Before going out, Ah Yu was still a little groggy, thinking that he was going to be tormented by the wind and cold again as Wen Ru remembered.

After walking around outside, she became more and more sober.

However, she looked down at the thin dog following her legs, and then at Pei Yin and Su Mingzhe opposite, but for a while she couldn't tell which one was the reason.

Wen Ning had already walked to Ah Yu's side at this time, took Fu Bao's dog leash from the hand of the maid on the side, and waved people to retreat.

Only then did he say: "When my brother and Brother Xie left before, I asked Brother Pei to take care of me and Maomao, and if we have any homework that we don't understand, sometimes we will take it to ask Brother Pei." ”

"On Chinese New Year's Eve this year, my father and mother took us out to play, and I had already discussed with Mao Mao that I was going to pay New Year's greetings to the Pei family's brother, but I happened to meet the Pei family's brother halfway!"

Since it was encountered, there was naturally no need to pay a special visit.

They weren't ready to stand on the side of the street to catch up, so they all went to the restaurant next to them.

After entering the box, Fan Ximao felt that the room was very stuffy, and the impermeable environment made him a little uncomfortable, so he ran to the window to ventilate.

"When I opened the window, I saw my sister standing in the middle of the crowd." Fan Ximao stepped forward and smiled in front of Ah Yu, and his whole body was filled with the aura of 'Sister come and praise me'.

Ah Yu did not disappoint him either.

smiled and touched the little tug on the child's head, "I just looked up and saw you!" ”

She looked at Pei Yin opposite: "I didn't know that Ning'er went to Brother Pei to ask for homework on weekdays, if I had known, I should have thanked Brother Pei for ......."

is completely different from the bitter hatred when they met last time, Pei Yin looks much more normal now, although because of his frail health, he is still wearing a thick cloak in the warm room where the brazier is placed, but the spirit of the whole person looks very good.

After he went back that day, he thought about it carefully, no matter what the reason for the difference in the cognition between him and General Pei, it had nothing to do with Ah Yu.

The little girl is someone else's spoiled child, but because of his father, he was forced to bear the sorrow of parting for so many summers later, and the Wen family held her in the palm of their hands, and would never tell her about his father's rumors, and his careful thoughts were impossible to talk about.

If she was really the girl of the Pei family, how could Mrs. Wen San and the others protect her so carefully, shouldn't they have told his father about her life experience early!

Pei Yin laughed at himself for being too naïve, but he was also glad that his speculations were not told to too many people.

As for Xie Huai'an, who is far away at the border, let's skip him for the time being.

Over the years, Pei Yin has always regarded Ah Yu as her own sister, although sometimes she will be a little jealous of Ah Yu because of the difference in treatment between the two, but now that she has known the truth, the former jealousy has become a rootless Ping, which is not counted at all.

However, my sister can still have it.

Su Mingzhe shook the folding fan and looked at Ah Yin with a smile: "It's not too late to know now, how does Miss Wen plan to thank Pei Yin?" I heard that you have a lot of experience in food, so it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, and today I will take Pei Yin out to see what is delicious in Kyoto? ”

When he said this, he didn't think too much, but before the words fell, the folding fan in his hand was snatched away by Pei Yin, and he was glared at.

Pei Yin put the folding fan on the square table in front of him, and said disapprovingly: "There are many people going out to play on Chinese New Year's Eve, and before we entered the restaurant, the street was already a scene of rubbing shoulders. If you have a business trip at that time, you have a way to remedy it. ”

"Don't talk too much about that nonsense......"

Besides, he helped Wen Ning and Fan Ximao explain their homework, which was entrusted by Xie Huai'an, and Wen Xie and his family also gave him a gift according to Mr. 's specifications a year ago, so he didn't have to ask Ah Yu to give another gift.

Su Mingzhe was suddenly snatched away from the folding fan, and he was still a little dazed.

But he soon realized that his words were indeed very inappropriate.

There are many ways for the ladies in Kyoto to become famous, and it is usually widely known for their fame or beauty, just like Xi Rou, who is already married. At this time, he said that Ah Yin had a lot of experience in food, and when he said it, he inexplicably felt a few grades lower, and it was no wonder that Pei Yin would stare at him.

He smiled and took a piece of dim sum from the plate on the table: "The dim sum in this restaurant tastes good, not much worse than Zhichun Hefang......

Wen Ning glanced at Su Mingzhe silently, and whispered in Ah Yu's ear: "Sister, the one on the table is the dim sum from Chunhefang, which I specially asked the little guy in the restaurant to buy." ”

The voice was not loud, and Ah Yu and Fan Ximao on the side could hear it clearly.

Fan Ximao's eyes looking at Su Mingzhe were also a little strange, and this look really made him see that it was unusual.

"Brother Su, you look so familiar, I seem to have seen you somewhere......" Fan Ximao said as he leaned towards Su Mingzhe, if it weren't for Su Mingzhe pushing him with his hand, he would have almost touched people's faces, "I feel like I've seen you somewhere before, maybe it's not you, it's just a person who looks very similar to you." ”

As Pei Yin's best friend, Su Mingzhe goes in and out with Pei Yin most of the time on weekdays.

Even when Wen Ning and Fan Ximao came to Pei Yin to ask about their homework, nine times out of ten, he followed Pei Yin's side.

So Fan Ximao has seen him, shouldn't it be a normal thing!

The corners of Su Mingzhe's mouth rose, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "I said Maomao, you can't do this!" ”

"The last time you went to Pei's Mansion to ask for homework, you happened to meet Pei Yin drinking medicine and resting, and it was I who worked tirelessly to explain your homework to the two children. A young child like you, even if you can't remember things when you endorse a book, why do you have the same poor memory in recognizing people? ”

Fan Ximao shook his head, trying to explain: "No, no, I mean that before I met Brother Su, I also saw a person who looked very similar to Brother Su......"

The words he explained were messy, and Su Mingzhe didn't understand them anyway.

And what do you know people who look similar to him, he is a little child, and his family goes back and forth between the Xie family and the academy on weekdays, and occasionally goes to the Wen family for a walk, and every time he sees a fixed number of people, where to find someone who looks similar to Su Mingzhe.

Ah Yu understood the meaning of Fan Ximao's words.

She sometimes can't tell the difference between herself and Wen Ruru, especially in the first few years, she often regards Wen Ruru's memory as something she has personally experienced, that is, in recent years, her experience has finally been very different from Wen Ruru, which makes her barely distinguish the difference between the two.

In Fan Ximao's memory, he used to be a young child, and now he has grown up from a milk doll, and it is normal for two different memories to be confused.

Just as Ah Yu was about to help explain, Fan Ximao over there had already talked to Su Mingzhe about other things, and it was also because she was half a beat slower to speak, otherwise there would be another explanation if she returned to the previous topic.

The two of them had a good chat, and they would laugh from time to time.

Pei Yin stared at Ah Yu for a long time, and suddenly said, "Ah Yu has thought about how to thank me?" ”

This brings us back to the beginning.

Ah Yu turned his head to look at Pei Yin, he was very puzzled in his heart, and after a long pause, he said carefully: "Brother Pei likes ancient paintings, I have a picture of Li Songzhi's crane, Brother said that Li Songzhi is quite famous in the painting world, and it should be easy to paint." ”

Li Songzhi was a saint in the painting world hundreds of years ago, famous for painting cranes, and his paintings are hard to find in Kyoto.

Pei Yin smiled.

"Ah Yu wants to do what he wants, but I don't lack calligraphy and paintings, only a sister, if Ah Yu is willing, it is better to call me a brother!" It can be regarded as the fulfillment of his dream for many years.

It was as if a piece of pie had suddenly fallen from the sky, but it was inexplicably panicking.

Ah Yu was silent for a moment, she didn't think there was anything wrong with calling Pei Yin's brother, but after being specially proposed, it was very unpleasant to think about it.

Suddenly, there was silence in the box.

Wen Ning looked left and right, and said in a small voice: "But didn't my sister keep calling you Brother Pei?" We originally regarded Brother Pei as a brother, but now that we say it, it feels a little weird! ”

Su Mingzhe picked up the folding fan in front of Pei Yin, opened the folding fan with one hand, slapped it lightly, and said, "The thank you gift you want sounds weird, could it be that you want to marry Miss Wen as a brother and sister of the opposite sex!" ”

"This is quite an interesting thing...... Su Mingzhe closed the folding fan and tapped it twice on the palm of his right hand, "I have only heard people talk about swearing when I was talking about books before, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes." If you're going to marry as a brother or sister of the opposite sex, then you're going to have to take me with you, and even if you don't count it in the ranks, let me see the whole process of worshipping......"

It's that he didn't think it through enough.

Pei Yin lowered his head, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and when he looked up again, he had already returned to normal.

He said, "Didn't I watch you always urging Ah Yu to prepare a thank you gift for me!" Where can they prepare these for their children's families, it is natural to ask them to do something simple and within their ability, such as calling their brother, even if they give a thank you gift......"

Su Mingzhe covered the lower half of his face with a folding fan, but his exposed eyes narrowed slightly.

Today's Pei Yin is very weird.

But no matter how weird it is, it's still the same person.

When Ah Yu heard this, his heart was relieved.

Probably because Pei Yin's image in her mind is very good, even though his explanation still sounds like there are many loopholes, she still takes it seriously.

It is not difficult to call 'brother' softly.

Pei Yin's hand in his sleeve suddenly froze, and his eyes became softer and softer, although the reality was not what he imagined, but his wish for many years was finally realized, of course he was happy.

The chatter in the restaurant only lasted for a while, and the night outside gradually deepened, and the plush lying at Ah Yu's feet carefully rubbed her legs and moved to the light.

Ah Yu looked down at Fu Bao's sleepy appearance, and couldn't help but yawn a little.

Pei Yin on the opposite side saw it and quickly said: "Although today is Chinese New Year's Eve, it is not good to spend the whole night on the street outside, it is late at this time, we might as well send these three little ones home first!" ”

Before Su Mingzhe could speak, Fan Ximao, who was sitting next to him, stepped forward.

said: "Brother Pei can send the three of us to the Wen Mansion, I have already told my aunt before I go out, I will be a guest at the Wen family today." ”

In fact, Mrs. Xie didn't agree at first, but she couldn't help rolling on the ground, and finally had to agree to his request.

Pei Yin nodded, not surprised by this.

Others may not know, but he knew early on that the Wen Xie family was going to get married, and when Wen Huan and the Song family girl got married in the spring, Xie Huai'an and Ah Yu's relationship would be settled quickly.

So it's normal for the two families to be closer.

Although ordinary people will not run to other people's homes on Chinese New Year's Eve, Fan Ximao's situation is still special.

The Fan family has no other master in Kyoto, and he will only stay in the Xie family even if it is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the Xie family and the Wen family are other people's homes for him, although there is a distant relationship between the two, but in the final analysis, it is the same.

They sent Ah Yu and the others all the way to the gate of Wen Mansion, and watched Ah Yu and them enter the door before turning around and leaving.

On the way home, Su Mingzhe bumped Pei Yin with his shoulder and asked him in a low voice: "You look really weird today, just now we obviously skipped the topic of thanks, but you suddenly asked someone else's little girl for a thank-you gift, which almost made her unable to get off the stage." ”

He always couldn't understand Pei Yin's attitude towards Ah Yu.

To be honest, sometimes he is extraordinarily perfunctory, saying that he is perfunctory, and he does not allow others to speak ill of Ah Yu, and he can't even listen to a little ridicule, which is very strange.

Pei Yin looked up at the dark sky, there were snowflakes splashing on his face, and the cold touch made people wake up quickly.

"What's so strange about it? Am I still not worthy of her brother? ”

He smiled and said, "Wouldn't it be nice if she called me brother, and I would sweep away all obstacles in her way?" ”

Su Mingzhe shook his head silently, his friends were really getting stranger and stranger.

Wen Yu is a little girl who is pampered by the Wen family in the palm of her hand, and she has a broad future, where does she need Pei Yin to clear the obstacles for her.

Pei Yin naturally saw Su Mingzhe's disapproval, but some things are really not as simple as they seem on the surface.

It's like the person who deliberately revealed the relationship between his father and Ah Yu to him before, such a person is hidden in the dark, but the people of the Wen family don't know anything about it, how can they plan for Ah Yu in advance!

Naturally, he still needs to take action personally.
