Chapter 33: Winter Snow I

Wu Zhen was very surprised, as soon as the car arrived at the bridge, she lifted the curtain and shouted from afar: "Hey, we are here." ”

Wen Fei waved his hand to this side and walked over slowly. In the snowy weather, he was wearing a half-worn gray coat, and the snow flakes were fluttering all over the sky like catkins, Wu Zhen hurriedly said: "You come to our car - by the way, why are you here?" Did you know we were going to be here today? ”

He got into the car. Fortunately, there were only me and Wu Zhen in the car today, and I didn't walk with others in the same car, although the car was not too warm, but it was always much stronger than outside. As soon as he got into the car, he brought a chill all over his body, and the chill on his eyes, face, and hair became moist and moist when he met the warmth in the car.

"After receiving the letter you are coming, I will calculate the itinerary. I was supposed to have arrived in Xunzhou, but since it was snowing and I was delayed for two days, I should have arrived here today. ”

I looked at him, and he was a little thinner than the last time we met, and seemed to be a little taller. Maybe it's my delusion. I asked softly, "How long have you been standing here?" If we can't cross the bridge now, how long will you have to stand? It's so cold, people should freeze to death. ”

"It didn't take long."

How could it not be for long? Even if he could estimate the day, he would not know exactly where we would be today and tomorrow, let alone when we would be there.

Weather like this awaits here......

He smiled at me, I felt a slight panic in my heart, and hurriedly asked, "You have something to do at home, and you came out to pick us up?" ”

"The family is busy, but it's all someone else's business, I can't intervene, it's noisy, and I just come out quietly. You have traveled thousands of miles to the capital, and if you are not familiar with the place, you will be accompanied. It's always better. ”

Wu Zhen looked at me, then at Wen Fei, and the smile on his face deepened: "Okay, don't be polite." He came to greet him on purpose, that is a piece of his heart, let's just receive his kindness. Next time he wants to go to Wanhua Mountain as a guest, we will also welcome hundreds of miles early, so as to show our sincerity in hospitality. ”

All three of us laughed.

"You say there's already a place to stay?"

"Yes, we live in my father's old friend's house, and I have been to the capital once. It's just that I didn't stop much in a hurry, and this time I can take a good turn and take a look. ”

I handed him the stove in my hand. He didn't answer.

In this way, our eyes inevitably touched each other.

It was snowing heavily, but inside the carriage it felt warm and hotter.

Wu Zhen didn't know if he didn't notice my embarrassment. Still found out but didn't pick it out, she asked Wen Fei about the people in the capital, what the houses in the capital are like, what the people in the capital eat and wear. What does the palace look like? Wen Fei smiled and said, "You can see all of this with your own eyes." When the time comes, I'll be my guide and lead you on a tour of the whole capital - it's a pity that it's winter, if it's summer. You can go to Taiqing Lake. If it's autumn, you can go to Jiuyang Mountain. Now it's freezing cold, I'm afraid there is nothing to see. ”

I slowed down for a while, felt that my face was not so hot, and then said, "I heard that there are beautiful ones in winter - there is an ice lantern festival in the capital." I heard that it was very lively. ”

"That won't be until the fifteenth day of the first month, so it's far from now." There was a hint of hope in his tone: "If you can stay in the capital until that time." Let's take a look. I can also carve it, I have carved peony lamps and carp lamps before, and people who have seen them say that they are good. ”

In the evening, we rested in Jiangzhou, which is the north-south traffic artery, although the weather is not good, but it is still prosperous and lively. Wu Zhen shouted that he was tired of the day, and he would go back to his room to rest after dinner. She was in a very harmonious atmosphere, waiting for her together, but we were cold, you look at me, I look at you, I smiled at him, and he smiled at me.

But no one spoke first.

He lifted the pot and poured tea for me: "I thought you couldn't come...... Then I followed your letter, and I couldn't stay at home for a moment, and I didn't sleep much that night, and I left at dawnβ€”"

"Hmm."

Noticing that his movements were slightly weird, I keenly asked, "What's wrong with your hand?" ”

"It's nothing......" he subconsciously shrank slightly, and I stared at him.

"It's really nothing." He smiled bitterly: "It's just that when I was sparring with people a few days ago, I was slightly injured and I'm already getting better." ”

If it had been a minor injury, he wouldn't be what he is now.

"Let me see."

He coughed lightly and turned his face to the side: "The wound is in the shoulder...... Not too ...... It's all right. ”

I'm going to be upset and hurt in the shoulder...... Then it's really inconvenient for me to look at it.

"Have you been medicated? With whom do you move? ”

He slowly lowered the teapot, and the wind outside became tighter, and the snowflakes were blown against the window, and the window paper rattled.

"It's our writer...... The family examines their children every three years...... The winners can go into the Tibetan Sword Building to read books and practice swords......"

I remember that he said that the Wen family had a hidden sword building, and that was the place he dreamed of entering.

"That'...... You ......"

Did he win or lose? Will he be able to enter the Sword Tower?

He came out alone to greet me now, although he was still personable, but there was a faint look of solitude between his eyebrows.

"I won the first man of my generation, my brothers...... and they are all defeated by my sword. His hand was raised, as if to touch his shoulder, but he lowered it again: "This sword is...... My father stabbed me, he said that I was from a humble background, unfilial, and unscrupulous, and my heart was not right, even if my swordsmanship was ten times better, I was not qualified to enter the Tibetan Sword Tower......"

The more he spoke, the lower his voice became, and the last two sentences were so low that he could barely hear them.

I was stunned, and then I felt a rush of anger rise in my chest.

What kind of father is this? How can a father say that about his child?

I didn't have a mother when I was a child, and my father was ...... me That's really the pearl in the palm of your hand, meticulous, both a father and a mother. When he taught me, he was strict, but he was usually very kind. I believe that no matter what good things are, my father will always be the first to think of me.

But Wen Fei's father ...... Is it really the biological father? How can he hurt people in front and hurt people in the back? said that his son was from a humble background, so what is he himself? Yes?

Wen Fei comforted me in turn: "It's okay...... I'm used to it. Growing up, no one looked down on me. When I was studying, they couldn't memorize the book, and the gentleman only gave me two sentences of instruction, and if I couldn't memorize them, I would be punished and beaten on my knees. When they were learning swords, they kept their hands on practice, but when they practiced with me, they took a very heavy handβ€”although my surname was Wen, I seemed to be even more humble than a servant......"

He spoke calmly, but I felt anger fill my chest and want to burst out.

"Don't be angry."

His hand was on the back of my hand, and it was clear that the room was warm, but his fingertips were still cold: "Don't be angry about this. When I was young, I couldn't hold my breath, I couldn't figure it out, I just felt that heaven and earth were unfair, and I wanted to raise my fist and knock them all down to the ground and trample them a hundred times...... That hatred and humiliation cut me apart like a knife...... But now I understand that I want to work harder than all of them, and be more successful than all of them! Someday ......"

The candle flame flickered in his eyes, and it was amazingly bright. (To be continued)
