is very strong, but it's always warm, and no matter how cold it is in other places, as long as it's in Brother Xian's place, it won't feel cold.
Zhang Lingxi couldn't help but think about it, only to feel that her body was empty, and her brother had already put her on the bed.
"Sleep." Liu Xian pulled the quilt over and spread it out for Zhang Lingxi to cover.
"Shall we have breakfast together tomorrow?" Zhang Lingxi saw that Liu Xian was leaving, and asked hurriedly.
"Well, I'll let the kitchen cook your favorite dishes."
"Brother Xian, wait a minute, I have a question for you." Zhang Lingxi called out to Liu Xian.
Liu Xian looked back suspiciously, looking at Zhang Lingxi's cautious appearance, Liu Xian had something important to say when Zhang Lingxi was there.
I saw Zhang Lingxi's mouth muttering, and he gestured with a red face: "Brother Xian, will you and Fang Xiu be like this?" β
"Huh?" Liu Xian didn't know why Sister Xi suddenly mentioned Fang Xiu.
Zhang Lingxi saw that Liu Xian didn't understand, and gestured again: "That's it, like just now." It's you... You hug me like that. β
Liu Xian smiled, wondering why Sister Xi would ask such a strange question.
"Could it be?"
"No, it won't."
After Liu Xian answered, Zhang Lingxi nodded reassuringly and whispered, "I know that Brother Xian is a measured person." β
"What?"
"Nothing." Zhang Lingxi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's not too early, Brother Xian, let's go and rest." I'm sleepy too. β
Immediately close your eyes.
Liu Xian smiled, Sister Xi is a child in the end, and she is serious with her, but she is naughty.
Zhang Lingxi was thinking about Liu Xian's hug in the bed, and he was throbbing inexplicably.
Probably, I haven't been hugged for a long time, so that's why it's like this.
But why did he suddenly ask Brother Xian such a question, how far had the relationship between him and Fang Xiu developed, and he didn't do anything with her.
Probably, I was worried that Brother Xian would fall too deeply, so I asked.
Brother Xian is so good, if he is injured because of Fang Xiu, it will be so distressing.
Poor brother Xian, on one side is Zhong Zi's cousin, and on the other side is Fang Xiu. He not only has to take care of his cousin here, but he also silently pretends to be Fang Xiu in his heart.
She also thinks that only a woman with the appearance and virtue of Cousin Zhongzi in the world is worthy of being a brother. Cousin Zhongzi is now with Brother Xian, but they are rivals in love.
Thinking of this, Zhang Lingxi felt that it was a pity.
There are so many women in the world, why don't Brother Xian like it?
And Cousin Zhongzi, why did she fall into Fang Xiu's place, what good is Fang Xiu!
Although Fang Xiu is willing to give up everything and give up the life she is trapped in for the sake of Cousin Zhongzi. But people who abandon their wives and children always have to be disdainful.
Cousin Zhongzi refused to let him take this step.
Liu Xian and Zhong Zi didn't know that Zhang Lingxi had been worrying about them, and the two of them got together to discuss things.
Liu Xian really continued to be the usual practice, and asked first: "Can my cousin and Cousin Fang discuss the results?" β
Zhong Zi blocked his ears impatiently and said: "I did meet him today, but I have already told him that I will not agree to him, let him go home and stay well, and guard his daughter-in-law and son to live." If he refuses, I will shave my hair and become a sister-in-law, and I will never see him again. That's all, so you don't ask about things between the two of us anymore. β
"Have you figured it out?" Liu Xian's expression froze and asked.
Although he exchanged things with Fang Xiu for the sake of his cousin. But whether to choose Fang Xiu or not is my cousin's own business. If she thinks clearly, there is no point in persecuting her. What's more, Liu Xian also felt that Fang Xiu was not worthy of his cousin at all.
"Of course I thought it through, otherwise you think I'm going to be as grinding as you are?" Zhong Zi glanced at him and said, "Sister Xi'er, what's the matter with you." β
Liu Xian and Zhong Zi pretended to be stupid and said, "What can we do." β
Seeing that he refused to admit it, Zhong Zi said tentatively: "Today, someone has come to visit Sister Xi, guess who it is?" β
"Zuo is just Sister Yang, they are." Liu Xian replied, but since Zhong Zi mentioned this, maybe it was Zhao Ze who came to see Sister Xi. So he said: "Zhao Ze and Sister Xi have been friends since childhood, and it is not uncommon for them to come to visit Sister Xi." β
Zhong Zi spread his hands and said with a smile: "It seems that you can't think of it." Then let me tell you, it is Zhao Ze's father who is here today, Zhao Hanlin. β
Liu Xian said with a calm expression: "Zhao Hanlin may have come to find me, I heard that Sister Xi is on Zhuangzi, take a look by the way." β
Zhong Zi couldn't help laughing out loud and said, "What's the point of you deceiving yourself like this." He didn't go to your house to look for you, but came to Zhuangzi. What does it mean to talk to Sister Xi through the window? β
Although Zhong Zi's speech is not very good, it is for Liu Xian's good.
Liu Xian took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions and said, "If there is anything, Sister Xi will tell me." β
"That's why you don't know what a girl thinks." Zhong Zi asked, as a passer-by, "Does Sister Xi know what you think about her?" β
"You know, right?" Liu Xian was asked by Zhong Zi like this, but he was a little unsure.
"You see you're not sure about yourself, are you? Maybe Sister Xi doesn't know your mind at all, have you said anything particularly clear to each other, or have you exchanged any tokens? Zhong Zi asked.
Liu Xian thought about it carefully, except for the time when Sister Xi asked him about his mind a long time ago, it seemed that he really hadn't said anything very clear. But isn't that enough, what more tokens are needed?
Zhong Zi saw that Liu Xian didn't speak, and said: "My daughter's mind is the most difficult to guess, don't be mistaken." What's more, Sister Xi'er is a person who is too kind-hearted, and if someone else does something that she is not happy about, she often doesn't know how to refuse, and she just passes in a daze. β
Then when he hugged Sister Xi, Sister Xi didn't refuse, could he be wrong? Liu Xian's brows furrowed when he heard this, and he became inexplicably upset. This feeling is as if Sister Xi'er's warmth and softness have just escaped from his embrace, and he wants to reach out and grab it, but he grabs it.
Not sure, it's really not a good thing.
But in front of Zhong Zi, Liu Xian really didn't want to mention this, and his eyes became deep again.
Liu Xian rarely had such an expression.
Zhong Zi didn't want to deliberately embarrass Liu Xian, seeing that he didn't say anything, he could guess a rough idea. She seemed to realize that she was talking too much, so she pulled her hair back in embarrassment, and said, "I don't mean anything else when I say this, but it seems that there is a very ambiguous relationship between the two of you, but there is an indescribable estrangement, so I remind you." "A woman's intuition is often very accurate.
"I see, thank you, cousin." Liu Xian said bluntly, in fact, he did take Zhong Zi's reminder to heart, but he still felt awkward in his heart.
Zhong Zi smiled awkwardly and said, "Then I'll go first." She smiled and pointed out the door, feeling the air around her freeze with her embarrassment.
"Hey, that's right..."Zhong Zi was just about to go out, and suddenly thought that he had to explain to Liu Xian, so he turned around.
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liu Xian: "Well, I know, I will pay attention to Sister Xi and Zhao Jiashan." As long as that person is Sister Xi'er's willing, I won't interfere with who she chooses. β
Zhong Zisheng swallowed the words that came to his mouth and walked away in a sneering manner.
Zhang Lingxi had no dreams all night again, and slept very peacefully.
Helping her wait for her to finish freshening, Zang Xia told her that Brother Xian had been waiting outside for a long time.
"Hurry up and ask Brother Xian to come in." Zhang Lingxi looked in the mirror and said. "You should have told me earlier, so I wouldn't have let Brother Xian stand outside for so long."
"Young Master Xian, he heard that you slept soundly, so he didn't let us disturb your good dreams." Dong Wan said that she was bored by herself and took the initiative to come over to help.
Zhang Lingxi lowered his head and smiled.
Brother Xian is always so caring and likes to take care of people.
It's a pity that he was taken care of so much by Brother Xian, but he didn't have the opportunity to repay Brother Xian.
Seeing that Liu Xian was absent-minded, Zhang Lingxi sandwiched a dish for Liu Xian, and asked casually, "Does Brother Xian have something on his mind?" β
Liu Xian raised his head and smiled at Zhang Lingxi, and said, "How can you see it?" β
"I've known Brother Xian for so long, how can I not even see that Brother Xian has something on my mind."
Zhong Zi looked at the two of them and said to Zhang Lingxi: "It's not that you have known him for a long time, but that he is too obvious that you can see it." β
Liu Xian glanced at Zhong Zi, who immediately lowered his head and picked up the vegetables, pretending not to say anything just now.
"Brother Xian, why are you and your cousin weird today?" Zhang Lingxi blurted out without thinking.
Is there some contradiction between the two of them? Why is it a bit of a-for-tat feeling? Could it be that the two of them are jealous of Fang Xiu?
Thinking of this, Zhang Lingxi suddenly regretted that he had asked Brother Xian like that just now.
If we don't mention it, maybe the two of us will be fine after the morning.
Liu Xian didn't show any abnormality, and replied calmly: "We're fine." It's important for you to recuperate from your injuries now, worrying about this for a while and worrying about that for a while, but not worrying about your own injuries. β
Zhang Lingxi was a little embarrassed.
"By the way, Brother Xian, I've been bored these days and want to make contacts. Why don't I make you a sword spike by the way? β
As soon as these words came out, Liu Xian didn't answer, and glanced at Zhong Zi again.
Zhong Zi responded with a smile to Liu Xian, but it looked weird. Zhang Lingxi wondered in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask again, but looked at Liu Xian expectantly, waiting for him to agree.
"It just so happens that he lacks a sword spike, if you don't make it for him, I'm afraid no one will make it for him." Zhong Zi added a fire from the side and looked at Liu Xian with a little smugness.
"Really?" But Brother Xian's side, there should be a lot of women vying to make him a sword spike, right? Could it be because of Fang Xiu's affairs that they didn't dare to approach Brother Xian anymore?
Liu Xian looked at Sister Xi'er, and suddenly a sympathetic expression appeared on her face. Sister Xi should have believed Zhong Zi's words, and felt that it was a pitiful thing that no one made him a sword spike. Liu Xian suddenly felt that Sister Xi was stupid, which was not offensive, but funny.
"Well, if you're willing to help me make a sword spike, that's a great thing. But don't be too busy, you should be tired. Liu Xian replied in accordance with Sister Xi'er's words.
Zhong Zi held back a smile and raised an eyebrow at Liu Xian.
Liu Xian also smiled back.
It seems that there is no need to ask more.
Zhang Lingxi didn't go to Lao Anren for several days, and Lao Anren naturally talked about her.
"Our sister Xi doesn't know what to stumble on, and I haven't been here for a few days. Do you think you want to send someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask again? "Lao An is worried.
Lao An's thoughts, Liang understands best.
In the past few days, she has sent several people to inquire, but none of them have been confirmed.
Some said that Sister Xi was slightly ill, and some said that Sister Xi suddenly went to another place, in short, Liang didn't dare to tell Lao Anren any of these words.
In fact, the Liang family has heard of Sister Xi'er and Brother Zhe'er breaking up unhappily. Maybe it's because of Brother Zhe'er, Sister Xi didn't come.
The best way is to wait for Sister Xi'er to hear a letter.
The Yang family went to the Zhao family to take care of Yang Minyan, and there were only the Liang family and the eldest lady.
Seeing that Liang was silent, the eldest lady took the initiative to say: "I'm afraid that I can't ask anything." Sister Xi is the most assertive, and she may not be able to persuade her. I heard that Sister Xi lost her temper at Brother Zhe'er that day and left, was it because of Aunt Fan's matter? The eldest lady also couldn't get used to Aunt Fan, so she thought about helping Sister Xi say a few words.
But when she said this, it seemed that Sister Xi was angry and refused to come. said that it seemed to be angry with Brother Zhe'er, but in fact, it was the fifth master who asked Aunt Fan to come, and it was Lao An who promised to come down, and now it seems that Sister Xi is angry with Lao An and the fifth master.
Lao An people love Sister Xi the most. Sister Xi and Brother Zhe'er had an unpleasant quarrel and refused to come. Maybe Lao An will send Aunt Fan back because of this concession.
It can be seen how naΓ―ve the eldest lady is.
Sister Xi was angry and left, and the family hid it from Lao An, for fear that Lao An would think that Sister Xi was arrogant and angry. The eldest lady didn't want this, so she said those words in front of Lao Anren.
Liang had a headache and lifted his forehead. (To be continued.) )
