Chapter 3: The Flickering Night (11)

She stood there for a long time without moving, pressing the phone on the table, and when Cui Xi asked her what she wanted to eat at night, she said, "I will eat whatever my mother eats at night." She doesn't eat it, and I don't eat it either. ”

"Nonsense!" Wan Wei scolded.

Jingyi walked over and silently leaned on Wanwei's back.

"Yi'er, you have to know why my mother is against you......" Wan Wei said astringently.

"Why?" Jingyi asked. In her heart, her mother just wouldn't oppose her father's authority.

"My mother knows this pain too well." Wan Wei seemed to have made up her mind, and finally said.

Jingyi couldn't help but sit up straight.

Oh*

Zhao Wujian carried a beautiful small flower basket into the door of the Cheng family early the next morning, and the wife and young master of each room of the Cheng family got her gifts. According to her own words, there is nothing new, nothing more than the latest French perfume, incense powder or something, but even the third wife, who has always been mean, likes this Miss Zhao San and praises her thoughtfulness.

"Things are common, but it's embarrassing to be embarrassed." The third wife, Na Yinghong, said to Du Shi. At this time, Wujian had already left the upper room and went to visit Jingyi.

Du Shi smiled, looked at Wan Wei, and said, "Xiao Shi is still not happy?" Innocent came to her to go to the bookstore. ”

Wan Wei said, "It's much better." ”

"If it's much better, let's go. Yi'er should also prepare something for the start of school. I see she hasn't been out since she came home. Dushi said.

"Miss Ten shouldn't be suffering from heat stroke, right?" The third lady opened the incense powder given to her by Wujian to take a look, glanced at Wanwei, and said, "Last evening, my fourth sister and I went to visit the garden, as if I saw that Miss Ten had just come back. I also let the fourth sister see it, saying that Miss Ten didn't study at home, how could she come in from the back garden in a hurry, and she was still busy hiding when she saw someone? Right, Fourth Sister? ”

The fourth wife, Li Qiaochu, was concentrating on the silver ribbon on her perfume bottle, and when she heard the third lady ask, she woke up like from a dream, and sighed, looked at Wan Wei and then looked at Du Shi, and said with a smile: "Look at that like that, it seems to be Miss Ten." ”

The third lady smiled, knowing that the fourth lady had always been slippery and easily refused to offend people, so she said, "Oh, and Cuixi." Second wife, where did Miss Ten go yesterday? ”

Wan Wei smiled and said: "It's hot, Cui Xi accompanied Jingyi to the garden to enjoy the shade." It's just a heat attack, isn't this not very refreshing? I took medicine at night, and I'm getting better now. I got up early and came to say hello to my wife. ”

What else did the third wife say, but the fourth lady preemptively smiled and said: "I'll just say, Miss Ten is polite and lawful when she sees people, is it possible that she won't see her in the summer?" No, you can't. You must not have seen us. She flicked her crystalline nails and didn't look at them.

The third lady was preemptively said this by her, but it was not good to say anything else, but she just sneered.

Du Shi saw that several of them were a little wrong in color, so he took a sip of tea and said, "Let's disperse." It's hot, and it's time to take care of it. ”

The third and fourth ladies said goodbye and left side by side.

Wan Wei was a little dizzy when she was together, and she didn't want to show weakness in front of others, but her face changed color after all.

As soon as Du Shi stretched out his hand, he held her arm and whispered, "Sit down." ”

Wan Wei sat down.

Du Shi personally helped her to lean on his couch, ordered someone to bring water, and asked the people who followed, did you bring the medicine, and did you take the medicine in the morning. After Wan Wei eased up, Du Shi said: "I see that you have not looked good for the past two days, which is strange and scary." I'll have to find a doctor to show you. I calculated that the medicine I had prepared last time should be finished, and the doctor took a look at it and prescribed another prescription for them to make. ”

Wan Wei shook her head and said, "Don't bother, madam, I don't know how much medicine I take all year round, and it always costs some money......

"What are you talking about? What are you? With you being cultivated with ginseng and deer antlers, how much can you cultivate such a thin person? "It's not good for me to say you're like this." In any case, you should be relieved - you see me, if I am as heavy as you all the time, will I not be able to live? ”

Wan Wei just shook her head.

"I know what you're for. Yi'er, too, has always been obedient, and this time he is serious and stubborn. Dushi said.

"Ma'am...... You know what I think...... What I'm afraid of is Jingyi...... She went my way......"

"No, it won't." Du Shi comforted Wan Wei. She sighed and added, "You never forget the past." Are you going to be bound by something like that in your life? It's just enough to bind yourself, do you still want to use it to bind Yi'er? ”

"That's the only thing I've done wrong." Wan Wei couldn't hold back her tears.

Du Shi was silent for a moment and said, "Wanwei, have you always been dissatisfied with the master?" ”

Wan Wei hurriedly wiped her tears and shook her head.

"The lord has snubbed you all these years, but you also have to know why. You are right to follow him in all things. But sir, how could you just follow him? You have to make him spoiled, you have to make him think he's your man. "Duch's voice couldn't be lower. She looked at Wan Wei helplessly, just with a look of hatred that iron does not become steel.

Wan Wei was stunned by her and asked, "Madam, how is your heart ......?"

"Rubber." Du Shi said self-deprecatingly, "I don't have a seven-pronged exquisite heart like you, wet (poetry) is dry, and the wind and the moon are all sorrowful and sick." When I marry him, I marry a man to live. I wish there was someone to serve him for me. Our master is a difficult person to serve, and you don't know it. In the years before you entered the door, he was like a monk, and he occasionally broke his vows. As soon as he broke the ring, he had a big daughter. I am the Lord who marries you. And he was willing. No one forced him. Later, the third child, I can't say it. Marrying the fourth child means that he is crazy in his old age! But you see, when the third child enters the door with a child, even if you make a fuss? I've been angry that I haven't eaten well for a few days, and you're still so cold to him. Didn't he take you to Europe just to get along with you? Otherwise, the three old children will be jumping with chickens and dogs tossing at home with their stomachs and guts, I can stand it, but you can't stand it. When he came back, he told me that you were pregnant, and he was very happy. How good was the time before Jingyi was born...... You! ”

"It's mine, isn't."

"If you know it's yours, change it. What's the use of you being nice to me? You're not my wife. Du Shi said and hated, "If you fall into a disease, who feels sorry for you?" How long has it been since you have been there? ”

Wan Wei was silent.

"It's hard for me to say that...... He treats you differently than anyone else. Even if you look at Jingyi, you can see it from another eye. People say that he is eccentric, so he will let people say it. Du Shi was a little distracted, "When the old man was robbed in Suiyuan, the old lady of the Tao family saved his life. He had seen the family with his own eyes, and he had seen the child as a child. When I made this family business, I also asked you what you meant. You are in favor of it, and he has made up his mind. The major events he has set have never seen a turnaround. Others don't know the master's temper, don't you know? Don't screw with him, it's not half a good. Besides, Jingyi is a child's nature, and she can't do it accurately. endured it for a while, got married, and after a long time, that heart faded. ”

"Yi'er's temper is like that of a master. I'm afraid it's not that easy. Wan Wei said.

"At that time, she insisted on studying medicine, and I could see it. When ten girls encounter things, they are by no means a person who can be pinched and rounded by you. I'm afraid there will be a lot of consumption for these two men. Du Shi thought of this one, and remembered another one, and said: "What kind of life do you say I have, Yi'er is like this, Lao Jiu is also unconscious, and the third child is even more!" ”

Wan Wei said: "The third young master has great ambitions. ”

"What a big ambition, I am worried all day long."

"Madam, Yi'er's crush...... I want to persuade the old man to meet the child. Wan Wei hesitated.

"You mean?" The fan in Du's hand stopped.

"I heard that he was a middle school classmate of Lao Jiu, and he was in a university with Yi'er, so he was excellent in character and learning. Although his family background is not as good as ours, he can afford to study, and he should also say that it is in the past. I don't want anything else, as long as the child is good, that's it. Wan Wei said very slowly, carefully considering the words. Looking at Du Shi's face, he was not unhappy, so he said: "It's Yi'er's sweetheart after all...... She is so stubborn, I'm afraid of her...... Something is going on, it's not good-looking. ”

Du Shi shook the fan again and asked, "Do you really think so?" ”

"I also think about it, and I don't dare to reveal half a point in front of Yi'er. If the master does not agree, this is still a dead end. Yi'er became angry with the old man again, hurting their father-daughter relationship. Wan Wei said.

"In that case, let's go and mention it to the master." Du Shi looked at Wan Wei and said, "Although I approve of the Tao family's marriage, I also think that the ten girls can be satisfied." In the final analysis, if she is satisfied, we can be satisfied. ”

Wan Wei took Du Shi's hand and just nodded.

"Don't be disgusted with me. I'll still say that, forget all the things of the past. See through, it's no big deal. If you can come to Cheng's house, it is fate and your life. You say, what would have happened if you had passed out on the side of the road that day and I hadn't found you? Du sighed. She lives in Berlin with her husband and her two young daughters. It's just that I occasionally go to the street, and I meet Wan Wei who fell on the street. I relented for a while and brought it home and asked a doctor to go to the clinic for treatment. Such a weak woman, she loves her heart and eyes. Wan Wei was picked up by her for the master, and she always felt that maybe she didn't pick up someone for the master, but picked up a companion for herself...... She looked at the clock and asked for tea, "Drink something hot...... Dangui, go and see what Miss Ten and Miss Biao are doing. If they don't go to the bookstore, we'll go to Xinglu for lunch. ”

Dangui promised to go out.

At this time, Wujian and Jingyi were talking in the room.
