Chapter 708: The "illusion" of happiness

I froze and looked at her excited and expectant smile. Behind her, Pei Yuanxiu slowly raised his head and smiled at me gently.
At this time, it was already the most beautiful time in Jiangnan.
Ying Fei Yan dances, the flowers are red and green, and the fragrance of grass and green leaves is permeated in the air. With the unique and gentle atmosphere of Jiangnan, he rushes forward, making people feel at ease.
I smiled slightly, and patted her fluttering little face: "Li Li is so good."
She grinned and pierced my arms again.
Seeing this scene, the tenderness in Pei Yuanxiu's eyes almost turned into water. When Lie Er got tired and crooked in my arms, he patted her shoulder carefully and said, "Okay, your mother is tired, this Should we go back by ourselves? "
Until this time, Lier was reluctant and rubbed his cheek around my neck for a while, then slowly let go of his hand, and Pei Yuanxiu fished her like a cat. Then carefully dropped to the ground, the girl looked up and hugged my leg again, and said, "I'm going to sleep with my mother tonight."
"Okay, you."
Pei Yuanxiu smiled and said, reached out and stroked the top of her head, then looked up at me: "Are you okay?"
Since detoxification, my body has been getting better and better, especially now that I recognize Lier, it is more refreshing when people are happy, these little things are nothing to me. Even, I think I can run, jump, and tell everyone in the world how happy I am now!
Of course, it's impossible for me to do this, just smiling and saying, "I'm fine."
"Then let me clean up, and in the future—" he said, raising his head to look into my eyes: "I'll live here with you."
I raised my head to meet those gentle eyes.
From the beginning, I have felt that way. I do n’t know if it was deliberately created by him, or maybe a man and a woman, with a child, will naturally give people the illusion, especially Lier holding me in one hand and holding him in one hand, In such an atmosphere, trying to deceive yourself is just a friendship of confidants, and it cannot be deceived.
After thinking about it, after all, I decided to make things clear and said, "My son, I--"
"I'll go out and get ready. You and Lier, there should be a lot to say."
He interrupted me, smiled and patted Lier's face again, then turned and walked out.
Looking at his back, I was a little hesitant for a while, but he had already walked out quickly, and I heard he was instructing the attendant to pick up the things from Miss Li first and then come in tightly. Later, it seemed that someone was going in and out to talk about something. gone.
I stood in place, for a long while, and sighed long.
.
This time, I did feel the vitality of Lier.
Before I was still lying in a tiger village, I saw that this girl was still in the bandit, but now I know that Shen Xiaokun is very polite to say that she is "very wild".
She was so crazy that she jumped up and down the room like a monkey, just like a cornice. Fortunately, the room was empty and big enough for her to toss inside and out, and circled inside and out, holding a tea cup and asking me if I wanted to drink water, and then climbed to the bed and stood next to the bed with a small mouth to kiss That's a lot of trouble.
When she finally calmed down, she was sweating, and climbed up on the stool in the middle of the room to sit on her back. She looked at me with her two lower legs, and looked around, saying, "I like it here. No wonder all the parents We weren't allowed to come in, but it turned out to be my mother who stayed with me. "
I went to see the room where she lived before, and it was very beautifully arranged. Just a few boxes of various gadgets piled up, but she said that she liked the empty and undecorated room.
I thought about it, squatting down and looking into her eyes with a smile: "Does Lili really like it here?"
"Um." She nodded strongly.
"Then, if there is a simpler room than here, the quilt is not so soft, the tables and chairs are not made of mahogany, and there is no gadgets for you, would you like it?"
She froze and blinked, "Why not?"
"Because a lot of people live in houses like that, they have nothing."
"But Lier has always been there, and Adi gave it to Lier."
Looking at those dumb, clear eyes, I hesitated, and finally said nothing, just smiled, reached out and touched the top of her head, and went to the bed to clean up. The child followed me, and was quiet for a while, then suddenly reached out and held my corner.
I looked back at her: "Huh?"
"Mother," she looked at me, seeming a little confused, and said seriously: "As long as you are with mother, any house is fine."
"..."
Just feeling that my chest was hot, I crouched down and looked at her: "Really?"
"Well. Everything is fine with my mother."
In fact, I know that she may not understand what she said and what it means, but I know that this is the child's most straightforward mood. There is no cover up, no need to hesitate. For her, the most important thing is the most important thing. .
I smiled and hugged her tightly.
.
After a while the attendants helped us clean up and prepared hot water to wash us off the dust. Lier was like a little devil who couldn't stop, and he tossed in the bath. The water splashed everywhere. I coaxed her to stop for a long time, wiped her clean, and changed into a comfortable Ben Yi, holding her back to the house.
I just pushed in and saw the table in the middle of the room. Some soup soup had been set up. A maid smiled and said, "The son said that Miss Li would be hungry for a day, and the wife would be hungry. Get some more soup. "
Lier cheered and ran away immediately.
I looked at the delicate dishes on the table and the delicate side dishes, raised my head and said to the maid, "Thank you, boy."
The maid hurriedly laughed and said, "Ma'am, what is this?"
"I'm here as a guest, and you're always ashamed of trouble."
The maid waited a moment, didn't know what to say, but nodded and retreated. I smiled, walked over and simply ate something with Lier, and soon after hearing the drums outside, took her to sleep.
The inner courtyard tonight is exceptionally quiet.
I know it was Pei Yuanxiu's order. Try not to let others disturb me and Lier. Even the maids who are serving are outside. The rustle of the wind blowing through the bamboo leaves makes the night quieter.
On such a quiet night, my daughter and I pressed tightly together. She had been in trouble for a day. At this time, she finally quieted down, like a well-behaved cat nest in my arms, and her little mouth was hot. Picked up in my ear and said very lightly, "Mother, Lier has always wanted to talk to mother."
"You said, mother is listening."
"Mother looks better than I thought."
"is it?"
"Well, I often listen to my father say what my mother looks like, and then I secretly paint a portrait of my mother. I paint a lot of it. But I don't look as good as my mother."
I smiled slightly: "Is the mother good-looking, does it matter?"
"Hmm--" She pursed her lips for a moment, then said, "Aunt Zitong often says that my mother looks good no matter how aunt Ruo Shi looks good, but I think," she tightened my neck again, lowered Channel: "Mother looks better than Aunt Ruoshi."
My heart moved slightly.
I already knew that Han Zitong was hostile to me. It ’s not surprising that she said this in front of Lier. I just wanted to come. Lieer and Han Ruosi lived together for so many years. In Huzhai, she even dreamed of Han Ruoshi; she and I have clearly separated for so many years. It is reasonable to say that no matter how much they miss, they will be rusty, but now there is no sense of alienation between our mother and daughter.
I know, Pei Yuanxiu has been doing a lot, so that Lier keep such a familiar relationship with me.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help sighing.
Lier immediately noticed something and looked up at me: "Mother."
"Ok?"
"Are you still worried? Worried that you will be caught back by the bad guys?"
"..."
"Don't worry, Li will protect you, and Dad will protect you."
"... I know. Lier is the best."
I patted her face with a smile, and then softly said, "Lier, are you tired today? Would you like to sleep earlier? Don't stay too late."
This girl blinked at me with star-like eyes and seemed to be very awake. She grabbed my clothes and tore: "Mother."
"what happened?"
"Why are you locked up by the bad guys?"
I froze for a moment.
"Why don't the bad guys let me see you?"
"..."
"Does the bad guy hate me?"
"..."
I ca n’t speak, Lili must not know that her
bad guy
is actually her father, and the thing between me and her father is definitely not clear in a few words, and it is impossible to talk to Such a small girl can speak clearly.
I was silent for a while, and said softly, "Lier, actually, the mother is not locked up by the bad guys."
"what?"
"My mother has many things. You are still young and don't understand."
"..."
"When you grow up, you will understand."
"What—" She stunned suddenly: "Why is my mother the same as Dad, every time I ask Dad why you are locked up by a bad guy, Dad answers me the same way."
I raised my eyebrows—I did not expect that even Pei Yuanxiu would tell her so.
I smiled because it was too late. I was a bit sleepy and my smile seemed reluctant. "Because, you are really too young now ..."
As I said, I reached out and patted her on the back, and said, "Get out of bed, go to sleep."
With that said, I also had some eyelids fighting myself. When I recalled that when I was weak, I used to sleep hard all night and opened my eyes to dawn. Now that I've found my child, she's by my side, but sleeps so fast. Maybe there are really a lot of things that can be put down, and my heart is not so heavy.
However, just as I was about to fall asleep, Lier suddenly raised his head again and said to me, "Mother, who is my father?"
