Chapter 33: Depressed Xiao San
Just as Lilac was pondering, Ding Da, who was resting in the inner room, suddenly burst out with a coughing sound.
Immediately, Lilac rushed in in a panic, lightly helped Ding Da who was lying on the bed, and fed Ding Da water little by little.
Ding Da's cough was relieved a lot, Ding Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, covered the quilt tightly on Ding Da's body, and said in a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Dad, you cover the quilt well, otherwise what if you catch a cold and fever at that time?" ”
"Okay, good ......" Listening to Lilac's concerned words, Ding Da's miserable face finally had some blood, and his hoarse voice comforted Lilac a few words, and then closed his eyes a little tiredly.
Knowing Ding Da's body, Ding Xiang sighed helplessly, thinking that there was nothing she needed help with, so she sat on the edge of the bed, holding her face and watching Ding Da gradually fall into a deep sleep again.
These days, because Ding Da's arm was shot by bandits, the movement of his hands has been very inconvenient, and he will touch the wound if he is not careful.
But Ding Da is a stubborn character, he doesn't like to worry about Li and Lilac in everything, but he wants to do it himself, although it is the New Year's Eve yours, this can't withstand the cold.
Just now, Ding Xiang and Li didn't pay attention for a while, Ding Da directly accidentally burned the wound, and the fever began in the middle of the night, and it gradually subsided as soon as it dawned in the morning.
This also frightened Ding Xiang and Li, and resolutely did not allow Ding Da to do anything, forcing Ding Da to recuperate quietly in bed.
After all, looking at his pale and bloodless face, maybe a gust of wind could blow him down.
Glancing at Ding Da's chapped lips distressedly, Ding Xiang bit her lip sadly, and her lowered eyes were full of chagrin.
Originally, she thought that she had planned everything, and in this life, Ding Da would definitely not have any accidents.
However, the world is unpredictable, even under Lilac's precise calculations, Ding Da was still injured, if they hadn't found out early last night, it is estimated that Ding Da would have died long ago.
This also made Lilac deeply feel her powerlessness, originally thought that she would be able to protect her relatives without leaking a drop of water in her life, but it seems that all this is just her own passion.
"Heh......" Thinking of this, Lilac couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly, her young face full of bitterness that was not suitable for her age.
It seems that only by making yourself stronger can you really make your relatives no longer hurt in the slightest.
Looking at her white and thin palm, Ding Xiang shook it vigorously, knowing that she was powerless now, gritting her teeth, which strengthened her belief in her heart, even if she was desperate, she must ensure the safety of Li and Ding Da.
Thinking like this in his heart, a touch of coldness instantly crossed Lilac's eyes, and the air pressure around her body became extremely low.
But when his eyes touched Ding Dashi, who was lying on the bed with a sick face, he instantly retracted and became an innocent child again.
It just so happened that at this time, Xiao San gently pushed the door open, glanced at it, and sat silently on the edge of the bed with Lilac.
"Shh made a silent gesture to Xiao San, and Lilac tucked the corners of the quilt for Ding and quietly walked out of the room.
"What are you doing here, didn't you ask you to help your mother?" Looking at Xiao San, who had a tense face, Lilac's tone was a little impatient: "You don't even want to be lazy about this matter, right?" ”
As if he hadn't noticed Lilac's tone, Xiao San's face was flat, and he just said, "Mother asked me to call you over." ”
Before the words fell, he turned around and left directly, without looking at Lilac.
glaring at Xiao San's back viciously, Lilac suppressed the anger in her heart and ran to the Li family, who was busy in the courtyard.
"Mother, are you looking for me?" Taking over the work from Li's hands, Lilac pushed Li to the side of the stone bench and sat down, feeling a little sorry for Li's work so hard for the New Year.
Looking at such a sensible Lilac, Li's eyes were full of relief, and his daughter had grown up and knew that she loved her mother.
didn't resist Lilac's kindness, and sat quietly on the chair while doing embroidery work while looking at Lilac who was busy coming and going.
Xiao San, who went and returned, looked at Lilac's busy red face, and felt a little embarrassed, and others took the initiative to reach out to help with Lilac cable.
This has relieved Lilac of pressure a lot, and her attitude towards Xiao San has also improved a lot, is it still a few words, and Li Shi, who was watching, laughed out loud on the side.
The atmosphere was very harmonious for a while, and the family finally had a little New Year's atmosphere, not as quiet as before, and it was a bit of fireworks.
The haze on the door of the house because of Ding Da's injury finally subsided a little, and the atmosphere began to gradually ease.
Slowly, Ding Da's injury gradually improved, and he was able to get out of bed and walk around, and Ding Xiang's mood began to become happy as Ding Da's condition recovered little by little.
But Xiao San became more and more silent, and every time it wasn't for Lilac or Li taking the initiative to talk to him, he basically didn't speak anymore.
I always like to sit alone in the corner, not saying a word, looking at the sky and falling into my own world.
Lilac didn't know when Xiao San became like this, but she only knew that it seemed that she had such signs since before the Chinese New Year.
"Stinky boy, I heard that there is a lion dance outside today, do you want to go out with me to have a look?" couldn't stand Xiao San's silent appearance, Lilac took the initiative to invite Xiao San to go out to play together.
But Xiao San didn't seem to hear it, his eyes looked into the distance without focus, and he didn't know anything about the sounds of the outside world.
Frowning, Lilac reached out and gently pushed Xiao San, "Are you listening to me?" ”
However, what I didn't expect was that Lilac's slight action almost caused Xiao San to fall directly to the ground.
At this moment, Xiao San finally raised his head and looked at Ding Xiang as if he had just woken up from a dream, and his eyes were blank: "What's wrong?" ”
"......" looked at Xiao San helplessly, this was not a fake look, Lilac held her forehead with a headache: "I just told you, do you want to go out with me?" ”
Patting the dust on his clothes, Xiao San slowly got up from the ground and shook his head coldly: "I'm not interested, you go play alone, I'll go into the house first." ”
"Tsk."
Seeing Xiao San's cold attitude, Lilac put a cold ass on her hot face, and her mood was not very good, so she muttered in a low voice: "It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people, it's a waste of my time to care about you." ”
After that, he stomped his foot angrily and prepared to go out alone.
Before he had walked a few steps, he heard Li's shouting behind him, and his voice was still a little hurried, afraid that something would happen, Lilac hurriedly ran over.
