Chapter Seventy-Six: Have You Ever Liked Me?
"Then, that's it, I'll take it first, if you have anything, just tell your aunt, don't be polite to your aunt."
"Hmm" Bai Qianning saw that Aunt Xu accepted the money, and then said: "This matter, I can really only trouble my aunt, you also know that I was abducted and trafficked, and I haven't learned needlework since I was a child." Seeing that spring is about to begin, I want to make clothes for Xiaodouding, and Brother Wang, he has helped me a lot, I have to thank him. ”
"What's so difficult about this, you kid is thoughtful, and I don't have anything to do, you just pick out a beautiful cloth and bring it to your aunt to make for you."
Aunt Xu grabbed Bai Qianning's two hands, how to look at it and feel pleasing to the eye, thinking in her heart that she couldn't be entangled in Bai Qianning's marriage anymore, and she had to settle her marriage with Shi as soon as possible.
Bai Qianning didn't know what Aunt Xu was planning to do, looked at Grandma Zhao who was sitting on the side with a kind smile on her face, and said: "Then thank you, auntie, by the way, didn't I buy some cloth last time I went to the county, and I will go to Brother Wang's house to get it after dinner, and I bother my aunt to make a body for Grandma Zhao first, her clothes are badly torn, but I am afraid that she will not keep out the cold at all." ”
"Cheng, it's just that making clothes takes time, I think I'd better go find a set for her first, you boil hot water to help her wash and change it first."
"I also have this intention, then it will be troublesome aunt, I will take my grandmother back to the room first, and let her sleep in the same room with us in the next two days."
After Bai Qianning finished speaking, she took Grandma Zhao back to the side room, and the Xu sisters helped boil the water, and after a while, most of the hot water was prepared.
Bai Qianning took a comfortable bath for Grandma Zhao, found scissors to trim her knotted hair, and then changed into the clothes sent by Aunt Xu.
Everything was ready, and it was almost noon. Maybe it's because it's easy to get sleepy after taking a bath, and Grandma Zhao, who was staring at Bai Qianning like a flower one second, fell asleep on the bed the next second.
Bai Qianning could only cover the quilt for her, then stretched out her finger and put it to her mouth, signaling Xiao Douding who was sitting next to her not to speak, and then took her out of the door.
Xiao Douding fell asleep that night at Zhao's house and had never seen Grandma Zhao, so it was very strange why her mother wanted to bring people back, so as soon as the two of them walked out of the door, she asked, "Mother, who is this grandmother?" ”
"She's Zhao Daniu's grandmother!"
Bai Qianning pulled her to sit on a small stool in the courtyard and patiently explained to her.
Hearing this, Xiao Douding couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and hurriedly asked: "The Zhao family is all bad people, why did my mother bring her back?" And why be so nice to her? ”
"The two sisters of the Zhao family and their father and mother are bad doesn't mean that everyone in the Zhao family is bad, does it? Do you think that uncle lying on the hospital bed is bad? ”
Bai Qianning explained, she was naturally referring to Zhao Laosan.
Xiao Douding listened to her words, thought for a while, shook his head and said, "That uncle didn't bully us. ”
"So, that uncle is not a bad person, and this grandmother is not a bad person. Think about it, we have only been in the Zhao family for a few days, and we have been abused like that, and this old grandmother has been bullied in the Zhao family for many, many years, and my mother took her out because she didn't want to let her be bullied anymore, you know? Also, in terms of seniority, you have to call her grandma, you know? ”
"Hmmm! Got it! In the future, I will share the delicious food with my grandmother! ”
Xiao Douding responded obediently, and then hugged the little fox in his arms, pretending to be an adult and teaching it: "You are not allowed to bully grandma in the future, you know?" ”
Creak! The little fox squealed in agreement.
Bai Qianning looked at their cute appearance, and couldn't help but smile. It is very difficult for people to live in this world, but the world of children is the most beautiful and simple.
It's just that she looked at Xiao Douding, but she didn't know that her beautiful smile also fell into the eyes of the stone standing in the corner. This love root is planted deeply, and there will be a headache in the future.
......
Thinking of going to Zhan Qianche to talk about yesterday's events, Bai Qianning found a reason to go out alone after lunch, and Grandma Zhao was amused by Xiaodouding, and she was stunned to make up for all the smiles she had lost over the years.
Bai Qianning walked out of the courtyard of the Xu family, and went straight to Zhan Qianche's courtyard, knocked on the door twice, and when she saw that no one responded, she tried to push the door, but she didn't expect that this push really made her push it open.
The room was empty, except for the extra wooden bed, which seemed to return to the lifeless appearance it had when it first arrived.
"Brother Wang! Are you there? ”
Bai Qianning asked tentatively in the direction of the inner room, but it was still silent inside.
But for some reason, Bai Qianning always felt that Zhan Qianche was very close to him, as if he could feel his breath, which was in this room. Approaching the inner room step by step, although she knew that Zhan Qianche was taboo for others to enter, she still chose to get closer.
But just as she stepped into the inner room, the small door in front of her opened, and then she saw Zhan Qianche coming up from the wooden ladder underground.
He looked very haggard, there was no anger in his dark pupils, his sturdy body seemed to be a little more decadent, and when he looked down, he could see the wound on his right hand that had just begun to scab.
"Why are you here?"
"What's wrong with you?"
The two opened their mouths almost at the same time, but their tones were completely different.
Bai Qianning just wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Zhan Qianche's cold voice.
"Didn't I tell you not to come again?"
"I, I, why? Is everything that happens these days in your eyes something that can be deleted and discarded at will? ”
Bai Qianning only felt that her nose was sour, and her eyes were already foggy, she could feel that something must have happened to Zhan Qianche, but she didn't know what kind of thing could make their feelings worthless.
"Yes! If you are satisfied with my answer, please go out! ”
Zhan Qianche's voice was still cold, as if he had just come out of the ice cellar, and it pierced straight into his heart and lungs.
"I'm not satisfied! I'm not satisfied at all! ”
I don't know why, Bai Qianning suddenly cried, she knew that she should have held back the grievances in her heart and turned her head away, but she didn't know why she wanted to cry so much at this moment.
In this strange world, she was once helpless and lost, and it was this man who gave her hope for the future.
But I don't know why, when this love was just budding, he had to ruthlessly take this love away.
"Didn't you like me at all? Even a little. ”
Bai Qianning asked this, only to realize that his face was full of tears.
Zhan Qianche probably didn't expect Bai Qianning to react so much, his tightly knit brows wrung deeper, and he softened his tone and said, "You don't want to be like this, I don't know ...... you"
"I don't know if I already love you so much?"
Bai Qianning asked with a sneer.
"I'm sorry, it's just that I really can't respond to you."
Zhan Qianche looked at Bai Qianning's red eyes, raised his hand to wipe away her tears, but finally put it down.
"Then I'll just ask you, have you ever liked me, even a little!"
Bai Qianning stepped forward, looking at Zhan Qianche with a pair of hot eyes, she told herself that as long as there was an answer, no matter what it was, she would never force him again.
Zhan Qianche looked back at Bai Qianning, opened his mouth, and asked himself in his heart, do you like it? Maybe, but so what, his mother's revenge has not yet been avenged, and why does he have a child's affection.
The two confronted each other for a long time, but Zhan Qianche never said half a word, until Bai Qianning turned around and left with red eyes.
Back at Xu's house, Bai Qianning couldn't detect any traces of crying on his face, but he didn't have any smile on his face all day.
......
Night
Grandma Zhao was already asleep, but Bai Qianning was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, but at this time, Xiao Douding suddenly got up.
I wanted to ask her where she was going, but I saw her tiptoeing as if she was going to sneak out.
Bai Qianning pretended to close her eyes again, and when Xiaodouding went out, she put on her coat and followed out.
She could almost conclude that this kid was going to find Zhan Qianche, so she didn't stop her along the way, just silently followed her in case she would encounter any danger.
Xiao Douding tiptoed to Zhan Qianche's house like this, since they left, the courtyard door didn't seem to be locked, or only when they lived there would Zhan Qianche consciously lock the courtyard door.
Xiao Douding walked straight up to the eaves, clasped the door with his fat little hand, and whispered Daddy twice, and the door opened.
