After sending Xun Shuang away, Ding Xiao turned his head and smiled, "Senior sister, you should die now." ”

"Not this time!"

Cai Yan said indignantly, "Xun Gong has a will to die, and it is useless to persuade anyone, it's not that I am not capable!" ”

"Don't play Leon!"

Ding Xiao hurriedly emphasized, "We agreed before, whether this matter is successful or not, you have to go back to the state." The difference is whether it was Duke Xun who brought you back, or whether I sent someone to send you back. ”

"That's not going to work!"

Cai Yan directly refused, "I boasted about Haikou in front of my father, and I must successfully convince someone before I can go back!" Otherwise, I would have died of laughter from my father. ”

"Not to ......"

Ding Xiao just wanted to say a few words of comfort, but saw Cai Yan suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the corner of his sleeve, shaking and swaying, "Good senior brother, you can do well, don't drive me away...... Please, just promise me this time......"

Although fifteen-year-old Cai Yan is still childish, she is a standard beauty embryo, belonging to the pure and graceful type.

The most amazing thing is that at this moment, Cai Yan actually squeezed out a few tears, and the appearance of pear blossoms with rain made her pure and charming, and a little more pitiful out of thin air, which made people feel sorry.

"Uh-uh."

Ding Xiao couldn't stand this the most, and felt that his bones were a little crispy, so he hurriedly said, "Okay, don't shake it, I promise you." ”

"Puff ......"

Cai Yan instantly burst into tears and laughed, and gave Ding Xiao a big thumbs up, "Senior brother is the best, I knew that senior brother would agree to me." ”

"Uh-huh."

Ding Xiao agreed with a strange face, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, a woman is really a natural actor! Moreover, if tears can be used well, it is simply a woman's nirvana, and there is no solution at all.

Then he quickly changed the topic and said, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's get out of here first." ”

"Okay, everything is up to Senior Brother's arrangement."

Cai Yan instantly switched states, replied very obediently, turned on his horse, and drove away with Ding Xiao.

On the way, Ding Xiao arranged for a personal guard to ride a fast horse to report the news to Cai Yong, so as not to worry the teacher. Then, he took Cai Yan to a nearby stronghold.

"You rest here for a while, I'll take care of something, and I'll call you to eat in the evening." After arranging Cai Yan into a clean room, he got up and said goodbye.

"Wait a minute."

Cai Yan shouted to Ding Xiao and asked, "Senior brother, are there any books here?" ”

"Nope."

Ding Xiao shook his head.

In this era, all kinds of books were basically in the hands of the scholars, and naturally there was not a single book to be found in this rented village courtyard.

"Did you bring the piano with you?" Cai Yan asked again.

"Nope."

Ding Xiao spread his hands and shook his head regretfully.

"Isn't it boring for me to stay here?"

Cai Yan couldn't help frowning.

"That can't be helped, this isn't a vacation, why should I bring those things?"

Ding Xiao pouted and said, "If you want to be bored, why don't I let someone send you away?" If you go now, you can catch up with the teacher before dark. ”

"No, no, I'll just ask." Cai Yan hurriedly changed his words.

But immediately, she was a little unwilling and finally asked, "Senior brother, you always have things like pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, right?" ”

"Well...... this"

Ding Xiao's writing is very ugly, especially the traditional Chinese strokes, he is troublesome, so he has never written with a pen, so naturally he will not prepare these objects.

However, with the increase in the amount of information, it was no longer possible to meet his communication requirements by letting his subordinates pass on oral messages, and he had to write letters to his father sooner or later, so practicing calligraphy had become an urgent matter.

And Cai Yan, like her father, is also a calligrapher, so he had the idea of asking for advice, "Senior sister, you want to write a letter?" ”

"No, I want to practice calligraphy." Cai Yan said with a smile.

"This can be there."

Ding Xiao's eyes lit up, and he said, "I was just about to write a letter to my father, so it is better to let my junior sister do it for me." ”

"You and I have different handwriting, can you do it?"

Cai Yan was puzzled, "Why don't you write it yourself?" ”

"Ahem, that ......"

Ding Xiao's face turned red, thinking that if he wanted to ask Cai Yan in the future, he couldn't hide this matter at all, so he admitted calmly, "Okay, I admit it, my handwriting is not very neat, I'm afraid my father won't recognize it......"

"Poof—"

Cai Yan couldn't help laughing, "How can there be a father who doesn't know his son's handwriting?" Brother, you're kidding me! ”

"I'm serious."

Ding Xiao smiled helplessly, and briefly described his miserable childhood, and then joked, "To be honest, my father has never seen what my handwriting looks like, even if I ask Brother Dian Wei to write a few words casually, and say that I wrote it, my father can believe it." ”

But he didn't expect that his joke not only didn't amuse Cai Yan, but also made the other party cry.

"I didn't expect your background to be so miserable......"

Cai Yan's sympathy was overflowing, tears rained down, and he was out of control.

Ding Xiao was suddenly a little overwhelmed, "Senior sister, why are you crying?" ”

"Nothing ......"

Cai Yan sobbed, "I just remembered my mother...... She died when I was very young......"

Ding Xiao understood when he listened to it, it turned out that Cai Yan lost his mother when he was young, although Cai Yong remarried a wife, and he was not bad to her, but after all, he was not her biological mother, and it was impossible to take good care of everything, and later her stepmother also gave birth to a daughter, so she cared even less for her.

Cai Yan thought of himself from Ding Xiao's childhood experience, and felt that the two of them had the same disease, so he couldn't help but feel sad.

"Senior sister, don't cry, don't worry, senior brother will definitely treat you like a sister in the future, treat you well!" Ding Xiao hurriedly comforted him.

"Really?"

Cai Yan raised his head with a look of joy on his face.

"Of course it's true!"

Ding Xiao smiled, "A teacher for one day, a father for life, since I have worshiped your father as a teacher, you are naturally my sister." ”

"Thank you, brother."

Cai Yan burst into tears and laughed, but immediately, she lowered her head a little embarrassed, "Yan'er lost control of her emotions for a while, and the senior brother smiled." ”

"It's fine."

Ding Xiao grinned and beckoned, "Then let's go." ”

"Where are you going?"

Cai Yan's eyes were blank.

"Go sell pen, ink, paper, and inkstone!"

Ding Xiao explained with a smile, "There are good and bad things in these things, and my subordinates are all martial artists, and they don't know how to choose at all." ”

"Senior brother!"

Cai Yan's face was suddenly covered with black lines, "You don't even have the four treasures of the study, and you still want to worship my father as a teacher?" ”

"Ugh."

Ding Xiao smiled, "I have!" Of course! There are several sets! It's just that this is a temporary residence, so I didn't bring it with me. ”

"But if we're going to buy these things, we're going to have to go into the city."

Cai Yan said worriedly, "Once you are recognized, you will suffer!" ”

"You don't have to worry about this, every time I enter the city, I will dress up in disguise, and ordinary people can't recognize it at all."

Ding Xiao smiled, "As for you...... Have you ever tried dressing as a man? ”

"Dressed as a man?!"

Cai Yan's eyes lit up suddenly, she felt that this proposal was a little funny compared to safety, "Good idea!" Walk! Take me to the right outfit! ”
