"Send the letter and this ring to the fourth master's mansion next door. The starling folded the letter carefully, and handed it to the butler along with the ring that I had put in the food box and sent back to the fourth sister-in-law.

I stared at him in disbelief, I said, didn't the starling brother hear? I will give out this money, as long as I rescue the fourth sister-in-law first. But the starling didn't pay attention to it, his eyes always fell on the butler who was standing beside him with his head bowed, the smile that was often hanging at that time quietly disappeared, his voice was more than a little lower than before, and he continued to explain, "Remember, hand it over to the fourth master with your own hands." ”

I felt completely ignored, and for the first time I felt unable to adapt to this home-like house, and the fire in my heart was almost about to ignite itself.

Seeing the butler walking out the door, I rushed up and snatched the letter, along with the ring.

"Yinyu. The starling stood still and didn't move, but finally looked at me, and I couldn't tell what the strangeness in my eyes was, so I could only stand by the door and clutch the letter.

The starling's voice was even stronger and firmer than before, but the words he said made me disagree, "I said, send it to the fourth brother, if you want to send it for the housekeeper, you can also send it." Remember, hand it over to the fourth brother in person. ”

"Why do you have to send it over? Isn't this a thief who specially sent it to the starling's house?" I approached the starling with a letter, hoping that he would understand that my insistence was justified.

The person who can save the fourth sister-in-law now is me, it's him, and even the tenth and fourteenth brothers sitting in this hall, but it will definitely not be the man who is busy taking care of the government for Huang Ama every day but doesn't care about the life or death of the fourth sister-in-law. Thinking about it like this, the words that came out of it had a bit of sarcasm, "What does it have to do with the fourth brother? Since it is a ransom, I will prepare it, and I don't need to bother the starling." What's more, such a large sum of silver, even if I send the letter over, the fourth brother can make it up? I don't believe it. ”

Be quiet.

The laughter that can often appear in this hall is like being blinded by the strong sunlight outside the door, like the surprise and ecstasy in my heart before I heard that the starling had no intention of interfering in this matter.

Starling looked at me wordlessly, I could feel that the tenth and fourteenth were also looking at me, at this moment, I don't point to anyone who can stand up and support me, as long as no one objects.

"Starling. ”

Someone finally stood up, and it was the old fourteenth who was a fellow brother and a mother. I don't care which one of him is closer to the fourth brother and starling, it's a matter between their brothers, the fourth sister-in-law has always been good to him, this kid can't ignore her life and death.

Yinzhen walked to me and my starling in a few steps, there was a little worry in his usual smile, and he only smiled at me and turned to starling, "Since the token belongs to the fourth sister-in-law, and the letter was also sent to you, I think it should be the meaning of the fourth sister-in-law." The younger brother didn't dare to beg the starling to come to the rescue, but the ninth brother was reasonable. Just treat it as the old fourteen disrespectful, say the last sentence, if you don't agree, just if you haven't seen this letter, let me and Brother Jiu deal with it. ”

Brother Starling's brows furrowed even tighter, staring at me and Lao Fourteen back and forth, without waiting for him to speak, Lao Shi's voice greeted him as warmly as a gong in the theater, "Then count me again, I can't help with the silver, just hand it over to Brother Jiu, we have a handful of strength, and we will ensure that the thieves will no longer dare to do evil." ”

"Haha. I laughed with Lao Shi, patting Lao Shi's arm left and right, and he stood steadily from us to slapping and pushing, still standing in place, really strong.

The starling brothers, who were originally so worried that they couldn't relieve their eyebrows, shook their heads and laughed, "In this case, the four of us brothers will be fine together, and the fourth sister-in-law will be rescued and sent to the fourth brother's mansion." ”

I couldn't believe that the starling brother agreed, and wanted to be with us, so I was so happy that I heard his words again, "I'm not a ruthless person, and the fourth sister-in-law should naturally help if she has something to do, but the three of you won't understand if you don't marry Fujin." Compare my heart with my heart, and say something unlucky, if I declare something wrong, how can I accept someone else's help. Ninth brother, do you understand?"

Do I understand?

I don't understand!

I didn't understand it from the beginning!

A woman who is curious about everything, likes to be lively, whimsy, a lot of women who are unwilling to be bound by the rules, and let Huang Ama match a fourth brother who is cold to the bones and does not smile everywhere, which is a match made in heaven.

What I don't understand even more is that such a woman can live peacefully with the fourth brother for so many years, won't she get bored? Every time I see the fourth brother's indifferent and lifeless face, I don't even bother to say a word to him, she actually treats him as a baby.

I don't understand, what is their life like, is it fun, what makes her so willing to guard him, so willing that she is happy to have children for him.

Women, I've seen a lot, and there is never a shortage of women in my world. Since I was a child, I have been praised by the woman of Huang Amma, saying that I am more handsome and beautiful than other brothers, and I have a brain that can calculate. The older ones are those lowly palace maids, some of whom are bold and direct staring at me, and some of whom are secretly hiding in the corner and chasing me, which almost makes me start to get tired of my innate face.

But they all have what women in the world should look like. No matter how smart and stupid he is, he will do everything he can for his man and even the man he wants to please, but the result is nothing more than to make himself benefit or more favor, such as my mother, such as those concubines, and like countless women in the palace.

But I have never seen a woman like her who is both self and completely puts the fourth brother first.

I know that she likes business, and I know it clearly from the day I met Wan Xiang Lou for dinner during the Chung Yeung Festival. So I am not surprised that the first floor of the capital is included in her hands, and I even admire that she can do what I can't do. But how could a man like the fourth brother let her go out to do business?

I didn't understand all of them, and even more so when I saw her in that tiny room with only one small window.

Far away from the hustle and bustle of Baylor Mansion, away from the worry-free life of fine clothes and food, she was still the same smile and smile, and there was no pain and anxiety on her face.

She didn't shy away from smiling at our women's dress, and thanked us for coming to save her, but what I could see more was her persistence in missing her fourth brother. Even if our three brothers tacitly didn't mention the fourth brother in front of her, even if she buried that miss in her heart and never took the initiative to mention it to us, I still know. Because her hands always unconsciously caress the belly of the fourth brother, the smile on her face is natural and real.

I didn't know what I wanted to do at that moment, just like before I left, Starling had asked me seriously in private what I wanted to do.

I don't really know.

Seeing her like this, my heart hurt so much that I wanted to hold her in my arms, just like in Concubine Min's Yongshou Palace, but I didn't dare. At this moment, I don't even have the courage to ignore it, because I am afraid, because I know that she doesn't need me, and she clearly said that the fourth brother - no one can replace me.

I trapped myself in a contradictory situation, unable to move forward, backward and entangled, even if I wanted to break my head, I didn't understand what I was going to do, how to spit out this resentment that was holding in my throat.

It wasn't until on the way back, drenched in the cold to the bone, until I saw her fainting in pain in front of my eyes, pinching her slender palm, and the dazzling blood dripping on my white hand, that I couldn't help but shout out, just to let her not give up, at least until the fourth brother she was thinking about came.

After two months of hard waiting, although I only accompanied him for one day, I could understand that this was the only thing I could clearly understand.

Here he came, on this winding mountain road where the rain was pouring down. Everyone but me was happy, and I could feel the tension that changed because of his presence.

I finally couldn't control my feelings, and I vented all the anger and fear in my heart regardless of it.

This person, who has been called the fourth brother by me for more than ten years, is the first time I have said so many things to him, and every word and sentence is full of accusations, because this is what he owes her. If she can't say it, I'll help her, she won't feel sorry for herself, but my heart will hurt. I just want to know if the heart of the man in front of me will hurt.

The child's face in June really changes.

It is not uncommon for the previous sun to turn into cold rain in an instant, but at this time, the starling brother and the fourteenth brother who were closest to me were all on his side, and even the thirteenth brother who had been drinking happily with me and said that he would rescue the fourth sister-in-law together was persuading me. In their eyes, it was as if I had become the only barrier to him seeing her.

Don't...... He's all right, I'm all wrong?

If it weren't for the fear that the miserable stupid woman in the carriage would not be able to hold on, if it weren't for the fact that he had finally arrived at this time, I promise, it would have been more than a few simple roars, never!

"Ninth Master ......"

I don't know how this outsider's name came out of her mouth, once upon a time, in the nearly ten years that I grew up, whether it was the ninth brother, the old nine or the little nine, even the name Yinyu She called me in various tones, but there was no word Jiuye.

I could hear the desperation in that cry, and so did I.

The rain kept falling, and it was constantly rushing down my face and hands, and on the clenched collar of my hands. I can't see if the fourth brother in front of me is full of anxiety, whether there are tears in the rain on his face, but I know that I have.

A prince who was born destined to be noble and proud, he has never tried what it feels like to cry from heartache, but fortunately, no one will care about my difference in this heavy rain. Tears fell from my weak hands.

Since I want to see him so much, I'll see you well, anyway, I can't do anything, I can't stop him, I can't stop anything.

I don't know if this time is considered to be a personal hand-over of her into his hands, anyway, she gave birth to another son and a daughter for him, and returned to his Baylor Mansion safely, and continued to be her fourth Baylor concubine. Although she hasn't woken up yet, I know that she will be fine, and she will definitely wake up.

It's just that token, but I left it.

The day after she returned home, the thirteenth brother took the initiative to ask me for a second drink, and the difference from the last time was that he talked to me about the world, and he was no longer just drunk and didn't talk.

We drank a lot, and there were countless small jars on the table that were neatly stacked on the floor, as organized as his words.

I don't know what the feelings he is talking about, family, friendship, and love, in his mouth are three different feelings, sometimes they are fighting separately and sometimes they are confused, but no matter what kind of feelings they are, they always have to understand what they want.

I was a little drunk, staring hard into his eyes and asking, "What's your affection?" The fourth sister-in-law has been good to you since she was a child, and you are good to her...... Do you have feelings?"

"Yes!"

Looking at his determined eyes, I smiled. I think he's even more drunk than me, if the fourth brother hears this, can the two brothers be good?

Yinxiang didn't care, holding a small wine jar in his hand and swaying slightly, but his eyes were always looking directly at me, "It's family affection and friendship, these two feelings are also the expression of love, but they are different from love." ”

"What's the difference?" I had never heard so many feelings in my world, let alone thought about these questions, but I was interested in hearing how to tell in his heart.

"There are not many different places, because we all have to tolerate and understand, we will never forget, we will all feel distressed and sad, and the only difference is ...... Family and friendship can let go, as long as she is happy, but the hand of love can't let go. is like the fourth brother and the fourth sister-in-law, the two of them can't let go of each other, but if I can let go, so can you. ”

Yinxiang left, chatting from beginning to end, and in the end it was just to leave such a paragraph. I had a moment of clarity in my mind, and walked to the window to look at the back of the young man hidden in the crowd on the bustling street downstairs, and slid to the ground.

Do I love her? maybe.

Perhaps, as Yinxiang said, what can let go of your hand is not love.

I took the red thread ring out of my sleeve pocket and thought about the embroidered screen I had seen in the Starlings' Mansion. My cousin said that she sent it, and I naturally know the meaning, and your heart has promised to remain the same......

I understand.

I just hope that the fourth brother understands.
