Chapter 45: The Wish
Xiahou Ying served Situ Danfeng, who drank tea, and his mood finally improved, and his face finally eased.
"You all step down first, I just have a girl here." Situ Danfeng waved his hand lazily at Luo Qiyue, and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
After all, this is not the first time that Lao Taijun dares her to go, although Luo Qiyue's face is slightly pale, she still has a respectful smile on her face. didn't say much, and left the Danyang Pavilion directly with his mother-in-law and maids.
Luo Qiyue is gone, although Xiahou Yan still wants to see if Xiahou Ying's attitude towards him has improved, but it is inconvenient to stay, so he can only get up and leave. Situ Danfeng naturally didn't stop him, he also waved his hand and let him go.
When the room was completely clean, Situ Danfeng slowly opened his eyes and lovingly dragged Xiahou Ying, who was rubbing his shoulders, to his side.
Situ Danfeng first stroked Xiahou Ying's white and tender little hand, and then raised his hand to stroke Xiahou Ying's right cheek, and said with a look of regret, "Alas! It's obviously a beauty billet, why do you make your face like this? ”
Xia Houying lowered her head slightly and bit her lower lip, she didn't want to tell her grandmother that the scar on her face was fake, mainly because she didn't want her grandmother to know what kind of sinister environment she was living in now, which would worry the old man.
"When I was less than a year old, my mother was very sick. Once, she accidentally knocked over the freshly cooked decoction and spilled it right on my face......" Xia Houying lowered her head and whispered. These are not lies, Lu Wanxin's biological mother Xu Meiting used this method to hide from the world and pretend to ruin Lu Wanxin's appearance.
"What a poor child, your mother must be distressed......" Situ Danfeng stroked Xiahou Ying's left side of her face with pity, her eyes glistening with tears.
"She's dead...... Xia Houying replied in a whisper.
"Alas!" Situ Danfeng sighed helplessly, hugged Xiahou Ying into his arms, and comforted, "It's okay, there will be grandmother who will love you in the future!" ”
Xia Houying gently leaned on her grandmother's arms, feeling the warmth she hadn't felt for a long time, only to feel a sour nose.
"Good boy, tell grandmother what you want or want to do, and grandmother will definitely help you achieve your wish." Situ Danfeng patted Xiahou Ying's back and said.
Hearing her grandmother's words, Xia Houying's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, she originally thought that she would have to wait a little longer, but she didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon!
Xiahou Ying sat up straight and looked at her grandmother seriously, "Xin'er does have a wish. ”
Situ Danfeng smiled kindly at Xiahou Ying, and said with tenderness in his eyes, "What kind of wish, you can say it." ”
"Xin'er wants to go to the academy to study." Xia Houying said with a serious face.
"Studying at the academy?" Xiahou Ying's request surprised Situ Danfeng a little, but it was also very pleasantly surprised. She originally thought that the godgranddaughter in front of her was from a small family after all, although she had a good temperament and was smart, but her vision might not be too high, and what she wanted was nothing more than some gold and silver jewelry or something, but she didn't expect this godgranddaughter to be an ambitious girl!
"Want to go to college? What's so difficult about that, I'll send someone to arrange it for you tomorrow. Situ Danfeng replied very cheerfully.
However, Xiahou Ying listened to Situ Danfeng's words, but she didn't have the slightest joy, but shook her head, "Grandmother, Xin'er doesn't want to go to an ordinary academy, Xin'er wants to enter Luming Academy!" ”
