[58] What is love?
There are two soft sedan chairs parked in front of the gate of Taishi's Mansion, and it seems that Wang Yun is really powerful, and he made up his mind to take me back early in the morning.
I shook off Wang Yun's hand fiercely.
"Come home with me." Wang Yun looked at me, his gentle expression was the same as the first meeting in Hedong.
"Even if everyone in the world thinks I'm Diao Chan, you and I both understand that I'm not." Looking coldly at the man dressed in white in front of me, I slowly spoke.
"Don't you feel sad?" He looked at me with a gentle and cruel expression, "If it were me, I would definitely recognize which one is the real you." ”
"So what?"
"He can't even tell who the woman in his arms is, won't your heart hurt?" He raised his hand and gently touched my face.
"yes, it hurts, it's going to die." I grinned so hard that every nerve in my face gripped my heart and hurt so badly.
"If it's me......" he began, gently and calmly.
"If it's you, even if I change my body, even if I only have a soul, you can still recognize me, even if I flee to the ends of the earth, even if I escape to the Shura Underworld, you will not let me go!" I gritted my teeth fiercely, my face distorted a little, "You, can you not be so ghostly?!" ”
Wang Yun pursed his lips slightly, he looked at me and did not speak.
"Why destroy my happiness again and again, why should I be deprived of my existence, why can you always do such cruel and excessive things to me with a gentle face, why can you destroy other people's expectations so easily?! Shatter all happiness! "The apparent calm was finally shattered, and I began to be hysterical.
He still stood still, quietly watching me.
"Wang Yun, I rarely hate someone, but now, I really hate you." I think my current appearance must be distorted and hideous, "I really hate you, if I could, I would kill you with my own hands." ”
"It's okay to hate me." He looked at me seriously and actually laughed slowly, "As long as you are by my side." ”
"Why?" My fingertips sinked into my palm, and I looked at him, "Why do you have to keep me by your side?" ”
He was slightly stunned, as if he hadn't thought about it.
"Marry me as Mrs. Situ?" I looked up at him, "And then?" Giving birth to a bunch of children for you? But if that's all it takes, Diao Chan loves you so much, why don't you want her? ”
He took a step back, his face slightly stiff.
"You like me?" I approached him.
He was slightly stunned.
"How much do you like it? Or, not just like, is it love? You love me? How much love? "I'm pressing every step of the way.
It was the first time I had seen him look like this, and I was a little dazed.
"Don't you love me?" I was so close to him, close enough to feel his faint breathing.
He stepped back, and for the first time, I saw the confusion on his normally calm face.
"Love ......" he opened his mouth, and his voice even carried a hint of trepidation and hesitation.
Suddenly remembering when he was drunk last night, my heart was slightly astringent. Has no one ever taught him what love is, and no one has ever loved him before he met Diao?
His father, mother, brothers, and even his master...... Didn't love him?
This man who is always gentle-looking, does he really know what love is?
"Do you know what love is?" I laughed bitterly.
He was speechless.
"Love is a heart, love a person, miss him all the time, worry about his safety all the time, see him hurt, it will hurt more than him, see him die, hate to die for him! Love is a sweet burden, obviously hard, but willing; Love is a subtle happiness, even if it is hard, never give up......" I looked at him, word by word, slowly spoke, what simple words, how easy, but ...... When you really fall in love with someone, you are using your whole life to fulfill these few simple words that anyone can say.
He looked at me, stunned.
Don't you really know?
My heart began to grow, I don't know what love is for a man, before Diao Chan, no one has ever loved him, no one has ever taught him what love is......
"I love you." He spoke suddenly, and told me with certainty.
"You don't love me." I shook my head and smiled a little sadly, "If you loved me, you wouldn't have forced me to do this." To love someone is to make him happy, just like now, I won't disturb Dong Zhuo's happiness...... You just lack warmth...... That's not ...... love."
"Before I was five years old, no one taught me to speak." He looked at me and suddenly said, "I remember, once I was poisoned and almost died, and when I was struggling on the verge of death, I said one sentence over and over again, 'I'm uncomfortable', which is like the pain of ten thousand ants devouring my heart and dying, I will only use 'uncomfortable' to express it." His usual gentle eyes stared at me, "No one ever told me what love was, and no one told me how to love...... his voice was low, panicked like a child.
Listening to him, I was silent.
I can't be soft-hearted, I can't be soft-hearted, my happiness has been shattered, why do I have to work hard to support other people's hopes? What's more, he is the one who ruined my happiness with his own hands.
"If I let go now, will you still smile at me? It's like the Moon Tower in the east of the river......" He smiled softly, and there was a hint of expectation in his gentle eyes.
I froze, looking up at him incredulously.
That's it? Just a few words, and he let go? That's it?
I suddenly wanted to laugh, so much fear, so much misfortune, but he let go with just one sentence......
I really laughed, leaning forward and backward with laughter, holding my stomach, standing outside the Taishi's Mansion, I couldn't stop laughing until the sky swirled and fell into darkness.
When I woke up, Guo Jia was next to me, and he said that Wang Yun sent me back.
I'm still laughing.
I thought it was a dead knot, but it turned out to be loosened with only a slight pull. Fate played a big joke on me, but because of this inexplicable joke, I lost Dong Zhuo.
The little poisonous tongue Liu Xie became the emperor, Liu Wei was demoted to the king of Hongnong, Dong Zhuo still monopolized power in the imperial court, Lu Bu became the Marquis of Lu Wen, Wang Yun was still loyal to the royal family, and Princess Wan was still the arrogant and noble princess.
Everything seemed so far away from me. I don't know, and I'm not interested in knowing, how it is developing within the high palace walls.
Sometimes, I get resentful.
I would think, why, why is this happening! Returning here with great anticipation, how could Dong Zhuo not recognize me, how could he even admit his mistake with a smile......
My heart has fallen into eighteen layers of hell, but when I think of his happy expression that day in Liangzhou, I really can't break his happiness.
If you know the truth...... What will he do? That woman has his flesh and blood in her womb, what can he do?
The weather is getting colder and colder, but this winter is particularly strange, not even a single snow has fallen.
Actually, I am a person who is afraid of the cold, because of Dong Zhuo, I like winter. But now, I'm so cold that my teeth are chattering.
What is the meaning of Diao Chan's last words that day? I couldn't figure out what she was going to do next, and even after two months, there was still no movement at all.
So, I simply didn't want to stay, stayed in Guo Jia's pastry shop, in addition to eating, sleeping and sleeping every day, I bullied Xiaomao, and managed the finances of the pastry shop by the way.
It's just that Cao Cao has never heard from him, and he has never heard Guo Jia mention him. I remember that Cao Cao once said that Guo Jia was allowed to stay in Luoyang because he had something to do with him, although I didn't know what Guo Jia was doing for Cao Cao, but I never asked.
I began to get used to being lazy, I began to get used to turning one eye open and one eye closed, and sure enough, I was the happiest fool in the world.
Wang Yun may occasionally come to the pastry shop, bring some dim sum, and then sit quietly and watch me eat dim sum.
I squinted and ate to him.
Wang Yun said that Lu Bu went to Situ Mansion several times, saying that he was looking for Diao Chan.
I don't squeak, I just eat snacks.
I almost forgot to mention that there was an extra white food eater in the pastry shop, and that guy could sleep better than me, twelve hours a day, and he slept for almost ten hours.
"Zilong! There's no water, get some water! I shouted at the top of my voice.
The answer to me was a loud snoring.
Three months ago, I paid for his stay at the inn, but a while ago I found him drunk on the street, a puddle of mud, unable to move. I relented and picked it up.
"Go yourself." With a mutter, he sat down in front of the fire with the scales in his arms and continued to nap.
"Don't pretend to be pitiful to me, do you want to say that poor this girl can't compare to you?" I stepped forward and pulled his face, poor for such a handsome face that I had ravaged and deformed, "At least, you still have a good skin, and I'm a dominatrix!" Maybe, I won't be able to get married in this life! "Well, I think I'm jealous that he's better looking than me......
"Woe comes from the mouth, the two people over there are waiting to marry you......" Pouting, Zhao Zilong complained.
The corners of my mouth twitched slightly, and I cautiously turned around, and saw a guy dressed in white looking at me with a gentle face, and then turning my head sideways, the guy with the apron I made around his waist was also looking at me with a pair of clear innocent eyes.
With a press on my forehead, I grinned and kicked the guy who was talking badly.
"Ahh You want to kill someone! Zhao Zilong jumped up and glared at me angrily.
"You have been in the pastry shop for two months and five days, and the breakfast, lunch and dinner meals add up to eight dollars a day, a total of five twenty-eight dollars; In the meantime, I will buy you two sets of clothes, each set of thirty-six dollars, a total of seventy-two dollars; And you occupy my place, and you will count you as twenty dollars after removing the odds in two months......" I pulled the self-made abacus, and I calculated that the head was the way, and the tiger was full of wind.
This is to return the body of others in the way of others! Hehe, to put it bluntly, it's a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, and feng shui takes turns.
Zhao Zilong's face turned blue, and he finally turned around and obediently fetched water.
I turned around, ignoring the appearance of the two men on the side with their eyes out of the window, and nestled in Zhao Zilong's original position, leaning on the fire to nap.
When people are cold, they especially like the feeling of warmth.
But no matter how hot the fire was, even though my limbs were hot and my head was hot, my heart was always as if it was in the ice and snow, and I couldn't warm it back.
Zhao Zilong, do you feel the same way?
"Gollum ......"
What's being called?
swept around, saw two pairs of extremely innocent eyes, and then looked down at his stomach, only to find that it was time to sacrifice to the Five Organs Temple.
"Ruoruo, rouge cake!" Guo Jia smiled and brought the pastry, looking very courteous.
"Eat every day, don't you get tired?" On the side, Wang Yun gently sprinkled a little cold water.
Guo Jia turned around and glared at Wang Yun with clear eyes: "Strange, Lord Situ's spacious and comfortable Situ Mansion doesn't live, why do you come to this small shop to join in the fun?" ”
"Ah, yes, the door-to-door is a guest, doesn't Guo Xian's nephew even understand such a simple truth?" Wang Yun sighed lightly.
"Wang Situ is an elder, and he thinks he is filial piety and rude." Guo Jia's innocent face aggravated the word elder.
I sat by the fire and watched them fight, and I was used to such scenes.
"If you keep fighting, the daylilies will be cold." I yawned, sleepy.
"Daylily? Is it tasty? Name the menu and I'll do it for you, how? Wang Yun smiled, with a serious face.
"A good pillar of the country, how can he be so unprofessional, I really don't know where all the food in the imperial court has eaten......" Guo Jia chuckled.
I squinted, and the two guys in front of me looked like two smiling foxes......
Maybe Wang Yun reports to this pastry shop every day, not necessarily to see me, there are always some other reasons, such as tabooing someone who hasn't appeared for too long......
"Water! It's ready! On the side, Zhao Zilong glared at me fiercely.
"So fast?" Stretching comfortably, I don't want to think about it, there is not much happiness, stealing a little is a little. Smiling and sitting up, I raised my hand and pinched Zhao Zilong's arm, "Wow, sure enough, the person who practices martial arts is not covered!" ”
"It's better to use your brain than to use force......"
"A wise man lives a long ......"
The two on the side suddenly spoke together with a tacit understanding, and then looked at each other again.
I was slightly stunned, lost my laughter, and then soon stopped laughing...... Because neither of them has lived as long as Zhao Zilong......
It was a joke, but I couldn't laugh because I knew what was going to happen to them.
Coldly shaking off my hand, Zhao Zilong glanced at the two literati next to him: "Don't frame me, woe to the water." ”
I laughed and put my hand on his shoulder, perhaps because I knew he had someone else in mind.
If...... Life can sustain such a ...... Not bad either.
I thought that such days would go on forever, but in the end, I realized that in such an era, there was such a deliberately maintained peace, and such a false peace...... It's all a luxury.
The surface was scabbed, but the wound underneath the scab was rotting unconsciously......
A peaceful life didn't last long.
In the evening, someone from the palace summoned him, and Wang Yun hurriedly left the pastry shop.
When the last trace of sunset disappeared in the sky, Guo Jia began to close the shop.
I sat by the window, looking boredly across the street. Suddenly, a chill fell to the tip of my nose.
I was stunned for a moment, staring at the tip of my nose as if I was cross-eyed, motionless, and the small piece of crystal object had melted into a transparent drop of water on the tip of my nose......
I stretched out my hand, and more and more crystals fell on my hand, turning into water and sliding between my fingers.
Snowing?
Finally...... Snowing?
The heart, which I thought had long been unconscious, began to ache faintly.
When I was two years old, a man told me with a smile, "In the future, as long as it snows, it will be Xiaoxiao's birthday." "He had hazel eyes and long, slightly messy hair.
Every winter since, I have received many, many birthday presents. This year, is there anything else?
Squinting, I suddenly felt a little sour in my eyes.
The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and it was already a world of snow. I grabbed the snow from the window lattice, formed it into a ball, and threw it with my hand. One, two, three......
I suddenly jumped up and grabbed Zhao Zilong, who was sleeping on the side, and Guo Jia, who was preparing dinner: "Let's go, let's go build a snowman." ”
As a result, building a snowman turned into a snowball fight, and of course, I was the only one who laughed "squeak".
It was already dark, and Guo Jia was physically exhausted and went into the house to rest first.
"If you like someone so much, how can you say that you give up and give up?" I looked sideways at Zhao Zilong.
He turned his head to look at me, his originally beautiful and handsome face was full of beard, his hair was simply tied back of his head, and he was dressed in coarse cloth clothes, completely lacking the chic of the white clothes and gold threads of the past: "Ask yourself." ”
"In this era, women always suffer more, and she ...... It should love you, otherwise, she wouldn't treat a broken wooden comb as a treasure......" I said lightly, "Everyone has a lot of helplessness, if you hold on a little longer, Wan'er she ...... Maybe it won't be so one person. ”
"You don't hate her?" When Zhao Zilong said this, he was a little surprised.
I smiled and said, "It's just a different position, if I were her, maybe it would be the same, and even more vicious." ”
Zhao Zilong raised his head and was silent.
I know that the woman's weight has not weakened in his mind, how could a guy who could ask for money and die because of that woman's words, give up so easily?
He couldn't bear to object to what Princess Wan insisted on, even if she was hurting herself, but as long as she insisted, he would not object. But, when she is in danger, this guy will protect her even if he fights for his life.
