The baby-making system is unreliable
Chapter 157: The Blind and Idiot Imperial Teacher vs. the Calm and Generous Empress (9)
On the misty Tiaolu Mountain, a quaint two-story cottage stands alone, but there are a few more candles than before.
Inside the house, one of them was injured with some blood on the wound; the other one caught a cold, his face was as pale as paper, and he was lying on the couch with some chills.
At this time, the window was half-open, and Yun Xirou sat quietly in front of the window, staring blankly at the world outside the window shrouded in continuous rain.
The rain fell like a bead curtain, blurring the mountains and trees in the distance.
It seemed as if the only sounds left in the world were the intertwined sounds of the fine rain and her gentle breathing.
"It's been raining for two days now. It's dark in the house before daybreak. It's really lonely to listen to the rain for so long."
Yun Xirou's beautiful face looked particularly gentle under the dim candlelight, but her eyes revealed a hint of sadness and worry.
"But it's okay. Fortunately, you are here. I don't feel lonely when you are with me."
Having said that, Yun Xirou closed the window, turned around, walked into the house, took a sip of hot tea, and waited until her body was warm enough before sitting down on Wen Sheng's couch.
"Come here and warm your hands. It has been raining for a long time. Although listening to the rain is a very elegant thing, you have been staying by the window for too long. The coldness brought by the rain is too strong."
As Wen Shengxian spoke, although he could not see her current appearance with his eyes, his other senses seemed to be infinitely magnified, and he keenly captured the unique aura she exuded as she gradually approached.
He thought about this subconsciously and called her, "Yuan Ning, I think your hands and feet are getting cold. Come over here and warm your hands."
Hearing this, Yun Xirou couldn't help but burst out laughing, and said helplessly: "Pfft...Sir, why are you still the same? Are you going to start preaching again?!"
"I remember it clearly. When I was little, I hated listening to the teacher's lectures. One time, I even skipped school and went out to play boating. Who knew that I accidentally fell into the water?"
Recalling this past event, there was a hint of thought on her face. The man in front of her was only a few years older than her, but he always thought so much and liked to preach at every turn, just like a stuffy and boring old gentleman.
Unfortunately, he himself had a very low sense of humor and he couldn't help laughing before he could finish a few words.
"Of course I remember. You were still very young at that time, and your snorkeling skills were very rusty. When you were rescued, your little face turned red and you choked on water several times."
Wen Shengxian seemed to be thinking of something from the past, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth unconsciously. It turned out that he had a very low sense of humor.
Thinking about it now, she was coughing so hard that she was out of breath. It was really heartbreaking to see her like that.
But it was still very funny. He really didn't mean to laugh, he just couldn't help laughing!
People in Yongchang are good at water. Even young children have learned snorkeling since childhood, so very few people would choke on water.
"Think about you at that time, you were soaking wet, like a drowned chicken, and you looked so miserable. But you were really stubborn and insisted that you would practice snorkeling every day for three months after you came up!"
Wen Shengxian held her hand in his palm, thinking back to that time when they were still very young, and a long time had passed in the blink of an eye.
"Stop talking, you're making fun of me again. At that time, the child had grown up and needed to be well-dressed. You don't even understand that."
Yun Xirou proudly took out a hand to cover his mouth, and almost leaned on him, signaling him not to say anything more.
Just think about it, she was Princess Yongchang, and she actually fell into the water and almost drowned. It would be too embarrassing to tell others about it.
"How dare you laugh at me!? Why did you find me so late?! Isn't it because you got lost because you have a poor sense of direction?!"
Yun Xirou frowned, and there was clearly a hint of 'blame' in her tone.
However, at this moment, Wen Shengxian seemed to be frozen, standing there in a daze, not hearing what Yun Xirou said at all.
I saw her slender fingers on her lips, like a quietly blooming flower, exuding charming fragrance.
This action instantly attracted all of Wen Shengxian's attention. His eyes involuntarily focused on that hand. Even his breathing became a little rapid, and there was even a brief pause.
"..." Yun Yirou also noticed this and immediately withdrew her hand. Although she couldn't see his eyes, she could still see that the tip of his ears was slightly red. She said in annoyance, "You really weren't listening to me."
"I..." Wen Shengxian sighed helplessly, thought about what she said, and then said: "I am a road idiot, you know it's not the first day!?"
Not only she knew, but many people in Yongchang knew that he was a complete idiot when it came to finding his way.
"..." That's right, Yun Yurou was speechless. She thought about the rumors about him in the capital and felt that they were outrageous. She said awkwardly, "That's right. I heard that the Imperial Master had a lot of interesting stories when he was young."
"For example, when Master Wen returned to his hometown to visit his relatives, you followed him. On the way, you met a group of pedestrians asking for directions. You pointed in the direction of Yinzhou and said it was Linzhou. Fortunately, Master Wen was right beside you."
Otherwise... Otherwise the reputation of the Wen family will be ruined. If people say that the people of the Wen family don't know the way, wouldn't Master Wen be mad? !
"Oh! Don't mention it. At that time, my father pulled my ears and scolded me. It was so painful!" Wen Shengxian sighed. When he thought about it now, his ears still hurt.
Later, his mother found out about it and laughed at him for many years, even mentioning it in front of the clan members, as he was notorious for being bad at finding his way.
"Pfft! I really don't know how you lead troops to suppress bandits. I heard that the Imperial Master suppressed the Linzhou bandits at the age of eleven. I don't know how you lead the troops!?"
Yun Xirou couldn't help but want to tease him. She wanted to laugh when she thought of a man with poor sense of direction leading the troops. She just thought, will we really get to the wrong place if we follow him? !
"Actually... I just know how to read a map. As long as the people under my command are not directionally challenged, that's all that matters! Is Yuan Ning smiling happily?!"
Wen Shengxian felt a little embarrassed when he thought about it, but it didn’t matter as long as he could make her smile.
"Okay, stop laughing, stop laughing. So...you went to the riverside so early in the morning just because you were afraid you'd get lost and couldn't find me?!"
There was a hint of heartache and disbelief in Yun Xirou's voice, and her eyes were fixed on him.
I heard from Hanyi that he went to the riverside early in the morning because he was afraid of taking the wrong road and not being able to find her, so he caught a cold.
Han Yi nodded slightly, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: "Yes, I went to the river early in the morning, for fear that I would take the wrong road and couldn't find you."
"You know me... I easily get lost. I didn't expect that I would catch a cold." As he spoke, he couldn't help coughing a few times.
Hearing this, Yun Xirou was moved. She had never thought that Wen Shengxian would be so dedicated to finding her.
In the past, he always acted like a teacher, and the two of them were not so close, but now everything seemed to have changed.
Wen Shengxian spoke seriously in a joking tone. Seeing that she seemed to be silent, he added, "Besides, I have always had a very good sleep quality. I get up early in the morning and have nothing to do anyway, so it doesn't matter if I get up a moment earlier or later."
Yun Xirou felt a sudden pain in her nose when she heard this. She knew very well that things were definitely not as simple as Wen Shengxian said.
Who would run to the riverside so early in the morning for no reason? The one who was a minute earlier or a minute later was the one who was clearly worried and couldn't sleep all night long! !
As she thought about it, Yun Xirou's eyes gradually became moist and she couldn't help sobbing. She didn't like to cry, but she couldn't control herself.
"Yuan Ning... why are you crying?! Stop crying. You are already an adult, are you trying to make me feel bad just like you did when you were a kid!?"
Although Wen Shengxian couldn't see her, he could still feel her emotions. He nervously tried to coax her and make her stop crying.
After hearing this, Yun Xirou couldn't cry even if she wanted to. She could only hold back her tears and said, "No way! When did we become so close?! Don't try to get close to me!!"
"Of course, since the first time I taught you all those years ago?! We have such a long relationship, and you still want to deny it?!"
Wen Shengxian answered subconsciously, inadvertently speaking his true feelings, then came to his senses and pulled the quilt to hide to the side.
Yun Yirou pretended not to notice, took off her shoes and socks, sat next to him, snatched his quilt, and said, "It's too cold down there, your quilt is warmer, lend it to me."
Ignoring his surprised look at her behavior, Wen Shengxian reluctantly pulled open the quilt beside her and moved in.
"..." Yun Xirou miscalculated. She wanted to get closer to him, but she forgot that she slept in his room yesterday and there were two quilts in the room.
But this place was warmed by him, and she felt really warm under the quilt, not cold at all? ! She covered her feet with the quilt, and there was still a little bit of his smell in her nose, which made her feel a little relieved.
Yun Yirou continued nonchalantly, "Of course I can't deny it. The teacher back then was a man of light and elegance, and he was obviously only a few years older than us."
This person taught her when she was a child, understood her little temper and thoughts, and felt sorry for her and worried about her when she grew up.
She couldn't help but think of him back then. He looked so calm and composed that she really thought that this gentleman would never get angry.
At the beginning, their father found new teachers for the three siblings. Yun Xirou and her younger sister didn't care. One would listen obediently no matter who taught her, while the other was invisible no matter who taught her.
Yun Shangyi is different. He looks arrogant, wears gold-soled shoes, wears gold threads, behaves ostentatiously and weirdly, and he looks down on any gentleman.
Early in the morning of that day, he had decided to play some tricks. He sprinkled water on the seat where the gentleman was sitting. There was also a wooden basin hanging on the eaves, which was at least half full of water.
"It's not a good idea for us to do this, right?!" Little Yuanan timidly pulled the corner of her clothes, watching her elder brother making those mechanisms, and whispered.
"..."Xiao Yuanning closed the book in his hand and watched him act with narrowed eyes. He really couldn't understand what was so fun about doing this?
To show off his nobility? It was clearly a boring game. At that time, I was wondering if all men were so childish?!
Later I discovered that being childish has nothing to do with gender or age. Anyone can be childish in their comfort zone.
"It's not good, but it's not our fault, it's his." Xiao Yuanning was also helpless, but he couldn't stop it directly, otherwise he would definitely be targeted by him.
At that time, she was still wondering if the new gentleman was another old man? ! The old man might not be able to withstand Yun Shangyi's embarrassment, and she was silently worried about the new gentleman.
Unexpectedly, a young boy appeared that day, not much older than them. No one thought that day that this man was their husband! !
Thinking back to that time, they waited for a long time but the gentleman didn't come. When they became impatient, someone came in a boat on the water, with a fisherman's straw raincoat on his head.
"Your Highnesses, do you want to go boating?" Wen Shengxian stood on the boat and shouted to the three people in the room, "Why don't we go boating together and enjoy the scenery of the lake together?"
It was the first time they had seen a gentleman like this. They were all dumbfounded and leaned on the windowsill to look at him.
The water was shining with colorful light, and it appeared in front of these children just like a god descending to the mortal world. She still remembers that scene.
Yun Yirou played with his fingers and said with some relief: "Fortunately you didn't go into the house, otherwise you would have been doused with water. To be honest, did you know that he had set up a trap a long time ago!?"
"I don't know. I really just don't want to teach indoors. It's summer now and the lotus flowers in the pond are in full bloom, so I wanted to invite you to go boating on the lake." Wen Shengxian answered honestly, as if she could remember what she was like when she was a child.
"You really satisfy our fantasies about the outside world. You are simply a god-like figure." So much so that later, Yun Shangyi didn't bully him anymore, and every day he thought about how to get him to take everyone out.
"Don't you want to know what I saw that day?!" Wen Shengxian asked with a raised eyebrow, and said it without waiting for her response.
"I saw three children coming out of the house. One was angry and didn't want to look me in the eye. Another timidly dodged and subconsciously lowered his head to look at the water. Only you didn't dodge or avoid, as if you were fascinated by the water."
"How could I look at you so foolishly?! Don't be so narcissistic!" Yun Xirou refused to admit it. She frowned and reached out to tidy up his messy hair.
Wen Shengxian spoke seriously and insisted, "You have it!!"
Yun Yirou immediately denied: "I didn't!!"
Wen Shengxian persisted and continued: "Yes, yes!!"
Yun Xirou had no choice but to scold him angrily: "Childish!!"
Wen Shengxian replied: "You are childish too!!"
……
Voiceover: Take it.
Yun Xirou stared at a warm blanket somewhere. "It's so cold, I'm freezing to death. Do you have the nerve to only cover yourself with the blanket?! Give it to me!!"
Wen Shengxian reluctantly let go and said, "I...Okay then."
