Chapter 521: Returning Home After a Long Absence
Fu Yunge didn't want to be bored, so he casually chatted with him about the servant management of the Dongfang family. This is Hu Gan's business, so he chatted endlessly. It didn't take long for them to walk to Shi Yi Hall.
The front of the hall is neat and quiet. At the foot of the stairs, although there were not many human guards, there was a sense of vigilance in the air, which could make everyone present feel a sense of security from the bottom of their hearts.
Fu Yunge knew that these few but fine guards were not ordinary people.
His gaze didn't linger too much on those people. I only listened to Hu Gan take off his hat full of snow and slap it, and then he walked out of the hall slowly.
If you want to say who is the real manager of the Dongfang family now, the person who walks down the steps slowly is the answer sought.
Fu Yunge's gaze also slowly lowered with this person. Hu Gan had already bowed deeply, and the people around him also bowed to this person.
Fu Yunge nodded naturally. The man knew him and nodded to him in the same way.
The style is elegant and handsome, and his appearance is a little similar to that of Oriental poetry. The visitor was dressed in a light-colored green coat, with a black ribbon and a high crown, and his temperament was refined.
It's just that in terms of age, he is older than Fu Yunge and Dongfang Shiming.
"Big Brother Dongfang." Seeing him come down, Fu Yunge stepped forward, "You are also ......"
"yes." The visitor bowed his head and turned to look at him, "During this time, is it still comfortable?" ”
Fu Yunge smiled: "Thank you for your care, I have been very good here during this time." ”
"Well, that's good."
Obviously, he still had something on his mind, and he didn't talk to Fu Yunge for a long time.
After walking a few steps not far away, Fu Yunge heard his voice reproaching his servant again. Turning his head to look in the snow, he realized that he suspected that the people were not properly prepared, and there was something negligent.
Oriental Chengtian. Fu Yunge read his name in his heart.
It seems that this is the eldest brother who really cares about the younger brother. Dongfang Shiming came back today, and he had to prepare so caringly, which was enough to see the importance he attached to his little brother.
The snow gradually became smaller, turning from flakes of snow into particles. The "pop" hit the clothes very loudly, and then quickly melted away.
Fu Yunge stood under the eaves, his hands in his sleeves, looking into the distance.
Dongfang Chengtian and Hu Gan both went to prepare, although there was still a long time before noon, but the preparations for lunch and Yiying had already been arranged in detail. Looking at the servants who hurried past from time to time under the court, Fu Yunge smacked his lips.
So it seems...... It's a bit weird indeed.
Why did he care for Dongfang Shiming's family like this, let him live alone in the Nether Heaven, ignoring it for so many years?
He became more and more puzzled. This is someone else's family affair in the end, he is an outsider after all.
…………
Time flies. By the time the figure that everyone had been waiting for finally appeared in the distance, it was already nearly afternoon.
The snow stopped for a while at noon, but the cold wind was still blowing. In the afternoon, snowflakes fell flutteringly, and the clouds at the zenith seemed to freeze and did not move.
In front of Shi Yi Hall, Dongfang Chengtian had already led people to wait. Fu Yunge stood at the door, watching the figure from far and near.
"It's finally back."
The generals at the door saluted respectfully when they saw the comer. I saw that the comer quickly waved his hand and stepped into the house surrounded by the two goalkeepers.
Dressed in white and red, it looks very conspicuous. Oriental poetry is dusty, with a snowy face, but it does not change its calm look.
When Fu Yunge saw his friend, the corners of his mouth hooked up a little smile.
Dongfang Chengtian and the others also got up one after another when they saw this.
But what preceded them all was a bow and arrow as swift as a locust!
With a "whoosh", the snow marks on the eaves were wiped over. It was like a bright arc of light, flying through everyone's field of vision and piercing Dongfang Shiming!
The arrow light, in an instant, passed through the tip of Dongfang Shiming's hat.
Caught off guard, everyone's pupils constricted. However, when they looked at it again, everyone suddenly jumped to their throats, and fell back to their original positions in shock.
Then came a rustling from the eaves.
Dongfang Shiming gently took off his hat. Looking at the little man jumping from the roof, he couldn't help but show an affectionate smile.
"You're back. Didn't you bring back that beautiful little daughter-in-law of yours this time? ”
Unexpectedly, the girl who jumped down did not cater to the kindness of Dongfang Shiming. I saw that she was holding a wooden bow in her hand, and her age was even one or two years younger than Bai Artemisia.
"Bi'er, he's your brother. Don't talk nonsense. ”
Immediately after, Dongfang Chengtian's reproachful voice came from behind. Everyone walked out of the threshold and came to the court.
"Slightly," Dongfang Bi skillfully wrapped the bow behind him, and turned his head to make a grimace at Dongfang Chengtian, "You are also my brother, is there anything remarkable?" ”
Dongfang Chengtian didn't speak immediately, but looked at this little girl, and his face suddenly gloomy.
Seeing his brother like this, Dongfang Bi's small body trembled. She pouted, grabbed her bow and ran away.
Fu Yunge looked at Dongfang Bi who ran away, and couldn't help but want to smile bitterly.
With such archery skills, this kid is really promising. He thought.
Dongfang Shiming was snubbed by her little sister first, but she didn't see the slightest displeasure. He pulled out the arrow that had stabbed into his hat and looked at his eldest brother with a smile.
"Really, it's not worrying." Dongfang Chengtian sighed, "In the future, you can't indulge her in such nonsense." The girl's family is so big, she has to let her know that etiquette and upbringing are. ”
After saying that, he looked at Dongfang Shiming again, and reached out to pat the snow on Dongfang Shiming's shoulder: "I frightened you." ”
"It's a good thing that my little sister is lively." Dongfang Shiming lowered his eyelids, "I'm very happy." ”
"Artemisia didn't come back with you?" Fu Yunge asked beside him.
Dongfang Shiming hasn't seen Fu Yunge for a while. Seeing each other this time, it seems that I have seen everyone in my family even more.
He nodded: "She went back to the Bai family first." She'll come back tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. ”
"Let's go, let's go inside." Dongfang Chengtian hugged the little brother behind his back, looking very sincere, "The snow is getting heavier and heavier outside." You've been eating and living outside for the past few days, and you look thin. ”
…………
The sound of the wind beating on the eaves, the snow is like flocculent, and the wind makes a muffled sound of "drum dong drum dong" outside the door.
After serving warm tea, a group of servants changed Dongfang Shiming's sleet felt robe. Dishes that had been simmering for a long time over a warm fire were placed on the table in an orderly manner, and behind the screen, several people sat down along the table.
The lights were on the wall next to it, and it looked very warm. Dongfang Shiming exhaled the cold air in his chest and felt refreshed.
After a short reconnect with everyone, the focus of the two Dongfang brothers is obviously not here. After eating a few bites of food, Dongfang Shiming turned his head and asked, "Father, ...... How's your body doing now? ”
"He's also waiting for you to come back. During this time, his illness was fairly stable...... Mother, still taking care of him. ”
