When eating that night, Bai Huang always felt that the atmosphere on the table was weird.
The Lord of the Sea of Clouds was sitting at the main seat, and Li De was sitting directly opposite him. For some reason, there was a smell of gunpowder between the two of them. But it seems that there is no tension between the two people, not only because both sides have smiles on their faces, but also because Lord Yunhai treats Alaya very well, just like he treats his own granddaughter .
White Phoenix was sitting on the left side of Lord Yunhai, and Alaiya was sitting a little farther on the right side. He is not very good at communicating with Lide, but occasionally he will say a few words to Alaiya, probably to praise Alaiya's superb swordsmanship, and he has protected the safety of Baihuang during the king's capital, and he is kind to Yunhai.
As for Heji, he was not qualified to sit on the table on this occasion and was in charge of guarding outside the hall.
At the dinner table, Bai Huang couldn't figure out what the Lord of the Sea of Clouds was thinking, and she was trying to read his words. But whether it was Li De or the lord of the sea of clouds, there were only inconspicuous maneuvers in the words. Bai Huang was confused, and finally couldn't help but took out the familiar method-acting like a baby.
"Father, are you going to take care of the matter of my second brother and my eldest brother? You shouldn't have the heart to see your precious daughter feel so sad about this matter, right?"
The Lord of the Sea of Clouds said with a smile:
"Don't think about tea and rice? I think you haven't stopped talking since you went to the table. Besides, it's good to worry about something once in a while, so that you don't look like you're growing up."
The lord of the sea of clouds blocked Bai Huang's coquettishness without showing any signs of dew, and Bai Huang could only shake the arm of the lord of the sea of clouds, dragging his voice:
"Father~~~~"
The lord of Yunhai no longer cared about her, and introduced two special dishes of Yunhai to Alaya with a smile.
Bai Huang pouted, obviously looking very unhappy. But she also knew very well in her heart that the lord of Yunhai was old, and he was no longer the omnipotent old father who could go to the sky to help her pick the stars. Before doing it differently, Bai Huang would have continued to make trouble, such as crossing her arms and angrily saying "I won't eat until I explain", but now she just put a mouthful of rice in disappointment, and said Tears swallowed.
Bai Huang didn't talk about the dispute between the sons, so the lord of Yunhai turned the topic back to her, kept picking up food for her, and occasionally told her about his recent situation.
Li De watched silently from the side, and gradually realized that the matter of Bai Feng and Bai Ye might have become an unspeakable secret of Yun Hai. Only by avoiding this topic can Lord Yunhai and Bai Huang enjoy family happiness like normal father and daughter.
Lord Yunhai would talk about Bai Huang's childhood while eating vegetables. At that time, Bai Huang went up to a tree to steal bird eggs, but was pecked by birds and fell from the tree and his butt was swollen. He also set up a few layers higher, and confidently said that this wave of himself was in the period of advanced development to protruding and backward, and resisted the pressure of Lord Yunhai and gave him two winks in a decent manner, but was caught by Yunhai. The lord beat his butt, Bai Feng and Bai Ye covered their ears and couldn't bear to hear his screams.
Naturally, Bai Huang was not to be outdone, and backhandedly told the heroic deeds of Lord Yunhai who was caught by her in the outer room. That time when Bai Huang went to the brothel to find a girl to play with, she fell in love with a pure and lustful beauty, but she refused to hold hands with him no matter what. Bai Huang felt that this matter was strange, and after some investigation, he found that his father had sneaked into the girl's room through the back door in the middle of the night to have an in-depth exchange with her, and the scene was very embarrassing. The upright Baihuang secretly reported this matter to all the aunts at home, and Lord Yunhai also lived a restless life for several days.
The father and daughter hurt each other until very late.
Perhaps because he realized that his father was getting old, or because he realized that his father was unwilling to intervene in the dispute between Baifeng and Baiye, Baihuang, who was in a bad mood, drank a lot of wine at the dinner table for the first time. In the end, she lay on the dining table and cried non-stop. She stood up unsteadily until late at night, and said to Lid:
"Help me back... sleep..."
Lord Yunhai winked at the maid who was waiting not far away, and the maid immediately came over to support Bai Huang, but was pushed away by Bai Huang. Bai Huang's hand rested limply on Li De's shoulder, exhaled alcohol, and said in a daze:
"Hey, I won't listen to you when I talk to you... Fu, grandma, go back to your room to rest!"
Li De glanced at the Lord of the Sea of Clouds, but there was no smile on the Lord of the Sea of Clouds.
Li De smiled at him, put Bai Huang's arms around his neck, and supported her to step out of the room. Alaiya also stood up immediately, holding the sword to protect Lid's back. Lord Yunhai watched them leave, sighed slightly, and did not get up to see them off.
When Bai Huang was still there, he devoted 100% of his energy to eating and chatting, because no father is willing to show his old and weak side in front of his children. After Baihuang got drunk and left, Lord Yunhai immediately supported his aching forehead and leaned against the back of the chair to rest.
The drunk-eyed Baihuang barely opened his eyes under Lide's constant urging. While identifying the scenery in the courtyard, he pointed in the direction to Lide in a daze:
"This way, this way... stop, it seems to be over there... let my aunt think about it, it seems to be walking this way... because when I was young, my aunt would go to that roof to watch the starry sky and the moon, it is so beautiful... Wow! Look, In the sky... yes, there are three moons! Ehehe, so many moons, one for my eldest brother, one for my second brother, and one... "
Bai Huang hiccupped, patted Lide on the shoulder lightly, and said:
"There is one more, my aunt will give it to you. Anyway, you are my aunt's younger brother, and yours is mine. I want to see the moon, so I will ask you for it... You have to take it out and watch it with me. Don't take it for yourself. Understand?"
Bai Huang stretched out his hand toward the sky, as if he wanted to hold the full moon, but he didn't even lift his hand above his head, and let it hang down limply.
She talked about the moon for a while, her two elder brothers for a while, and the Lord of the Sea of Clouds for a while.
I started crying while talking, and fell asleep when I was tired from crying.
Li De had no choice but to stop a maid from Lord Yunhai's mansion to inquire about Bai Huang's boudoir, and sent her there in person. The room was as luxurious as ever, which was in line with her status as a famous lady. If any piece of furniture in it was thrown outside, it might be exchanged for hundreds of acres of fertile land, or a luxury house in the city center that never sleeps.
Li De gently carried her to the big golden nanmu bed, covered her with the silk quilt, and then turned around to leave.
But the moment he turned around, Bai Huang's hand stretched out from under the quilt and held his wrist tightly.
It's like holding on to the last straw.
