Chapter 1003: What Do You Think I Will Do?
"What do you think I'll do?"
At this moment, the atmosphere that had been relieved because of Li'er's existence suddenly became sharp between me and him, and his sharp gaze looked at me like a sharp sword that had suddenly unsheathed, piercing into the deepest fear in my heart when I was completely caught off guard.
What would he do, in my opinion?
There's so much he can do.
However, before I had time to say this, I saw that on the other side, Li'er got an answer from Pei Yuanxiu, clapped his hands happily, and then ran back to my side on his feet, and said with a smile: "Mother, Daddy agreed." ”
“……”
This answer cannot be regarded as an accident.
In fact, the people on this dock, even I, even Pei Yuanxiu, are not qualified to refuse his request, after all, he is the biological father of the child, and it is understandable to ask for the joy of this day, no matter how long they have been separated and how far apart, such blood and family ties are also severed.
What's more, he is Pei Yuanhao.
Pei Yuanhao is Pei Yuanhao, and what he wants to do can often be done; What he wants to achieve can often be achieved.
I raised my head and glanced at Pei Yuanxiu over there, and I didn't know what else to say for a while, I just felt that my heart was in turmoil.
And, the mother and daughter were connected, and Li'er almost immediately felt the uneasy anxiety in my heart, she took my sleeve and shook it gently: "Mother, what's wrong?" ”
“……”
"Mother doesn't like to run around with her son, right?"
“……”
"My mother doesn't like it, so I just can't leave my son."
After speaking, she glanced at me cautiously, then turned back to Pei Yuanhao, and was about to say something, but I finally grabbed her mouth and said: "No, my mother is not allowed to go." ”
"......" she turned to me and looked at me happily.
"It's just-" I looked at her, looked up at Pei Yuanhao again, and said in a disordered mood: "Mother hopes you don't forget the time." ”
When Li'er heard this, she probably also remembered her "bad deeds" in the past few days, and her face suddenly turned a little red, and she hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Li'er will definitely not run around in the future, no matter where Li'er goes, she will definitely tell her first, so as not to worry about her mother!" ”
She was very serious, and said to me word by word, with a solemn expression like an oath.
Pei Yuanhao looked at her like this, his originally cold expression also eased at this moment, and when he raised his head to face me, he even said with a little tenderness: "Don't worry, I will come to pick her up tomorrow, and I will definitely send her here when I don't come out." ”
I looked up at him, was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.
Pei Yuanhao smiled, leaned over to look into Li'er's eyes, and said, "Then, tomorrow morning, I will come here to pick you up." We'll see you tomorrow. ”
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow."
Li'er said as she waved her hand at him gently.
On Pei Yuanhao's face, the gentleness in the smile seemed to overflow from the corners of his eyes and lips, he stood up and walked towards the other side of the dock, took two steps, and looked back at Li'er, who seemed to be a little reluctant.
But he quickly walked over anyway.
Pei Yuanxiu had been standing there, as if he was waiting, and it seemed to be a kind of urging, and when Pei Yuanhao passed by him, the two of them looked at each other almost naturally.
I don't know what kind of temperature and strength the two of them were fighting in the air, but what I could see was that the generals and guards around them were visibly nervous as if they were opening their bowstrings.
But, not a single one moved.
The last gust of cold wind blew Pei Yuanhao's long clothes, flashing in front of everyone's eyes, as if he wanted to carve the most profound mark, and without waiting for anyone to keep this scene, he had already stepped onto the tall dragon boat.
As soon as he stepped on the sampan, those Praetorian Guards and guards immediately gathered up and walked back, Wen Fengxi walked at the end with his own people, he looked back at me, and then looked at Li'er in my arms, I clearly saw the gloom in his eyes, and the flickering sense of unease, but at this moment, there was no time for him to have any more communication and dialogue with me, and when Pei Yuanhao's footsteps stepped on the boat, he also clenched the hilt of the sword on his waist, turned around and walked up.
And the figure that was originally standing on the side of the ship disappeared in a flash.
It was only at this time that all the people on the dock finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
Pei Yuanxiu turned around and walked in front of me.
"Young Baby ......"
Before he finished his words, he heard Han Zitong's anxious voice next to him: "Sister! Sister! ”
We all looked back, only to see that Han Ruoshi's face was as pale as paper, maybe because her body was already weak, standing on the dock for so long The river breeze blowing, and the sun was shining overhead, coupled with the silent but compelling confrontation between Pei Yuanxiu and Pei Yuanhao, ordinary people felt unbearable, and she was naturally even more tormented.
We hurried over.
After all, although Han Zitong is strong, she is just a woman in the end, she has been bumpy in the sea for so long, and her body has reached the limit, and now Han Ruoshi fell on her body like this, seeing that she couldn't hold it and was about to fall, Pei Yuanxiu hurriedly reached out to help her.
Li'er's eyes widened with concern: "What's wrong with Aunt Ruoshi?" ”
Han Zitong didn't have time to answer her, and only looked at Pei Yuanxiu: "My sister's illness has flareed up again, I have to go back to drink medicine quickly, and I have to trouble Yao Lao to take a look." ”
Pei Yuanxiu nodded, immediately turned around and waved his hand, and the attendants and maids around him didn't wait for his orders, they had already immediately surrounded them, and they were busy for a while.
I didn't stand far away, there was something in the way of coming and going, I didn't know who reached out and dialed it in the chaos, I retreated from the crowd, seeing them hurriedly send Han Ruoshi back, Han Zitong also accompanied her sister to go first, at this time Pei Yuanxiu turned to look at me, but saw me standing there with a strange expression, and even a little cold.
He walked over: "Qingying, you-"
"Let's go back first." I simply said, "I'll talk about it later." ”
They came, of course, in a mighty way, and they went back in a mighty way.
As soon as I got out of the carriage, I heard that the people in the house were anxious to welcome out, and as soon as I heard that Han Ruoshi was sick, the whole house was like adding a handful of salt to the hot water, and the pot was completely boiled.
In the past, I just heard that she has been weak since she was a child, and she has been supported by medicine jars all year round, and Han Zitong is obviously her younger sister, but she is more mature and sensible than her sister, and she also protects this sister more in big and small things, of course, I saw it today.
When they asked Yao Lao to go over to check the pulse, I just walked through the corridor behind the main hall with Li'er, although Li'er held my hand all the way, but obviously a little uneasy, and kept chasing Han Ruoshi and Han Zitong.
In the end, it is the two aunts who have watched her grow up since childhood, and it is impossible for her to have no feelings.
Thinking of this, my hand loosened a little, Li'er also felt it, raised her head to look at me, and said, "You care about Aunt Ruoshi, just go over and take a look, but don't cause trouble to everyone." When you Ruoshi Aunt is well, come back, and my mother has something to say to you. ”
Li'er nodded obediently: "Li'er knows." ”
After speaking, he let go of my hand, turned around and hurriedly chased after Han Zitong's back.
And I turned my head and looked at Pei Yuanxiu, who had been following behind us, originally he should be in charge of everything in this mansion, but today, I don't know if he felt something, or because he had been out to sea these days, the affairs of the mansion were handed over to others, and he had not spoken since he entered the mansion, only silently accompanied me behind me.
But he didn't say a word.
It's really because there are so many things that happened today, and even I don't know how to say some things.
It's just that, looking at Li'er's figure disappearing at the end of the corridor, I thought about it and said, "I thought you wouldn't agree to him." ”
The sentence was said without beginning or end, but he understood it immediately.
"I, after all, am not the biological father of Li'er." He said in a deep voice: "It is natural for him to want to see Li'er, and I can't refuse." ”
Oh, yes.
He is Li'er's biological father, no matter what occasion he is on today, whether he admits it or hides it, but it is understandable that he wants to see Li'er.
That's why I feel even more powerless.
I glanced at him, then turned around and continued towards the inner courtyard.
I walked all the way to the stone bridge.
This is our newlywed residence, although since the newlywed, we have been in turmoil, and there are almost few people who spend a little longer here, but unexpectedly, today when we walk here, I feel very quiet, maybe because we have been away for too long, there is no need to serve here, and the people in the house are now going to the Han sisters, when we walk on the small bridge, we can even hear the quiet sound of running water under our feet, and the rustle of the wind blowing through the bamboo leaves in the courtyard.
I stopped.
And his footsteps stopped less than two or three steps behind me.
I lowered my head and looked at the reflection in the water, the figure that had been following me all along, obviously so familiar, once facing each other day and night, with ears and temples grinding, but because of the gurgling water, it was distorted a little strange.
I leaned onto the rough stone bridge, as if trying to find some strength in that grinding feeling, and turned to look at him.
Those gentle eyes always looked at me unchanged,
Even, I want to soften all my ruthlessness and persistence at this moment.
I hardly dared to look him in the eye anymore, so I could only look away, look at the figure of me and him opposite him under the bridge, and say, "Look, do you move out, or do I move out?" ”
“……”
"It's better for me to move out. I went to live with Li'er, and after being separated for so long, I missed her too. ”
“……”
"What do you think?"
