The sunset was dim inch by inch, and before Min Yanshi had walked through the corridor, it was dark.

He took a deep breath to calm himself, straightened his back, and strode toward his grandfather's study.

At this hour, the kitchen of the Duke's Mansion was already in the courtyard of Zhang Luo tonight, and the eldest lady came over and showed her face, and was sent back by her mother-in-law, saying that she did not want the children to be restrained.

The eldest lady didn't like the children in this house, she didn't care at all, on the way back to Xinghuatang, she met Fuyi and Yunzhi together, and the two stood respectfully on the side of the road.

In order to give Fuyi a breath, Yunzhi spat at her aunt's back and stretched out her head, but Fuyi hurriedly stopped her and pulled her away.

I was comforted and worried, and when I was far away, I said, "What if they happen to look back and see them?" You and her are innocent and innocent, if you offend her for me, how can I live in my heart? ”

"That's not just angry with her, she's not happy, I'll be happy for you." Yun Zhi said domineeringly, "Anyway, she can't do anything to me, I still remember the hatred of my eldest sister here, so don't take it all on you." ”

mentioned the eldest sister, Fu Yi said: "The county lord will come tomorrow to give the gift of the third cousin of He Xi, and we will know whether the princess is willing to see the eldest sister, so wait patiently." ”

Yun Zhi rolled up his sleeves and said: "One yard is one yard, I have to reason with Zhu Pingluo tonight, and the matter of the eldest sister will be discussed tomorrow." ”

Fu Yi smiled: "I met my eldest cousin for a while, do I think you are still powerful?" On weekdays, when I see my eldest cousin, I am honest. ”

Yun Zhihao was not convinced, and gestured with his fist: "In front of grandma, why does he dare to beat me?" He didn't protect his daughter-in-law well and let her be bullied, did he still have a point? ”

After entering the inner courtyard, the sisters had already arrived, and Ping Jue could often come out now, not to mention that today was the dinner passed by the old lady.

Ping Li was taking him to tease the parrot under the eaves, and tinkering with small branches, so that the bird fluttered its wings and its feathers flew all over the sky.

Huizhi came out of the house and scolded her brother: "Don't do something good, just take Pingjue naughty, don't teach Pingjue badly." ”

Pingli was impatient and complained to his sister: "You said that you are young, you always look like a housekeeper, I am your brother, if I am a younger brother, I will not be annoyed to death by you?" ”

Huizhi ran to Fuyi's side to complain: "Sister Yan, look at my brother." ”

Yunzhi and Pingli never discriminate between big and small, but Pingli was a little polite when he saw Fuyi, smiled politely, and took Pingjue into the house.

Huizhi said: "Sister Yan is still powerful, even my brother is convinced, my brother is not good at studying by himself, but he respects him the most." ”

Yun Zhi said with a smile: "You can pull it down, just count the fact that he likes to bully Mr. the most in the school, and he plays tricks on people all day long, and the bamboo boards have been broken by the third uncle." ”

They entered the door together, and the young lady and the child had arrived, and at this moment, they had changed from the day, and their faces were full of complexion and smiles.

The young lady whispered to Fuyi and Yunzhi: "Mother didn't embarrass me anymore, after you left, she also talked to me for a while, saying that she was so angry with the second brother that she was fascinated, not really at me, but also knew that I was intimate, so she had no scruples and asked me to take care of me more." Naturally, I also feel sorry for my mother, why is she not counted down by my father every day. ”

Yunzhi was not angry: "She coaxes you today, and beats you tomorrow, my sister-in-law is too soft-hearted and good-hearted, don't call her a bully, it's a big deal to move out with my brother, it's clear and quiet." ”

The young lady was anxious, and hurriedly said: "Don't mention these words, the family is harmonious and beautiful, Yun'er, if you really feel sorry for me, your brother will come back in a while, don't say these words to anger him, our husband and wife are fine." ”

Similarly, Fu Yi has also been persuaded, the affairs between husband and wife, it is best for others not to interfere easily, the natural rhyme is good-hearted, but it is the good intention to do bad things, which is the most helpless.

And Zhu Pingluo is really busy today, in addition to official business, he also continued to send people to look for his younger brother, although he was rumored by his subordinates to go straight to his grandmother's house after returning, he still went to visit his mother first, and then came to Zhu Rong's small courtyard to congratulate his younger brother.

Seeing him lying on the bed honestly, he couldn't help laughing: "As soon as I entered the door, I thought you were tied to the bed, it's really rare, when did you become so honest?" ”

Zhu Rong said: "Naturally, someone tied me up, and the eldest brother couldn't see it." ”

Ping Luo was disgusted, and said angrily: "You said that girl? I don't think Miss Yan will tie you, and when you lose your arms and legs, people will not be uncommon. ”

"Brother, I have something I want to say to you." Zhu Rong had no intention of joking, his face was serious, and he struggled to sit up.

Ping Luo stepped forward and helped him and asked, "What's the matter?" Hurry up and say, grandma is waiting for me to have dinner. ”

"Did you know that there was an accident in Dongyuan today?" Zhu Rong asked, "Auntie wanted to beat her sister-in-law, but Yunzhi rushed over and stopped her, and the mother and daughter had a big quarrel, turning Dongyuan upside down." ”

Ping Luo's eyes darkened: "I know some, but it's just for the second brother's business, my mother is not happy, and it is not pleasing to see anyone, these days." ”

Zhu Rong asked: "It's been like this for the past few days, but the eldest brother doesn't protect some sisters-in-law?" ”

Ping Luo was asked, got up awkwardly, frowned, and said, "Little child, don't care about ......"

But this perfunctory sentence, even he can't say it himself, and his younger brother has long been an adult.

And the evasion at this moment is perfunctory, and he made the same choice after thinking that he had done his best.

"Actually, every day when I go home, I will ask your sister-in-law if she is embarrassed by her mother." Ping Luo said, "She never complains, she always reassures me that I don't care, do I live up to her wishes and mess with my mother?" ”

Zhu Rong asked: "But for so many years, the eldest sister-in-law has been bullied by the aunt, and the eldest brother clearly knows, why should he deceive himself?" ”

Ping Luo said angrily: "You are a big man, what are you doing in charge of women's affairs?" ”

Zhu Rong did not back down: "The eldest brother clearly has the intention to protect his sister-in-law, but he doesn't do anything, knowing that his sister-in-law is embarrassed by his mother-in-law, because she has a few words of comfort, he deceives himself as if nothing happened?" If Yunzhi hadn't stopped her today, the eldest sister-in-law would have been beaten, and when the eldest brother came back, she would have been covered in bruises. ”

Ping Luo said: "I'm not at home, how do you want me to take care of the family's affairs, Rong'er, you don't have a family, you don't even have a mother, you can't understand my helplessness at all." Do you want me to leave this house with your sister-in-law? ”

Zhu Rong was not impatient, and said very calmly: "At least, the eldest brother should let the sister-in-law have the courage to tell you that she was bullied." ”

Ping Luo sat down in a daze, and clenched his hands into fists: "Yes, I didn't protect her, Rong'er...... Starting a family is not an easy task. ”

Zhu Rong said: "I shouldn't have interfered in the affairs of my eldest brother and sister-in-law, but today Yunzhi locked herself and her sister-in-law in the house, and if someone has to go to find you back, I understand what Yunzhi is thinking." ”

Ping Luo looked at him, as if he didn't believe it, what else could the frizzy little sister think about: "Yunzhi? ”

Zhu Rong said: "Big brother, forgive me for offending, I guess that Yunzhi doesn't want to look at her eldest brother and become a husband like her second uncle in the future." ”

Ping Luo's heart shook suddenly, it seemed to be an inexplicable sentence, but he could understand it.

In the dining room of the inner courtyard, Ping Li told his grandmother and younger siblings about the interesting things he had encountered in Guozijian, which made a room full of laughter, and Ping Luo listened to his sister's laughter as soon as he entered the courtyard door.

"Eldest son, you can count it." The maids under the eaves greeted them and said, "Come in, old lady is concerned." ”

"Call the second lady out, don't alarm the old lady." Ping Luo instructed, "I'll wait for her outside the courtyard gate." ”

The subordinates looked at each other and didn't dare to ask more, so they asked the eldest prince to wait a while, so that they could go and pass the word.

Yunzhi was laughing so hard that her stomach hurt, and suddenly someone whispered in her ear, I heard that it was the eldest brother who came back to see her alone, and the person who was still arrogant in the first place couldn't help but be a little cowardly.

She whispered to Fu Yi: "My brother is waiting for me outside, I will go to see him, you listen carefully, if I call someone, you have to come to save me immediately, I am afraid that he will beat me." ”

Fu Yi smiled: "Go ahead, how can the eldest cousin beat you." ”

Yun Zhi saw that her grandmother was talking with Pingjue in her arms, so she quietly withdrew, settled down in front of the door, walked out with a domineering face, and rushed out of the courtyard gate.

"Where are you going?" Ping Luo called out to her by the door, Yun Zhi stopped his steps and turned around stiffly, "You didn't call me out." ”

Ping Luo looked serious: "What you, me, you also talk like this in front of your grandmother, no big or small." ”

"Then you are not the same age as grandma......" Yunzhi wanted to talk back, but when she saw her brother raise her hand, she was so frightened that she took a few steps back and covered her face and said, "If you dare to hit me, I will call it." ”

But my brother's hand just helped the hairpin on her sideburns, and reproached: "It's a big girl, and she has no shape all day long, and I hear your laughter here, and you see that the hairpin is crooked, so happy?" ”

Yun Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and said obediently: "It's Pingli who teases us." ”

Ping Luo said: "That's also a naughty little thing, wait for me to clean him up in a few days." ”

Yun Zhi stood in a regular manner, his heart turned and turned, thinking about how to tactfully remind his brother to protect his sister-in-law, but he was curious about what his brother was doing when he asked him to come out alone.

Ping Luo looked at his sister lovingly, and said sincerely: "Brother wants to compensate you, I'm the eldest brother, I didn't take a good look at your second brother, let him run away from home, and didn't protect you, always making you reprimanded by your father." And your sister-in-law, I really wronged her, thank you for protecting her on weekdays, and protecting her today, my family Yun'er has really grown up. ”

Yunzhi's eyes were red, in fact, the room was full of laughter just now, the brothers and sisters were there, the eldest brother didn't come back on an errand, but the second brother didn't know where he was, I don't know if he was full, and in the hot summer, there was a place to shelter from the rain.

"Don't cry, I'm scolding you?" Ping Luo was distressed again, and said seriously, "When I get to my grandmother, I don't want to mention this matter again, your sister-in-law will not be able to hang on her face, she is a sister-in-law, you have to take care of her decency." But my brother promises you that I won't become a person like my father, and I won't let your sister-in-law be wronged again, and my mother will bully her in the future, I will definitely stand up and reason with my mother, forgive my eldest brother, don't be angry with me anymore, okay? ”
