Seeing Wang Wei's eyes red and about to cry, Li Xiao realized that he had said the wrong thing and racked his brains to make up for it: "I didn't mean that. I mean, they are all dead. No matter how sad you are, they will also
I won’t survive.”
"You are lucky enough to be alive and well with your two little nephews."
After saying that, Li Xiao wanted to slap himself.
He is usually very talkative, but what happened today? Which of the words he said didn't sound right and what did he say?
Wang Wei sniffed and responded in a low voice: "Little General Li is right. With the current situation, thanks to Miss Zhao Liu's help, I am very satisfied."
"Thank you, General Li, for coming to see me today."
This is a polite way of saying goodbye.
Li Xiao didn't know whether he didn't understand or didn't want to leave. He grinned and said: "I came to Beihai County four days ago. I have been with Zheng Erlang and the Crown Prince these days. Today the Crown Prince is coming to Zhaojiafang. I heard you will stay here
Tonghua Lane, I just stopped by to have a look. No need to thank you for coming."
He glanced around and saw a stone table and chairs under the trees in the small yard. He went over and sat down very familiarly: "You come and sit down and talk."
Wang Wei had no choice but to come over and sit down: "Ding Xiang, go make a pot of tea."
The lively and pretty maid Ding Xiang quickly poked her head out in response and went to make tea quickly. Then she came over with a tea tray and a cup, and poured a cup for the master and the guest respectively.
Li Xiao was a little thirsty, so he raised his head and drank it in one gulp: "This tea is good, let's have another cup."
Cow chews peonies.
This is the delicious tea that the young lady specially brought from the Wang family. I can’t bear to drink it on weekdays!
Ding Xiang muttered in her heart and had to pour another cup.
Li Xiao drank three cups in a row before quenching his thirst. Look at Wang Wei again, holding the tea cup in both hands, sipping it carefully!
Li Xiao was not embarrassed and laughed: "The girl's family is just different from stinky men like us."
Wang Wei was amused, pursed her lips and smiled.
In terms of appearance, Wang Wei is also a beauty, but her skin is not very fair. In the past, she loved to put on makeup and powder, but now she is not in the mood and has no time to take care of it, so she just wears a plain face every day.
Li Xiao asked: "You live here with your two children. Is it enough to eat, drink and spend money on weekdays?"
Wang Wei replied softly: "When I came out of Wang's house, I took out the money I had saved for many years. I also took some gold and silver from the storehouse to save some money. It will be enough to raise the big man and the second man.
of."
In fact, the Wang family's financial resources are not very thin. However, if Wang Tong commits such evil deeds as turning into a bandit, according to the law, he will be beheaded and his house confiscated. Xu Jing specifically expressed his love to General Zheng, and Wang Wei was able to go back to the Wang family and bring some
When things come out, you don’t have to worry about food and drink. It’s absolutely impossible to live the same life as before.
Li Xiao hummed and looked at Wang Wei: "The big man and the second man are still young, can you bring them here by yourself?"
Wang Wei said: "I brought Dingxiang and Pan's mother. The three of us took care of Dalang Erlang."
Pan's mother does the menial work of cooking, cleaning and washing clothes. Wang Wei and Dingxiang take care of their two children. They are busy every day, and at night they are so tired that they fall asleep with their heads on the pillow, and there is no time for random thoughts.
Wang Wei picked some casual and interesting things to tell.
Li Xiao didn't mind it being trivial, he listened with great interest, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Li Xiao refused to leave, so Wang Wei had to politely persuade him to stay for lunch: "Little General Li, please stay and have lunch before leaving!"
Refuse quickly. Wang Wei thought silently in her heart.
It's a pity that Li Xiao didn't hear Wang Wei's thoughts and happily responded: "That's fine."
Wang Wei: "..."
Wang Wei had no choice but to turn around and tell Ding Xiang: "Go and tell Pan's mother to cook two more dishes at noon today. Go to the alley again and buy some cooked meat dishes such as beef and mutton."
Lilac responded.
Pan's mother was taking care of her two children, and now she was going to the kitchen to cook. Da Lang Erlang, who had been bored in the house for a long time, came out.
The eldest brother is more than three years old, and the second brother is only two years old. Both brothers are naughty and love to cling to their aunt. After they came out, they stayed close to their aunt and refused to leave. The second brother even shouted to be hugged.
Li Xiao smiled: "Come here, both of you. I'll show you an interesting game."
Both Dalang and the other two were ignorant children, and they immediately came over happily. Li Xiao stood up, picked up Dalang first, and threw him upwards with all his strength. Dalang flew high into the air and landed in Li Xiao's palm again, giggling excitedly.
He kept laughing. Erlang hugged Li Xiao's legs. Li Xiao put down Da Lang and threw Erlang up again.
In the small courtyard, Da Lang Erlang's exclamations and laughter rang out.
Wang Wei looked at this scene with a sore nose.
The eldest brother and the second brother have also practiced martial arts since childhood, and they often play with Da Lang Erlang like this every time they come back.
Unfortunately, this is all in the past.
No matter how difficult life is, you still have to survive, and people have to move forward.
…
At noon, a dining table was set up in the Wang family courtyard. There were six steaming dishes on the table and four cold meat dishes.
Wang Wei was a little apologetic: "The food is too simple."
Li Xiao smiled and said: "I usually eat the same food as the soldiers in the military camp. Every meal has one dish and one soup. The steamed buns are enough. I can only eat meat every two days. The meal in front of me is already very rich."
Li Xiao was not polite either. Like the autumn wind blowing away the fallen leaves, he ate most of the dishes on the table. He did not forget to take care of the three aunt and nephew Wang Wei. With a move of his chopsticks, the bowls of Wang Wei and Dalang Erlang were filled to the brim.
's: "Don't watch me eat, you eat too."
Wang Wei: "..."
Wang Wei was a little embarrassed at first, but then she gradually became calmer.
With the Wang family in this situation, what else can be plotted?
It was rare for Li Xiao to be a guest, so she entertained her for half a day. After that, they walked to each other on the road. After today, I'm afraid they wouldn't even have a chance to meet.
After lunch, Li Xiao finally stood up and said goodbye.
Wang Wei felt relieved and led Da Lang and Er Lang to bid farewell to the distinguished guests.
Pan's mother went to clean up the dishes and wash the dishes, Ding Xiang hugged Da Lang and patted him, and Wang Wei coaxed Er Lang. Only when both children fell asleep, Wang Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
Ding Xiang whispered: "My servant is here to keep watch. Miss, go to sleep!"
Wang Wei said: "I'm not sleepy."
Ding Xiang said bluntly: "Miss, are you thinking about that General Li?"
Wang Wei was a little embarrassed, but did not deny it: "When we were in Qinglong Village that day, he reached out to help me. I didn't expect that he would come today."
"Miss, don't be tempted." Ding Xiang muttered: "He is an official, and the master has become a bandit. He will inevitably have to fight in the future."
Yes, a bandit's daughter is lucky to be alive, so she shouldn't have any delusions.
Wang Wei lowered her head: "I want to take a nap, you go out!"
Ding Xiang was not used to the sudden politeness of the young lady: "Miss used to like throwing pillows at me and telling me to get out. Otherwise, I'd better throw it today!"
Wang Wei: "..."
