CHAPTER XXXI

Seeing Yan Ruiqian running away, Dye Xiang went downstairs, and then ran out of Tingyuxuan like a whirlwind, and asked puzzledly:

"What's wrong with Childe?"

Yan Zhaohua bypassed the dyeing incense, walked to the window, looked at Yan Ruiqian's departing back, her mood was very complicated, she felt that she had helped Yan Ruiqian clean up the cancer around her, but she didn't think of what a normal boy was thinking in his head at this age. Thoughtfully returned to her seat, Dye Xiang saw that Yan Zhaohua didn't speak, thinking that the sister and brother had another quarrel, so she didn't dare to ask more, so she packed up her things and went downstairs.

Yan Zhaohua has never had children, so he really can't react well to Yan Ruiqian's question. She doesn't know what to do, boys should be guided at this age, parents and brothers can do it, but Xie Wei died early, Yan Xiu went out on the expedition, and her brother didn't, and her eldest sister was a girl who had not been out of the cabinet, how could she attract a boy in this regard.

One night, Yan Zhaohua was like a pancake, tossing and turning on the bed, sleeping in a cold sweat, his mind was full of pictures of Yan Ruiqian being kicked out of the house in the previous life, and he woke up suddenly, and then he couldn't sleep anymore.

After getting up in the morning, there were still several shops to see, but Yan Zhaohua couldn't calm down, he always felt that Yan Ruiqian couldn't go on like this, he was only thirteen years old, there were many things still in the ignorant stage, everyone was in the clouds, there was no correct concept at all, if he was left alone at this time, no one could say where he would be crooked in the future.

Yan Zhaohua changed his clothes, asked Qingzhu to see if Yan Ruiqian was in the school, and went to Qingcang Courtyard by himself, not daring to tell the truth to the Liu family, he could only say that he wanted to go to the grange outside the city, and asked Yan Ruiqian to go with him, although the Liu family didn't understand why Yan Zhaohua suddenly wanted to take Yan Ruiqian there, but he didn't stop it, and said:

"The weather outside is good, it's good for you to go out for a walk, behind the grange is Rabbit Mountain, the scenery is very beautiful. Take more people out and be alert. ”

Yan Zhaohua nodded gratefully with Liu's family, and listened to Yuxuan with his thoughts, Qingzhu just asked back, saying that Yan Ruiqian was in the school, Yan Zhaohua asked Qingzhu to notify the concierge and the nursing home, she was going out to the grange near Rabbit Mountain, let the concierge set the car, and the nursing home accompanied her. Then he went to the school in person and called Yan Ruiqian out of the house.

The sister and brother got into the carriage, and no one spoke, because of yesterday's incident, both of them felt a little embarrassed, Yan Ruiqian didn't even dare to raise his head, and Yan Zhaohua glanced at him occasionally, wondering how to share these things with him.

"That...... Eldest sister, don't take what I said yesterday to heart, I also thought about it when I went back later, it is indeed me who is wrong, I should not use that dirty mind, I should concentrate on learning, and strive to come back after taking the exam next year. ”

Although Yan Ruiqian said this, he really knew that he had no talent for reading, although he had passed the Tongsheng examination, but next year's Xiucai had no confidence, but the eldest sister still had great hopes for him, which invisibly gave him a lot of pressure, but these could not be said to the eldest sister, after all, the eldest sister was also good for him.

Yan Zhaohua sighed, didn't speak, and waited until he got off the carriage, and the maids and wives waited for them to enter Zhuangzi, which is a small manor, there is a big mountain behind it, the green mountains are pine and green, and the green shade is surrounded by plants, and it is called Rabbit Mountain, which is also a small scenic spot near the capital.

Yan Zhaohua couldn't think of any other way to broaden Yan Ruiqian's horizons, and just wanted to take him out to climb high and look far away, so that his mind would not be so narrow-minded, and he would always be disturbed by some things in the back house. She hopes that this only brother can have great insight in his future life, and he does not have to be in a high position, but at least he must have a broad mind and a far-sighted vision.

I didn't want to delay, I went to the inner room to change into a light-colored narrow-sleeved culottes, changed into a pair of soft-soled embroidered shoes on my feet, and held a white gauze hat in my hand, Yan Ruiqian was still waiting in the yard nervously, still didn't quite understand, my sister called him out, and didn't talk to him, what did he want to do, Yan Zhaohua passed by him and whispered:

"Come with me to the mountain."

Then he passed by Yan Ruiqian's side, two maids, and four guards followed.

At the foot of the mountain, many people around stopped the carriage and horse sedan chair, all took advantage of the good weather to go out and climb the mountain, Yan Zhaohua put on a hat, and walked to the mountain road without twisting. Yan Zhaohua took a relatively wide path up the mountain, there are many mountain roads next to it, many people go up the mountain, they disperse, after all, taking the path is a shortcut to find seclusion, and the main road, you can only look at the scenery on both sides, and then climb all the way up, not to mention, it's not interesting.

Yan Ruiqian felt that his sister was still angry, walking fast, and seemed to feel a little overdrawn, the two maids had been left behind by Yan Zhaohua, Yan Ruiqian trotted all the way behind her, carefully pulled Yan Zhaohua's sleeve, and said:

"Sister, don't be angry, I apologized and promised you, I will never say those words again in the future, is it not possible? I, I just want people, and I will never want people around my sister anymore, so you can rest assured. ”

Yan Zhaohua turned his head to look at him, and said coldly: "Do you think I'm unreasonable in your heart?" I think it's just a maid with me, I can't be so angry, can I? ”

Yan Zhaohua was finally willing to put her eyes on Yan Ruiqian's body, she stopped, waved her hand to the four guards who followed behind her, and the guards consciously took a few steps back, Yan Zhaohua looked back and forth, she walked relatively fast, there were not many people on the main road up the mountain, so she crossed her waist and decided to take advantage of this conversation to talk to Yan Ruiqian about the reason.

"If that's what you think, then I'm too disappointed in you. I don't expect you to take the Xiucai, the exam, I don't want you to be famous, I just want you to understand right and wrong, clear reason, if I really just want you to do learning, why did I take Sun Chong away from you in the first place, he is a master of learning, there is no doubt about it, but he has a bad character, he will mislead people's children, I want you to be a gentleman who behaves rightly and stands upright, I don't want you to become like some children of the family are romantic, men should be ambitious, ambition can never be in the back house, You can't hide in the gentle countryside of the back house for the rest of your life, right? ”

Yan Ruiqian lowered his head and let Yan Zhaohua speak, Yan Zhaohua was bored and didn't sleep all night, but at the moment he was very energetic, and after a long speech, he paused, and then continued:

"How old are you? Thirteen years old! At the age of thirteen, do you think it should be time for you to think about women? Do you know what a woman is? Do you think that as long as you can take care of your daily life, you are a woman, right? There are so many maids who serve you, do you have to put them all into your room? Today you and I want to dye incense, but tomorrow? Do you want green bamboo? What about the day after tomorrow? But have you ever thought about it, far away, your father is still fighting bloody battles on the battlefield, life and death are still uncertain, recently, your mother-in-law has just passed away for two years, what should you do at this time, what should you not do, don't you have any self-consciousness? Don't you know how many pairs of eyes are staring at you behind you? Your identity can indeed determine whether a maid stays or not, but if you don't grow up, you will only be a gentleman in the end, what do you do with these women by your side? What can you give them? Worry-free about food and clothing? Splendor? Sorry, you don't have that ability yet! You are from a good Hou Mansion, but you are not even a son today, what qualifications do you have to think about such messy things? ”

Yan Ruiqian glanced up at Yan Zhaohua, and was also angry in her heart when she asked a series of questions, and said back:

"What my sister said is too mean, like Brother Ping, where is the son of the world, and I don't see much ability. I know that my sister has always looked down on me, but she can't say these hurtful words, I'm just a useless waste in your heart? I just asked you for a maid, and I apologized to you, what else are you going to do? I've said that I want people from now on, and I won't touch the people around you, so isn't that okay? And I've already said it, I don't want it now, wait until I take the Xiucai exam, what else do you want me to do? ”

Yan Zhaohua saw that he was still obsessed, and suddenly became anxious, lowered his voice and said angrily:

"No one! Did you understand what I was saying? This kind of thing is not what you should be thinking about right now. What do you have to learn from Brother Peace? Brother Ping is a person in the second room of the Xie family, and he is a concubine, can you be the same as him? ”

"How is it different? What if he's a concubine, and what if I'm a concubine? Since I was a child, I didn't even live as a concubine, but now that I'm older, do you want me to be like a concubine? You just look down on me, think I'm incompetent, think I'm not worthy of you, don't you? I know I'm useless, I don't need you to say it! ”

After Yan Ruiqian replied to Yan Zhaohua like this, he turned around and ran towards the mountain, a boy of his age was in rebellion and the thinnest skin, although he also knew that the request he made yesterday was a little inappropriate, but he felt that he had already reflected on his apology, and also promised Yan Zhaohua that he would want people in the future, and he would not beat the idea of people around her, and in this world, it is a common thing for a man to have three wives and four concubines, he just wants to be the wrong person, and there is no unforgivable mistake, If Yan Zhaohua could talk to him well, if he didn't carry a gun and a stick like this, maybe Yan Ruiqian would have listened to it, but now, Yan Ruiqian not only didn't listen to it, but also misunderstood what Yan Zhaohua meant, thinking that Yan Zhaohua deliberately ridiculed him and hurt his self-esteem.

Yan Zhaohua immediately followed, chased after him, and shouted as he ran: "Yan Ruiqian, you stop for me!" ”

The sister and brother chased for a while, Yan Zhaohua was a little overwhelmed, so he asked the guards to catch up and intercept him, but he didn't expect that after a while, there were two exclamations from above, Yan Zhaohua heard that one of the voices was Yan Ruiqian's, and hurriedly raised his spirit and chased after him, for fear that Yan Ruiqian would have an accident.

After rushing to the top, I found that Yan Ruiqian collided with a person who walked down from the path next to him, that person seemed to be a little familiar, as if he was the son of the Zhenguo Mansion, what is Fan Wenchao's, I saw him and Yan Ruiqian bumped into each other, fell to the ground and wailed, and Yan Ruiqian on the side was much stricter than him, covering his nose, there was blood spilling from between his fingers, this was hitting his nose, Yan Zhaohua saw this, and immediately panicked, and hurriedly stepped forward to see Yan Ruiqian's injury, but as soon as he got closer, But he saw another familiar person behind Fan Wenchao.

He was wearing a smoke-colored embroidered dark pattern cloud goose, as beautiful as a pine, his black hair was tied up with a black hair crown, and he crossed a white jade simple hairpin, Xiao Xiao was solemn, his body was dignified, and his appearance was even more unconventional, handsome and elegant like a fairy, not Pei Xuan, who was it?
