As the owner of the Pavilion, and separated from his mother for more than three months, Li Haitang moved out all the good things he usually hid.Eat, wear, play, and babble to Yan's family.Eating snacks that he had never seen before, touching all kinds of strange objects, and listening to his daughter's non-stop chatter, Yan's smile was doting and his heart was sad.The mother and daughter sat in the bedroom on the second floor, and Li Haitang instructed Yang and Li to prepare hot water, and she wanted to bathe with Yan.The two sisters-in-law agreed with a smile and led the old woman and the little maids to the big bathroom on the first floor to work.This bathing room has a large tub, which is large enough for four people to bathe at the same time.Li Haitang personally went to the dressing room to get clothes, and asked Yang Yanxi to pick up her newly made jacket and skirt.Yan insisted on refusing to wear Yang Yan's clothes and blamed Li Haitang for being ignorant.Yang Yanchang smiled and comforted a few words, and said that her new jacket skirt was made by Haitang, and she just borrowed flowers to offer Buddha for a reward.Yan always felt embarrassed, but Haitang insisted, and Yang also went to the backyard to get her new jacket skirt."
Mother, Grandma Yang and Grandma Li are my confidants, you just have to rest assured."
Li Haitang helped Yan down the stairs and came to the shower room on the first floor.Sister-in-law Li stepped forward, helped the Yan family in, and asked softly: "Big girl, I will serve with Sister-in-law Yang." ”"No need."
Li Haitang carefully helped Yan to sit in the bathtub and said, "Grandma Li and Grandma Yang are resting outside, if anyone asks, just tell the truth." ”"Yes."
Sister-in-law Li responded, handed the cotton towel to Haitang, and quietly withdrew from the shower.If the large bathing room is filled with smoke, the dripping water is like a mountain stream bubbling.The large tub takes up half of the room, and when combined with a small waterwheel and a drip drain, it looks like a hot spring built into the house.Li Haitang took off her coat, wore only a small coat and a small skirt, held the edge of the bath bucket and slowly stepped on the wooden step stool, and stepped into the bath bucket with her little feet to test the water temperature, before she jumped into the water boldly and sat down next to her mother.Although his eyes are blind, his senses of taste, hearing, and touch are more acute.As soon as Li Haitang sat beside him, Yan Shi stretched out his hand and groped for a cotton handkerchief to dip into the water, and groped for Haitang's little head with the other hand."
Why don't you tie your hair up?""
I like to wear it."
Li Haitang also grabbed a piece of cotton handkerchief and dipped it in the water, and began to offer treasure-like broken thoughts."
Mother, this bathing room was originally a warm pavilion, don't look at the freezing sky outside, it's warm to take a bath here.""
Mother, I have to bring a plate of grapes today, and when I finish taking a bath, let's go eat grapes, okay?""
Mother, do you have anything you want to eat?
I asked Grandma Yang and Grandma Li to arrange dinner. ”"Mother, your hands are frostbite again, does it hurt?
I've got the best gold cream here, and it's the best way to heal my wounds.Take a bottle back when you get home.In the future, if you run out of money, just ask Kuritaka to send a message, and I will send someone to send you home. ”"Mother, I'm very good here, I eat well, dress warmly, sleep well every day, and there are many old and little maids around me to serve.There are also the eldest sons of the Li clan and the second son of the Mo clan often come to see me. ”"Mother, you don't have to worry about me, I'm fine."…… Listening to her daughter talking about how comfortable her life was, Yan didn't have any joy, but sighed again and again, and the action of combing Haitang's long black hair was more gentle.What about food and clothing?
What about the stars holding the moon?
Her daughter left her father when she was only ten years old and was offered as a sacrifice.Five years later, the most beautiful age of the daughter's cardamom and charming was sacrificed to her ancestors.Her daughter only has a short lifespan of fifteen years, how can she not be sad."
Mother, why are you crying?""
Nothing.Mother is happy, happy. ”Yan's empty pupils actually appeared with a loving light, as if she could see her daughter, warm, kind, cherished, and doting......
"Mother!"
”Li Haitang choked up, couldn't hold back and threw herself into Yan's arms anymore, crying presumptuously and happily, and all the fear accumulated in her heart was vented.Yan hugged her daughter tightly, silently cried with her, and vented her devastating gloom together.She could feel her daughter trembling in her arms, and her crying grew hoarse."
Begonia?""
Mother."
Coquettishly lying in her mother's arms, Li Haitang squinted her red and swollen eyes, her little head pillowed on her mother's chest, and said sullenly: "Mother, bear with it a little longer, I have begun to find a way to save you from that home."
When the time comes, I will buy a house in Yanxia Town and send you and Wanghu to live there.Whoever is far away from that bad man, he will never be seen again. ”"Silly girl, no matter how bad he is, he is also your father."
Yan fumbled for her daughter's braids, as if she had gone back to seven years ago.In my memory, when Haitang was three years old, a neighbor moved into a family, which was Mo Xinlan's family.Since Mo Xinlan and Begonia have been her companions, Begonia has never pestered her to braid her hair again.The first thing she did when she got up every morning, the young little begonia grabbed the rope of her braided hair and ran to her neighbor to knock on Mo Xinlan's door, and then pestered Mo Xinlan to tell her stories all day long.Five years ago, Mo Xinlan became the daughter of the Mo clan, and the neighbor's family was also given a mansion by the Mo patriarch.Since then, the young little Begonia has lost her playmate, Sister Xiaolan, and has learned to be sensible, learn to help with farm work, learn to braid her own hair, and learn to take care of her younger brother."
Begonia, do you have a grudge in your heart?""
No complaints."
But I don't accept my fate, I want to do what Sister Xiaolan told me, I will never accept my fate.Li Haitang left Yan's arms and carefully wiped her mother's body.She told herself countless times that she couldn't ask her mother about her blindness, let alone that she had heard her father beat her violently and how she had blinded her.Hatred, resentment, and anger, she will be deeply engraved in her heart one by one, and she will get it back one by one when she becomes stronger.Yan didn't have the courage to tell Haitang the reason for her blindness, and she selfishly hoped that her daughter would never see the angry chestnut pot again in the next five years."
Mother, let's go back to the room."
Li Haitang summoned Yang and Li to take care of Yan's body drying and dressing together.Throughout the whole process, Begonia had a small face, looking at the new and old scars on her mother's body layer upon layer, bruises, purples, red, red and black, which stinged her eyes and hurt her heart."
Mother, get dressed, let's go back and eat grapes.Shall we have a little wine tonight and eat a hot pot around the fireplace?
”Yan's face warmed, patted the little hand on his arm, and said dotingly, "Listen to you." ”"Okay."
Li Haitang turned around and saw Yang and Li who were wiping their tears with their sleeves raised, and couldn't ignore the sympathy and anger on their faces."
Sister-in-law Li, you can send a message to the cook in the back kitchen to prepare.""
Yes."
Sister-in-law Li bowed and turned to the small door that led to the backyard.Yang and Li Haitang helped Yan to the bedroom on the second floor to rest, and the scene of seeing Yan's scarred body just now lingered in her mind for a long time.She couldn't understand how much hatred and hatred this was, which could make his wife who shared the bed so unbearable?
On a snowy night, the small warm pavilion in the Pavilion was full of comfort and joy.The mother and daughter gathered around the fire, tasting the hibiscus drunk sent by Zhuge Yi, eating all kinds of meat sent by Mo Shenghuan, as well as seasonal fresh vegetables sent by Li Junshen.Together with Yang and Li, they were also invited to sit next to the small stove and enjoy them together.and the old women and little maids who were originally in the Xiqiao Pavilion also got a pot of stewed meat, and the master and servant enjoyed it.Only the "eyeliner" sent by various clans and mansions only drooled from hunger, and secretly hated Li Haitang's unfairness in treating his subordinates, and complained to their own masters.A night of joy, most afraid of the dawn.Sleeping with his mother in his arms, he didn't sleep well that night.Early in the morning, Yan woke up early, tucked the quilt for his daughter, who was still asleep, and quietly withdrew from the small warm pavilion.was escorted away from the Pavilion, leaving Ciyu Town, and leaving her daughter."
Mother!"
Li Haitang woke up from the nightmare, and when she looked around her again, it was already empty, she lifted the quilt and got out of bed to find it in a hurry, only to find that her embroidered shoes were missing.() Glory to the end
