CHAPTER XIV

Partial hall.

Shen Qing walked around the hall. Shen Feng slowly sipped the tea.

Gao Lingyu sat in her seat, eating dim sum from the beginning to now, and now she doesn't eat anything.

"Big brother, don't walk around, okay. I'm dizzy. Shen Feng said to Shen Qing.

"You said the sun was going down, and they had been in for a few hours, so why haven't they finished talking yet." Shen Qing walked up to Shen Feng with an arrow step and said.

Shen Feng looked at Shen Qing's anxious appearance, and smiled bitterly in his heart, the eldest brother can be so anxious when he meets the younger sister, he doesn't say it on the surface, but he is also anxious in his heart, this is indeed too long.

"Big brother, second brother, little Yu'er." Suddenly, there was a crisp sound at the door.

The three of them immediately turned their heads.

"Nian'er." Shen Qing looked at Shen Nian with a smile, Shen Feng put down the teacup in his hand and didn't say anything, but if you look closely, you can find that her eyes are calmer than before. Gao Lingyu jumped directly from the stool, "Sister Fairy." ”

I saw Shen Nian and Li Jushi coming in from outside, although the age difference between the two was a lot, but now the two of them stood together, like friends.

"Haha, it's all to blame for the old decay, and I forgot the time when I talked to Xiaoyou." Li Jushi looked at the reactions of the three of them, especially Shen Qing and Shen Feng, and had to say that the Shen family's family style was really good.

"Li Lao." The three of them saluted Li Jushi.

"Haha, now that I have become confidants with Shen Nianxiaoyou, as her relatives and friends, there is no need for you to see each other like this." Li Jushi's eyes narrowed with laughter.

"Elder Li, it's not early, then I'll go back first." Shen Nian said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll have you sent back."

"No, we have a carriage."

"Okay, little friend, you have to come often." Li Jushi repeated it over and over again to Shen Nian.

"Okay, don't worry." Shen Nian nodded, and Shen Nian also respected and appreciated this little naughty old man in his heart.

Li Jushi sent the four of them to the gate.

"Elder Li, go back quickly, it's cold now." Shen Nian said to Li Jushi.

"Good. Be careful on your way. Li Jushi said with a smile.

Shen Nian was the last to get into the car, and several people bowed their hands to Li Jushi.

Li Jushi looked at the carriage in the distance and smiled, laughing deeply. To be precise, I have lived to this age, and my former confidants and friends have either left, or now I think differently and never contact each other again. I don't have the mentality of living well for a long time, and now I just have to get by, but now the appearance of Shen Nian has made me have a confidant again, and I have rekindled my hope for life.

"Let's go back." Li Jushi said, and his steps were brisker than before.

Yu Yin bowed his head: "Yes." ”

Yu Yin glanced in the direction of the carriage's departure, and then at the teacher. In the past few years, I have also known the state of the teacher, and now that I see the teacher regain hope, I have no respect and gratitude for Shen Nian in my heart.

Carriage.

"Nian'er, how do you feel today?" Shen Feng asked.

"Elder Li is a very good friend." As soon as Shen Nian returned to his family, he automatically became a child in need of care.

"If you don't come out again, I'm afraid my eldest brother will have to demolish the house." Shen Feng said jokingly.

Shen Qing rubbed Shen Nian's head, "Nian'er, you just came back, big brother just." ”

Shen Nian put his head on Shen Qing's shoulder, hugged Shen Qing's arm, and said softly, "Big brother, I understand." "Now the Eastern Dynasties seem to be peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, but they are all illusions, the wars in the past few years, the changes in power in the past few years, and there are too many people with ill intentions. Shen Nian knew from the moment he went down the mountain that the situation in this world had changed.

A secret room somewhere in the capital.

"Lord Wang, Miss Shen San has already gone back in the carriage." A man dressed in black half-knelt on the ground and respectfully prayed.

"Yes." I saw a person sitting behind the table in front of him, and I saw that although the person was just sitting casually, he was domineering, yes, this person was Gao Lingyan.

Hearing the report of his subordinates, Gao Lingyan looked at the portrait in his hand gently.

"Keep protecting."

"Yes." With that, the man in black disappeared in place.

"Nian'er." Gao Lingyan smiled at the corner of his lips.

Shen Nian and the four of them returned to the house, and as soon as they entered the living room, they saw Shen Xing and Mei Shang sitting on the main seat, and Shen Nian stuck out his tongue at Shen Qing and Shen Feng.

The four of them stepped forward to say goodbye.

"I still know how to come back." Shen Xing spoke in a deep voice.

Shen Nian touched his nose, according to experience, it is not appropriate for him to speak at this time, like this situation, it depends on the eldest brother and the second brother. didn't know that Shen Feng had the same thought in his heart at this time. Shen Qing had a headache when he saw the two of them bowing their heads and behaving obediently.

"Father." Shen Qing saluted and said.

"Now that Nian'er has just come back, you will bring her back so late." Mei Shang said anxiously without waiting for Shen Xing to speak.

"Mother." Shen Nian saw that Shen Qing couldn't resist, so he hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Mei Shang's arm to be coquettish.

"Don't blame the eldest brother and the second brother." Shen Nian then told Shen Xing and Mei Shang about today's events.

After listening to Shen Nian's words, not only Mei Shang, but even Shen Xing was also shocked. In this capital, in this Eastern Dynasty, and even in the entire continent, who dares not to know the name of Li Jushi and Li Lao, it can be said that Li Lao is the god in the hearts of the students in the whole continent, and now Nian'er and Li Lao have such a personal relationship, which is very helpful to Shen Nian's future.

"Nian'er is amazing." Mei Shang touched Shen Nian's head, and at the same time did not forget to advise: "After all, Elder Li is a prestigious person, and Nian'er must pay attention to his words and deeds when intersecting with him. ”

"Got it, mother." Shen Nian hugged Mei Shang's arm and rubbed it, "Mother, I'm so hungry." ”

"Yes, yes, let's eat, we can't starve our little darling." Mei Shang said as he pulled Shen Nian to the dining room. Passing by Shen Qing's side, Shen Nian grimaced at Shen Qing.

Sure enough, Nian'er was able to subdue her mother.

Night, room.

Shen Nian, Mei Shang and the others came back after eating, closed the door, as if closing the outside world, and Shen Nian hid the smile on the corner of his mouth. Suddenly, Shen Nian's ears moved.

"Knock knock." There was a knock at the door.

"Who?" Shen Nian asked.

"Nian'er, it's me." It's none other than Gao Lingyan, who has just finished dealing with things.

"Brother Yan." Shen Nian happily ran over to open the door.

Shen Nian opened the door and looked at the handsome young man outside, smiling like a flower.

"Nian'er, can I go in?" Gao Lingyan asked.

Although it is not appropriate to enter the women's boudoir in the middle of the night, Shen Nian is half a child of the rivers and lakes no matter how he says it, so he naturally doesn't care.

"Well, Brother Yan come in." Shen Nian happily turned to the side.

Gao Lingyan entered the room and sat on a chair.

"What did Brother Yan do today?" Shen Nian sat opposite Gao Lingyan and asked.

"Brother Yan is going to clean up the dirt." Gao Lingyan wanted to touch Shen Nian's head when he saw Shen Nian's stunned appearance, and he did it, well, it feels so good.

"Brother Nayan, if you need help, just look for me." Shen Nian did not reject Gao Lingyan from touching her head, but she still blushed slightly.

"Okay, if it's useful to Nian'er, I'll definitely ask for help." Gao Lingyan looked doting.

Both of them are smart people, and there are some things that don't need to be said explicitly, just the other party can understand, and Shen Nian and Gao Lingyan both believe that the other party is a person who understands him.

"I heard that Nian'er is here today, but it is a big limelight."

"Brother Yan knows." Although Shen Nian said so, he also knew in his heart that this was normal, not to mention how big this matter was, it was Gao Lingyan's status, and there shouldn't be anything he didn't know about in the capital.

"I didn't expect Nian'er to be so powerful and be able to make friends with Li Lao, but I spent a lot of effort but didn't succeed."

"Brother Yan wanted to befriend Li Lao at the beginning?"

"Yes, because Li Lao's reputation and status are very high, it is very beneficial to make friends. But his character has not diminished for many years, and he is also a role model for my generation. ”

"Yes, when I talked to Li Lao today, I really felt different." Shen Nian was thoughtful.

"By the way, Brother Yan, how about I play a song for you?" Shen Nian said suddenly.

"Okay." Gao Lingyan naturally can't apply for a job.

Shen Nian sat down behind the piano table, his hands were lightly raised, and the strings moved slightly, like ripples on the water surface, which made people feel calm.

Gao Lingyan closed his eyes, felt the true meaning of the music, and relaxed. In fact, Shen Nian just saw that although Gao Lingyan was nothing on the outside, he saw a look of exhaustion in his demeanor, so Shen Nian played this song to Gao Lingyan, wanting to make Gao Lingyan relax and relax. And Gao Lingyan did relax a lot.

Shen Nian closed his eyes, stroked the strings, and when he opened his eyes again, Gao Lingyan was long gone. And on the table is a beautiful brocade box. Shen Nian got up and walked over, opened it strangely, and found that there was a purple jade hairpin inside, Shen Nian smiled, Brother Yan always knew what he liked, as soon as he thought of this, his face burned all of a sudden, Shen Nian immediately covered his face, but he still sat in front of the dressing mirror, took the hairpin with him, and smiled stupidly.

Day 2.

Shen Nian got up early every day, because she felt that morning was the most suitable time for martial arts practice, and her heart was stable at the moment.

After eating in the morning, Shen Feng asked Shen Nian: "Nian'er, the sun is just right today, the breeze is looking for it, how about going boating with me?" ”

"Okay." Shen Nian replied happily. "Isn't Big Brother going?"

"I have business today, you can go, come back early." Shen Qing said, Shen Qing is the eldest son of the Shen Mansion after all, and there are actually a lot of things in normal times, he went out with Shen Nian for a day yesterday, and he can't go out anymore because of his official business today, after all, in order to make them have more fun, his official affairs must be completed better.

"Okay, then when Nian'er comes back, Nian'er will go to accompany the eldest brother."

"You. Come back early and stay safe. Shen Qing scratched Shen Nian's little nose.

"I'll go too." Gao Lingyu hurriedly said.

"I'm sure I'll take you." Shen Nian looked at Gao Lingyu's bun face and pinched it.

"Second brother, today is really a good day for boating." Shen Nian stood on the bow of the boat, feeling the breeze brush his cheeks.

Shen Feng looked at Shen Nian standing at the bow of the boat, shook his head with a smile, and suddenly he saw that the hairpin on Shen Nian's head was reflecting, and when he fixed his eyes, it was actually a purple jade hairpin, which he had never seen Shen Nian bring before.

"Nian'er, when did you have this hairpin, I haven't seen you bring it before." Shen Feng asked directly.

"Ahh When Shen Nian heard Shen Feng ask, his eyes suddenly wandered, and his mouth stammered. Unconsciously touched the hairpin on his head. "Sent by a friend. Shen Feng saw Shen Nian like this, he had a guess in his heart, with a smile on his face, but he was scolding in his heart, stinky boy, when did this develop like this.

"Sister Fairy, can you play the piano for us?" Although Gao Lingyu is still a child, he is also a rich son, and he knows what to do. ”

"But there's no piano." Shen Nian replied, fortunately, Gao Lingyu changed the topic, otherwise he really didn't know how to answer the second brother, but he didn't know that his second brother Shen Feng had already figured it out, after all, this is Shen Feng is not Shen Qing, don't look at Shen Feng's usual appearance as a handsome son, but when facing outsiders, Shen Feng is a black-bellied fox, and his black-bellied degree is comparable to Gao Lingyan.

"Who said no, I brought it." Shen Feng spoke.

"Second brother, you brought it, why don't I know." Shen Nian looked surprised.

Shen Feng shook his head, "You." At the same time, he knocked Shen Nian's head with a fan, "What do you know, I let the little guy take it just now, you know that you came out to raft happily and didn't care about anything, what can you know." ”

Shen Nian stuck out his tongue. Shen Feng motioned for the little servant to bring the piano over.

At this time, in the capital, because of living and working in peace and contentment, the sons and ladies of rich and noble families like these elegant things, and it is normal to come out to play the piano on a boat.

Shen Nian stroked the strings, "Zheng." "It's a pity not to touch the piano on such a beautiful day.

Shen Nian closed his eyes, felt the warm air around him, and began to bounce. Shen Feng and Gao Lingyu both closed their eyes and admired, and even the boatman holding the boat stopped and felt the sound of the piano in the air. The boat just stopped in the water. The beautiful sound of the piano attracted people on both sides of the strait to stop and listen, the air seemed to be still, and the world seemed to warm everything at this time.

At this time, there was suddenly more flute sound, and the flute sound and the sound of the piano complemented each other, as if they were companions, as if they were rivals, accompanying each other, making the people around them more intoxicated.

At the end of the song, the sound of the flute stopped at the same time.

Shen Nian had heard the sound of the flute since just now, and he didn't expect that there would be someone who could resonate with his own piano sound.

At this time, people seemed to wake up from the sound of the flute.

A beautifully decorated boat stopped in front of the boat of Shen Nian and the others.

A handsome man in a fancy costume stood in front of the boat, holding a jade flute in his hand, and he was the one who played with Shen Nian.
