Chapter 161: In my heart, you are still the old you
Qiao Yuyan was still chirping and asking him about the exam. As she asked, she slowly realized that there was no sound. When she looked over again, she saw that he had fallen asleep leaning against the car wall.
When the carriage stopped, Wen Tingyuan didn't wake up.
Thinking about it carefully, this was the first time she saw him sleeping in her memory. With his normal temperament, he would definitely not fall asleep like this. He was probably too tired.
Come to think of it, no matter who it is, they would not be able to stand being locked up in such a small room for three consecutive days.
He didn't look tired, but he was always calm.
When she was bored, Qiao Yuyan took off the power fence, put her hand on her chin and looked around, and finally her eyes fell on his face.
No matter what, this face was the most beautiful in the entire carriage.
Of course she had always known that Wen Tingyuan was good-looking, but now she discovered that the sleeping Uncle Wen had another good opinion.
After staring carefully, I discovered that there were a few green stubbles sprouting on his chin.
For some reason, Qiao Yuyan suddenly turned red and hot.
Today is obviously a rare cool cloudy day, why is it so hot and muggy? It must be because I stayed in the carriage for a long time.
Qiao Yuyan looked away and touched her cheek with the back of her hand, so that the heat on her face could subside a little.
Just when he felt uncomfortable, Wen Tingyuan finally woke up.
"I fell asleep."
As he spoke, he stood up and got off the carriage first.
Qiao Yuyan opened the car curtain and saw the hand he handed over.
In fact, there has not been much taboo between them. To be honest, he hugged her not long ago! It was like when she was a child, but now facing this hand, she suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?" Wen Tingyuan looked at Qiao Yuyan who was parked by the carriage door, with a searching look in his eyes.
Qiao Yuyan came back to her senses, finally put her hand on her, and supported his hand to get out of the carriage. When he landed on the ground, he naturally let go of her hand, and then walked in front of her.
But she could clearly hear her heart thumping in her chest.
This is Uncle Wen!
Qiao Yuyan warned herself in her heart that people still regarded her as a child, but in fact she thought too much.
However, now we should still find a time to make it clear to Uncle Wen. One day is like a day, and it is okay that no one can see it at the moment, but it is still inappropriate after all.
Even uncles and nephews should avoid it.
But when I thought about being estranged from Uncle Wen, I felt a little empty in my heart.
I was thinking about something in my mind and didn't pay attention to the movement around me. When I got to the place, I discovered that it was the inner courtyard of Mengpo Zhai.
"Huh? Did you order me to come here?"
Wen Tingyuan smiled faintly as an answer.
"You rest here for a while, I'll go wash up."
On such a hot day, after being locked up for three days and three nights, no matter how calm he seemed, the most urgent thing at the moment was to wash up and rest.
Qiao Yuyan looked at his study carefully.
Just like when I lived in the Xu family, this room here is also very large. There are several rows of bookshelves in the room, but a large area is left open for reading. There is also no desk or chair.
Qiao Yuyan knew that he usually sat on the floor and read, which seemed to be very different from other people.
She knew that Wen Tingyuan loved reading. She used to have a room full of books, but she didn't know what books he liked to read. Now that she was interested, she looked through them row by row and discovered that he had a wide range of knowledge.
Not only the Four Books and Five Classics that ordinary scholars study, but also various astronomy and geography, travel notes, and even some agricultural and mulberry collections, handicrafts...
There are so many books, and at the speed at which she reads two "Mencius" a day, it will take a monkey year and a horse month to finish them?
After browsing through it roughly, Qiao Yuyan randomly pulled out a travel journal, followed Wen Tingyuan's example, sat on the floor, and read through it at will.
As she read it, she found something interesting. The various customs and customs in the book were introduced in detail and vividly, which made her yearn for it.
This glance lasted for less than half an hour, and I didn't even notice that the person had appeared behind me.
"When did Yan'er learn to read?"
Qiao Yuyan was startled by the sudden sound and couldn't help stroking her hands, "Scared me!"
"Stop looking, the food has been served. Go get something to eat!"
Qiao Yuyan originally thought that he was very tired at this time and it was hard for her to visit him here, so she thought she might as well leave first, but Wen Tingyuan did not wait for her and went out first after saying that.
He changed into a moon-white blouse, which was wide and wide, but there was a kind of ethereal beauty about him. His hair was half-dried, and was held up casually with only a jade bamboo hairpin, casual and uninhibited.
He just said that Qiao Yuyan swallowed the words on her lips and followed him to the next door room.
Several exquisite dishes were already placed on the table, and she knew just by looking at them that they must not have been sent from restaurants outside. These were things they often ate in the past.
But it is obviously different from the cooking methods outside. There is not a single chopped green onion or a single tempeh in any of the dishes. It is obvious that they know their taste and pay attention to the preparation.
There was no one in the inner courtyard, but there was a kitchen, which surprised Qiao Yuyan.
It's still the same as before, eating without talking.
Qiao Yuyan wanted to speak several times, but when she saw how quietly he was eating, she didn't say anything.
When Cheng Feng brought two cups of tea and cleared the table, Qiao Yuyan was able to speak, "You... I've heard about everything about you."
"About the Wen family?"
He was still holding the tea. Qiao Yuyan couldn't see anything from his face, but she felt a little distressed in her heart.
"Don't worry, in my eyes, you are still the Uncle Wen you were before, no matter who you are, no matter what your status is, and no matter what you were like before."
She spoke a little eagerly, but her tone revealed a serious and firm tone after she spoke, which made people feel reassured.
Wen Tingyuan smiled faintly, "I know."
Such simple three words made Qiao Yuyan suddenly feel a soreness in her heart. After a while, it gradually softened into warmth, making her feel inexplicably at ease.
There was no sun today, but the sky was not dark. Qiao Yuyan sat opposite him, and the wind outside blew in, and she could feel the slightest chill of autumn.
Qiao Yuyan thought for a long time and spoke slowly, "There are not two good people in the Wen family. Mrs. Wen is strong and the eldest Wen family is snobbish. It's not a bad thing that Uncle Wen doesn't want to go back, but..."
She paused and then decided to speak, "But my grandfather and the old lady Wen had a quarrel in the past, and my grandmother and old lady Wen used to have frequent contacts. About your mother... my grandmother also said it in a casual conversation, Mr. Wen
Although my wife has a bad personality, she is not capable of doing such a thing."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the other person eagerly.
Based on what happened in her previous life, Mrs. Wen was most likely not the murderer of Wen Tingyuan's mother. She didn't know how much effort he had put into investigating the matter in his previous life.
But she didn't want Wen Tingyuan to still be worried about this matter, even though she knew in her heart that the other person would not change his mind just because of her words. This chapter has been completed!
