Chapter 158: Bamboo Horse
Perhaps it was because of the support in his heart, Xiyan slept a rare deep sleep.
The man in the dream seemed to have been holding her and saying many, many things to her. His voice was low and good, and she couldn't help but wish he could say more, more......
"Xiyan, do you remember when we first met...... When I got out of the study that day, I saw E-niang holding a little girl from afar...... You had a round face, a pointed chin, and smiling eyes...... Do you remember......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Li Xuan, this is your sister Xiyan, she will live in our house in the future, you are your brother, don't bully her." The beautiful and dignified young woman said softly to the young man.
The little girl beside her was only seven or eight years old, and after listening to her words, she was not afraid of life, and took two steps forward generously, raising her face and looking curiously at the boy who was a head taller than her. The girl was pink and cute, with a pair of big eyes bright and clear, but she stared at the teenager and blushed a little. She looked at him for a long time, and her face suddenly showed the happy expression of the child when he got the candy, "Brother Li Xuan, you are so good-looking!" β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The boy climbed ashore with difficulty with the girl, and the girl on the side was so frightened that she even cried hoarsely. "Gege...... Gege ......"
"Xiyan, wake up, Xiyan!" He patted her cheek anxiously.
"Woo......" The girl spit out a few mouthfuls of water, and hugged him and cried loudly without opening her eyes, "Brother Li Xuan...... Woo...... Woo...... "His body was drenched, and the chill to her bones made her shiver and cry even more fiercely.
"It's okay, it's okay!" His lips were purple from the cold, and he trembled as he picked up the coat he had just left on the shore and wrapped her tightly. "Don't be afraid, I'm here...... Don't be afraid......" He raised his hand to touch her head, but he was afraid that the cold would be transmitted to her, so he had to put her frozen little hand in his palm and rub it constantly.
His hands were obviously colder than hers, but she was inexplicably relieved......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"This way, this way...... Oops, not this one! "The girl stomps her feet under the tree." Brother Li Xuan, come down, I'm myself-"
"You stand honestly for me!" The young man had a straight face, he was tall and big, and he couldn't say funny when he hugged the trunk of the tree, "I'll pick it for you." β
"It's on your right......"
"This one? Or is it this one? β
"Yes, yes, this is it!" She smiled and clapped her hands. "This one blooms the best!"
The boy took the flower in his arms and jumped down from the tree.
"Well," he was about to hand it to her, when he thought for a moment, "come here, I'll plug it in for you." β
"Oh." The girl answered sweetly.
casually put the hairpin in her hair, but he suddenly looked at her in a daze.
The girl noticed something unusual, reached out and stroked her hair, and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong, isn't it pretty?" β
The young man's face turned red at once, and he looked away in embarrassment, "No...... Still...... It's pretty good...... "It's beautiful......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The boy drove past the girl and scooped her up to the horse.
"What are you doing, it scared me." The girl frowned and grumbled.
"What did Sixteen just tell you?" The young man asked with a cold face.
The girl was stunned, "I didn't say anything." The girl thought for a moment and said, "He just praised me for riding my horse well." β
The young man was irritable for a while, and then looked at her in a red riding suit, like a fairy in a flower, and he was even more angry: "What kind of torn clothes are you wearing, it's ugly to death!" β
The smile on the girl's face froze, and she whispered after a while, "That'...... I won't wear it again. β
"Hmm." The young man's face softened a little, "Also, talk to Sixteen less in the future." After speaking, before the girl could speak, she quickly added, "Otherwise, be careful that he will take you as the twentieth concubine." β
"Twenty rooms?!" The girl is staggered.
"Hmm. Maybe it's more than that. The young man said with a pretentious matter.
The girl thought silently, and suddenly asked seriously, "Then will you be like this in the future?" β
ββ¦β¦ Which? The boy was stunned.
"It will also ...... Do you have 20 rooms? β
The young man's tense face finally showed a trace of laugh lines, but he immediately put it away, and said with a straight face, "How do you know what will happen in the future?" β
"But I don't like you to marry someone else......" said the girl with a serious face, "I ...... Well, I must be good to you, to be good to you wholeheartedly, and you don't want to look for others, okay? β
The boy finally couldn't hide his smile anymore, and knocked a chestnut on the top of the girl's head, "Who cares that you little fool is good to me!" β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
When I woke up, it was already dark.
There seems to be someone's body temperature left next to the bed......
"Miss, are you awake?" The girl stepped forward to help her pull up the tent.
Xiyan stood up in a daze, looked at her blankly, and didn't reply.
The girl was accustomed to her silence, and didn't pay much attention to it, and while helping her pull the quilt up, she said, "You've slept for two hours, it's rare to see you sleep like this-"
"Ziyu, I'm hungry." Xiyan said suddenly.
"Huh?" The girl's hand called Ziyu suddenly froze, and she looked at her with some incredulity.
Xiyan looked up and smiled at her, and whispered, "I'm hungry......"
"Oh...... Oh, oh, oh! Ziyu reacted at this time, and hurriedly agreed, and said with a happy face, "The slave maid will ask someone to bring the food, Miss, you wait a minute, right away, come right away!" β
God, the young lady actually took the initiative to talk to her! And laugh!
Ziyu was busy going to Zhang Luo's meal, but Xiyan was still leaning motionless on the head of the bed, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
Did she just have a dream?
Li Xuan...... She thought with a frown. Who is Brother Li Xuan? The name was so familiar, it seemed to be engraved in her heart, it seemed to be on her lips, but why couldn't she remember it?
The right hand subconsciously touched the wrist of the left hand. I don't know when she developed a habit, she will always grope on her wrist from time to time.
Each time, it was empty, nothing but scarsβjust like her heart.
But this time-
The warm touch made her slightly stunned, and Xiyan looked down, but saw that a jade bracelet had been put on her wrist at some point, just to cover those ugly scars.
"Why is it so ......?" she whispered to herself.
Who was it that just hugged her and whispered over and over again?
Or ...... It's all just her illusion? Is it that she has been wearing this bracelet without knowing it?
At the bottom of my heart, a thick powerlessness suddenly arose.
She couldn't tell what was real and what was unreal for a long time......
She was even afraid to talk to people, afraid of strange and pitying glances from others.
She knows what people think of herβ
A poor madman......
Thinking about it in a trance, today she seems to have stabbed the doctor her eldest brother invited for her as a bad guy who bullied her......
Helplessly, she put her hands in her loose hair. Will she really have a day of recovery? (To be continued.) )
