However, the mother she imagined should be like Aunt Pei, who was nagging but always did it for her own good.
When I make something delicious, I always think of saving a portion for her. When the weather gets cold, I remind her to dress warmly. When I know she's having trouble, I rush to help her find a solution. I even go out of my way to learn how to cook something she likes.
He would gently hold her hand and tell her this or that.
Aunt Pei was very kind to her, and Pei Yanli was also very kind to her.
Thinking of this, Li Sisi used both hands to forcefully pull Xiao Yunchen's arms apart, took two steps back, and said with a very serious expression: "Xiao Yunchen, it's impossible for us. I've already fallen in love with someone else."
As soon as Li Sisi finished speaking, she saw Xiao Yunchen staring at her with his dark eyes. His eyes were dark and unclear, but he could clearly feel that something was wrong.
"Is it Pei Yanli?"
Li Sisi looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect that he could guess so accurately.
Is it so obvious between her and Pei Yanli? Or... did Xiao Yunyu even tell him this?
Li Sisi gnashed her teeth in anger.
Xiao Yunyu, this traitor! She and Nian Nian had always trusted him so much!
I thought he was a man of his word!
Xiao Yunchen looked at her obvious expression, his eyes brewing with strong emotions.
Haha, it’s true.
The man who had just been speaking softly and coquettishly suddenly stood up, his heart filled with resentment and jealousy stimulating his calm and restrained reason.
In his heart, he secretly compared himself with Pei Yanli, and his clear voice was filled with provocation: "Sisi, do you think he is better than me?"
"Of course." Li Sisi said without thinking, "He has never said a bad word about me. No matter what I do, he will never blame me. What about you?"
"You want me to obey the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, to respect your mother who wants to beat me to death, and to obey my husband? Ha, why should I listen to you? Why don't you listen to me?"
Xiao Yunchen listened to her talking about the good things about other men. His lowered eyes hid a gradually gloomy mood. He closed his eyes tightly and clenched his knuckles so hard that they turned white.
Because he used too much force, the wound on his arm broke open slightly, and the pain from the wound mixed with the pain in his heart came together.
Xiao Yunchen suddenly leaned over, hugged Li Sisi in his arms with both hands, and said unwillingly: "Sisi, I will listen to you, I will listen to you, okay? Don't leave me, sister~sister~"
He shouted rapidly, trying to bring the person in his arms back to their former loving times.
It was she who taught him how to get along with his wife, it was she who taught him how to express his love, it was she who taught him how to please her...
"Sister, please don't leave me..."
Li Sisi felt the warm tears falling on her neck and her body stiffened slightly.
Then she suddenly pushed him away and said angrily: "Xiao Yunchen, why are you crying as a grown man? Weren't you very arrogant before? Your mother punished me by making me kneel in the ancestral hall and copy the female virtues to teach me to be virtuous. If you looked down on me then, why are you rushing to me now?"
"The baby is gone, and you're breastfeeding? It's too late!"
After saying that, Li Sisi ran out without looking back.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Pei Yanli standing like a sculpture in the middle of the yard.
Pei Yanli looked at Li Sisi's slightly red eyes and his expression paused.
I've known Sisi for so long, and this is the first time I see her cry.
Pei Yanli walked towards her, but his eyes were looking at Xiao Yunchen who had a gloomy face at the door.
He couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, but he knew clearly that he was unwilling to let go.
Many guesses were stuck in his throat. Pei Yanli didn't ask a single question. He just lowered his eyes and said softly, "Sisi, I'll take you home."
Xiao Yunchen looked at the man and woman looking into each other's eyes in the golden sunlight. His heart felt as if it was being gnawed by dense ants, and the bone-gnawing pain and itchiness surged out in an instant.
Xiao Yunchen's pupils shrank, he turned back to the house and closed the door and windows tightly.
His eyes searched frantically, and finally landed on the corner of the bookcase, which was dark and hidden.
The five fingers of his right hand suddenly grasped the arm of his left hand tightly, and the wound that had not healed yet burst open in an instant. Bright red blood quickly soaked through the official robe, dyed the five fingers red, and overflowed from between the fingers.
He hid in the corner next to the bookcase, and the pain made him clear-headed.
How come the poison took effect so early this time?
Didn’t Doctor Wu say that as long as he could endure and not continue using the medicine, the intervals between future attacks would become longer and longer?
As long as you can survive a year without touching it, the poison of Sai Shenxian can be cured.
Why did it happen earlier this time?
Outside the house, Li Sisi heard Pei Yanli's words and shook her head: "No need to go home, I still have work to do!"
Pei Yanli kept his eyes on Xiao Yunchen. Seeing that he had closed the doors and windows, he withdrew his gaze and asked in a low voice, "Sisi, did he bully you?"
Li Sisi shook her head again: "No."
She turned her head to look at the closed door and window, and curled her lips: "He can't beat me."
Pei Yanli looked at her slightly red eyes filled with mist, with a transparent tear at the end of her eye about to fall. He said in a deep voice: "But you cried."
As soon as he finished speaking, the tears at the corners of his eyes slid down.
Li Sisi felt the obvious wetness on her cheek, and she reached out a finger to wipe it, somewhat confused.
Just a tear, only wet the tip of a finger.
She stared blankly at her fingertips wet with a tear and murmured, "I didn't mean to cry."
She looked up blankly and repeated, "Pei Yanli, I don't want to cry."
Pei Yanli listened to the suppressed sobs in her voice, reached out and pulled her into his arms with pity, and whispered to comfort her: "Well, Sisi has always been soft-hearted, Sisi doesn't want to cry."
