After the news of the Pei family's rehabilitation, Afu was ready to return to Chang'an.

She is the surviving member of the Pei family, and it is not good to always stay in the Mu family.

Therefore, Ming Yan did not stay in Yuyang for long, and accompanied Afu to Chang'an.

"The Pei family is in a mess, do you want me to accompany you to preside?"

"I'm not going back to live. There are only a bunch of aunts left in the house, and I really don't want to see them. ”

"It's fine. Then you go back to Anrenfang? Ming Yan remembered that Ming Ze hadn't dealt with it yet, so he happened to go back with Afu and teach that kid a lesson.

Afu shook her head: "I want to take Chengyuan to live in the Temple of Mercy and Grace for a while. ”

Ming Yan was shocked: "What are you doing in the Temple of Mercy and Grace?" It's cold in that temple, and you're with a child, and there's a cherry blossom next to you..."

Afu held Ming Yan's hand: "Second brother, don't worry about me." I've lived there before, and Mrs. Jing and Shi have treated me very well. Now that you ask me to return to the Xiang family and the Pei family, I am not upset. It would have been much better if I had been asked to stay in front of the Buddha for a while. ”

Ming Yan looked at the black green in Afu's eyes, and couldn't say anything.

After a while, he took his sister on his shoulder: "Don't do anything stupid. Send someone to say what you lack, don't get frostbite. General Pei, he must want you to have a happy life, not to mention that you have to be energetic with Chengyuan. ”

Afu nodded obediently.

"General Pei's letter, have you gotten it?"

"Well, Sister Huannian gave it to me."

“....... What is written? ”

"I haven't seen it yet."

Since knowing that Pei Shuyu's whereabouts are unknown, Afu has behaved very rationally.

Not to mention collapse, Ming Yan hadn't even seen a tear from her.

But he knew that she was very sad, because once he saw her holding a corner of the coffee table, and he couldn't help but tremble.

He rushed over and took her in his arms, and found that the corners of her forehead were bruised, but she didn't cry.

Ming Yan was very worried, just hoping that she could cry like when she was a child, and she would wake up and pass.

Afu took out the envelope from her bosom, thick and a little soft.

Because Mu Huannian has been with him for a long time, the envelope is a little worn, but it can still be seen that it is very delicate dark flower rice paper.

Afu touched the corners lovingly: "I don't know where he found such a beautiful paper." ”

Ming Yan sighed inaudibly, clenched his hand into a fist and let go, not knowing where to go to vent his sullenness.

......

He quickly found an outlet.

After settling Afu, he went to Anrenfang to the mansion.

As soon as I passed the second gate, I was hugged and cried by Mrs. Xiang, who rushed to hear the news.

Ming Yan comforted his parents for a while, and said that there was something wrong with Ming Ze.

Mrs. Xiang said unhappily: "What are you looking for him?" That unwitting bastard boy. ”

In the past, Ming Yan may have persuaded him, but today he just scolded Mrs. too lightly.

Xiang said to the master: "Your brother has been a little sluggish these days, you can persuade him, it's okay." ”

Xiang Mingyan responded, came to the backyard, and took the door blocking stick of Cishun Hall.

Passing by Xiang Mingjun's courtyard, he was practicing swords in the courtyard, and when he saw the murderous Xiang Mingyan at a glance, he was overjoyed and said, "Second brother? You're back? ”

Ming Yan took the more than one meter long blocking stick as a matching sword, saluted and walked forward.

Mingjun followed with the real sword: "Where are you going?" When did you come back? Have you ever seen your parents? Have you seen Ah Chun? ”

Ming Yan paused: "Big sister is back?" ”

"Well, it's good that Li Wei removed Ah Chun's name from the family tree and wrote Ah Yan's without conscience. Li's wives were all beheaded, and the female dependents were not in the palace. A few days ago, Daddy spent money to redeem Ah Chun back, and he is still raising it in Jinglou. Hey, how many days have you been back? ”

Ming Yan shook his head, and his answer was a little perfunctory, Ming Jun frowned and said: "Why are you still like that, you don't pay attention to your brother's talk to you, you don't call it ignoring the general affairs, you call it uneducated ......"

Ming Yan counted down from him, until he arrived at Aunt Han's yard, he stopped and said coldly: "Brother, Ming Yan really doesn't like to take care of housework, and he always feels meaningless. However," Ming Yan looked up at the two-story building, "I don't care about it now." ”

Mingjun was stunned by his momentum, and saw that he didn't turn his head back and walked in, and hurriedly followed.

After walking a few steps, thinking about whether it was right, he put the shuriken outside the courtyard gate again, and then he was busy following up.

Xiang Mingyan turned a blind eye to the maid who asked for peace, and even ignored the panicked Aunt Han, and walked to Xiang Mingze, who was sitting in the corner of the wall painting, as if he had entered a no-man's land.

He looked at the paintings, and they were orchids.

Ming Yan said: "I remember that the third brother has liked ink and blue since he was a child, and he is especially good at the gentleman orchid grass of flowers, but I don't know the gentlemanly nature of this orchid, how much did the third brother learn?" ”

Xiang Mingyan rarely spoke to Mingze.

Ming Yan is a son-in-law, born well, and has great knowledge, dare to ask such a young man, when he was young, there were a few who were not above the top.

Ming Yan is quite alienated from Ming Jun, not to mention the only Ming rule, Ming Yan naturally treats him as air.

In my impression, this is the first time Ming Yan has told Ming Ze about the truth, not "Happy New Year", "Happy Birthday", "I won't eat this" and the like.

Ming Ze paused, and a leaf of the orchid on this painting was broken.

Ming Yan asked: "Ming Ze, have you colluded with the Li family to betray Afu?" ”

Ming Jun next to him suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Ming Ze in disbelief.

He was cowardly, he was jealous, but he never hated because of jealousy. In Xiang Mingjun's heart, brothers and sisters are brothers and sisters, and no matter how big the hatred is, it should not turn against each other.

Ming Jun said: "Ming Ze, you betrayed Afu? ”

Aunt Han rushed over with a "whoop", and cried and shouted: "Son, son, don't wronged your younger brother, the emperor has never punished you, you two can't listen to the wind and rain!" Our mother and son have always been honest and responsible, and they will never harm the three girls! ”

The noise made Ming Jun's brain big, and he was about to say something, but he heard Ming Yan say sharply: "Don't mess around!" ”

Immediately, Aunt Han was silent.

Ming Jun was convinced, he found that Ming Yan just didn't make a move, and he was really a good hand when he made a move.

Ming Yan said: "Ming Ze, you and my brother are open and honest, have you done this." ”

In a piece of bluffing, Ming put down the pen.

After more than 20 years, he finally became the center of attention. The aunt was silent, the brother stared, and everyone was waiting for him to speak.

He laughed and said, "So what, what if it's not?" ”

Ming Yan saw that he was already in his heart like this, and said angrily: "If you do it, I will beat you first, and then send you to the government!" ”

was so frightened that Aunt Han pulled Ming Ze and cried again and again: "Say that you are not, you didn't do it!" ”

Ming Zeman said: "Beat me, which ancient book is it?" ”

Ming Yan said: "I beat you because you bullied my sister." ”

"Then the second brother, do you remember that I am your third brother?"

Ming Yan's face did not change: "In my heart, you have never been my third brother." ”

In a word, the face is like ashes.

Yes, where is he worthy of being the younger brother of Fu'an Shuangbi Xiang Mingyan?

But he didn't give up, a pair of eyes stared at Xiang Mingyan, and said hatefully: "Just because I was born by my aunt?" ”

Aunt Han shook.

Ming Yan's eyes stared at him fixedly: "No." It's because you're going to say something like that. ”

Ming Ze hated: "Don't think that you are a dragon and phoenix among people, behaving in the world, aren't you turning your elbow outward?" Madame thinks of you like this, didn't you go to Yuyang Mu's house first, you ....."

Ming Yan was tired of saying, "Did you do it?" I don't have that much to talk to you about. ”

Ming was stunned by him.

yes, he didn't want to say a word.

He wanted to quibble, but when he saw the languishing aunt, the dim studio, and the courtyard that had been silent all year round, he was really fed up with this kind of life.

"I did it."

Xiang Mingyan knocked on a bar.

Ming dodged sideways, and the drawing table cracked in half when he heard the sound, and the ink splattered on the ground.

Ming Yan didn't practice martial arts, and he didn't have much strength, so he didn't expect that such a stick could also knock on the wooden table. When I looked at the stubble, there was some rotten wood residue.

It must be a good show done to Mrs. Xiang, collecting some rags and sending them to disgust Aunt Han's mother and son.

Ming Yan suddenly felt so powerless, he really hated these chores.

Retribution is meaningless.

Ming Yan threw down the door stick and said, "You go and turn yourself in tomorrow, it can be regarded as raising your eyebrows and exhaling once." ”

After speaking, I went straight outside, and heard Aunt Han howling: "What are you raising your eyebrows, Ming Ze, you can't go, he is harming you....."

Ming Jun followed him silently, because he was a few steps slow to pick up the sword he had just lost, so he had to trot to catch up.

He looked at Ming Yan's unaware side face and said in a low voice: "In your heart, I have never been your big brother." ”

Ming Yan didn't hear clearly, turned his head and said, "What did the eldest brother say?" ”

Mingjun looked at his smooth face and eyes that were the same as Afu's, and shook his head.

The Xiang family has three sons and four daughters, only Ah Fu and Ming Yan have such gentle and affectionate, firm and bright eyes.

Xiang Yu and Xiang Yan are also beautiful, but because of these eyes, one is charming and the other is vulgar.

Mingjun and Mingze are also handsome, but because of these eyes, one is vulgar and the other is cowardly.

In fact, it's not because of these eyes, Mingjun knows.

He sighed and found that inadvertently, he had fallen behind Ming Yan again.

It's normal to be tall and walk fast, but Ming Yan is a person who never walks slower and waits for others.

In other words, there are few people who he feels is worth waiting for and willing to wait.
