I chuckled inwardly.

It's not that I haven't thought about it, just like Li'er will know about me, of course she will know that she has a father, and Pei Yuanxiu is her "father", of course, it is different from the real father.

However, I haven't fully figured out how to tell her about her "father".

The man who is rich and powerful all over the world, the man who gave me endless pain, but also gave birth to such a lovely daughter with me; The man who will always stand at the top of power, and is destined to drift away from me and eventually part ways, what should I tell her father?

Just when I was stunned for a moment, Li'er in my arms said softly: "Mother, my father - is he the bad guy who locked you up?" ”

I suddenly came to my senses.

The spring night was still cool, I carefully uncovered the quilt and got up, put on a dress and walked to the center of the room, lit the candlestick on the table, and then returned to the bed with the candlestick, Li'er was already awake, saw me suddenly get up, and hurriedly sat up with the quilt, and saw me walking back with the candlestick, a little puzzled: "Mother......?" ”

I sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Li'er, who told you those words just now?" ”

Since she reunited with me, I have been kind to her, and I even want to give her all my qiē, but I haven't seen me so solemn, and I seem to realize something, and I mutter: "I...... I listened ......"

"I don't care who told you anything, but there are some things that my mother wants to make clear to you."

“……”

"What kind of person is your father, I think different people will have different opinions, but even if he is really a bad person, everyone in the world can say the same about him, but there is only one person who can't, this person is you."

"I-" She was stunned for a moment, and pouted as if aggrieved, "I haven't seen him before......"

"Just because you haven't met him doesn't mean you're not his daughter. Father's essence and mother's blood are born into adulthood, which is the greatest kindness of heaven and earth other than the creation of man, and you are born of this kindness. It is indeed a great favor for others to raise you and teach you, but those who did not give birth to you are all empty. ”

She didn't seem to have heard these words, she looked at me stunned, I approached her a little, gently, but also solemnly said: "Mother knows that you are still young, no one may teach you to read, the war in the Central Plains has also made many ancient books abandoned, but people's ethics should not be abandoned and forgotten at any time." My mother likes your liveliness, but my mother also hopes that you will understand that if you are a grateful child, your future path will be upright. ”

"Thanksgiving?" She listened more and more confused: "I...... Mother, I don't understand. ”

I reached out and gently stroked the top of her head, and said softly: "Regardless of the vicissitudes of life, my mother hopes that you will retain a gentle and kind heart." ”

Maybe when I said the last few words, my expression and tone softened, Li'er was a little more comfortable, and I felt that my hand touching the top of her head was also extraordinarily warm, and she seemed to understand and said to me: "Mother, I will." ”

I smiled softly, "That's good." ”

After saying that, I leaned over to blow out the candle, but Li'er said, "But, mother, why did my father lock you up, why, he didn't want to leave Er?" ”

My breath weakened, and instead of being blown out, the candle flame flickered, reflected in my eyes, and my gaze flickered.

I turned my head to look at Li'er, her big eyes flickering in the candlelight, still waiting for my answer.

I hesitated, was silent for a while, and finally said slowly: "He--locked up my mother, and I didn't allow my mother to leave him; But he didn't want you, but because of some accidents, he was separated from you. He's looking for you, too. ”

"Really?"

I nodded.

"So, what kind of person is my father?"

"What kind of person ......," I muttered, and I lost my mind for a moment.

What kind of person is he, this has been troubled for a long time in the past, I want to see clearly, see through, and later, I die, and I don't think about it anymore, only a lot of pain, anger, and even hatred are filled between me and him, think about it carefully, in fact, I have never seen the man who conceived a daughter with me, and I may not know what he wants, what his dreams are, and what his bottom line is.

I don't even know about his qiē.

I thought I didn't bother to think about it anymore, but my daughter's words made me a little stunned.

What kind of person is he?

I didn't intend to whitewash the past between me and him, but looking at Li'er's clear eyes, so black and white, as if they were the last pure place between heaven and earth, looking at such eyes, the original feelings of pain, anger and hatred were swept away at this moment. I thought about it for a long time, and then said softly: "He, like Li'er, is a very smart person. ”

"Really?"

"He's also a very serious person."

"Serious ......"

"To do things, you have to be the best, to be a person, but also to be the best person."

"Really?" When Li'er listened, she seemed to be a little happy, threw herself into my arms, and said with a smile: "Then my father is not a bad person!" ”

I looked down at her, different from the tone of temptation before, at this time she had a completely determined and happy smile on her face, I thought, "My dad may be a bad person", maybe it has been pressed on her heart for a long time, after all, she is just a child, with the innocence, purity and kindness of all children, she will miss me, and naturally she will miss her dad equally. I smiled and nodded.

Li'er said happily: "In this case, Li'er really wants to see him, Li'er wants to know, what is Dad like, is it the same as Daddy, will it hurt me too?" ”

I didn't speak, just smiled and stroked her face, and then said, "It's late, Li'er, it's time to sleep." ”

"Hmm."

Her curiosity was also satisfied to the greatest extent, and she fell on the bed with a bang, and I looked at her with a lot of amusement, put the candlestick back on the table, blew out the candlestick, and when I returned to the bed, the girl quickly got into my arms, and said slimyly: "Mother, in fact, I miss my father when I leave my son, just like I miss my mother." Will Li'er see his father? ”

"Yes."

My empty voice sounded in the empty room, and then there was silence, and Li'er slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep in my arms, but this time I woke up and looked at the dark roof with wide eyes.

Child, she can't lie, she may hide it, but in the end, her true feelings are revealed.

Just as she misses me, she will miss her father, even if someone sues her that her father locked up her mother, even if there are rumors that her father is not a good person, but the thoughts that flow in her blood are constantly cutting everything.

So, what about Pei Yuanhao?

He has been looking for Li'er for so many years, will he continue to look for it?

He and I, and I still have the road to the future, how will we go?

Early the next morning, I heard that there were maids guarding the door outside, and I didn't dare to come in rashly to wake me up, so I got up carefully, and immediately someone came in to serve, and brought hot water to wash me.

I was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, just combing my hair, and when I heard her move, I turned my head to look at her.

But when I saw the girl, she was suddenly stunned and looked at me with wide eyes.

Her expression, like a person dying of thirst seeing a pool of clear water, was so surprised that she was speechless, I got up and walked over, and said, "Li'er, what's wrong?" ”

After a while, I heard her call out suspiciously: "Mother? ”

"Hmm."

"It's really a mother! It's not a dream! ”

She was suddenly happy, and a face seemed to bloom with a smile, and she threw herself into my arms with a wow.

I hugged my giggling daughter, but I was a little sad, looking at her just now, maybe I thought that my recognition of her was just a dream, I don't know how many times she had such a dream, and finally waited for this dream to come true.

I couldn't help but feel distressed, carefully stroked her soft hair, and after a while, said softly: "Mother is here, don't worry." Come, get up and wash up, breakfast is ready. ”

Li'er is still slimy by my side, but also very well-behaved, let me rinse her mouth with green salt, wash her face, the maid wants to come up to comb her hair but she has to refuse, I must comb her hair before, I smiled and walked behind her, carefully combed her double bun, and found two goose-yellow silk silk from her dressing box, just matched with her goose-yellow shirt, particularly pink and cute.

As soon as I finished combing my hair, I heard someone walk in outside, and it happened that the maid went out with hot water to pour it, and as soon as she walked to the door, she immediately curtsied: "Childe." ”

Li'er and I both turned our heads and saw Pei Yuanxiu walking in with his hands behind his back and smiling.

"Daddy!"

Li'er slipped from the stool with a swish and ran in front of him, Pei Yuanxiu immediately leaned over and hugged her, and said, "Li'er, are you happy to stay with your mother for one night?" ”

"Of course I'm happy, Daddy, look, my mother combed my hair, is it beautiful?"

As she spoke, she shook her head, Pei Yuanxiu's eyes smiled crookedly, and said, "Of course, Li'er is the best-looking." ”

Receiving his appreciation, Li'er was so happy that her face turned red and she giggled.

Pei Yuanxiu smiled while carrying her to the center of the room, I was still standing next to him, he turned his head to look at me, and his face was as gentle as water: "Morning." ”

I also smiled: "Early." ”

At this time, the maid had already sent us breakfast, all kinds of porridge, side dishes, and soup were set on the table, Pei Yuanxiu sat at the table with Li'er in his arms, and then said to me: "Come and eat breakfast." ”

“……”

I was a little stunned for a moment, until Li'er beckoned me vigorously to come over, and then I gently put the wooden comb back on the table, cleaned my hands a little, and sat down at the table.

As soon as I sat down, Pei Yuanxiu had already scooped up a bowl of warm porridge and handed it to me.
