Chapter 13: Rigidity and Softness
"Father, Mother!"
A crisp, somewhat weak cry rang out abruptly.
When everyone heard the voice, they saw An Ruoxian with a pale little face, standing behind the curtain timidly, her little hands tightly clutching the corner of the curtain, her face full of panic.
An Ruolan couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart.
Meng's cry suddenly lowered.
"Sister Xian?" An Shiyan called out in surprise.
Xue's eyes rolled, and before everyone could speak, he stepped forward and asked with concern, "How did Sister Xian'er run out?" ”
An Ruoxian praised Xue's Shangdao in her heart, and then pretended to be cowardly and glanced around everyone, and finally her eyes fell on Meng Shi, who was raining pear blossoms, and said timidly: "I, I heard my mother crying, Xian'er is so worried......"
The soft and well-behaved appearance is very pleasing.
An Shiyan was stunned at first, then beckoned to An Ruoxian with a gentle smile and said, "Sister Xian, come here." ”
An Ruoxian blinked her big black and white eyes, looking very innocent, she let go of the curtain and trotted to An Shiyan's side, raised her head to look at Meng Shi with pear blossoms and rain, her face was full of worry.
Seeing this, An Shiyan's heart was soft, patted Meng's arm, and chuckled: "Look, even Xian'er has to worry about you, but don't cry." ”
Meng Shi also saw the worry in An Ruoxian's eyes, and couldn't help but move in his heart, and gradually stopped crying.
She leaned over and hugged An Ruoxian, and said with a forced smile: "Sister Xian is so good." ”
An Ruoxian nestled in her arms, raised her little hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and said softly: "Mother doesn't cry, if you cry, Xian'er will be sad, don't worry, Sister Lan will definitely get better, and God will bless Sister Lan." ”
Meng Shi felt the little hands gently wiping his face, his eyes were hot again, and he smiled with tears: "Sister Xian'er is right, mother doesn't cry anymore." ”
"Uh-huh!" An Ruoxian's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she nodded heavily, looking extremely coquettish.
In her previous life, as a tool for her biological mother to compete for favor, An Ruoxian was very experienced in pleasing people, and it was easy to comfort Meng Shi now.
Seeing her so innocent and cute, Meng couldn't help but smile and rub against her forehead, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously hooked.
This move caused An Ruoxian to giggle, and the silver bell-like laughter broke the dull atmosphere and completely dispelled the gloom in Meng's heart.
"This will be fine, Sister Xian has really done her father a great favor, she should be rewarded! Hahaha! An Shiyan was full of relief, stretched out his hand and hugged the mother and daughter into his arms at the same time, smiling happily.
Meng snuggled in her husband's arms, her eyes full of satisfaction and happiness.
The handsome and elegant father, the gentle and beautiful mother, and the lively and lovely daughter, the picture of the three of them leaning on each other is so warm that it will make people's hearts warm.
"Sister Xian'er is really beloved Madame." Xue Shi smiled and spoke, originally in a flattering tone, but with a hint of imperceptible acidity, there was both success in his eyes, resentment, and safety, which was so complicated that it was unpredictable.
An Ruolan was silent from beginning to end.
It's not that I didn't notice An Ruoxian's throw, if there was a smug gaze, but I couldn't stir up the slightest ripple in my heart.
Maybe it's because she's seen too many of these pictures in her previous life, but now she's able to be indifferent.
If An Ruoxian wants to hit her with this, I'm afraid she will be disappointed.
An Ruoxian was indeed disappointed.
Seeing that An Ruolan was not moved at all, she felt frustrated and angry at the same time. She decided that An Ruolan was ruthless and ruthless, and she didn't care about Meng's appearance, so she became more and more determined to take away Meng's favor from An Ruolan.
After enjoying some family fun, Meng Shi's face bloomed again, she nodded the tip of An Ruoxian's nose affectionately, and said softly: "Although it was just an accident, but your sister Lan still has the responsibility of taking care of her, can you forgive her?" ”
Hearing her mention this matter again, everyone's expressions froze, An Shiyan coughed unnaturally twice, and said, "Forget it, Sister Lan was also injured, it's really no wonder that she." ”
"If you make a mistake, you should be punished, and the fifth master doesn't have to be partial to Lan'er." Meng Shi's expression was stern.
Hearing this, Liu anxiously stepped forward, "Madame......"
just opened his mouth, but was stopped by An Ruolan.
Shaking his head at Liu, An Ruolan said to Meng Shi unhurriedly: "The mother wants to punish her daughter, but the daughter does not dare to admit the punishment." However, before that, my daughter wanted to ask, it was her daughter's fault that Sister Xian hurt her head, and whose fault was it that daughter hurt her leg? She also asked the mother to give justice to her daughter and let the wrongdoer be punished as he deserved. ”
With that, she stood up and said aloud, "Please let the mother make the decision for her daughter." ”
Meng Shi's face turned pale immediately, and he took two steps back, looking at her in disbelief.
An Shiyan hurriedly hugged his wife, and was embarrassed: "Lan'er, your mother is also for your good, she is worried that this matter will affect your reputation after it spreads, why should you implicate others......
"Father," An Ruolan's eyes were calm, and he said clearly word by word, "Do you also think that what happened in the morning is my fault?" ”
"This ......" An Shi hesitated, looked at Meng Shi with a sad look, and finally said against his will: "You really didn't take care of Sister Xian'......"
With a slight chill in her heart, An Ruolan lowered her eyes and said softly: "It's not that my daughter doesn't want to take care of my sister Xian, but that my daughter doesn't have that ability. If so, the father and mother also think that it is the daughter's fault, and the daughter has nothing to say. ”
"Lan'er ......" Seeing that her daughter, who had always been arrogant and stubborn, showed such a fragile appearance, An Shiyan couldn't help but tighten her throat.
An Ruolan took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice: "The daughter is not as well-behaved and cute as Sister Xian, and she doesn't know how to comfort and be filial to her mother, so even if she sees her father and mother love Sister Xian, her daughter doesn't dare to complain, but her daughter doesn't understand, why does her mother have to apologize to Sister Xian, the daughter is not wrong, the daughter is ...... My daughter just can't ......."
As he spoke, bean-sized tears slid down his cheeks, and in the end, he couldn't cry.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked.
Liu couldn't help but cover his mouth and cry bitterly.
At this moment, everyone realized that An Ruolan was just a seven-year-old child, and it was not enough to take care of himself, so how could he take care of others? What's more, she had a serious illness before, and her body has not yet recovered, where will she have the ability to take care of her sister?
An Shiyan was distressed, and she couldn't care about etiquette, so she picked her up, patted her back, and comforted her softly: "Lan'er, you are not wrong, it is your father and mother who blame you, good, don't cry......" even hugged her back and forth as if coaxing a toddler.
Meng's heart was like a knife, and he wanted to step forward, but he didn't dare to step forward, so he could only look at his husband and daughter faintly, crying silently.
An Ruolan lay in her father's broad embrace, tugging at her father's shirt and sobbing, but her eyes that kept shedding tears were not sad, some were endlessly cold.
"The rigid one is easy to break", she repeated these four words silently.
