Chapter 173: "Brotherly Love"
Xiao Song muttered as he walked: Is this Xiao Chuan really sick or fake sick? He actually said that the eldest brother is a ghost?
After thinking about it, he still felt that this statement was not valid. However, I felt that Xiao Chuan looked at the fear and certainty in his eyes, besides, this guy would never joke about this kind of thing.
Xiao Song stood still, and he suddenly remembered that on the night when Xiao Guanxian made a big fuss about the Hou Mansion, when the two of them were sitting on the steps chatting as children, they talked about this ghost and said that Xiao Chuan also told Xiao Song that he never believed it.
Xiao Song blinked, he was also stunned.
Right now, training soldiers during the day, managing two stalls by himself, has no skills, besides, I'm afraid there is no other way, let's try it first.
Xiao Song sighed helplessly!
When he returned to his house, he kept thinking about whether he wanted to tell Duan Kun about this? Later, he shook his head and said: No, you can't talk about it! If you let Kun Shao know that this Xiao Chuan was under too much psychological pressure because of the fight with him, wouldn't it be that Kun Shao was dragged in again?
Xiao Song clenched his fists angrily and slammed the table: "These people, they have a good life, and they are all blind!"
At noon, Xiao Song secretly sent a soldier to pretend to be a Taoist priest and went to Xiao Chuan's mansion. And a bunch of spells written in advance were posted in the house.
Xiao Chuan kept following his buttocks, and when he saw that several servants were far away, he suddenly pulled him to a place where no one was and asked in a low voice, "Master, is there a ghost in our house?"
This "Taoist priest" was very calm, and replied briefly with two words: "No." ”
Xiao Chuan looked puzzled: "No, really, really?"
"Hmm. ”
"But, but, how do I think there are ghosts?" Xiao Chuan's voice was small and trembled.
The "Taoist priest" glanced down at Xiao Chuan: "There are some idle messes, I will help you solve them." Don't get cranky. These ghosts are all ghosts born of people. ”
Xiao Chuan was stunned: "People are ghosts?
"Isn't that just a nonsense? Sleep well, eat well, and you'll be fine. ”
"Oh. Xiao Chuan nodded in disbelief. After asking the servant to take a lot of silver taels for the Taoist priest and send them out of the door, Xiao Chuan lay down on the rattan chair outside the door again.
The servant stepped forward: "Second young master, the ghosts in this house have been expelled, look, you can go back to the house and rest well." What did you do to sleep here?"
Xiao Chuan raised his eyelids: "Wait, don't worry." Wait for the messy ones in this house to leave. ”
"Don't you worry?! It's almost autumn, and the weather is changeable. If you say it's windy, it's windy, and if you say it's raining, it's raining. Look at 1 Mao 2 line 3 Chinese net you are catching a cold again, and there are still injuries on your body. ”
Xiao Chuan thought for a moment: "Hmm." ”
"Besides, didn't this Taoist priest also say, don't think about it in that way. According to what the Taoist priest said, you should eat and sleep. This medicine prescribed by Dr. Liu for you, you also drink it on time, and you don't have anything to do! You just feel too much pressure in your heart. ”
"I'm under a lot of stress, who told you that?"
The servant was stunned for a moment, and replied with a smile: "No, the little one is guessing." ”
Xiao Chuan pursed his lips disdainfully: "Don't guess my thoughts, you treat you as roundworms?"
"Don't close the door!"
"Eh, yes. ”
While Xiao Chuan entered the room, the two servants hurriedly carried the rattan chair back to the other room. At this time, the person who went to Xiao Guanxian's place to tell Xin'er also returned.
"How's it going? Did you tell the eldest young master?"
A few people glanced into the room, saw that the door was open, and hurriedly went to a corner: "What did the eldest young master say?"
"The eldest young master said that he would come over today. He was nervous when he heard it. ”
"Look, I'll just say it! I still have to tell him! Anyway, it's my own brother!"
"But" The servant who came back from Xiao Guanxian kept frowning, looking preoccupied and wanting to speak.
The person next to him patted him: "What kind of expression do you have?
The servant tilted his head, glanced at Xiao Chuan, who had the door open behind him, and lowered his voice: "I just think that the eldest young master's mansion is weird." ”
"What's weird?
"Not a single one. ”
"Not a single one, what about the servants?"
"No, I didn't see the servant. ”
"Didn't you see it? Did you go to something else with the eldest young master? Besides, didn't the eldest young grandmother and the child all come back?"
"I didn't see it either. The servant who came back from Xiao Guanxian's mansion kept shaking his head.
"Oh, it's normal for the young grandmother not to see, and they're in another room!"
"The point is, the courtyard of the eldest young master, it doesn't look like there is a servant at all!
"The trees are dead?"
"Well, it's all dead, fallen leaves all over the place. The door, with a thick layer of ash, felt like no one had been in it in a long time. ”
A small servant next to him patted his arm: "Eh, this gives me goosebumps when you say it." What about ghost stories?"
A tall man looked puzzled and disbelieving: "How is it possible?" he said, pointing to the sky: "The sun is shining." How many months has it been? I don't believe it, the yard of the eldest young master is still full of fallen leaves?"
"It's really a falling leaf! Why am I telling you that nonsense? Or you can see for yourself! I, why am I so idle? It's like two worlds inside and outside the door of the house. ”
"Come on, don't discuss the eldest young master here. Maybe, people have gotten better, and the servants don't need to be used?!"
"What does it have to do with whether you use a servant or not? ”
"Come on, it's weird, it's weird, it's not weird, it has nothing to do with us. We just have to do what we have to do, and we're done!"
After a few people dispersed, after a while, Xiao Guanxian hurried over.
"Big young master!"
Xiao Guanxian looked nervous, his brows furrowed: "Quick, take me to see your young master, where is it?"
"Yes. The little servant hurriedly put down the work in his hand and led Xiao Guanxian to the house where Xiao Chuan was resting.
It's just that Xiao Chuan was sleeping at this time.
Xiao Guanxian stood at the door and turned his head: "You go and get busy with you, I'll take a look at him." ”
"That, young master. Our young master didn't sleep well for two nights. ”
"Okay, I see. I don't bother him, I'll stay next to him for a while. ”
"Good. ”
With that, Xiao Guanxian entered the house and closed the door casually. He walked gently to Xiao Chuan's side and blew at Xiao Chuan's arm hanging next to the bed.
Xiao Chuan subconsciously opened his eyes, and when he looked up, he found that it was Xiao Guanxian again! Xiao Chuan's eyes widened, and he sat up instantly: "Big, big brother?"
"Why are you so surprised to see me? Isn't it normal for the eldest brother to come to see the younger brother?"
Xiao Chuan didn't speak.
The corners of Xiao Guanxian's mouth turned up: "Or do you think that you are used to me coming to see you at night, and you are not comfortable with coming to ask for warmth during this cold day? Look at you are so nervous, I don't do anything to you." This servant told me, "You have been in bad spirits lately?" I can tell you Xiao Chuan, you are not in good spirits, and it really has nothing to do with my eldest brother. That's a matter of your mental quality. What did the eldest brother do to you? The eldest brother gave up his sleep and came to chat with you at night, is the eldest brother not good to you? Huh?"
"Good. ”
"Just know it. I heard that you didn't sleep well, so my eldest brother specially brought you some spiritual food. ”
"Food for thought?"
"They all say that this man has to live to learn all the time. So, you have to study if you have nothing to do, so that you can keep up with this ever-changing world!" As he spoke, Xiao Guanxian took out a children's book from his arms, put it on the edge of Xiao Chuan's bed, and raised his chin and pointed: "Look at it!"
Xiao Chuan looked at the children's book tremblingly, but he didn't dare to stretch out his hand.
Xiao Guanxian stood up: "You, you! It's so chilling to me." Tell me, if the eldest brother sends you some food, some medicine or something, you will be afraid of eating it in your stomach, that's okay. I'll bring you a book, what are you afraid of?"
"No, no big brother, it's not that I'm afraid, it's me, it's that I don't want to see it now. ”
"Don't want to see it? Okay, when do you want to see it, you can watch it again. Don't worry, what the big brother gives you will only be good for you. I'm just here to see you, and I'll come back to talk to you in the evening. With that, Xiao Guanxian went out with a smile.
Several servants hurriedly greeted him: "Big young master!
Xiao Guanxian waved his hand: "It's okay, maybe it's just that I haven't been sleeping well recently." ”
"Oh, young master, can you come, we, a few of us still have a little bit of a foundation in our hearts. I didn't want to trouble you, but"
"It's okay, my brother! Seeing him like this now, I don't feel good in my heart. Xiao Guanxian said, his eyes turned red.
This scene exaggerated this brotherly love to the extreme, which made the servants also sentimental.
"Second brother is like this now, you have to take care of it a little more!"
"Hey, eldest young master, what are you talking about? We take care of the second young master, and that is all due to be shared. ”
Xiao Guanxian smiled faintly and nodded.
As he was about to leave the gate, Xiao Guanxian turned around and called the servant who had gone to deliver him the letter out.
"It's a great day for you. Far away, he went to deliver a letter to me. Xiao Guanxian said, and took out a silver ingot from his sleeve: "This is for you." ”
The servant hurriedly returned: "No, no, the eldest young master, you can't ask for this small one." ”
As a result, Xiao Guanxian grabbed his hand and stuffed it into his hand: "What can't you want? You also know that I, the eldest brother, have never done my duty." This is what you specially told me today, which gave me a chance to be a big brother. ”。
"That's as it should be. ”
"I'll give it to you!" he said, clasping the servant's hand holding the silver, and patting it again, "Take it." After saying that, he turned around and got on his horse and went home.
