Wu Yan stood aside, bit her lip slightly, then retreated, washed the handkerchief quietly, and began to wipe the furnishings in the house, tidying up the messy places one by one.

Tao Yao was eating, and quietly looked at Wu Yan with her eyes, she didn't speak, and Tao Yao didn't speak again. Although I am not used to it yet, I have to learn to adapt slowly.

After lunch, Tao Yao only felt very tired, today was a rest, just to rest, but Tao Yao worked hard, only felt more tired than ordinary days.

He commanded Wu Yan: "I'll take a nap." ”

So he changed his clothes and went to bed, and threw the changed clothes on the stool on the side, Wu Yan came forward to help scatter the bed curtain, Tao Yao finally felt that there was only a place for himself to be alone, and took a deep breath, a thick fatigue hit, and somehow, he fell asleep.

This awakening, it was almost evening, Tao Yao listened to the quiet outside the bed curtain, I don't know what Wu Yan was doing, Tao Yao hesitated for a while, only quietly lifted a small crack in the bed curtain, and saw that the dining table outside had been cleaned up, and the floor seemed to be freshly washed, spotless, and the carbon ash next to the charcoal stove was also swept away, and the clean new charcoal was neatly placed.

Wu Yan's bed bedding is neatly folded, Wu Yan is not in the house, and the messy dirty clothes on her stool are gone, presumably she took it to wash, although it is early spring, the weather is still very cold, and the laundry is the most frozen hand, and it is also Tao Yao's least favorite job to do.

It would be nice if she really went to wash her clothes for herself, Tao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, put down the bed curtain, and lay back on the bed, staring at the wood carving of Wufu holding longevity on the top of the bed in a daze, I don't know what Chu Ping thinks about today's events, and what Chu Ping is thinking about at this time.

In the back house of the Chu family, Chu Ping was as tired as Tao Yao, Qiu Yue was confined by Chu Yuanshan, and now Forsythia came to help take care of everything around him, but after all, Forsythia was a person next to the old lady, Chu Ping was not used to it, so he didn't bother her much, just let Xiaocui come over to serve occasionally.

Besides, he is very tired now, his knees hurt, and he doesn't want to read books, he just wants to lie down and rest.

When Chu Yanran jumped in and ran in, Chu Ping was still lying on the bed.

Chu Yanran couldn't care about it so much, so she was so happy that she went to Chu Ping's bedroom, threw herself on Chu Ping's bed and said with a smile: "Haha, big brother, it's the first time I've seen you lying on the bed in broad daylight." ”

Chu Ping turned over in embarrassment, looked at Yan Ran and said, "Why did you come back?" ”

While pushing her to the main hall to speak, she saw Chu Yanran carefully holding a small furoshiki in her arms, and she didn't know what was hidden inside.

Chu Yanran knew that her two elder brothers were the same, and they were the most thin-skinned, so she didn't joke with him, but just sat at the table in the main hall with him, and said, "The second brother went to Tianjin, and I was bored at my grandmother's house alone, so I came back." ”

Chu Ping was taken aback: "Brother Kuo'er went to Tianjin?" When was this? Who did you follow? Do the old lady and the old lady know? ”

Chu Yanran said with a smile: "Haha, of course I don't know, he told his third cousin that he was stealing, and he had been gone for two or three days, and today I was allowed to come back to report to the old lady and the old lady, but I was afraid that the old lady would not allow it, so I would chase him back, and now that he has been gone for three days, he has to chase him back to Tianjin, and the old lady will naturally not send someone to chase him." ”

Chu Ping hurriedly said: "He is really bold, his father and mother are not at home, he is against the sky." ”

Chu Yanran flattened her mouth and said: "The second brother has always been bold, he can do whatever he wants, the eldest brother is the most cautious, and you are the most troublesome when you think about it." I just went back to the old lady, and they just scolded the second brother, thinking that the third cousin took him there, so that's it.

The second brother ran away, and I was scolded for him, what are you afraid of. ”

Chu Ping said angrily: "You two little things, you can't let your father and mother save worry, I watched him stay at my grandmother's house until the first month and refused to come back, I should know that you have a ghost in your heart, and I should have gone to pick you up a long time ago." This is good, when my father and mother come back from Panyu, I don't know how to worry.

Is the library on leave? ”

Chu Yanran stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "The second brother said that he only took two days of sick leave two days ago, hehe, and asked the eldest brother to do the work for him later." ”

Chu Ping looked at the eccentric Chu Yanran, and was angry: "I don't care about him!" You must have been complicit in him, and even I was in it. What did he promise you? It's rare that you didn't go to Tianjin with him. ”

Chu Yanran's face collapsed, and she said unhappily: "He lied to his grandmother and said that he had the permission of his grandfather and grandmother, and asked his third cousin to take him to Kyoto's Hongwen Museum to study and study, and I have a daughter's house, how can I go with him?" ”

Chu Ping was even more surprised: "He followed his third cousin to Kyoto?" ”

Chu Yanran hurriedly covered her mouth, and hurriedly stopped Chu Ping to whisper: "Here is my grandfather and grandmother, I said that I went to the Chu family cloth shop in Tianjin to have a look and learn to do business, don't give me a problem." ”

Chu Ping looked at the little girl and said angrily: "Where did he go, you tell me the truth." ”

Chu Yanran flattened her mouth and twisted her little body: "Let's go, anyway, by the way, he said that he would discuss with his third cousin on the way, and he would go everywhere he wanted." ”

Chu Ping was a little stunned when he heard this, his younger brother really did whatever he wanted. The anger in Chu Ping's heart was more envy and even jealousy, he had been so bold and reckless since he was a child, but he was also more resolute and resolute than himself. I don't care if I can bear the many consequences, I always do what I want to do, just like the little girl in the Tao family.

In fact, isn't it good for them to live like that, at least they are not so step-by-step, they have more places than they go, and their lives are a little more exciting.

Chu Yanran saw that Chu Ping was silent, so she was so happy that she stepped forward: "Big brother, guess why I am willing to go along with the second brother and cover for him?"

Haha, because he gave me a little pug, you see! I've got a dog! I finally have my own puppy! ”

Chu Yanran said as she finally opened the little furoshiki in her arms, and sure enough, a little white milk dog showed its head, humming and chirping as if it had not yet been weaned.

Chu Ping: ......
