When Zhou Shen and Gao Wei quietly left Yuhuaju, Man Yun knew, but didn't care.

Ten-year-old Zhou Shen can be regarded as a half-old man, and it is natural for him to greet his cousin who came from afar to visit the Zhou Mansion.

Man Yun, who was sitting on the soft couch, was fascinated by the book.

In the past two years, she has made some progress in learning poison and martial arts, and she has to take advantage of her brothers' classes to gain more knowledge. Most of the poems, books and articles are still supported by the foundation laid by the Gao family in the previous life, and the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the female red needlework are also squandering what they have learned in the old days. Even if she is reborn, she is not a prodigy, her energy is limited, and she can only take care of one side, so she can only mix in the middle of the group of brothers and sisters.

There is no shortage of seeds for reading in the Zhou family! Sighing lightly for the lack of progress in his two lives, Man Yun sank his heart even more, determined to use this rare and leisurely time to read a thin book of poems in his hand.

Xiaoxuan's window is half open, and you can only see the top of the girl's crow's feather-like hair through the window, and the faint sunlight is quietly sprinkled, as if it is warm and soft like velvet, and it is warm to the touch.

"The sixth sister looks very quiet, she likes to read?" , When the courtyard gate of Yuhuaju was left far behind, Gao Wei lowered his head and asked Zhou Shen. I haven't seen him for two or three years, and the little girl who recognized him at the beginning was even more like a stranger, quiet and introverted, but it was also in line with the upright and graceful lady of a scholarly family.

"yes!" , Zhou Shen, who was constantly reciting words back and forth in his mind, listened to it and responded without hearing it.

Bypassing a section of the corridor, the hanging flower arch of the Huanxiang Temple jumps in front of you.

Huanxiangyuan was originally located in the northeast corner of the Zhou Mansion, and it was originally built as a large guest house with its own garden. In the courtyard, Fangxi water was led into the canal and a rockery was lit. It is also decorated with a flower gallery because of the large space. There are also many houses, and it was only when Zhou Jianan returned to the south that he picked up the Huanxiang Courtyard to live in the second room with the largest population.

Later. The old man ordered the garden to be locked, and the Gao family, Zhou Shen and the children of the second room all moved out, and the Huanxiang Courtyard was only half lively.

The excitement was only reduced by half, because Gao, Zhou Shen and others moved out, but after checking the maids of the Zhou Mansion, they sent five or six of them that Zhou Bai had used in the Huanxiang Courtyard. Probably out of uncertainty about walking out of the Zhou Mansion after the festival, there were only two or three women who went home with the dowry silver issued by Zhou Xian.

After the New Year, Zhou Shen will be eleven years old.

The elder brother in the family, as well as the veterans of the Du family who usually instruct him in kung fu, occasionally make some jokes. is not like the previous two years to deliberately avoid him, Zhou Shenyue figured out some of the situation of the Huanxiang Courtyard, and felt that as long as he stood in front of the door of the Huanxiang Courtyard, it would be even more embarrassing.

"Brother Shen, try! Otherwise, my aunt will find out and arrest us, and it will be too late! Gao Wei whispered.

Gao Wei, who grew up under his father's serious but careful concern since he was a child, really regretted that his cousin didn't have his biological father by his side to discipline him, and felt that if he could regain his uncle's fatherly heart. It's a great thing. It is right for my aunt to break up the relationship between husband and wife, but it can't be separated from the love between Zhou Bai's father and son.

"Hmm!" , Zhou Shen nodded, plucked up the courage and knocked on the knocker vigorously.

Wait for Zhou Shen to knock it twice. The door of the Huanxiang Courtyard slowly opened a crack, and the two rough mothers-in-law stood on the side of the crack one after the other, and looked out of the door with cold eyes. Wait to see Zhou Shen standing at the door. Only then did he smirkedly open half of the fan.

"It turned out to be Brother Shen? Come and say hello to the second master, right? Why don't you go back first? I'll come back tomorrow ......", the mother-in-law who answered the call was swollen and tall. Slurred speech.

Because Zhou Bai broke out of the house again in the morning, the mothers-in-law who guarded the door in the courtyard had just been punished by the big housekeeper Zhou Guihe and slapped each other a few times. If it weren't for the high wages they received to guard the gates of the Huanxiang Temple, they would not have been willing to risk being beaten two or three times a year to do this work.

Zhou Shen took a step forward, his eyes burning and full of determination.

The two mothers-in-law glanced at each other, and at the same time took a step back and let Zhou Shen in.

"This is the young master of the Gao family, right? Can you just sit outside and wait? Gao Wei, who followed Zhou Shen into the gate of Huanxiang Courtyard, was immediately enthusiastically let by a mother-in-law to an east room by the gate.

"Except for a few of our gatekeepers in the courtyard, they are all from the second master......"

"Ahem!" , Gao Wei blushed in embarrassment, coughed slightly, and shouted at Zhou Shen's back: "Brother Shen, I'll be waiting for you here." ”

Pinching the hot tea offered by his mother-in-law, a faint mist hit Gao Wei's face, which made him feel his cheeks feverish, and he regretted that he didn't say hello to his aunt, so he took his cousin to Huanxiangyuan to beg his father to change.

Although Gao Wei is not yet an adult, he has a clear mind, and he reads the scriptures of the serious scientific examination well, and he has also read some of the barnyard stories in the market. As soon as the mother-in-law was a little bit, he understood the meaning of the phrase "the second master's person", his uncle Zhou Xian was originally dropped in the pile of flowers in the Huanxiang Courtyard, and he was scattered, who knew how ridiculous it would be to cross the second door. He was originally a foreigner of the Zhou family, even if the Zhou and Gao families had a good family, according to his age, in some places, he really couldn't step on half a step.

Sitting in the outermost room, which was simple and cold to the point of extreme snow cave, the voice of the woman on the other end of the courtyard wall was faintly heard outside the window, and Gao Wei's eyes stared at the ups and downs of the tea stalks in the tea bowl, and he was distracted.

The small window of the Yuhuaju that I left just now was sparse, and the hibiscus under the window was blooming, and the bright red petals stretched and stuck to the girl's occasional soft and glutinous and somewhat calm chanting sound......

Gently turning the white porcelain cup in his hand, Gao Wei couldn't help but think that before setting off from Yunzhou to Huocheng, his father explained in a serious way that his first priority was to follow the grandfather of the Zhou family to learn from him and be a man.

But his mother told him in private, and now the court is gradually showing the trend of pressing the north from the south, although his father is an official and impartial, but after all, the Gao family was born in Jiangnan, and the future eldest sister-in-law has decided to be the daughter of the Yang family of the Hanlin Academy, so it is best for him to marry a Shuyuan who was born in Jiangnan in the future.

If what the mother said was true, the father arranged for him to go to the Zhou family to study with the Zhou family's grandfather. So there should be something else interesting about it, right?

Gao Wei thought about it carefully, the tribulation covenant that the fifth uncle of the Zhou family joked about when he was in Luojing in his childhood, and the great gift that his father made when he bid farewell to Uncle Friday's spiritual position...... I couldn't help but put a faint blush on my face.

"Will the parents' favorite candidate be Sister Yun'er? She's still so young! Also...... It's not small. If it is according to what my father said at the beginning, I will stay in Huocheng for three or five years. Then she's just in time! The sudden thought knocked on Gao Wei's heart. The more he calculated, the more he felt that the marriage partner that the elders intended to arrange would be Man Yun.

"Like a bed trying a new sample, the delicate clouds are warm and ......warm in the spring tent", the young man who stayed in the Huanxiang Courtyard for nearly a pillar of incense, the poems memorized in his mind immediately became messy.

"Help! Help me! Save ......", a series of shrill cries came from far and near accompanied by the sound of chaotic footsteps.

Gao Wei shook his head and rushed out of the door, and before he could ask his mother-in-law, who was also flustered, a ball of soft and fragrant white meat rushed straight into his arms.

The one who pulled Gao Wei's shirt was a woman about his height. Holding the woman's hair in a bun, the half-torn dress is the azure color of an ordinary maid in the Zhou Mansion, the rose-colored wrapping chest is tied with towering two balls, and the arm holding Gao Wei is bare. If it weren't for the tears on his face, it would be quite beautiful and moving.

Gao Wei subconsciously closed his eyes, and when he heard the words of the woman's mouth vaguely, he stomped his feet and rushed straight to the inner courtyard.

The mothers-in-law who stayed in the outer courtyard were also frightened, and their mouths were filled with the letter they had just heard. He hurriedly parted his head and ran towards the inner courtyard and the courtyards of the Zhou Mansion.

"The second master is crazy again! I'm about to kill Brother Shen! ”

One after another, shouts instantly filled the sky above Zhou's house.

Even rushed through Gao Wei, who had entered the courtyard twice, and was guided by a few frightened women who fled in all directions. Next to a standing stone inscribed "Huanxiang", I saw Zhou Bai who was only wearing a pair of obscene pants and was naked, he was holding Zhou Shen's collar tightly with one hand, and he kept slapping down with the other.

Xiao Zhou Shen, who was beaten violently, was red. A tube of nosebleeds ran to the edge of the upper lip.

As if someone from a distance drank and stopped the sound of Zhou Bai's emotions even more, he picked up his son's body and walked towards the stream beside him. Suddenly, he pressed Zhou Shen's head towards the cold water.

Huanxiang Courtyard is named Huanxiang precisely because the main scenery here is the Huanxiang Canal from Fangxi.

"Stop!". Gao Wei, who had already rushed to the side, mourned in his heart, touched a stone on the side of the road, and smashed it at Zhou Bai's front door.

Zhou Bai, who let go of Zhou Shen, glared at Gao Wei fiercely, and rushed violently, arching Gao Wei's chest.

The little boy's thin body slapped into the Huanxiang canal.

"Cousin! You ......", it was Zhou Shen who was planted in the canal first, and he was not in a good state, and his little face was bloody. It's just a blessing that only looks at the canal water, and it doesn't give a small life.

Gao Wei shook his head sadly, supported Zhou Shen's body, and sent him ashore first.

"Daddy!" , Zhou Shen called out again sadly, and firmly hugged Zhou Bai's legs.

"Uncle! You can see clearly that this is Zhou Shen, your sister-in-law! Are you so determined to beat him to death? Gao Wei, who was like a soup chicken, also rushed over and blocked Zhou Bai's fist that was about to hit Zhou Shen again.

The sound of the canal was rattling, and only Zhou Bai was standing alone on the side of the big stone, Zhou Shen and Gao Wei knelt in front of him left and right, and I burst into tears when you said a word, begging him to come to his senses.

This is what the people who hurried to see were like this.

Zhou Xian waved his hand, making people pull the Gao clan, who was already shocked and just wanted to pounce on his son, and only took Man Yun step by step towards the stream where the three of them stayed.

"Sister Yun! Do you think your second uncle is so crazy that he wants to kill his own son? Zhou Xian sighed softly and asked Man Yun, who was acting as his crutch.

Most of the flowers and trees in autumn are full of fresh air, and the side of the Huanxiang Canal is less fat powder in the past, and it is also exceptionally fresh. Man Yun, like Yinzi, didn't smell the heavy gold and stone medicine.

After the second uncle was arrested, the master gave him Su Qiao, although it could not detoxify it, but it could calm his emotions quickly. Even if he dissipates again, the seizures should not be so fast and so violent! Knowing that it would break his grandfather's heart, Manyun still told the truth. At the very least, if you want to kill people really crazy, hitting the heads of two teenagers directly on the Huanxiang Stone will save more effort than throwing them into the canal.

"Then I'll see, what do you want to do when Lao Tzu pretends to be crazy to kill his son and lure the old man here!" , Zhou Xian walked forward steadily, covered in frost. (To be continued......)
