Chapter 22: Late Love
What bothered Mu Bai the most was how to drive Xiao Wu away from his couch?
Ever since Xiao Wu was scared in the Great Hell of Ah Bi, she has been looking for various reasons to lie on her couch, and Xiao Wu often has nightmares at night, and it is under her own coaxing that she can sleep peacefully again. For this reason, Mu Bai compromised again and again, and in the end, Xiao Wu had to live in his dormitory with peace of mind.
But now it's different, both of them have grown up, and they ...... themselves Alas, it can't go on like this. couldn't think of a good way, Mu Bai could only complain to his eldest brother Cheng Lie, "Big brother, Xiao Wu...... She's always on my couch, and this is not a solution?"
"Is she messing around again and disturbing your rest?"
Cheng Lie had nothing else to do, he would come to see Mu Bai almost every day, and often stayed to eat and play chess together, etc., Xiao Wu and Mu Bai slept on the same couch, he naturally knew. Thinking that the two of them were both young, they were just companions, and besides, they had a marriage contract, and Cheng Lie never thought much about anything else.
In Cheng Lie's heart, the most concerned is the younger brother who was raised by himself. He saw that since Xiao Wu came to be a companion, Mu Bai's heart was all on the little girl, worrying about her life and meticulous care, and teaching her skills. asked Xiao Wu to read with him, and the original intention was to take care of Mu Bai more, but it turned out to be a big burden for him. The little girl is a naughty master, so Mu Bai really worries a lot, Cheng Lie has been planning to find an opportunity to teach Xiao Wu a lesson, so that she can not forget her duty, but Mu Bai has been protecting like an old hen guarding her cubs.
Seeing that although Mu Bai is worried, he is also enjoying it, the key is that after Xiao Wu came, Mu Bai's body is indeed getting better and better, and as a big brother, it is not good to say anything?
Mu Bai touched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "That's not true, it's just that they have grown up and haven't married, so it's not good."
"Then it's okay to get married, brother will say to my father", Cheng Lie said, getting up and leaving.
Mu Bai hurriedly stopped Cheng Lie, looked a few times, and twisted for a long time before he said: "Don't go! Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu is still young, still ...... I don't understand anything, so I can only wait a few more years...... It's just a matter of thinking about it, so she doesn't ...... Don't stay with me, just do it."
Cheng Lie understood what Mu Bai meant, and he suddenly realized that the younger brother he brought up with him had really grown up and had a desire for men and women.
His eyes rolled a few times, Cheng Lie seemed to be smiling, half-truth, and tried to tease Mu Bai, "That's not easy, brother came to talk to her, and if she didn't obey, give her a whip...... Oh, of course, it would be better to have the guards take her back to her bedroom every night...... Or...... Otherwise, brother will find you a ...... first Beauty, then, the little girl will not be able to lie on your couch anymore...... Brother, you are not allowed to wronged yourself."
When Mu Bai heard this, he immediately blushed with a handsome face, raised his eyebrows, his beautiful eyes were full of resentment, and he said angrily: "Big brother, what kind of bad ideas are coming out?!...... In my life, I only need one little dance!".
Cheng Lie stepped forward and put his arm around Mu Bai's shoulders and persuaded, "Okay, good, big brother is playing with you, don't be angry."
As a bystander, how could Cheng Lie not know that in the eyes and hearts of the two children, there was only each other, compared to his own words that did not speculate for half a sentence, and could only provide him with the fragrance of the side concubine who could only relieve his desires, it was completely different.
Cheng Lie sighed, alas, Mu Bai couldn't take the little girl, he couldn't take this baby brother.
In the end, the brothers came up with a compromise solution, and Cheng Lie opened up another bedroom for Xiao Wu next door to Mu Bai's bedroom.
After the bedroom was completed, Mu Bai took Xiao Wu in his arms and began to reason, "Xiao Wu, you are too dishonest to sleep at night, I have to wake up several times a night, and it is really not good to rest...... cough cough cough, recently, I often feel tired and weak, if I go on like this, I'm afraid I'm going to get sick again, cough cough cough", Mu Bai deliberately coughed a few times while speaking, looking weak and extremely tired.
Xiao Wu's eyes flashed, and she pretended to be confused knowingly, "What can I do then?"
"You go to sleep in the next room, only through that wall, we can talk while lying on the couch."
"That, that...... Okay!", Xiao Wu is most afraid that Mu Bai's health is not good, and after thousands of years of recuperation, his body will be better, and he can't affect his health because of poor sleep, although she is reluctant in her heart, but after "that" for a long time, she still agreed sensibly.
Later, except for the occasional fault finding fault and running over to sleep with Mu Bai in the middle of the night, most of the time, Xiao Dan would go to the next bedroom to sleep when he had enough fun, and a thing that Mu Bai felt the most difficult to do, so it was successfully solved.
In the more than 6,000 years that have been with each other, Mu Bai has really loved and cared for Xiao Wu in every way, and he speaks softly and gently, and in Cui'er's memory, he has only really punished Xiao Wu once.
That time, Xiao Wu secretly went out of the palace alone to play, and when the road was uneven, he chivalously went to hunt down a hurtful monster, and was led by the monster into the swamp deep in the reeds, unable to get out.
Mu Bai took the guards to search for two days before he found Xiao Wu, who was trapped in the swamp and couldn't extricate himself, and was locked up in the punishment room by the angry Mu Bai, and punished her for not sleeping and thinking about it.
As a result, Mu Bai was worried that Xiao Wu would be scared of the dark again, so she didn't sleep all night, and in the end, she couldn't help but go to the punishment room, only to find that the little girl who should have thought about it had already slept in a drowsy and drooling. Mu Bai carried Xiao Wu back to the bedroom, and laughed at himself with a wry smile: "I, am I punishing you or myself?"
All of them are fate. The moment his eyes met suddenly, he and she both walked into each other's lives.
Mu Bai really often can't help Xiao Wu, she is eccentric, playful, tricky, doesn't pay attention to rules, doesn't like restraint, and is bold and reckless...... But, he just likes it!
Mu Bai cultivated Xiao Wu into a tree that grows arbitrarily, and under his gentle wings, she is a lucky girl who is pampered and pampered!
Time flies, and the years flow like water.
Xiao Wu has been with Mu Bai for 6,800 years, getting along day and night like glue, and the days are comfortable and colorful.
Xiao Wu has grown a lot taller, and has become a graceful girl, standing by the window, as pretty as a three-spring peach, but the frown is often locked.
Three hundred years ago, Mu Bai had a serious illness, and after that, he always did not get better, and he often felt pain all over his body, cold and biting, just like when Xiao Wu first saw him. Mu Bai's appetite became worse and worse, his body was not as good as before, and the weakness in his legs made him rarely go outside the palace anymore.
Xiao Wu understood that Mu Bai was reluctant and unwilling to sit back in the wheeled car.
One day, the weather was warm, Xiao Wu and Mu Bai sat at the table in the hall, reading a book together. After looking at it for a while, Xiao Wu raised her head and looked out the window, and proposed, "Mu Bai, I want to take you out for a walk, okay?"
Mu Bai's clear eyes looked at Xiao Wu for a long time, and nodded, "Okay!"
"Mu Bai, I'm going to carry you out", as he spoke, Xiao Wu squatted in front of him with his back to Mu Bai, urging: "Come up, I'm a strong man now."
Seeing Mu Bai shaking his head, Xiao Wu turned around and put his hand on Mu Bai's lap, looked up at him, and prayed, "Mu Bai, let me carry you, for thousands of years, you have done so much for me...... However, I didn't do anything, and now that Xiao Wu has grown up, let me do something for you. Otherwise, Xiao Wu would be ashamed in her heart...... Mu Bai, please!".
Mu Bai leaned his head, looked at his beloved girl with starry eyes affectionately, and gently pinned her hair on her forehead behind her ears with her hands, and felt a lot of emotion in her heart.
What did she not do for him? Her presence was like a beam of light and a fire, illuminating and warming his whole life, and she gave him happiness, warmth, and long-term companionship......
Staring at Xiao Wu's pleading eyes, Mu Bai finally nodded, he couldn't bear to disappoint her. Mu Bai was already thin, but in the past three hundred years, the torture of illness has made him even thinner.
Xiao Wu has never stopped practicing martial arts, although she didn't pay much attention, but she still practiced some strength. Xiao Wu picked up Mu Bai and walked out of the hall, and in the dissuasion of Long Teng, Tiger Roar, Cui'er and others, he all blackened his face and shouted, "Retreat!
It was the first time for the waiters to see Xiao Wu speak so fiercely, and Du Nuonuo stepped back, not daring to move forward.
"Mu Bai, you say, am I a strong man? Wow! I can carry Mu Bai on my back...... I can carry Mu Bai on my back!"
Xiao Wu laughed and shouted, and began to run around the pond in front of the hall, she was clearly laughing, but she was crying silently.
Long Teng, Tiger Roar and Cui'er followed from afar, everyone was afraid that Xiao Wu was messing around, in their eyes, she had always been like this.
Mu Bai let his little girl go crazy, he knew that Xiao Wu was bitter in his heart, why shouldn't he? Once upon a time, both of them were deliberately pretending to be happy to make each other happy.
Mu Bai's illness weighed on everyone's hearts like a boulder, who could really be happy? cling to her warmth and going crazy with her, for a person who has no tomorrow, it can be regarded as a reward from God, Mu Bai is crazy with Xiao Wu......
Meeting karma, staying together because of love, understanding is the most valuable.
Mu Bai knows best that he watched Xiao Wu grow up, they can make heart-to-heart exchanges, exchange affection for affection, and know each other, but ...... But they can no longer be with a good life.
It wasn't until she was exhausted that Xiao Wu put Mu Bai on the edge of the pond and sat down on a flat stone under a golden phoenix tree, Xiao Wu sat sideways beside Mu Bai, lying on Mu Bai's knees, looking up and laughing, panting.
Seeing Xiao Wu's sweaty face, and seeing her red eyes, Mu Bai knew that Xiao Wu was crying, in fact, he had already found out, but he just pretended not to know, Xiao Wu cried silently, making Mu Bai's heart feel like being cut by a knife.
"Look at this sweat, it's crazy enough! It's a big girl, and she still looks like a child who hasn't grown up!", Mu Bai snorted, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped Xiao Wu's sweat.
Overhead, the tall golden phoenix tree is blooming, the color of the flower is as red and pleasing as the bride's wedding dress, and Mu Bai Vein stares at the beloved girl who is also red and gorgeous.
Xiao Wu was embarrassed to be looked at, and said shyly: "What do you always see me do?"
Mu Bai smiled, held Xiao Wu's hand, and said, "It's beautiful! My little princess is so good-looking!"
"Who is your princess?"
Mu Bai had mixed feelings and was ecstatic, he actually saw the little woman's twisting and shyness on Xiao Wu's body, he was so happy!
Mu Bai trembled excitedly and called softly, "Xiao Wu! , grabbed his little girl and hugged him tightly in his arms, Mu Bai suddenly burst into tears, he finally waited for her to grow up, he had waited too long for this day! too long......
Xiao Wu also hugged Mu Bai back, she could feel her heart "banging" and her face was hot.
Mu Bai's eyes were dark and misty, holding the little girl's head with both hands, holding tears, quietly looking at the red little face and the shy and evasive gaze, he couldn't help but kiss her warm red lips, she also catered to him......
"Why did she understand so late, why did I love her to the bone and not do anything more?...... God, why, why do you treat me like this?!", Mu Bai was angry and shouted loudly at the injustice of fate.
A violent cough made Xiao Wu retract her panicked and nervous mood, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Mu Bai stroke his back, with a look of worry and anxiety on his face.
Mu Bai grabbed Xiao Wu's hand and held it tightly to comfort, "I'm fine, it's okay, Xiao Wu, don't worry."
Although his appearance has returned to his gentleness and calmness, Mu Bai's heart is still turbulent, and he finally waited for her to grow up, but he couldn't marry her again. His health is deteriorating, Mu Bai has a premonition of his terrible future, how can he bear to let his beloved girl keep his life for himself?
