Zhili obviously ignored the reminder from his senior sister just now and didn't know how to pay attention to the words he used.
He nodded, not feeling anything was wrong.
Xia Zhaoyi was silent.
Zhili continued: "Brother Shen is really outstanding. I wouldn't be surprised if anyone falls in love with Brother Shen, just like I wouldn't be surprised if someone likes you, Senior Sister. Senior Sister, you are also the object of desire and yearning for many men.
ah."
Xia Zhaoyi raised her eyes and looked at his back. The ointment seemed to have dried.
"Everyone in the world loves beauty, beautiful flowers, beautiful birds, beautiful mountains and clear waters, and willows and willows. There will never be anyone who likes bats or mud pits and dung, right?"
Xia Zhaoyi took a deep breath: "You're going too far."
"Then, senior sister, what do you want to ask?"
"It's not just about appearance," Xia Zhaoyi thought for a while and said, "It's... my heart is moved."
"It's human nature to have a heartbeat."
"Then, what do you think about the relationship between men and women?"
Zhili frowned, seeming to be thinking seriously and did not answer immediately.
Xia Zhaoyi put down the tea cup and went back, lying down on the bed, letting Xia Zhaoyi tear off the dried ointment.
After being quiet for a while, he said indifferently: "Senior sister, I think most of the love between men and women is vulgar, but in fact, it is very beautiful."
"good?"
"Well, love based on understanding, respect, affection, and equality will not be unhappy."
Understand, respect, love, and equality.
Xia Zhaoyi thought softly.
"But men and women are mostly not equal in this world," Zhili continued. "I heard that a hundred years ago, it was difficult for women to even go out. In some places, women had to have their feet bound. Not to mention the distance, just like the villages at the foot of Liling Mountain,
If you can't give birth to a son, you are ridiculed as a useless chicken that can't lay eggs, which is really abominable. So how can they have love?"
Although Xia Zhaoyi was listening and thinking, the movements of her hands never stopped.
Zhili didn't complain of pain this time. The ointment was very numb. Even though there was still a faint pain, it was much better than before.
Seeing that Xia Zhaoyi didn't say anything, Zhili continued: "Senior sister is different. Senior sister is independent and free, and has her own opinions. If you like her, it must be natural, not artificial."
"Natural," Xia Zhaoyi said, "natural between heaven and earth?"
"Um."
After being quiet for a while, Xia Zhaoyi said: "...your words sound a little strange to me, I need to think about it."
"What's weird?"
"Let me think about it first."
Zhili nodded and lay back.
At this time, the numbness on his back slightly disappeared, and he could gradually clearly feel his senior sister's fingers pushing hard around his bones.
"Alas," Zhili endured the pain and sighed quietly, "I'm afraid that Brother Shen won't like you, and you will be ruthless when the time comes."
Su Yumei came over with some clean clothes in her hands to knock on the door. When she heard this, she was stunned and paused.
Xia Zhaoyi's fingers didn't stop: "I know what's wrong."
"where?"
"If he doesn't like me, but I like him, then if I pursue him, wouldn't it be artificial, not natural?"
"...It seems to make sense."
Xia Zhaoyi stood up and picked up another bottle of plaster.
Zhili thought for a moment and then said: "Apart from Luo Hua's intention, I am actually more afraid of another guess."
"What guess?"
"If you like Brother Shen, and Brother Shen also likes you, but after liking each other for a while, you no longer like each other, then can you still be friends?"
Xia Zhaoyi was also confused.
"After all, everything in the world has changed. Yesterday I liked clear tea, today I like green tea, and tomorrow I might like sour plum soup. It is human nature to change one's heart. You have to suppress a person's head and force him not to change his mind.
That would be contrary to nature."
"If that's the case, it's actually simple," Xia Zhaoyi said, "If they are united, they will gather, if they are not united, they will disperse."
"That's true. You and Brother Shen are so different in nature that they can't become bitter couples. It's a pity that there are too many people in this world who can't let go of each other."
Su Yumei blinked her eyes. The conversation between the senior sisters and brother sounded real...
"However," Zhili continued, "Although I confirm that you two will not become resentful couples, the relationship has still changed to some extent, and the friendship will definitely not be as pure and innocent as it is now. Senior sister, you have to think clearly about this.
"
Xia Zhaoyi nodded, and after finishing the order, he finally noticed the door.
Zhili also looked at it.
"Who is outside?" Xia Zhaoyi said calmly.
After a pause, Su Yumei said: "Miss Ah Li, it's me."
Xia Zhaoyi went to open the door, but Su Yumei felt uncomfortable: "I was about to knock on the door just now. When I heard you guys talking, I..."
"Come in." Xia Zhaoyi said.
Su Yumei put the clothes on the table and saw Xia Zhaoyi closing the door and approaching, with a calm expression on her charming face, not the slightest bit shy. She couldn't help but smile and said: "As expected of Miss Ali, she is quiet and calm, and has a calm demeanor."
"Sister Su, how much did you hear?" Zhili asked.
"Not much," Su Yumei smiled, "listening to your fellow seniors and sisters is really fun and thought-provoking."
"I originally wanted to find clues and solve the puzzle, but in the end," Xia Zhaoyi said, thinking, "it became more and more complicated."
"It's so difficult to understand," Zhi Liye said.
"Miss Ah Li," Su Yumei's voice softened and she said with a smile, "are you... in love with Shao Xia Shen?"
Xia Zhaoyi's face finally showed some uneasiness, and she calmed down for a while, and she said: "To be precise, I am wondering whether I like you or not."
"If you fall in love, you can't help it," Su Yumei said, smiling again, "Miss Ah Li, you are so kind."
"good?"
"Look how serious and prudent you are," Su Yumei said with a smile, "It's rare to see someone as clean and pure as you."
"People around us are so good at complimenting us lately..." Zhili couldn't help but say.
Su Yumei chuckled softly.
Thinking of the confused words that the girl in front of her would often say starting from the murmur at Shoushi Inn, Su Yumei suddenly understood everything, so she joked: "Actually, the more serious you are, the more you care about Miss Ali. This shows that this love has been deep for a long time."
Sow it."
"Have you actually reached the point of deep seeding?" Zhili was surprised and looked at Xia Zhaoyi.
Xia Zhaoyi: "..."
Xia Zhaoyi glanced at him, said nothing, lowered her head and continued to apply medicine.
"It's a pity that you have to leave early tomorrow morning," Su Yumei said, "otherwise, I can help pay attention to Shen Shaoxia's attitude towards you."
"I think Brother Shen treats my senior sister just like he treats me," Zhili muttered, "he treats us as his younger brother and younger sister."
"If this is the case, it will be difficult," Su Yumei said, "But if you like someone, you don't necessarily want to be together."
"Yes, you don't have to ask for a partner, Si Sichun is fine too." Zhili nodded.
After clicking, he suddenly let out a scream.
Xia Zhaoyi stopped her hand calmly: "I told you to pay attention to your words, but you didn't listen. My hand must have slipped."
