Chapter 016: Harboring a Ghost Fetus (1)
When my brother found me, the story on stage had come to an end.
He sat across from me and said, "I went to the Red Smell Pavilion to find you, and they said you weren't there. ”
I glanced at him, but there was no response.
The tea on the table had been sitting for too long, and it was already cold, so I picked up the teapot and changed it again.
But I heard the senior brother sigh: "Scarlet, don't be angry." ”
After pouring the tea, I held the cup in my hand, raised my eyebrows and asked, "Angry?" Why should I be angry? ”
Senior brother was speechless for a moment, and looked at me speechlessly.
I took a sip of tea and said, "It's a thankless matter, it's a matter of seeking skin with a tiger, someone is willing to do it for me, it's no better, why should I be angry?" ”
The senior brother raised his hand and made a gesture of surrender: "I know it's wrong, you say, how can I forgive me?" ”
The scene at this time is no different from when I was in the teacher, I have a strange personality since I was a child, and my sister is irritable and rude, only my brother is a rare good person, and he has always been patient to tolerate the two of us.
No matter what happens, no matter how my sister and I bully him, he always cleans up the mess for us with a helpless and pampered face, and when I think about it, in this world, no one should be able to tolerate me to such a point like my senior brother.
Seeing that I didn't speak, he said again: "I'm just worried about your situation, you should also know that the king's least favorite is the warlock, and now that you are in the Hongwen Pavilion, and you have found such a thing, it is difficult to guarantee that the king will not be jealous of you in the future, if you have an accident, how should I explain to the master?" ”
"Senior brother, you always say that if something happens to me, how should I explain it to Master, is it just because of Master what you have done?"
"Of course not."
The senior brother replied without thinking: "You and I, we have known each other for twenty years, we are not brothers, but better than brothers, even if there is no master, I will protect you with my life." ”
"That ......"
I asked, "If one day, I have a conflict with Master, will you help me or stand on Master's side?" ”
The senior brother sighed, very puzzled: "How can you have any conflict with Master?" ”
He looked at me carefully, and said, "Master, he is an old man, he is usually a little stubborn and strict, but when he is old, you should take care of him a little more, don't worry about him." ”
I still sat motionless and asked, "Senior brother, you haven't answered my question yet." ”
Seeing that I persisted, Senior Brother sighed and said, "Master has the grace of nurturing me, no matter what happens, I feel that Master has other painstaking intentions. ”
Hearing his answer, a bitter smile tugged at the corner of my lips: "Yes......"
I heard my senior brother ask again: "Scarlet, you are so strange today, you told your junior sister that day, Master, he went out on a long trip, it really ...... Did you travel far away? ”
Seeing his suspicions, I smiled again, revealing a sincere face: "Of course, why do you ask that?" ”
The senior brother shook his head and replied: "It's nothing, it's just that I've been flustered lately, and I always dream that Master is standing in front of my bed covered in blood, you say, Master is so old, how can he suddenly want to travel far away, and besides, it's been so long, why don't you even have a letter?" ”
I took the jade flute in my hand and said, "Master's thoughts, how can we guess that we may be delayed on the way." ”
