Chapter 5: Sister and Brother
5. "Sister." Luoke heard someone call her, turned around, and saw a young man in a green shirt walking towards her with a bright smile on his face.
"Ah Heng." In the blink of an eye, Xue Luoke had grown to eighteen years old, and he still liked to wear vermilion clothes and wander around the huge Xue Mansion.
Ke called out to him.
Although Luoheng is three years younger than Luoke, he is probably in the stage of growing his body recently, and he is more than half a head taller than Luoke.
Thinking about it this way, Luoheng, who has always been giggling and playing around in the past few years, seems to be gradually starting to grow old and steady like Xue Chengxian, if it was placed a few years ago, Luoheng must have stumbled like Luoke, and then every time the two of them bumped into each other and laughed together.
"What are you going to do this afternoon?" Luoheng asked calmly, casually stroking a dead leaf between Luoke's hair.
"Go to the pond in the garden, and there are new fish, hehe." Luoke smiled back at him.
Luo Heng knew that her sister liked to take off her embroidered shoes the most, put her white jade feet into the lotus pond in the garden, and let those daring koi fish shuttle between her calls. When he was a child, he also took off his shoes and put his feet in the pond with his sister, until that time, his mother said that a girl's feet are not visible to ordinary people, even if they are younger brothers, at that time, he knew that there was a difference between men and women with his sister.
"Sister, it's past the Mid-Autumn Festival, and now if you are barefoot in this weather, you will catch a cold." Luo Heng helped Luo Ke tighten his clothes again.
Luoke listened to his brother's words, a little lost, but he also vaguely knew that he shouldn't do that kind of thing, so he could only reply sullenly: "Oh." Then he lowered his head.
Luo Heng knew that this was a sign of Luo Ke's displeasure.
"Sister, I went to the market yesterday to see, there are a lot of fish in the market that are better than our pool, come with me to the market in the afternoon."
Sister is very fond of fish, and she will definitely be very happy to hear this.
As Luo Heng expected, the next moment he heard the news, Luo Ke clapped his hands and jumped: "Okay, good!" Ah Heng take me there! ”
At this time, the light in Luoke's eyes is Luoheng's favorite, eyes without impurities, looking straight at you like this.
Luoheng took Luoke's hand: "Then sister, let's go." ”
Xue Chengxian, who was not far away, looked at the pair of sisters and brothers, exhaled a long breath, and moved with the wrinkles on his face: "Zi Yan, you see, the relationship between this sister and brother is not good." ”
"Yes, sir." Ye Zirou smiled all over his face. There is nothing wrong with a better relationship between sisters and brothers, but seeing that Luoheng has been more and more intimate with Luoke recently, Ye Ziyan always feels that something is wrong in his heart, and he feels a little panicked. So he said: "Although the relationship between sister and brother is tight, Ah Ke always has to get married, besides, ...... The current Ake is also eighteen years old. A while ago, the old lady also talked about Ake's marriage, sir, you see...... Isn't it time to find a good family for Ake......" After Ye Ziyan finished speaking, he looked at Xue Chengxian's face again.
Xue Chengxian frowned, but then said again: "Yes, it's time to find a good family for Ake." ”
It's not that Xue Chengxian hasn't thought about finding a husband for Luoke, and it's not that no one has come to the door to propose marriage to Luoke...... It's just that the current state basically knows that although the eldest lady of the Xue Mansion is eighteen years old, she is still a child with incomplete minds, and those who come to propose marriage are basically for the Xue family's property, who will treat their own Ake sincerely.
It's not that he doesn't have a favorite candidate, Gu Shaobai, the son of the governor of Chuzhou, is a good man with an innocent and motivated family, and he also has a little friendship with his father, but I don't know if this Gu Shaobai will be good to A Ke in the future.
Thinking of this, Ye Ziyan saw Xue Chengxian's brows furrowed tightly.
Xue Chengxian generally doesn't let Luoke go out, and when he was eight years old, he almost lost it when he went out with his wet nurse, and since then, if Xue Chengxian hadn't taken it himself, he wouldn't have been allowed to go out, but now Luoheng has grown up, and his sister who is protecting him should be fine.
Luoke, who had been stuffy in Xue's mansion for eight years, was startled when she first saw this lively market, there were people in different clothes coming and going, and there were hawkers shouting at pedestrians on the street, which made her suddenly think of the dark street after she was lost at the age of eight, so she had to hold Luoheng's sleeves tightly and hide behind him.
"Sister, don't be afraid, it's just that there are more people, come, hold my hand, I will hold you, and I won't let you lose it." Luoheng untied Luoke's hand from his sleeve and put it in his hand safely.
Sister's hands are cool, soft, and very comfortable to hold. Luo Heng laughed unconsciously.
"Ah Heng, fish! Fish! I don't know if Luoheng has become relieved or what, Luoke saw the stall full of colorful fish, and wanted to squeeze through the crowd and rush over.
"Sister, slow down, be careful of falling."
Although the stall was small, there were a lot of fish, and it was full of fish that Luoke had never seen before.
"This, this, this, all of them!" Luoke pointed to a pile of fish on the stall without being held, and said to Luoheng.
"Okay, sister, I'll buy it for you. Boss, please put up this purple butterfly-tailed dragon's eye fish, jade-topped lion's head and blue-threaded finch. ”
"Okay! Miss Childe, you two really have a vision, but this blue finch is left with this tail, and someone has already booked it It's really embarrassing, why don't you take a look at it again, but there is anything you like? ”
Although Luoke said that he was mentally incomplete, he also understood the words of the stall owner, which was nothing more than that the fish already had an owner.
"Sister, why don't you change it, do you have any favorites?" Luo Heng asked.
"But this one is the best." Luoke pouted.
"Then I'll give this blue-threaded finch to this girl." Luoke heard a warm voice beside her.
Luoheng also followed Luoke's eyes and saw that person, dressed in moon-white clothes, handsome appearance, holding a folding fan, but the appearance of a beautiful son.
"Then since Gu Gongzi said so, I will put this blue-threaded finch up for this girl." The stall owner took out a small ceramic fish tank from behind him and scooped the blue into it.
"Then I will thank this son for my sister." Luo Heng said to Gu Shaobai.
"It doesn't matter, as long as the girl is happy." Gu Shaobai replied.
Luoke couldn't wait to take the fish, watched it flutter its gorgeous tail in the water, raised his head and said to Gu Shaobai: "Rejoice!" Joy! ”
Gu Shaobai saw this girl's face clearly, as if she hadn't seen the sun all year round, her skin was a little sickly white, her facial features were beautiful, but her eyes were bright and scary.
Luo Heng looked at Gu Shaobai's eyes at Luo Ke, and suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart, as if this person would snatch Sister A away from him.
So he took Luoke's hand and tightened it a little tighter: "Sister, there is a fireworks display in East City, let's go see it together." ”
Luoke naturally said yes repeatedly, but just about to leave, he heard Gu Shaobai beside him say: "Meeting is fate, and I will go to Dongshi in the next place, can I go over together." ”
Before Luoheng could open his mouth to refuse, Luoke responded with joy, and then turned his head to look at Luoheng again: "Ah Heng, many people, lively." ”
Although Luo Heng was unhappy, the three of them walked to Dongshi together.
Along the way, Luoheng was holding Luoke's hand, Gu Shaobai helped Luoke carry the fish, and Luoke was walking beside Luoheng, and couldn't stop looking east and west on both sides of the street.
"Are you two locals?" Gu Shaobai asked.
"Yes, so is Gu Gongzi?" Luo Heng replied, trying to make her tone sound polite.
Gu Shaobai then asked, "Where is that mansion?" ”
"Xue Mansion in the west is."
"It turned out to be the young lady and son of the Xue family, and in Gu Shaobai, speaking of which, our fathers have some friendships."
After Gu Shaobai reported his name, Luo Heng remembered that he had heard his father mention it before, and the son of the governor of Chuzhou was called Gu Shaobai: "It turned out to be Gu Gongzi, and I am fortunate to be lucky." ”
The fathers of the two families have a relationship, and they have to do enough work on the surface.
Xue Luoheng didn't know what it was time to learn from Xue Chengxian, but Xue Chengxian had told him since he was sensible that only if he could support this Xue family, his sister, his sister, and his family, would he be better.
In order to make my sister better, I must make myself more stable and more stable.
Gu Shaobai knows the second lady of the Xue family, so the one in front of him must be the eldest lady of the Xue family, but Xue Luoyao said that his sister is a fool of Mu Ne, and now this happy look has nothing to do with Mu Ne and the fool, and there is some indescribable cuteness: "Why is Xue Gongzi interested in coming out to the market today?" ”
Although Gu Shaobai said that it was Xue Luoheng who was asking, it was Xue Luoke who was looking at it.
"Sister hasn't come out for a long time, so I want to take Sister out for a walk."
"Your sister, I don't know what to call it?"
"My name is Luoke, Luo Luo's Luo, Ming Ke's Ke Qiangyu!" Luo Ke heard that the good-looking and white boy was asking her name, so he replied without a head and then lowered his head a little shyly.
Gu Shaobai was amused by this cute little girl, and he didn't see Xue Luoheng's eyes full of anger at all.
In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the East Market, which was already full of people standing to watch the fireworks display, and of course, there were some vendors selling snacks waiting for business opportunities.
"Ah Heng, I want to eat rock sugar gourd." Luoke pointed to the vendor not far away.
Since Xiaoluoke loves to eat rock sugar gourds, Luoheng can't, so he has to unwillingly entrust Luoke to Gu Shaobai, and walked to the vendor alone.
After Luoheng left, Gu Shaobai clenched Luoke's sleeves, and Luoke was a little puzzled: "Why are you holding my sleeves?" ”
"I'm afraid that if you are abducted and run away, then your brother will be angry when he comes back."
"I can't run away." Luoke said.
"Then if I kidnap you, will you go with me?" Gu Shaobai lowered his head, looked at Luoke's eyes seriously and said.
Luoke looked at the magnified face in front of him, and suddenly felt that he couldn't breathe, but he still replied timidly: "I'll go with you." ”
The fireworks suddenly rose into the air, and the stars in the sky were also imprinted in Luoke's eyes, as bright as stars.
Gu Shaobai suddenly wanted to kiss these bright eyes, in fact, he did the same, and gave Luoke a little kiss on the eyes.
Luoheng, who bought a sugar gourd not far away, happened to see this scene through the crowd of people coming and going, and the sugar gourd in his hand fell to the ground, and the sugar residue was shattered.
It was not only Luo Heng who saw this scene, but also his twin sister.
