Chapter 816 Catching a Cold
Chapter 816 ·Calm down
Bai Xiuzhi looked at the fire intently, and his ears were filled with the sound of wind and rain outside the window.
I don’t know how long it took, but a crackling sound came from the fire, and a spark burst out. Bai Xiuzhi added some firewood and drank an extra bowl of ginger candy water to drive away the cold.
After Shang Junzhuo returned to the inner room, he disappeared and didn't know if he had fallen asleep.
Bai Xiuzhi was warmed by the fire, his eyelids became heavier and he became drowsy.
"Are you asleep?" Suddenly, Shang Junzhuo's inquiry sounded deliberately lowered.
Bai Xiuzhi immediately became energetic and quickly replied, "No, where are you."
Isn’t this a stupid thing? If she falls asleep, how can she speak?
"I can't sleep either." Shang Junzhuo held back his smile and said lightly, "Are you getting better? Are you still cold?"
"It's not cold anymore. I just added some firewood to the stove." Bai Xiuzhi said softly, "I don't know when the rain will fall. If this continues, some places will be affected by disaster."
Shang Junzhuo said, "The rain this year is particularly heavy. I don't know who hit the Dragon Prince, which made him angry."
The two of them were talking nonsense, and they both felt sleepless.
Shang Junzhuo asked Bai Xiuzhi's sister, "Your sister is named Rongxuan, right?"
When talking about his family, Bai Xiuzhi's voice became gentler, "Yes, they all have the word "cao" and it was my uncle. People in the Tang family all have this word. The eldest sister of my uncle's family is called Xueping and the younger sister is called Xueru
.”
He was obviously a descendant of the Bai family, but he named it according to the generations of the Tang family. Shang Junzhuo thought of the complicated situation of the Bai family and couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Rongxuan..." Shang Junzhuo repeated the name, "Your uncle must have great expectations for her, hoping that she is both soft and tough."
Bai Xiuzhi said, "I don't understand this, I just heard from my grandmother mention that when Rongxuan was born, everything revived, and daylily grew very lush. Daylily can not only be used for medicine but also dyed, although it is very common in Jiangnan.
But it was very popular, so my uncle decided to give her such a name, perhaps because he hoped that she would be loved by others."
Shang Junzhuo said, "What kind of person is your sister?"
This stopped Bai Xiuzhi. He thought for a long time before he said quietly, "Rongxuan has been very sensible since she was a child. When she was a child, she was like a glutinous rice ball, white and soft and cute. She is very close to me,
I remember when she couldn't speak, she followed me happily. Sometimes she didn't cry when she fell down, and got up and continued to chase her, which made me worry so much. She was very understanding.
It's just that I don't talk much. My grandmother and aunt like her very much, which makes my uncle's youngest sister always jealous. My sister is calm and has a straightforward attitude to everything, and has a maturity that is not consistent with her age. My uncle's youngest one is
Sister Ru is different. She went to the room to remove tiles, which was more naughty than boys. It gave my uncle and aunt a headache, but she couldn't do anything to her. Now she is a little older, and I don't know if she has made any progress."
Shang Junzhuo said, "It seems that your life at your uncle's house was still very interesting when you were young."
Bai Xiuzhi recalled the past and said with a smile, "That's not it! My uncle is a little serious, and everyone dare not joke in front of him. Even if it is a relaxed and pleasant day like the New Year, how far is it to hide.
How far? I felt afraid of him at that time, but now I can understand his expectations and importance to us. My aunt is very similar to you. Everything you do is very prosperous and very cheerful, as if she has never seen it in her.
Worrying. As for my grandmother... she is the person I respect the most, she is fair and friendly. When my grandfather passed away, a bunch of messes were left at home. At that time, my uncle was still young and was not enough to support the family business.
It all depends on my grandmother’s hard work alone. Even now, when I encounter something I can’t figure out, my uncle still has to discuss it with my grandmother.”
Shang Junzhuo noticed that he did not mention his mother.
Bai Xiuzhi knew it very well. He hesitated for a long time and finally said, "My mother is weak and has no opinion on her in the event of trouble, but she is very kind-hearted and can't stand others suffering. When she sees you, she will definitely like you very much.
your."
Shang Junzhuo smiled slightly, "Do you look like your mother or your father?"
"Like more like my mother." Bai Xiuzhi said slowly, "At least, others say this. After hearing it too much, they feel that something makes sense. Besides, my father passed away early, and I can no longer remember his appearance.
My mother said that my sister is somewhat similar to my father, but I couldn't see anything. I think Rongxuan is very similar to my mother."
Shang Junzhuo said, "Then your mother must be a great beauty?"
Bai Xiuzhi was slightly stunned, "Why do you say that?"
Shang Junzhuo smiled and said, "Didn't you say you look very similar to her?"
Bai Xiuzhi suddenly realized, "So do you think I am very handsome too?"
Shang Junzhuo spat, "I'm so shameless. How can I praise myself with such shamelessness? Besides, I don't know what you look like? Isn't that enough girls who love you enough to explain everything?"
Bai Xiuzhidao, "I look just a skin bag. When I get older, my appearance will naturally change. What's more, my body and hair are not something we can choose, so what's the difference between beauty and ugliness?
What is important is each other's intentions. Only when two hearts are connected and you can always go far away, that's better."
Shang Junzhuo said, "How can it be the same? Being with beautiful people is pleasing to the eye, and you are happy to do whatever you do, not to mention that it will affect future generations. Therefore, when you get married, everyone will choose the other person's appearance."
Bai Xiuzhi couldn't help but smile and said, "Then will you be happy when facing me?"
Of course...
Shang Junzhuo almost blurted out, but fortunately she reacted quickly and stopped talking quickly and said deliberately, "What's there to be happy about? No matter how beautiful the things you see, you will get tired of seeing. Besides, I'm not the ones around you.
Female classmates have to be jealous for some trivial matters.”
Bai Xiuzhi pretended to be attentive and sighed, "I said, why would you say I was an appetizing side dish? It turned out that I was tired of seeing it!"
Shang Junzhuo laughed, "You are so petty, you still remember this joke. Okay, okay, I won't dare to say that you are an appetizer in the future. Are you the head of the Manhan Festival?
The two of them were having fun, and time passed quickly.
Shang Junzhuo was finally exhausted and fell asleep leaning on the pillow. Seeing that she was silent, Bai Xiuzhi added a piece of firewood to the stove and slowly closed his eyes.
However, Bai Xiuzhi looked up to him. He was awakened by the cold in the middle of the night. He thought the stove was extinguished, but he didn't expect that the stove was burning vigorously, but he kept chilling and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
It must be a cold catching.
He didn't dare to make a sound, wrapped the quilt tighter, and drank the ginger candy water in the pot in one go, but the chill on his body could not fade away.
He closed his eyes drowsy again, feeling a split headache.
He heard Shang Junzhuo's voice in a daze. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Shang Junzhuo standing in front of him with a concern, "Xiaozhi, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Xiuzhi smiled slightly, wanting to reassure her, but her throat was dry and astringent, and she couldn't say a word.
Shang Junzhuo touched his forehead and said angrily, "You have to pretend that it's okay. You have already burned it like this. Come with me and lie down in the inner room. If you continue like this, you will have to get a serious illness."
It was raining outside, and the stove was lit in the house, and the lonely man and widow lived in the same room. If nothing happened, it seemed that they would be sorry for the environment. [Bai Xiuzhi sharpened his knife and said: Author, you can do it!]
