The afternoon in winter is very short, because it gets dark early, and it is still hot in summer, and in this early winter, the sky is already dark.

In such a season, it is naturally impossible to eat out.

Under the busyness of Mei Han, a side room was soon steaming and steaming, bubbling with a charming aroma.

This side house is the place where Nie Yan usually eats most often except for eating out, because it is close to Nie Yan's study.

When Nie Yan entered the house, he was already waiting.

The copper pot in the middle of the table has been boiling to the boiling point, and it is steaming hot, surrounded by cut vegetables, both fresh meat slices and fresh vegetables, which makes people full of appetite when they look at it.

Thinking that he was about to leave again, Nie Yan's words for this meal were a little more than usual, mostly some words of concern.

Mei Han was sensitive, she didn't hear it right, so she couldn't help but ask: "Big brother, are you ready to leave?" ”

Now that he said it, Nie Yan didn't want to hide it anymore, put down his chopsticks, took a sip of warm wine, and then said slowly: "The years at home are good, but I can't forget my ambition because of this." Now, the family's affairs are also on the right track, and what I can do is limited, and the family needs more things to develop, but none of them can be achieved overnight. It's winter, and it's time to leave. ”

Mei Han lowered his head, didn't say anything, silently scalded a piece of beef for Nie Yan, and sandwiched it into Nie Yan's bowl: "Then I'll prepare luggage for my eldest brother tomorrow." ”

"Okay." Nie Yan said softly.

At this time, Lan Shi next to him asked, "Big brother, what demon are you going to kill this time?" ”

Compared with the other small ones, Lan Shi actually yearns for the life of a demon hunter, but he has no talent for cultivation, otherwise Nie Yan will not be able to fulfill him, and take him to see it once or twice.

Nie Yan was silent, how could there be a detailed plan for this kind of thing, just that there were too many chances.

However, the bamboo wind beside him hung his head silently, obviously feeling a little depressed.

Mei Han was afraid that it would affect Nie Yan's mood, so she couldn't help but take Zhufeng into her arms, and comforted her softly, but she didn't want Zhufeng to look up, but she said softly: "I miss my eldest sister a little." ”

As soon as he said this, the whole room fell silent.

Since I arrived in this Shu a few years ago, Wanwan is like a taboo, rarely mentioned in the people of several brothers and sisters, even if there are occasional thoughts, they are also suppressed in their hearts, so that since then, it seems that she has never existed as a person.

Especially after knowing that Nie Yan is a demon hunter, they will not mention the bowl even more when they are young, even if Nie Yan leaves the day, they will not mention it to each other.

But when it comes to feelings, a few children's feelings for Wanwan are not shallower than Nie Yan's, after all, they have been together since they were children, if they don't have kind, tenacious, and smart Wanwan with a few children, I'm afraid that in that turbulent year, whether such a child can survive is a question.

Today's incident, it's no wonder that Zhufeng thinks of the bowls.

On other days, when they were still in difficulty, several children begged for not much food, and they were all hungry, and hunger was so difficult in winter, so Wanwan stood up and encouraged the children, laughing and saying Let's eat a hot pot.

It was a shabby hot pot, boiling white water with only a small amount of salt, and the vegetable market was naturally a cold meal for begging, plus some pitiful wild vegetables that were not even picked in winter.

However, Wanwan didn't know where to conjure up a small piece of bacon, which turned this shabby hot pot into their feast and warmed them this whole winter night.

Later, they learned that this small piece of bacon was bought by Wanwan for the only silver bracelet left to her by her grandmother who adopted her.

Years later, everyone wanted to exchange the silver bracelet for the bowl, but where could they find it?

The past cannot be traced, in fact, every winter when eating hot pot, children will think of bowls and bowls, but they don't say it in their hearts.

Today, Nie Yan said that he was leaving, and the two sorrows combined, how could the young Zhu Feng still be able to bear it?

Nie Yan didn't know about this past, but when he heard Zhu Feng mention the bowl, his face changed This is a reaction that he can't suppress, it's okay when he is alone, but in front of so many people who have common memories, the love will naturally be more intense.

Mei Han was afraid that Nie Yan would be depressed or blame Zhu Feng for mentioning it, so he had to quickly tell this past.

Nie Yan was silent, he thought he knew enough about Wanwan, but he found that she still had so many old things, and he didn't know?

Zhu Feng raised his head at this time, broke free from Mei Han, and said to Nie Yan, "Big brother, will you kill the eldest sister?" If you meet the eldest sister, don't kill her, okay? ”

Wanwan is a demon, and this little has long been known.

It's no secret that Nie Yan is the demon hunter, what are the terrible consequences of colliding together, and he doesn't dare to think about it.

Nie Yan didn't know how to answer, to kill or not to kill? It seemed to be the heaviest thing in his life.

At this time, a subordinate suddenly entered the house, and was suddenly brought in by the open door for a while, and Su Zhan, who was sitting by the door, shivered.

Seeing this, Mei Han couldn't help frowning, and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Wei, why is it so abrupt today?" ”

Wei Bo is a very well-behaved person on weekdays, and knows how to advance and retreat, if there is nothing to do, he will definitely not be so abrupt, without asking a word, he directly broke into the house where the master was eating.

But in the end, this dissolved a trace of heaviness in Nie Yan's heart, and he raised his hand to signal Mei Han not to care, but looked at Wei Bo and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's good that the head of the family is here, I'm afraid you'll go out today." Wei Bo's tone was a little hurried, although Nie Yan was at home in the past half a year, he would occasionally travel out for two or three days, and by the way, see if there were any suitable seedlings that he could bring back to Nie's house.

Nie Yan's expression remained unchanged, but he did not interrupt Wei Bo, Wei Bo also understood the master's thoughts, and no longer rambling, but said directly: "There is an offspring in the family, saying that he is looking for the head of the family." Xiao Dongzi, the gatekeeper, asked him what his surname was, and he could report it, this was originally a very normal rule, and I don't know why it annoyed him? He didn't say a word and just broke in. ”

"Huh?" Nie Yan thought about it, and couldn't guess who it was?

And Wei Bo was still muttering: "It's obviously a Sven-like offspring, but I don't know how it is so powerful?" A few heads of the housekeepers, with a group of young masters and young ladies, couldn't stop him, now"

Young Master and Miss are naturally members of the affiliated family adopted by Nie Yan, and once they are recognized, their identity will naturally be that Young Master and Miss Girl.

"Where are you now, take me there." Nie Yan's mood had become a little heavier, knowing that the person who came would definitely not be an ordinary person.

Since the head of the family had already spoken, where did Wei Bo dare to slack off, and hurriedly led the way.

A few Xiao felt that it was novel, and he wanted to keep up, Nie Yan hesitated slightly, and then acquiesced.

At home, if you can't protect a few children, this big brother doesn't have to do it.

In addition, since he has already participated in such a thing as a demon hunter, he naturally can't ignore everything, this is an opportunity.

Under the leadership of Wei Bo, after passing through several corridors, Nie Yan and his party walked to the big house in the main hall, and after passing through the big house, there was the largest garden in the compound.

There is the only lake in the yard here, there is no snow in Shu in winter, although it is the kind of biting cold, but it is not the kind of cold that the wind is howling, so the lake is not frozen, in winter, it is still sparkling, but it is close to the place where there is water, and it will naturally be a little cold.

In the distance, Nie Yan saw a figure standing on the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

In winter, dressed in a white shirt, the long hair is carefully tied, the pile is behind the head, the hem of the clothes is slightly fluttering with the wind in winter, holding a bamboo flute, holding a single hand on his back, and the indescribable state of the jade tree in the wind.

With just a glance, Nie Yan knew who the person was coming, and his heart was a little calm, and he strode forward.

Perhaps hearing footsteps, the man finally turned around and looked at Nie Yan head-on.

Four years have passed, and the appearance of the person who came seems to be a little more exquisite, fading away from the youthful atmosphere, and looking more noble and dusty, but also more beautiful and indisputable.

If it's not the person who came, who is the Tong Emperor?

It's just that the moment he turned around, Mei Han couldn't help but let out a low sigh.

How can there be such a symbol in the world? The eldest brother is already a rare handsome man, but in terms of beauty, he is less than one percent of this man.

In fact, Nie Yan is such a rough man, how can he have any beauty?

"It's a good house." When Nie Yan was still more than ten meters away from him, Emperor Tong opened his mouth lazily, and when he spoke, he still had the same demeanor as he had four years ago, his eyes squinting at Nie Yan, so high.

Nie Yan didn't say anything, just looked at Emperor Tong, and the steps under his feet didn't stop.

"You should thank me, the enemy is now, and I will help the fist." Emperor Tong slowly spoke again, but this time he didn't mean to laugh at half a minute, but his tone became much stricter.

Nie Yan finally stopped, probably only three or two meters away from Emperor Tong.

A few little hid behind Nie Yan, and they all quietly looked at Emperor Tong, such a beauty, even if a man saw it, he would feel noble and beautiful, and he didn't dare to look at it more, and he was attracted to the attention again, especially Mei Han, who has always been calm, but at this moment, his heartbeat is almost to the limit, if he doesn't quietly hold the back of his eldest brother, I'm afraid he will be a little untenable.

Emperor Tong didn't look at it at all, this kind of gaze, he walked the world, I don't know how much he has seen.

"Who is the enemy?" Nie Yan clasped his hands to his chest, he didn't think that Emperor Tong was lying to him.

"You'll find out soon." Emperor Tong glanced at the south side, which was where the gate was, and he said something meaningful.
