As soon as Xiao Yun entered the door, she shouted in a well-behaved and clear voice: "Hello third brother!" ”

Guan Zhuofan's eyes lit up slightly: Xiao Yun is a beautiful embryo, a good life, good nutrition, a teenage girl, she has already pulled up her body, and she is faintly bumpy.

Bai said: "You two talk, I'll go out first." ”

Guan Zhuofan smiled and waved his hand: "No need, let's still 'face to face gong and drum to face drum', as the Cantonese people say, 'three mouths and six sides', 'speak clearly and talk about Chu'." ”

Bai had no choice but to sit down.

Guan Zhuofan didn't ask Xiao Yun to sit, his face sank slightly, and said, "Xiao Yun, I heard that you actually lost your temper with your sister?" Okay, it's growing! ”

The tone didn't seem to be good, but Xiao Yun wasn't afraid at all - in this Xuan Wang's Mansion, she was the only one who was not afraid of Guan Zhuofan at all. Xiao Yun is getting older, and she will no longer throw herself into his arms as soon as she saw the third brother like she did when she was a child, but she knows that the third brother cherishes the most, and the whole family counts herself.

So he pursed his little mouth and said, "My sister has wronged me!" Where did I lose my temper with my sister? My sister can't argue with me, so she comes to the third brother to sue me! ”

Bai Shi was angry and said, "Listen, listen, her mouth!" ”

sighed, and said, "I can't argue with her!" Her reasoning is the same as what you said, eight or nine are not far from ten! It seems that if I don't let her study abroad, I will hurt her for the rest of her life - I don't know, I thought that you brothers and sisters had mixed it up in advance! ”

What did she say to me, eight or nine are not far from ten?

At a young age. Where did you get this insight?

Guan Zhuofan was secretly surprised in his heart. But he said with a wry smile: "You two." I don't know who wronged whom, but you must have wronged me—and wronged me twice in one go. ”

After a pause, he continued: "First, Xiao Yun and I didn't mix it in advance; Second, I didn't say that I wouldn't let Xiao Yun study abroad. It's hurt her for the rest of her life. ”

Bai Shi smiled lightly and said, "That's what it means anyway." ”

Guan Zhuofan smiled helplessly, then turned to Xiao Yun and said softly: "Xiao Yun, it's not that my sister won't give you a trip to the sea-she is reluctant to let you go!" You're her only sister, closer than your own daughter, you know? ”

"I know!" Xiao Yun bit her lower lip slightly, "I can't bear my sister either!" However, the world outside is so big, you should always go out for a walk and take a look—my sister has never even gone out to the boundaries of Beijing. Isn't it a pity? I, I'll go out for a walk on my sister's behalf and have a look! ”

Kwan Zhuofan and Bai. I couldn't help but laugh.

Bai Shi took a sip lightly and said, "You little girl, you talk about yourself like Mulan-yo, you go abroad to study, I want to get your love?" What is the truth of this? ”

Xiao Yun immediately pushed back: "I'm not going to be Mulan!" Mulan pretended to be a man and held back for many years, what kind of life did she live? I want to put on a fair and honest posture as a daughter, go abroad to study, and return to China to do things! ”

Guan Zhuofan secretly cheered in his heart!

His look of appreciation was beyond words, although Xiao Yun was young, she was a very sensitive girl, and when she saw it in her eyes, she knew that her words were in line with the third brother's intentions.

"In "The Story of Stones", "Xiao Yun is getting more and more energetic," Jia Tanchun said, "As long as I am a man and can go out, I will leave early and set up a career, and I will have my own reason at that time." I'm my daughter's family, and I don't talk nonsense about a word'——"

After a pause, he continued: "Jia Tanchun has no way, at that time, there was no such thing as 'women studying abroad', so naturally there was nothing to do, but today I have it, I am going to miss it?" Am I not as good as Jia Tanchun, can't I go out and set up my own career? ”

This vibrating little adult looked like a little adult, and Bai Shi was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to refute it.

Guan Zhuofan couldn't bear it anymore, laughed, and said: "Okay, you are 'self-conscious'!" Disastrous! Amazing! ”

After a pause, he couldn't help but joke: "It is also a 'noble son-in-law' in the future!" ”

Xiao Yun was stunned: "Third brother! ”

Guan Zhuofan turned his head and looked at Bai with a smile, meaning: What do you think?

I thought to myself: What a "Dream of Red Mansions"! It is truly chicken soup for the soul of this era! "Reader" and "Bosom Friend" can't be compared! I have to thank Cao Zhan!

Bai's eyes were red again, and he wanted to cry: "But, more than ten years!" I...... What should I do? ”

Without waiting for Guan Zhuofan to say something to convince him, Xiao Yun grabbed it again: "Alas, sister, you are like this again!" What's the big deal about more than a decade? It's not that we can't see each other—you can come to America to see me! ”

Bai Shi frowned and said, "You're talking nonsense again, how can you ......?"

Before the words fell, they only heard the sound of "pop", Bai Shi and Xiao Yun were startled, but when they saw it, it was Guan Zhuofan who slapped his thigh fiercely.

Guan Zhuofan secretly screamed ashamed: A person's thinking is really prone to blind spots - such a simple solution, why haven't I thought of it? A young man is a young man, and there are not so many rules and regulations in his head!

"Xiao Yun," Guan Zhuofan cocked his thumb, "You are really 'a person who wakes up in a dream'!" Good boy, good girl, good look! ”

Xiao Yun's little face emitted light like a little sun.

Bai Shi whispered: "She's crazy, you're crazy with her—how is it possible?" ”

"How could it be?" Guan Zhuofan said solemnly, "Shuangshuang, don't think about going out once, how amazing it is!" After years and months, nine deaths and one life, that is the old yellow calendar, it is a matter of the time when there were no steamboats! Now, China to the United States, by sea ship, but just over a month! ”

After a pause, he continued: "Also, when China goes to the United States, it all lands on the West Coast, and the Pacific Railway in the United States is about to be completed. Even if Xiao Yun is studying on the East Coast, it won't take much more time for you to go to see her! ”

Bai was stunned. Naturally, she couldn't figure out what the "West Coast", "East Coast", and "Pacific Railroad" were, but that wasn't the point, the point was-

Her voice trembled slightly, and she said, "You mean, if I go to the United States, I will only need to ...... back and forth once."

"Just over three months!" Guan Zhuofan said, "You can go once a year, and every time, you can live in the United States for three to five months!" ”

Bai opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak.

Guan Zhuofan continued to say with great interest: "No matter where Xiao Yun is studying, we can buy a big house there, maids, servants, guards, and interpreters, all of which are complete, and on Sunday, Xiao Yun will go home to live - you two sisters, you can make a fuss as much as you like!" ”

After a pause, he said with a smile: "From Monday to Saturday, if you want, you can take a steamer and go around the United States, so that Xiao Yun won't laugh at you 'You haven't even gone out of Beijing'!" ”

Bai Shi said in a low voice, "That...... What about at home? ”

"That's easy!" Guan Zhuofan said, "There are telegrams everywhere in the United States, if there is anything to say or do, send a telegram back, send a telegram to the past, it is very convenient!" ”

Bai's question, in fact, is not this, but: I'm not at home, what should you do?

Then wake up: it won't be long before he will be "still the master"! When the time comes, I will have my own daughter-in-law - it is better to be a pair of two, and I may not have to continue to take care of my sister-in-law - including ...... In bed?

In my heart, it is sour, painful, sweet, bitter, lost, relieved, and dazed, tossing and turning, stirred together, and the taste is indescribable!

Guan Zhuofan didn't know that she thought of this, and when she saw that she was stunned, she smiled and said: "It's easy to get seasick on a sea boat, it's a bit hard. Still, it's good to get used to it. Let's pick the largest ship and sit in the first class; Or, take your own boat and furnish the largest cabin for you, and it won't be uncomfortable. ”

"Own ship" refers to the ship of "China Merchants Steamship".

However, Bai is not a person who is afraid of hard work.

Seeing that she still didn't speak, Xiao Yun couldn't help it and said, "Sister, you have something to say!" ”

"Ah......h

Bai Shi came to his senses, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Let me think about it, okay......"

Xiao Yun paused: "What's there to think about?" The third brother has already said so clearly! No, you'll have to give it now! ”

"That's—okay, okay, just follow your brother and sister......"

Xiao Yun clapped her hands and smiled: "Sister, you are so good!" ”

Guan Zhuofan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: Let's work!

Bai had mixed feelings and shed tears: "Alas! ……”

Xiao Yun handed over her handkerchief: "Sister, what a happy thing, don't look like this-I still have something to ask the third brother!" ”

"Oh? Oh...... Then, tell your third brother yourself......"

Xiao Yun turned to Guan Zhuofan and said, "Third brother, what I want to ask is-uh, do you also plan to send Xiaohu to study abroad?" ”

This question is not unexpected, the two children, childhood sweethearts, once separated, they are naturally reluctant.

Guan Zhuofan said: "Xiaohu's matter, in fact, is the same as you, and it is not something that I can do alone-I have to ask you what Sister Ming means." ”

After a pause, he said: "However, I thought that your sister Ming must be reluctant to Xiaohu - you have to know this in your heart." ”

Xiao Yun bit her lip lightly, nodded, and said, "I know." ”

"Also," Guan Zhuofan said, "take 10,000 steps back, even if your sister Ming is willing to go abroad, you go to a girls' school, and he goes to a boys' school, the two of you, nine times out of ten, are not in the same city—you don't usually see each other." ”

"The most important point: boys are all 'centralized management', you and your sister's method can't be used to set Xiaohu and Sister Ming, otherwise, it will greatly 'shake the morale of the army' - do you know?"

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yun replied softly, "Yes, I know." ”
