Chapter 012: Memories

Xie Yingfeng looked at Shaotang, who was standing silently on the side, and remembered the big mansion he had lived in the General's Mansion, and any courtyard was more gorgeous and magnificent than the Lingyun Hall of the Master.

He was afraid that Senior Brother Shaotang would not be accustomed to living in Yao Wang Zong, so he would look preoccupied, especially his bamboo house, which was leaking from all sides, and it was even more shabby than the one he lived. I don't know if it's going to freeze at night.

He put down the wooden basin and patted Shaotang on the shoulder: "Senior brother, don't worry, I will go to the mountains to dig up more herbs in a while, and when the time comes, I will sell the money to buy you a good bed." Your bamboo house is not warm, and it is cold at night, so don't freeze you. ā€

He completely forgot Ran Shaotang's style of stuffing silver when he saw people, and he was worried that this little junior brother would be wronged in the Medicine King Sect.

After three lifetimes, Shaotang felt that his heart was already a cocoon wrapped in silk.

The knife can't be pierced, and the fire can't burn through.

Reject others, but you can also protect yourself well.

However, even hard things have weaknesses.

Shaotang suddenly smiled at Xie Yingyi.

Since she was a child, her wonderful father, who spoiled his wife and was crazy, often reprimanded her for one thing.

"Remember, don't laugh in the future. If you want to laugh, you must hide and laugh where no one can see it. When you are around, you should restrain yourself, keep your face tight, and never laugh. No matter how happy I am, I can't laugh. ā€

In fact, she really wanted to tell her father that she laughed not because she was really happy.

It's that her life is inherently bitter.

She didn't smile anymore, and she had no interest in living.

She never understood why she had to limit her right to be happy when she was already burdened with the heaviest things.

Later, I overheard the conversation between my parents and suddenly realized that my father didn't let her laugh because of the pear vortex on her face.

The small pear vortex that grows on the left cheek contains the sweetness that the birthmark can't hide.

She laughed too much like a bright and feminine girl. This makes it easy to reveal your identity. If the emperor and the eldest princess find out that something is wrong, before she leaves home at the age of ten, the Ran family will be destroyed.

So, she can't laugh.

But is this a reason for her to suppress her happiness?

In order to save the life of the family, in order to fulfill her father's lies, she has disfigured her face. and never let the maidservants serve closely. Not to mention too much and too close contact with other children. Even the little sister Shaoshang, she can avoid it.

In Kyoto, she lived like a lonely hedgehog.

She finally understood how miserable the life of her "brother" in the first life was.

In the first life, when she was Ran Shaoshang, although she married Shen Weiyong and had a miserable fate, in the days when she was a daughter in front of her parents, she lived a gorgeous life, crying when she wanted to cry, and laughing when she wanted to laugh. It can be said to be a collection of thousands of pets.

At that time, she didn't understand why her brother, who was born on the same day and month in the same year, always avoided herself, why she always had a cold face and an attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away.

She longs for her brother's love and closeness. But when getting along with his brother, he always shows that he wants to get close and refuses to get close, which is always awkward.

Once, she wore her mother's newly made Bibo Yanluo skirt and danced under the begonia tree to show her parents, and it happened that her brother was passing by.

On that day, she had peach-pink rouge on her lips, her face was like congealed fat, and her black hair was like a waterfall.

The spring breeze blows, the silk flutters, the white begonia flowers fall, the rotating lake-colored dress rolls up the beautiful wind, and the begonias fly like snowflakes.

Grandma praised her for dancing and being as beautiful as a fairy, and her father said that she looked like a mother. She smiled brightly when she heard this, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the strangeness in her brother's eyes.

She went to take a closer look, but her brother had already noticed that his hand habitually touched the birthmark under his eyes, and his eyes were as indifferent as before, and he seemed to be a different person from before.

It was the happiest time before she got married. The elder brother returned from the Medicine King Sect to marry.

At the time, she didn't understand what was in her brother's eyes.

It wasn't until this life that she really understood how heavy the things that her brother in the first life carried.

That look is nothing more than the envy of a girl who is shackled by responsibility for another girl.

She regretted that she hadn't known the truth earlier in her first life.

She especially wanted to tell Ran Shaotang at that time that those burdens could be put down.

In this life, by mistake, she inherited her brother's fate and became Ran Shaotang. A deep understanding of how lonely it is to have such days when you want to laugh but can't laugh.

Finally escaping from that invisible cage in Kyoto, she longs to live as a ray of light.

One day in the future, when she completes Ran Shaotang's mission, she will let go in another way.

Abandoning this momentary distraction, she secretly blamed Xie Yingjian Xie Thirteen, why did she treat her so well. Let her think back to her brother, to think back to the past.

The light in the room was dim, and at this time, Xie Yingjian, who said that he wanted to make money to buy her a bed, was the brightest light in this room.

Looking at the senior brother who was smiling and simple, Ran Shaotang felt that this person was really stupid.

Silly cute.

She didn't want to let herself continue to be immersed in that kind of sad emotion, so she tiptoed and patted Xie Yingjian on the shoulder, and discussed: "Senior brother, you see that I am the youngest disciple in our sect, and I look at it as if I am all senior brothers, and when I see people, I call senior brother ......."

Xie Yingfeng listened to her carefully, not knowing what the little junior brother Shaotang wanted to express.

Shaotang's small fist gently slammed into his chest and asked, "Do you want to be different from them?" ā€

"What's different?" Xie Yingfeng was a little blind.

"It doesn't feel the same." She winced her eyes at him.

The wooden basin in Xie Yingyi's hand fell to the ground, and his clothes were scattered on the ground.

He clasped his hands to his chest and stepped back in fear: "I—I don't have that kind of fetish." ā€

There is no way, the first time I saw this little junior brother, I thought he was too good-looking, although there was a birthmark on his face, it didn't affect his perception at all. Sometimes, Shaotang laughed, and he usually didn't dare to look at it. I always feel like a girl.

When he heard the gossip and nonsense of the senior brothers, he vaguely mentioned the habit of breaking sleeves, and suddenly felt that the junior brother was so terrible.

Shaotang looked at his stupid look and laughed "hahahaha", laughing so much that she bent down and squatted on the ground, tears about to laugh. It took a long time for her to stop, and she couldn't hold back a smile and counted Xie Yingyi.

"What are you thinking? How can you have a messy and unhealthy stomach at a young age. Who instilled it in you. Stay away from the man in the future. ā€

Xie Yingfeng was unconvinced: "Who made you have that expression." ā€

"Isn't that look on my face afraid that you won't agree? Okay, no more teasing you. Shaotang pushed him, "When I arrived at the Medicine King Sect, I found that there were so many senior brothers all over the mountains, and they were not recognizable at all, in order to treat them differently, I will call you Xie Thirteen in the future, what do you think?" ā€

"No, I can't. I've never been a serious senior brother, and finally there is someone younger than me, and you have to call me senior brother. ā€

"Then you don't count, my mouth is long on my face. I can shout whatever I want. Thirteen, thirteen, Xie thirteen. ā€

"Don't scream. Don't bark. ā€

Two people chased around a wooden basin and a pile of clothes.

Tired of running, the gloom in Ran Shaotang's heart was swept away, and then he pointed to the wooden basin and dirty clothes that were kicked under the bed to divert Xie Yingyi's attention.

"Thirteen...... Senior brother, who are you holding so many clothes? Xie Yingjian grinned happily when he heard the words senior brother behind him.

Squatted down to clean up the mess on the ground: "The clothes belong to the three senior brothers." If you don't bother, come with me to the stream, and I'll do their laundry. ā€

"Why don't they wash their own clothes?" Shaotang felt incredible.

"I have always washed my brother's clothes. I'm a junior brother. ā€

What kind of logic is this, isn't it bullying?

If they all follow this rule, then she is the youngest in the Medicine King Sect, and no one can instruct her to work in the future?
