Chapter 20: Tanabata
Wang Zhili found Cheng Qing's house familiarly, and stood at the door waiting for Cheng Qing to take out Wang Xiaoshan, who was already sleeping in the guest room.
Wang Xiaoshan looked thin and small, thinking that he didn't have much weight, but who knew that Cheng Qinggang felt a little difficult when he walked out of the door, let alone walked to the gate.
Wang Zhili was full of eyesight, saw Cheng Qing's slightly stumbling steps, stepped forward, and started to pick up Wang Xiaoshan first.
"I almost fell, but I'm glad you came to help." Cheng Qing smiled and rubbed his arms.
"The boys are heavy, and I'm tired of you."
"It's nothing, I happened to be passing by today to pick him up, but I promised Xiaoshan that I would pick him up when I had time in the future." Cheng Qing was quite embarrassed: "Although I shouldn't agree to such a thing, Xiaoshan's expression makes me have to agree." So there may be some gossip in the future, and I apologize in advance. ”
Wang Zhili frowned and said: "It's not good for you, I will tell Wang Xiaoshan, this matter doesn't have to be taken seriously." ”
"How can you go back on what you promised your child." Cheng Qingzheng said: "It doesn't matter if I have a business, I will handle it myself, and this matter will be decided." It's not too early, so I won't keep Brother Wang. ”
Cheng Qinggang wanted to close the door, only to hear Wang Zhili say, "I'm sorry." ”
After closing the door, Cheng Qingcai slowly closed the door and let Wang Zhili and his son leave.
When Wang Xiaoshan was about to get out of school, Cheng Qing went out to pick up Wang Xiaoshan, but far away at the door of the private school, Wang Zhili was already standing there.
Cheng Qing stayed where he was, frowning dissatisfiedly, but he had no choice but to turn around and leave.
For a few days, Wang Zhili stayed at the door of the private school, not letting Cheng Qing pick up Wang Xiaoshan, but Cheng Qing couldn't run to Wang Zhili to scold him, he was angry and had nothing to do.
Cheng Qing was in a bad mood, Xiaoyun and Liu Niansi felt it, and they were also trembling, and they didn't know how to persuade to do things, so they had to act cautiously not to make Cheng Qing unhappy.
"Ouch, little ancestor, you're finally here..."Xiaoyun brought Wang Xiaoshan, who was knocking at the door, into the door: "Go and chat with your aunt, make him happy, don't look so ugly these days!" ”
Wang Xiaoshan nodded and patted his chest: "Wrap it up on me!" ”
Cheng Qing is practicing calligraphy in the study, and when he is usually depressed, the best way to relieve his mood is to write, which will make him calm down.
"Aunt Shuang, I'm here..."Wang Xiaoshan popped his head out of the door and said with a smile: "Aunt Shuang, I'll take you to play." ”
"No, no." Cheng Qing didn't raise his head, and said resolutely.
"Aunt Shuang, are you angry with me?"
"You know!" Cheng Qing said unhappily: "It's obviously something we said was good, but you suddenly regretted it." How? Do you think your aunts are easy to bully? Still don't want to see me anymore? ”
Wang Xiaoshan turned his head away from looking at Cheng Qing's eyes, and said hesitantly: "It's my father who said it, he said that if I let you come to pick me up, the people in the village will definitely gossip, you are Shuang'er, you shouldn't let you suffer." ”
"So what are you doing now?"
"I'm going to take you there!"
"Not afraid of gossiping?"
Wang Xiaoshan shook his head and said with a smile: "Today is Qixi Festival!" The town must be very lively today, and there must be two women and men mixed together, how can there be gossip? ”
"Qixi Qiqiao Festival?" Cheng Qing has not had this festival since he left the capital, and more often than not, he stays at home, anyway, there is nothing to do before and after.
"Mm-hmm, the town is lit up, it's beautiful! I'll just go out with my aunt, and then my aunt will be happy, okay? Wang Xiaoshan said expectantly.
Cheng Qing said with a smile: "Do you know what day the Qixi Festival is, what kind of fun do you a child go to join!" ”
"What's wrong with the kids?" Wang Xiaoshan excitedly took Cheng Qing's hand: "Let's go, let's go, it's too late if you don't go!" ”
Cheng Qing was pulled by Wang Xiaoshan to run, Xiaoyun and Nian Si ran together, Cheng Qing ran with Wang Xiaoshan with a smile, and his mood improved a lot.
Cheng Qing and Xiaoshan sat in the carriage in front, and Xiaoyun and Niansi sat in the carriage in the back. There were a lot of people in the carriage, and most of the children in Cheng Qing's carriage were chattering, but Wang Xiaoshan rarely spoke, only listening to the children over there.
Cheng Qing patted Wang Xiaoshan: "Wait a minute, you will definitely make trouble, lean on your aunt and sleep." ”
Wang Xiaoshan nodded with a smile, obediently leaned on Cheng Qing's shoulder and fell asleep, Cheng Qing was dizzy by the rickety carriage, and also leaned on the carriage and fell asleep.
The town is really as lively as Wang Xiaoshan said, there are lights everywhere, the lanterns of the shops are hung up, and the people on the road are happy women, all of them are holding purses in their hands, looking very happy.
Xiaoyun and Niansi accompanied him, Xiaoyun saw this scene, and said with envy: "If you give a beautiful woman a purse, a good thing can be done." Tanabata Cowherd and Weaver Girl meet, as long as you give your purse to your beloved, if that person has a heart, she will naturally go to the woman immediately to propose marriage, and this family affair can be done. ”
"If you don't answer, it won't work?" Nian Si didn't understand the reason, he had indeed heard a lot before, but he rarely came out, so he didn't understand these things.
Xiaoyun shook his head: "What do you say?" The man doesn't want to disappoint the person who loves him, so he will generally take it, if he doesn't have the intention, he won't propose, and the woman will know the situation and will give up. ”
"What if the family refuses?" Wang Xiaoshan also asked curiously.
"Eh..."Xiaoyun was stunned by the question, she actually only knew a rough idea, if it was true, she didn't know very well.
Cheng Qing said with a smile: "If the family is against it, but Lang has a concubine who is interested, the two of them can secretly meet and express their hearts, and then beg their parents to agree to the family affairs, and it is good for the parents to agree, if they don't agree, I'm afraid they won't be able to dependents." ”
"It's still Aunt Shuang!" Wang Xiaoshan held Cheng Qing with all his might, Cheng Qing pinched his nose and praised him for being smart.
Cheng Qing still likes quiet places after all, so he left the three of them and found a quiet teahouse to sit down, but unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance.
"Little Mandarin, why are you here?"
The little mandarin is Lifeng's personal maid, and her being here means that Lifeng is also here.
Xiao Yuan was also surprised to see Cheng Qing, she saluted and said: "Childe is in the teahouse in front, I am tired and don't want to leave, but I am hungry for refreshments here, so let me come over and buy some." Is Cheng Gongzi out to play? ”
"You're not surprised that I'm here?"
Xiao Yuan smiled: "Don't hide it from Childe, I met Childe in an alley a few months ago, but I didn't dare to ask if I wasn't sure." It happened that this time, General Nian and Young Master Mei came to visit Gongzi, and when I talked about Cheng Gongzi, I had the heart to remember. ”
"I see." Cheng Qing suddenly realized: "Since you have met, then take me to meet Lifeng, I haven't seen you for many years, I don't know if he still remembers me?" ”
"Of course I do." Xiao Yuan took the tea he bought and led the way in front: "Gongzi also said that he would visit Cheng Gongzi for a while, and it was fate to meet him today." ”
"It's too fateful to say. Today's event, I guessed that Lifeng and Hu Min would come out, but I didn't expect it to be such an encounter, but it was also unusual. ”
"Yes."
Xiao Yuan led the way, and Cheng Qing followed closely all the way, and found Lifeng and Hu Min on the second floor of a lively teahouse.
"Meet Feng Gongzi." Cheng Qingli saluted thoughtfully.
Lifeng was very surprised to see Cheng Qing, threw the child on his body to Hu Min on the side, and personally helped Cheng Qing up: "I thought about looking for you for a while, but I didn't expect to meet you here." ”
"Young Master Hu."
"Cheng Gongzi."
After the two sides said hello, Cheng Qing sat down, and he looked at the child Hu Min was holding over there, with a hopeful expression on his face. Lifeng, who was familiar with what happened back then, understood and put his son on Cheng Qing's lap: "Here you are, my son is afraid of life, so he will take care of it." ”
Cheng Qing didn't expect Lifeng to do this, as soon as the child who came into contact with a stranger didn't react and cried, Cheng Qing hurriedly shook his legs and hugged the child affectionately to make him more comfortable.
The movements were very skillful, and it seemed that he had been prepared, which made Lifeng look even more sad.
"His name is An An, not long after he turned one year old, he either eats or sleeps all day long, and occasionally howls in his throat to make me and Hu Min anxious, which is simply a sin in the previous life."
"Then send it to me, I will definitely help my son raise him for nothing!"
"Very good, take it."
"Really?"
"Hmm..."
Cheng Qing kindly coaxed the child: "An An, call Aunt Shuang, I am Aunt Cheng!" ”
An An babbled something that no one could understand.
"He is only one year old, do you think he is the reincarnation of the Holy Child?" Lifeng dipped some tea with chopsticks and stuffed it into An An's mouth, An An's mouth was cute.
"It's time for him to sleep, give the baby to the little mandarin." Cheng Qing was playing lively, leaving Feng and not caring about the world, Hu Min could only speak.
Although he was reluctant, but the child had to sleep, Cheng Qing had to reluctantly give the child to Xiao Yuan, and finally kissed him secretly.
Xiao Yuan left with An An, and Cheng Qing and Mrs. Lifeng were left in the box of the teahouse.
"I heard Nian Minghe say, you live in Wangjia Village now?"
Cheng Qing nodded: "It's been a while, it's good over there, I'm very comfortable." ”
"That's fine." Li Feng took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I came here for Tanabata today?" ”
"What can I do on Tanabata?"
"Aren't you going to find another sweetheart?"
"Lifeng, such a thing can't be forced." Cheng Qing knew what Lifeng wanted to say, and was grateful to him for thinking about himself and sorry for him: "And I don't have such thoughts now, so it's better not to mention it for the time being." ”
Lifeng sighed and said: "Originally, I didn't want to persuade you, but I heard Nian Minghe say, you are still too lonely, no matter what, it's good to find someone who can accompany you for a lifetime, even if you don't have children, you can be happy, right?" ”
"What if we find someone like that again?"
"You're too pessimistic." Lifeng was quite dissatisfied: "If you really have a heart, are you afraid that you can't find someone who treats you well?" ”
