Chapter 5: Apples (3)
The grass is green, and countless slender and bright red petals flutter, making people's nose itch. The air was filled with the clear smell of the lake, and there was not a single cloud in the sky, nor a ray of sunlight in the sky.
A few short and immature children suddenly appeared, jumping around Bai Xiuwen twice, and then ran away like a gust of wind mixed with flower petals.
Bai Xiuwen watched them leave, vaguely feeling that the back of one of the children was very familiar, she took a step and retreated, the reluctance and concern in her heart permeated, and then disappeared.
The scene shifted, the world turned twice, Bai Xiuwen seemed to be standing in the whirlpool of a tornado, looking at the green, blue, and red mixed together, and the colorful pigments slowly deepened and turned black.
The head was dizzy, as if some thread had been tightened, and it was tense and alive, and it was hoarse. The lower part of the shell seems to be cracked, and the pain is terrible!
Pain.
Pain.
It hurts......
The faces of many people are fleeting, and they want to raise their hands to grab them, but they are so heavy that they can't move no matter what.
The tip of her tongue suddenly touched something, bitter to the extreme, sliding down her throat with the warmth she desperately needed...... Choking, Bai Xiuwen opened her eyes, and the gorgeous world was far away, leaving only an empty ceiling, and a strange medicinal fragrance filled the air.
"Master, she's awake."
"Well, I'll talk to her alone. You go and see the little girl, don't hug it. β
"Master, I will hold the child."
"Well, go ahead, don't hug it."
There was a slight sound of footsteps, and the boy who spoke first pushed the door and went out, while the latter sat next to Bai Xiuwen and said softly, "Can you hear me?" β
Bai Xiuwen responded vaguely. There was a cloth rubbing at the corner of her lips, and the man was wiping her mouth, delicate and gentle.
"You slept all day, and before you fell into a coma, you gave birth to a girl, born prematurely, but she was healthy. I am the physician who heals you. β
Bai Xiuwen looked at the man. He wears light gray clothes and has a restrained temperament.
He is not Yu Quan.
Bai Xiuwen slowly closed her eyes.
"Want to see her? Your child. β
"Woo......"
"What?" The man in gray approached, and there was a little black mole on the side of his handsome and thin cheek, I don't know if it was a tear mole, but it was just right.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiuwen felt strengthened, looked directly into the man's eyes and said seriously: "No, I don't want to see her." β
"Well," the man in gray smiled, leaning back naturally, looking pleasant, "You hate little girls?" β
Bai Xiuwen bit her lip.
She hates her.
Ten days ago, Bai Xiuwen even thought about selling the child to human traffickers as soon as it was born, and making two dollars by the way. But although he was born in a Qinglou, he didn't know the black way, and he couldn't find any human traffickers at all. Moreover, Bai Xiuwen is very beautiful, and it is a big trouble to find human traffickers, and some of them will sell women who can give birth into the deep mountains and old forests.
Unexpectedly, before I had planned what to do with the child, I was born prematurely.
"Since you don't want it, give it to me."
It's almost a declarative sentence, and the tone is flat, as if a trivial matter that he doesn't care about at all is casually sent from the man's mouth.
Bai Xiuwen's eyes widened, and the man smiled with a wide smile: "I saved your life, with the amount of bleeding you had during childbirth, ordinary doctors couldn't save you, but I succeeded, one life for another, so my rewardββ"
Without further talking, the man in gray stroked her messy hair, still gentle and delicate.
The child's matter was solved.
But Bai Xiuwen was very weak, she didn't have the energy to think about anything, her eyes were sometimes sloppy and sometimes focused, she didn't understand what this doctor was trying to do, and subconsciously whispered softly: "Yu Quan." β
The man tilted his head, puzzled.
In the next room, the boy teased the baby, and the little girl grabbed the boy's thumb, sucked and bitten, opened her teeth and danced for a while, and there was no half drop of milk, and she cried uncomfortably "wow".
"Don't cry, don't cry, what's wrong, Master! She cried! Master! The boy ran to the next door in a hurry, and when he could not wait for the man to get up, he ran back uneasily.
"Woo woo wow...... the little girl cried heartbreakingly.
The man in gray threw a sentence of "have a good rest" and hurriedly went to the next door.
"Master, look what's wrong with her!"
"Pee?"
The man in gray was sluggish, and he couldn't do anything in the face of the little girl who was swaying, and he was stunned for a moment, "I just changed my diaper, I should be hungry - Chi Ran, cook rice soup." β
"Ready!"
The boy named "Chi Ran" scooped a spoonful of thick rice soup and fed it to the baby girl.
"Wait, the girl next door hasn't finished drinking the medicine yet, she's not feeling well, and she can't take the bowl by herself." As he spoke, the man snatched the bowl and spoon and fed the baby girl himself, "Good, let's eat." β
The cotton cloth that wrapped the little girl's body spread out, revealing two small feet: "Hmm, ahhhh β
The man in gray fed her a spoonful, and after making sure that she had not peed her pants, he rewrapped it to avoid catching a cold.
"Master, let me ......" The boy looked at him with a blank look, he wanted to feed, but Master didn't let him touch it.
"Still not going?"
"Oh." The boy is gone.
The little girl is not good at eating, and she learns to spit bubbles.
"Isn't it fun? What a fool, little fool. Slow down. β
The man in gray smiled like a warm sun, occasionally laughing with her, the little girl's eyes were hooked, stunned for a moment, choked, and blushing.
The man was worried, so he immediately put down the bowl and picked up the little girl: "Reckless, it's always like this, it's not intentional......
The voice was low and gentle, and the little girl listened to it, sleepy.
The soft and fragrant little thing in her arms fell into a dream, and the gray-clothed man's cheek touched her bare head, and his eyes were like water and tender.
The other side.
"Girl, drink the medicine." The boy held the medicine bowl and blew, "It's not hot." β
"Thank you."
The boy was stared at by the beautiful Bai Xiuwen, a little embarrassed, he was only thirteen years old, how could he be called "you"?
Bai Xiuwen smiled reluctantly and asked:
"Who is your master?"
***
The carriage back to the mansion shuttled through the streets of Luoyang, even in big cities, hawkers are indispensable, at this moment Mrs. Le lifted the curtain and said: "Qusen, there are many different landscapes in Luoyang." β
Can you enjoy the scenery with me?
Le Qusen was silent, turning his fingers, thinking about the attitude of the saint.
Mrs. Le has long been used to it, her hand grabbing the curtain trembled slightly, and she said melancholy: "I'm afraid I won't have a chance to see it again in the future." β
No response.
After driving for a while, the carriage stopped, and the maid Lier and a group of servants stood guard at the gate, looking anxious.
"Master! You're all right......"
"Shhhh Mrs. Le got out of the car behind Le Qusen, was unsteady and pounced to the side!
"Be careful."
Le Qusen hugged her thin waist, and his posture rotated, hugging Mrs. Le's whole princess.
"Madame, I was too careless." The sound of Le Qusen seems to contain the vitality of spring.
"Thanks to Qusen. Put me down, everybody see. β
"No, I haven't hugged you for a long time, I can't bear it."
The maid Li'er was very happy, and motioned to the other servants to give way, saying, "The relationship between the old lady and the old lady has always been so good!" β
hugged all the way, the two entered the house, dispersed the subordinates, Mrs. Le consciously pushed her husband away, and stood up in a proper manner, while Le Qusen also kept a polite distance.
Relatively wordless.
Respect each other like guests.
After all, he spoke first: "Recently, the Holy Lord may summon you and me frequently, remember to breathe at night, otherwise the Holy Lord's body will not heal in time, and the consequences will be clear." β
"The concubine understands."
"Solid foundation. Yuan Qi needs to be accumulated from time to time, you are the Golden Yuan God, you should exercise your body, usually staying in bed for too long will waste your critical qualifications. β
"Concubines keep in mind."
Le Qusen nodded, and turned to leave.
"Wait, Qu Sen," after hesitating for a few seconds, Mrs. Le whispered, "Mother urged to have a child before ......"
"Then let's get ready to have a baby."
"Ah...... Good. β
"Is there anything else?"
Mrs. Le shook her head.
So he turned around and left, and there were many things to do in his new position, and he had to work overtime.
