Chapter 535 If I touch too much, will my tail go bald? (4)
Bai Yao sighed, "If I get married and have children in the future, whether it is a daughter or a son, I will definitely only have one." "
Just like my aunt and uncle only have one daughter, my cousin Yaoyao." Wen Xiaorou's words were full of envy. Although she was also the only daughter in the family, it did not mean that her parents only wanted her as a daughter. It was just because her parents could not have another child that they had to accept this reality.
The eldest uncle's family had Wen Tingzhi, the third uncle's family had Wen Ming, and only the second uncle's family had Wen Xiaorou.
Wen Xiaorou had heard her parents complain many times that it would be better if she was a boy. When she was young, she hid and cried secretly for many times.
Bai Yao remembered her mother's words and took care of her uncle more. She didn't want to get involved in the affairs of her three uncles' families. After dinner, Wen Tingzhi took over to serve her uncle to drink medicine, and Bai Yao followed him.
The room was still filled with a strong smell of medicine. She asked Wen Tingzhi, "Can't we open the window to ventilate?"
Wen Tingzhi replied: "The doctor said that my uncle is not in good health and can't be exposed to the wind."
He said again: "The medicine should be ready. I will go and bring it over first."
Bai Yao nodded, watched Wen Tingzhi leave the room, and sat on the chair beside the bed.
Uncle Gong was always drowsy during the week, and he didn't wake up for long. Perhaps he heard the sound, he slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes fell on the young girl.
No matter how many times she saw him, Bai Yao still thought his eyes were particularly beautiful. Perhaps when he was young, this old man was also a very handsome man.
She smiled and said hello, "Uncle Grandpa."
The old man smiled and said, "It's Yaoyao."
Bai Yao didn't know if the old man knew that so many people came to see him and rushed to take care of him for the rumored property, but every time the old man saw the young man, he would show a friendly smile on his face. He must be a very good person.
Bai Yao chatted with him, "Uncle Grandpa, do you have a very young friend?"
"Friend?"
"Today, when I went to the yard to find my room, I pushed the wrong door and saw a young man in red clothes. He had long hair and looked out of touch with the times. He said he was your friend."
The old man's eyes flickered slightly, "What else did he say to you?"
"Other than that, he didn't tell me anything else." Bai Yao asked curiously: "Who is he?"
The old man slowly breathed a sigh of relief, "The person you are talking about is Mr. Su, he is indeed my friend, he has lived in the mountains for a long time, and rarely comes into contact with outsiders, so he is a little different from outsiders. This time I was sick, he came to see me specially, but he doesn't like to interact with strangers, Yaoyao, don't tell others, don't disturb his peace."
Bai Yao hurriedly agreed, she asked again: "Then he must not be any relative of mine, right?"
The old man replied: "Of course not."
"That's good." Bai Yao grabbed the corner of her skirt and walked around, her eyes rolling around, obviously thinking of something.
The old man asked: "What's good about it?"
Bai Yao whispered: "Uncle Grandpa, I feel like I fell in love with him at first sight, and I want to pursue him."
The old man was stunned.
Wen Tingzhi quickly came in with a bowl of medicine, and the bomb-like topic that Bai Yao had just thrown out ended here. The old man was in low spirits, and soon after drinking the medicine, he fell asleep again. It
was already nightfall, and the night in the mountains was cold and bleak. Occasionally, you could hear slight movements in the forest, and I didn't know if it was some wild animal making a noise.
The lights on the walkway flickered, and finally went out completely. The night without moonlight was dark.
Wen Tingzhi said: "The power is out again, I'll take you back."
Bai Yao didn't refuse.
This time, Wen Tingzhi took Bai Yao along another route. When they passed by a house with incense burning, she took a curious look and asked, "What's in there?"
"The shrine where my uncle worships."
"I heard that people here worship fox fairies?"
Wen Tingzhi didn't believe in these things, and he didn't say anything shy. "It's just superstition. Baihuai County is a small place. Most of the young people are gone, leaving only a few old people. With the passing of the elderly, fewer and fewer people believe in these things." "
Only my uncle always believes that fox fairies exist in the world, and he reminds my parents and uncles to remember to offer three incense sticks in front of the statue every day."
"If there really is a god in the world who can respond to people's wishes, then why are there so many frustrated people?"
At this point, Wen Tingzhi lowered his eyebrows, with an inexplicable look on his face.
Bai Yao thought to herself, this guy is emo, you can tell at first glance that he has a story.
When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Bai Yao did not let Wen Tingzhi see her off, she walked in by herself, and when she passed the room where she pushed the wrong door during the day, she paused slightly.
There was no light in the room, and no movement, maybe he was resting.
Bai Yao muttered in her heart, if only he just opened the door and walked out, then she could take the opportunity to say good evening to him.
She was about to leave, and the door creaked open, tempting her to stop and turn around.
The young man with a fiery red dress and white hair as white as snow had a smile on his face and stood tall, instantly adding a dazzling color to the night.
He said: "Good evening."
Bai Yao was stunned for a while, no way, what she thought would come true?
"Good evening." She replied, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
At this time, the clouds broke and the moon came out, adding a touch of brilliance to the night.
Mr. Su stood at the door, the moonlight and the darkness in the house intertwined on his body, as if he was at the boundary of light and darkness, flickering, making his figure look thinner, like colored glaze, beautiful but very easy to break.
Bai Yao thought to herself, the night wind should be a little smaller, so as not to blow him down!
Maybe it was her illusion, the sound of the wind suddenly became much smaller, and the fallen dead leaves fell slowly without making any noise.
She glanced at the man again. She
hoped that he could come out and stand under the moonlight, and that beautiful long white hair would definitely be brighter and more flawless than the moonlight.
Mr. Su tilted his head slightly, walked out of the room slowly, and stood in front of her in the night mist.
The bright red and pure white matched him perfectly.
Bai Yao slowly covered his mouth and said uncertainly: "It's so magical, I feel... as if you will do exactly what I am thinking about."
He raised the corner of his lips, "Well,"
if it were anyone else, they would find it weird.
Bai Yao's heart was pounding, he and she were so in tune with each other, this must be God's hint to her, this man must be her destined one!
"Do you have a wish?" His voice was very light, "Whether it is wealth, power, or eternal youth, as long as it is a wish, it will be fine."
He stretched out his pale hand, his fingers were distinct and exceptionally slender, "I will help you realize your wish, you offer me your obsession, okay?"
- As expected of a person who has lived in the mountains for a long time and is isolated from the world, he always speaks so strangely.
Bai Yao glanced at his hand and thought that he was not only good-looking, but also had good-looking hands. She was bewitched for a moment and held his hand, "I do have a wish."
The hands of the two were faintly hot, as if they were establishing some kind of connection.
She said: "But I don't want you to associate with me for the purpose of realizing my wish, but because you like me as a person, you are willing to be with me."
His smile paused, "With you...?"
Bai Yao's eyebrows curved, smiling, "Yes, I want to associate with you, as a boyfriend and girlfriend!"
There was no smile on his face, and he tilted his head slightly, looking dazed, his long hair slipped from his shoulders, mixed with the white silk behind his head, and it was hard to tell which was more pure and innocent.
