The sunset is infinitely good, just near dusk.

Xiao Ming happily followed Shi Tingyu down the mountain, and one day when she came out, the small back basket was full of medicines, and more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials that were not available in her space would be added, which was great! On the other hand, Shi Tingyu returned empty-handed from hunting today, he didn't hunt at all today, and he helped her collect medicine, and now the work of carrying a small medicine and carrying a basket has also been contracted by him.

The results are remarkable, well, continue to be like this, I believe that it will not be long before medicinal herbs will be planted under the fruit trees, and when the fruit trees are full of fruit, and the ground below is wafting with the fragrance of medicine, what a beautiful scene.

When Xiao Ming returned home, she happened to see Yi Feng and Uncle Ming coming back in a carriage, and they were going to the town to pick up Xiao Han and Xiangyuan.

"What about Yuanze? Why didn't I join you. Xiao Ming looked at Xiao Han and asked strangely, whether it was Xiao Han's carriage or Yunling's carriage, there was no figure of Chen Yuanze, and Laifu was gone.

"Sister, Brother Yuanze's father is here." Xiao Han said, his voice was dull and murmuring, since Chen Yuanze arrived at Xiao's house, he played with him, lived in the same courtyard, practiced martial arts and literature together, became familiar with each other, and the relationship was extraordinary.

Chen Yuanze is fifteen this year, and Xiao Han has always called him his brother.

"Auntie, Uncle Ze's father is so fierce!" Xiao Yu said, just one look scared him.

Recalling that time, they and Brother Yuanze were about to say goodbye to Mr., knowing that they were inconvenient to disturb Mr. Wu's family, so they stood outside the study and waited for Mr., but when Mr. came out, they didn't expect that the guest who came from afar was Chen Yuanze's father.

And Chen Yuanze's father was very surprised to see Chen Yuanze, obviously he didn't expect to meet his son here, but in addition to the accident, he was more angry, and the stern eyes at that time frightened Xiao Yu, the little bun.

"So, Yuan Ze was taken away by his father, Lord Chen." Xiao Ming concluded that she didn't feel any problem with her and Xiao Han's title for Chen Yuanze at all.

"Yes, Mr. Wu invited Master Chen to stay overnight, I think they will go back tomorrow!" Xiao Han said, Brother Yuan Ze has been studying with them with Mr., Mr. Wu has no doubts about his origin, only knows that he is Xiao Ming's friend, and he didn't expect him to be the son of the deceased at all, yes, after confirming his identity, Mr. Wu was also very surprised, but it was late today, Mr. Wu wanted their father and son to reunite after a long absence, and asked Lord Chen to stay, thinking that they would return to Cheng Cheng Chun tomorrow.

"Hmm." Xiao Han's dull voice, without the laughter of the past, obviously the mood at the moment is not very happy, since Brother Yuan Ze arrived at Xiao's house, although he doesn't like him to compete for favor in front of his sister, but they eat and sleep together, get up in the morning to practice martial arts, study together, get along with each other every day, in his heart he is like a brother, but now that he is leaving, he is a little reluctant.

Lord Chen seems to be a very strict person, I don't know if he will punish Brother Yuanze.

Xiao Ming didn't speak, Chen Yuanze ran out of Chen's house privately and came all the way to her Xiao family to find her, often flattering her, and calling her sister affectionately by her side at any time, lively and laughing, and some young masters of the family have a temperament, jumping and screaming when they are happy, and losing their temper when they are unhappy, she really can't hate such a little boy, he has been in Xiao's house for a month, she has long regarded him as her own family, this is about to leave, and she left so suddenly.

Although she was reluctant, but her father was here, could she still stop her, and she was reluctant to let her heart go, Xiao Ming still said: "Yuan Ze has been out for so long, it's time to go back, he still has parents at home, and there is a grandmother who loves him." ”

Xiao Ming said, this seemed to be comforting Xiao Han and Xiao Yu, but why not say it to herself.

Shi Tingyu stood behind Xiao Ming, looking at the three members of the Xiao family, and sighed in his heart, they were grieving for Chen Yuanze's imminent departure, I'm afraid they don't know what kind of origin Chen Yuanze they met, Hechun Chen family is a big family, a hundred years of scholarly family, whether it is in Hechun City or in the capital, the Chen family is a famous party, after Chen Yuan entered the cabinet to worship the prime minister, and the official was promoted to the second assistant of the dynasty, the Chen family is even more famous, Chen Yuanze is the youngest son of Chen Yuan, the second assistant of the dynasty, and his grandmother is a countryman, whether it is family background or status, That Chen Yuanze is an extremely noble figure.

"Well, Chen Yuanze's father, Lord Chen, isn't that Chen Yuan here, he came here....' Shi Tingyu was delicate and extremely smart, and in the blink of an eye, he thought of Chen Yuan's purpose for coming to Ping'an Town.

Regarding Chen Yuanze's life experience, he did not remind Xiao Ming that sometimes status will bring unsurpassed glory and power, and gain more things, but sometimes it is a burden and a fetter, like an invisible wall, and at the same time you will lose more things.

He believed that if Xiao Ming knew Chen Yuanze's true life experience, he probably wouldn't accept him wholeheartedly like now.

And himself ....

"Tomorrow, you go to Mr. Wu's place early, and bring more food that Yuan Ze likes to eat to see him off." Xiao Ming instructed, and immediately asked Yi's mother to prepare, Chen Yuanze's favorite fruit wine and canned food, as well as the snow and mud he regarded as life, all of which made Yi's mother prepare a lot for Xiao Han to bring to him tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, on the second day, before Xiao Han and the others went to the town, Chen Yuanze came back first, accompanied by Chen's father Chen Yuan.

There are only Chen Yuan and his son, and the guests come to the door to receive them, these etiquette Yi mother usually has a few professors, Xiao Ming is inconvenient to stay for a long time as a female dependent, Yi mother took Bai Xiaoyu and Li'er to send tea and fruit snacks, Xiao Ming only stepped forward to see the gift and retreated, and let Xiao Han and Xiao Yu accompany Xiao Yu to talk in the living room.

"That's what you did at a young age, well, that's good." Chen Yuan nodded, full of appreciation; Mother's illness was relieved because of Xiao Ming, but he was an official in Beijing all the year round, and he didn't know much about the Xiao family, only knowing that the Xiao family had no parents and relatives, orphan brothers and weak nephews, and it was pitiful to think about it, but along the way, the Xiao family had a lot of family business, and now the fruit wine and canned food that are popular in the capital are actually from Xiao Ming's hands, and now the Xiao family is building a school.

It is not easy to achieve such an achievement.

Seeing that although Xiao Han was a young man who had not grown up, he was humble and polite to others, and when he saw him sitting stiffly, he was afraid that he would be frightened by himself, so he said: "The old man is uninvited, just take a casual look, you don't have to be so nervous, you can be good friends with Yuan Ze, just call me uncle." Chen Yuan said, last night he and Chen Yuanze had a long talk at night, in his heart, his little son has not been around since he was a child, he was spoiled by his mother and grew up, pampered, and he didn't learn anything, and he was extremely reckless in playing inferior, but after last night he had a new understanding of him, Brother Xiwen actually praised him, and his studies have improved, and he knew that his son was slowly changing when he didn't know.

Being able to study with Wu Tong, who is famous all over the world and talented and talented, has benefited a lot, which is a good thing and a blessing, he knows that if it weren't for the Xiao family, Yuan Ze would not have been able to enter the eyes of Xiwen.

"Uncle Chen." Xiao Han nodded respectfully.

Xiao Ming just went back to the backyard after seeing the ceremony, Yi's mother in the kitchen had already started to prepare lunch, Hechun Chen's family identity is very, and he came from afar, so he can't be lazy, he has to prepare for lunch in advance, otherwise he will lose his etiquette and make people look down on their Xiao family.

Seeing Xiao Ming coming, Yi's mother took out the menu and showed it to Xiao Ming.

"It's good to invite Uncle Xia and Brother Shi to come over and accompany you at noon." Xiao Ming asked.

"Very good, the old slave has asked Yi Xuan to invite."

Chen Yuanze slipped in at some point, saw a peeled apple on the table, took one and put it in his mouth, and the fruit platter that Song had just placed was missing a corner when he took a piece, which caused Song to laugh and scold: "You kid, why did you eat it, did you wash your hands?" ”

"I've washed it, godmother, I'll eat a piece." Chen Yuanze said and took another piece.

What a piece of this!

Song looked at the helpless smile, and took another apple and peeled it.

"Why are you here?" Xiao Ming asked, wasn't he by his father's side at this time?

"You were last night..." Xiao Ming paused, it wouldn't be a beating!

"You were okay last night!" In the end, Xiao Ming asked very tactfully, can't you hurt this young man's self-esteem.

However, although Xiao Ming said it very vaguely, the meaning was still a little obvious.

Chen Yuanze was so angry that he wanted to jump to his feet, why couldn't he hear what Xiao Ming meant, and argued dissatisfiedly: "My father won't beat me?" ”

"Oh, that's fine." Xiao Ming nodded, as if relieved, and looked at Chen Yuanze even more dissatisfied, as if she wanted him to be beaten.

Looking at Chen Yuanze, who was about to run away, Xiao Ming hurriedly said: "You are going back today, I have prepared a lot of fruit wine, canned food and snow mud for you." ”

Xiao Ming's tone was flattering, his father was here, he should also follow home!

Chen Yuanze was better than a loss when he heard it, but then he said, "Why should I go back?" My father has already allowed me to stay here and study. ”

"Ahh

Xiao Ming····

Looking at Xiao Ming's surprised appearance, Chen Yuanze was so proud, very surprised!

"My father didn't know that I was here, and he was very satisfied with me when he watched me study with Mr. Wu, and asked me to study seriously in the future." Chen Yuanze said proudly, doesn't that mean that you don't have to go home.

"Your father doesn't know you're studying here?" Xiao Mingqi was surprised, she remembered that she asked Chen Yuanze to write a letter back to report her safety, and she didn't say anything about this guy.

"Your letter?"

"There's a letter to the family! I told my grandmother that I was safe, but they didn't know that Mr. Wu was Mr. Wu. Chen Yuanze said that he only wrote a letter to his grandmother to reassure her, and said that he would study with Xiao Han, as for who Mr. was, he did not explain, that is, he did not know in advance that Mr. Wu was his father's classmate and friend, I am afraid that in the eyes of Mrs. Chen, the Mr. invited by the Xiao family is just an ordinary gentleman.

"You don't know, I only found out yesterday that Mr. Wu was actually my father's classmate, and he once joined the court as an official."

Xiao Ming was speechless, daring to love this guy who ran away from home and only reported his safety to Mrs. Chen, and didn't explain much, that is, his parents didn't inform him too much, and this child didn't know what it was like to be spoiled by Mrs. Chen.

It turned out that Old Madam Chen had always known that Chen Yuanze had been doing well in their Xiao family, otherwise with her spoiled grandson, she would have taken people back a long time ago, and she would not have let her stay here for a month.

For a while, Xiao Ming didn't know what to say, this child who was spoiled by his grandmother! Neither of his biological parents knew that he was studying with Mr. Wu here, and she didn't know until today that Mr. Wu was actually a classmate and friend of Chen Yuanze's father, and he had also been a senior official.

I think about how Senior Brother Min introduced Mr. Wu to him in the first place, "This is a young friend of mine, and he is brilliant. I didn't mention much about Mr. Wu!

It's too irresponsible.

No matter what, it's a good thing that Chen Yuanze can stay, this is different after the clear road, after his father's consent, he no longer has to worry about being picked up by his family one day, and he can rest assured that he will live at home in the future, and go up the mountain to hunt together on his holiday.

Of course, if you think far, the most you can do is drink fruit wine and eat canned food every day, and go up to the mountains to hunt during your bath.

"Then why did you come in, don't go with your father." Turning his train of thought, Xiao Ming looked at Chen Yuanze in front of him and felt a little obstructed.

"My father went to the school, and I didn't go with Xiao Han, because there was mud everywhere." Chen Yuanze pursed his mouth and said with a disgusted face, he sneaked back to find his sister.

"Sister, it's good that I'll be here in the future." Chen Yuanze begged, his father meant to buy him a house in the town, so he didn't do it.

He is three years older than Xiao Ming, but that voice is a matter of course, but this sister is a little tired.

Xiao Ming and Xiao Han, Xiao Han called him brother, he called Sister Xiao Ming, how is this title a garbled word, for the interaction between the two, Yi's mother and Song and others are doing their own things, smiling and not speaking, obviously used to it.

Xiao Ming~~~

was attacked by Chen Yuanze's magic sound, and his back was cold, and he felt that there was something called chicken skin and fell to the ground!

"Stay! You can stay as long as you love. Xiao Ming said.

Xiao Han accompanied Chen Yuan to look at the school under construction, looking at the laid foundation, the scale is not small, he didn't expect the Xiao family to have such a big deal, after learning that Xiao Ming has free admission to the village children to study, nodded and praised, Cang Liao knows etiquette, in his heart everything is inferior only to high reading, success and fame, a great cause.

I took the exam for Xiao Han and Xiao Yu's courses again, nodded with satisfaction, thinking of the spoiled youngest son in my family, I really had to throw away the goods, and the people were better than death! This Xiao Han is a typical child of someone else's family, even Xiao Yu is much stronger than his unsuccessful son.

When he learned that Xiao Han would end next year, he inevitably said a lot of words of encouragement, and gave him a inkstone that he often used.

After lunch, Chen Yuancai left in the car, and when he left, he sternly told Chen Yuanze to turn over, Chen Yuanze lowered his eyebrows in front of his father, like a good baby, and he did not have the arrogant and competitive appearance on weekdays.

Chen Yuan taught his son a lesson, and asked Xiao Ming and others to take care of him, so he left with confidence.

Chen Yuanze watched the carriage go on the bridge and go away, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and put his heart back.

"Sister, my dad is gone!" Chen Yuanze said happily, as if he was declaring, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a little monkey who had escaped from the cage singing and dancing.

Xiao Ming was speechless, and glanced at this little brat, of course she saw it, everyone saw it, you said you are a little brat, what are you happy to be when your father is gone, shouldn't you be in a low mood for a while, sway a handful of tears, and stage a family drama of father and son tearful parting.

"Thank you, Uncle Xia." Xiao Ming saluted and thanked Xia Zhongquan, and they invited the Xia family to accompany Chen Yuan for lunch today, but the Xia family somehow only Xia Zhongquan came over.

"You're welcome, I'll take care of it first." Xia Zhongquan nodded, and went to the construction site, these days he has also contributed to the Xiao family's cultivation school, according to his words, I Xia someone has no other skills, and I still have a lot of strength.

In addition to Xia Zhongquan, An is also helping Xiao Ming take care of things on the stove.
