Chapter 40 I want to treat you well, and I mean it sincerely
. Yu Tingwan was very sorry that she didn't get Wei Zhao's answer.
The window was cracked, and the wind blew in.
She put down the scissors, put away the big and small wedding characters, fearing that they would be blown all over the floor, and did not forget to press down the stone that Wei Zhao had thrown to her before.
She was about to go out to ask Hui Niang if she could help her with anything.
The little girl had just taken a few steps when she heard a rustling noise behind her. She suddenly realized that something was wrong, and turned her head to see Wei Zhao, who had been pretending to be dead not long ago, half sitting up.
His face was pale, his arms were weak, and he turned sideways to reach the scissors that Yu Tingwan had forgotten on the wooden table beside the bed .
Wei Zhao stared at Yu Tingwan with death, and there was no embarrassment on his face for being caught.
His arms were long, but after all, the distance was far. Wei Zhao slowly moved to the bed. But before he could touch the scissors, Yu Tingwan moved them away.
Yes, moved.
She didn't take the scissors, but moved the wooden table away directly.
Wei Zhao was not persistent and slowly retracted his hand.
Yu Tingwan walked back to the bed, with no emotion in his eyes and a calm tone.
"I know you've been away from home for too long, and the people in the village have completely forgotten about him. They certainly don't remember the Li family at the head of the village."
"But I heard from Aunt Hui that you had the best relationship with the son of that family when you were young."
"The Li family's son got a strange disease last year. He held his head and complained of pain all day long. The county doctor couldn't find out what the disease was, but he vomited everything he ate. He died in less than half a year."
"Before the burial, the villagers took a look and were scared. Some people even stepped back and fell to the ground. They all said that the Li family's son looked like a monster. He was so thin that only skin and bones were left. You could even count every bone in his body."
"He wanted to live and endured for half a year. I don't know how much suffering he suffered, but he didn't get the hope of life. You... don't want to live."
Yu Tingwan said lightly: "I know your injuries are serious, and I can't share your pain. I can't blame you lightly. But Wei Shen, if something happens to you..."
She pursed her lips: "What should I do?"
Wei Zhao looked out the window.
It was a vast expanse of white, and everything in the world was covered with a heavy haze of loneliness.
His wantonness, his dignity, and his high spirits had long been hollowed out, and nothing was left. With a dead heart, how could he feel the joy, anger, and warmth of the world?
He had never thought of getting married. Yu Tingwan's words did not cause any ripples in his heart.
Wei Zhao chuckled, but his eyes were calm without any emotion: "Are you afraid that something will happen to me?"
"But you don't even know who I am."
"You don't know my character, nor my past. You moved out of the Hu family, which shows that you are not a hesitant person. You and I have only been together for a few days, and I don't think I have anything worthy of your high regard. You decided to marry into the Wei family after weighing the pros and cons, and I am just the best choice for you."
"What you should be afraid of is not that something will happen to me, but that you haven't married before something happens to me."
Yu Tingwan blinked.
She didn't expect Wei Zhao to say so much.
He must have been too stingy before, so Yu Tingwan was a little flattered. More of a surprise, a surprise of astonishment.
"Clear thoughts, sharp words..., it doesn't look like your brain was broken by a fall."
Wei Zhao:...
You didn't hear a word of all that, did you?
Yu Tingwan said in a muffled voice: "I never thought..."
The girl paused.
To say that she is not indecisive is to praise her for having her own ideas. To
say that she can weigh the pros and cons is to praise her for being smart!
"I never thought that I am so outstanding in your eyes."
Wei Zhao:? ? ?
He was almost laughing with anger.
Even if he didn't have a temper, he would be angered by Yu Tingwan!
It is said that husband and wife sleep together in life and in death. He wanted to drag Yu Tingwan to die together!
Wei Zhao's face darkened.
If his confidants saw it, they would be so scared that they would kneel on the ground and reflect on who made the general unhappy.
Not to mention his confidants, those young masters who admired him in the capital would be filled with righteous indignation and rush to find the instigator to vent his anger for him.
But the instigator witnessed Wei Zhao's emotional changes and was not afraid at all.
The girl stepped forward and pushed him down. The action was considered gentle, at least it did not pull Wei Zhao's wound.
"I don't know what you've been through, and I won't ask if you don't mention it. But it's not a good thing to think too much."
Wei Zhao didn't have the slightest thought of resisting.
He looked at Yu Tingwan calmly as she straightened his wrinkled sleeves, and then watched her twist the quilt.
Even though he had applied ointment and didn't touch cold water these days, his frostbite had improved a lot. But in Wei Zhao's eyes, it was particularly shocking.
Wei Zhao kept himself clean and never lingered in brothels. There were not many women he had contact with.
But the wife of the Duke of Shun and the ladies in the palace all had slender fingers and were well maintained? Even the elderly women in the Duke of Shun's mansion were better than Yu Tingwan...
But it had nothing to do with him.
Wei Zhao thought it was boring.
But at this moment, he felt a chill on his neck, and something was pulled away.
It was his amulet.
Wei Zhao suddenly looked at her coldly.
Yu Tingwan grasped the amulet little by little into his palm.
"I still have to take care of the scissors. You don't want to listen to any good or bad words, which shows that you won't learn a lesson."
Fortunately, Wei Zhao cared about the object.
"When you really repent and won't hurt yourself again, I will return it to you. Now..."
Yu Tingwan said sternly: "I will confiscate it."
Wei Zhao narrowed his eyes.
How dare you?
The little girl didn't look at his expression and walked straight out, but the moment she went out, she stopped.
She said in a calm voice: "I admit that I had ulterior motives for marrying into the Wei family, just for a safe life. I was indeed afraid that something might happen to you."
"A few days ago, your life or death had nothing to do with me."
"But since we are going to get married, we will share the same honor and disgrace, even if you die, we will be inseparable."
"You said I don't know your character, but how do you know my preferences?"
Her voice was very light: "Since I am ready for you to live a good life, I have made up my mind to endure hardships. You and I will be the closest people in the world in the future, and I will give birth to children for you. How can there be any calculations in this? I want to treat you well, and I am sincere. How can I want to see you get into trouble?"
As the last word fell, her figure disappeared at the door.
Wei Zhao was left alone in the house with inexplicable emotions.
I thought Yu Tingwan was avoiding what he said, but she pretended to be confused.
She said they would be the closest people in the world.
Yes, husband and wife should follow the Zhougong etiquette.
She said she would give birth to children for him.
Wei Zhao had mixed emotions.
Why did Yu Tingwan feel that he would touch her?
He couldn't muster the energy for anything right now. Why did Yu Tingwan feel that he had the ability to touch her now?
Wei Zhao didn't have that confidence.
She said she wanted to be nice to him.
But it was often those who said they were nice to him who hurt him the most.
Wei Zhao even forgot to take back his amulet.
He was in a daze for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, Wei Zhao frowned. He realized that the girl had been calling Wei Shen, not him, Wei Zhao.
Wei Zhao: ...
