His stern voice was so frightening that Xihe pretended to burp, his face full of fear: "You, you scolded me again..." As he spoke, crystal tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
At this moment, she no longer had the aura of someone who could tease people before, and she looked weak and pitiful.
Fu Yu, who had just spoken harshly, felt a pain in his head and was at a loss as to what to do to wipe her tears. However, the tears on Xi He's face fell like beads from a broken string, and the more he wiped, the more they fell.
Fu Yu had no choice but to apologize humbly and slap himself in the face.
I cried myself into a sweat,
It was late at night, and the shadows of the trees swayed outside the window. Fu Yu lowered his voice to comfort her, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have said those things. Don't be angry. It's not good for your health if you get angry."
The girl's slender body lay on the bed, motionless, ignoring him.
Fu Yu was extremely annoyed and stepped forward helplessly: "If you really want to slap me twice, I will never fight back." With a light push, the girl fell on the bed with a gurgle.
The little body was curled up, with red at the corners of the eyes, eyes closed tightly, sleeping soundly and sweetly.
Fu Yu: “…”
His expression froze, and then his face relaxed. "Go to sleep, it's good to sleep."
The big hand went around the girl's slender legs, and he held her in his arms with one arm. He lifted the quilt and gently put her down. The girl moaned, turned over, smacked her lips, and continued to sleep.
The black hair was spread out and the fair and tender little face was sleeping soundly without any vigilance.
Fu Yu closed his fingertips and gently rubbed her face, the touch was delicate and real.
He lay down, one hand under his chin, staring at the little face with his tiger eyes without blinking. The candlelight flickered in the room, and he fell asleep without knowing when.
-
The next morning, the sky was getting brighter, and a ray of sunlight poured into the house through the carved window. Xihe looked at the ceiling of the tent for a long time before realizing that he had reached the border.
She slowly lifted the quilt and got up.
In the empty room, brand new clothes were placed on the shelves. Xihe put on his coat and walked to the window, putting on his shoes on tiptoe.
When I opened the window, a chill hit me in the face.
The yard was quiet and deserted. A few trees stood alone. There was a stone table under the trees. The ground was covered with stone slabs, and the air was filled with the smell of sand and dust.
"Miss, are you awake?" The door opened and a little maid came in carrying a basin of water.
After a good night's sleep, the cute little face became bright and energetic again.
"Um."
Xihe gathered her clothes and walked to the table to let her comb her hair. Her hair was thick, long and soft, and a simple bun was done in no time.
"Miss, which one are you wearing today?"
There were three or four hairpins on the table, some made of white jade and some with red pomegranates. Xihe casually chose a white jade hairpin carved with peach blossoms.
Comb your hair, put on green clothes,
The maid brought in the food at the right time. Xihe had discovered last night that the cooking here did not pay much attention to taste. It was just a simple rice porridge with side dishes. Xihe put down his chopsticks after taking two bites.
"Where's the General?"
The sun was shining down, and Xihe walked around the yard and asked casually.
The yard is big, but it is also very empty. Among the three yards, only the main yard and the martial arts field are relatively neatly arranged, especially the martial arts field. The stakes driven into the ground are particularly smooth in the sunlight, and the ground is flat, which shows that it is often used.
"Miss, the general has gone to the military camp." The maid who followed him replied.
Xihe stopped asking. She walked around the yard and returned to the main courtyard.
