The daytime finally passed in Xue Chengyi's ardent anticipation, and at dinnertime, Xue Chengyi endured the excitement in his heart, hurriedly finished dinner, and ran back to the house like a monkey.

Master Xue was not surprised by this situation, he just gently put down his chopsticks and instructed Xue Chengyu: "Go out at night and come back early, you take care of Yi'er more, remember to let Yi'er personally send Shao Er back to the house when you come back, don't let Master Luo feel that Yi'er is unreliable."

The last sentence that Master Xue said really scared Xue Chengyu, Xu Hong only told Fu Bo that they were going out at night but didn't say who they were going out with, although he knew that his father knew a lot of things, but he didn't expect to know so clearly, presumably the matter between himself and Xu Hong couldn't be covered by paper, but Master Xue didn't say it.

"You, you know everything?"

Master Xue just smiled, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of food for Xue Chengyu, and said lightly: "Yi'er's feelings for Shaotian are not a day, but I don't know if the two of them are in love or just childhood sweethearts."

"The second brother and the younger sister are very likely to be the former, but this is hard to say, let's wait for the second brother to be older and then consider marrying, it's still too early."

Master Xue thought for a while and agreed: "This is reasonable." Then the voice changed, "But you're the boss and don't want to find a good match?" ”

Xue Chengyu knew that Master Xue would ask like this, but now was not the time to put it bluntly, so he turned his head and glanced at Xu Hong, who was standing on the side, and replied with a light smile: "The good fate of heaven will appear without looking for it, and my father will not bother with my affairs."

Master Xue got a definite answer from Xue Chengyu's gaze, and he also smiled and stopped talking.

The frequent eye contact between the two made Xu Hong on the side see the problem but it was difficult to ask, but what he could be sure of was that Master Xue must have known about the two of them. Xue Chengyu has a delicate mind, and Master Xue is a higher level than him, and he can see through many things that cannot be explained.

After Xue Chengyu finished eating, Xu Hong took him to the door of the house, Xue Chengyi had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw Xue Chengyu coming out so slowly, he complained unconsciously: "Big brother comes out so slowly, don't miss the time to see the fireflies."

Xue Chengyu snorted coldly and replied, "When did I delay your business?"

Xue Chengyi knew that what he said just now was rude, and apologized to Xue Chengyu. He just wanted to see his young sister soon, so Xue Chengyi also deliberately went back to the house to change his outfit, which felt like a newlywed girl.

Xue Chengyu didn't want to quarrel with Xue Chengyi at the door of the house, so he turned his head and patted Xu Hong's hand, and said softly, "Let's go."

Xu Hong was thinking about what Xue Chengyu meant by looking at him at the dinner table just now, but he was startled by such a beat, and he came back to his senses after a while.

Seeing Xu Hong like this, Xue Chengyu couldn't help but be a little worried, and asked with concern: "What's wrong?" What are you thinking? ”

"Nothing." Xu Hong's eyes flickered, he didn't dare to look directly into Xue Chengyu's eyes, and after glancing at Xue Chengyi beside him, he pushed Xue Chengyu out of Xue's mansion and walked towards the city gate.

Xue Chengyi and Luo Shaotian made an appointment to meet at the gate of the city, Luo Shaotian was wearing a light pink skirt, his hair was pulled up, and a little emerald silver hairpin was inserted on it, although his eyebrows and eyes had not yet grown, he could still see that he was a beautiful embryo.

Luo Shaotian saw that the three of them bowed slightly, and after seeing Xue Chengyi, he smiled even more, his eyes were full of joy.

After leaving the house, Xue Chengyi restrained his temperament, and he looked like a calm son without his usual overly lively appearance, but it was a pity that Xue Chengyi only learned the skin, and the core still has to have a certain amount of experience to truly understand.

Xue Chengyi came to Luo Shaotian before Xue Chengyu and Xu Hong, bowed his head and smiled at Luo Shaotian, and said, "It's all my own family, Shaotian doesn't have to be so polite."

As soon as these words came out, Luo Shaotian and the maid behind him all covered their mouths and laughed, and even Xue Chengyu raised the corners of his mouth, thinking: He is not very old, his mouth is quite sweet, he will please other girls when he is just fourteen years old, and when he grows up, if he becomes flamboyant, what should he do? Fortunately, Xue Chengyu's worries were unnecessary.

Xue Chengyu hadn't seen Luo Shaotian for a few days, and it was not good to say a word, so he stepped forward to say a few words: "I haven't seen my third sister for a long time, I remember that the last time we met was a year ago, and now you are so tall and pretty."

"Brother Chengyi has not gone out for a long time, it is difficult to see him, my father is quite concerned about my brother's body, I don't know how my brother's leg disease is?"

Xue Chengyu smiled and patted his numb and stiff legs, and replied, "It's still the same old look, and there are no signs of improvement." Don't mention this, let's go see the fireflies first, Xiao Hong and I will walk slowly and follow behind. ”

Xue Chengyi had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, raised his eyebrows, whispered in Luo Shaotian's ear for a while, smiled and bowed his hand to Xue Chengyu, and took Luo Shaotian to take the first step.

When the two of them walked to a place where they couldn't see, Xu Hong could speak, and asked softly: "Young master's legs...... Is there really no sign of getting better? ”

Xue Chengyu held Xu Hong's hand, patted the back of his hand, and comforted: "I can't see it in a month or two, but don't worry, it will definitely have an effect after a long time." Let's go too, we can't live up to the good times when we finally come out. ”

Xu Hong nodded and pushed Xue Chengyu to walk slowly along the river. There are many flowers on the shore, and the breeze blows through the clusters of flowers. There were bursts of insect chirping from the cracks in the stones, especially the crickets, which were the loudest, and it was impossible to tell which strong cricket was giving a war to the others.

Walking on the cobblestone path of the river embankment in a wooden wheelchair is a bit strenuous, but fortunately, the woods on the shore suitable for watching fireflies are not far away, and it takes half an hour to walk.

In the middle of the river there are reeds as tall as a man, which shake with the current, layer upon layer like a surge.

As night falls, the moon rises in the sky from the east, and the stars shine in the sky.

Xu Hong was tired of walking and wanted to find a place to sit down and rest, but just as he was about to bend down, Xue Chengyu's hand immediately wrapped it, but this time he didn't pull him into his arms without asking, but it was loosely wrapped around his waist.

"If the ground is damp, if you are tired, sit on my lap."

Xu Hong was stunned for a moment, turned off the lights, and carefully sat on Xue Chengyu's lap. Although Xue Chengyu's legs are unconscious, they are still good legs, and he should not sit down with a lame leg recklessly.

"Why did the young master let the second young master and Miss Luo go first, isn't it good to see together?"

Xue Chengyu smiled at the corner of his mouth, and flicked Xu Hong's forehead lightly, "If you don't leave them, how can you have the opportunity to be alone now?" Could it be that Xiaohong doesn't want to be alone with me? ”

"Of course not......" Xu Hong looked at Xue Chengyu with big innocent eyes, "I'm just afraid of the second young master...... Wait......"

Before he finished speaking, Xue Chengyu suddenly tightened his arms, pulled Xu Hong into his arms and hugged him tightly, "Since it's not, then get closer, I won't eat you here~" The last sentence was said by Xue Chengyu leaning into Xu Hong's ear, biting his earlobe and whispering, with sincerity in that tone, as if he really wouldn't do it.

Xue Chengyu hugged up along his waist, felt that Xu Hong seemed to have something in his arms, bulging, glanced at Xu Hong, and then put his hand into his clothes to take out the things, and played carefully.

They were two small cloth bags with ordinary workmanship, which contained deworming herbs, which seemed to be specially prepared by Xu Hong in order to avoid mosquitoes at night.

Xue Chengyu gave the cloth bag to Xu Hong, held his own one tightly in his hand, his expression was slightly solemn, he breathed a long sigh of relief, held Xu Hong's hand, and said, "Xiao Hong has a heart."

Xu Hong lowered his head and smiled, and looked at Xue Chengyu affectionately, "The river is humid and there are many mosquitoes in the summer night, I am afraid that the young master will let the insects disturb and look at the fireflies." ”

Xue Chengyu pursed his lips and looked at Xu Hong with deep meaning, looking at Xu Hong with a little hairiness.

"In addition to my mother, Xiao Hong is the first person who can treat me so well in ten years. Alas, it can really be said that there is no need to ask for a good fate, and when the time comes, it will come by itself. ”

Xu Hong just smiled and didn't speak, he didn't know what Xue Chengyu had experienced in his childhood, and from Xue Chengyu's words, he could feel that Mrs. Xue was definitely very important to Xue Chengyu and had a great impact on his future growth. It's just that Xue Chengyu didn't want to say that he didn't want to ask, who can not have some sad past, and he can't always open which pot is not opened.

But in the Xue family, Mrs. Xue has always been a mysterious existence, according to the next people, Mrs. Xue has been dead for ten years, during these ten years, Master Xue has been alone and has never renewed, and he has never been moved to any woman again, even the ornaments in the house are all left by Mrs. Xue before her death, and they have never been changed.

Originally, it was not easy for a man to love one person without taking a concubine with three wives and four concubines, and it was even more rare to be so infatuated after the death of his wife, and Master Xue was the first person to be infatuated in this dynasty.

The moon was already high in the middle of the conversation, the night was low, and a breeze blew through the woods not far away, and a little flickering light began to shine. In a moment, the light became huge, and the fireflies grew brighter and brighter, gradually joining together to light up the forest.

The fireflies gathered more and more, and they kept flying out of the woods, flying in the direction where Xu Hong and Xue Chengyu were. Xu Hong stretched out his hand and tried to grab it, but he didn't catch it, but Xue Chengyu grabbed one as soon as he stretched out his hand, sent it to Xu Hong, and opened his hand carefully. The insect flew slowly around Xu Hong without restraint, as if it was dancing slowly.

More fireflies began to fly around the two, and Xu Hong stretched out his hand to grab it, and two or three fireflies were caught in his hand. Xu Hong happily shook the firefly he caught in front of Xue Chengyu, and the smiling nightmare like a flower made Xue Chengyu's heart tremble.

Xue Chengyu felt that it was the greatest blessing in his life to meet Xu Hong, he inherited the light brought by Xu Hong and accepted the warmth from Xu Hong.

Xu Hong was like a ray of light, piercing through the thick clouds, melting thousands of feet of ice, and shooting into his heart, which had long lost its vitality.

Xue Chengyu stroked the corners of Xu Hong's mouth with a smile, his eyes were full of tenderness, word by word, and he said loudly:

"Even if the mountains collapse and the rivers flow backwards, I, Xue Chengyu, only love Xu Hong in this life and this life!"

Hearing this, Xu Hong stretched out his hand to hug Xue Chengyu, put his head against his shoulder socket, and tears kept rolling in his eyes. He and Xue Chengyu are like two trapped beasts in a desperate situation, relying on each other's strength to support each other to go on.

They don't know whether it's right or wrong to be together like this, so they can only walk together on this unknown road, even if there is an abyss and a sea of blood in front of them, they don't look back and don't regret it.

Xue Chengyu felt the uneasiness of the person in his arms, and gently patted him on the back to comfort him.

At this time, the fireflies gradually flew away, and even the crickets that were still chirping just now died down, and the silence between heaven and earth was surprisingly quiet, as if there were only two of them in the world, snuggling up to each other and feeling each other's temperature.

After the insects completely dispersed, Xu Hong slowly let go of his arm, lowered his head aggrievedly, and did not dare to face Xue Chengyu, not only that, but even turned around and secretly wiped away the tears that were about to slip from the corners of his eyes.

He always cries like this, holding Xue Chengyu's heart trembling and trembling.

Xue Chengyu took out a fire fold to light the lantern, patted Xu Hong's thin shoulder, and said, "Xiaohong, let's go home."

Xu Hong nodded weakly, got off Xue Chengyu, and pushed the wheelchair in the direction of home.

For Xu Hong, Xue Mansion is his real home, a happy and happy home.
