He just wanted to look at him.

Lin Piao actually always had a doubt about Shen Hong, that is, what Shen Hong was thinking in the end, Shen Hong didn't seem to have any special ideas, he was always thinking about right and wrong, what he could do or couldn't do, and the only choice that went against his interests and had to insist on it was to want to be with him.

Other than that, Shen Hong is like a precision AI that doesn't generate any special ideas.

It is a child raised by himself, and he has a different kind of liking for him, but he can't talk about knowing much, ordinary people always don't know what the genius is thinking, and can only say that they have a certain understanding of him after living together for a long time, and know what he likes to eat, what color clothes he likes to wear, and what his daily living habits are.

He worries about whether they eat well, whether they are warmly dressed, whether their clothes are torn, whether they will be ridiculed by their classmates or friends because their clothes are too old, he wants to be friends with them, and they also want to help him, become his glory, and become the strength he can use.

He knew what kind of person he was, but he didn't know what he was doing or thinking.

This may be the closest people, who become each other's motivation, and do not need to know all the thoughts of each other, as long as they know that each other is growing up, and that they are moving forward on the track they want.

Lin Piao felt that he had also grown a lot in this relationship, he got family members who cared about him, friends, people he loved, someone who loved him, and people who could rely on him, but his strength was not reduced, but made them all more powerful.

They have been a family for a long time, they are closer than a family.

Lin Piao looked at Shen Hong and looked at his outfit today, he was naturally dressed up very maturely, and he looked like an adult man.

He is wearing a crown of hair inlaid with purple jade today, his complexion is fair, and he is very handsome, the son is like jade, because it is his birthday, and it is winter, and the clothes he wears are much more expensive than usual, the inner clothes are dark blue embroidered with a flowing cloud pattern, and the outside is draped in a big coat, the hem is just up to the ground, and the long body is jade, when he first walked in, he opened the curtain, and did not smile, just looked at them, it was very pressing.

Shen Hong has become a mature man.

Looking at Shen Hong like this, this mood in my heart is quite amazing.

Shen Hong looked at Lin Piao, drank the fragrant osmanthus stuffed rice wine in the cup, lowered his eyes for a moment, raised his eyelashes again, and found that Lin Piao was still looking at him.

He propped his chin and tilted his head slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and as if he was stunned, his gaze fell on him with some fascination.

What is Lin Piao looking at him?

When he saw Lin Piao looking at him like this, he didn't remind him, he just let him continue to watch, and seeing that he had been watching for a long time, he poured a glass of wine in his wine glass again, and raised his hand to Lin Piao to gesture slightly.

Lin Piao saw his movements, pinched the white porcelain wine glass in his fingers, and also picked up the tea cup in his hand, and congratulated him: "Happy birthday~~"

Lin Piao handed over the teacup and handed it to mid-air, Shen Hong stretched out his hand to approach, and the white porcelain cup gently touched the cup on the teacup, and there was a ding.

Each of them prepared a birthday gift for Shen Hong, Xiaoyue prepared a shirt that she personally supervised, Juan'er embroidered a coat for him, and the second aunt, Uncle Qiu, and the second dog, they prepared some things for daily use, such as matching hair crowns and hairpins, sandalwood ornaments in the study, a piece of fine incense ink, and so on.

Lin Piao cut the flesh and put a large jade carving into a large jade carving: "Don't underestimate him with this jade carving, the carving is the town house divine beast unicorn, and the master has been asked to open it, and then you can put it in your study." ”

Lin Piao had changed his mind from a very staunch believer in atheism, and he didn't believe in the bad anyway, but he could believe more in the good.

This kind of thing to bless the whole family, keep the town house safe, and make everyone smooth and smooth Lin Piao felt that there could still be something, even if it was just a heartfelt comfort, at least it could be regarded as a psychological enlightenment.

The second aunt and Uncle Qiu were especially satisfied with this, and they were full of praise for this jade unicorn, thinking that this thing was simply too good.

Shen Hong admired this jade unicorn on the side for a while, but it was carved vividly, it was worthy of Lin Piao's specially prepared thing, others only drew a shape, but Lin Piao carved this unicorn vividly.

He watched for a while and didn't speak, and the second dog and Da Zhuang didn't speak for a while, but the second aunt secretly leaned next to Lin Piao and asked in a low voice: "Piao'er, have you been deceived, how unsightly this is, look at how this unicorn still has this thing." ”

Lin Piao's eyes widened suddenly, and he was very upset for the Qilin: "I specially asked the craftsman to add it." ”

"Piao'er, you lack heart, ah......"

The majestic and vivid unicorn, his tail gently swinged, and a small concave dot was chiseled on the majestic cheek.

"No, the unicorn has to have a way to do it, only Pixiu can't stay in the way, otherwise the wealth will leak away, but the unicorn is not so particular, others don't leave the way for the unicorn, just I ask to stay, our family's unicorn is the healthiest unicorn." Lin Piao's logic is self-consistent, it is originally a very small carving point, and with a little bit of things, of course, it is better to be neat and tidy and not have one less organ.

Shen Hong looked at Lin Piao's serious appearance, and after thinking about it, it was also the same reason, he didn't particularly believe in these things, but even more believed that people would win the day, and these innocuous little details were nothing.

"Then put him on the bookshelf, with his head facing outwards and his body facing inward, so that no one would see him."

They discussed the arrangements for the unicorn, and then got together and talked for a while, and after chatting, seeing that the time was almost up, they asked the maid to pack up, and they walked towards Shen Hong's courtyard with their gifts, and put all the things they had sent into Shen Hong's courtyard in person, and the day was really over.

Lin Piao's gift was more special, Lin Piao felt that it was better to put it in Shen Hong's study first than to put it first, so he and Shen Hong Shanzi entered the study, holding the jade unicorn and looking left and right to see where it was more suitable.

Shen Hong pointed to the shelf on the side: "Here, this direction is suitable for Qilin." ”

Lin Piao didn't understand, nodded, stepped forward to put the unicorn down, his body was facing outward, his butt was facing the wall, and he looked very energetic, especially in such an antique study, adding a jade unicorn ornament, taking a few steps back, looking at the position of the jade unicorn from the side of the incense burner, the green smoke rose wisps, which was particularly beautiful in this scene, even if it was not for the town house, it was worth the price when it was only a small ornament that showed his identity.

Lin Piao adjusted his position and clapped his hands: "Okay, here it is, it's very good-looking." ”

After placing the jade unicorn, he put the sandalwood ornaments given by his second aunt on the bookshelf, adding some new scenery to Shen Hong's study.

Lin Piao looked sideways at Shen Hong.

It suddenly occurred to me that it was so cold today, the wind was blowing a little tightly, and it might snow at night, and if there was no longer such a deep house in the compound, there were people watching all around, just like in the small courtyard in the past, they didn't have to stay in their own yards, they could see each other when they went out of the house, they could sit under the eaves and enjoy the fire together, bake a few small sweet potatoes by the brazier, and then talk nonsense, keep talking nonsense, and talk for a long time.

In fact, since they came to Beijing, they haven't had such a day for a long time.

Shen Hong looked at Lin Piao, and naturally found that he was looking at himself again, he didn't ask, but asked him to stay, he still had something to tell him, and he didn't look at Lin Piao until everyone had gone out and left the courtyard.

"What are you thinking? I look at you with a look in my eyes as if I am a little sentimental. ”

"If you are not sentimental, how can you be sentimental, I just remember the past, I think your birthday today, if it is a birthday like in the past, in the small courtyard of the county capital, we can roast on the fire, eat something on the charcoal fire, look at the snow and look at the sky outside, and then have a conversation."

Shen Hong was slightly stunned, and also remembered that in those days, they would sit next to the brazier and sit next to each other, Lin Piao said that this would block the wind and reduce the wind-bearing area.

"Why not, it used to work, and now it can be."

Lin Piao was a little surprised: "Is it here?" "Even if no one else is allowed in, it's strange that they stay in the yard and don't go out.

Shen Hong grabbed his wrist and walked out: "No, let's go out." ”

Chapter 146

Lin Piao looked at Shen Hong and was a little stunned: "Where are you going on this big night?" ”

It's dark like this, and you're still running outside?

Shen Hong just led him out: "Go to a place where there are only the two of us, go to see the snow, and bake sweet potatoes." ”

Lin Piao: ???

Shook my Hong.

Although he knew that Shen Hong was somewhat in love, he did not expect that he still had Qiong Yao's talent, which could be able to look at the stars, the moon, the wind and snow, and have a short chat with his parents to the recipes in Beijing.

Lin Piao hurriedly grabbed a cloak in his arms and followed him out, the two walked to the backyard, and when Shen Hong led the horse out, Lin Piao was completely dumbfounded.

"Wait, wait, I'll get two lanterns, and I can't do without lights at night."

"There's next to it." Shen Hong walked to the house next to the stable, where there were usually grooms living there, but only during the day to watch the horses, only occasionally at night, more often to go to his wife's place to sleep, during the day came to take care of the horses, Shen Hong went in to find two lanterns out and lit them.

Lin Piao pulled on his hood, and the two led the horse out of the house.

"I feel like we're stealing horses." Lin Piao led the horse, and his mood was very delicate.

It's also a bit like cheating.

It's amazing.

Lin Piao heard Shen Hong laugh in the dark, and seemed to agree with his words.

When they arrived at the porter, the two said that they were going out to meet a friend because of something, and asked the porter not to be quiet, and the porter naturally knew the severity, so they led the horse out, and when they got to the street, Shen Hong took him to a street.

"Where are we going ? Have you bought a property elsewhere? ”

"Right ahead."

Lin Piao followed him into the alley, the alley here was much narrower, and most of the houses were relatively simple courtyards, and when they arrived at one place, Shen Hong knocked on the door, and a woman came to open the door with a candlestick.

Walking into the small courtyard, there were a few lanterns hanging under the eaves, although they were not brightly lit, but they also illuminated a large part of the courtyard, and the woman was not surprised to see Shen Hong, but nodded, then turned to the side, picked up the tongs, and went to add charcoal and water.

Lin Piao greeted her, but she didn't know what to call her, so she could only wave at her first, and then smile kindly, and the woman also smiled and nodded at him.

"Fan Niang can't speak." Shen Hong said softly.

So Lin Piao also nodded, but did not open his mouth.

Shen Hong thanked her, and then asked her to go to the house to rest by herself, and there was nothing to do outside, so the woman nodded, walked to the side of the corridor, and entered her own room.

Lin Piao looked at the house, left and right, the layout was small and exquisite, left and right left for people to rest, left and right for people to rest, pushed the front door open to take a look, but there was no bed, but made into a small hall for entertaining guests, there were many cushions and seats placed aside, it can be seen that some activities will be held here from time to time.

"How often do you meet here?"

"Almost."

"What is almost? What the hell is going on here? Lin Piao looked at Shen Hong.

Shen Hong first asked him to sit down next to the brazier: "Sometimes it is not convenient to gather outside, so you can invite three or five friends here to meet and have tea and talk." ”

Oh, the literati base is right?

"Wouldn't they be happy to bring an outsider like me here?" The literati are the most troublesome, although it is not impossible for them to be broad-minded, but there are too many small-minded people.

"It's okay, you're not an outsider."

They went into the hall, opened the door only twice, so that they could see the scenery outside, and to protect it from the wind, and took two cushions and sat down, and they sat around the stove.

Lin Piao saw that Shen Hong had set up all the charcoal fires, and stretched out his hand to him: "Give me the tongs to play with." ”

In the face of a pot of charcoal fire, it is really hard not to resist fiddling with it, especially when you put a few pieces of charcoal between them, and watch the flames glow orange-red in the gaps.

The two of them fiddled around a pot of charcoal for a while, Shen Hong went to the small kitchen here and brought a few small pots, inlaid them next to the charcoal basin, and covered them a little with charcoal ash.

"It's quiet." Lin Piao looked at the courtyard outside and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's been a long time since we've sat together like this and watched the scenery." Shen Hong faintly came, there were only the two of them, and a simple view.

"Yes, it seems that there are more and more people, and they are getting busier and busier on weekdays, there are many people in the house, more people outside, there are people everywhere, and it is very lively."

Lin Piao talked to him about some things at home, talking about these things in the past, it was basically all they had, life is life itself, even though Shen Hong has his own life in Ludong Academy, but life under the mountain still accounts for a large proportion of his trivial matters.

But now trivial things seem to be really trivial, you don't need to worry about it, you don't need to do it yourself, it's all done by others.

Now Lin Piao doesn't even have to wash his head by himself, he doesn't have to worry about being too cold in winter, so he has to carefully choose a good day to wash his hair at noon, and the warm house is really comfortable.

Lin Piao leaned back a little, and put his hands behind his back: "I know why some people say that rich people are actually not happy, although it is very cool to enjoy life, but after a long time, I feel that the days are a little empty, and people still need to work. ”

Shen Hong nodded, listening to him say carefully, "Are you starting to feel bored?" ”

"Maybe a little." Otherwise, he wouldn't want to learn archery and find something he hadn't tried before.

Lin Piao sighed and looked at the night outside: "After all, I have been in Beijing for almost a year, and although there is a lot of food and fun here, I have almost finished shopping around, and I can't use it as a day." ”

Lin Piao didn't expect that he would be able to say such pretending words in his life, as if a gentleman had finally had enough of playing and suddenly woke up and wanted to inherit the family business.

Shen Hong looked sideways, looked at Lin Piao quietly, and after looking at it for a long time, he also had a trace of emotion in his heart.

"You haven't cursed in a while."
