When Shu Yan, who hurried over after hearing the news, saw it at first glance, and almost didn't recognize Zhong Daxuan, who had not had time to change out of the silver-edged plain brocade robe. This made Zhong Daxuan, who was already extremely uncomfortable because of this kind of dressing, more and more uncomfortable at the moment.

Shu Yan, who recognized Zhong Daxuan in just a moment, hurriedly asked Zhong Daxuan again and again: "Young Master Zhong, you can be counted as back!" When you left, didn't you say that you were going to the Cicada City to see the flowers bloom? How can you look at it as half a year? Where have you been all this time? Hey, why don't you see the young master? ”

Zhong Daxuan got up when he heard this, and did not answer any of the questions raised by Shu Yan, but drooped his shoulders and said to Shu Yan listlessly: "It's been a long time, Second Grandma Shu, I am relieved to see that you are very good." But I'm not very good, I'm tired, and I'm very tired, so I want to spend a night in Chunhelou here, I don't know if it's convenient? ”

"Convenient, of course convenient, Chunhelou has a spare house! It's just Zhong Gongzi, why do you want to live in the annex? Wouldn't it be nice to still live in Fish Tears? Shu Yan asked Zhong Daxuan again and again.

"Fish Tears Xuan, forget it, living there will only add to my fatigue, I'd better live in the annex." Zhong Daxuan responded weakly to Shu Yandao.

Zhong Daxuan said, ignoring Shu Yan's confusion, and walked impatiently towards the annex.

At this moment, Zhong Daxuan's heart was at a loss, and his head was empty and there were no complicated thoughts. He just wanted to collapse on a random bed in Chunhelou as soon as possible, and sleep simply and steadily; In other words, if he could get a good night's sleep without bothering others, he would really want to lie on the ground immediately. Because he was so powerless, he couldn't support everything, even his own body.

The next day, the seventeenth year of Kunqian, February 11.

In the Heavenly Empire's Fuling City, on Jinhong Street, in the annex of Shuixin Fort, Zhong Daxuan, who had struggled to fall asleep all night, got up in a daze at the middle of the day. Under Shu Yan's repeated requests and supervision, he barely took a few sips of morning tea.

After having morning tea, Shu Yan and Zhong Daxuan were sitting idly on the Bibo Pavilion in the backyard of the main house of Shuixin Castle at this moment, drinking tea and talking.

After a while, Zhong Daxuan, who had recovered a little bit of energy, was about to apologize to Shu Yan for his impatient words and deeds last night and explained: "Second Grandma Shu ......"

As soon as Zhong Daxuan spoke, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Shu Yan, only to hear Shu Yan correct Zhong Daxuan and say: "Zhong Gongzi, I saw that you were not in a good state last night, so I didn't correct you in time, I am no longer the second grandmother of this Jinhong Shuixin Baili family, and the second master has already revealed the letter of resignation to everyone in Jinhong Shuixin Castle, so you don't call me 'Second Grandma Shu' in the future." ”

"Why? Good and decent, why did he divorce you? Zhong Daxuan asked Shu Yan puzzled.

"Because from the day we got married, my second master and I were a fake couple in name only! I didn't dare to shout it before, but now I don't have to hide it. As for the reason, you don't need to be too clear about Zhong Gongzi, you just have to congratulate me on this. Shu Yan responded truthfully to Zhong Daxuan.

Zhong Daxuan, who didn't know what to call Shu Yan for a while, asked Shu Yan bluntly in surprise: "You don't mean yes, let me congratulate you on your dismissal, right?" ”

"How could it not? Zhong Gongzi, I just asked you to congratulate me on this matter! Shu Yan responded to Zhong Daxuan with a smile.

Although Zhong Daxuan was still confused at this moment, he still obeyed Shu Yan's meaning and said to Shu Yan: "Congratulations, Master Shu, I should not be wrong if I call you so!" ”

When Shu Yan heard this, he couldn't help but smile, and said to Zhong Daxuan: "There will be no mistake, Zhong Gongzi, thank you for your congratulations!" ”

After being stiffly corrected by Shu Yan, Zhong Daxuan urgently apologized to Shu Yan again for his impatient words and deeds last night and explained: "You must not thank me, Master Shu, it should be me who apologizes to you." I've been in a hurry for the past few days, and I'm so tired that my mind is even more chaotic, so that there are many inappropriate things in my words and deeds last night. ”

"Zhong Gongzi, look at what you said, don't say that there is nothing wrong with your words and deeds yesterday; Even if there were, I wouldn't have taken it to heart. Shu Yan said generously to Zhong Daxuan.

"If that's the case, then I'm relieved." Zhong Daxuan said to Shu Yan.

"Young Master Zhong, where have you and the young master gone for half a year? Where is he, young master, now? Shu Yan asked Zhong Daxuan again about her last night's question.

"That's right, Master Shu, on the day of Chongyang last year, after we left Shezi Yizhuang, I followed Yu Yin to his original home to stay temporarily. And this time, I came back alone; As for Yu Yin, he is still in his original home. Zhong Daxuan replied one by one.

Zhong Daxuan said that he came back alone.

Return, where to use "back"? Your own home, your own home!

From this, you can fully feel that in Zhong Daxuan's heart and in Zhong Daxuan's subconscious, he has already regarded Jinhong Water Heart Fort as his home, his home.

"I see, no wonder you haven't returned!" Shu Yan suddenly realized.

Shu Yan said, no wonder you haven't returned for a long time.

Return, where to use "return"? Your home, your home!

From this, you can fully feel that in Shu Yan's heart, in Shu Yan's subconscious, she has long regarded Yu Yin and Zhong Daxuan as her family.

Shu Yan saw that Zhong Daxuan just poured tea into his mouth with a sullen face, and did not take the initiative to talk to her, so she speculated and asked Zhong Daxuan: "Zhong Gongzi, from the time you entered the door yesterday to the present, you have always looked preoccupied, and the young master did not come back with you for the first time, could it be that you quarreled?" Or are you not used to living in the young master's original home? ”

Hearing Shu Yan's point-to-point question, Zhong Daxuan couldn't stop opening the conversation to Shu Yan: "Aren't you used to it?" Master Shu, do you know that in the nearly 100 days I have lived in Yu Yin's original home, I have felt for the first time that the distance between me and Yu Yin is so far away, so far that it is not only the distance between birds and fish, but also the distance between clouds and gravel. You never know when the wind will pick up to sweep the sand into the clouds; You never know when it will rain to melt the tears contained in the clouds into the sand. ”

When Shu Yan heard this, he questioned Zhong Daxuan again and again: "So what? Zhong Gongzi, that's why you ran back alone, right? That's why you left the young master and him there, didn't you? ”

"Master Shu, even if I ran back alone in a bad mood, then you can't say that I left him there! You know, it's his home! Or maybe that's the only place where he lives! Zhong Daxuan defended himself.

"Zhong Gongzi, you are wrong." Shu Yan pointed out to Zhong Daxuan bluntly.

"Am I wrong? Where did I go wrong? Master Shu. Zhong Daxuan asked Shu Yan again and again.

"Zhong Gongzi, where are you wrong, don't you know better than me? You know, where is your Zhong Daxuan, where is his Yu Yin's home! is like what the young master often said, 'Relatives are not necessarily family, in other words, even if they are not related by blood and the same clan, they may become a family'. Shu Yan responded to Zhong Daxuan with the finishing touch.

"Master Shu, before, I did think the same way; But now, I don't dare to think so, and I even feel ridiculous that I have thought so before. Of course, I'm not saying that your ideas are ridiculous, I just feel that I have completely lost the ability to figure out Yu Yin's thoughts. Zhong Daxuan said to Shu Yan.

"Zhong Gongzi, you are wrong again." Shu Yan pointed out to Zhong Daxuan again.

"Am I wrong again? What did I do wrong this time? Master Shu. Zhong Daxuan asked Shu Yan in confusion.

"Zhong Gongzi, you are wrong, if you want to treat someone sincerely, then don't try to figure out his thoughts, but try to feel his mood." Shu Yan replied meaningfully.

When Zhong Daxuan heard this, he unconsciously closed his eyes, and then fell into the faint fragments in his mind, and fell into the faintly visible voice and smile of Yu Yin in the past, and he was trying to feel Yu Yin's mood from his memories.

After a moment of contemplation, Zhong Daxuan opened his eyes, and in the hazy vision, he said to Shu Yan, who was waiting quietly on the stool on the side: "Master Shu, can you imagine it?" With his status, how hard do I have to work to match it? What's more, many destined distances can not be shortened or shortened by acquired efforts. I think that in this situation where the distance cannot be narrowed, the only solution is to ignore it; But that's not something that everyone can do, just like me, I was confident about it, but in the end, I still lost at the feet of reality. ”

The worries in Zhong Daxuan's heart that were always difficult to eliminate interfered with his personal experience of Yu Yin's mood all the time.

"Zhong Gongzi, originally I also believed that as long as we insist on each other, have love in our hearts, and always think of each other, we can cross all gaps and eradicate all obstacles; But reality ruthlessly tells me, 'You're wrong.'" You know, there are many things that you can't solve with what you believe in. A lot of friendship is not something you can maintain by persevering; But we can still have dreams, we can still dream, we can still make dreams come true, as long as you have the heart, as long as you are willing to put your heart into it. Shu Yan said categorically to Zhong Daxuan.
