Lin Manru had a rare good night's sleep.

After washing up, she deliberately went to Jiang Yan's room on the fourth floor, but there was no response after calling for a long time.

Uneasy, Lin Manru went to the third floor again.

As a result, Jiang Li's room was also empty.

Lin Manru hurriedly took the elevator downstairs, and grabbed Aunt Zhang, who was cleaning in the front hall, and asked:

"Jiang Yan Jiang Li, why didn't you see the two of them?"

Shouldn't you have run away from home last night?

After all, it's not once or twice.

Aunt Zhang sighed, "Big lady, I really haven't seen the eldest young master since last night, and you also know that his disappearance in three days and two ends is already the norm." ”

"As for the eldest lady...... Aunt Zhang's face suddenly became strange, "The eldest lady got up at six o'clock, and then, and then went directly into the warehouse. ”

Lin Manru's face was full of incredulity.

Jiang Li got up at six o'clock?

How can it be?!

In the past, when she was at home, she always had to sleep until three poles in the morning.

Now that it's a holiday again, there's no reason for her to wake up early.

Even if you suddenly change your temperament, you don't have to be so diligent, right?

The more she thought about it, the more she wondered, Lin Manru couldn't care about breakfast, so she hurriedly packed her clothes and walked to the warehouse.

As a result, as soon as she walked to the backyard, she heard a sound of sword blades breaking through the air, and she was so frightened that she immediately froze in place.

Through the gaps in the lush trees, Lin Manru faintly captured a black figure.

On the open grass, the girl was dressed in a simple sports suit, her black hair tied into a high ponytail, and she was swaying in the wind with her vigorous posture.

The face that is not covered by broken hair is clean and bright, revealing unparalleled bright colors, and the exposed neck is also slender and white, like a jade kneading.

However, what caught the eye more than the girl's appearance was the red tassel gun in her hand.

The blade at the end of the handle had turned into a silver dragon, tearing together with the invisible air, colliding with a chilling sharp sound.

The girl with the gun is even more walking, her body is light, and she is vigorous and sharp in every move.

If it weren't for the fact that the girl in her vision was the blood and bones of Lin Manru who was conceived and born in October, she almost wondered if she had broken into a martial arts set by mistake.

"Oh, Li Li, how can you play such a dangerous thing!"

In a hurry, Lin Manru hurriedly screamed and ran forward.

Hearing the movement, Jiang Li paused and retracted his long arms, and then carried the red tassel gun behind him.

"Mother." She whispered her hello.

Lin Manru snatched the gun from her hand, but didn't hold it and let it fall to the ground.

At this moment, she couldn't help but show a shocked expression again.

How heavy is this gun? So why did Li Li look so relaxed when she first danced it?

Lin Manru immediately checked her physical condition up and down with a worried face.

"You're not hurt, are you? Why did the little girl's family touch such a dangerous thing? What if it hurts? ”

Jiang Li smiled, "It's okay mother, I won't get hurt." ”

When she was in Daqi, she practiced this thing almost every day.

Before her grandfather, Marquis Dingyuan, was named the general of the protector of the country, he relied on a set of ancestral marksmanship to be invincible on the battlefield.

Although in ancient times, it was only men who killed the enemy, but her enlightened grandfather did not limit her involvement in this because of this, but personally passed on this set of marksmanship to her.

Even when she was in time, she also gave her a red tassel gun made by a famous teacher.

And when she was in Daqi, she was already used to getting up every day and practicing with her brothers.

Although he has returned to modern society now, the habits he has developed have long been engraved in his bones.

Obviously, Lin Manru couldn't accept for a while that her originally delicate daughter suddenly became a "woman" who got up at six o'clock in the morning and danced a gun.

"Li Li, don't scare your mother, be honest, are you being bullied outside?"

Jiang Li knew that he would not be able to explain it for a while, so he could only take Lin Manru's arm and say:

"No, I joined a club at school to promote Shaolin Kung Fu, and the teacher taught us a little marksmanship, saying that it can strengthen the body."

"Really, there is such a club in your school?"

"Well, really, it's propaganda for non-cultural heritage." Jiang Li made a very serious expression, and then changed the topic and said, "Mother, I've been practicing for more than an hour, and I'm hungry, let's go eat." ”

Sure enough, Lin Manru, who heard that her daughter was hungry, hurriedly threw her suspicions aside, and took her hand and walked out of the backyard.

The moment he left, Jiang Li turned his head and glanced in the direction of the fifth floor, intentionally or unintentionally.

And in the room in the corner of the fifth floor, a thin figure was hiding behind the curtain and gesturing at his own futile shadow.

However, with just a few waves of his arms, he collapsed on the bed exhausted.

In addition to confusion, the young man's eyes also revealed a trace of admiration that was difficult to detect.

What she looks like dancing a gun in the sun......

It's kind of handsome.

-

In the dining room, the maids have already set up breakfast.

After yesterday's move of "killing chickens and making an example of monkeys", the atmosphere of the Jiang family today is obviously much higher.

The servants were no longer confused, and after seeing that Jiang Li got up before dawn, they hurriedly got up and started to clean up.

No one is lazy and slippery, and even after finishing the work at hand, they are still trembling and looking for other things to do.

Lin Manru took Jiang Li to sit down and put pieces of sea cucumber into her bowl.

"Li Li, are you tired of getting up so early? Try the stewed sea cucumber made by my aunt. ”

Jiang Li ate a piece, and then raised his eyes to look around at the empty seats around him.

"What about the others?"

Lin Manru let out a long sigh, "Your brother, I ran out again last night, and it is estimated that I won't come back in ten days or eight days, you don't care about him, eat yourself first." ”

"No, mother, I mean, what about the rest of the family?"

If she remembered correctly, except for Jiang Yan, there should be other people in this house.

Mrs. Jiang has three sons and a daughter, except for her father, who died at an early age, everyone else is still alive, and they have lived together since the beginning and have never separated from home.

But it's only a superficial separation.

In her impression, none of her uncles and aunts can live together, either the one who goes out, or the one who doesn't want to go home, and the whole family has long been at odds with each other.

So much so that she has little impression of the others now.

Lin Manru sighed again while holding the dishes for her.

"It's not that you don't know the temper of your second and third uncles, it's good to come back once a year."

"This time, your grandfather went back to the countryside to worship his ancestors, and your third aunt also followed, and only our family was left in the family."

"Oh yes, the timing is at home, but you know about that kid's situation—"

At the mention of this name, Jiang Lina's already dusty memories were recovered.

Jiang Shixu, the child of her second uncle's family.

Because of the discordant family relationship, this child has not been very talkative since he was a child.

It is even worse after entering puberty, where I lock myself in my room almost every day and go out day and night, and I don't see anyone.

She later learned that from the very beginning, he suffered from severe depression and autism.

And there are even fewer records about him in the novel, and in the end, he hastily explained his ending in one sentence-

"One snowy night, the boy jumped out of his room.

The young and fresh life was buried in this white expanse with the Jiang family. ”
