The old servant's pace was very slow, and when he reached the open space in the front yard, Lin Xiaojue and Lan Junyuan stopped to wait for him, because there was no one else except him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

When the old servant approached, he pointed to the third door of the main room: "Your Excellency is inside, Lord Lan, please." ”

Lin Xiaojue also has to follow.

The old servant said, "Are you Princess Yong'an?" ”

Lan Junyuan and Lin Xiaojue both stopped.

Lin Xiaojue bowed slightly: "I am." ”

The old servant swayed and wanted to salute.

Lin Xiaojue said busily; "You don't have to be polite, you just say something."

The old servant is humane; "The princess is indeed benevolent." He also said: "My lord wants to talk to Lord Lan, the princess is here, my wife has prepared a snack for the princess, and Princess Qing will taste it." ”

This is to separate Lin Xiaojue.

Lan Junyuan grabbed Lin Xiaojue's hand.

Lin Xiaojue patted the back of his hand: "Notify me if you have something, don't worry about me, you can go." ”

Lin Xiaojue followed the old servant into a row of rooms on the east side.

Lan Junyuan watched her enter the door, and then turned around to pat the noon door.

As soon as I knocked on it, the door came.

There was a person standing at the door, of medium stature, with a thin face, wearing a gray straight jacket, his hair was in a very neat bun, and the whole person gave people a very upright feeling, which was the usual dress of Confucianism, and because of this, in addition to this bookish anger, he seemed to have no other characteristics, and he was very ordinary alone.

He stood at the door in a daze, looking straight at Lan Junyuan.

With towering, Lan Junyuan had seen it earlier, so it was towering.

Lan Junyuan arched his hand: "Senior brother." ”

Gao Gao suddenly smiled, the smile was a little uncomfortable, but it could be seen from the eyes that it was from the heart.

He let out the door: "Come in and talk." ”

The house is a fire kang by the north, a stool is placed under the south window, and there are three simple character scrolls hanging on the west wall, I can't see who wrote it, but the handwriting is very stylish, it is a good word.

Under the calligraphy and painting is a simple flat case, which is piled with straw paper, and there is a chair in front of the case.

Then there is a pair of red plain boxes on the kang tip, and there are no other furnishings.

There was a residual warmth in the house, and the kang was burned, and it was very warm.

Lan Junyuan did not take off his cloak.

Gao Towering said: "It's still early, take it off." ”

Lin Xiaojue pursed her lips, and finally took off her cloak.

Gao Shu personally helped him hang it in the next room, and then came back and pointed to the chair under the window: "Sit." ”

Lan Junyuan raised his hand: "You also please." ”

Gao Xuan moved two chairs and placed them on the side of the kang, so that the chairs were facing each other, and then asked Lan Junyuan to sit opposite him.

Lan Junyuan thought to himself, this person is really strange.

But he sat down anyway, and then he silently watched the tower.

Gao Lou didn't speak, but also looked at him.

Looking at it, my eyes seem to be red.

Lan Junyuan looked puzzled, and was about to speak.

"How old are you today?" ”

Who would have thought that he would ask this sentence as soon as he opened his mouth, not only women, but also men, it is rude for unfamiliar people to ask about age.

Lan Junyuan was slightly stunned.

Gao said: "Twenty-five years old this year, right?" Monkey's. ”

Lan Junyuan: "......"

"It's a monkey."

Towering chuckled: "The monkey is good and lively." And he said, "I am five years older than you, and I am a dragon." ”

Lan Junyuan thought about it and hummed; "Long is mighty, and it's good."

Gao towered and said: "Where am I powerful, I can't even remember the appearance of my relatives." ”

Lan Junyuan didn't speak.

Gao said, "You don't know where I came from, do you? ”

Lan Junyuan thought for a while and said, "I know a little bit about it." ”

Because he is a Han Chinese, and he is full of hostility towards him, of course he has to investigate.

Towering said with a wry smile; "I'll tell you about it again."

Lan Junyuan was noncommittal.

Towering his head slightly, looking at the void in front of him, his eyes focused on one point, as if he was recalling the past.

Immediately, he spoke about him in a calm tone.

"Let's start with my life experience, I'm a very ominous person, I'm an orphan, my dad is a tried-and-failed showman, my mother's embroidery is very good, but the health is not good, so it's an honest woman who makes a living by doing work for people, I'm two years old, my dad still didn't get lifted, he was disheartened, he committed suicide by throwing himself into the lake, the body was fished up, my mother couldn't accept the facts, couldn't afford to be sick, and died in a few days, I also have an uncle, after occupying my family's three acres of land, because my aunt is particularly spicy, unwilling to support me, I want to sell people, At this time, my father's friend came forward and gave my uncle two taels of silver and took me home, and from then on I became his adopted son, and he became my adoptive father. ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Lan Junyuan,

Lan Junyuan's heart moved, and he sat up straight.

Gao Xuan smiled, this time the smile was very warm and comfortable.

continued; "My adoptive father and adoptive mother treat me as my own, although the last memory of them is five years old, but I remember clearly, there is no money at home, my adoptive mother is afraid that I will not eat well, or to save money from other places, I have to buy meat back in a few days, she and my adoptive father do not eat, all left to me, but the meat is too expensive, the fish is cheap, but the fish has thorns, the adoptive mother is afraid that I am small, I was pierced, every time before eating, I have to pick fish in the kitchen for half an hour, and I take care of me almost meticulously."

Lan Junyuan said: "They are so good. ”

Gao Xuan gritted his teeth and smiled: "Yes, there is no better person in this world than them, I am just the son of an old man, my father can leave our mother and son, my uncle and aunt can dislike me as an orphan, but they don't, my adoptive father values righteousness, and my adoptive mother is kind-hearted, if it weren't for them, how could I, a two-year-old orphan, live to be five years old?" ”

Five years old, so what about after five years old?

Why did his impression of his adoptive parents stay only at the age of five?

Lan Junyuan had an answer in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.

"Unfortunately, my adoptive parents died when I was five years old. ”

Lan Junyuan asked, "How did you die?" ”

Gao Xuan shook his head: "I didn't know before, and then it was speculation, and there was no conclusive evidence." In short, they died. ”

Lan Junyuan's expression was a little moved.

Gao said: "There is more to come." Then he said: "I was five years old when my adoptive parents died, and I was sensible, and they said that they were going to take my aunt home, because there was no one to work at home, and my adoptive mother was pregnant, and my adoptive father was not worried about my adoptive mother, so he took my adoptive mother with him, but if he took me, he was afraid that he would not be able to take care of me, so he handed me over to the widow and grandmother of the neighbor's house to take care of, and they said that they would come back in twenty days, but I waited, waited, and the grain had already been harvested when they left, and they did not come back in the spring of the next year." I asked the widow grandmother, why hasn't my father and mother come back? My grandmother was already sixty years old, she had no children and no daughters, and of course she didn't know, so she took me to the lieutenant chief and asked the lieutenant chief to help inquire about the news. ”
