Reading The Remnants (Wen Guan) - Chapter 56
When they saw Song Nineteen, Ah Yin and A Luo understood what Li Shi meant.
She shut herself in the room, and Ah Yin knocked patiently for a long time before opening the door. The look in front of her was shocking. She seemed to be more mature again, with apricot eyes hooked up on the tail, well-defined eyelashes, a dangling nose, and the same lip that couldn’t fit.
What is shocking is not her majestic appearance, but her thin and pale limbs, the protruding cheekbones have faded away from the original soft waxy, the center of the collarbone is tucked in, and the hands holding the door are slender. Long, the area where the wrist connects with the thumb is thinner.
She put her depleted body in a large nightgown, her waist-length hair draped down, standing in the shadow of the backlight like a ghost.
What’s more strange is her expression, her muddy eyeballs, glamorously fluttered on the faces of several people, paused at Li Eleven, and then lowered extremely quickly, pushed the door with her hand, and turned her head towards Walk on the bed.
She didn’t have the thought to say hello to everyone, and even lost interest in Li Shiyi, lying quietly on the bed with her back to her back, with her hand on her cheek.
Ayin glanced at Li Shiyi, saw her pursing her mouth, moved her chin forward, and then retracted it.
She is sad.
Ayinti stepped in, and the room was ventilated for a long time. She touched her nose slightly, and opened the curtains in three or two steps, and then opened the window tightly, with a sound of sunshine pouring in, greedy. The people in the room slapped their eyelashes uncomfortably, but Li Shiyi stood in the middle, his eyes never left from Song Shiji.
Ayin walked quickly to the bed, put his hand on Song Jiu’s sunken waist, touched a handful of bones, distressed so much that he didn’t dare to use any more force, only raised his head and asked others: “What’s the matter?”
Now that Ayin knew the reason, Li Shiyi didn’t lie to her: “I went to Sheshan with her to find the statue of the Baiyu God. She accidentally moved the snake’s offering table and was hit by the snake’s tail whip.”
The experience was so similar, and Ah Yin was stunned for a lifetime. The hand that pressed Song Jiu was slightly curled up and turned into a fist on it. After a moment of silence, he said, “That…”
She couldn’t say the rest.
Li Shiyi shook his head: “She has different symptoms.”
The youngest Tu interface: “I don’t like words anymore, and I don’t even sleep. I wander in the building at night, like a ghost.”
“The most curious thing is that I don’t eat too much food. I eat two mouthfuls and vomit three mouthfuls, and I vomit.” He used an idiom, and sighed like an old man. Like an awl, I got up early in the morning and bought chicken, and discussed with Eleven to make a soup to make up. It just so happened that you were in the door.”
“Nineteen.” Ayin leaned down, touching her back and calling her softly.
Song 19’s auricle moved, and slowly turned his head to look at her. There was still no light in his eyes. After watching for a while, he said, “Ayin.”
Her voice was like a newborn lamb, weak and trembling, as if she would chase the wind if she hadn’t been put in her ears in time.
Li Shiyi looked at her, his jaw slightly protruding.
Ayin frowned, put her hand on her face, rubbing up and down twice, just about to comfort her, but put a soft hand on her shoulder, she turned her head and listened to A Luo whispered: “Go out.”
The door was closed again, and several people went downstairs. Arrow walked beside Li Shiyi and said in a low voice: “It’s not a snake.”
Li Shiyi turned his face and listened to her again: “The snake has a perverse temperament. I have never heard of it making people so gloomy.”
“What’s the matter?” The youngest Tu Yao at the front turned and asked.
Arrow didn’t understand either, he thought, and looked at Li Shixi meaningfully: “Could it be that… I met someone with a bad heart.”
“It hurts.”
The words “Badhearted Man” pierced their ears so hard that everyone’s footsteps stopped. The youngest Tu Yaoer didn’t dare to look at Li Shiyi, and Ayin Jianzi coughed while covering her mouth.
Li Shiyi squinted at Arrow and stared at her.
Arrow first withdrew his soldiers, smiling weakly at the corners of his mouth, holding on to the railing with his bare hands, and walking slenderly down the stairs.
The four words “take a seat with the right sign” always carry some guilty conscience, which often makes people feel good.
At midday, the stewed chicken soup enveloped the entire restaurant with the strongest aroma, and the oily foam thickly floated on the top, protecting the deliciousness of the broth very well. Tu Laoyao went up to greet Song Jiu with the bowls and chopsticks. Several people waited around the table for a while, only to see her walking downstairs vainly, changing into a moon-white cheongsam.
Her long hair was pulled up with a wooden hairpin. It was clear that she didn’t use pink or daikon, but she had the impression of “being lighter and brighter than the flowers”, which made her eyebrows bright and moving.
Li Shiyi tilted his head and glanced at her, still stubbornly feeling that the snake had a little effect.
The effect is subtle and intelligent, just steaming out the femininity she has kept for a long time, fighting with the original immature, and faintly gaining the upper hand.
Or, it wasn’t the snake that made her mature, but the melancholy feeling between her eyebrows, and the feeling of avoidance between her gestures and gestures.
For example, she lowered her eyelashes without even looking at Li Shiyi.
Li Shiyi put the bowl in front of her, and she hurriedly glanced at it. Li Shiyi handed her the chopsticks and deliberately pinched the middle part, but she paused to catch the far bottom and pulled the bamboo chopsticks over.
“Thank you,” she said like a mosquito.
The alternation of incomprehension and alienation caused Li’s eleventh five-year taste to be mixed, and his chest moved astringently.
Youngest Tu was picking up the meal, his eyes pierced unwillingly, and he wished to be born on both of her.
Ayin looked at Song XIX without noticing that A Luo put a piece of chicken into her bowl, but instinctively said “Thank you.” Arrow glanced at her softly, then picked the chicken back.
eat by yourself.
Ah Yin looked at her in surprise, at her chewing cheeks, and raised her brows.
Suddenly trying to understand something, she lowered her head and pursed her mouth and smiled.
The food was silent, and the few people ran out of food cleanly. Youngest Tu volunteered to tidy up the dishes. Seeing that Song XIX hadn’t vomited this time, Ah Yin put aside a snack, saying that the boats and cars were exhausted. Go upstairs and rest.
The mansion fell into the tranquility of a siesta. Li Shiyi leaned on the pillow and couldn’t fall asleep. She went to the small garden and wandered around. He stopped amidst the creak, and kicked the stone lightly with his right foot.
She suddenly thought of the dancing girl that she saw in the garden that night. The moonlight gauze gleamed on her body, enveloping her shiningly, but she didn’t realize it, never knew she had done it like this. The beautiful back was burned into the high eyes of the man by the window.
Li Shiyi raised his eyes and looked to the second floor. Song Shiji’s room was completely dark, and the curtains were tightly drawn, so that no chance of prying eyes was allowed.
The loss came in a hurry, so Li Shixi lost his thoughts of viewing flowers, and walked back, walking to the gate, but unexpectedly ran into Song Shiji, who was about to go out.
She was wearing flat shoes, and the top of her head only reached Li Shi’s nose. Seeing her, she was stunned for a while, then quickly lowered her head, stepped back and gave way.
The fire that had been holding back for a few days was born in her small movements, her expressionless face was probably the same as the highest level of Li Shixi’s anger. At this moment, she looked at her like this, tilted her head slightly, and frowned. It didn’t wrinkle.
Song Nineteen raised his head to look at her, and placed his pale little face in Li Shishi’s sight from bottom to top. Li Shiyi shook his head slightly, and the depressive coolness in his eyes instantly became a soft exploration. Slowly and without refusal, he replied to Song Jiu’s eyes.
Her gaze caused Song Jiu’s cheeks to be covered with a layer of little chestnuts, she moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, and finally lowered her head and made a move that she wanted to go out.
Li Shiyi didn’t let it go.
She stood in the center and quietly watched Song Nineteen for five or six seconds, until she sniffed her nose, then withdrew her legs, leaned against the door, and watched her go out.
When I turned back, I suddenly ran into Ah Yin’s eyes, and Ah Yin leaned on the railing to look at her, his body was as bumpy as a white porcelain vase.
When he received her eyes, Ah Yin suddenly understood something. It turned out that Li Shiyi’s feelings for Song Shiji, which he had seen before, were actually covered by Li Shiyi’s restraint. It was only by accident that he floated up, as if by accident. There is no weight.
Suddenly seeing her feel helpless and stunned without time to recover, it makes people suddenly aware of the existence of this restraint.
Her resentment towards Li Shiyi’s hourglass, like a landslide, quickly lost a big chunk. On the one hand, in any case, she was very grateful that Li Shiyi had cared about her feelings intentionally or unintentionally; on the other hand, she understood that feelings are a real bastard. If someone tortured you, someone tortured her directly or indirectly. No one can retreat with his whole body, and no one can stand in the clouds forever and enjoy the love of others.
She really shouldn’t judge Li Shiyi as the perpetrator.
So Shi Shiran moved her steps and said to Li eleven: “Her condition is really unusual, it must be due to it. You go upstairs and rest for the time being, and I will ask for you later.”
Li Shiyi paused and said to her, “Thank you very much.”
Ah Yin smiled, turned and walked upstairs.
It turned out that one day Li Shiyi would also thank her for being thanked by others. It turned out that one day, she would be able to accept this thank you calmly.
