Chapter 80 Living in the same room
Surrounding Liao Cheng are people Su Wanwan is familiar with.
Liao Cheng smiled at Pei Changfeng, "Pei Lang, you said my face is so beautiful, shouldn't I take good care of it?"
Pei Changfeng smiled gently, "Of course, the best things in the world should be presented to the princess."
With a "bang", the porcelain bottle in Su Wanwan's hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
Liao Cheng smiled contemptuously, "What's wrong, Mrs. Tanhualang?"
She called the wife of the scholar, but the man who was accompanying her was the scholar.
Widow Liu opened her mouth to curse, but Su Wanwan held her back and said, "Let's go."
She staggered and almost fell, and was helped by the person next to her to stand steadily.
Pei Changfeng withdrew his gaze and continued to pick things on the shelf.
Liao Cheng looked at him with a half-smile, "What? Are you feeling sad?"
Pei Changfeng did not answer and asked someone to pack up the bottle of Persian imported facial cream.
Liao Cheng tried to pull his sleeve, but he easily avoided it.
"Even if you are pretending, you should pretend better," Liao Cheng felt bored. "You accompany me shopping and appreciate flowers, but you don't give me a bit of sincerity. You are really heartless."
"Pei's sincerity is not worth mentioning," Pei Changfeng laughed, "What does the princess want? If you don't want anything, why bother looking for me to act."
"You are just a mere scholar, what is there for this princess to covet?" Liao Cheng laughed sarcastically, "You are nothing but a face, you think too highly of yourself!"
Pei Changfeng looked at her quietly without saying a word, but he had the ability to see through people's hearts.
Liao Cheng frowned, raised his head and slapped him, "Who allowed you to look at this princess!"
Pei Changfeng tilted his head slightly to avoid it, "It's so ugly."
Liao Cheng was furious: "You!"
Pei Changfeng said: "I don't want what happened today to happen again. If Su Wanwan is unhappy, then I am unhappy. If I am unhappy, then what the princess wants will not be so easy to accomplish."
What does Liao Cheng want? It's nothing more than two words: revenge.
Her reputation was ruined, worse than the smelly dog shit on the street, but Pei Changfeng and Bai Jitong were different. One was the third place in the imperial examination and the other was the first place in the imperial examination. When others saw the two men surrounding her like this, they would marvel at her powerful means, but at the same time, they would spit on the two men for being so hungry.
From now on, the names of Bai Jitong and Pei Changfeng will always appear together with her name.
Later, when Liao Cheng got tired of playing with the two of them, she would get rid of them as soon as possible. Now, it was just the appetizer she offered to the two of them.
Pei Changfeng finished speaking and left. Liao Cheng was so angry that she laughed and said to the maid, "Let Bai Jitong come to accompany me!"
Su Wanwan kept walking like this until she got on the carriage back home. Then she seemed to come back to her senses and poured herself a glass of water.
But she drank too quickly and choked, choking to the point that tears came out.
Widow Liu patted her back distressedly, "Alright, alright, Pei Changfeng is a heartless man. He didn't know you were so sad. I see so many handsome boys in the capital. Which one do you like? Ask your father to go and act as a matchmaker!"
Su Wanwan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "I'm not sad, I just choked and my throat hurts."
"It's not my throat that hurts, is it?" Widow Liu sighed. "I really don't understand what's going on. It's like this person has changed his inner self all of a sudden!"
Su Wanwan lowered her head and said nothing. She didn't understand either.
It was obvious that it was Pei Changfeng who saw her being bullied that day and tried to find a way to avenge her. It was him who caused Liao Cheng to lose an adult. Now it was him who abandoned her and the child and followed Liao Cheng.
What exactly happened?
It was so magical that Su Wanwan even felt that everything was fake, and it was just a very long dream. She would rather believe it was a dream than believe that Pei Changfeng had really changed.
Su Wanwan didn't say another word until she returned to the general's mansion.
Su Cha is not at home. He now holds an important position and does not have much free time.
After Su Wanwan returned home, she went back to her own small courtyard. Although Widow Liu was worried, she also knew that there were some things she still had to figure out on her own, and no matter how others tried to persuade her, it would be useless.
Little Fu Guang was being held by his nurse in the house to bask in the sun. When the nurse saw Su Wanwan coming, she hurriedly said, "The young master was very well behaved all day today. He ate two meals of milk, slept for a while, and didn't cry or make a fuss."
Su Wanwan nodded and said, "Give me the child."
The wet nurse left, and Su Wanwan lay on the couch holding the child. Little Fuguang was holding a strand of her hair in his hand and looking at her with his big eyes.
This child was so cute that Su Wanwan couldn't help but kiss him on the face, "Little guy, why do you smell so good and so smelly?"
After she finished speaking, she felt a sense of sadness in her heart, and she rested her forehead against Xiao Fuguang's, "Poor child, your father doesn't want us anymore."
Little Fuguang didn’t understand what was said, nor did he understand the twists and turns between adults. He yawned and just felt sleepy.
Su Wanwan was holding little Fuguang, and the child was sleeping in her arms.
Hong Xing walked in quietly, "Madam, this was sent by the master."
Su Wanwan couldn't help but look over, and saw that Hong Xing was holding the face cream that she had failed to get from Liao Cheng today.
The pain in her heart suddenly became dense, and Su Wanwan turned her face away, "I don't want it, you can use it."
She hated Pei Changfeng, a man who seemed ruthless and yet affectionate, making her feel uncomfortable and uneasy.
Hong Xing wanted to say something but didn't. She took her things and left.
Su Wanwan didn't eat or sleep well for two or three days.
Until this day, little Fuguang fell ill.
The child fell ill suddenly, and started vomiting and having diarrhea. We consulted many doctors but the condition did not improve.
Unfortunately, the child was too young to use medicine, so Su Wanwan had to take the medicine and then breastfeed the child to see if the condition could be cured.
After two or three days, not only did Xiao Fuguang not get better, but even Su Wanwan was in a terrible state.
She cried when the child cried, and her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
Sucha was furious. "Quacks, they are all quacks! They talk about their superb medical skills, but my grandson hasn't been cured in such a long time!"
Xiao Fuguang lost weight and the fat on his face disappeared all of a sudden, which made people feel so sad.
"What should I do? I heard that there is an imperial physician in the palace who specializes in treating the princes, but he has retired and returned home, and his apprentice is not in the capital. What should I do?" Widow Liu was so anxious that her mouth was bubbling. She went to the Buddhist temple countless times. "The child can't stand this disease. Something bad will happen!"
Sucha glared at her, "What nonsense!"
Realizing that she had said something out of turn, Widow Liu shut up in dismay.
Xiao Fuguang didn't eat anything the whole day today. Su Wanwan fed him, but he vomited again not long after.
This went on for another two days. Little Fuguang could no longer eat anything and was dying.
Su Wanwan almost cried until her eyes went blind. "It's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the child. He was so young. How could he just…"
She burst into tears, and Su Cha gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go to Zhuzhou and bring the imperial physician back!"
He lifted his robe and was about to go out, when the housekeeper came to report, "The son-in-law is here with the doctor! The son-in-law is here with the doctor!"
"What is he doing here!" Sucha was furious. "This bastard, the child has been sick for so long and he didn't even come to see him!"
Widow Liu stopped him and said, "Let the doctor he brought come and see Fu Guang. The child's illness is the most important!"
Su Cha snorted heavily and said nothing more.
Pei Changfeng hadn't slept for three days. When he saw Su Wanwan's miserable appearance holding the child, his heart tightened and it felt like he was stabbed several times.
“Wanwan…”
Su Wanwan could not hear any other sound. She was just holding the barely breathing child. Her eyes were so swollen that she could hardly see clearly.
Pei Changfeng squatted down and said, "Wanwan, give me the child."
After he said it countless times, Su Wanwan finally looked up. Seeing that it was him, she cried, "What are you doing here? Didn't you say you don't want us mother and son anymore? Why are you here?"
Pei Changfeng wanted to hold the baby, "Wanwan, be obedient and give the baby to me first. I'll find a doctor and ask him to check the baby."
Hearing the word "doctor", Su Wanwan slowly loosened her hand.
The doctor who came with Pei Changfeng took the child and looked at him. His expression instantly became serious, "Quick, boil some water!"
The doctor carried the child into the inner room. Su Wanwan stood up and wanted to follow him, but her feet were unstable and she fell to the side.
Pei Changfeng caught her and felt her slenderness. His eyes almost became sore instantly.
"Child, child..." Su Wanwan hadn't slept for two or three days. She clutched Pei Changfeng's clothes tightly. "It's all my fault. I heard everything. A mother can't be in a bad mood. The child will feel it too. It's all my fault. I've been worried about you these days. Fu Guang must have felt it. He knows his father doesn't want him anymore, so he got sick..."
"Wanwan," Pei Changfeng's eyes were moist, and he buried his head in Su Wanwan's hair, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't refuse Fu Guang, nor did I apologize to you. It's just that I have more important things to do now, so I can't tell you. You believe me."
He almost trembled and choked as he spoke these words.
Su Wanwan couldn't hear clearly what he said, her mind was filled with only her child.
Su Cha came in and saw the two of them hugging each other. He was so furious that he pulled Pei Changfeng away.
Pei Changfeng was pulled to the ground by him, his face pale.
Su Cha scolded him, "Are you still a man? Where were you when Fu Guang was sick? Were you hanging out with that damn princess? I'm telling you, if anything happens to my grandson today, I will kill you two dogs!"
Pei Changfeng let him scold him without saying a word.
Until the doctor in the house came out, "Be quiet!"
Su Cha then shut up, but his expression was still ugly. Anyone could see that he wanted to pin Pei Changfeng down and give him a good beating.
I don’t know how long it took before the doctor came out.
The doctor sighed, and everyone in the room felt sad.
Su Wanwan's body swayed and she almost fainted. Widow Liu's voice trembled, "Doctor, how is Fu Guang?"
The doctor stroked his beard and said, "It was almost impossible to save him."
The doctor said, "If your son-in-law hadn't come all the way to Zhuzhou to find me, I wouldn't have come!"
Su Cha reacted, "Are you the imperial physician who retired and returned home?"
The doctor said, "How could it be otherwise? Who else but me can cure this child's illness? Well, I have already cured the child's illness. I have also left the prescription. Take it three times a day, and he will be cured in five days."
Hearing him say this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Wanwan wanted to thank him, but her body went limp and she fainted.
When Su Wanwan woke up again, it was already late at night.
Xiao Fuguang lay beside her, his breathing was steady and his face wasn't as yellow anymore.
She kissed the child's cheek and wanted to cry. In a blink of an eye, she found someone lying beside the bed. Then she saw clearly that it was Pei Changfeng.
Pei Changfeng must be extremely tired. There was a layer of dark stubble on his chin, the dark color under his eyes was obvious, and there was quite a bit of dust on his clothes.
Su Wanwan already knew that he was the one who invited the imperial physician from Zhuzhou, but she did not feel any gratitude in her heart. Pei Changfeng was the father of the child, and this was what he should do.
In other words, if it weren't for Pei Changfeng's betrayal, everything that happened afterwards might not have happened.
Su Wanwan still felt resentful and hateful. Why didn't Su Cha drive Pei Changfeng out? Su Wanwan didn't know.
She looked for a while, and seeing that Pei Changfeng was about to wake up, she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep again.
She felt a pair of eyes falling on her, so gentle and familiar.
Pei Changfeng touched her cheek lightly, then kissed Xiao Fuguang's forehead. He just looked at the mother and son, with reluctance and more guilt in his eyes.
Hong Xing pushed the door open and glanced at Pei Changfeng.
Pei Changfeng said: "Put it down, I'll do it."
Hong Xing hesitated for a moment and stepped back.
Pei Changfeng brought the medicine bowl over, "Wanwan, get up and drink the medicine."
Su Wanwan pretended to have just woken up and said in a cold voice, "What kind of medicine is this?"
Pei Changfeng said: "This is the medicine that Fu Guang needs to take. Take it and then feed him the milk."
Su Wanwan didn't know how much of these medicines she had taken in the past few days. She didn't hesitate and quickly finished the whole bowl of medicine.
Although she was so efficient, Pei Changfeng was not pleased with her understanding and maturity. Instead, he felt distressed about her change.
After taking the medicine, Su Wanwan lay down for about half a minute, and then Xiao Fuguang woke up.
When she undressed and was left with only her bellyband, she realized something and looked up.
Pei Changfeng stared blankly at the place on her bellyband that was soaked with milk.
After the short separation, the couple felt a little strange.
Su Wanwan was angry that he was so tired and still had the mind to think about other things, so she covered the child and her chest with a quilt and began to feed the baby.
Pei Changfeng knew that she didn't want him to look, so he had to look at Su Wanwan's face instead. She was still as beautiful as before, nothing had changed. The only thing that had changed was that he was no longer qualified to go to bed with her.
Xiao Fuguan still seemed to have no appetite and didn't eat for a long time. Su Wanwan became a little anxious, and then he started to eat in small bites.
The room was so quiet that the sound of the baby feeding was so obvious.
Even if they tried not to think about it too much, some past scenes would still pop up in Pei Changfeng and Su Wanwan's minds.
Su Wanwan's cheeks flushed red. She tried to remain calm and pretended to be asleep. When Xiao Fuguang didn't want to eat anymore, she opened her eyes as if nothing had happened.
But when she opened her eyes and met Pei Changfeng's deep gaze, Su Wanwan couldn't help but feel her heart beating wildly.
