The Way of Favors - Chapter 283

???? Fu Xuan followed Wu Baiqi into his study.

The study room is very spacious and bright, but there are too few bookshelves, only two rows on the east side, which seems to be empty inside.

Wu Baiqi touched his head awkwardly, “I didn’t like to read before…”

Fu Xuan saw it, looked inside, and went to the bookshelf.

The first row is filled with miscellaneous books such as Zhiguai Travel Notes and Hundred Beasts’ captivity, sometimes mixed with two books on warfare. Fu Xuan read them one by one, and quickly moved to the second row. Here are the four books and five classics used in the imperial examination. The books are as new as ever, as if they have never been read.

It was almost as she expected, guessing that there should be nothing she likes here, and Fu Xuan quickened his pace.

Walked to the middle and stopped.

On the top row is a red sandalwood box, one foot long, without any mark on it.

“What’s there?” Fu Xuan asked, raising his head.

Wu Baiqi’s constant smile on his face froze for a while, then he paused and said, “Does Xuanxuan want to see the painting my mother left for me?”

He tilted his head up and his face was lonely. It was not the look he showed when he deliberately pretended to be wronged, but the nostalgia for his loved ones.

Fu Xuan had no intention of evoking Wu Baiqi’s sadness, but she understood that he was willing to show her. At this time, she refused, and Wu Baiqi’s injury would only be deeper, so she nodded gently, her tone softened unconsciously, “Yeah.”

Wu Baiqi took off the box, and the two went to the desk.

Wu Baiqi asked Fu Xuan to sit first. He moved the chair opposite, took a seat next to her, and opened the unlocked box.

Inside are sheets of drawing paper.

Fu Xuan stretched out his hand and took it out.

The top one is a family of three. The couple on the picture is still very young, and the child led by them is only three or four years old.

“This is my mother’s painting.” Wu Baiqi said proudly, looking at the woman on the painting, “She died of illness when I was four years old. I have no impression of my mother. The mother said that my mother is a talented woman and she is best at calligraphy and painting… …This box was drawn by her for our family, and my father and her. I picked a few of them, and the rest are hidden in the storeroom, including those of my mother’s collection. If Xuanxuan wants to read it, I will pack it and move it over the next day. Give you.”

Fu Xuan was completely shocked.

She loves calligraphy and painting, and of course she also appreciates calligraphy and painting. Just looking at the delicate appearance of the costumes on the first picture, the subtle and vivid expressions of the family of three, and the inscriptions on the side like green bamboo, you know that the mother-in-law who was never seen is indeed She is a talented woman.

She heard Wu Baiqi’s words, but she didn’t seem to have heard them. If she had a treasure that the world didn’t know, she would appreciate it carefully.

The expression is focused and the brows are quiet.

Wu Bai’s gaze gradually fell on his wife’s face.

Is his mother as unloving as Xuanxuan?

How do mothers and fathers get along?

He looked at her and was proud of her. His mother was alive in the sky, and he would be relieved to learn that he married such a good wife?

With the joy of a good wife, the sadness of missing her parents was diminished, and he glanced at the painting in his wife’s hand. Wu Baiqi smiled and said, “They all say I am like a father. What does Xuanxuan think?”

Fu Xuan looked at the boy in the painting, and he could indeed see the shadow of Wu Baiqi. Then he looked at the tall man and the beautiful woman next to him. Fu Xuan looked carefully for a moment before saying: “At first glance, it looks like a father, but his lips are like a mother-in-law, you Seeing the mother-in-law also knows this, and I deliberately used my mind here to draw a lot of resemblance.”

The green fingers touched Wu Baiqi’s lips in the painting.

However, Wu Baiqi tilted his head to look at her beautiful red lips, and his voice became a little bit muffled unconsciously, “Xuan Xuan is like a mother-in-law or a father-in-law?”

Fu Xuan raised his eyes and saw his gaze fixed on her lips, realizing that he was thinking about it again, and he just didn’t know and continued to look at the painting.

Wu Baiqi felt tired, and simply lay down on the table to look at her.

That is, Fu Xuan, immersed in the talent of her mother-in-law, replaced by the girl next to her, being stared at by the man so much, she was not annoyed but also ashamed.

Wu Baiqi’s mind is not unnecessarily unpredictable, he just likes to be with Fu Xuan, he likes to watch her seriously, so he doesn’t want to look at it, the familiar itching on his legs.

Wu Bai’s heart jumped, fearing to start Fu Xuan, he slowly sat upright, turned to the other side, lowered his head, and saw a small black snake crawling up his leg. Wu Bai lifted his soul into the sky, trying not to provoke Fu Xuan’s attention, and quietly grabbed the little black snake. The snake was too small to be held in the palm of his hand like a rope.

At the door, Ah Zhen held a cage in his hand and gestured to him pleadingly, explaining that he didn’t mean it.

Wu Baiqi couldn’t care about him now, holding the little black snake in one hand, looking for the little white snake while looking down on the ground, he didn’t see it for a while, but he was strange in his heart, and saw the little white snake on the leg of Fu Xuan’s chair leisurely climbing up. . Remembering the good deeds this rogue snake had done, but now he was still thinking about his wife, Wu Bai became very angry and stooped to grab it.

“what are you doing?”

His back was hit by his head, and Fu Xuan turned to look at him.

Wu Baiqi hurriedly hid his hands behind his back and raised his chin towards the door, “A Zhen is looking for me. Xuanxuan, you will see for yourself first, and I will go out.”

Said and ran away.

Fu Xuan glanced at him suspiciously.

Wu Baiqi held the snake in both hands. After going out, Ah Zhen thoughtfully closed the study door. Wu Bai first put the two little snakes in the cage, and then whispered, “How did you let it out?”

Seeing the two little snakes in the cage, he was so angry and wronged that he saw the two little snakes in the cage swaying his head and begging for favor with his mother. , I couldn’t move with chopsticks. I was afraid of something wrong with them, so I quickly took them out. They still didn’t move. I didn’t dare to disturb the old man. I wanted to invite old man Li to see. They walked to the entrance of the courtyard and didn’t intend to look back. It’s…”

These two little snakes, which seem to never grow up, have been raised by the elders to have spirituality. How can anyone else have such a cunning thing?

But Wu Baiqi and You Rongyan went into the wing with the cage, and sighed at the two babies, “I don’t want to leave you alone, but I can say that I am afraid. Then you can only stay here. Don’t worry, I will do it whenever I have time. I come to see you at least twice a day. From now on, you are not allowed to run around. If you are scared to Xuanxuan, I will really throw you on Zhuangzi, and I will visit you once a month.”

The black and white impermanence did not understand or did not understand, each with its thin tail tipped out of the cage and touched the master’s hand.

Wu Baiqi is really reluctant to bear these two babies that have been raised for many years, but he can’t bear it anymore, there are more important babies over there. Finally, he glanced at the cage and told Ah Zhen not to get into trouble again. Wu Baiqi walked out quickly and washed in the main room. I went to the study to find a daughter-in-law.

Fu Xuan glanced at him when he heard the door pushing.

Wu Baiqi asked her thoughtfully: “Is it hot, can I let someone bring ice?”

Fu Xuan shook his head, thinking that he might be hot for a moment, and said: “The son of the world feels hot, just tell them.”

The study was actually quite cool. Wu Baiqi didn’t bother anyone, so he sat back next to Fu Xuan again and continued to look at her on her stomach, only to find that her eyes were a little red.

“Are you crying?” Wu Bai became anxious. The first thing he thought of was that Fu Xuan had just seen him hiding the snake. He was about to admit his mistake and caught a glimpse of the mother and son in the painting. Then he looked at how Fu Xuan was not angry, and said in disbelief: “Xuan Xuan, Xuan Xuan loves me?”

She feels distressed that he lost his mother early, so he cried?

Fu Xuan frowned, put away the drawing paper and put it in the box, and calmly explained: “The world has thought about it a lot, I just feel sorry for the mother-in-law.”

She has no children yet, but she has a niece and a niece, and she also drew a portrait of Yuanyuanzheng brother, so she understood the tender feelings of her mother-in-law when she wrote the pen, and then she saw a different one. A pair of children and a man are painted on it. The man is not a father-in-law, but he looks like a father-in-law and has Wu Baiqi’s lips. Based on these two points, when the time of signing is the year the mother-in-law died of illness, Fu Xuan understands that the mother-in-law painted The son and daughter-in-law she imagined…

The unwilling sorrow of life and death, through these paintings and these words, passed to her heart.

Fu Xuan did not know why she was crying. She sympathized with the mother who couldn’t take care of the children by herself, and also sympathized with the children who had lost their parents a long time ago. Because of her parents’ love and brotherhood, she knew the satisfaction and happiness of family reunion. Understand the opposite of misery.

Wu Baiqi didn’t believe it, and decided that she felt sorry for him.

Knowing that she was thin-skinned, Wu Baiqi no longer forced her to tell the truth, and asked her warmly: “What are we doing now?”

Thinking of the few scenery in the painting, Fu Xuan said as he walked out, “Shizi, take me to the garden.”

From now on, this is her home. It should be familiar or familiar, and she and Wu Baiqi must try to live it. They all decided to marry. It doesn’t make sense to care about what was right or wrong before. Fortunately, Wu Baiqi’s nature is not bad, and now he’s working as a errand in the palace.

Wu Baiqi was heartbroken and said that he didn’t feel sorry for him. If he didn’t feel sorry for him, would he want to visit the garden with him?

He led his wife out with excitement, and found that the sun outside had begun to dazzle. Wu Baiqi asked kindly: “Should you send someone to get an umbrella? Don’t get tanned.”

Fu Xuan hesitated.

Wu Baiqi immediately asked A Zhen to find the umbrella, and when he got it back, Wu Baiqi sent away the obnoxious long follower, and he held it to Fu Xuan personally, satisfied that he could help her.

Seeing him smiling so happily, Fu Xuan didn’t open his mouth, knowing that he would not agree to let her take it by herself.

The garden here is a bit smaller than that in Jingyanghou’s Mansion. Wu Bai picked up a few of the best scenery and took her around, slowly reaching the waterside pavilion by the lake. The couple walked over, Wu Bai lifted his umbrella, and saw that Fu Xuan was about to take a seat. He said anxiously: “Wait!”

Fu Xuan looked at him suspiciously.

Wu Baiqi put the umbrella, took out the veil from his arms, wiped the bench carefully to make sure it was clean, then smiled and stood up straight, “You can sit now.”

His eyes are bright and his smile is pure.

Fu Xuan was not accustomed to this kind of goodness. After sitting down, he said to the lake, “‘My son doesn’t need to be like this. Since I am married to you, I just want to have a good time with you. As long as you stop playing tricks, I won’t I blame you for the past.”

Wu Baiqi couldn’t believe it, “Are you really not angry with me?”

Fu Xuan nodded lightly.

Without Wu Baiqi’s help, she and Xue Rong were the only ones in the woods that day. What Xue Rong would do, Fu Xuan could not think.

Her eyelashes are long and slender, hanging down like grass on the edge of a lake, and her eyes are the tranquil water of the lake.

Wu Baiqi was stunned and couldn’t help holding her hand. She stiffened and didn’t avoid it.

Wu Baiqi’s heartbeat speeded up suddenly, looked at her, and asked nervously: “So, I, can I touch you?”

A trace of uneasiness flashed on Fu Xuan’s face, and he pushed his hand away and said: “Please ask the elder son to observe the ceremony in the daytime.”

Daytime observance, in other words, no need to observe at night?

Wu Baiqi was so happy and stupid, he obediently retracted his hand, blushing, and promised: “Okay, I, I will never touch you during the day!”

Fu Xuan turned around and looked at the lake.

Wu Baiqi stared at her side face and saw her pretty face white and tender. Thinking about what she said just now, Wu Baiqi said seriously: “Xuanxuan, I am not good to you because I want to coax you to forgive me, but I like you. Good to you. You don’t know. After my mother left, I liked to pester my dad, and then my dad went, I like to stay by myself, like to raise something to talk to me, and just talk to them… until I met you. Xuanxuan, when I was young, I was ignorant. I just thought it was fun to bully you. When I got older, I found out that I wanted to marry too…”

Fu Xuan’s eyes moved.

Wu Baiqi plucked up the courage to sit opposite her, looked at her eyes and said, “Xuanxuan, I will be good to you. If you don’t like me, just tell me, I will change everything, as long as you let me stay by your side. , I listen to you everything.”

With sincere eyes, Fu Xuan thought for a while, lowered his eyes and said: “When I am reading and practicing, I don’t like people talking next to me…”

Wu Baiqi immediately said, “Then I don’t speak, I’ll just watch you from the side, right?”

Fu Xuan defaulted.

Looking at the beautiful face in front of him, remembering the taste he tasted last night, Wu Bai rubbed his hands and asked carefully, “Then, I kissed you like that last night, do you like it or not?”

Fu Xuan’s expression changed sharply.

Wu Bai panicked, “Xuanxuan, don’t get me wrong, I, I just don’t know if my kiss is right, I, I have never kissed anyone, you are not disgusted, I will kiss like that in the future, if you don’t like it, I will change Pro-French…Hey, don’t you go, Xuanxuan? Can’t I just say it?”

The author has something to say: Last night, the raspberry wearing a top hat wrote a great long review. The beautiful lady promised to make it 9k today, so that evening, I will fight for fat and have a breakthrough!
