"How long did I sleep?"

"It's been five days, and I've been having a high fever, I'll serve you chicken soup, black chicken soup is a big supplement......"

After a few more days, Apple was able to move freely and her eyes clear.

Birds whisper, nightshades choose to wither after kissing the window obsessively, shriveled leaves intimately hide the redness, and a broom rustles to break the silence.

She was barefoot and put on cloth shoes, and the cool breeze was blowing, but it was not cold.

After all, it's no longer the case.

Piling up the fallen leaves and flowers, Ping went back to the study and sat for a while, then picked up Chi Ran's letter and read it completely.

The epistle begins like this:

"Late apple. Use this name for the time being, and don't complain.

Secretly purchased this small courtyard, which can be regarded as the residence of the two of us after my brother got out in the future. Originally, I was going to tell you later, but now, I won't say anything about the blame, and when I'm done with things, I'll come and stay with you.

You should have seen Aunt Lin by now, she will take care of you. Eat well. ”

After that, a lot of miscellaneous things were written densely, and Chi Ran himself had seen or heard interesting anecdotes, with scribbled small words, "You don't have to read it in one go, and you don't have to reply, just pass the time and take a look." Hahaha, that being said, my silly sister must have read it all. Write at the end.

Late apples.

Eating apples?

Never mind......

She banged on the table, puffing out.

Annoyed for a moment, Apple spread out in her chair, her legs resting naturally on the desk, her slender limbs stretched gracefully, her long hair loose on her shoulders.

I did something stupid.

She raised her right hand and tilted her head.

At first, Apple thought she was really burned by the fire, but when she spread her fingers, there was no sign of the fire.

This kind of trivial matter is not enough to complain to Chi Ran, so she didn't mention it.

On the day of the fire in the alley, although Apple hid in the crockpot haystack, she encountered the attackers who had already burned and killed in the middle of the night.

The figure flashed, and Apple's nerves seemed to snap in an instant, and the right side of her body was violently hot.

The man nearby was about to set the fire and was about to start it, when he saw a corner glowing and smoking, and a girl with a short knife in her hand jumped over.

The two of them struggled for a while, and the strip of cloth on Apple's right hand burned out, and she slapped her palm against the wall—the red bricks and tiles became even redder for a while.

Unexpectedly, Ping returned to Lizhi County after four years and participated in the burning of his hometown...... Later, the man's accomplice approached, and Apple naturally chose to flee.

The woman in the study sat upright and began to sharpen the ink.

There are a few pieces of letter paper on the table, the first line is "Chi Ran", and the yellowish paper often has only a few sentences, and the handwriting is very different.

In addition to being able to write, I have more tricks in writing, and I shouldn't have any other strengths.

Apple tidied it up and dated it and put it in the envelope. After a moment's thought, she put the letter in a drawer.

Since Chi Ran said "no need to reply", he didn't reply.

She knew she was a little more serious.

As an elder brother, Chi Ran is always down-to-earth and thoughtful, he not only takes care of himself, but also takes care of Ping's young age, often carrying heavy burdens and laughing at them. Correspondingly, there is something to hide. What one person does is not necessarily good, not necessarily bad.

Ping dimly estranged Chi Ran.

"Chi Ran."

Every time he heard Ping call him like this, he had no choice but to correct: "Ping, I'm my brother." ”

As a fifteen-year-old child, some unformed thoughts emerge, and Ping thinks that she must also learn to take responsibility, and at the same time reject Chi Ran's "favor".

The storyteller always tells the legendary story with his eyebrows fluttering, and the wind, fire, thunder and lightning are buzzing, and the gods are all in everything, and the heart and lungs are all in one sword...... Maybe she controlled some kind of immortal spell, but she didn't use it correctly?

concealed his physical abnormality, and took risks to participate in training, and in the end, let Chi Ran end up.

Chi Ran, brother, arrange everything, Apple just needs to wait obediently and patiently.

Without Chi Ran, she is nothing, and it is even difficult for her to live alone.

It's false to say not to be embarrassed.

It is hypocritical to say that you don't hate yourself for being incompetent.

Everyone has secrets, carefully bury them, and be eager to spit them out, provided that nothing is paid.

Ping closed her eyes, as if she had returned to a dream, and the world full of crows and cracks made her mind slightly unconscious. Dispelling the gloom, she saw Chi Ran, who was always gentle and hardworking, standing in a blurred halo and smiling.

……

"Brother, I'm bleeding!" The pants are a little red.

He suddenly took off his coat to wrap her around and took her to the neighborhood for help: "Grandma Wang, Pingping she's uh - please help her wash up, trouble, thank you." ”

……

"Brother, what are you doing?"

"You go out first, I'll change my clothes......" he turned around in embarrassment.

Ping blinked, pointed at Chi Ran, and said, "What is that?" ”

……

"Brother?"

"My brother is here, what's wrong?" He crouched down and looked up at Apple.

Thirteen-year-old Apple leaned in: "Sleep with me." ”

"No, Apple is a big girl, you can't always be with your brother - okay, you can't sleep with you."

The two of them chatted at a short distance. The dilapidated roof can be seen flickering on and off.

When I woke up the next day, the two were wrapped in a quilt, and Chi Ran's shoulders were cold and slightly sore. Apple curled into a ball, her head resting on his chest.

……

Chi Ran once said to her: "Practicing calligraphy, practicing martial arts, poetry, cooking, etiquette...... Brother can teach you. Even if there is something I don't know you want to learn, my brother will learn it and teach you again. ”

Brother, I can't stay behind you forever.

Fingertips rubbed, and a flame flashed.
