27. Clear up misunderstandings
Jiang Wan quickly had lunch, and when she saw that the medicine was almost decoction, she went back to her house to put out the porridge that had been warm there before, and then went back to Pei You's house to put the medicine in a bowl and came to Pei You's room. Pei Yulian was sitting on the edge of the bed to take care of Pei You, Jiang Wan said, "Yulian, wake up your brother, it's time to take medicine." β
Pei Yulian nodded obediently, raised her hand and gently pushed Pei You's shoulder, and called softly: "Brother, brother, wake up......"
After screaming for a while, Pei You's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were still sparkling, and he looked confused.
"Yulian ......" He saw Yulian beside the bed, smiled weakly, his voice was hoarse, his eyes turned slightly, and he saw Jiang Wan, who was taking a small stool to the side of the bed and putting the two bowls in his hand on the small stool.
"Ginger, Ginger girl!" Pei You's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Jiang Wan who suddenly appeared in his room in surprise, and then his whole face turned a little redder than before.
It seems that he has forgotten about the morning.
Jiang Wan glanced at him lightly, as if she didn't want to talk to him much, and ignored his surprise.
Yulian whispered, "Brother, it's Sister Wan that I called...... I couldn't wake you up early in the morning, so I went to call my mother, but my mother fell in a hurry, so I went to find Sister Wan...... It was Sister Wan who asked the second brother to call Dr. Qian, and she also fried the medicine and made porridge, but it was delicious, brother, get up and eat some......"
"Mother fell?" Pei You struggled to get up, his face was anxious, Pei Yulian stood aside at a loss, not knowing whether she wanted to help, and looked at Jiang Wan for help.
Jiang Wan walked up and pressed Pei You's shoulder, and when she saw him stop moving and looked up, she said lightly: "Your mother is fine with medicine now, you lie down for me, don't move." β
Pei You's face flushed, his eyes suddenly drooped, and he stammered, "Jiang, Miss Jiang...... This, this is really a hassle for you......"
He didn't expect that if he was sick, he would be able to attract Jiang Wan to help. Before, he tried every time to explain to her, but he couldn't, but when he was sick, she took the initiative to come...... obviously misunderstood that he would not be saved when he saw death, but she still came, and she was really kind......
A picture suddenly flashed in his mind, Jiang Wan's soft body was pressed under him, and the wonderful touch of clinging to each other seemed to remain in the memory of his skin, but it was too slight for him to judge whether it was real or a dream.
Seeing Pei You lying back honestly, Jiang Wan said: "Doctor Qian said, your mother is fine, but she has to rest in bed for a while, as for you...... Just take a few pills and you'll be fine. β
"Thank you, Miss Jiang, I'm really bothering you today." Pei You hurriedly said. Knowing that his mother was fine, he also relaxed a little, and now he himself is weak, so he should take care of his body first, so he can be filial piety in front of his mother's bed.
Jiang Wan looked cold, and said to Pei Yulian: "Yulian, you can feed your brother this medicine and porridge, eat porridge first, and then drink the medicine." β
"Okay, Sister Wan." Yulian nodded obediently, and saw Jiang Wan turn around and walk out.
Pei You watched Jiang Wan walk out blankly, Pei Yulian fed a spoonful of minced porridge to Pei You's mouth and said, "Brother, eat porridge first." β
Pei You retracted his gaze a little lost, opened his mouth and swallowed the porridge. For a moment, he thought she would feed him...... What a ridiculous idea! Let's not mention that she still misunderstood him, even if the misunderstanding is solved, it is not appropriate for him and her male and female unmarried to feed him medicine and food...... understands the reason, but it can't stop Pei You from continuing to feel disappointed.
Illness made his mouth light and tasteless, but when he thought that the porridge was boiled by Jiang Wan himself, he felt that it was very fragrant and delicious, and sweetly ignored the swallowing pain caused by the swelling of his throat and swallowed it all.
Seeing that the minced porridge was finished, Pei Yulian changed the medicine that was no longer hot.
Pei You asked, "Yulian, ...... morning?" Did I do it to Miss Jiang in the morning...... Out of the ordinary? β
Pei Yulian's hand shook, and when Pei You saw it, he hurriedly asked, "Yulian, tell Brother SΓΉ quickly." β
Pei Yulian bit her lower lip and hesitated for a while before she said slowly: "Brother, I went to fetch water in the morning, and there were only you and Sister Wan in the house, and when I came back, I saw that you pressed Sister Wan to the ground......"
Pei You's eyes widened suddenly, it wasn't a dream, he actually did it!
"IβDid I do it, or what did I?" Pei You's eyes were dull, and he had a bit of a loveless taste.
Pei Yulian shook her head, Pei You was about to relax, but she heard her: "I came late, I didn't see or hear the one in front." β
Pei You's strength seemed to be suddenly withdrawn, and his expression on his face was unpredictable. Now he can't remember what he did or said at that time, if he doesn't save him and add another disciple, Miss Jiang doesn't know what to think of him!
Pei You mechanically drank the medicine, and Pei Yulian took out the two bowls.
Jiang Wan was still sitting and chatting with Jiang Gu in the courtyard of Pei You's house, and they were talking about what to do when they had money in the future, how big a house to buy, how many people to hire, and to eat a bowl and pour a bowl for dinner in the future.
Seeing Pei Yulian come out, Jiang Wan smiled and asked, "Your brother has eaten all the porridge and medicine?" Didn't you think the medicine was bitter? She smelled bitter about the medicine.
Pei Yulian shook her head, leaned over and whispered, "Sister Wan, my brother just asked about the morning...... That's it...... After I told him, he didn't speak, as if he hadn't even tasted what the medicine tasted like......"
Jiang Wan narrowed her eyes and was about to speak, when Jiang Gu on the side was dissatisfied: "What are you whispering!" β
Jiang Wan turned her head and smiled: "If the boy shouldn't listen to it, you want to listen?" β
Jiang Gu didn't know what he remembered, his face turned a little red, and he turned his head and hummed, "I didn't listen!" β
Jiang Wan got up, touched Pei Yulian's head and said to her, "Yulian, you go and rest for a while, you've been busy all morning, are you tired?" β
"Sister Wan, I'm not tired." Pei Yulian said, she unconsciously raised her head and rubbed Jiang Wan's palm, full of attachment. Now although her brother is also very good to her, her brother and sister are different after all, and she also likes Sister Wan's gentleness.
"You can't hide the tiredness on your face, and you say that if you are not tired, children should rest more to grow taller." Jiang Wan smiled and drove Pei Yulian back to her room to rest.
Pei Yulian hesitated: "That brother and mother ......"
"And me, I'll call you before I leave." Jiang Wan said.
Pei Yulian was relieved and went back to her house.
Jiang Wan went to Xu Chunying's house again, glanced at Xu Hui who was waiting, and Xu Hui whispered, "My aunt is asleep." β
"Then don't look here, you're tired after a day, go find Yulian and sleep together." Jiang Wan said.
Xu Hui had a good time with Pei Yulian, but she never had the opportunity to go to Pei Yulian's house to play, so as soon as she heard Jiang Wan say, she nodded with bright eyes and hurriedly walked out.
Jiang Wan carefully closed the door.
She looked at Jiang Gu, who was bored in the courtyard, and said to him: "Xiao Er, if you have nothing to do, go home first, memorize what I taught you before, and I will test you later." β
Jiang Gu's face immediately fell, but he didn't say anything, turned around and left.
Jiang Wan stretched her waist and looked at Pei You's room.
Well, at this moment, everyone is separated by her selfishness, and it is time for her and Pei You to spend time alone. She has an account with him that needs to be settled slowly, and she can only take advantage of this time when her father and mother have not come back, if they all come back, with her mother's temperament, she will definitely come over to take care of this family in person, and she will also worry about Pei You's mother and not let her come.
Therefore, how could she let go of such a rare and good opportunity?
Jiang Wan pulled down the corners of her hooked mouth, put on an expressionless face, and pushed open the door of Pei You's room.
Pei You was still leaning on the bed, his eyes were empty, and he didn't know what he was thinking, Jiang Wan's action of entering the room woke him up, he looked over suddenly, saw that it was her, swallowed his saliva unconsciously, and quickly turned his gaze away.
Jiang Wan didn't speak after coming in, and slowly walked to his bedside.
Pei You's body tensed, his eyes wandered, and he didn't know where to look.
Walking to his bedside, Jiang Wan bent down and took the stool on the side, turned around and left, without even looking at him.
Pei You, who was originally ashamed to see Jiang Wan, was in a hurry, and he couldn't take care of it, so he hurriedly said: "Miss Jiang, please, please stay, I, I have something to say to you!" β
Jiang Wan didn't turn around, turned her back to him and said lightly: "It's not appropriate for a lonely man and a widow to live in the same room, if someone else knows, you should say that I seduced you." β
Pei You's face changed, and when he saw Jiang Wan with his hand on the door and was about to go out, he hurriedly pleaded: "Miss Jiang, I'll just say a few words to you, really just a few words." With that, he stared at her nervously.
Jiang Wan stood for a while, and waited for the smile on the corner of her mouth to be suppressed before turning around to look at her, and she didn't come closer, but said lightly: "Say it." β
Jiang Wan gave Pei You a chance, but he couldn't say it anymore: "Miss Jiang, I ......"
"If it's okay, I should go." Jiang Wan said.
Pei You saw that she was about to leave again, so he blurted out in a hurry: "Morning...... I, I'm unconscious, if you offend, please Haihan! β
"What did you offend me?" Jiang Wan said.
Pei You peeked at her, and when he saw that she didn't seem to be very happy with her tense face, he simply let it go: "Yulian has sued me, I will ...... I'll take care of it! β
Jiang Wan raised her eyes to look at him: "Who wants you to be responsible?" β
Pei You was stunned for a moment, remembering that she still misunderstood him, she disdained him, how could she hold him responsible?
He clasped his hands, gritted his teeth and said, "Miss Jiang, on the night of the Lantern Festival, I didn't stand idly by, I went to look for you, but I ...... Didn't find it. As he spoke, his face was full of shame, and he lowered his head and did not dare to look at her.
After a long time, she didn't hear Jiang Wan's response, Pei You's heart sank a little, she didn't believe his words, or even if she learned that he went, she didn't want to forgive him?
"But ......" Jiang Wan slowly approached, and as she approached, Pei You's gaze slowly raised, and finally when she walked to the bedside, he also raised his head to look at her.
She bent down slightly, stared at his helpless eyes, and saw him swallow his saliva nervously, she was amused in her heart, and the corners of her mouth also hooked a smile, and said, "When you grabbed me and pushed me to the ground in the morning to explain to me, you still called me Wanwan." β
Pei You was stunned, there was too much information in her words, and he didn't react for a while. She said he had explained to her in the morning? He, when he was not lightly conscious, actually called her Wanwan? He...... What else did he do then?
Jiang Wan saw that he didn't speak, and said with a smile: "Do you know where you touched me at that time?" β
Touched it...... Where......
Pei You's eyes widened, his gaze moved down slightly from her face, and he bounced back immediately as if he had been stabbed when he landed on the plump position, so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do.
"I ...... I'll take care of it! Pei You only spit out these few words.
Jiang Wan straightened up and snorted, "Who wants you to be responsible?" β
"But, but I...... Thin your ......," Pei You said hesitantly.
"You haven't touched anywhere." Jiang Wan smiled slyly, that smile was indescribably cute and cute.
Pei You looked at her blankly, and it took a long time to realize that she had tricked him. But he didn't feel any displeasure, but his heart was about to jump out of his chest with joy. Sheβshe forgave him, didn't she? Otherwise, how could she talk to herself like that again? Ever since she had misunderstood him, she didn't even want to look at him with a straight eye.
Pei You blushed and said, "Although I ...... I didn't touch ...... However, I, I push...... Ahem, it's a fact that you're trivial, and I'm responsible for you. β
Jiang Wan smiled, with a hint of mockery in her smile: "How are you going to be responsible for me, marry me?" Will your mother say yes? You're not afraid of Kefu's gossip? β
Pei You didn't seem to have thought about these questions and was speechless.
Jiang Wan said: "It is the most irresponsible to make promises that cannot be fulfilled. I don't need you to be responsible for today's affairs, but don't think of this as if I was born debauched, and I don't want you to marry me because you simply want to be responsible. β
Humans, she thought, are extremely greedy creatures. In the past, she only thought that she could hook up with Pei You, and if she married him, she could live a good life in the future. But now, that's not enough for her. She hoped that he would marry her because he liked her, and that he would not be afraid of Kefu's rumors and dare to fight against his mother. What she wants now is love. Isn't it too extravagant to talk about love in this era? She didn't know, but she always wanted to give it a try, otherwise, she would rather be an old girl in the eyes of a few people and live her own free life.
Jiang Wan's words were bold and novel to Pei You, and he looked at her blankly, as if he couldn't come back to his senses. He realized so clearly once again that she was different from most of the women in this world, and that some of the things she said sounded unacceptable to the world, and if others listened to them, the rumors about her would be even more unbearable. But he knew how precious her words and thoughts were, and others might not be able to understand them, but he thought she had a character that was admirable.
Seeing that Pei You didn't answer immediately, Jiang Wan didn't plan to force him to say anything, and said: "There is one more thing, on the night of the Lantern Festival, you said that you thought that I and Xu Tucai made an appointment to meet, do you still think so now?" β
Pei You hurriedly shook his head and said ashamedly: "It's mine, it's not!" In the past, I believed in rumors so much that I thought of them first...... I won't think like that again. He paused, lowered his gaze, and said, "I didn't finish my words that night, and that shameful thought really only appeared for a moment......"
Jiang Wan smiled: "Okay, for the sake of you having no intention of shirking and having the courage to admit your mistakes, I will forgive you." β
"Really?" Pei You said in surprise.
Jiang Wan nodded and chuckled: "I'm not a person who doesn't know right from wrong, so this matter will be revealed." β
Her words were like a gust of wind, blowing away all the clouds that Pei You had been shrouding in his heart for days, and his whole person seemed to be a lot more relaxed, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked: "Thank you, Miss Jiang!" β
Jiang Wan said: "I think Wanwan is better." β
Pei You's face turned red, and he swallowed unconsciously, his eyes wandering around, and his head was buzzing. Wanwan...... She, did she mean to let him call her Wanwan?
Jiang Wan saw that he was too ashamed to look at himself, and couldn't help but want to laugh, but there was a hint of gloom in his words: "If you are not happy, forget it." My father and mother went to the county seat to estimate that they were about to return, so I went home first. Mr. Pei, you can rest too. β
She turned around and left, he didn't change his words and told her to be gentle, she didn't care, take your time.
After only a few steps, Jiang Wan heard Pei You's voice behind her: "Wanwan." β
Jiang Wan's footsteps paused slightly, and then as if she hadn't heard, she continued to walk forward calmly.
This time, Pei You's voice was a little louder: "Wanwan." β
Jiang Wan turned around at this time, with a smile on her face, and responded crisply: "Hey." β
Pei You was stunned, and then said with some embarrassment: "My words are...... Help. β
"Help ......" Jiang Wan read it in a low voice, looked up at him with a smile, "When there is no one in private, I call you to help, you call me Wanwan, okay?" β
Facing the dexterous and moving eyes, Pei You didn't say a word, and only replied in a low voice: "Good ......"
Jiang Wan laughed happily, and thousands of stars seemed to fall on her beautiful eyes, shining brightly, and people couldn't help but fall into it.
When Pei You finally came back to his senses, he found that Jiang Wan had already left, and he didn't know how long he had been stunned. He slowly slid down his body, covered himself with a quilt, and as soon as his eyes closed, he was smiling like a beautiful flower, and his heart seemed to hide honey, so sweet that he couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
There are still many things that have not yet been sorted out, but today she told him that she had forgiven him, and let him forget those troubles, and steal a moment of joy.
Jiang Wan went to see Pei Yulian and Xu Hui, the two little girls were snuggled and lying on the bed, already asleep, she didn't wake them up, she went back to her house and got a sewing basket and sat under the plane tree of Pei You's house, trying to learn to be a female worker, so that she could pass the time and pay attention to Pei You and his mother's condition at any time.
After Jiang Wan used a clumsy female worker to embroider a purse with different stitches and tightness, she saw her father and aunt Yingzi coming back with Yingzi from a distance. She quickly packed up all her things and put them on the stool and ran towards a few people.
Xu Fenggu said strangely: "Wanwan, what are you doing at the door of Mr. Pei's house?" β
Jiang Wan said: "Mother, you don't know, not long after you left in the morning, Yulian came to me and said that her brother was sick and her mother fell!" β
Xu Fenggu was shocked and worried: "What, such a thing happened!" So what happened to them? β
As she spoke, she quickened her pace.
Liu Caiyun frowned and said, "This is good, why did so many things happen?" β
Liu Caiyun's speaker was unintentional, and Jiang Wan's listener was intentional. She suddenly thought that Pei You didn't give her a definite answer to the rumors about Kefu, most of the people in this era believe it, right? Would he think that his illness, his mother's injury, was all because he was too close to her? Although, in a sense, his illness and his mother fell and injured herself in a hurry because of his illness, it was indeed because of her-Doctor Qian didn't say it, he was overthinking.
Thinking that Pei You's illness solved the misunderstanding between the two and shortened the distance between them, it may also become a timer. bomb, Jiang Wan was depressed, and couldn't help sighing.
Xu Fenggu said: "Wanwan, are you worried about Yulian? β
Xu Fenggu knew that Jiang Wan had always liked Yulian very much, and she was afraid that she was worried that something would happen to the old man next door, and the suffering was small.
Jiang Wan nodded: "Yes, mother." Yulian is still young, and I want her to take care of the two injured and sick patients by herself, which is too difficult for her. β
Xu Fenggu said with a smile: "Don't worry about this, let's be close, let's take more hands in the next few days, just help as much as possible." β
Jiang Wan said distressedly: "But don't we still have to do business and sell pastries?" By the way, mother, how is business today? Is it selling well or not, and how much is left? β
Xu Fenggu smiled: "You, when it comes to silver, it is a momentum!" β
Liu Caiyun couldn't help but smile and said: "Wanwan, let me tell you, today's Jiang's wild vegetable fresh meat cake is selling well, all of them are sold out, many of them can't be bought, and I ask if we can go tomorrow!" β
"Really?" Jiang Wan's eyes lit up.
"Then can there be a fake?" Xu Fenggu took out a bag, which was full of copper coins.
Jiang Wan looked at it roughly and said strangely: "Hey, why doesn't it seem to be the right number?" β
According to the amount of pastries brought today, the copper coins that were finally brought back should be six or seven hundred wen, but at the moment there are less than four hundred wen in the bag.
"You're really sharp-eyed." Xu Fenggu praised, and then patted the back basket that Jiang Funian was carrying, "No, because of the good sales, we will buy more flour and pork back today, make more tomorrow, and go again the day after tomorrow." β
Jiang Wan lifted Jiang Funian's back basket and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Great, it seems that our family is really going to get rich!" β
"Money junkies!" Xu Fenggu nodded Jiang Wan's nose.
Jiang Wan said: "Who doesn't love money, a penny is hard to beat a hero!" Dad, Aunt Yingzi, Yingzi, do you think I'm right? β
Jiang Funian just smiled, and Liu Caiyun smiled: "Wanwan is right!" If you have money, you will be able to live a prosperous life! β
Xu Ying touched her head and nodded with a smile.
Jiang Wan looked at Xu Fenggu proudly: "Mother, you see that Dad, they all said that I was right!" β
"Yes, yes, my daughter is right!" Xu Fenggu said angrily.
While speaking, the group had already walked to the door of Pei You's house. Jiang Wan glanced at her father and mother, and couldn't help but think about it, anyway, she just had to avoid the limelight and couldn't go to the county seat, and it was best not to stop making a living, then she could persuade her father and mother to go to the county seat to sell pastries every other day, and take care of the work of staying at home to take care of Pei You's family, and get along with Pei You more, isn't it just the best of both worlds.
