After becoming a widow, I raised my traitor brother

Chapter 321 How could he be willing to hate her?

It should be a lively and festive Lantern Festival, but at this moment, it is freezing and cold.

Xiao Fengxian went straight to Wei Zi.

The girl was lying next to the water tank, her eyes closed tightly, her life and death unknown, her body was soaked and her face was pale. Because of the cold wind entering her body, even her lips turned blue-grey. A few strands of wet hair clung to her cheeks, making her skin look even more obvious. Pale describes thinness.

Xiao Fengxian's heart was filled with needle-like pain, dense and endless.

They hadn't seen each other for just a few days, how could his sister-in-law be like this...

He simply couldn't figure out what the people in Zhenguo Palace did for food. He lost Wei Zi during the Shangyuan Festival 13 years ago, and almost lost her life during the Shangyuan Festival 13 years later.

Since you don't care about this girl so much, why do you pretend to treat her like a jewel?
He suppressed the anger in his heart, put one hand around the girl's waist, and held her hands with the other, trying to warm her with his body temperature.

But this little drop of warmth was not enough to warm Wei Zi's body again.

He looked around and saw a bundle of dry firewood piled up in the corner of the yard, so he lit a fire on the spot.

After all, no one was prying here. He took off Wei Zi's soaked skirts and coats one by one, put them on the rack to dry, then sat cross-legged by the fire, holding Wei Zi tightly in his arms.

Beautiful jade brings fragrance.

Her skin was as white as mutton-fat jade, and seemed to reflect a faint light of fire.

The night was hazy, and her long crow-green hair fell to the ground from his arms, like the finest silk. The little face hidden in the hair was cold and beautiful without makeup, and her tightly closed peach blossom eyelashes outlined Flying sideways into the shadow of her temples, she was as beautiful as Xiaoqian, a ghost in a storybook who had no trace of human beings.

But there was no charm in Xiao Fengxian's heart.

He lowered his head and touched the girl's cheek with his cheek and the tip of his nose from time to time like a small animal. His sinister fox eyes became scarlet and moist. At this moment, he just wanted his sister-in-law to wake up safely.

Skin to skin.

The strange warmth between people is better than the bonfire tonight.

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Zi's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she was about to wake up.

Xiao Fengxian hesitated for a moment, put her on the ground, and quietly ran up the wall.

Wei Zi coughed and sat up, looked around, and was stunned when he saw corpses on the ground not far away.

When he came back to his senses, he noticed that he was naked, so he quickly pulled off the dry coat and skirt and put it on in a hurry.

She unconsciously combed her black hair with her five fingers, her eyes lingering on the corpses of the gangsters. It was clear that when she was about to die, someone appeared in time to save her.

Xiao Fengxian...

Could it be Xiao Fengxian?

As if feeling something, she raised her eyes and looked at the wall.

Xiao Fengxian moved faster than her. In an instant, she jumped off the wall and hid behind a wall.

Wei Zi stared at the wall.

A rugged diseased plum blossom was planted next to the wall. On this cold night, the five-petal plum blossoms on the branches bloomed one after another. The light and shadow at night fell on the gray-white old wall, and the sparse shadows were horizontal and slanted, like the outlines of ink pens.

At this moment, there is obviously no wind, but the plum blossom branches are swaying gently.

She knew that just now, someone must be sitting on the wall watching her.

It was Xiao Fengxian.

But she said a lot of unpleasant things to him in the past, and he didn't want to see her anymore.

Wei Zi stood up staggeringly and walked slowly towards the wall.

She stretched out her hand and gently placed it on the wall.

"Yes...is that you?"

She hoarse.

Before he finished speaking, two lines of clear tears rolled down his eyes.

She didn't cry when she encountered the fire, nor did she cry when she was chased and beaten by those gangsters.

But for some reason, when I met Xiao Fengxian, I felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.

There was a faint sound of breathing behind the old wall.

Wei Zi wiped her tears: "I know it's you. At this time, you are the only one who can come to save me. At the last New Year's Eve palace banquet, you rashly hurt the Second Highness. I said many excessive things to you. It was me. I'm sorry for you. Tonight...thank you for saving me tonight, Fengxian."

She never called "second brother" again.She called Xiao Fengxian's name.

There was still the sound of breathing on the other side.

Wei Zi knew that he had not left.

She paused for a long time, lowered her head and whispered softly: "You don't want to see me or talk to me. You hate me, don't you?"

hatred?
Xiao Fengxian stood in the shadows.

He stared at the mottled wall for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky.

The soft snow fell alone, and the white mist that he breathed through his mouth quietly dissipated in the cold air. Those snowflakes were white and crystal clear in his eyes, just like the girl on the other side of the old wall had been in his heart all these years.

Unlike Xue, the girl was as important as a thousand stones in his heart.

How could he bear to hate her?

He just...

He just didn't know how to face her.

Snowflakes cannot be held in the palm of the hand, just as he desperately longs to have Wei Zi, but the girl is like a snowflake, if she is held hard in the palm of her hand, she will turn into a puddle of water and never look like her original self again.

He no longer knew what to do with her.

I don't know how long it took, but he finally spoke in a low voice: "New Year's Eve Palace Banquet, you said those 12 years in Lingzhou should be given to me. Wei Zi, if I ask you again tonight, what are those 12 years? Will you still answer that way?"

He didn't call her "sister-in-law" again.

Wei Zi closed his eyes.

The teardrops fell to the ground.

The hands covering the old wall were quietly clenched.

She choked with sobs. There were thousands of words in her heart, but she couldn't express them in her mouth.

Things have reached this point. She will be married and sent to Beigong in three months. Even if she answers this question again now, no matter what the answer is, what is the point?

There was a cold wind.

When Wei Zi was hesitant, a slender figure fell from behind.

She turned around and met Xiao Fengxian's gaze.

He said: "If you don't speak, I know the answer."

His eyes fell on a few tears hanging on her cheeks.

He approached slowly and raised his hand to wipe away her tears: "A woman's tears are the answer."

……

It was already dawn when the fire in the Dengshan Maze was finally put out.

Yu Hehuan stood guard at the street entrance, anxiously looking towards the exit, and finally saw the figures of Wei Zi and Xiao Fengxian, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

She walked forward quickly holding a lantern and subconsciously held Wei Zi's hand: "Cousin!"

Behind her were many servants and maids from the Duke's Mansion. There was a lot of noise last night. When Wei Huanjin learned that Wei Zi was in trouble, he hurried back to the mansion to bring in reinforcements. At this moment, his son was still searching for people everywhere.

Wei Zi smiled and said, "I'm fine."

Yu Hehuan glanced at Xiao Fengxian meaningfully, took the fox fur cloak from Qing Ju and put it on Wei Zi's shoulders: "Thanks to Mr. Xiao for saving me this time, Mr. Xiao is going to sit in the Duke's Mansion? "

Go sit in the Duke's mansion?
Xiao Fengxian had no doubt that Wei Ling would beat him out directly.

He said: "I have something important to do, so I won't accompany you. You should pay attention to yourselves."

The carriage of the Duke's Mansion was parked not far away.

Wei Zi followed Yu Hehuan to the car and couldn't help but look back.

Xiao Fengxian, who was still in his weak years, had a handsome face in Xuanyi Xianhou, like a piece of restrained and sharp black jade.

Even after walking far away, he still never took his eyes away from her.
