311.
I said, "That's all?" ”
Chun'er said, "Yes, that's all. ”
This is not like Mu Jingchi's personality, he didn't ask much, if it was usual, Chun'er would have been called by him for questioning.
Chun'er saw that I was sitting there and didn't speak, so she asked again: "Miss, do you have chrysanthemum tea?" ”
I said, "No, I'm going to look for the little fish." ”
After saying that, I got up from the side of the bed and walked outside, Chun'er wanted to say something with chrysanthemum tea, but in the end she didn't say anything.
When I walked to the corridor outside the door, I happened to see Mu Jingchi sitting in the hall flipping through the newspaper, and Assistant Yu Hou beside him.
I stood there and watched for a few seconds, without many people staying, and continued to walk in the direction of Xiao Yu'er's room, and when I arrived at his door, the maid happened to come out of her room, and when the maid saw me, she called, "Miss." ”
I didn't care about the maid, just pushed the door and walked in.
When I got inside, Feng'er saw me and immediately retreated vigilantly, and I approached him, but at this time, I was like a man-eating monster in his eyes, and he retreated.
I tried my best to suppress my anger and asked him in a very calm voice, "Who did you call downstairs just now?" ”
He stubbornly replied, "Nobody, I didn't call." ”
He was still lying to me at this time, and I sneered and asked, "So what were you doing just now?" ”
Xiao Yu'er still refused to speak, and when he was forced by me to have no way out, he tried to push me away from me in front of him and run away from me, but he grabbed his hand, and as soon as I touched him, he began to struggle frantically, shouting: "You let go of me!" Let me go! Don't touch me! ”
Although my anger was at its peak at this time, I didn't want to make the atmosphere particularly bad at this time, so when he started to struggle, I let go as soon as he started.
When Xiao Yu'er saw that I let go, he immediately took a few steps back, and when he was clinging to the wall, he looked at me with a defensive look.
Seeing him like this, I tried my best to soften the emotions on my face, then slowly squatted in front of him and asked again: "Xiao Yu'er, tell me, who is the person you called on the phone just now?" ”
He still didn't answer me, his eyes were wary of me, his hands on alert at all times, as if if if I touched him again and he would attack me.
I ignored his vigilance, but continued to ask, "Did it give it to you Aunt Gu?" ”
I asked, but he didn't answer, let alone deny, his eyes still fixed on me.
After a long time, I smiled and said, "Also, I forgot, since you came here, you haven't seen Aunt Gu and them for a long time, if you miss them in the future, you can tell me, how about I take you over to see them?" ”
He didn't speak, and I smiled again and said, "It just so happens that I have something to talk to you about today." ”
As soon as I said this, he became extremely sensitive, and he even asked, "Are you planning to send me away again?" ”
I didn't expect him to ask me this, I came here to talk to him about it, and he took the initiative to bring it up, and I replied, "Yes, but not to send you away, but to let you live independently." ”
When Xiao Yu'er heard my words, he sneered and said: "I know, they all said that you didn't want to take me back at all, send me away, and you also went to Mr. Mu to ask for it, since you hate me so much, why did you say something like that to me before, did you treat me as a child?" ”
I said, "So, you just went downstairs to make a phone call, just to tell your Aunt Gu about this?" ”
He didn't speak.
I asked again, "Well, I'll ask you a question, and you answer me seriously." ”
He looked at me.
I said, "If I were to give you a choice between me and Aunt Gu now, you would choose who to follow." Before he answered, I added, "I want to hear the truth." ”
My eyes fell on Xiao Yu'er, and a trace of hesitation flashed on his face, but after hesitation, he said, "You are going to send me away from here, and what is the use of asking me who I want to talk to?" At least Aunt Gu won't dislike me, and she won't abandon me. ”
I said, "So, you chose Aunt Gu, right?" ”
When I got to this question, Xiao Yu'er didn't answer, and he fell silent again.
I asked him, "Why didn't you answer me?" ”
Xiao Yu'er said, "You must answer this question?" ”
I said, "Yes, definitely." ”
"I don't know," he said. After a while, he said, "I don't like Aunt Gu." ”
His answer surprised me a little, and after he finished answering, he said with a slightly unnatural expression: "I have answered you, I still have homework to do." He pushed me away from me who was in front of him, and just wanted to leave, so I immediately grabbed him and asked, "Why don't you like Aunt Gu?" ”
He didn't expect me to hold him, he immediately struggled and said, "You let go of me, don't drag me." ”
I didn't let go, and said with a smile: "If you don't answer me, I won't let go, you answer my question first." ”
Xiao Yu'er's face turned red, he was anxious, he said, "The Gu family is not my home, why should I follow Aunt Gu!" ”
He came to grab my hand and wanted to take my hand away from his wrist, but his strength was incomparable to mine, so I still easily buckled it and said, "So the Gu family is not your home, so you mean that you are willing to follow me?" ”
He denied it and said, "No, I don't want to, you let go of me, let go of me!" ”
He was struggling with me there, I just wouldn't let go, and when you were pushing back and forth, the smile on my face was put away again, and my hand took control of Xiao Yu'er's shoulder and said, "Xiao Yu'er, mother wants you to understand one thing." ”
My tone became serious, and his movements that he wanted to struggle with also paused, and he stiffened and looked at me.
I said, "It's not that I don't want you, it's not that I dislike you, and it's not that I don't want you to stay in the Mu family, the reason why I let you go this time is for your sake, this place is a place full of conspiracy." Yes, it is an incomparable honor to be the heir of the Mu family, but this honor is based on the premise of sacrificing one's own freedom, and even one's life may be buried at any time. But when you leave here, you can live freely, you can see the outside world, do what you want to do, live the life you want to live, love the people you want to love, Xiaoyuer, I want you to be happy, and always happy, do you understand? ”
He didn't speak, just looked at me.
I directly hugged him in my arms, put his head on my shoulder and said: "You believe me, the kind of life I am talking about must be happier than staying in the Mu family, you shouldn't come here, you shouldn't be taken advantage of at an age when you are still ignorant of everything, you should chase after what you want, when you are older, when you understand some things again, you will thank me for all I have done for you today." ”
Xiao Yu'er didn't push me away, let me hold him tightly, I don't know how long I held him tightly, after a while, I let go of him and said to him again: "Will you believe me this time?" ”
He said, "Get out of here?" ”
I said, "Yes, I have found you a house outside, and when you are an adult, I will send you to any country you want to go to, to the outside world to realize your dreams." ”
He asked, "What about you?" ”
I said, "I'll go and see you all the time." ”
When he heard my words, a hint of loss flashed in his eyes, but soon he added, "That is, you don't want me to stay here, you want to send me somewhere else." ”
I said, "Yes, but not abandoned, it's for your future." ”
When I saw that he lowered his head, I took the opportunity to hold his face and said, "You must believe me, and when you grow up a little more, you will understand my hard work for you." ”
He said: "I don't know if the kind of life you are talking about is good or not, I came here just to find you, Aunt Gu said, only I come here, I can live here with you forever, so I came, I didn't expect it to be so long, you have to send me away again, I just called Aunt Gu just now, just to ask her if there is any way to keep me here, but if you really want me to go, I will go, just like I said, I am not the child I was at the beginning, I should have lived independently, Naturally, no one should stick to it anymore. ”
This is the first time Xiao Yu'er has said so many words to me, and the emotion in his voice is no longer precocious indifference, but with loss and disappointment, like something he has been looking forward to, and it instantly fell into emptiness in his immature eyes.
He didn't look at me again, still keeping his head down, and the whole person was indescribably frustrated.
I looked at him like this, then raised my hand and stroked his head and said with a smile: "No, you are still a child, you have the right to stick to the person you want to stick to, just a little fish, everyone will grow up, when you grow up, you will find that you will learn to fly sooner or later, you just learn a period of time earlier than others, and when you can finally fly earlier than others, you will find that there will be many meaningful things in this world that you need to complete, understand?" ”
He lowered his head, still did not answer, at this time I found that there was a drop of crystal tiredness on his smooth face, just dropped on his black upper, his upper was patent leather, and the tear went down his vamp, quickly fell to the floor, I found out at this time that he was crying.
I took him in my arms again, didn't say anything, didn't move, just let him cry.
After a long time, he said, "Then will you go to see me?" ”
I said, "Yes." ”
He asked, "Can you come with me?" ”
When I heard him say this, I did not answer, but hugged him a little closer, and when he saw that I was silent, and had probably understood my answer, he asked no more.
After a while, a maid walked in from outside, and when she saw me holding the little fish, she waited at the door for a few minutes, and then couldn't help but remind: "Miss, sister-in-law Gui has prepared dinner, and Mr. asked me to call you downstairs for dinner." ”
When I realized that it was time for dinner, I let go of the little fish again, and then stretched out my hand to wipe the tears from his face, and said, "I will go to see you often, and I cannot stay with you, because I cannot leave here." ”
Xiao Yu'er said, "Why? ”
I crouched down in front of him and didn't answer him, and he said, "Is it because he won't let you go?" ”
Although he didn't say his name, I knew he was referring to Mu Jingchi.
I didn't know how to answer his question, so Xiao Yu'er said, "I can go and beg him, beg him to let me go, since he said that you are my mother, since you are my mother, we should live together." ”
I laughed, and laughed for a while, and then I smiled at him and said, "Why don't you go first, and when you grow up a little more, I'll go and live with you?" ”
He asked, "Really?" ”
I said, "When did I lie to you?" ”
When I saw that the maid was still waiting at the door, I got up from before him and said to him, "All right, let's go downstairs and eat, and then we will talk about everything when we have finished eating, and you will be hungry too." ”
He hesitated for two seconds before nodding.
I took him by the hand and walked outside, and he followed me quietly.
After arriving downstairs, Sister-in-law Gui was going to the restaurant with the dishes, she saw that I was leading Xiaoyuer downstairs, looking at us in disbelief, under her surprised eyes, Xiaoyuer seemed to be a little unnatural, so she struggled silently there, wanting to pull her hand out of my palm, but I didn't let go, just smiled at Sister-in-law Gui and asked, "Can you make shrimp balls?" ”
When Sister-in-law Gui saw me asking, her eyes naturally no longer fell on Xiao Yu'er, but said with a smile: "I have prepared it a long time ago, it is the dish that Young Master Xiao Yu'er likes to eat, can I not prepare it?" ”
After she finished speaking, she immediately greeted and said, "Go quickly, it's rare for Mr. to go downstairs for dinner, and I've been waiting for you and the little master in the restaurant for a long time." ”
I smiled, and then led Xiao Yu'er to follow Sister-in-law Gui towards the restaurant, and when I got there, I found that the restaurant was unusually neat today.
Not only Mu Jingchi was sitting at the table, but even Wang Zhizhi was sitting there, holding Xiaoyu'er.
Xiao Yu'er was a little restless when she saw the little fish I was holding in her hand, and she didn't seem to want to eat at the same table with him, but when he was about to speak, Wang Zhizhi immediately glared at him, and Feng'er sat there honestly.
Then, Wang Zhizhi smiled there and said, "You guys are here, the meal is hot, come and eat." ”
Mu Jingchi seemed to have waited for a long time, because he was sitting at the dining table flipping through the newspaper, and when he saw me coming, he put down the newspaper in his hand and said to Sister-in-law Gui: "Let's eat." ”
Sister-in-law Gui smiled and said, "Yes." ”
He quickly walked to the position of me and Xiao Yu'er, pulled the chair away for me, and said, "Miss, come and sit quickly." ”
Today's Mu family's restaurant is unprecedentedly harmonious, which I didn't expect.
I led Xiao Yu'er to that side, for me to lead Xiao Yu'er, Mu Jingchi was also a little surprised, but the accident was an accident, he didn't give too many strange looks, but took this matter as a very ordinary general, and when I led Xiao Yu'er to the table, I sat down together, Mu Jingchi looked at Xiao Yu'er and said: "Just now, your mother should have told you about the situation, and you should basically understand it." ”
Xiao Yu'er sat there and replied: "I understand a little." ”
Mu Jingchi saw Xiao Yu'er answer like this, so he hummed and said: "Since I understand, I won't repeat it, since your mother wants you to have a good and relatively quiet living environment, so in order to cooperate with her requirements, the housekeeper of the family has bought a house for you in the city, and you will live there for a long time from now on, since she is your mother, so you are also a member of the Mu family, and the Mu family will raise you until you become an adult. However, since your mother did not agree, this matter was naturally done, and from now on, we will continue to ask the best honest professors to teach you your coursework, and when you become an adult, you will choose whether to continue your studies at home or go abroad. ”
Mu Jingchi said this, paused for a few seconds, and then said: "The time to send you away is tomorrow, do you agree?" ”
Xiao Yu'er replied to Mu Jingchi: "Understood." ”
He said, "It's good to understand, since you understand, tomorrow morning the maid will pack up your things and take you to your new residence." ”
I said, "Can I go and stay with him for a few days?" ”
I asked Mu Jingchi.
When he heard this, he turned his attention to me again, and I said, "He is still young after all, and I am afraid that he will not adapt to the environment there and will be afraid, so I want to go and spend time with him." ”
Mu Jingchi said: "You always have to learn to be alone, and Steward Sun has already packed everything up over there, he has to face these things independently after all, and it doesn't make much sense in the past." ”
When I was about to say something, Mu Jingchi interrupted me and said, "Okay, everyone is here today, let's have a happy meal together." ”
Wang Zhizhi smiled and said, "Yes, Qingye, it's rare to be here today." Wang Zhizhi immediately said to Feng'er beside him: "Feng'er, hurry up and pick up some vegetables for your brother." ”
Where is the wind willing, pouting, sitting there refusing, and not moving.
When Wang Zhizhi saw her like this, she immediately pushed him again and said, "Hurry up, my brother will leave tomorrow." ”
Mu Jingchi retracted this decision, the happiest person is Wang Zhizhi, now that she wants to send Xiao Yu'er away, she has such a big threat, how can she care about what happened before.
He urged Feng'er again: "Quick, don't let me say it a second time." ”
Under Wang Zhizhi's compulsion, Feng'er could only sit there and twist for a while, and then grabbed the chopsticks symbolically and pinched something, then got up and walked towards Xiao Yu'er, and put the things on the chopsticks in Xiao Yu'er's bowl.
But after he finished clipping, he immediately ran, without saying a word to Xiao Yu'er, and quickly sat back in his chair, pouting and looking unhappy.
Wang Zhizhi didn't care what Feng'er's mood was, so he continued to smile there and said: "Now that Xiaoyu'er has been passed on to Qingye, then naturally follow Feng'er is a brother, and from today it is natural to love each other, I only hope that Xiaoyu'er can be healthy in the future, have excellent grades, and make steady progress, and I also hope that he will get along with his younger brother more, and I will often take Feng'er to visit in the future." ”
Wang Zhizhi's words were very popular with Mu Jingchi, and he said with a smile: "That's right, that's exactly what I mean, you two are not allowed to give me any more opinions when we meet in the future, so good, remember?" ”
Mu Jingchi's eyes fell on Feng'er and Xiao Yu'er, and the two of them were silent about his words, but after a while, Feng'er, who was sitting there, was urged by Wang Zhizhi to reluctantly say: "Remember, Daddy." ”
At this time, Xiao Yu'er who was sitting there didn't move, I also looked at him, waiting for him to answer, just when I thought he wouldn't answer, and was going to find a reason to round it for him, Xiao Yu'er actually replied: "Remember, Mr. Mu." ”
Feng'er uses the word Daddy, while Xiao Yu'er uses the word Mr. Mu, the difference between these two titles can be seen at a glance, Feng'er's face is full of pride, and he looks at Xiao Yu'er as if he is looking at an intruder and an enemy.
The little fish was silent.
Mu Jingchi naturally realized this, so he changed the topic and said, "In that case, let's dine over there." ”
As soon as Feng'er heard Mu Jingchi talking about opening the meal, she cheered happily there, and couldn't wait to reach out to the bowl on the table with chopsticks.
Wang Zhizhi was also very happy, this matter was so over, this was no different from a pie, and naturally she smiled happily and told Feng'er to be polite.
But Feng'er seemed to be swearing sovereignty, and said to Wang Zhizhi: "Why do I talk so much about etiquette in my own home. ”
Then, his eyes swept back and forth between me and Xiao Yu'er, then he snorted and continued to eat.
Mu Jingchi didn't seem to like Feng'er's behavior very much, but because today's meal was equivalent to seeing off Xiao Yu'er, he didn't say anything more, so he used this meal there.
This meal took half an hour in harmony, Xiao Yu'er didn't eat much, and soon went to his room, as soon as Xiao Yu'er left, only me and Wang Zhizhi were left on the table, and I didn't stay long, got up and said: "I'm a little sleepy, so I won't dine with you much." ”
Just as he was about to retreat from the dining table and leave, Mu Jingchi suddenly asked, "Don't you eat it?" He looked at the hardly touched food on my plate and said, "But the food is not the right one." ”
I said, "No, I'm just a little full, and I want to go back to my room to rest." ”
When Mu Jing heard this, he didn't force me anymore, but asked Sister-in-law Gui on the side to bring some more fruits to my room.
After that, I was about to leave the dining table, but at this time, Wang Zhizhi, who was sitting there, asked Mu Jingchi: "Jingchi, Xinlan said that there are several confidential documents on the presidential palace that she wants to look at you, and she asked if you have time in the past few days." ”
Mu Jingchi saw Wang Shuyi ask like this, he didn't answer for a long time, but he wiped the corners of his lips with a napkin, looked at the food on the table that was almost untouched, and said for a long time: "Did she let you ask?" ”
Mu Jingchi's voice was very faint.
