The population of Yefu is simple, and the masters are Ye Qingyuan, Ye Jinqing, and Shen Li. With the addition of slaves, there are only a dozen people. Ye Qingyuan's family didn't like to spend the birthday banquet with the outsider, but on Ye Jinqing's sixth birthday, two tables were set up, one for the master and one for the next.

The Ye family of three sat at one table, and they didn't ask anyone to serve them, so they all sent them down to eat at another table.

Because when she went to the study in the afternoon, Ye Jinqing was interrupted by her mother before she could find out what the birthday gift was, and Ye Jinqing was looking forward to this birthday gift at this moment.

As soon as he sat down, Ye Qingyuan opened his mouth and said.

"Jin'er, you don't always shout that other people have brothers and sisters, but you are alone."

Ye Jinqing's eyes involuntarily glanced at his mother's flat lower abdomen, and thought to himself, people are envious of others having brothers, but they don't want a small tail to follow. Thinking of this, Ye Jinqing suddenly felt a little bored.

"Cheng'er, come in."

As soon as Ye Qingyuan finished speaking, Ye Jinqing saw a young man walk in from outside the arc-shaped moon gate, and he was about twelve years old. At first glance, I thought that the young man's face was very delicate, but when I looked closely, the young man seemed to be a sword in the sheath, restrained and sharp.

The boy stood still at the table, his arms raised above his head, and slammed down.

"Righteous son Ye Jincheng, meet your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Shen Li hurriedly got up and helped Ye Jincheng up: "Today is not only your sister's birthday, but also the day you come to my Ye family, my mother and I don't have anything good." ”

Shen Li took out a pair of jade pendants from his sleeve, even in the night, only the faint candlelight and moonlight were reflected, and the pair of jade pendants still looked crystal clear, with halos circulating from time to time.

"This pair of jade pendants will be distributed to the two of you, remember, although you are not brothers and sisters, but the most rare thing about this time is fate, this fate will send you together and become brothers and sisters. May you all cherish this fate. ”

After speaking, they hung the jade pendant on the necks of the two of them. Ye Jinqing saw it clearly, the jade pendants of the two were exactly the same, and they were both engraved with the word "An".

Mothers in the world are almost the same, and they just want their children to be safe.

With the jade pendant, Ye Jinqing and Ye Jincheng greeted each other and entered the table again. During the banquet, Ye Jinqing didn't take the opportunity to look at Ye Jincheng beside her, her brother. Although she was precocious, she was still a child after all, and she suddenly had a brother who she missed, and her expression was full of joy.

Ye Qingyuan took in Ye Jinqing's small movements and didn't say anything. Jin'er is still pleased with Cheng'er's natural closeness. Ye Jincheng is actually the son of an old friend of Ye Qingyuan, Ye Qingyuan can't bear to see him wandering alone, and now this can be regarded as an explanation to the old man.

The night is as cool as water, leaving a bright moon in the sky, and there is silence all around, but there are still sleepless people tossing and turning.

Ye Jinqing was lying on the bed with her eyes open. One moment staring at the curtains and smirking, the next time he got into the bed and rolled all over the bed.

In the Great Yuan Kingdom, the concept of having many sons and blessings is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Every family, whether it is as wealthy as those big families or ordinary people who run for life every day, every household is a group of children. And like Ye Qingyuan, there is only one daughter under his knees and no concubines, and there are very few.

In a situation like this, if you put it in other people's homes, those elders and clan relatives will definitely stuff a few people over in order to prosper their children. But in this Jinyang City, Ye Qingyuan has no elders, no clan relatives next to him, and no one else can control him. As for Ye Qingyuan, he was also happy to follow his heart and guard Shen Li alone. This has to be said, and it is also Shen Li's blessing.

Tossing and turning, Ye Jinqing simply got up in his clothes, bypassed Wu'er, who was sleeping next to his feet, opened the door lightly, and walked out.

Fortunately, the moon is very bright tonight, and the dust that shines on the ground will appear.

Ye Jinqing didn't know what his mood was, he seemed excited, happy, and hesitant, so he came to Songtao Courtyard, the courtyard where Ye Jincheng lived.

Ye Jincheng hadn't fallen asleep at all, not to mention that he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he had wandered outside alone, even if he fell asleep at night, he was still more alert than ordinary people.

Yes, when Ye Jinqing first stepped into Songtao Courtyard, he heard movement. I thought it was a little girl who was keeping vigil, so I didn't pay much attention to it. But the footsteps were pacing back and forth in his doorway.

At that moment, Ye Jincheng got up and wanted to find out.

On the other side, Ye Jinqing arrived at the door, but he didn't dare to knock on the door, hesitated for a while, and stood on tiptoe. I wanted to see through the gap in the door whether the people in the room were asleep.

But at this moment, the door suddenly opened from the inside, startling Ye Jinqing.

This is the first time that Ye Jincheng has looked at Ye Jinqing so closely, and the distance between the two is only a punch. Looking at the soft little person in front of him, although there was no frightened expression on his face, his eyes were moist from fright.

At this moment, Ye Jincheng's heart suddenly felt swollen and astringent, as if something was about to break out of the cocoon, which felt like a duckweed, which was suddenly redeemed after drifting with the tide for a long time.

He lifted the hand that had been placed at his side and gently placed it on the little man's head. The little man is so small, so fragile, even the hair is soft. stroked Ye Jinqing's head a few times, as if she wanted to use this action to dispel the uneasiness in her heart.

Ye Jinqing felt the warm young man's hand on his head, and couldn't help but rub it coquettishly. The young man's body froze, he didn't expect the villain to make such an intimate action.

The hand on his head suddenly stiffened, Ye Jinqing couldn't help but raise his head, but the young man crashed into a pair of black pupils at this moment, and confusion flashed in Ye Jincheng's eyes.

"Brother."

The sweet and soft voice that belongs to the girl dissolves the confusion in the young man's eyes, and the warmth ripples in the young man's eyes.

Ye Jincheng took off the coat he had just put on, squatted down, and wrapped Ye Jinqing tightly with his coat.

Twelve-year-old Ye Jincheng hugged six-year-old Ye Jinqing and walked towards Yue Ranxuan.

Walking to the gate of Yue Ran Xuan's courtyard, Ye Jincheng felt that the person in his arms tugged at his sleeve, Ye Jincheng looked down at Ye Jinqing in his arms, and put her down knowingly.

After Ye Jinqing stood still, he took off the wide coat wrapped around him and handed it to Ye Jincheng. Then, he saluted as if he were in a similar manner.

"Big brother, Ann."

After finishing speaking, he raised his head again, smiled at Ye Jincheng coquettishly, tiptoed his hands and feet, and ran carefully to the house.

Until many years later, Ye Jincheng still remembered that night, because on that night, he finally found his place after wandering alone for a long time.

Sometimes he also thought that if Jin'er didn't run to his courtyard in the middle of the night without a whim, and he didn't get up to check without a thought, would their relationship stop there, just like those ordinary brothers and sisters, familiar but not intimate.

Fortunately, Jin'er came, and he also opened the door, and this fate was caught by both of them, although there is no blood relative, but these are insignificant.
