Chapter XXXVII
Wu Zhen squeezed next to me, put down the embroidered basket, and said while removing the earrings: "I inquired about some things, and they all said that the Wen family is not a kind family...... It's scary to listen to. I said, if you really want to be good with Wen Fei, why don't you ...... How about bringing him to our house? ”
I was stunned, and then my face turned red: "What nonsense are you talking about......"
"I'm not talking nonsense, this Wen family has a lot of miscellaneous things, and it's no wonder that people don't get tired to death when they get along with such a family. Our family has little to do, and there is no shortage of food and clothing, if he really likes you and takes his mother out to spend with us, wouldn't it be good? ”
Wu Zhen's words sound too childish, how can a man in this year be willing to recruit except for a very helpless situation? If you recruit redundancy, in the eyes of the world, it is equivalent to abandoning the ancestral surname. is a son-in-law, almost like a slave and maid of that family, inferior, and ashamed to laugh -
"How could he be a son-in-law...... He is such a proud person, he will not be willing to kill him. ”
"That's right." Wu Zhen leaned his head on my shoulder and whispered, "That man looks modest, and he is very proud in his bones. ”
"Hey, you're so close, aren't you afraid that I'll give you my sickness?"
She ate and smiled: "Don't be afraid." It's good to be sick, and you can stay out of bed with a bright future. Anyway, on such a cold day, there is nowhere to go. ”
Although it was a joke, Wu Zhen really thought so if he couldn't keep it in his heart. If I get well, we will leave the capital, and she will be separated from the man surnamed Shang just now. But if she is also sick, we will naturally not be able to leave, and we will stay in the capital this year.
After a moment of silence, Wu Zhen whispered, "Wu Ning." ”
"Huh?"
The jasmine head oil on her head was fragrant and fragrant, diluting the medicinal gas that had been permeating the room. When you close your eyes, the room is warm, and when you close your eyes, you feel as if it has reached the season of jasmine blooming.
"Can we celebrate the New Year in the capital?"
"How?"
I thought Wu Zhen would tell her real reason. But she hesitated for a moment, but said: "The New Year is very lively here in the capital, besides, it is ice and snow these days, and the way back is difficult, why don't you go back after the New Year?" ”
I shook my head lightly: "The snow may not melt after the New Year, after all, we are guests in the Bai family, and it is not suitable to spend the New Year in someone's house after all." ”
She hung her head and whispered, "That...... If you go back. Can you do it physically? Also, when you go back, you and Wen Fei will meet again. It's not easy. ”
Yes, seeing each other is just as hard as parting. The capital is so far away from Wanhua Mountain, even if you write a letter, it will take nearly a month to go back and forth.
Wu Zhen doesn't want to leave, so why should I be willing?
"Wu Ning?"
"Huh?"
"You say...... People grow up. Is there so much to worry about? When I was a child, I was so happy, not cold or hungry, and I lived all day long. But as I grew up, I thought more and more about things, and I had less and less time to be happy. If only I didn't have to grow up. ”
"Stupid." I rubbed her hair: "How can people not grow up?" ”
My illness comes and goes quickly. I woke up the next day feeling much better.
When I woke up, I heard a muffled murmur from beside me, "Hmm? Is it dawn? ”
Wu Zhen was tired of talking to me last night, so he huddled around me and slept together. Her hair was stiff, and she had slept without a comb last night, and now it was rubbed like a bird's nest, unkempt.
"It's dawn," I dodged her amusefully, "and you see your hair is messed up like this." Wait until you comb your hair and scream again. ”
She reached out and touched it, and ouched. Lie back down: "It's so annoying, I forgot to braid it last night." ”
She sighed and got up, I was refreshed, got up to freshen up, drank the medicine, Yao Huang came in and said, "Miss Wuning, there is a Wen Feiwen son outside who asks to see me." ”
My hand paused, and I put the medicine bowl down.
Why did he come early in the morning?
Wu Zhen glanced at me and said with a smile, "Hurry up and invite Gongzi Wen in." ”
She pulled up her hair casually, pinned a hairpin, glanced at the makeup box, and picked up an ebony jade-inlaid hairpin and inserted it in my hair for me: "Well, that's good, I don't need to change my clothes, I'll take a look...... Tsk, that's a pity for me. ”
I glared at her, Wu Zhen didn't care, and closed the makeup box, and Yao Huang outside had already said, "Master Wen, please go this way." ”
Two of you? Who else?
Immediately, I understood, the young man who came in front of Wen Fei and one after the other, as soon as he raised his eyes, he showed a shy and sincere smile.
It's Min Dao.
"Huh? How did you get here? ”
"Coincidentally, I met at the door." Wen Fei's eyes were worried: "Are you sick?" ”
"Well, it's a cold, it's fine."
Wu Zhen asked Min Dao, "What are you carrying in your hand?" ”
Min Dao was a little cramped and whispered, "I'...... I brought some snacks, and I thought that Miss Wu Ning must not have much appetite to eat during her illness, so ......"
Wu Zhen took the suitcase: "It's just right, we haven't had breakfast yet, I'll see what kind of snack it is." ”
She lifted the lid of the box, and there were two layers of the suitcase, each of which was divided into two compartments, and all kinds of small snacks were neatly stacked inside. Wu Zhen smiled and picked one up: "What is this?" ”
"Yes...... Rabbit cake ...... "Min Dao was embarrassed, and his head had to be lowered to the collar."
The round rabbit in Wu Zhen's hand is snow-white and exquisite, with a pair of long ears, a pair of red eyes, round and fat, not much bigger than a pigeon's egg, just the amount of a mouthful.
"This looks like a dim sum, but it looks like it is carved from white jade." Wu Zhen praised and looked carefully: "These eyes are made of red bean paste." ”
"Hmm......" Min Dao explained in a louder voice, "The stuffing is also bean paste." ”
The grid next to this white rabbit bean paste cake makes people want to laugh - a row of neatly stacked ingots, that is called a golden yellow and clear, which is not much worse than the real gold ingots.
"Is this again?"
Min Dao coughed lightly and blushed: "This is the ingots cake." ”
In the next layer, there are all kinds of snacks that girls like, preserved peaches, dried apricots, pine nuts, kumquat cakes, Min Dao explained in a low voice: "If Miss Wuning is bitter when taking medicine, you can have some preserved fruits." He hesitated, and then pulled out a chubby, low, porcelain jar from his sleeve.
"What is this?"
"This ...... I've heard people say that it's good for wind chills and coughs, and it's osmanthus nectar - sick people always have bitter mouths, and it will be more comfortable to drink something sweet. ”
Min Dao is really careful and considerate - not only is he handsome and gentle, but he is also so gentle and thoughtful, and considerate everywhere...... After I was sure once again that he was not a woman dressed as a man, I could only sigh that this person must have been reincarnated by mistake, and it was a pity that he did not give birth to a daughter.
"Sit down."
Yao Huang brought the tea up, we tasted the dim sum brought by Min Dao with the tea, I liked the rabbit cake very much, held in my hand, so beautiful and delicate that people were reluctant to put their mouths. The filling is sweet and refreshing, not greasy at all. Wen Fei didn't make a move for so long, so I asked softly, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"It's fine." He smiled slightly: "Are you well?" Can I take the medicine on time? ”
"It's fine, it's fine, it's probably tired, and I catch a cold again." I asked softly, "I didn't see Aunt Yue when we left that day, how is she doing?" ”
"My mother's old illness has to come back at this time of the year, and the medicine has not stopped. It looks like the situation is better than last year, and I can sleep for two or three hours at night. ”
