Chapter 215: Kite
Tie Hongyan sobbed and said, "It existed before, but not now. My mother-in-law is dead!" After saying this, she burst into tears.
Wu Xunsheng remembered that he also cried non-stop after his parents were murdered, so he did not persuade her immediately. He planned to let her cry her heart out before talking about other things.
Tie Hongyan had been locking herself in her room for the past few days, always in a daze. After having a good cry, she felt less depressed than before.
After Tie Hongyan stopped crying, she took the initiative to talk to Wu Xunsheng. She pointed at the south gate of Tiecangting and asked, "Go out from that door, it's the outside, right?"
Wu Xunsheng got a little nervous when he heard this. He knew that she ran away when he first met her. This time she asked him this question, and he thought she wanted to run away again. But if she ran away, he would be dead. "You...you don't want to run away, do you?"
"I just ask, I don't want to run away." Tie Hongyan said.
"What about you last time?" Wu Xunsheng asked with a smile.
"They bullied me last time, so I ran away."
"Force you to learn martial arts?"
"Ah."
"But you still have to learn martial arts tomorrow!"
"I will definitely study hard!" said Tie Hongyan.
"Don't you dislike learning martial arts?"
"I like it now! I like learning martial arts the most!" Wu Xunsheng felt that Tie Hongyan was very strange again after hearing this. She hated martial arts when they met that day, but she said so again today. But no matter what, Wu Xunsheng knew that her love of martial arts was good for him. The reason why the clan leader chose him was directly related to letting her practice martial arts well. He thought, if the young clan leader immediately became someone who liked martial arts and practiced martial arts well as soon as he came in, he wouldn't have to worry too much about not being able to be a good sparring partner.
Wu Xunsheng said: "I also like to learn martial arts. Starting from tomorrow, we will practice together! Learning martial arts is so great. I am happy just thinking about tomorrow!"
"What about today? Are you unhappy today?" Tie Hongyan asked.
"Of course I'm happy today because we can play all day. I want to learn martial arts and I also like to play! Let's start playing now!" As he said that, he took out all the things including thread and paper from the cloth bag Dong Su gave him.
"What to play?" Tie Hongyan finally wanted to play.
"How about we make a kite together and fly it?" Wu Xunsheng asked.
"Okay. I used to like playing with kites." Tie Hongyan said.
Wu Xunsheng was very happy to hear this. He was originally just trying to use this method to cheer Tie Hongyan up, and was not sure whether she was interested in it. Unexpectedly, Tie Hongyan liked playing with kites, and the idea he came up with happened to suit her preferences.
Tie Hongyan carefully put the little rabbit into the bag that had previously contained the thread, paper, etc. When the two were making the kite, Tie Hongyan was completely focused on the kite, and she temporarily put aside everything else in her mind, which made her feel the happiness that she had not felt in the past few days.
After a while, a simple kite was made. Although it didn't look good, it was good as long as it could fly and bring happiness to people.
The breeze was blowing, and the two stood on a path in the wild, ready to send the kite into the sky. Wu Xunsheng asked Tie Hongyan to hold the kite and said to her, "When I say 'let it fly' later, you will let the kite go, okay?"
