gentle fairy tale

In the evening, there was the sound of a car stopping outside the gate.

Yu Mian was counting the oranges in the refrigerator, when she heard the doorbell, she went to open the door, and Pei Songxi also walked over.

It was the person who delivered her things. She came back in a hurry and left behind her schoolbag and clothes.

The person who came was the young man with pigtails. He introduced himself with a smile on his face: "Hi, my name is Zhou Yao. Mr. Yu asked me to bring these over. He is not in good health. He said he will come to visit after a while." Miss Yu."

Pei Songxi nodded to him, took the schoolbag, and said in a calm voice, "Thank you."

Her expression was cold and guarded, Zhou Yao sensed it, and smiled unabated: "You're welcome."

After seeing him off, Pei Songxi asked Yu Mian: "Is this the person you said insisted on getting you into the car?"

Yu Mian nodded: "He seems to listen to my aunt and my uncle at the same time, like a fool on the wall. I don't think he is trustworthy. But my grandfather trusts him very much."

Pei Songxi was silent for a moment, and then remembered the question she forgot to ask before: "Did your family agree to your return this time?"

Yu Mian sat on the sofa, lowered her head to check the clothes and books in her schoolbag: "Of course, otherwise I won't be able to leave. After the operation, my grandfather saw that I was not happy, so he asked someone to send me away. At that time Uncle disagrees, but I still have to go to school after all, so let me go."

Pei Songxi sat down next to her, Yu Mian tilted her head, her long hair fell down, and the tail of her hair brushed gently on the back of her hand, itching.

She smiled, and curled her soft hair with her fingertips. It turned out that the long hair was already so long.

"Come back by car?"

"High-speed rail. I didn't want them to take it, so I said I was motion sick and wanted to take the high-speed rail."

"I'm going to school tomorrow, and I haven't gone to school for many days, will my study progress be dropped?"

"No, ten days is very short, and there is not much to talk about."

"So it's only been ten days..."

It turned out that it was only ten days... But she couldn't sleep for several nights, watching the sky outside the window light up little by little, and felt that time was so slow and long for the first time.

"Don't worry," Yu Mian raised her head after checking that there was nothing missing, and smiled at her: "I... ah... my hair is being pulled, it hurts so much."

Pei Songxi froze for a moment, then let go of her fingers in a panic: "Sorry, I...pressed your hair."

Yu Mian rubbed her head, then lay down suddenly, lying on her lap and acting like a baby: "You hurt me, how can you make it up to me?"

Pei Songxi's ears were still burning from the previous little action, and she followed her words and asked, "Well... what compensation do you want?"

Yu Mian raised her head and smiled: "I'll think about it later."

"Okay, think about it."

Yu Mian lay on her lap and refused to get up. She was rarely so self-willed and presumptuous, but this time when she left home, she couldn't see her or make phone calls. She missed her very much.Now that she can lean on her, she doesn't want to move anymore.

Pei Songxi gently stroked the top of her hair, and said in a gentle voice: "I'll call your teacher later to ask about your recent study progress."

Yu Mian suddenly felt a little sleepy, and she yawned: "Well...it's okay, are you so worried about me?"

"...It's really a little worrying. Have these things happened recently, and has your mood been affected?"

"One point. It was a bit messy at the beginning, but I figured it out quickly. Anyway, just trust you, you can't lie to me, and you won't treat me badly."

Pei Songxi paused: "But, I didn't tell you before. You...don't blame me?"

So long ago, she took Mianmian to that southern city, but she never told her that she was about to find her family.

"No," Yu Mian hugged her palm, rubbing her cheek lightly against her palm: "You are the best, the best in the whole world."

There is a warm and soft touch in the palm, which is the youthful vitality exclusive to young girls. Pei Songxi lowered his head and smiled: "I may not be as good as you said."

"I said you are you... Hey, don't get entangled in this issue. I told you, don't take it lightly. They seem to be talking about medicine, and they talked about several warehouses, saying... say, what... ..."

As she spoke, her eyelids became heavy and almost closed, and her voice became very soft, as if she was still trying to remember the details of the eavesdropping.But when sleepiness flooded in like a tide, the sentences were broken into words when they reached my mouth.

Until a warm fingertip landed on her slightly fluttering pink lips, tapping like a dragonfly.The man's voice was as gentle as water, delicate and meaningful: "Good night. Go to sleep, be good."

So she seemed to be bewitched, she held the man's palm tightly, and thought before she fell asleep completely... She likes this ritual good night.

The next day, Yu Mian almost overslept.

It was Pei Songxi who sent her to school, and almost ran a red light on the way, and there were 3 minutes left for class when she arrived.Yu Mian jumped out of the car, hurriedly waved goodbye to her, and then ran to school with her schoolbag on her back.

Pei Songxi stared at her back, the corners of his lips curved silently.

Seems like everything is back on track, which is great.

Yu Mian was right, even though she took ten days less classes than others, she was still at the top of the list when she took the exam at the end of the month.It's just that she herself was not satisfied with her grades, and she was very unhappy when she came back, so she locked herself in the room and studied the questions for several days.

Pei Songxi received calls from Yu Anqing several times, and the other party asked her about Yu Mian's recent study and life. Her words were gentle but caring but not aggressive.She sensed that she was not malicious, and would also tell her about Yu Mian's recent situation.

The spring is short, and it is May in a blink of an eye, and it is almost summer.

On the first day of the May Day holiday, Pei Songxi woke up very early, and after talking with Yu Anqing on the phone, he went to wake Yu Mian up: "Mianmian, your grandpa will be here soon."

Yu Mian studied too late last night, rolled on the bed several times before getting up, looked at the time, and immediately woke up, she went to open the door for her: "Why is it so late, I will be fine soon!"

Pei Songxi originally wanted to book a box in a restaurant or teahouse, but was rejected, and the other party said that he would just come and sit at home.This request made her feel very stressed. After going upstairs and downstairs twice, after making sure that the house was clean and tidy, she went to the yard to cut some flowers and put them in the vase on the coffee table in the living room.

She had just finished her work, and Yu Mian had just washed up and went downstairs, so she rushed over and hugged her arm: "Why are you a little nervous?"

Pei Songxi froze for a moment: "...It's okay."

Yu Mian smiled: "I'm going to cook some porridge, let's have breakfast first."

"But they came halfway through the meal?"

"Then ask them if they have eaten. If not, why don't you eat some together?"

Her thoughts were simple and pure, Pei Songxi touched the top of her hair: "Okay, let's cook."

Millet porridge cooks very quickly, and it will be ready in more than half an hour.

When Yu Mian went to fill the second bowl, she realized that she had only eaten less than half of the bowl: "Why do you only eat such a small amount?"

Pei Songxi shook his head, just about to say something, when he heard the sound of a car braking outside the door, he stood up immediately: "Give me the bowl, take it away."

Yu Mian secretly smiled, and said that she was not nervous, but she was obviously very nervous.

really weird.

As soon as they opened the door, they saw Yu Anqing helping an old man with gray hair get out of the car from a distance, and they looked this way.

Pei Songxi walked over with Yu Mian, nodded to Yu Anqing, then bent down slightly, and talked to the old gentleman: "Excuse me, is this Mr. Yu?"

Yu Wenqing's hair was grizzled, her spirit was hale and hearty, a pair of dry but vicissitude-stricken eyes swept across her body, and then she smiled loudly: "Yes, how are you, Xiao Pei."

Pei Songxi had never been called that before, so she nodded a little uncomfortable: "Please come in."

Yu Mian greeted her grandfather and aunt with a smile, and said affectionately: "Grandpa, do you feel tired when you come by car? It's not long since the operation, so you don't have to rush here."

Yu Wenqing patted her palm lightly: "Who told you that you are a little heartless, you don't go home to see grandpa, so grandpa has to come to see you."

Yu Mian blushed: "I... I want to go to class!"

Yu Wenqing shook his head and smiled, with a clear expression: "Okay, grandpa didn't blame you."

Pei Songxi poured tea for them first, the originally empty and tidy living room made her feel very cramped.

She sat next to Yu Mian, listening to her talk with her family, she was a little lost in thought.Mian Mian is a warm and lively girl, she is really liked by the elders, whether it is Mr. Yu or Yu Anqing, they are always smiling.

Her family is also better than she imagined. Aside from the bad impression left by her last impromptu meeting, her family is gentle, clean, personable and humorous.

When the greetings for the first meeting were finished, Yu Wenqing coughed a few times, and Yu Mian asked him what was wrong with concern.The old man smiled slightly: "I seem to have a cough. My medicine is in the car. Go and get it for me."

Yu Mian nodded, took a few steps outside, turned around with some uneasiness, hesitated for a while before going out.

When she left, the old man asked Pei Songxi, "Little Pei, do you have anything to do today?"

Pei Songxi smiled quietly: "I'm not busy, but I haven't had time to ask you yet. I want to invite a chef to cook at noon, but I don't know your taste yet."

Yu Wenqing shook his head: "There is no need to hire a cook, we will leave later, her grandma is at home and is not in good health, I will go back early, and don't worry about her being alone at home."

The old man's words are full of warm affection for his wife, and his eyes are shining with love: "Let Xiao Mian stay by your side for a while. We are all worried that she has to come back alone this time. It can be seen that she is very dependent on you."

This little granddaughter... He observed her quietly in those few days, when she was talking to her family, she was smiling very hard, but when she was alone, she always looked lonely, even when she fell asleep at night, talking in her sleep Calling someone's name.

Pei Songxi was stunned for a moment, then raised his head to look at him, with thousands of thoughts passing by like clouds.

But she is a person who is emotionally restrained. In the end, she only said softly, "Thank you."

Some unsettling but unspeakable emotions that were pressed down in my heart were quietly blown away by the wind.

When June comes, the weather starts to get hotter every day.

The day before the college entrance examination, they sat on the grape trellis to enjoy the cool.

The evening breeze is quiet, the grape vines are blown swayingly by the wind, and there is a clean and gentle floral fragrance in the air.

Yu Mian asked Pei Songxi the same question for the [-]st time: "Aunt Pei, what did you say to my grandpa when he came that day?"

What did he say before he agreed to let her stay and didn't ask her to go home.

Pei Songxi's answer is always the same: "I didn't say anything. He said it himself, and I just said thank you."

Yu Mian frowned in disbelief: "You lied to me."

Pei Songxi handed her the cut mango: "When did I lie to you?"

Yu Mian snorted twice, and was easily bought by the sweet fruit: "Okay, I trust you for the time being."

"I was thinking, go home after the college entrance examination, and then where shall we go to play, can you accompany me?"

"Okay. But have you thought about how long you're going to be home?"

"No. In fact, I don't really want to go back. My grandparents and aunts are very good, but I don't like my uncle. He is always smiling, but you don't know... He seems to have a mask on his face, which looks weird. frightening."

"Ok, I know."

Pei Songxi recalled the several phone calls he had made with Yu's family before.She gradually realized that perhaps not only she knew about it, but even Mr. Yu knew about it.It's just that she still didn't know his attitude, so she didn't take action against Yu Anzhou for a long time.After all, it is Yu Mian's family, so she has some scruples after all.

"Brother Zhiyuan called me today and told me not to be nervous about the exam tomorrow. He also asked me if I didn't regret going abroad sooner."

"What about you, do you regret it?"

"Of course not. Don't even try to drive me away, I don't want to go yet."

Pei Songxi hummed softly, and suddenly remembered that a few months ago, before Yu Mian's family came, she went to Wen Huaiyu and asked her to help arrange for Yu Mian to go abroad... But then, everything happened too fast , which now seems unnecessary.

"Aunt Pei? Pei Xixi? Did you hear what I said?"

"...Well, I heard that. I know."

Yu Mian ate half a mango and wanted to eat more, but she stopped her: "Don't eat too much, I have an exam tomorrow morning, go back and rest."

"The exam is the exam, and I'm not nervous. Are you nervous?"

"A little bit, this exam is very important," Pei Songxi nodded, "After you finish the exam, summer will pass and autumn will come, and you will go to a new city, a brand new school, where you will meet many people, When you see the wider world, you will know that there are many different beauties in this world, and..."

"I know," Yu Mian interrupted her with a smile, "but I will go home."

Pei Songxi pursed her lower lip, and there was more relief in her smile that she hadn't noticed: "Okay, go back and rest."

The next day, the midsummer sun was scorching and dazzling, Pei Songxi turned off his work and waited for Yu Mian outside the attached high school for two days.

Yu Mian laughs that she is too nervous, but at the same time feels happy for her care and concern.

After finishing the last English subject, she stood in front of her with a proud and bright smile: "I did very well in the exam."

Pei Songxi touched the top of her hair, hugged her, and went home through the crowd: "How good is it to do well in the exam?"

"That's right, you can go to any school in China if you want."

"I'm so confident that I haven't got my grades yet. Is my tail going up?"

Yu Mian hugged her arm, very dissatisfied: "No way! I'm serious, and I haven't said such things to others, you still don't praise me."

The cicadas are singing in the distance, and even the evening breeze is pleasant.

Pei Songxi smiled: "Okay, praise you."

The memory of this summer is sunny and bright.

On the day of waiting for the results to come out, Yu Mian was more or less nervous, so Pei Songxi took her to all the museums and art galleries in the city, and then visited the surrounding cities. Blink in the past.

On the day when the results came out, Yu Mian held the mouse, but did not press the OK button, hesitating for a long time.Finally, a number she was satisfied with appeared on the page, and she smiled: "685, I'm not proud, it's 5 points higher than my estimated score!"

She lay down on the bed, and even though her grades were unexpectedly good, she rolled happily on the bed several times: "I'm going to college, I'm growing up, and I'm going to be a very good architect." division!"

Pei Songxi looked at her with a smile, and joked softly: "When you grow up, you can still meet many excellent and lovely people. Will there be many people who will pursue you?"

Yu Mian pulled down the pillow, revealing a pair of bright and embarrassing eyes: "I've already met the cutest person, so don't go to see others!"

Pei Songxi froze for a moment, thinking of her deskmate and the young teacher in the studio, not sure who she was talking about... But, it doesn't matter.Young people are unstable, and maybe they will change in the future.

Yu Mian sat up from the bed: "I did so well in the exam, I want a reward."

Pei Songxi bent slightly, and his tone was also cheerful: "Well, what reward do you want, tell me?

Yu Mian stared at her bright red lips and couldn't move her eyes, her cheeks were hot: "I...I want you to teach me how to swim!"

Pei Songxi smiled and nodded: "Okay."

Yu Mian has been a little afraid of water since she was a child, and she wanted to learn to swim in the past, but in the end she failed again and again.The reason why she made up her mind this time is because Yu's family is in a seaside city, and children who grow up by the sea can swim, so she wants to learn...and she wants Auntie Pei to teach her.

The next day, Pei Songxi took her to buy swimsuits.

When she was in the store, she chose a size for Yu Mian, and wanted to take it off for her to try, but was stopped by the clerk: "This one is a bit small, try this one."

Pei Songxi froze for a moment, her pretty eyebrows frowned slightly: "She doesn't need such a big one."

The clerk shook his head helplessly: "Ma'am, you trust my judgment, she really needs it."

"……yes?"

Pei Songxi looked at the girl standing in the distance with some hesitation, as if it was true... really need such a big one...

Yu Mian chose a suitable swimming cap and came over, seeing that the tips of her ears were a little red, she was a little curious: "What's the matter, are you a little hot?"

Pei Songxi shook her head, curled her fingertips slightly, and handed her the swimsuit: "How about this?"

Yu Mian took it over, blushing: "Well, good."

...It's really a bit big.

Hey, she is so 'fat'.

Pei Songxi took her to a high-end private swimming pool. The environment was good and there were few people.

Yu Mian asked her to teach, but she felt that she was not a professional swimming coach after all, so she hired a coach to guide the basic movements.

The basic movements of swimming are not difficult, the difficulty is to overcome the fear of water.When the coach finished demonstrating the basic movements and wanted to go into the water to teach her, Yu Mian refused: "Aunt Pei, you agreed to teach me."

Pei Songxi smiled helplessly, and walked over from the bank: "Do you really want me to teach?"

"Correct!"

"Okay, let's get into the water."

Yu Mian was on the shore, her white and tender toes lightly tapped on the water surface, a little hesitant, the fear of water is innate, it seems to be hidden in her genes.

Pei Songxi laughed at her timidity, jumped into the water from the bank, and opened her hands to her: "Come down, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Yu Mian pursed her lips and smiled, then suddenly relaxed, and imitated her movement and jumped into the water... As a result, she choked up a few times: "Ahem...ahem, you lied to me."

Pei Songxi's tone was also rarely cheerful: "I didn't lie to you, you asked me to teach you."

"...Okay, so what should I learn first?"

"Practice breathing first, and then try to float quietly in the water for a period of time to feel the power of the water."

The coach also said these knowledge points once, it’s okay to practice breathing, and it didn’t take long for Yu Mian to learn it.

But when she was in the middle of the water and Pei Songxi gradually let go of her hand, she began to panic, stepping on the water, and wanted to call her name, and accidentally drank several sips of water.

Pei Songxi hurried to get her, grabbed her palm with one hand, supported her thigh with the other, and called her name: "Mianmian, Mianmian, don't be afraid, I'm here, I'm fine!"

But Yu Mian was very nervous, as soon as she felt her hand, she entangled her whole body.People who are naturally afraid of water are always extraordinarily flustered, she hugged her neck tightly, panting lightly in her ear, her voice was soft, and there was a bit of crying: "I was scared to death... I thought I was going to drowned."

"nonsense."

Pei Songxi patted her on the back lightly, and belatedly realized...the swimsuit was soaked, and they hugged each other tightly, so close that she could already feel the natural slender curves of women, Plump and plump like a peach...

There was a stream of water flowing gently between them.

Yu Mian hugged her, probably out of fear, she tightened her arms from time to time, the water seemed to touch a little human body temperature, and gently surged between them.

Pei Songxi leaned back a little uncomfortably, with a hoarse voice: "Okay, let's stop here for today, let's go home first."

Yu Mian lay on her shoulders, and it took a while to recover: "...um, good."

When she got home, Pei Songxi went back to her room and put on a smoky blue thin suspender nightdress, stood in front of the mirror for a while, then picked up a tulle shawl and put it on.

Downstairs, Yu Mian was lying on the sofa and calling Xu Xiaoyan: "You don't know, I was really scared to death. The whole body was in the water, and I couldn't even step on the bottom of the pool. I felt like I was going to die in a second. Later, Pei Auntie came to pick me up, the more she held me, the more nervous I felt, I felt like I must have kicked her..."

Pei Songxi went downstairs, when she heard footsteps, she raised her head and looked up, her cheeks were a little hot: "Okay, stop talking, it's too embarrassing, I'll chat with you later."

She threw her mobile phone aside and looked at Pei Songxi: "Okay, I welcome your ridicule."

Pei Songxi brought her a glass of honey water: "I didn't say I was going to laugh at you, why are you nervous?"

Yu Mian sighed softly: "But I feel so ashamed."

Pei Songxi smiled and nodded on her forehead: "It's okay, only I know."

Yu Mian looked at her fingertips: "Your hair is not dry yet, it's a little dripping."

"Well, I just took another shower and took a shower by the way."

Yu Mian groaned, and wanted to say something, but her eyes froze.

Two drops of water dripped down her slightly curly hair, and landed on her tulle-like shawl, soaking a small piece, outlining a very thin suspender... faintly visible delicate and beautiful clavicle.

Her cheeks were hot, and she kept her tone as calm as possible: "Have you changed into your pajamas? It looks good. Can I take a look?"

Pei Songxi was stunned for a moment, and the words of refusal came to his lips, but he stopped again: "...Okay."

She took off the shawl a little uncomfortably, and said calmly, "I ordered it online not long ago,"

Yu Mian was startled by the sudden scene in front of her eyes.The snow-white and delicate skin seems to be glowing under the light, and the thin shoulder straps fall on the thin and clean shoulders. It is obviously a cool smoggy blue, but it is warmed by the warm orange light. .

But in just a short moment, Pei Songxi pulled up his collar and said in a flat tone, "Okay, if you like it, I'll buy you two tomorrow. There are colors that are very suitable for young girls."

She lightly brushed her half-wet long hair, and the flushed Xue Nen's ears were exposed for a few seconds, and then quickly hid in her long hair again: "It's getting late, go to rest. Good night."

Yu Mian was stunned, bit her lower lip lightly before regaining her senses: "Mmm...Okay, good night."

Pei Songxi didn't look at her expression, went upstairs first, and then reached out to touch her hot earlobe after returning to the room.

Maybe it was because Mianmian had left before, but now she seems to be back by her side again.

She pampered her day by day.

Today seems to be...too indulgent.
