Eighth Brother's apartment is on Jinghai Road, near where Ye Xun's parents live. When the three of them arrived home, the eighth elder brother opened the door and let them in.

"The house I bought last year." He smiled, "I'm too lazy to decorate carefully, I can live alone and feel comfortable." ”

The two came into the room with excitement and looked around. There are really not many things in the house, the household appliances are placed in a very inconspicuous place, there are a few potted plants in the corner, there are two elegant calla lilies in the porcelain vase on the table, and the rest are calligraphy and paintings, books, and the pen of Rulin......

"It reminds me of the house where Starling used to be." Brother Ten sighed with emotion, "It's the same as this." ”

Brother Jiu smiled: "At that time, there was no anti-theft door. ”

The eighth elder brother also smiled: "It doesn't matter if the security door or anything, this is a high-level community, and there is monitoring 24 hours a day." ”

Brother Ten sighed: "Brother Nine, is your house half the size of Brother Starling?" ”

Eighth Elder Brother smiled: "Lao Jiu, have you bought a house?" ”

Brother Jiu nodded: "On Fuhai Avenue, I just bought it, and I haven't renovated it yet." ”

"Where do you live now? Where is Julia? ”

As soon as he said Julia, the two of them suddenly remembered what they had done recently, and they couldn't help but glance at each other.

Seeing them like this, the eighth elder brother smiled and said, "What? Is there anything else you can't tell me? ”

Brother Ten hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no!" Brother Starling, you said that you were joking too much, Brother Jiu and I didn't know that Ye Xun was you before, and we were still discussing to settle accounts with you, hehe! ”

Eighth Elder Brother smiled even more: "Really? It seems that you are now. Quite protective of the fourth brother. ”

When Brother Jiu heard this, the wind was not in the right direction, and he hurriedly said: "That's not what you mean, Brother Starling, don't listen to the old ten!" In the past two years, our lives have been turbulent, if it weren't for Julia's thoughtfulness, I and Lao Shi wouldn't know how much we would have planted! ”

Eighth Elder Brother looked at him intently, and then nodded: "Well, I know that." Julia is a good girl. Ye Xun's mother said the same. ”

Brother Jiu hurriedly said, "And we don't plan to continue to live with her, we'll move out soon." Right now, Old Thirteen's house is empty. I'm going to move to Zhongshan Road. ”

The eighth elder brother shook his head: "Why do you live in his house?" Come and stay with me. Anyway, I can't live in so many empty houses alone, and there are people to clean and serve, which is much more convenient. ”

Brother Ten smiled and said, "Brother Starling." Don't you have a girlfriend? If the girlfriend comes over. See, we live here. That's not ...... Ha ha! ”

Eighth Elder Brother smiled: "Look at my house, do you look like you have a girlfriend?" ”

"Huh? Why don't you find a girlfriend? Brother Ten said, "Brother Starling, don't worry. Brother Jiu has too many girlfriends to use up, so let him introduce you to a row when the time comes! ”

The eighth elder brother laughed, and the ninth elder brother was so angry that he wanted to beat the tenth elder brother: "What do you mean you can't run out!" You think it's all blowing?! ”

"Let's forget about it." Eighth Elder Brother couldn't help but laugh and said, "The Ye family's family talks all day long, and now you come to talk again, spare me." I want to find a clean place, okay? ”

"Oh, the Ye family is urging you to get married?"

Eighth Elder Brother smiled slightly: "They urged them, I, I have my own ideas." So you don't have a problem coming here at all. ”

The tenth elder brother was so happy that his face was full of flowers, he grabbed the ninth elder brother and said, "Let's come and live!" Just accompany the starlings! ”

Brother Nine was not as happy as his younger brother, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "But Brother Starling, if the Ye family finds out that you brought a stranger into the house, then ......"

"They won't be so fine-minded." Eighth Elder Brother smiled slightly, "Besides, this is my house, what's wrong with me bringing my younger brothers in to live?" ”

Only then did Brother Jiu relax his heart, and he also smiled: "Okay then." Before my house is renovated, let's bother with Starlings for a while. ”

Eighth Elder Brother looked at him, but his smile was a little bitter: "Lao Jiu, are you trying to have a relationship with me?" My own brother, what do you talk about and don't bother? ”

Brother Nine saw that he was sad, and hurriedly said, "Brother Starling, I didn't mean that. ”

"That's not what it means, then Ansheng lives here." Eighth Elder Brother said slowly, "The house on Fuhai Avenue, are you still taking out a loan?" You don't have to worry about this, I'll find someone to help you do it, and you don't have to worry about the decoration. ”

The problem that had been piled up in his mind and thinking about it day and night was suddenly solved by Bao Yuan, and Brother Jiu was stunned for a long time, he didn't know whether he was happy or surprised, and said with a dry smile: "Starling, this ......"

Brother Ten happily bumped him on the shoulder: "Brother Jiu, are you stupid!" Oh yes, starling! Brother Jiu, he plans to engage in e-commerce recently, you can help him! ”

Eighth Elder Brother laughed: "Really? I've been lobbied to invest in e-commerce lately, so why should I be cheaper than outsiders? Lao Jiu, what business do you want to do, tell me, let's do it together. ”

That day, they stayed late at the Eighth Brother's place.

The eighth elder brother told the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother how he escaped from danger that day, how he climbed the river embankment in a drowsy state, and how he was discovered by Ye Xun's mother.

“…… I was a fool the whole thing, and somehow she got me in the car and went straight to the hospital. The eighth elder brother pondered, and then continued, "When I woke up, she was crying in front of my hospital bed. and call me 'Ah Sun' or something, in that case, how can I have the strength to fight with her? She can only go. ”

The tenth elder brother looked at the eighth elder brother worriedly: "But the eighth brother, you are not Ye Xun after all, don't they see it?" ”

"How is that possible?" Eighth Elder Brother smiled, "Of course I can see it." But Ye Xun's mother loves her son very much, she just doesn't admit that her son is dead, since she so happened to save me from the river embankment, she decided that I was her son. I'm also happy to push the boat. Fortunately, the Ye family treated me well. ”

Brother Ten breathed a sigh of relief: "Call me to say, this is good!" The Ye family is rich and powerful, and the starling can enjoy happiness when he comes, not like when we first came over. It's miserable, the fourth brother and the ninth brother have to go out to work every day......"

Eighth Elder Brother glanced at him and smiled, "Really? The fourth brother also went out to work? ”

Brother Jiu heard that something was wrong, so he hurriedly stopped: "Okay, old ten, those Chen sesame seeds and rotten grains, what are you doing with it?" If you don't have money to spend, don't you have to go out to work? ”

Brother Ten nodded: "Now everyone is fine, even I am making money!" ”

Eighth Elder Brother sneered: "I know, I know, I know, famous illustrator." ”

Brother Ten was a little embarrassed: "I'm not that famous, I just earn some living expenses." The fourth brother is really capable. started out in poverty, didn't even have a diploma, and now he can become a supervisor! ”

Eighth Elder Brother smiled slightly and didn't make a sound.

"Oh yes. And the old thirteen! Do you know starlings? His father-in-law, Tarzan, is amazing! Officials worship the Admiral of the Land Route! ”

Eighth Elder Brother nodded: "Yes." Xuan Jingyao. The official position is quite high. In fact, he is just a watchdog of the Ye family. ”

As soon as he said this, the two looked at each other, and they were a little at a loss.

Eighth elder brother looks at them like this. Then he got up with a smile and said, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?" I asked them to send a few dishes, Lao Shi, what do you like to eat, order it yourself. ”

Brother Ten jumped up: "Okay! ”

After dinner that day, the servants chatted for a while, and Brother Jiu said that it was almost time to go back.

The eighth elder brother hurriedly said: "Why go back? There's a guest room upstairs, it's all packed, let's stay here tonight. ”

Brother Nine smiled and said, "Brother Starling, my things are still over there, and I still have things to do at hand, so I have to rush to work when I go back tonight." ”

Brother Ten also said: "Yes, my sketches and whatever, they are still piled up over there." Starling, we'll pack it up in two days and move in together. ”

When the eighth elder brother heard him say this, he had to nod his head, and told the ninth elder brother to be careful when driving at night, so he reluctantly sent them out.

They drove the Bugatti sent by the eighth elder brother, and along the way, for some reason, the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother did not speak.

drove the car back to the downstairs of Julia's community, parked the car, the ninth elder brother did not get out of the car in a hurry, and the tenth elder brother did not move.

It took a long time before Brother Jiu sighed: "Old Ten, do you really want to move to live with Starling?" ”

Brother Ten blinked and looked at the roof of the car: "I've said everything, I can't go if I don't go, right?" ”

There was silence again.

"Tell the fourth brother about this, the fourth brother will feel uncomfortable, right?" Brother Ten asked again.

Brother Nine snorted: "It's not that you talk too much!" Love to take care of things! ”

The tenth elder brother said aggrievedly: "How can you blame me for this? Believe it or not, even if I don't say a word, the starling will definitely ask us to live there! ”

Brother Jiu rubbed his eyebrows tiredly: "It stands to reason that it's not a bad thing, but I just ...... in my heart."

He stopped.

Brother Ten looked at him and muttered: "This is good, Brother Jiu, you don't have to worry about the mortgage, you don't have to worry about decoration, and you don't have to worry about finding investment, Brother Starling has covered everything for you." Aren't you happy? ”

Brother Jiu didn't speak.

In his heart, he was actually a little vaguely unhappy, although the mortgage decoration and other things were quite annoying, and he hated to throw them to others, but the eighth elder brother was so generous, and he took care of it all at once, and the ninth elder brother felt strange in his heart.

In the past few years, he has been used to being independent, and he handles everything by himself, even if he owes Yinzhen their affection, he must pay it back. Although it was troublesome to buy a house and decorate, it was all his own business, and he didn't feel that he couldn't afford this responsibility.

But now, let the eighth elder brother take over everything, the mortgage, decoration, and even the work...... Everything is related to the eighth elder brother, which makes him feel quite uncomfortable.

This is more complicated than the situation in the Qing Dynasty back then, but even in the Qing Dynasty, everyone has their own mansion, and the boundaries of each other's lives are very clear.

What's more, he is no longer the ninth elder brother of the Qing Dynasty.

He was pondering, but Brother Ten suddenly lowered his voice: "Brother Nine, do you think Brother Starling has changed a little?" ”

Brother Jiu turned his head to look at his younger brother in surprise: "Really?" Where has changed? ”

Brother Ten held his head in distress, he thought for a long time before he said, "I can't tell, I just feel like this......"

"And! Don't use your unreliable artistic inspiration! ”

"No! Brother Jiu, I really think something is wrong. The tenth elder brother argued, "I think the starling brother is ...... He looked uncomfortable. I don't think he is as comfortable in the Ye family as he says. ”

Brother Jiu was even more surprised: "The kind of family of the Ye family, is he still not comfortable?" We're all poor like this, and we don't feel uncomfortable, what's wrong with starling? ”

"I don't know." The tenth elder brother said depressedly, "Let me tell you Brother Nine, tonight, I have been feeling cold, I feel cold when I sit with the starling, I can't tell why...... But in the past, in Daqing, I went to the Starling Mansion so many times, even if I sat with him all day, I didn't feel cold! ”

"Hmph, that's because you're wearing less clothes tonight!"

"No, it's not! I...... I think Starling has a grudge in his heart. ”

Brother Jiu was stunned: "Resentment? Resentful of whom? We? ”

Brother Ten was like that, as if he was holding back his words: "Brother Jiu, have you thought about it?" We didn't know he was here until today, right? However, did the starling not know that we were here until today? ”

Brother Nine glanced at him: "What do you want to say?" ”

"I just want to say this: I think the starlings have already discovered us! If he knows we're here, why doesn't he come to us? And how long did he know? A week? One month? Julia has been enrolled in school for several months, and the fourth brother went to pick her up from school, not a hundred times, but eighty times! When did the starling know we were here? If the fourth brother didn't go to him for an interview today, wouldn't the starling brother plan to show up today? ”

Brother Jiu silently stared at the cement pillar in front of the car: "...... He didn't want to inform us. ”

"Hmm. He resented that we hadn't found him sooner, and that we had left him here alone for two or three years...... But we can't do it, who doesn't want to find him sooner! If we had met him here at the beginning, would we have suffered so much? ”

Brother Jiu didn't say anything.

Then, he said slowly: "So, is the Ye family really bad for Starling?" ”

"I don't know." Brother Ten shrank his body down, "Brother Starling seems to be hiding something from us. ”

"What are you hiding?"

Brother Nine heard Brother Ten squirming, as if he had taken something out of his pocket, he leaned over to take a look, and Brother Ten took out a small cardboard box from his pocket.

"What is it?" Brother Nine took it curiously, and seeing that it was a medicine box, he turned on the light above his head.

It is indeed a drug, it is a box of medicine that has been eaten, and the box reads: Rida (paliperidone extended-release tablets).

Brother Jiu frowned: "Where did you come from?" ”

"I saw it in the starling's study, in the paper basket." Brother Ten whispered, "I hid it in my pocket while he wasn't paying attention." ”

"What kind of medicine is this? What kind of disease is cured? ”

"I don't know, I'm afraid that the starling will find out, so I grabbed it and quickly put it in my pocket, and I didn't have time to look at it. Brother Jiu, take a look. ”

The two of them leaned under the lamp, pointed the instruction manual on the box at the light source, and read a few lines carefully.

"Functional indications: suitable for the treatment of the acute phase of schizophrenia, as well as for the apparent positive symptoms of various other psychotic states, such as hallucinations, delusions, ......"

Brother Ten couldn't read it anymore, and he was stupid!

Brother Jiu stared at the medicine box blankly, and he only felt that a bucket of ice water was poured on his head!

"Nine, Ninth Brother!" Brother Ten grabbed his hand and said in a trembling voice, "Brother Starling...... He's crazy! ”

(Author: To clarify, drugs like Rida are often used to improve some of the obvious symptoms, such as mild auditory hallucinations.) Therefore, not all people who take medicine are schizophrenic, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression, which can also be accompanied by auditory hallucinations. In fact, many patients have sound thinking and emotional stability, but they are troubled by some special symptoms) (to be continued. )
