"Okay."

After being silent for a long time, Xu Yuan poked out most of her little head from the quilt, with a reluctant smile on her pale face.

Mrs. Xu next to her heard that the little girl in front of her was finally willing to speak, and she was surprised and happy for a while, and she didn't know where to put her hand, and replied: "Okay, okay, I want to eat osmanthus cake, right, mother...... I'll go. ”

"No need, stay with me for a while." Xu Yuan's voice had been hoarse before, she whispered, her eyes drooped, and she didn't know what kind of eyes to use to look at Mrs. Xu.

Xu Yuan could feel the swelling of her eyes and the numbness of her hands and feet, and she could also feel the concerned gaze of Mrs. Xu, but what she paid attention to was not what she perceived, but "perception" itself. She could still feel the sensations her body had given her, and she was alive and not lost in the countless deaths.

Xu Yuan didn't have the strength to speak again, and Old Madam Xu didn't know what tone to use to talk to her Shuyuan, so she was silent for a while.

Old Madam Xu tentatively leaned towards Xu Yuan and said, "Yuan'er, you must be hungry, you have been dizzy for three days." Without further ado, I told my servants to go and get some food. ”

Xu Yuan didn't speak, and nodded slightly. Three days, has she only been faint for three days?

The maid standing at the door got Mrs. Xu's eyes, immediately understood, and went to the small kitchen to get food when she was busy.

The atmosphere was still awkward, and it was as if a wall of ice had been erected between the two. Xu Yuan can feel this wall, and so can Mrs. Xu. But Xu Yuan didn't want to break through this wall, so Old Madam Xu didn't dare to melt it with her own temperature, and only dared to look at her through the wall.

The place where Xu Yuan is lying now is a small bedroom on the side of the main courtyard of Xu's house, which is the closest residence to Mrs. Xu, and it is also very close to Mrs. Xu's kitchen. After a while, the previous maids Shuqing and Shuyu came in with food boxes.

"Old lady, the bird's nest porridge has been instructed to be made by the kitchen people. Here we first brought ginseng soup, Yangrong tea, and a few stacks of good pastries. Shuqing said respectfully.

Mrs. Xu took the box in their hands with her own hands, put it on the cabinet next to the bed, waved her hand and said, "Okay, you all stand down." ”

"Yes." Shuqing and Shuyu curtsied and retreated with Xiaolan.

The food box is exquisitely made, with a total of three layers, and each layer is placed with different styles of pastries, osmanthus cake, poria cake, and Yinzi cake...... When the two food boxes are opened, the pastries inside can be arranged into a table.

Mrs. Xu asked Xu Yuan, "Do you want to sit up?" ”

Xu Yuan nodded, ignoring the hand that Old Madam Xu stretched out, and sat up with difficulty holding on to the wet pillow. As soon as she wanted to reach out for water to drink, Mrs. Xu handed the cup to her.

Xu Yuan took the cup and took a sip slowly, and his throat, which was almost dry, finally got a chance to breathe. She whispered to Mrs. Xu, "Thank you." ”

Mrs. Xu's eyes were both happy and sad, happy that the youngest daughter was finally willing to accept her a little better, and sad that the youngest daughter was still invulnerable. The reunion scene that she has been looking forward to for a long time makes Mrs. Xu really at a loss at this moment, she has not had the opportunity to meet such a scene for too long.

Mrs. Xu was afraid of startling her little daughter at this time, so she raised her voice very gently and asked, "You just woke up, let's eat something." I'll have the doctor show you later. "Previously, Shuyu invited the house doctor to come over, but Mrs. Xu stopped him, because she was afraid that Xu Yuan would not be able to adapt to the living again.

Who would have thought that Mrs. Xu, who can be called a majestic old lady on the outside and inside, would be so kind to Xu Yuan here. Mrs. Xu sighed, her children are all debts, she owes this little daughter a lot, since she can get it back, it will have to be repaid slowly.

"It's all up to you." Xu Yuan bared her teeth and drank the tea in small sips, the ginseng slices in the tea were too much of a hindrance, so she drank the ginseng slices directly and poured them into her mouth.

Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Yuan lovingly, only to feel that she was fine everywhere, even her little appearance of swollen eyes and baring her teeth drinking tea was very cute, and she asked with concern: "Do you want to eat some pastries?" It's too late to make it for you now, so I'll eat whatever you want, and then I'll make it for you. ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Xu picked out a piece of osmanthus cake that was carved into a flower shape and was very good-looking, and held it in front of Xu Yuan with a handkerchief.

The osmanthus cake is yellow and clear, and it looks particularly pleasing. But Xu Yuan doesn't like to eat soft things by nature, and only eats grains when she eats, not to mention soft and sweet things like pastries.

Looking at the small piece of osmanthus cake in front of her and the irrepressible expectation in Mrs. Xu's eyes, Xu Yuan hesitated, but still took it and put it in her mouth.

I don't know if it's because of the change of body or other reasons, the sticky osmanthus cake in the original memory became very palatable, Xu Yuan chewed two bites, and didn't feel very difficult to eat.

It is said that taste is the most clear and unchangeable memory of people, but even the likes and dislikes of eating have changed, so is this self still yourself?

Xu Yuan couldn't help but think like this, she sat quietly, and the tears that had just stopped fell down one after another.

Mrs. Xu had just let go of half of her heart, and she was hanging because of her little daughter's sudden tears, and she had the heart to persuade her, but she didn't dare to interrupt her crying.

When Xu Yuan's tears slowly stopped, Mrs. Xu was bold enough to lift the corner of the handkerchief and try to wipe away the tears for her.

Mrs. Xu herself was conscious of being pushed away, but she touched the handkerchief to Xu Yuan's face very smoothly. She was flattered, and she couldn't wipe her little daughter's white face any more lightly.

This caution should be moved even by onlookers.

Xu Yuan sighed almost inaudibly, and quietly asked Old Madam Xu to wipe the tears from her face, obediently as if she was really her daughter.

Xu Yuan opened his mouth and asked, "I...... Why did I get lost? ”

There is no way to have the idea of leaving, and I don't know when that voice will appear again, and I don't think it will be for her to do something good or good. The memory of the body that Xu Yuan accepted was not very clear, and there was no part related to the old lady Xu in front of her in the limited memory. Judging from Mrs. Xu's guilt for her daughter, this loss is bound to be strange.

Old Madam Xu was stunned for a moment, as if she was thinking about it, and said, "Let's talk about it later."

At this moment, Shuqing's voice sounded outside: "Old lady, the bird's nest porridge is ready." ”

This bowl of bird's nest porridge really came just right, and Mrs. Xu personally took the porridge bowl and handed it to Xu Yuan. The warm touch was transmitted from the bottom of the bowl to the palm of her hand, and Xu Yuan finally felt a little warmer in her heart.

After being hungry for three days, she drank the bird's nest porridge in one bite.
