Chapter 20: Companionship
This man had a soft flesh that he could snuggle up to as if it were the only source of warmth in the world, and his fingers rubbed the soft satin that covered the flesh.
His fingers twitched, and he stopped rubbing.
"Have you ever hated someone, but you will be nostalgic for this person." Zhou Rong suddenly asked.
"We feel all of us in a love-hate relationship."
"You're talking nonsense! For example, we can also say that we have a love-hate relationship with our parents? ”
"Even for parents."
"How dare you say it! Don't you know that Heaven and Earth are the Venerable Masters? ”
"Are you using Confucian standards to rebuke me? Don't you know that I'm from the Daomen? I only know that heaven and earth are not kind, and all things are used as dogs. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Rong was silent for a while before he spoke again:
"Is there any, is there a kind of person, everyone says she is a good person, they all say that she is very good to you, but, but, you feel ......" Speaking of this, Zhou Rong didn't know how to continue.
The fine sand in the hourglass next to the wall was sliding silently, and just when Zhou Rong wanted to open his mouth to continue what he had just said, the last grain of fine sand slipped quietly.
"The time limit has come, and we can continue next time." Zhang Weizhao said gently.
"Time limit! Time limit! Is time frame that important? Zhou Rong slammed the bed and stood up: "I won't come again next time." ”
I tidied up my clothes and pushed the door open.
However, the next time, he still arrived as scheduled.
The first four times, he stayed indoors for half an hour, and then Zhang Weizhao knocked on the door and went in. On the fifth day, in just a quarter of an hour, or fifteen minutes, he opened the door. Zhang Weizhao, who was waiting not far from the door, showed a surprised look. This surprised look made Zhou Rong very proud;
"It occurred to me that this wasn't all that interesting. I still want to talk to you even more. ”
Zhang Weizhao came in and closed the door, smiling approvingly.
"But don't get too happy. I'm really tired of these days, maybe I'll do it again in a few days. ”
"As long as you can control yourself the first time, there will be a second and a third. You have to know that it is control that is not annihilation, you don't need to eliminate it completely, you just need to be the master of your own desires, not to be harnessed by it. ”
"You mean I'm sneaky, don't let anyone know, right?" Zhou Rong laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Being sneaky is also an ability, which means you have to have a sense of space and know what kind of things to do at what time and in what place." Zhang Weizhao also smiled.
Zhou Rong nodded. He was accustomed to Zhang Weizhao's novel words, and he could roughly understand what she was saying.
"In the future, when you become a parent, you can also take this as a kind of boudoir pleasure, as long as the other party accepts it and does not hurt yourself and the other party, you can try to use any form."
When Zhou Rong heard this, his smile slowly faded, and he put on an unusually serious face: "Shall I call my mother to propose to your master?" ”
"Not good." Zhang Weizhao did not hesitate.
"Don't be in a hurry to answer badly, you listen to me first!" Zhou Rong was a little anxious: "I think in this world, only you know me best, and I know you." If the two of us are together, I swear you'll be the only one in our lifetime! This is true whether you are rich or poor, young or old! ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Rong's young face shone brightly, and his eyes stared at Zhang Weizhao with longing and concentration.
Zhang Weizhao sighed in his heart: empathy is the most difficult link in diagnosis and treatment. "Let's discuss why you make such a request every once in a while."
"Even if you are a monk, you can be vulgar, right? What's more, what kind of monk are you? It's just a matter of studying medicine with the Taoist. Zhou Rong didn't seem to hear Zhang Weizhao's words.
"It doesn't matter who I am."
"My mother wouldn't say yes. Even if she doesn't agree, I will swear to heaven that you will not marry in this life. I will ask her to willingly recognize you as a daughter-in-law. ”
"Zhou Rong," Zhang Weizhao looked at Zhou Rong's eyes, "marrying me won't make your situation better all of a sudden. There is only one way to solve your problem, and that is to face it yourself. No one can solve your problem once and for all, you have to face it and deal with it for a long time. ”
Zhou Rong sat down on the soft couch, leaned back, turned sideways, and shrunk himself into a ball.
"I'm scared." His voice sounded fragile and immature, like a child sounding through his chest.
"What are you afraid of?"
"I'm scared to be a person again."
"Why do you feel like you're alone?"
"I've been a human being since I was a kid. Father and mother, as long as I study well, I can glorify my ancestors. They don't know, and they don't want to know what kind of person I am. You know what kind of person I am, but you don't want to be with me. In the end, Zhou Rong had already put on a nasal voice, and it seemed that he could cry at any time.
"Have you told them how you feel?"
"I can't tell them. They just want me to be smart and resolute, to be safe and serious, and to be of great use, if they know, if they know......" Zhou Rong's voice became lower and lower.
Zhang Weizhao did not speak, and remained silent.
"I was scared when she touched me with her hand and pinched me." Zhou Rong tightened into a ball, holding his knees with both hands.
Zhang Weizhao knew that this "ta" was not any person Zhou Rong had mentioned before. This is the first time Zhou Rong has mentioned TA. The dark shadow lurking behind Zhou Rong finally emerged.
"You were a kid at the time, and it was normal for you to be scared."
"Sometimes, however, I like to sit on her lap and she holds me and shakes me."
"People need to be close to people, and all children need to be touched, touched, and hugged."
"My father was always away from home, and my mother was always busy. I would love for my mother to give me a hug. But she told me to be sensible and told me to go to the nurse and not delay her in managing the house. ”
Nurse, sure enough, is a nurse. Zhang Weizhao's anger rushed up, whether in his previous life or in this world, most of the people who violated children were very close people. But no matter how many such examples he has seen, Zhang Weizhao has never learned to be calm about this.
She took a few deep breaths to calm herself.
But Zhou Rong was very sensitive to Zhang Weizhao's every move, and immediately noticed Zhang Weizhao's emotional ups and downs, and asked before she could speak: "Are you angry?" ”
"That's right! But I'm not mad at you. ”
"Are you angry with the nurse?"
"That's right! I'm mad at her, very, very angry. Whoever violates a child deserves hell! Zhang Weizhao replied very bluntly this time.
"Are you feeling sorry for me?"
Zhang Weizhao let out a sigh: "Yes." ”
"Can you hug me, then?"
Zhou Rong's voice was like that of an innocent and helpless child, Zhang Weizhao admitted that she was shaken at the moment, and she wanted to respond to Zhou Rong's request and hug him like a baby. But she said:
"I'll be here with you."
After saying this, a period of silence followed.
In this silence, Zhou Rong and Zhang Weizhao both seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief.
Zhou Rong is tempting Zhang Weizhao. His mentality is very contradictory, he is afraid of being abandoned, and tries to have a closer and lasting connection with Zhi Zhang Weizhao, but if his temptation succeeds, he will feel very lost. Because Zhang Weizhao who accepted his conditions was no longer a powerful person who could help him, but a little woman who needed to rely on him to get a rich life.
But no matter what conditions he offered, Zhang Weizhao was unmoved. This not only made him feel lost and helpless, but also gave birth to a strange sense of pride, as if a voice said in his heart: Look, you didn't believe the wrong person.
Zhang Weizhao rejected him, but did not abandon him. She is still here with him, quiet and steady.
Zhou Rong didn't speak, his heart felt very stable, and his curled limbs slowly stretched out a little.
In the blink of an eye, the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching in late spring and early summer. On the fourth day of the fifth month, Zhou Can's family set out to have a banquet at the house of his uncle Zhou Liang in the Northern Zhou Mansion.
Every year on May 4, the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, the eldest princess of Fengqing and the concubine Zhou Jing will go to the Northern Zhou Mansion to send male yellow wine and pomegranate flowers to Zhou Liang and his wife, and the Zhou clan will also visit the two elders in the Northern Zhou Mansion on this day.
On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the princess and his wife will go to the palace to participate in the royal celebration, first to shoot willows at the Temple of Heaven, then to race dragon boats in Xiyuan, and then lead the Dragon Boat Banquet to drink, enjoy flowers and eat zongzi. Everyone had no objections, and everyone naturally hoped that the princess and the colt would be valued as much as possible.
On the fourth day of the new year, the Zhou family, whether it is a close relative or a side branch, dressed up their sons and daughters and reminded them to deal with them carefully, if they can enter the blue eyes of the princess and the concubine, it will naturally be of great benefit to their future.
The people of the Zhou clan all arrived at the Northern Zhou Mansion early, waiting for the princess to arrive. At three o'clock, the princess frame came to the door. According to the national ceremony, the men and women were divided into two columns to salute the princess in turn. After that, we will meet according to the clan lineage.
Ren's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have always been very dignified in front of the princess, and after the greetings, the princess went to the flower hall to enjoy the coolness, and Ren, Dong Zhenzhen and a group of female relatives came to talk to the princess.
The princess wore a true red Ruyi moire Xiucai Luan jacket today, a royal blue pleated skirt, and a gold and ruby Sanyang Kaitai button on the collar of her neck.
Buttoning the collar was the prerogative of royal women, and only concubines and princesses could wear this accessory.
Despite her noble status, the eldest princess of Fengqing has always been gentle and kind, and has never oppressed people with power. Usually very filial to his in-laws, every year during the New Year and Zhou Liang's birthday, they have to offer their own clothes, shoes and socks to their in-laws. Therefore, he won the respect of the horse Zhou Jing and the Zhou clan.
Ren and Dong Zhenzhen flattered the princess and laughed. Dong Zhenzhen is very funny, her voice is crisp, and her speech is neat, which is very popular with the princess.
