Chapter 261: Brother

Huo Roufeng is very sad, can't she grow up in this life? Is it so hard to grow up? She hasn't bought the perfume of Hongmao Country to give to her sister, and she hasn't opened the peace card for Zhanhuai...... She can't grow up.

Huo Roufeng couldn't laugh anymore, and cried out loud.

Huo Jiang, who was standing behind her, was startled, and Huo Jiu, who was still nagging, suddenly cried, and the cry was deafening.

Huo Jiang couldn't remember how many years he hadn't heard a child's cry, and his first reaction was that this cry would frighten the beast, it was too dangerous.

He didn't think about it, he rushed to the front with an arrow step, stretched out his arms to protect Huo Roufeng behind him.

All this happened too fast, and before Huo Roufeng could react, he was blocked by Huo Jiang's arm, and almost at the same time, the leopard let out a howl, and then pounced on Huo Jiang.

Huo Jiang said in his heart that it was over, he should have died a long time ago, but Huo Jiu was still a teenager, and he couldn't let Huo Jiu die with him.

A red figure appeared in front of his eyes, if she knew that he died to save Huo Jiu, maybe she would have a little less contempt for him.

A long-lost smile appeared on the corner of Huo Jiang's lips, he didn't dare to ask her for forgiveness, he was not worthy.

A fishy aura peculiar to a beast came to his face, and Huo Jiang lost consciousness.

......

The east road of the Guogong Mansion, Zhanhuai is still the first time to come here, since he returned to the capital, he is usually on the west road, and the people on the east road don't even know that there is an extra master in the house.

There is a secret door on the west road, which leads directly to the Hanyuan on the east road, and Zhanhuai came from there.

Zhanyu is to live in Hanyuan.

Before Zhan Yu married the eldest princess of Fangyi, the Fujian Mansion in the capital had been vacant for more than 100 years, and the successive generations of the Min Kingdom were in accordance with the holy decree to enter Beijing once every three years.

At the beginning, there were two or three hundred people in the house, and the number of people would be uneven, and there was no master in the house all the year round, so it was inevitable that there would be trouble, so the successive generations of the Fujian Guogong would cut down the manpower, and in this generation, before Zhanyu entered Beijing, there were only fifty or sixty people in the huge Guogong Mansion.

Although Zhanyu is still the eldest princess, but according to the royal ancestral system, the eldest princess usually lives in the princess's mansion, and she is not allowed to stay overnight unless she is called to the horse.

"Second brother, have a good New Year." Zhanhuai solemnly gave Zhan Yu a big gift.

Zhanyu smiled and took out two red envelopes from his arms: "One is mine, the other is the eldest princess, she is a year older, and she should act more steadily." ”

Zhan Huai thanked him and took the two red envelopes, which were fluttering, and they were obviously silver tickets.

Since Zhan Yu entered the capital, every year people will send New Year's gifts back to Fujian, and the gifts are all the attendants in the eldest princess's mansion.

Zhan Yu said: "The eldest princess said that she wanted to see you, but I stopped her, and now is not the time." ”

Zhan Huai snorted, he thought about it, raised his head again, and looked at Zhan Yu with blazing eyes: "Second brother, if one day, our family and the emperor tear their faces, what will happen to you and the eldest princess?" ”

Zhan Yu was stunned, he didn't expect Zhan Huai to suddenly ask this, he sighed and smiled bitterly: "What else?" From the day of the Lord, didn't our whole family, my father, my mother, and me, have been prepared for this a long time ago? ”

Zhan Huai looked at Zhan Yu, his father once said to his mother that since Zhan Yu entered Beijing, he should have given birth to one less son.

Perhaps, if there is such a day, the second brother will definitely die.

Zhan Yu is in the capital, named Shang Zhu, but he is actually a hostage, if the Zhan family and the emperor tear their faces, unless he can escape back to Fujian, there will be only a dead end.

Zhan Huai felt sad in his heart, he didn't dare to look at Zhan Yu anymore, and hurriedly lowered his head.

His eyes were clear and bright, even a little shadow would be revealed, and at the moment before he lowered his head, Zhan Yu saw sadness in his eyes.

Zhan Yu stood up, walked up to Zhan Huai, and patted him lightly on the shoulder. His hand is not strong, and it falls on his shoulder like a breeze, unlike his father's hand, which can pat people on the back with every stroke.

Zhanhuai thought of this, the corners of his mouth hooked again, he raised his eyelids, and asked, "Second brother, do you miss your father and mother?" ”

The year before last, when the Duke of Min entered Beijing, Zhanyu had seen his father, but he had not seen his mother for many years since he entered Beijing.

He smiled: "Last month, my mother wrote to her that she was in good health, and the two birds sent by the eldest princess were very interesting. ”

Zhanhuai also smiled and said: "My mother has raised a troupe, Yiyi is all day long, sometimes she also wears clothes with water sleeves, and sings together with the little drama in the house, the eldest sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law want to go in to ask for peace, but they are afraid of disturbing her Yaxing." ”

Zhanyu laughed and said: "When I was a child, my mother was still young, and I had to compete with my father every day for the martial arts hall, once in the morning, my father got up half an hour early, and just played half a set of boxing in the martial arts hall, and my mother came, regardless of whether my father was still practicing boxing, she danced with a knife, and the double knife danced like a dragon and a phoenix, and forced my father out of the martial arts hall. ”

It was the first time Zhan Huai had heard about this, and he said curiously: "No wonder, I learned martial arts in the open space behind the house, and no one used it in the martial arts hall at home...... Mother doesn't need it. ”

Zhan Yu sighed silently in his heart, since the death of the fourth brother, his mother's temperament has also changed a lot, it seems that in the year of the death of the fourth brother, the mother put her double knife into the cabinet and no longer took it out.

Today is the third day of the Lunar New Year, or in the middle of the year, Zhanyu didn't want to mention those sad things again, he asked Zhanhuai with a smile: "Before you came, did the family already start to discuss your marriage, do you have eyebrows?" Which girl is it? ”

Zhanhuai's ears were red again, and he said embarrassedly: "There is a door-to-door proposal, and my mother has given it back, you know, my father doesn't care about the affairs of the back house, my mother sent the matchmaker back, and my father laughed when he heard about it, and said that if my mother is not satisfied, the new daughter-in-law will come in the future, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will not be in harmony, and the house will be uneasy, but it is not beautiful." ”

Zhanyu couldn't help but feel a little envious, the eldest brother and the third brother's relatives were all given to Zhang Luo by their mothers, but they were not just like what my father said, they married women who were satisfied with their mothers, and the fifth was born to their mothers when they were middle-aged, and they were the most precious ones, and they were afraid that they would be more picky when choosing a daughter-in-law.

He said, "Mother, which family did you fall in love with?" ”

Zhanhuai shook his head: "No, my mother said she didn't care." ”
