"Brother......

Yan Xi took Huo Jinshen's hand, and turned his head to look at Wen Ruan when he heard the words.

Wen Ruan's watery eyes looked at Huo Jinshen and wrung her fingers timidly.

Yan Xi's hand loosened, and he smiled deeply at Huo Jin: "Then I'll go downstairs first." ”

Huo Jin glanced at her, nodded "um", and said, "I'll come back to you later." ”

Yan Xi turned around with a smile, and when she turned her back, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

If Yuan Sheng is gentle and virtuous, and Wen Ruan is timid and introverted, then Wen Ruan at this time does not have a shadow of Yuan Sheng.

Wen Ruan, who had recovered his memory, did he abandon Yuan Sheng completely?

She is a recovering memory, not a dual personality.

Yan Xi doesn't know much about psychology, but she feels that Wen Ruan is consciously returning to the way she was.

And just now, she took the bank card and gave it to Wen Ruan, and Wen Ruan asked Huo Jinshen if she could take it, which was intentionally to show her closeness to Huo Jinshen, and she was an outsider except for them.

However, the restoration of Wen Nguyen's identity does not mean that the past eight years have not existed. No matter how intimate the relationship is, there will be a sense of rustiness after such a long time.

Wen Ruan's performance is even more deliberate......

Yan Xi rubbed his chin and slowly went downstairs. Sister Mei cut the fruit and took it out, looked upstairs, and then looked at Yan Xi, and her eyes flashed with a chatter.

That expression happened to be seen by Yan Xi, Yan Xi held the handrail and walked down the last two steps and smiled: "Sister Mei, what kind of expression do you have." ”

Sister Mei's fleshy hand touched her nose, glanced at the ceiling again, and whispered to Yan Xi: "Madam, Mr. brought other women home, aren't you angry?"

Sister Mei has worked as a nanny in many wealthy families, and she can be regarded as well-informed. Those rich men have more people in the family. But I haven't seen such a generous wife yet, and they all let people live in the house.

This lady looks very powerful, could it be a soft persimmon?

Yan Xi glanced at her, walked to the sofa and sat down. She took out a bag of melon seeds from the small drawer of the coffee table, poured it into the dry goods plate with a bang, beckoned to Sister Mei and said, "Sister Mei, come and chat with me." ”

Sister Mei sat down, her eyes still on her, and she couldn't see her joy or anger.

Yan Xi said: "That Miss Wen is Mr.'s cousin, not the messy things you think in your head. ”

"Cousin, ......" Sister Mei laughed, the strange lady made the soup every day, and she didn't say anything when she watched her husband pack it out.

Yan Xi took a cusp of melon seeds, chatted and asked: "Sister Mei, I see that on your resume, you will have a lot of skills, with your ability, but you can be a white-collar worker." Don't you feel at a loss as a babysitter?"

Sister Mei straightened her waist and said proudly: "White-collar workers don't have so much salary. ”

Yan Xi nodded: "That's right." However, you've been a live-in nanny for so long, aren't you getting married?"

"Hey, what's going on. Sister Mei's personality was straightforward and said, "In my hometown, my parents asked me to marry an old man fifteen years older than me, and build a house for my younger brother as a dowry. Of course I didn't want to, and I ran out. ”

"I don't have a high education, but I'm not afraid of getting dirty, and I don't mind being a nanny. The salary is high, I live in my employer's house, and I don't spend money on food and drink. Save all your salary, and when I get old, I will retire in your nursing home in your big city. ”

"Look at those little white-collar workers, they don't earn as much as me, and they love to spend money indiscriminately, but they are not as comfortable as me when they are old. ”

Yan Xi smiled: "Sister Mei, you have a lot of ideas. ”

"That's it. Sister Mei patted her chest with self-affirmation, put the peeled melon seeds on a tissue, and then pushed it towards Yan Xi.

Yan Xi quietly observed Sister Mei and ate the little bit of melon seed meat.

She asked Sister Mei to come over and chat with melon seeds, and Sister Mei did not flinch, and chatted with her naturally, but she didn't eat any melon seeds, and she was very careful about proportion.

Sister Mei peeled the melon seeds with neat hands and feet, and said while peeling: "Although I haven't read much, I can't compare to those college students, but I have learned a lot in those employers' homes." ”

"My first employer was a lawyer, and when I had just run away from my hometown, my family came after me and scolded me for having no conscience, refusing to provide for them in old age, and suing me. Then the lawyer's employer taught me to pay them alimony every month, and they couldn't do anything about me. ”

"My third employer was a pianist, and I studied a little bit as well. Later, I worked as a nanny for another family, and the child of that family learned the piano, and I knew what was wrong when I heard it, and then they asked me to take care of the child, and I didn't have to do anything else. ”

Yan Xi listened with relish, it turned out that there were so many ways to be a nanny. She said, "Then why did you leave that family like this?"

"I don't want to be a pianist, other people's children are getting better and better, and I can't keep up. I later went to a hotel owner's house, and the delicious ...... in someone's house" Sister Mei smashed her mouth, "The boss's mouth was in his mouth and he instructed me in cooking." Madam, do you think my cooking is delicious?"

Yan Xi smiled: "It's really delicious." So why do you want to come to me?"

Sister Mei said: "The people from the housekeeping company said, Mrs., you are very good at business. I just want to learn from you and see if I can open my own housekeeping training company. ”

Yan Xi gave a thumbs up: "Sister Mei, you are really thoughtful." ”

This eldest sister looks very aggressive, but in fact she is careful, cheerful, and can look at people's eyes, no wonder her employers are willing to teach her.

There was a sound of stairs upstairs, Huo Jinshen and Wen Ruan walked down together, Huo Jinshen saw Yan Xi chatting happily with a maid, and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Sister Mei quickly stood up, called "sir" respectfully, and lowered her eyelids to look at her nose.

This gentleman is not smiling, she does not dare to break the rules.

Yan Xi stood up slowly and said with a smile: "Sister Mei said that she knows a little piano. I'm thinking that in the future, if our two children learn piano, we can leave it to Sister Mei to keep an eye on. ”

As she spoke, her gaze skimmed over Wen Ruan, and she saw that her face was slightly pale.

Yan Xi sighed helplessly in his heart, Wen Ruan really had different thoughts about Huo Jinshen.

She lifted her spirits and introduced to Sister Mei with a smile: "Sister Mei, this is Miss Wen, Mr. Huo's cousin. Then, she said to Wen Ruan again, "Sister Mei here, the tonifying soup you drank in the past few days was made by Sister Mei." ”

Wen Ruan nodded timidly, thanked him politely, and Yan Xi said: "Wen Ruan, you just came to Kongshan Xinyu, and you are not familiar with many places. Let Sister Mei take you around, just breathable. ”

She bowed her head to Sister Mei and ordered, "Take Miss Biao for a walk." ”

Sister Mei sighed, and then she was stunned, and glanced at Yan Xi suspiciously, she was most familiar with the momentum of the housewife.

Sister Mei didn't have time to think about it, so she walked to Wen Ruan and said enthusiastically: "Miss Wen, this place is beautiful, and it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful villa......

Sister Mei's enthusiasm made it impossible to refuse, but Wen Ruan looked at Huo Jinshen again, until Huo Jinshen nodded: "Go ahead." ”

Seeing Wen Ruan's figure walking away with Sister Mei, Yan Xi said to Huo Jin with a smile: "Did Wen Ruan listen to you like this when he was a child?"

Huo Jinshen didn't feel anything unusual, sat down and said: "Wen Ruan lived in the Huo family when he was a child, but he never had a sense of belonging, and he always looked at people's faces. I was her only support, so it was natural to rely on my side. ”

Yan Xi sat down next to him and stuffed the melon seeds peeled by Sister Mei into his mouth one by one, a little angry that he couldn't understand her words.

She said, "But it's been eight years, don't you think her behavior doesn't match her age?"

Huo Jinshen frowned at her slightly, and Yan Xi said again: "Wen Ruan has recovered her memory, but she is still Yuan Sheng, which does not mean that she is still stuck in the Wen Ruan eight years ago." ”

As she spoke, she sighed herself: "Hey, I'm confused." ”

Yan Xi held his head and was annoyed, is a man congenitally dull in some things, especially Huo Jinshen, who has never been in love much, and has special feelings for Wen Ruan.

Huo Jinshen is also a smart person, Yan Xi said this, he naturally understood. He said: "Yan Xi, Wen Ruan has not been herself in the past eight years. She was hit hard and needed some time to recover mentally. ”

Yan Xi raised her fingers: "Stop, what I should have said has already been said, she has just recovered from a serious illness, and I don't want to be told that I have a broken mouth." However, I remind you that this behavior of hers is ...... Whatever others say, she has to wait for you to nod her head, if others see it, it is not a good thing for you or for her. ”

"She's your sister, tell her about it yourself. ”

On the one hand, Yan Xi shocked Wen Ruan without a trace, and on the other hand, he couldn't offend Huo Jinshen, and he felt tired.

Dinner was a welcome banquet made by Sister Mei, Wen Ruan's physical weakness was not healed, and she went back to her room to rest after dinner.

When Huo Jinshen got up to go to the study, Yan Xi coughed lightly, squinted at him and reminded: "Sit down immediately after dinner, it's easy to grow meat on your stomach." ”

Huo Jin smiled deeply, he walked over and held her hand: "Then go for a walk with you?"

Yan Xi raised his head slightly: "It's about the same." ”

She saw Wen Ruan, who was standing still on the steps, and greeted, "Wen Ruan, do you want to go out for a walk too?"

Wen Ruan smiled: "No, I'm a little tired, so I won't go out." She glanced at Huo Jinshen, and then said to Yan Xi, "It should be quite cold outside, if you go out, wear more clothes." ”

Yan Xi: "Okay, it's still Wen Ruan's heart." ”

She asked Sister Mei to bring her coat and handed it to Huo Jinshen: "Let's go." ”

Wen Ruan stood at the corner of the stairs and watched their heels disappear back and forth, fingers clenched. Outside, Yan Xi's hand drilled into Huo Jinshen's palm, Huo Jinshen glanced at the woman who reached his shoulder, and he said, "I've been busy all this time, and I haven't been alone with you for a long time." ”

Yan Xi glared at him: "It's good if you have a conscience." ”

Huo Jinshen stretched out his hand to rub her hair, and held her hand in the pocket of his windbreaker. The two walked out from the empty mountain and new rain, and when they arrived at the pasture in front, they could hear the cries of cattle and sheep in the air.

Yan Xi grabbed a handful of hay to feed the sheep, and seeing that the sheep's belly was very big, he bent down curiously and looked at it and said, "Is this pregnant?"

Huo Jin took a deep look: "Well, I heard about it." A veterinarian should come and check it out in the next few days. ”

Yan Xi was very curious, touched the goat's slightly hard hair, and said, "I heard that the lamb can stand and walk when it is born." You said it would be nice if people were born to walk. ”

Huo Jin looked at the woman next to him with deep eyes, and he said, "If a person is born and can walk, he will become a monster." I don't want you to give me such a demon. ”

Yan Xi's fingers paused, and he turned his head to look at him: "Do you want a child?"

Huo Jin stared at her deeply.

There is a lamp hanging on the top of the sheep shed, and tiny insects are flying around the lamp, under the light, Yan Xi's face is clean and transparent, and the light falls on her eyes, like starlight.

Huo Jinshen's hand was raised, and he touched her eyebrows, and he said, "I'm thinking, whether I want a boy or a girl." ”

"But whether it's a boy or a girl, like a mother, even if it's a girl, it's almost the same as a boy. ”

Yan Xi was just a little warm, but she was shattered by his next sentence, and she bared her teeth: "What are you talking about! Is this damaging my lack of femininity!"

Huo Jinshen successfully plucked the tigress's beard, and immediately reassured: "I mean, even if it's a girl, if you're as brave as you, no one can bully you." ”

He circled Yan Xi, shook it lightly from side to side, and looked up at the sky: "The stars are bright tonight." ”

Yan Xi's back was against her chest, and when she looked up, she could see his chin, which was a little cyan, which was his scum.

Yan Xi stretched out his hand and touched it, it was prickly, and his fingers went down, touching his Adam's apple, bulging like a walnut stuck in his throat.

The man's heart felt like a feather had grown at her touch, and a deep voice sounded in her ears: "Have you touched enough?"

Yan Xi turned around, grabbed his collar with both hands, stood on tiptoe but bit on his Adam's apple, and then ran: "That's enough......"

She ran away, but Huo Jinshen seemed to be staring at the prey, and chased after her: "You are enough, I haven't yet!"

Yan Xi's force value is strong, but his endurance is not good, and his legs are not as good as someone's long legs.

Yan Xi hugged his neck and giggled: "Huo Jinshen, hurry up!"

Along the way, Huo Jin has always hugged Yan Xi deeply, from the pasture to the empty mountain and new rain, and then to the room on the third floor. Sister Mei stood at the bottom of the stairs, glanced upstairs, and said in her heart: The wives of other employers are all high and holding shelves. How can this lady look like a goblin, she really knows how to play.

Wen Ruan's room was on the second floor, Yan Xi's laughter was very loud just now, and the stairs were clattering, and Wen Ruan also heard it. Her breath was heavy, and the books on the table were torn apart by her.

She couldn't help but think that when she was in the hospital, Huo Jinshen hesitated to send Huo Zhuping to prison because she was afraid of Yan Xi.

At that time, if she hadn't given up by herself, I was afraid that Huo Jin would have given up after thinking about it. But what if there wasn't Yan Xi? would he still care so much?

She has been so badly deceived, and after eight years of not his own life, isn't he distressed by such a big injury?

This only shows one problem, in his heart, Yan Xi is more important than her.

In the past eight years, she has become Huo Zhuping's forbidden luan, how much hatred she has in her heart, she can't wait to kill Huo Zhuping! But even if she kills him, she can't make up for the eight years she lost, and she can't make up for the so many years she and Huo Jinshen missed.

She is so looking forward to his return, taking her away and flying away, living her own life and having her own home.

But he married another woman, and it was so sweet.

Who cares about her heartache, who cares about her pain, who else?

Wen Ruan's tears wet the books, there was no one around her, and her dream home was gone. This is all Huo Zhuping, and Yan Xi harmed!

If it weren't for Yan Xi, she would still be with her brother!

Wen Ruan bit her lip, her reddened eyes staring at the reflection on the window glass......

……

For the next few days, Wen Ruan was still very quiet. She said to Huo Jinshen that she wanted to recover the past eight years.

At the age of eighteen, she was about to apply for the Academy of Fine Arts, when she picked up the brush again. She set up an easel on the lawn, and every day she painted the empty mountains and new rain in her eyes.

Yan Xi had already returned to work in Yiyantang, and as soon as he got off work, he could see Wen Ruan standing on the lawn, holding a paint board in one hand and a pen in the other, with paint on his fingers and a face like a cat.

King Kong lay meekly next to Wen Ruan, and the two cats that Yan Xi asked for from Yan Bei grew up a little, one after the other, next to King Kong, grabbing its tail and playing.

When Yan Xi looked at that scene, he scolded these little beasts in his heart for being traitors, and they were bought.

"Wen Ruan, I'm still painting, it's dark. Yan Xi walked over to Wen Ruan's drawing board and looked at it. It's almost the same picture, the sky and the mountains in the distance, the pasture fence nearby, and a few vague sheep.

Wen Ruan smiled shyly and said, "I plan to draw the empty mountains and new rain under the starry sky." ”

Her words fell, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said sweetly to the person walking in front of her: "Brother, you're back." ”

There was a rustling sound in the air, the sound of the soles of shoes brushing the tips of grass. Yan Xi didn't notice it, and only when Wen Ruan spoke up did she look up.

Huo Jin carried the briefcase deeply, and the other hand was copied in the pocket. With a gentle smile on his face, he walked slowly.

Yan Xi smiled at Huo Jin and said, "It's still your brother and sister who have a good relationship, as soon as you come back, Wen Ruan can hear your footsteps." I didn't feel it at all. ”

Huo Jin said deeply: "Wen Ruan is quiet, you are restless." ”

Yan Xi pursed his lips, Huo Jinshen looked at Wen Ruan's painting, and frowned slightly: "It seems that something is missing." ”

Wen Ruan handed him the paintbrush and said, "Brother, look at you." ”

Huo Jin glanced at her deeply: "Test me?"

Wen Ruan nodded, his eyes were shining, and the hand holding the paintbrush did not hang down. Huo Jinshen took the paintbrush from her hand, dipped it in the paint tray, and then clicked a few strokes on the canvas, and the stars appeared in the inky sky, Wen Ruan's eyes became brighter when she looked at Huo Jinshen.

Yan Xi could only take a deep breath in his heart.

Wen Ruan was showing her how tacit she had with Huo Jin.

Yan Xi put his hand against his chin and pretended to look at it for a while, and then shouted into the room, "Sister Mei, come out for a while." ”

Sister Mei's slightly chubby figure is flexible, and she will come out in a while.

"Ma'am, what's the matter?"

Yan Xi raised his chin to the painting and said, "Sister Mei, you are a person with artistic cells, let me comment?"

Sister Mei took a closer look and said, "It's very well drawn, it's this star......" She glanced at the sky, "The lights are bright here, look at the sky, the star is not so bright." ”

Yan Xi turned his head to Huo Jinshen and shrugged his shoulders, and the corners of his lips bent down and said regretfully: "Huo Jinshen, your painting has ruined the fruits of Wen Ruan's labor, so it's better not to paint."

Huo Jinshen looked depressed, and said to Yan Xi: "It seems that you are very good at painting, and you are looking for Sister Mei to appreciate a painting, which shows that you don't have any artistic cells." ”

Yan Xi said: "I just have Sister Mei, it's better than someone, I don't know it, and I'm still pretending." She turned her head to Wen Ruan and said, "Your brother is poor, don't hold him, you have to let him know that he has shortcomings." Otherwise, he will lose face outside, and we can only follow suit. ”

Originally, Wen Ruan secretly wanted to show that her tacit understanding with Huo Jinshen was still there, and she wanted to attract Huo Jinshen's attention, but it reversed in an instant and turned into a bickering between the two of them.

Yan Xi is not only bad about this, but she also eliminated Wen Ruan's future opportunity to use paintings for ambiguity.

Wen Ruan smiled reluctantly and said, "Brother, Yan Xi is right, your painting skills have not improved. ”

Huo Jin took a deep look at Wen Ruan, returned the pen to her, and said, "It's too cold, clean up and go into the house." ”

With that, he carried his bag and entered the door. Yan Xi looked at Wen Ruan and said, "Look at your hands and face, like a cat, go in and wash, and you will have dinner in a while." ”

Wen Ruan went back to the room, washed up and changed into a set of home clothes and went downstairs, Yan Xi was serving soup, and when she saw her, she beckoned: "Sister Mei made soybean stewed pig's trotters today, come and replenish collagen." ”

Wen Ruan took a chair and sat down, Yan Xi tasted a mouthful of hot soup, squinted his eyes comfortably, and then said to Wen Ruan: "You should be the same age as me, right?"

Wen Ruan glanced at Huo Jinshen and said, "I don't know very well, it should be." ”

"I don't remember anything when I arrived at the orphanage, and I don't have anything on me to prove my identity......" Her voice lowered, pulling her lips, "If it wasn't for my brother picking me up, I probably wouldn't exist." ”

Although Sister Mei is a maid, the restaurant is big, and Yan Xi asked her to sit at a table to eat. Sister Mei looked at Yan Xi, didn't Mrs. say that she was Mr.'s cousin?

Yan Xi hooked his lips slightly. On the first day of Wen Ruan's arrival in Xinyu in Kongshan, she deliberately introduced Wen Ruan as Huo Jinshen's cousin, which was not only a rhetoric to the outside world, but also an identity for her, so that she could keep a distance from Huo Jinshen.

But now, she deliberately said that she didn't want to be Huo Jinshen's cousin.

The atmosphere that was originally quite relaxed and pleasant suddenly became heavy with Wen Ruan's words.

Huo Jin frowned deeply, not liking Wen Ruan's negative emotions, and whispered: "Wen Ruan." ”

Yan Xi glanced at him and said to Wen Ruan: "What do you do if you are unhappy." If you sit here and eat, if you are healthy, you may be able to live in the same nursing home as Sister Mei when you are eighty or ninety years old. ”

Wen Ruan was stunned, looked at Yan Xi, and his fingers unconsciously clenched the chopsticks, but he quickly passed this emotion. She smiled and said, "Yan Xi, when are you free, shall we go buy clothes?"
