"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Yan Li opened his eyes in a daze, but saw a seven or eight-year-old boy calling himself, he rubbed his hazy drunken eyes, and said angrily: "Whose little son are you, why do you call me brother-in-law?" Go home, I'm going to sleep a little longer. ”

"Brother-in-law, I'm not going home." The child suddenly burst into tears.

"What are you crying about, what is your name, why are you in my room?" Yan Li yawned, got up and put on his coat.

"I'm Hu Bao, I slept here last night."

"What? You slept here last night? Yan Li looked at Hu Bao strangely.

"Of course, have you forgotten?" Yan Li's sister Yan Leran walked in with a basin of washing water, "You were drunk last night, it was Qian Zhutou who sent you back, and you also brought Hu Bao to the house, saying that you met him on the road, looked at him pitifully, and asked him to sleep in the same bed with you." ”

Yan Li stared at Hu Bao, "You're not staying at home, what are you running around with?" ”

Hu Bao cried: "My second sister died, and my mother was also missing, so I ran out in fear." ”

Yan Li sighed, this Hu Bao's eldest sister and herself made a baby kiss, but she died suddenly three years ago, but she didn't expect his second sister to die again, "What about your mother?" ”

Hu Bao suddenly burst into tears.

Yan Leran comforted her for a while, she took Yan Li to the porch, and whispered, "Do you really plan to put this child at home?" ”

Yan Li hesitated and discussed: "He is so pitiful, and he has no relatives, can he let him go around asking for food?" ”

Yan Leran frowned and said, "But how to tell Aunt Zhao, she will never agree." ”

Yan Li snorted coldly: "Do you have to look at her face to do things for your brother?" ”

Yan Leran frowned and said: "But they all live under one roof, they are noisy all day long, and they are not uniform, and now they are going to add trouble to Hu Bao, and I don't know what the trouble will turn upside down." ”

Yan Li sighed lightly: "In the days when my brother was away, my sister must have been wronged, and now that Aunt Zhao dares to accept Jiang Xie's bride price, I must calculate this account with her, and I can't let her be so arrogant." ”

Yan Leran said in a low voice: "This Aunt Zhao and Kong Xianling are secretly in contact, and my brother doesn't underestimate her." ”

"Humph!" Yan Li slapped his palm on the pillar angrily, so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.

"Our Yan family is now in ruins, attracting people everywhere and snubbing, the cynical sister in this world has also seen a lot, and she is slowly getting used to it, and it is not a grievance, even if Aunt Zhao uses some secular tricks, my sister can also mediate from it, brother must not worry about this matter anymore, the palace test is coming, my brother must plan early, no matter what can cause trouble during this period, so as not to miss the trip." Yan Leran burst into tears when she spoke.

"Yo, Young Master Yan is up," Aunt Zhao walked over with a twist, followed by her eight-year-old son Yan Chong, "Chong'er, go and say hello to my brother." ”

Yan Chong obediently ran to Yan Li's reluctance, and said with a wink: "Good morning, brother." ”

Yan Li barely squeezed out a smile and replied, "Chong'er is good." ”

"Who is he?" Yan Chong suddenly pointed to Hu Bao behind Yan Li.

"He's Brother Bao, he'll live in our house in the future, okay to play with Chong'er?" Yan Yan looked at Yan Chong with gentle words.

"It's not good, I don't want outsiders to live in our house, I have the final say in this house!" Yan Yan ran back to his mother and looked at Hu Bao with small eyes.

"Hey, Chong'er, you can't say that, be careful of being plotted, let's keep our mouths shut, who is this to live, we can't take care of it, such a big family, even if you have a cat or dog, you can afford it, in this world, it's not easy to live, but you can't worry about those kittens and dogs anymore." Aunt Zhao swayed left and right as she spoke, leading her son out of the courtyard gate.

Yan Li snorted angrily and stared at the door, and suddenly saw Jiang Wei hurriedly walking into the courtyard gate.

Jiang Wei saw Yan Leran, and suddenly said: "Sister Leran, I can tell you a big news, the flowers and birds have made Gonggong Chen come to Qufu, you must not go out these days, in case you are bumped into by Gonggong Chen, then no one will be able to save you." ”

Yan Leran's heart was beating wildly when she heard this, and she hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"There has been a commotion in Qufu County, whether you are a big family or an ordinary person, or even a slave or a maidservant, as long as the daughter of the family is a little bit beautiful, Father-in-law Chen will take it all, and no one can get out."

Jiang Wei followed Yan Li to the study and sat down, and said while drinking tea: "Originally, there were some people who were willing to send their daughters to the palace, but there are indeed rumors in the market that many daughters sent to the palace will never return, as if they have entered hell, so now as soon as this flower and bird envoy appears, people everywhere are panicking." ”

Jiang Wei said it up, saw Yan Li frowning, and sighed: "I know that Brother Yan doesn't believe in these strange theories, but this rumor is not a day or two, how many people's daughters in Qufu are like this, and now whenever a daughter hears the name of the flower and bird envoy, it is like a ghost hearing that black and white are impermanent, and they are all discolored, lest they be unable to hide." ”

Yan Li shook his head and said nothing, Jiang Wei's tone changed, and he lowered his voice and said: "I also heard that the saint is cultivating a secret method of trickery today, which requires the essence and blood of young girls, and in order to cover people's ears and eyes, it also leads to a chatter about demons and monsters in the palace. ”

Yan Li was surprised: "Why did Jiang Gongzi say this? ”

Jiang Wei's expression tightened, and he bowed his head and said: "My father-in-law's daughter has served in the palace for many years, and when she returned to her hometown to see his father a few years ago, she told us in person, saying that the saint has not known what evil ways to cultivate in recent years, and he has to be fortunate to have a few palace maids in one night, and he has also built a Linxing Palace, which is full of newly selected palace maids every year, they are isolated from the world and never contact with outsiders, but there is a huge Linxing Palace, and he has never seen one come out, do you say it's scary?" ”

Yan Li looked displeased, and stopped Jiang Wei's words, "I said Jiang Gongzi, you can't chew the root of your tongue everywhere like a woman with a long tongue, and such ridiculous words can be said by your mouth?" ”

Jiang Wei said aggrievedly: "I didn't chew the root of my tongue, I heard it with my own ears." ”

Yan Li waved his hand and said coldly: "What I asked Brother Jiang to do yesterday, Brother Jiang can do it?" ”

Jiang Wei saw that Yan Li's cold eyes were opposite to each other, and his heart was bored, so he responded: "I have been waiting in the bird market for the past two days, but I have never seen the figure of Xiao Niangzi, not even the maid. ”

Yan Li nodded slightly, "It's okay if I haven't seen it, my letter doesn't have any important content." ”

Jiang Wei asked tentatively, "Then what about this letter?" ”

Yan Li's face softened, and he snorted, and said, "Just return it to me, and I will give it to her face to face if I have the chance." ”

Jiang Wei said embarrassedly: "This little thing can be handed over to the next, doesn't Yan Gongzi believe it?" ”

Yan Li shook his head and said, "That letter was written in a hurry, and I was planning to rewrite it." ”

Jiang Wei reluctantly took out the letter, thinking that he couldn't explain to Yan Zhu, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he couldn't help but say cheekily: "Anyway, I have time today, and I'll send it to them when Brother Yan finishes writing." ”

Yan Li took the letter, put it in his arms casually, and said coldly: "There are some things that I still don't trouble Brother Jiang, and I also advise Brother Jiang to have time to read more sage books, and think more about serving the country and sharing worries for the saints. ”

Jiang Wei was lectured by Yan Li, and suddenly blushed a little, he left the Yan family with a disgraced face, and glared back fiercely.
