Extra Story 3 When no one is whispering in the middle of the night
The wind and snow outside the house make the interior look more peaceful and warm.
This was the first night Sima Lantai had been with Su Haoyi after returning to secular life.
The child was already asleep in the small bed in the inner room. Sima Lantai was worried that she would wake up at night and was afraid of darkness, so she left a bright corner lamp on the table. The wick was very dark and could be lit all night.
Su Haoyi watched Sima Lantai carefully untied her daughter's hair and covered her with a quilt, then kissed her on the face before putting down the bed tent and getting up.
Since the father and daughter met each other, she could hardly get involved in the matter of her daughter.
Whether it is washing your face, combing your hair and wearing clothes, or reading and practicing calligraphy to resolve doubts, Su Shiyun only wants his father.
Sima Lantai is born with patience, let alone his own daughter.
"You didn't eat too much supper, are you hungry now?" Sima Lantai asked after taking care of his daughter Gu's wife and Su Haoyi's hand.
"I have eaten too much lunch. If I still eat dinner like what I eat every day, I won't want to sleep and have a peaceful life." Su smiled and said in a low voice: "I am so adult, I always know that I'm hungry and full."
When she said this, Sima Lantai felt a little sad. In the past five years, Su Haoyi and his daughter depended on each other. Although they had food and clothing, they would definitely have difficult times.
I was not by my side and couldn't share the slightest amount of responsibility.
"Ah, it's so sleepy." Su Haoyi yawned: "Ji Xing, this guy, caught me and said nothing."
"It's cold, soak your feet before going to bed." Sima Lantai had already burned hot water and mixed some medicinal herbs that relaxed muscles and made Su Haoyi soak his feet before going to bed.
The two of them were talking under the lamp, explaining everything they had not been able to explain in detail before.
"How did Yun'er get rid of all the poison?" Sima Lantai asked while taking off Su Haoyi's shoes and socks.
"Actually, no matter how you think Youlu and I couldn't completely remove the poison in her body. After all, the child was too young and she couldn't bear the power of many medicines." Su Haoyi remembered that she was really sweating: "Once you get hurt, it's not worth the cost, so you have to consider every medicine for a long time. Later, she decided to focus on acupuncture and supplement it with a few mild-natured medicines."
"Is this the solution?" Sima Lantai rubbed Su Haoyi's feet with moderate force. Her soles of her feet became slightly cold, and the air conditioner had to be dispersed as soon as possible.
"Another no," Su shook his head kindly: "Don't you think that some parts of this child are not much the same as ordinary people?"
"She is just a little too smart and cute. Does that count?" Sima Lantai said.
Su Haoyi couldn't help laughing, and covered her stomach and said, "My God, you are really a real father and daughter---it's what you think."
"Isn't it?" Sima Lantai was not joking. He said the truth.
"What about this?" Su asked him with kindness tilted his head.
"No more." Sima Lantai shook his head, and saw Su Haoyi's playful expression, unable to help but lean over and indulge in a moment.
"Don't you think this child is particularly unhappy with laughter?" Su reminded him kindly.
"I was like this when I was a child, probably like me." Sima Lantai has been introverted and calm since childhood. Su Shiyun looks like him and has the same temperament.
"It's true that you are like." Su Liangyi couldn't deny this: "But other children will definitely laugh when they are itchy, right?"
"You mean her..." Sima Lantai probably understood what Su Haoyi was going to say.
Su nodded kindly: "The way I came up with is to seal up the remaining poisons that cannot be completely removed."
"Seal?" Sima Lantai couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, we will use acupuncture to seal the remaining poisons in several unimportant acupoints on her body, such as the armpits and waist concaves. So this child has no itchy flesh, and she will not laugh no matter how she sucks her itch." Su explained kindly: "What do you think of this method?"
"It's very rare." Sima Lantai said: "This is really not a way that ordinary people can think of."
"Just think you are praising me," Su leaned his face against Sima Lantai's shoulder with a kind smile, and looked at his bare head and said, "Thinking about it now, there are some things that you really can't say randomly."
"What's wrong?" Sima Lantai sniffed her hair fragrance and felt at ease. It was like a boat that had been wandering for a long time finally landing, and there was no need to travel far again.
"I joked with people and said that you were a monk's life, but I didn't expect that you would actually become a monk after all." Su Haoyi couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the past.
"That's because I thought you were no longer in this world, and I just felt that this world was a sea of suffering and no longer had any joy, so I became a monk. Now that we meet again, I will naturally be with you. Isn't this already returning to secular life?" Sima Lantai reached out and brought Su Haoyi into his arms and said.
"Speaking of this, why did the good Lantai Clinic get burned?" Su Haoyi still felt extremely regretful when she thought of it: "I brought my daughter back this time. I originally just wanted to pay tribute to my mother and the others, but I didn't expect that such a big thing happened on the Lantern Festival."
"The clinic was burned by Princess Yushan," Sima Lantai said with a chilling voice unconsciously: "She wants to destroy all my memories of you."
Any place where Su Haoyi often stays, whether it is Chuyao Pavilion or Lantai Hospital, was burned down by the princess. She hated Su Haoyi, even if she died.
"She can't let you go, right?" Su sighed kindly: "That's why you took the path of becoming a monk. You must know that if you didn't, she would never let go. Some people are like this, and they won't get it themselves, and they will never let others get it."
"There is only all she can do, but unless I die, I will never stop thinking of you." What Princess Yushan can destroy is a tangible thing. Even if she turned the entire capital into a sea of fire, she still couldn't drive Su Haoyi out of Sima Lantai's heart.
"For so many years, have you missed me very much every day?" Su kindly held Sima Lantai's face with heartache, looked at his eyes and said, "Wouldn't that be extremely tormented every day and night?"
"What can you think of the suffering you suffer?" Sima Lantai really didn't feel that he suffered. He just felt sorry for Su Haoyi: "Do you think of me often?"
"How can I not think about it? I miss you when I detoxify. If you know that I have found my grandmother's book, I will be very relieved. When the child is moving in his stomach, I miss you, thinking that if you are by my side, I will stick my ears to my belly to listen. It hurts so much during childbirth, and I also think of you in my heart. If you are there, my pain will definitely be lighter. The child is born and grows up day by day. There are many places that are similar to you. Whenever I look at her, I will think of you involuntarily..." Su Haoyi said, and tears flowed out without realizing it.
To be honest, when I experienced these things, I didn’t feel so sad, but now I feel very aggrieved and I can’t help but cry.
Every word she said made Sima Lantai feel heartbroken. She wiped her tears while accompanying her to cry.
In the end, Su Haoyi reluctantly stopped crying, and smiled at Sima Lantai with red eyes: "The water for washing feet is cold, and he also said he wants to go to bed earlier."
"Dry your feet dry, go to bed quickly." Sima Lantai was afraid that Su Haoyi would catch a cold.
"I'm not that delicate." Su said kindly, and obediently got into the bed: "It's such a cold day, do you still have to take a shower?"
"You get used to it, you go to bed first, I'll come later." Sima Lantai tucked the corner of the quilt to Su Haoyi.
Su Haoyi buried his head in the pillow and the fragrance of medicine on it was unique to Sima Lantai.
Su Haoyi has been dealing with medicinal herbs many years, but the taste is different from that of Sima Lantai.
Su Haoyi closed her eyes, and the familiar smell brought her back to the carefree and shallow and quiet years before.
