Sjepan practiced calligraphy at home for a few days, but refused to practice anymore, and every day he stared at the "HelloWorld" banner written by Brother Jiu on the wall in a daze, saying that he had a sense of intimacy when he looked at this.

He was so lonely in Elder Brother's Mansion that he couldn't understand anything, and the only one who could understand what he said was Brother Jiu alone, and occasionally, the two of them could even grasp some unbelievable topics and have whimsical discussions.

But it is impossible for Brother Jiu to accompany him at home every day to talk about the universe and aliens. And compared with Sjiepan, Brother Jiu's social range is much larger, which caused Sjiepan's dissatisfaction.

He said, why does Brother Jiu go out to play every day, but he can only stay at home?

He's going to hang out too.

Brother Jiu glared at him: "Am I going out to play?" I'm going to the court! Go and meet the relevant princes and ministers! I have received the decree and I have a mission! ”

"Liar!" Not to be outdone, "I asked, you didn't go to court today, you went to play with the fourth elder brother!" Look at it, play until dark and come back! ”

Brother Jiu was not angry: "Who went to play?" I went to the fourth brother to discuss serious matters, who is so idle like you? ”

Sjepan threw the brush in his hand and looked stunned: "I don't want to be so idle." If I hadn't made it here, I'd be busy preparing for the meeting in Copenhagen right now......"

Brother Nine thought it was funny: "Why are you still thinking about Copenhagen?" That meeting, is it really that heavy? ”

Sjepan said hatefully: "You won't understand if I told you!" ”

Brother Jiu shrugged indifferently: "Yes, I don't understand, how can people in the Qing Dynasty understand embryos?" All we know is that when it's hot, a bunch of toads pop out of the lotus pond. ”

Sjepan laughed.

At this time, Fu Jin came into the house, and she seemed to have something to say to Brother Jiu, but she glanced at Sjepan next to her, and stopped talking.

Having been here all these days, and now that he had learned to look at people's eyes, he knew that couples wanted to talk about business, so he had to mutter, and turned his head and went inside.

At first, he greeted Jiufujin very gentlemanly, greeted her, bowed slightly, and said, "Madam, good evening." "I almost didn't give a kiss.

Jiufu Jin couldn't accept this at all, but was so frightened by him that he retreated again and again, looking at him like a monster. Since the hostess reacted in this way, Sjepan saw her again, and he had to avoid it.

When Sjepan went out, Fu Jin frowned slightly. She had always disliked Sjepan, and she couldn't tell what the resistance was, so she thought this person was weird, and she hated it very much.

Maybe it's because of Sjepan, there is a little reproach in her tone of voice, which means that Brother Jiu has been running out recently, and it is not for official business, even if he stays at home, he will be with this foreigner all day long. What does this look like?

Brother Jiu listened silently, and did not refute, only said lightly, Si Jiepan is not a bad person, let's just keep him here temporarily, there are many people in the family, there are no more mouthfuls of food, one more clothes to wear, we are not to the extent that we can't afford to support him.

"I didn't say I didn't want to keep it." Fu Jin paused before he said again, "Do you think I'm such a stingy person?" It's just that up and down the house, no one can figure out where he came from. When he speaks, he is rude and unruly, and he is not at all decent. ”

Brother Jiu wanted to say that he was not an ordinary person, but a scientist who studied embryos - but he couldn't say this to his wife.

"If you're really looking at him, it's an eyesore. Just send him to do something. Brother Jiu smiled, "But if he can do it, he will definitely not refuse." ”

"What can he do?" Fu Jin said disdainfully, "You can't lift your hands and shoulders, and you can't even beat a bucket of water." ”

Brother Jiu was taken aback: "You really let him go to work?" ”

Fu Jin said angrily: "How dare I!" It was he who watched the little guy carry water and said that he could do it, but after walking two steps, he fell to the ground and spilled the water. ”

Brother Jiu sighed, and set back three hundred years, turning an outstanding scientific and technological talent into waste.

Not wanting to discuss Sjepan with his wife anymore, the Nine Elder Brother simply asked her what was the matter.

Fu Jin said that one of Tong Guowei's nephews came over during the day, and that person was an old friend of Brother Jiu, and he only said two words of greeting when he came, and left when he saw that Brother Jiu was not in his family.

"He didn't say anything?" Brother Nine asked.

"It doesn't look like there's something going on." Fu Jin smiled, "Come to think of it, most of them pulled the master out to drink the bar." ”

Brother Jiu thought to himself, fortunately, he has been secretly acting recently, otherwise let these former fox friends know that he went to Yongwang Mansion today, and it would not be a genius to make trouble!

Thinking about it this way, Brother Jiu realized that he hadn't interacted with these friends for a while, and he had been sticking with Yinzhen and them recently, because there were secrets hidden in his heart, and Brother Jiu was unwilling to associate with people who didn't know the truth.

But it will definitely not work if it goes on like this, he hasn't escaped from the Qing Dynasty yet, and he can't offend all the forces on his side first.

So he nodded and said, "Later, I'll write a post for someone to send over." ”

Fu Jin paused before he smiled and said, "So, it's another wine banquet in two days?" ”

Brother Jiu also smiled: "Otherwise, how boring it is for you to tell me to squat at home." ”

When Fu Jin heard what he said, he was even more unhappy, so he said lightly: "I see that my lord is now more open-minded than before, it doesn't matter what happens, as long as there is wine to drink, there is drama to watch, and nothing else matters." ”

Brother Jiu was stunned, he said this in his heart and it sounded familiar, and after thinking about it, he remembered that this was Jia Lian's mantra - there is still a big gap between himself and Jia Lian, right?

Thinking like this, Brother Jiu couldn't help but sigh, he stretched out his hand and pulled Fu Jin, and said with a smile: "Don't worry about it during this time, what can't you throw it to the back first?" ”

"I don't have the leisure of the grandfather." Fu Jin said with a straight face, "You run out every day, and the pots and bowls at home are overturned, and if I learn from you, I will leave it alone, then this family will not be like a home." ”

Brother Jiu was under the lamp, looking at Fujin carefully, he remembered that Julia had said that Jiufujin looked like Scarlett Johansson, and at this moment, seeing his wife's unhappy face, that expression was really a little similar.

Actually, it's a beauty, right? Brother Jiu couldn't help but think, but he didn't know why, there was never a spark between the two, and they both knew that this was not each other's problem, not that the situation would change if there was another person.

Lonely ghost.

These three words came out of his heart, and Brother Jiu's chest suddenly became sore.

His wife, like him, is an emotional loner who can't love anyone.

He doesn't love her, and she doesn't love him, but he has been a husband and wife for so many years......

The two of them are really "right together" in this regard.

But, after all, there is still guilt, and Brother Jiu thinks wildly that if she marries a more passionate man, if her husband can love her more, maybe the situation will change...... But that's also difficult, Jiufujin's husband, even if he is not an elder brother like him, must be a prince and nobleman, and if he wants to find a little truth in the ritualized old-style marriage, God knows how much luck it will have to hit.

In the past, he had never thought about this, at that time he knew nothing, and he felt that everything was natural and that there was nothing wrong.

But now, he sees something wrong, but he can't change it.

"What's wrong with you?" Fu Jin looked at Brother Jiu suspiciously, she rarely saw such a confused and helpless look on her husband's face, which made her a little nervous for no reason.

Brother Jiu coughed and came back to his senses: "It's nothing. What about Hongai? Yesterday I said I had a little fever, how is it today? ”

"I took a dose of medicine and now I'm much better."

Then, Fu Jin and Brother Jiu chatted a few more words before they retreated.

That night, probably reminding the past, Brother Jiu sat under the lamp for a long time, and the account book that he was supposed to read was left unturned in front of him.

For no reason, Andre's words rang in his ears again: "...... It's like inertia, because it's repeated countless times, and it's very solid. ”

Very stable, very safe, and very stuffy.

He suddenly became bored and exhausted, and felt that everything in front of him was meaningless.

He was so tired of this life.

Unable to sit down, Brother Jiu simply pushed open the account book, stood up, and went to the back room.

Sjepan slept here, as he didn't like candlelight very much, so he usually went to bed early.

But at this moment, Brother Jiu walked into the inner room, only to find him sitting at the head of the bed, surrounded by sheets, holding the things in his hand with his head down, as if he was eating something.

"What the hell are you doing?" Brother Nine asked.

As soon as he entered, Sjepan quickly hid his things behind his back.

Brother Jiu took the lamp and said angrily: "What are you eating?" ”

Sjepan hesitated for a long time before taking out what he was holding, which was a small plate of pine nut cream rolls.

"Where did it come from?" Brother Jiu asked again.

"Honghui gave it to me." "He went to the kitchen...... I went to the kitchen and got it for me, and I said I like it, and he brought it for me. ”

Brother Jiu couldn't cry or laugh: "You asked the child to steal something to eat for you?" It's a bit of a success! Didn't you eat dinner? ”

Sjepan lowered his head and blushed a little: "But, this is delicious......

"Why don't you tell me if you want to eat this?" Brother Jiu glanced at him, "You still secretly hide in bed to eat, look at this bed of scum, how do you sleep at night?" ”

"I'll take the plate and take it." Sjepan laughed, "Didn't fall out of bed." ”

"You're going to sleep and eating such sweet things, you want to get tooth decay!"

"But, it's delicious......"

Brother Jiu said angrily: "I knew you liked to eat this, and I will ask the kitchen to make you a cage tomorrow." ”

"Huh? A cage? Still don't. ”

"Don't you like this?"

Sjepan put down the plate in his hand, he was a little ashamed: "I specially asked the kitchen to make this for me, Fujin will be unhappy when he knows." Still is...... Never mind. ”

Brother Jiu glared at him: "Such a big man, why is his heart so small that he is like Lin Daiyu under the fence?" ”

Sjepan lowered his head and looked a little depressed: "Am I just sending people under the fence now?" ”

Brother Jiu glanced at him lightly: "Your self-esteem is so strong?" ”

"I don't have much self-esteem, I don't even have dignity." Sjepan said stupidly, wiping the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, "I can only be locked up in the mansion by you, and I can't even get out of the door, and I don't even know what is going on." ”

As soon as he said this, Brother Jiu was silent for a while.

"It's just going to be this month." Brother Jiu finally said, "In a few days, Andre will come back, and I will send you back." ”

"What about you?" "Staying here for the rest of your life?" ”

"I'm not staying here, where am I going?" Brother Jiu said lightly.

Sjepan looked at him and sighed for no reason.

"You shouldn't be here." He suddenly said, "I can't say why, but I always feel that you don't fit in with the people here." You're having a hard time here, you only have something to say to the fourth brother and the eighth brother, and the rest of the people are annoying you. ”

Sjepan actually saw it!

"As you say, I'm not going to stay here for the rest of my life." He said slowly, "Andrei will take us away." As for where to go, don't ask. ”

Sjepan nodded, and he looked at Brother Jiu again: "However, will you be reluctant to be here?" ”

"What's there to be reluctant to?" Brother Jiu said lightly, "I am no longer from the Qing Dynasty. ”

"How?"

"Strictly speaking, I'm an e-commerce company." Brother Jiu said lazily, "I'm still a software engineer, don't look at me now dragging my braids to be a brother, in fact, there were headhunters who poached me to go to Google before." ”

Sjepan was taken aback: "Really?!" This...... It's amazing! I really think you're from the Qing Dynasty! It turns out that I was mistaken, and it turns out that you are already the same as me. ”

Sjepan's words evoked a lot of memories for Brother Jiu, and he simply lay down beside him.

"You can imagine how embarrassing our days are now." Brother Nine said slowly, "We're a bunch of code that goes wrong, you know? For the system of Daqing, we are not a brother, we are a bug. If you don't want to be modified, you have to be eliminated. ”

Sjepan nodded: "It's like me and my dad." My dad was a wine merchant, and he always wanted my son to follow in his father's business, but now I'm doing embryo research, and he always says, why do you waste all your time on things that you can't see without a microscope? For him, it is not as clear as a wine cellar, then there is no value. ”

Brother Jiu laughed, he still remembered the resumes of the last two Sjepans - they just ran away from college halfway, and in order to make money, they abandoned their studies to sell drugs and smuggle guns.

It turns out that time and space are also jokes.

"So I don't think His Majesty the Emperor will be able to understand you...... and your e-commerce. ”

"You still need to say it. So there's no better way out for us than to get out of here. ”

"Then, will you take these big wives and little wives of yours with you?"

Brother Jiu pillowed his arms and rolled his eyes at the roof beam: "What are you taking out?" How will they live when they leave here? ”

"Oh, don't take it away. Are you willing to do that? ”

"What's there to be reluctant to." Brother Jiu said lightly, "They have their lives. ”

"Then, won't Hongyu take it with you?" Sjepan turned over and looked at him worriedly, "Take him with you!" ”

Brother Nine glared at him: "It's your turn to call the shots in this matter?" Speak like your son! ”

"If you don't want him, I want ......"

Brother Jiu was so angry that he raised his hand and wanted to beat him, but his arm touched Sjepan's knee, and he groaned, inhaling cold air in pain.

Brother Jiu hurriedly sat up: "What's wrong?" ”

I took the lamp and lifted my trouser leg to see that this guy's left knee was scratched a large piece.

"How did you get hurt?!"

Looking at Sjepan again, his expression was ashamed, and he couldn't answer.

Brother Jiu remembered: "It was when I was carrying water during the day, right?" ”

“…… Well. ”

Brother Nine sighed, got up and went out, and after a short time the servant brought the medicine, he asked Sjepan to hold the lamp, and then carefully applied the medicine to the knee injury.

"What use do you say!" Brother Jiu scoffed, "Except for being able to write papers, the rest is useless." ”

Sjepan blushed and struggled to say, "My paper has been on nature and cell ......"

Brother Jiu snorted: "I've been on nature and has a fart!" You go and ask me Huang Ama to see if he understands what nature is - yes, this is to choose the prince and see whose papers are published more, how good is that! With you, I'm going to be the prince. ”

Sjepan was stunned for a moment, and said seriously: "Not necessarily, Julia is said to be a genius girl, and Andre is even more of a genius among geniuses - this guy is less than thirty years old, and he has published ten CNS papers." ”

At this moment, even Brother Jiu couldn't help but swear a swear word: "What about you writing romance novels?!" That's an exaggeration! ”

Sjepan spread his hands: "So you see, I'm a scum in front of him, we can't compare." ”

Brother Jiu was happy by him: "So, in the end, the fourth child has to be the emperor?" Damn, I can't even spell him for papers! What is the reason of heaven! ”

"You can convince the emperor to change the criteria for selecting the crown prince to 'write code'. Then you will definitely be able to become a prince! ”

Brother Jiu glanced at him angrily: "I'm embarrassed to say!" Is this noble and glamorous thing like code something that the emperor and Ama can appreciate? You said that you are really, so useless, and you can't help me get on the throne, why am I raising you? It's been so long since I've been here, and there's no movement from Yu Jin's side, so it seems that he doesn't bother to rescue you. I guess I dumped you. ”

Brother Jiu said, turning his head to put the lamp in his hand, he didn't notice the gradual heavy breath of Sjepan, and he was still there: "...... Look at you, your boyfriend dumped you, even your boss dumped you, you're a fool, you're taken advantage of and happy to help you count money, and when people run out, they throw you away as a burden......"

When he said this, he was originally casually teasing, but to the surprise of Brother Jiu, Sjepan suddenly jumped up as if he had been stung by a wasp!

"Yes! I'm stupid! I can't do anything! I can't get used to seeing you drive me away! You drove me out of the Qing Dynasty! You think I'd like to stay here! ”

Brother Jiu looked at Sjepan in surprise, the latter's voice was trembling, and even his eyes were red!

He had always thought that this Sjepan was a very gentle person, and he would not have a temper no matter how he stabbed him, so what happened tonight?

"Are you angry?" He asked softly.

Sjepan's chest rose and fell for a while, and he suddenly lay down, with his back to Brother Jiu, no matter what he said, he didn't pay attention to it. (To be continued.) )
