Recalling that night at Luokoudu Military Camp, even though he was injured and bleeding, his breath was still hot and his arms were still strong. When he kissed her, his strong and domineering breath even made her unable to breathe.
Does he still need to drink deer blood?
Just when Shang Ruyi was thinking about all this with his cheeks flushed, Yu Wenye said again: "If you want me to eat, then I-"
After that, pick up the chopsticks.
"don't want!"
Shang Ruyi almost subconsciously stopped him.
But after saying that, she immediately came back to her senses. Her blocking was like a compliment, especially when she looked up, Yu Wenye's smile couldn't be hidden from the corners of his eyes. She even blushed and hurriedly He used chopsticks to put all the dishes that had been put on his plate back in front of him, and also moved the plate of small cakes further away from him.
He said softly: "You are not allowed to eat."
Yu Wenye looked at her with a smile, but he was kind-hearted and did not "fight" with her. But after a while, he smiled and whispered: "You have great confidence in me."
"..."
Shang Ruyi bit her lower lip, her face red to the root of her neck.
She's not stupid.
No matter how you talk about it tonight, it can be regarded as her... first time. Before she got married, she heard her aunt say that the first time will be painful and uncomfortable. If she can't bear it, she must advise her husband to cherish his blessings and take care of himself, and not to let him do it. mess.
Mrs. Yu also specially warned Yu Wenye that he was a strong and angry young man at first glance, so he should be more careful.
And Yu Wenye... that night at Luokou Ferry, he was seriously injured in such a way that it could make her fascinated and even confused. Now the injury has been healed, and his energy has almost recovered after so many days of rest. If he were to eat more deer blood, wouldn't that mean it would cost her her life?
Therefore, despite her shyness, she must prevent Yu Wenye from "adding fuel to the fire".
But she didn't expect that Yu Wenye, who was usually cold and stern, would actually say such rogue words to tease her.
Fortunately, at this time, the waiter came in again and brought a plate of braised phoenix tongue.
Shang Ruyi immediately took advantage of this interruption and put a piece of Hehua Bird's tongue on his plate, saying softly: "You, you eat this."
Seeing her shy look, Yu Wenye's eyes and brows were already filled with smiles, but he also knew that he could not tease her any more, for fear that the little woman's face would turn red, so he obediently picked up his chopsticks and ate. got up.
The sweet taste of the food and the sweet thoughts of the two people seemed to complement each other at this moment. Even if they didn't say anything, the occasional glances still intertwined each other's thoughts, and even the air became gentle.
And Yu Wenye's gaze slowly moved downwards when looking at her face, and gradually moved to her hands.
In fact, ever since he learned about the injury on Shang Ruyi's finger on her wedding night, he would notice from time to time that her little finger would be unusually twisted when she pinched chopsticks. She was probably afraid that others would see the abnormalities in her finger bones, so Specifically hiding the little finger in the palm of the hand.
Yu Wenye said, "When did your finger get injured?"
"...!"
Shang Ruyi's heart trembled slightly. ….
Although she had agreed before that she would tell him her secret, and perhaps all her secrets, on the last day of the January period, her heartbeat was still a little unbalanced when she actually heard him speak.
This, after all, is different from her thoughts of admiration.
And Yu Wenye seemed to understand her sensitivity. The first thing he asked about was her little finger.
It is also the most obvious of all her secrets. Does he want to use this as an entrance to enter her heart?
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi raised his head and glanced at him, then looked down at his twisted little fingertips. After being silent for a long time, he finally said softly: "When I was eight years old."
"Eight years old?"
Yu Wenye said: "Ten years ago? At that time——"
Shang Ruyi's expression became more and more gloomy, and after being silent for a while, he said softly: "My father was at that time.
Died in winter. "
Yu Wenye slowly frowned.
Before marrying Shang Ruyi, they naturally wanted to find out her family background. In fact, there was no need for them to find out. Before Shang Ruohong died, he and Yu Wenyuan were close friends. Yu Wenyuan didn't say anything about his family's affairs. No details, but generally understood.
Ten years ago, Shang Ruohong died of a serious illness. In the years before that, he had been idle at home for a long time due to physical reasons. Especially the year before his death, Chu Yang ascended the throne, and the ministers in the court changed a group of him. If it is useful, Shang Ruohong will not be reused. .
It was at that time that the once all-powerful hussar general who single-handedly contributed to the division of the Eastern and Western Turks and solved the problems of the Daye Dynasty passed away.
This matter is naturally considered a big event.
However, the bigger the event, the easier it is to cover up the joys and sorrows of some little people, even if this little person is his biological daughter.
Yu Wenye said: "Then you——"
Shang Ruyi said: "On the day my father passed away, my elder brother, together with several elders of the same clan, kicked me out of the house."
Yu Wenye immediately frowned: "They, dare?"
Shang Ruyi smiled bitterly and said, "I heard that they originally wanted their father to remarry a young lady from a famous family, but his father went against their wishes and married their mother. Therefore, people in the same clan have always been very dissatisfied with his father."
For some reason, upon hearing this, a cold light flashed in Yu Wenye's eyes.
Shang Ruyi was in a depressed mood and did not notice this. He only continued: "Moreover, they disliked the fact that my mother only gave birth to a daughter like me, and they treated her unkindly. Even when she passed away early, those people didn't I came to express my condolences. As soon as my father left, the elders of the merchants turned against me, and at that time, I had no ability to resist."
Yu Wenye suddenly asked: "Are you living on the street?"
Shang Ruyi nodded.
His face became colder and colder, even showing obvious anger.
After a while, he asked: "Where is your uncle?"
Shang Ruyi said: "He was working in the Construction Department at that time, and his whole family was in Dongdu. When the news of my father's death came, I had already been kicked out of the house before he could leave."
Yu Wenye said: "Then how did you spend those days?"
Shang Ruyi said: "At night, I went to sleep next to the Tu Tu Temple, which was deserted on the outskirts of the city. During the day, I would still go back to the merchants. Although they always poured cold water on me and let dogs bite me - but those dogs all recognized me. , and it didn’t really bite me.”….
Yu Wenye frowned: "Why do you want to go back?"
Shang Ruyi said: "Because I know that my uncle will definitely come to express my condolences to my father. Only by staying at the merchant can I see him and have the opportunity to ask him to take me in. If I just leave like this and wander around, the sky is big and the earth is big, even if my uncle wants to If you want to adopt me, it will be difficult to find me, so I will have to be a street kid. But I don’t want to."
Yu Wenye looked at her in slight shock.
He did not expect that Shang Ruyi, who was only eight years old at that time, would be so keen. Although before the marriage, Yu Wenyuan had praised the daughter of an old friend for her intelligence several times. After the marriage, he He did realize that there was something extraordinary about this little girl, but it wasn't until he heard about this past event that he truly understood what made her so special.
However, this kind of precocious wisdom is partly due to nature and partly due to those experiences.
There was a trace of love in his eyes, and when he spoke again, his voice was gentler than before, saying: "Later, your uncle came, met you, and adopted you, right?"
Shang Ruyi nodded.
"Then, what happened to your hands?"
"..."
Shang Ruyi lowered his head and glanced at his little finger, and said softly: "Although the days were difficult, there were still a few servants who were very kind to me and secretly brought me food. However, the food I got was I was coveted by the beggars on the street, so they came to rob me, and I - I was a person who refused to suffer, and I got into fights with them several times.
. "
"..."
"But, it's hard for two fists to defeat four hands. Later——"
At this point, she paused for a moment, but Yu Wenye already frowned and said in a deep voice: "Is the finger injured at that time?"
Shang Ruyi nodded.
There was another period of silence in the private room, but the silence this time was different from before. Shang Ruyi could clearly feel the anger and cold air emanating from Yu Wenye.
After a while, he suddenly said: "Do you remember those people?"
"...?"
Shang Ruyi was stunned and said subconsciously: "You, what do you want to do?"
Hearing her question, Yu Wenye was also stunned for a moment.
Yes, what is he going to do?
At that moment, he had even imagined in his mind that he was going to find those people and skin them all. But when he thought about it again, it had been more than ten years, and those were all... Whether the beggar can survive to this day is still a question. Going to seek revenge on the children for the fight ten years ago is indeed not what he, a general of the auxiliary country, should do now.
Don't even think about it.
However, there was an unquenchable anger in his heart.
Looking at Shang Ruyi's unconscious little finger again, his brows were furrowed and he was still angry. On the contrary, Shang Ruyi looked at his cold eyes and said with a smile: "It's all over."
"..."
"Sometimes it's like this. As long as the result is good, no matter how painful the process is, it won't feel too uncomfortable in retrospect."
"..."
"At least now, I feel good."
Yu Wenye looked at her for a while and said nothing. He just stretched out his hand and gently held her hand on the table.
Then, he pinched the tip of her numb little finger.
Although she knew there would be no sensation there, for some reason, Shang Ruyi felt another tingling sensation spread from her hands to her heart, and her heartbeat skipped a beat.
Yu Wenye said: "It's okay."
Shang Ruyi nodded gently.
Then she said: "So, is it my turn?".
