Chapter 162: Contradictions
The face of the man in front of him was pale, and the side face hidden in the shadows tried hard to suppress his feelings.
Xia Mei's pupils trembled uncontrollably, and she couldn't believe it, looking at the suppressed murderous aura of the man in front of her.
There was a moment of strangeness, shaking her head, Xia Mei reacted, pursed her lips and gently stroked her tight thighs, and asked softly, "Husband...... What happened to you? ”
At the moment when Xia Mei touched Wu Song, she obviously felt that the other party's body was tense and straightened instantly, if the object was not Xia Mei, it was estimated that she had been thrown to the ground at this moment.
Wu Song turned his head, his deep and gentle eyes were as deep as a swamp at the moment, dark and terrifying, and after staring at Xia Mei for a long time, he suddenly came back to his senses, and his eyes became complicated and sad.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Song slowly relaxed, turned his head and did not speak.
Xia Mei was even more worried, and pulled his face in front of her, her apricot eyes were moist and affectionate, "Husband...... How do you get here? What's the matter? ”
Wu Song's heart was in a mess at the moment, looking at Xia Mei's worried eyes, he didn't say anything for a long time.
The two were at a stalemate for a moment, Wu Song gently took Xia Mei's hand on his face, sighed, and said in a low voice, "It's nothing." ”
Then he got up and walked out the door.
Xia Mei watched the other party leave without saying a word, knowing that there was the sound of the courtyard door opening and closing outside, so she woke up suddenly, and ran to the door to see Wu Song's back disappearing in front of the door.
What's going on?
There was a faint uneasiness in her heart, which was expanding more and more, Xia Mei pursed her lips, trying to ignore the uncomfortable strange feeling in her heart, this strange emotion made Xia Mei anxious and panicked.
"It's okay, maybe the husband just heard these things and remembered some things from the past...... I'm just in a bad mood, I'll be back later. ”
After silently repeating it in her heart a few times, Xia Mei appeased her urge to chase out, calmed down, and went to the kitchen to start cooking dinner.
At first, Xia Mei was really serious about preparing dinner, and she was going to make porridge and side dishes with pancakes tonight. Eat something light for dinner in the hot summer to quench your thirst.
It's just that the process is not so smooth, first accidentally added too much rice, and the porridge became slimy. Then there is the side dish, the salt is less, and it is tasteless.
In the end, she fried the pancakes that she was best at in the past, and Xia Mei looked at the messy meal in front of her, wanting to cry without tears.
Looking at the sky, Tang Bao had not come back yet, and sighed. It seems that tonight, I can only eat noodles again.
After making the noodles, Tang Bao also came back in a hurry, Xia Mei pulled him to wash his hands and sit at the dinner table, Tang Bao asked suspiciously: "Mother, where is Daddy?" ”
Xia Mei's face stiffened, and she pulled out a smile and said, "Daddy...... He's in trouble, let's wait! ”
Tang Bao intuitively looked at her mother's face and was not very good, she was very sensible and didn't ask much, and nodded obediently. I also tried very hard to divert my mother's attention and give her interesting stories about going to school.
Xia Mei's heart was warm, her eyes were full of love, and she touched Tang Bao's little head, and her mood was finally better.
It's just that with the passage of time, Xia Mei dialed the wick of the oil lamp three times, Tang Bao was already so tired from telling the story that he was lying on the table, and his weak appearance made people feel distressed.
Looking outside the door, Tang Bao asked in a low voice, "Mother." Hasn't Daddy come back yet? ”
Xia Mei's eyes kept staring at the door, motionless, and the dim and flickering light stretched her shadow on the wall, fluttering. It's as if the wind blows and then it drifts away.
Hearing Tang Bao's voice, she slowly pulled back her eyes, looked at the cold food on the table, lowered her eyes, and hid her feelings.
When I looked up again, the smile on my face was no different from the one I used to be. "Tang Bao, Daddy estimates that something is delayed, let's not wait for Daddy, my mother will make you a bowl of noodles again, and you can rest early after eating?"
Tang Bao sat up straight, nodded obediently and said, "Well, mother, Tang Bao will help you light the fire!" ”
Xia Mei smiled with relief, took Tang Bao's little hand, went to the kitchen to make a bowl of noodles for Tang Bao again, let Tang Bao eat it, boiled water and bathed him, and sent him into the room after cleaning up.
After a night of tossing, Tang Bao was still a child after all, and he couldn't stand it anymore, he couldn't open his eyes at the moment, his little hand rubbed his eyes, and asked in a daze: "Mother, do you want to wait for your father to come back?" ”
Xia Mei made a move, covered the quilt with Tang Bao, and smiled faintly, "Well, my mother is waiting for my father to come back." ”
Tang Bao nodded, closed his eyes, and soon fell into a dream, Xia Mei sat in front of the window, looking at Tang Bao's sweet sleeping face, her heart was soft.
She has been glad countless times that God has given her the opportunity to be reborn, but now that she thinks about it, she should be most glad that God has given her such a lovely son, such a flesh and blood connection.
A loved one, a person with the courage, motivation, and hope to live.
She is an orphan, she has longed for family affection in countless dreams, but she is still alone when she wakes up, she doesn't know how to be a child, let alone how to be a parent.
So when facing Tang Bao, she could only rely on the impression of her previous life to try her best to give Tang Bao the best, teach early, and want to spoil and teach strictly.
Although Tang Bao was very healthy and happy, she was still very uneasy in her heart.
She wants to pave a longer road for Tang Bao's future, so she hopes to open Tianfu Restaurant to the whole world like in the novel in her previous life, so that her son can take care of him wherever he goes in the future.
She's not a strong woman, she's just a restless mother.
But...... She seems to have been ignoring something.
Turned around and looked at the sky outside, the moon had already ascended to the middle of the sky, and before I knew it, it was already early in the morning, Xia Mei's eyes flashed with worry, "He didn't bring a coat again, what if he catches a cold......
Hearing a noise outside the door, Xia Mei hurriedly ran out, opened the door and saw Wu Song covered in blood, the blood covered in the cool moonlight was so dazzling!
Xia Mei's tears immediately flowed, and she staggered over, helping his crumbling body, touching the warmth in her hands, and the tears didn't feel more fierce.
raised his head, but found that Wu Song's eyes were cold to the bone, and his eyes looked at her like a stranger, completely losing the gentleness and affection of the past.
"Xia Mei, I'm leaving."
At this moment, her heart hurt as if she had leaked a big hole, and the cold and biting wind kept pouring in from the hole, and she couldn't speak in the cold, and she almost fainted.
opened his mouth. But I found that there was no sound, only tears falling down like a flood that opened the floodgates.
Wu Song turned around expressionlessly, and at some point an extra blood-stained long sword appeared in his hand. An icy chill flickered on the blade of the sword, and drops of blood rolled down into the parched soil.
"Nope! Husband! Don't go! Where are you going?! ”
Xia Mei pounced on it, only to find that the man had fallen to the ground with a bang, and the clothes she had sewn with her own hands stained with dazzling blood couldn't look good......
"Don't!"
There was a loud shout. Xia Mei sat up in shock, stiffened for a moment, and then suddenly relaxed.
Great, just had a nightmare.
Stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat off his forehead, only then did he realize that he was asleep in Tang Bao's house, remembering that Wu Song had not returned all night after doing it, he hurriedly got up, opened the door and ran outside.
In the empty courtyard, the axe lay quietly in the corner, and its position did not move for half a minute.
Seemingly...... You really haven't come back......
There was a flash of pain in his eyes. Turn around and get dressed, go to the kitchen to make breakfast as usual, soak the clothes to be washed, and wash the clothes by the way.
To this day, she still doesn't know why Wu Song suddenly became angry, his love changed too suddenly, and he didn't return for a night without saying a word.
Since she knew Wu Song and married Wu Song for a year, he has taken meticulous care and tolerance of herself, and has never said a word to herself. Not to mention that she just walked away like yesterday, and she didn't take care of her at all.
Therefore, Xia Mei was very aggrieved in her heart.
But she could only sue herself. She is not a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and such a love affair has no effect.
Husband and wife always have to run in slowly, and give each other enough space, Wu Song has his own things, his own privacy, and he doesn't need to know everything.
Two people encounter contradictions. It should be more about communication, rather than playing petty and losing your temper, which will only become stricter and stricter, and it is more likely to cause irreparable mistakes.
So Xia Mei worked hard to adjust her mentality, cooked and washed as usual, called Tang Bao to have breakfast together, left breakfast for Wu Song, and left a note.
Then he took Tang Bao to the town to go to school, run a restaurant, sell ice fast, and sort out grain.
Well, as always, every day is no different.
Tang Bao was lying on the table, and there was his master's homework on it, but he didn't want to do a word now.
He hadn't seen his father in seven days...... Doesn't Daddy want him to kiss his mother?
Tang Bao wrinkled his little face, and when he thought of this question, he was so sad that he was about to cry.
How so? Did Daddy and Mom quarrel? But why? Why did Daddy say goodbye to Tang Bao when he said he would leave......
"Ha ......" at a young age, Tang Bao sighed bitterly.
Hearing the sound of soft footsteps outside, Tang Bao hurriedly sat up straight, pretending to be working hard to write his homework.
Sure enough, Xia Mei quickly walked in, looked at Tang Bao's "serious" writing, smiled with relief, put aside the chilled fruit in her hand, and then retreated softly.
Tang Bao quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
I don't know when he felt that his ears and eyes seemed to become very good, for example, just now, he could distinguish the footsteps of a person, and he could tell who the person was.
In the school, you can always see the small notes written by the classmates on the table next door, and you can also see the mother bird and the birds outside the window......
All in all magical.
During the demonstration, Xia Mei intentionally or unintentionally revealed that since she made her own ice, the vegetables in the cellar have been kept fresh and can be stored for a longer time......
Seeing the other party's flash of inspiration, Xia Mei was finally relieved, since she gave the other party the method, don't be violent and ruined, such a big refrigerator, if you use it unreasonably, you will be damned!
The old valley lord looked at Xia Mei's eyes more and more satisfied, and his attitude towards her became more and more enthusiastic and sincere, of course Mu San was happy to see it, although he was a traitor, but now Xia Mei forgave him and had a good relationship with his master, which is really a happy thing.
Others only knew that this person was Mu San's master, but they didn't know that this was the valley master of the famous Medicine King Valley, if they knew, Xia Mei was sure that Liu Quan would never scold the other party when he was stealing pig's trotters.
The old valley owner stayed in Qingshan Town for a few days and left, and before leaving, he gave Xia Mei a bag of large and small bottles, saying that it was a little gadget and kept it for her to play.
One day before, Xia Mei went to pick up Tang Bao from school, and was met by the old valley master who was drunk in a daze, Xia Mei pulled Tang Bao to greet the old valley master, Tang Bao bowed obediently, "Hello old man!" ”
When he bent over, the jade pendant hanging around his neck fell out, and the old valley lord's eyes flashed with surprise, looking at Tang Bao, his eyes couldn't help but be a little more scrutinized.
After looking at it for a long time, he laughed loudly: "Haha, good boy! Anyway, since you have a fate, then the old decay will help you more! ”
As he spoke, the old valley lord stretched out his hand and touched Tang Bao's heavenly spirit cover, in Xia Mei's opinion, the other party just looked at Tang Bao and touched his head, and didn't think much about it, Tang Bao just felt warm, and then he felt clearer.
looked at the old man in front of him ignorantly, but the other party smiled lovingly and said, "Boy, remember to come to the Medicine King Valley to play when you grow up!" ”
After speaking, he staggered away, regardless of the mother and son who were confused behind him.
Xia Mei didn't know anything, and Tang Bao didn't notice anything abnormal, but a few days later, Wu Song, who checked Tang Bao's internal strength, was surprised.
"This kid ...... Could it be that you have met some master? The shackles in the body were broken up all at once......"
Surprised, Wu Song decided to ask Xia Mei tentatively, "Lady, has your son seen any strangers recently?" Like what...... Jianghu people? ”
Xia Mei glanced at him strangely, and then thought, "No...... He's in school all day, and the rest of the time he's at home...... Ah, we met the old valley lord that day! What, what's the problem? ”
Wu Song frowned, "Valley Master? What valley owner? ”
Xia Mei folded the washed clothes in her hand and said casually: "The valley master of the Medicine King Valley! ”
The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, Wu Song was startled, and the bow and arrow he wiped in his hand were almost thrown out.
"What?! Medicine King Valley? ”
Wu Song's surprised voice made Xia Mei raise her head blankly, "Yes, what's wrong?" Husband, do you know you too? ”
Wu Song looked at his mother's natural eyebrows with a strange face, and held it for a long time before he breathed, "Forget it, it's nothing." ”
Xia Mei felt inexplicable, and suddenly realized after a while, "Yes, if the husband used to be a dart game, he should also be from the rivers and lakes!" So you should be familiar with the Medicine King Valley? ”
Wu Song's eyes crossed a trace of affection, and Xia Mei, who was fast in front of him, didn't find any clues, nodded indifferently and said, "Yes, I've heard of it before." ”
"But, lady, how do you know the valley master of the Medicine King Valley? What happened? (To be continued.) )
