In fact, I understand Pei Yuanxiu's meaning to some extent.

He hopes that in these seven days, I will completely belong to him, without being disturbed by others, and I will not think about other people, and in the days when we are newly married, I will completely empty myself and be his woman.

I was silent for a while, looking at the expectant look in his gentle pupils, and finally nodded gently: "Hmm." ”

A happy smile immediately appeared on his face.

However, while it was time for him to take a bath and freshen up, I still went to see Li'er.

I haven't seen my daughter since yesterday morning, although I know that she must have been well served and cared for, but it's the same as Yao Lao's worry about Pei Yuanxiu, as a parent, I will only be afraid that my child will have the slightest grievance, and I will never rest assured. When he walked outside his room, he saw two girls knocking on the door in a whisper: "Miss Li, Miss, it's time to get up." ”

"I don't, you're not allowed to come in!"

Her wayward voice came from the room, and the two girls were about to say something, when they saw me walking over, and hurriedly leaned over and saluted: "Madame." ”

I nodded, didn't say anything, and just pushed the door open and walked in.

There was no light in the room, and of course it was not early, and the bright room seemed a little empty, except for the quilt on the bed arched into a large bag, and Li'er wrapped herself from head to toe.

When she heard someone push the door in, she immediately lifted the quilt and said loudly, "What a boldness, you dare—"

As soon as she saw me, she immediately stopped, and the girl blinked, and suddenly lifted the quilt and wrapped herself in it.

I smiled and walked over to sit on the edge of the bed, and said softly, "What's wrong?" If you don't get up so late, are you going to become a lazy worm? ”

“……”

"Li'er? What's wrong? Mother, you don't pay attention to it. ”

“……”

"Don't you want to see your mother?"

"......" This time, she didn't be silent for long, and then she saw the little head wrapped in the quilt swaying gently, and then the quilt was slowly pulled down by herself, and under the unkempt hair, my daughter looked at me with a pair of extraordinarily bright eyes. It's just that I was surprised to find that her eyes were a little bloodshot, as if she hadn't slept well.

I gently reached out and brushed her hair, and said softly, "What's wrong with Li'er?" Didn't sleep well yesterday? ”

She didn't speak, just looked at me.

This time, I found that not only her eyes were red, but even her nose was slightly red, so I hurriedly reached out and hugged her into my arms, and said softly, "What's wrong?" Divorced? What have you been wronged by, sue sù Niang. ”

She held her mouth, I thought she was going to cry, but she didn't cry, just looked at me with wide eyes, and after looking at it for a while, she stretched out two little arms around my neck, and the whole person nested in my arms like a cat.

For a while, anxiety and anxiety were crushed by my daughter's intimacy, and I only felt that my heart was soft, and I wrapped my arms around her and gently stroked her back.

"Mother......" She didn't speak for a while, maybe because she was nested in my arms, and her voice was a little muffled: "Mother and Daddy, they became close yesterday, right?" ”

"Hmm."

I thought she was going to say something, but this girl didn't speak again after asking this sentence, I lowered my head and looked at her slightly red eyes and trembling eyelashes, just like she felt when she came to my room before the wedding, still so lonely and aggrieved. I think it's probably because she can't fully accept my marriage with Pei Yuanxiu in her heart, even if I repeatedly promise her that after marriage, it will be the same as before, and Pei Yuanxiu and I will only love her more, but children at this age are always sensitive, and the slightest change will make them uneasy, let alone such a big thing.

Thinking of this, I hugged her tighter and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, no matter who your mother marries, Li'er will always be your mother's most important baby." Mother will always love you and protect you. ”

Li'er hugged my neck, was silent for a while before gently letting go, retreated a little to look at me, and after a while, I heard her say in a thick nasal voice: "Li'er, I also want to protect my mother." ”

I was stunned for a moment, and immediately, a warm current came to my heart.

I hugged her tightly again, and left a kiss on her apple-like face, when a maid came to the door and whispered, "Madam, Childe's carriage is already waiting at the door." ”

I hesitated, but Li'er had already let go of me, although she let go of me, her eyes were clearly reluctant, so I tried my best to comfort her gently: "Mother will go out with your father for a while, and she will be back soon." Be well-behaved at home, eat and sleep well, don't be willful, okay? ”

She nodded slightly.

I looked at her again, caressed her heart gently, and got up and walked out. The maids outside were waiting cautiously, I thought about it, stopped and asked the two maids who took care of Li'er, "Where did Miss Li's go to play last night?" Did you come back late to sleep? ”

"Back to Mrs., Miss Li only went to the riverside yesterday to watch the fireworks, after the fireworks were over, before three o'clock, Miss came back and said that she wanted to rest, and after the slaves and maids served her and slept in her wide clothes, Miss Li did not call the slaves and maids again."

That's right......

I nodded, and then advised, "You have to be careful about taking care of Miss Li these days." ”

"Yes, ma'am, the slave knows."

When I had finished explaining the matter of leaving my son, I walked to the gate, and sure enough, the carriage was already waiting there.

It was just a carriage, not a carriage like in the past, and there were hardly any attendants around, except that the coachman stood there and saluted me respectfully. As soon as I walked over, the curtain was lifted from the inside, and Pei Yuanxiu was sitting inside in a snow-white robe, looking at me with a smile.

For some reason, he had barely slept last night, but now he seemed refreshed, his eyes were exceptionally bright, and he looked a little more handsome than usual. Maybe it's really as he said, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and when he saw me standing outside the car, he immediately showed a gentle smile on his face and stretched out his hand to me: "Qingying, come." ”

I looked at him, smiled, and held out my hand to him.

The following days were exactly what he wanted.

He would take me to drive the carriage around the streets all day long, go to every restaurant to eat signature dishes, drink cellar wine, while listening to the story of the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, Tang Dynasty and Song Ancestors, I listened to me lingering; He would also take me to the most crowded places in the bazaar to watch the excitement, and as during the Chinese New Year, he would eat those simple and cheap snacks, and watch the wonderful skills of the street people, swallowing fire, playing with lions, locking the throat with silver guns, and breaking boulders in his chest, which made him stunned.

After the Cold Food Festival, the weather has warmed up, the spring breeze and the south bank of the Green River, followed by the blooming of flowers, he will also take me to enjoy the flowers, visit the garden, listen to excerpts, taste the spring of Biluo.

There are not a few people here who know us, and we often go to a place and are secretly looked at, and celebrities come to talk to us, and every time he calmly holds my hand in front of everyone. In Jiangnan, he is the king, and I am the woman next to the king.

I've never had a day like this.

In the past, it should be said that since the day I set foot on the road to the palace, my spirit has been tense almost every day, and I am always on guard and vigilant, and the only quiet day is ......, but it seems to have become a memory of my previous life, and my life today is unprecedented and comfortable.

Perhaps, for many people, such a life is really perfect.

In the blink of an eye, six days have passed.

Early this morning, he pulled me into the carriage again, I don't know what "surprise" he is going to bring me today, what exquisite scenery to see, what exquisite dishes to taste, asked him he didn't say, only smiled mysteriously and said, "I'll know when the time comes", I didn't bother to ask again, so I sat in the car, with the carriage swaying, but a little sleepy.

But just as I was almost dozing off, the carriage stopped.

"Young Baby."

When I opened my eyes, I saw that he had jumped out of the carriage and was standing below smiling at me: "Come." ”

The person was still a little ignorant, and I obediently stretched out my hand to him, and he carried him out of the carriage. As soon as I stood still, I felt a moist wind blowing in my face, which immediately lifted people's spirits, and when I turned my head to look, I saw a green ocean around me, which seemed to be boundless and spread across the whole world, leaving only me and him.

If you look closely, it is actually a reed bush by the river!

He and I were standing at an old ferry, which seemed to be unused anymore, so quiet that only the rustle of the wind through the reeds was, and a trestle in front of us, at the head of which was a small awning boat, and the boatman was waiting with a penny.

My eyes widened in surprise: "It's—"

He looked at me with a smile: "Would you like to cruise with me?" ”

I was speechless for a while, just looking at the boundless reeds around me, covering the sky and the sun, with the wind setting off bursts of green waves around me, and the sound of the river murmuring in the distance, and the faint smell of water in the air, all of them were so familiar, and as strange as the memory of another life.

After a while, I looked up at him and nodded slightly.

He smiled and led me up the trestle, where I was carefully helped out of the boat by the boatman. It was the first time I sat with him on such a small boat, although it was small, but it was full of organs, small tables, mattresses, and delicate refreshments on the table, and when the boatman held up the penny, the boat swayed away from the trestle, but did not sail to the center of the river, but slowly along the shallow water on the shore.

I sat opposite him like this, watching the towering green mountains outside slowly wandering, sipping fragrant tea, it was very comfortable.

After a while, I smiled at him and said, "Are you going to see the scenery like this today?" ”

"Of course not." He looked at me with a smile: "There's still fun to do today." ”
