Could it be that... he regretted it?
“Bang!”
The next second, Xiao An suddenly slammed the chopsticks in her hand on the table. She stood up irritably. She paced back and forth in the room, her steps getting faster and faster, and then she walked towards the door. Her hand was on the door latch, but she didn't move. Then she silently took her hand back.
What is she going to do?
She actually wanted to ask Pang Yi in person. But how could she ask Pang Yi?
Even if Pang Yi really regretted it, what could she do?
Xiao An stood in front of the door with a droopy face. She stood there blankly for a long time, then turned around silently and moved slowly towards the room step by step.
If Pang Yi really regretted it, then she would have no way to deal with it.
Xiao An slumped down at the table. Her mind was in a mess, but it seemed to be blank. She just stared at the flickering candle flame on the table and in the lamp.
…
“Pah, pah, pah!”
Xiao An was in a trance. Suddenly, she was brought back to her senses by a rapid knock on the door. She sat up straight and looked at the carved door for a long while. Then she trembled and said, "Who?"
"It's me," Pang Yi said hurriedly in a low voice. "Open the door for me."
Xiao An suddenly sat up from her chair and hurried to open the door, but she stopped after taking two steps. She touched her head with both hands, then hurried to the inner room, opened the jewelry box on the dressing table, then bent over to look at the bronze mirror, took out a white jade inlaid with red coral beads double knot Ruyi hairpin and pinned it into her bun, then hurried out again.
"Here I come..." Xiao An walked to the door, calmed down, and pulled out the bolt. As soon as she opened the door, she was stunned, "You...what's wrong with you?"
"Why are you taking so long to open the door?" Pang Yi frowned as he hurried in carrying a heavy pottery jar. He placed the jar in the middle of the room, then he breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat off his face and smiled at Xiao An. "It's been a while since I last practiced martial arts, and this little thing almost exhausted me."
In fact, it wasn’t because he was tired, it was because he was too cold. After holding her like that for so long, Pang Yi’s hands were frozen and numb, and he almost dropped the baby on the ground.
"What is this?" Xiao An looked at the pottery jar and the cloak covering it, not knowing what was inside. She looked at Pang Yi and asked, "What did you buy?"
"I didn't buy it, I dug it myself," Pang Yi was a little embarrassed, and he lowered his head in a hurry. He went over to lift up his cloak and said to Xiao An a little embarrassedly, "I was doing some work in the mountains today, and I saw this plum tree in full bloom, it was so beautiful, and I thought you would like it, so I borrowed a shovel from a fellow villager and dug it out. I also bought this pottery jar from a fellow villager nearby. It's a little rough, please don't dislike it."
Xiao An stared at the blooming red plum blossom in front of her without blinking. Gradually, her eyes began to blur and a gentle red cloud appeared in front of her.
She liked plum blossoms. In the past, when she was in the capital, the noble ladies of the capital would hold a plum blossom appreciation and poetry recitation party. As the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, her status was so noble. Over the years, she had also been in the spotlight and got used to being flattered and looking down on others. Gradually, it became unimportant what flowers to appreciate, but what clothes and jewelry to wear to overpower the whole audience. She was like a proud peacock, never reluctant to show off her beauty, but later, she threw away all her pride and dignity and turned herself into a golden bird.
How many years has it been since I took a good look at plum blossoms?
How many years has this heart been covered in dust?
…
"What? You... don't like it?" Seeing that Xiao An had been talking for a long time, Pang Yi was a little flustered. He had no experience in getting along with girls. Xiao An had everything she needed, and he didn't know what to give her. He just saw this plum blossom and thought it was particularly beautiful, so he thought of digging it up and giving it to Xiao An. However, facing Xiao An's silence, his heart was beating fast, "If she doesn't like it, I will give it to her now..."
"I didn't say I don't like it." Xiao An turned her face to the side, her eyes moistened quickly, and she turned back and smiled broadly at Pang Yi, "I like it. I like plum blossoms the most, especially red plum blossoms. You really know how to pick."
