CHAPTER XIII

This poor little snake spirit lived in the man's house, the man wrote well, and there were many people in the radius who begged him to write inscriptions, and he lived comfortably by buying and selling his own calligraphy and paintings. Ah Kite was still hostile to him at first, but Wei Shuxuan was also a patient master, and he also knew how to please this little girl, and every day when he came back, he would bring some delicious snacks to Ah Kite every day.

One bright and warm afternoon, Wei Shuxuan was writing in the study, and when he looked up, he saw Ah Kite quietly by the door, his face full of curiosity. "Come in, Ah, Kite. He beckoned, and the kite got permission and ran in. She watched Wei Shuxuan write stroke by stroke with a brush, pointed to the brush and said, "What is this? Can you eat it?" Wei Shuxuan couldn't laugh or cry, "This is called a brush, you can't eat it, you little gluttony still thinks about eating." Ah Kite stared at his brush tightly, every word he wrote Ah Kite was surprised, he looked at Ah Kite's funny appearance, and said softly: "Ah Kite, do you want to learn to write?" Ah Kite raised his little face, "Think." ”

Ah Kite followed Wei Shuxuan's style with a pen, and learned his writing decently, but because her wrist strength was not enough, and the posture of holding the pen was wrong, not to mention that she was illiterate, and the words she wrote were not so much words, but more like the charms given by those fortune tellers on the street to ward off evil spirits. Wei Shuxuan looked at the crooked font on the rice paper, smiled and shook his head, "Come, I'll teach you." He wrapped his arms around Ah Kite from behind, personally held her hand, straightened her pen holding posture, gave her weak wrist enough strength to be calm, and wrote one stroke at a time. Ah Kite seems to like the feeling of writing very much, and with each stroke she writes, her eyes widen as if she has discovered something terrible, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously rise. "Do you know what words are written?" Ah Kite shook his head, Wei Shuxuan pointed to the two big characters on the paper, and said word by word: "Ah, Kite." It's your name. "Kite a" Kite muttered, she looked up, "And how is your name written?" He didn't seem to expect her to ask this suddenly, then he smiled and wrote his name on the paper again, Wei Shuxuan.

Since then, Ah Kite no longer runs around, and practices writing on the table in his room every day, always writing the names of himself and Wei Shuxuan. In the end, Wei Shuxuan's name was written much better than his own name. Wei Shuxuan would praise her for her progress every day and reward her for eating some delicious food, and after Ah Yuan got his affirmation, she became more and more fond of writing. And the first love for Wei Shuxuan was also born in this stroke.

One day, Ah Yuan ran to the study to find Wei Shuxuan, pulled his sleeve and said, "Ah Xuan, what does it mean that men and women are not kissed." "Even I can't get too close to you, and you can't get too close to me. Wei Shuxuan seemed surprised, "How do you know this word?" "Aunt Li said, she told those sisters in the kitchen that I misbehaved, I don't know what it means to be intimate, I heard it when I passed by the kitchen. Wei Shuxuan's face gradually became gloomy, "Why can't I get too close to you." "Well, that's just a general meaning, and you don't have to care about it after two people get married and get married. "If it's a husband and wife, can I get close to you?" Ah Kite said happily: "I want to get married! I want to marry Ah Kite! I want to be with Ah Kite forever!" These words seemed to be a child's fairy tales, but they touched Wei Shuxuan's heart that had already softened for Ah Kite.

Originally, life could go on like this, but God has to give a ripple to a life that is too dull.

A woman suddenly appeared in their lives, judging from the conversation between her and Wei Shuxuan, her name is Mu Yuanling, and Wei Shuxuan is a childhood sweetheart, but Mu Yuanling is dressed in silk and satin, and her words are full of domineering posture, and it is not difficult to see that this is a delicate daughter. "Brother Wei, how can you, how can you live with such a woman of unknown origin!" Mu Yuanling, who was looking like a moon, completely ignored his posture at this time, blushed with anger, and unceremoniously pointed to Ah Kite's nose and asked: "Where did you come from, dare to hook up with Brother Wei!" As a real fox spirit, I trembled when I heard this. "Beautiful sister, you're so fierce, I'm a little scared. Ah Yuan shrank behind Wei Shuxuan, and Mu Yuanling, who was called by a beautiful sister, was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "I see, the mouth is sweet like this, no wonder Brother Wei is fascinated by the ghost." "Yuan Ling, how can you be so disrespectful. Wei Shuxuan protected Ah Kite, "Brother Wei, you were all oriented towards me!" Mu Yuanling stepped forward and pulled Wei Shuxuan's sleeve with a crying voice, "I've liked you for so long, how can you be deceived by such a little vixen." "Even if there is no kite, I will not want to marry you, since I was a child, your Mu family has treated me as my own, I think of the kindness of your Mu family, and treat you like a sister. Now you completely ignore my brother, and play the eldest lady's temper and insult Ah Kite here, where is there still a bit of a daughter's dignity. If you apologize to Ah Kite, I will not be guilty of today's incident. Mu Yuanling's face was full of incredulity, "I apologize to her, what is she?

"Why does Sister Mu hate me so much. Ah Yuan lowered her head aggrievedly, Wei Shuxuan looked at Mu Yuanling's back and sighed, turned around and gently picked up Ah Yuanling's face and said: "Yuanling has been pampered since she was a child, and some eldest ladies have normal tempers, don't worry about her." She doesn't dislike you, Ah Kite is so well-behaved and sensible, no one will dislike it. Only then did the kite grin.

One day, Mu Yuanling came to Wei Shuxuan with a basket full of herbs, and shouted when he entered the house: "Brother Wei, you see what good things I have brought you!" However, Wei Shuxuan was not there, only Ah Kite was there. Ah Yuan ran out excitedly and said, "Sister Mu, Sister Mu, what kind of good thing, Ah Xuan will come back after a while when he goes out to write." Mu Yuanling rolled his eyes, "I'll send something to Brother Wei, what's your business." Ah Kite paused and said, although she was a little lost, she still smelled a very strange smell, her face turned pale instantly, and she took a few steps back, "Mu... Sister Mu, what are you taking..."Mu Yuanling saw that her reaction was suddenly so strong, and she thought that she was afraid of herself, so she said proudly: "Oh, it's not that I went up the mountain to pick some good things, and I want to share them with Brother Wei." Ah Kite saw that in the basket she was carrying, there were a few horse chestnut lilies mixed with a variety of herbs.

The power of the horse chestnut is similar to that of the male yellow, and it has a great dispersing effect on snakes. Ah Kite trembled and stepped back, Mu Yuanling saw this, looked down at the basket, and then looked at Ah Kite, "What are you afraid of." "Sister... That... That grass... Can you take it out..."Mu Yuanling looked down at the horse chestnut lotus, and understood that Ah Kite was afraid of this thing. Naively, she thought that Ah Kite just thought that this herb tasted too bitter, so she took one out and gradually walked towards Ah Kite, "Are you afraid of this?" Ah Kite nodded, "This herb tastes really bitter, but the effect is good, sister don't pick your mouth." Mu Yuanling suddenly rushed forward and pinched Ah Kite's cheeks, forced her to open her mouth, and stuffed the Seven Leaf Lotus into her mouth. Ah Kite struggled in horror and wanted to spit it out, Mu Yuanling slapped her hard, and continued to pinch her cheeks to force her to chew and swallow. "Aren't you amazing, you can't stand it after suffering so much? You can't be more powerful!" Ah Kite pushed her away hard, fell to the ground and vomited, and vomited the crumbs of herbs along with the blood, "You... You... I didn't mean to, don't wronged me. Mu Yuanling tried to pretend that he didn't know anything, Ah Yuanling's face turned white, and he shrunk into a ball of convulsions while vomiting blood in pain, and his lower body gradually closed together, turning into the original snake tail.

Unexpectedly, I heard Mu Yuanling's scream, and Ah Kite's upper body gradually turned into its original form. Probably afraid of being seen, she twisted into the house in pain, hunched under the bed and refused to come out. Mu Yuanling, who was in a state of shock, sat on the ground limply, his eyes glazed, and it took him a long time to react before he trembled and crawled out of the house, just when he bumped into Wei Shuxuan who came back. She hugged Wei Shuxuan's leg as if she saw a life-saving straw, and cried breathlessly and said, "Snake... Snake... Coquette... Brother Wei... It's a snake...""What do you say? What's the matter?" The once-invincible daughter is now completely gone, crawling on the ground like a dog. Wei Shuxuan looked dazed, but the next second he saw the blood in the house, his brows instantly frowned, he squatted down and grabbed Mu Yuanling's shoulder and asked, "Whose blood is in the house, is there something wrong with Ah Kite!" Mu Yuanling howled and cried, pointing to the house and roaring: "You still care about her! That woman is a snake!" Wei Shuxuan's face was full of disbelief, seeing Mu Yuanling's almost crazy appearance, he left her and walked straight into the house, and followed the blood stains to the inner room. He bent down to look at the bottom of the bed, and saw a big cyan snake coiled under the bed, his face turned pale instantly, but he still shouted tentatively: "A kite?" Ah Kite heard the movement and opened his eyes, saw Wei Shuxuan, let out a cry like a baby, squirmed his body and moved out little by little, and slowly turned into a kite again. "Ah, kites... You..."Ah Kite was lying on the ground, the corners of his mouth were still bleeding, and he couldn't cry like a look, "Ah Xuan... Save me... Help me..."

I thought that Wei Shuxuan would be scared away when he saw her like this, but Wei Shuxuan still saved her. Ah Kite lay on the bed weakly, sobbing and saying, "Ah Xuan... I didn't mean to hide it from you... I'm afraid... I'm afraid you'll be afraid of me..."Wei Shuxuan sat on the edge of the bed with a cold face, "I want to hear you confess everything to me in person." Ah Kite wiped her tears, "I am a snake clan, I have no parents since I was a child, and I have no home, so I can only wander in the forest to live, find a hole to drill when it is cold, and eat some grass to satisfy my hunger when I can't catch food when I am hungry." Seven thousand years later, you rescued me in that forest, and you took me in and named me, so that I would no longer be beaten by the wind and rain, and I would no longer go hungry, and I would cook according to my appetite. You also taught me to write, taught me to learn to write my own name, and sometimes I was really in a trance and felt like I was an ordinary person. I want to be with you as I am and live with you. I wanted to confess all this to you, but I didn't dare, I was afraid that you would not want me, that you would kill me, just like the people who killed my Abba. Ah Kite hid her face and cried bitterly, and the next second she was hugged into a warm embrace, and Wei Shuxuan's warm voice came from the top of her head: "No wonder you love meat so much, you don't like to eat vegetables, you will be very uncomfortable when you are exposed to the sun for a long time, even if it is late at night, your vision is unobstructed." You're so bold to lie to me for so long. "I'm sorry... Ah Xuan... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to...""Then you'll have to make up for this mistake on your own." Wei Shuxuan gently touched her little head, "Marry me, okay?"
