3. Children
Pei Shangyu tossed her all night, she cried and shouted, but she couldn't break free, even in her sleep was the scene of being crushed by a tiger, holding her in his arms, but she couldn't sleep.
In the end, he was the most disgusting person, he was a demon who crawled out of the pile of dead people, and dragged her into this hell with him.
He still remembered that when he first saw her, the little girl's eyes were shining, and the clean hands handed him a pastry he had never eaten, lotus crisp, which he did not dare to forget.
Later, on the cliff, he desperately pushed her away, but in exchange for her no news, the person he trusted, left him behind, and never looked back.
How hateful, so hateful that he has missed her for decades, and he doesn't dare to forget it for a moment, Ah Wan, when you left me, you should have known what it means to leave a thousand years of disaster, I can't die, don't think about it.
Pei Shangyu's fingertips swept across her face, looking at her appearance at this time, her heart was extremely happy.
Suddenly woke up, Cheng Yiwan looked at the gauze tent above her head, a little stunned, and then reacted and propped herself up, her clothes had long been thrown by Pei Shangyu, and her white and tender skin was full of traces of happiness left by him.
"Girl."
The maid who pushed the door looked at her lifeless eyes, and stepped forward with some distress, and put on the clothes in her hand, and they listened to it outside the door all night last night, and the movement did not stop until the end of the ugly hour, and the adult ordered to ask for water.
When they went in, they thought that the girl on the bed was out of breath, but they didn't expect the adults to be so cruel between the bed.
Cheng Yiwan didn't speak, and after the maid dressed her, she helped her sit in front of the dresser: "The lord just ordered, saying that he would take the girl home after he finished handling official business." ”
Hearing the maid's words, she raised her eyes to look at the person in the bronze mirror, her pale face seemed to be seriously ill, and she was haggard after only three days.
She said that she was going home, Pei Shangyu tortured her fiercely, why did she be so kind to take her back to Cheng's house now?
"Girl, there are no concubines in the adult's backyard, you are the first woman favored by the adult, no matter whether the adult marries a wife or takes a concubine in the future, you are the first person, don't worry too much."
Piao Fu combed her hair, saw that her face was solemn, and opened her mouth to comfort her, Cheng Yiwan showed a reluctant smile, yes, Pei Shangyu is going to marry a wife, she is just his outer room, she doesn't know, why he seems to be resentful of her.
But it is clear that she is far away in Jiangdu, how can she have anything to do with him, how can she get Pei Shangyu to let her go home, and not implicate the Cheng family, is what she has to think about now.
"Thank you, what's your name?"
She asked, and Piao Su smiled and reported her name: "The slave and maid Piao Su are the maids brought by the adults from the Prime Minister's Mansion in the capital, and they will follow the girl in the future, if you have any instructions, just tell the slave maid." ”
Cheng Yiwan nodded, Piaosu's hand was very skillful, and it didn't take long for her to tie her hair in a bun, and it happened that Pei Shangyu also came back at this time, and when it was just noon, he ordered someone to pass the meal, and Piaoxu retreated with someone.
"Your Excellency."
She stood up and saluted him, Pei Shangyu sat on the chair with a hum, waved her hand and motioned for her to come over, Cheng Yiwan walked up, he stretched out his hand and grabbed her, and she sat on his lap.
"I'll take you back to our home later."
Pei Shangyu saw her eyes flashing, the corners of his lips hooked up a smile, and then said: "In the future, you will follow Benxiang, and you will only be by your parents, right?" ”
Cheng Yiwan's newly lit eyes drooped again, she clenched her sleeves, and said slowly, "What the adults said is true." ”
She didn't know why he refused to let her go, but yesterday's incident had already made her understand that if Pei Shangyu was annoyed, it would only be she who would suffer, so it was better to follow him.
"Ah Wan is really good, the adults want to drink soup, how about you feed the adults?"
At this time, Piao Xu also brought the meals to the table one by one, and everyone saw her sitting on his lap, although the Cheng family is not a big family, but it is also a scholarly family, and the etiquette she has learned since childhood has never lost to anyone.
But now, she wants to sit on a man's lap, learn from the most despised woman in the market, and serve her man, Cheng Yiwan nodded, stretched out her hand and filled a bowl of soup, that's it, she should understand what she gave up when she came here to beg Pei Shangyu.
Why pretend to be hypocritical, I'd rather die than give in, my father has been saved, and she didn't do these things in vain.
Pei Shangyu watched her serve the soup, watched her blow the hot air to feed him, his eyes always stayed on her face, it was very hot, a bowl of soup was in the stomach, Cheng Yiwan only felt that his face seemed to be seen by him.
"Cui Guo, go prepare a sedan chair."
Cui Guo outside the door answered, Pei Shangyu took her hand, stood up, and walked out with her, the sun outside was dazzling, and she narrowed her eyes a little uncomfortably.
"Don't go get an umbrella to shade your girl."
Piao Fu nodded, went into the house and took an umbrella and held it on top of Cheng Yiwan's head, she showed a smile, stretched out her hand and held the umbrella bone: "I'll do it myself." ”
Her smile was like the coolest wind in this hot summer, but this wind was not aimed at him, Pei Shangyu pulled her forward quickly, his steps were so big that she almost didn't catch up with her all the way trotting.
"Adult ......"
Cheng Yiwan shouted, Pei Shangyu stopped and turned her head to look at her, the beauty was sweaty, her little face was ruddy, she walked up to him and gasped: "My lord, the concubine is small, Lord Lao is waiting for me." ”
This time, she obediently called herself a concubine, looking at her appearance, Pei Shangyu didn't speak, hugged her into the carriage, propped her hands beside her and said: "I will breathe after walking a few steps, how will I give birth to my own child in the future?" ”
There was a faint smile in his eyes when he raised his eyes, Cheng Yiwan listened to his words, but his heart was completely cold, he still wanted her to give him a child? Listening to this, it looks like he will let her go.
"Let's go inside."
Pei Shangyu stepped on the stool on the side and walked up, took her into the carriage, and Cui Guo drove the carriage towards Chengfu.
At the gate of Cheng's mansion, Cheng Wenxi watched the carved carriage stop, and a man in a brocade robe got off the carriage and stretched out his hand, followed by his daughter, the two were intimate, how could he not see what was happening.
"The minister has seen the prime minister."
He smiled bitterly and stepped forward to salute Pei Shangyu, Pei Shangyu stopped him with a folding fan: "Cheng Gong doesn't need to be polite, today is a family banquet, there is no need to do this." ”
Cheng Wenxi stood up and looked at Cheng Yiwan behind him, he saw Pei Shangyu holding her waist, and said with a smile: "Ah Wan serves very well, Cheng Gong has a good daughter." ”
Hearing this, he was a little unsteady for a while, but Cheng Zhiqing on the side supported him, adjusted his expression on his face, and made a gesture of please: "Your Excellency, please." ”
Cheng Yiwan knew that Pei Shangyu's words were meant for her father, after all, when would he, Pei Shangyu, say more than half a word to irrelevant people.
...
The courtyard of the Cheng family is not big, and it only took a few steps to reach the main hall, and Pei Shangyu sat on the main seat and pulled Cheng Yiwan to sit beside him.
"Pei Xiang, the little girl is also ......"
With a click, the folding fan in Pei Shangyu's hand knocked on the table, he looked at Cheng Wenxi and smiled: "Cheng Gong, don't you have a banquet?" ”
There was a smile on the corner of the man's mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes, Cheng Wenxi glanced at Cheng Yiwan and ordered the housekeeper to have a banquet, and after a while, all kinds of dishes were served.
"Ah Wan, I've been tired of you these days, drink more fish soup to make up for it."
Pei Shangyu stretched out his hand to fill her with a bowl of fish soup, and then looked at her with one hand on his head: "Look at what you do, drink." ”。
Under his scorching gaze, Cheng Yiwan drank the fish soup clean, she lowered her head, in the past two days in the mansion, the truth she knew was not to fight against Pei Shangyu.
