120. [3-031] Chick's protest is invalid
The willow branches float gently in the breeze, the birds chirp and jump in the branches, and a clump of green bamboo grows vigorously in the corners, here, the whole is full of greenery, and behind you is a small patio, and from the window, there is the back window of the eldest brother's study, and in front of it is a masonry wall covered with morning glories.
It's a quiet and hidden place, although sometimes it is suspected of being guarded, but for Mengfan, after leaving the small village in her hometown, when she arrives here, the eldest brother is the person she is most familiar with.
As a little girl, she was supposed to be taken care of; No matter how modern a woman's mind she has in her heart, however, the women in this world, no matter how big or small, have a never-ending desire - someone to take care of her, no matter how noble and powerful the status of this woman is, there is always a soft place in her heart that needs to be cared for.
Seeing Helian Yutian personally help her carry the full basket, and looking at the place where it was simply and clean, Mengfan turned around and showed a soft smile on his little face: "Big brother, I have something to discuss with you." ”
Bao'er also recruited Uncle Sun, the old man said that he liked this pink and tender doll very much, and he had to take it to play around, but Bao'er had to follow Mengfan, Uncle Sun couldn't resist him, so he followed, the old and the young, squatted there when they arrived at the patio, studying how a bunch of ants on the side of the wall moved.
Hai Lao Liu followed the young master of his family and also came over, but after he put down the tray in his hand, he retreated to the side and stood far away, not following too closely.
Helian Yutian put the basket in his hand on the steps under the eaves outside the house, turned around, and motioned for her to bypass the corridor and cross the study together, and sat down face to face at a small table in the small courtyard outside the study: "Fanfan, the eldest brother also happens to have something to tell you." ”
"Well, then you talk first." Meng Fan slowly picked up the teapot and poured two cups of water in front of the two.
Helian Yutian stretched out his hand and picked it up to his lips, took a sip and put it down, he hesitated, pondered it for a while, and then spoke: "Originally, I was thinking that after taking you to Qingshui Town, I could become a disciple of the master with me, in this way, it is reasonable for the senior brother to take care of the junior sister, and outsiders can't say anything; But when you gave up the idea that day, I thought, "It would be absolutely inappropriate to let you live outside, for you are only that old," but if you were to stay with me, you would have to have a consideration of identity; So ......"
"So, big brother can claim that I'm just a fire girl you found out of town?"
Men and women are not seated at the age of seven, there are too many taboos in this world, even in modern times, after reaching the age of seven in school, talking a few more words to male classmates will be laughed at, not to mention such an ancient time and space where men are superior and women are inferior.
"Silly girl......" Helian Yutian snorted angrily: "You are deliberately misinterpreting the meaning of the eldest brother, right, that identity is just to make your parents and family feel at ease." ”
"Xie Lu, thank you for everything that Big Brother has done for me." Mengfan smiled faintly, sincere in his eyes, undisguised.
"Really? Then if I say ......" Helian Yutian pursed his lips halfway through speaking, his eyes were full of smiles, but he didn't finish the words at once, if he looked carefully, there was still a trace of uncertainty in his eyes, as if he was afraid of being rejected, seeing that Mengfan was still smiling at him, and did not say anything to urge, he didn't hesitate any longer: "I want to worship you as a brother and sister of the opposite sex in the way of the rivers and lakes, I don't know if you are willing?" ”
Playing sworn worship? Hehe, there are many such storylines in martial arts novels, most of them are under the starry sky and the moon, on the grass that is not sparse or dense, a table of incense is placed, and one person holds three incense sticks in his hand, as evidenced by the bright moon of heaven and earth...... Something like that.
It's a bit of an expectation just to think about.
Therefore, Mengfan nodded happily: "Okay, I wanted to have an older brother to take care of my ...... in my last life" Oops, it seems to have said something that shouldn't be said.
"Haha...... in the last life? You're only a little old......"
"Oh, what people mean is metaphor, don't you understand metaphor?" Mengfan was sloppy.
"Well, my master and his old man will go to Baohua Temple tomorrow to talk about Buddhism with Zen Master Jingxin, and when the time comes, you go with me, and we will worship as brothers and sisters in front of the Buddha in Baohua Temple, what do you think?"
"So grand?" Meng Fan was directly dumbfounded.
"Nature......" Helian Yutian smiled: "You don't want to enter the Qingfeng Temple, but in the end, you don't seem to hate monks, right?" ”
"I respect the Buddha and be compassionate, but the monk is ......, but if I can worship my brother as a brother and sister in front of the Buddha, this seems to be more sincere, then okay, I'll go."
There was also a trace of inexplicable sadness in Helian Yutian's happy smile, which he hid in the depths of his eyes and concealed it very well.
Suddenly, his voice lowered: "I hope that when you grow up, you will not forget." ”
"Five hundred times of looking back, there is an encounter in this life; With a noble son as a brother for nothing, it would be flattering to change any peasant girl, wouldn't it? ”
Meng Fan smiled with a hint of mystery: "In front of the Buddha, you can't be deceived, otherwise you will be thundered by the sky; Big brother, in the future, everyone who will regard you as a dear person wholeheartedly will never ......"
Her words were interrupted by the sudden appearance of a voice full of urgency: "Childe, don't! ”
Who is this?
It was so uninteresting, it was rare for her to express such emotional words once, and she was interrupted, and there was a hint of anger in her eyes, and she could hear who the person who spoke was without turning around.
"Xiaoyun? How did you get in? Who allowed you in? Uncle Sun......"
"Childe, Xiaoyun came in by herself, please don't be embarrassed for others, Xiaoyun just wants to say a few words and leave." This Xiaoyun was a little flustered at this time, she had never come here before, and she knew that not anyone could come to the study of Gongzi Dao, but it was the simple Chun'er who opened the door for her today, and she had only seen her coming, thinking that she would just wait there quietly for Gongzi to summon her, but she didn't expect it......
"Childe, how noble your status is, how can you condescend to worship with a little peasant girl with such a grand ceremony, Childe, you don't want to think about it, she is so humble and so small, why do you have to look for an opportunity to get acquainted with you regardless of the difference between men and women, it must have been premeditated, she just wants to get benefits from you......"
Xiao Yun said anxiously and quickly, seeing that Helian Yutian's face was getting deeper and deeper, Xiao Yun, who had always been a little inexplicably afraid of him, did not lower his voice at this time.
"Brother Yutian and my sister Fanfan, when will it be your turn to intervene?" Lan Bao'er stood up slowly in the corner of the wall, and waved her slap as if she were chasing flies: "Stay where it's cool." "This man is small, but he is very imposing.
When Meng Fan heard these words, she snorted coldly, turned around and glanced at the angry Xiaoyun, just one glance, she turned around, and picked up the water cup in front of her for a long time, the voice was neither loud nor small, everyone could hear: "Is this girl climbing high branches, it's your business......"
