Xia Wenqing came out of the darkness slowly, and laughed teasingly, "Hey, aren't you usually not afraid of anything? Why, you also have weak knees? Tsk tsk tsk, I thought you had the ability to run out, and you would I have the ability to carry it down, but I didn't expect... to be afraid."
Xia Wenxi looked around quickly, and after a snort, he let out a breath of relief, and walked towards the corridor while wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. She didn't pay attention to her brother, her little face was twisted into a ball, as if Xia Wenqing owed her a lot of money, her complexion was dark and gloomy.
"Hey, why don't you talk?" Xia Wenqing followed behind, "Little sister? Little sister?"
"I'm not your sister, we're enemies now!" Xia Wenxi snorted twice, striding towards her yard, "Don't follow me, I don't want to talk to you."
Xia Wenqing frowned, and chased him even tighter, "What, are you angry?"
She glanced at him, and hummed twice in displeasure, as if humming to him on purpose, rolled her eyes with her hips in her waist, "I'm angry, the kind that can't be coaxed, so don't coax me, or you will be hurt." You're welcome!"
"Little girl, now that I'm holding onto your current situation, you still dare to be disrespectful to your brother?" Xia Wenqing folded her arms around her chest, "You should think about whether you should please me, or I'll tell dad! You have to know, if dad finds out that you sneaked out, how will he punish you?"
Xia Wenxi doesn't like this, "It's not that he hasn't been beaten before, at most he goes to the ancestral hall and kneels, it's just that he has nothing to eat!"
"Wrong, dad will break your leg!" Xia Wenqing made a "cut" motion.
Xia Wenxi was so startled that her body trembled, she took two steps back subconsciously, blinked her big eyes, and stared straight at him, "Don't lie to me, don't scare me, or I, I..."
"What are you two doing?" There was a clap of thunder on the ground.
A thick voice came from the end of the corridor, and the shadow floated, getting closer and closer.
Xia Wenxi ran up to Xia Wenqing's side with her daughter-in-law, tugging at her elder brother's sleeves with a panicked expression, her brows were tightly knit, and she cried softly, "Brother...Brother..."
The little girl raised her head pitifully, her heart softened when she saw Xia Wenqing.
"Father!" Xia Wenqing saluted.
"Father!" Xia Wenxi's face turned pale.
Xia Li'an looked at the two brothers and sisters with weird faces, and couldn't help but turn his voice cold, "What are you doing? What are you arguing about here?"
"Dad..."
"Father, brother bullied me!" Xia Wenxi took a step ahead, and suddenly rushed in front of Xia Li'an, blinking with red eyes.
Xia Wenqing was stunned. Maybe it was the villain in the legend who filed the complaint first? Whoops, this little girl, she still knows how to do this now? ! However, before he could speak, Xia Wenxi cried "Wow".
Now, Xia Wenqing was completely stunned! ! !
Xia Li'an's complexion was dark, "Ask you!"
Xia Wenqing panicked, "Father, I didn't, it wasn't me! My little sister framed me, I..."
"As an elder brother, he didn't protect and take care of his younger sister well, and even made her cry when he bullied her. How did father teach you? A man is a big man, and he can't even tolerate a woman. How can he become a big weapon in the future?" Xia Li'an was full of anger.
"Father, this girl is talking nonsense!" Xia Wenqing was anxious.
Xia Wenxi's face was full of tears, "Brother, if you apologize to me, I won't pursue it!"
Xia Wenqing: "..."
"Hurry up!" Xia Li'an said coldly.
Xia Wenqing gritted her teeth, "Little sister, it's my brother's fault, next time my brother will definitely let you!"
Xia Wenxi smiled through tears, "I will forgive you this time!"
"Okay, let's all go back to our respective yards!" Xia Li'an walked away.
There was turmoil in the court, the crown prince was at odds with the princes, and he had fought countless times in private, and the emperor's health became worse and worse, so... if the emperor dies, the court will definitely fall.
Xia Li'an has something in his heart, so he naturally has no time to care about the little fights between the siblings. As long as Xia Wenxi doesn't leave the scholar's residence, other things...he can turn a blind eye to them.
A little girl, locked at home all day, what else can cause trouble
"Xia Wenxi!" Xia Wenqing gritted her teeth.
The little girl wiped away the tears on her face, and quickly squeezed out a triumphant smile, "Brother, I've accepted it!"
"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell dad?" Xia Wenqing angrily said, "You dare to wrong me, aren't you tired of living!"
Xia Wenxi walked up to him unsteadily, tilted her head and called "brother", "brother", "brother"...
Xia Wenqing: "..."
Sure enough, the children raised in the circle don't even know what shame is.
Xia Wenqing started to worry, this girl ran out today, I'm afraid she's quite embarrassing, right? It's okay to be ashamed, but don't lose anything important! After all, this girl is a blank piece of paper, and she ran out with all her thoughts, without anything in her mind.
"Little sister!" Xia Wenqing followed her sister like a dog's skin plaster, and followed her all the way back to the yard.
Lu'er cried until her eyes were red, and when she saw her young lady came back, she was so happy that she almost jumped up, "Miss, you can count..."
However, seeing Xia Wenqing who followed in, Lu'er's face...turned green in an instant, and she was so flustered that she was at a loss.
"Lu'er went to fetch water, I want to take a bath, I want to sleep, I'm tired!" Xia Wenxi completely ignored the dog skin plaster behind her.
After entering the house, throwing out the shoes and socks, Xia Wenxi lay carelessly on the bed, still comfortable at home. I was almost scared to death by that cold gnocchi today, but luckily I was lucky!
fine! fine!
"Little sister!" Xia Wenqing sat on the edge of the bed.
Xia Wenxi sat up, "What are you doing? This is my boudoir, go out."
"What did you do today?" Xia Wenqing frowned, and tentatively asked, "Did you meet any man? Taking advantage of you?"
"Taking advantage of me? How?" Xia Wenxi blinked and asked, "Brother, I really met a man, a very beautiful man, but he was very mean-spirited and fierce, almost sold me out!"
Xia Wenqing's eyes widened in surprise, "Almost sold you?"
"Yes!" Xia Wenxi gritted his teeth, "He pushed me into the water and asked me to change my clothes."
Xia Wenqing stood up like a ghost, looked Xia Wenxi carefully up and down, "Are you changing clothes in front of a man?"
"No!" Xia Wenxi shook her head, "I saw his, but he didn't see mine!"
Xia Wenqing bit her tongue for a moment, tears came out of the pain, "You, what did you see?"
Xia Wenxi folded her hands in front of her, her eyes were half downcast and she didn't speak.
"My dear mother..." Xia Wenqing breathed slightly, "Did you see the front?"
"Hmm!" Xia Wenxi pursed her lips.
Xia Wenqing tried her best to suppress the panic deep in her heart, "What happened next?"
"I ran away after that! By the way, I gave him back the money and asked him to buy medicine." Xia Wenxi replied truthfully.
Xia Wenqing: "..."
Buy medicine?
Taking a deep breath, Xia Wenqing gritted her teeth, "You gave him money to buy medicine? Why didn't he strangle you to death?"
"You all say that money is a good thing. If I give him money, why does he strangle me?" Xia Wenxi looked at his brother with a mentally retarded look, "You are really strange!"
Xia Wenqing only felt that the whole person was broken, "Then what happened after that?"
"I ran away after that!" Xia Wenxi frowned.
Everyone in the house said that his elder brother was extremely intelligent, and Xia Wenxi also thought so before, after all, his elder brother speaks well.
But now, she suspects that the people in the mansion flattered her brother too much.
"Nonsense, if you hadn't run away, would you be able to come back now?" Xia Wenqing was a little annoyed, "You say you...you say you, why did you just, just... who is that person?"
who is it
"It's a man." Xia Wenxi said.
Xia Wenqing raised her forehead, "Name!"
"have no idea!"
"???"
Xia Wenqing came back in defeat, really defeated, and had no power to fight back.
"Forget it, forget it!" Xia Wenqing frowned, "I'll tell you tomorrow, now... You should rest well, remember, don't go out easily in the future, or you will suffer a lot, you know?"
Xia Wenxi responded.
"Do you know?" Xia Wenqing yelled.
Xia Wenxi shook her body and nodded repeatedly.
Why are you so fierce
If she hadn't been caught on the spot, she wouldn't have been so well-behaved.
Xia Wenqing shook her head and walked out the door, looking very disappointed.
Xia Wenxi didn't care so much, she took a bath and changed clothes, and slept peacefully! Regardless of whether he will collapse or not, her life will always be so calm and uneventful. It has been like this for more than ten years and has never changed.
However, after tasting the sweetness, it is really not easy to restrain yourself.
Within two days, the little girl started to move around again, but... the dog skin cream brother who couldn't get rid of behind her was really a headache!
Headache, what a headache!
Bo Yunxiu took a deep breath and looked at the long street outside the carriage. There were people coming and going, but there was no familiar face, which had nothing to do with him.
"The second child has changed a lot recently, is he just like me, thinking that the palace is too oppressive, so he keeps running out?" Bo Yunchong leaned against the car wall and asked with a smile.
Bo Yunxiu didn't say a word, and kept looking out of the window, always searching for that familiar figure.
How many times is this
He obviously didn't confiscate her purse, and even stuffed a piece of silver into her purse, why...it hasn't come out yet? Are you really scared by him? Or was he locked up by Lord Xia and never had a chance to escape? !
"Second brother?" Bo Yunchong called out again, "Did you hear what I was saying?"
"I heard it!" Bo Yunxiu responded casually and continued to ignore him.
Seeing this, Bo Yunchong sighed, "You look like this, and the fourth brother also looks like this. Do you still want my big brother?"
Speaking of this, Bo Yunxiu also found it strange that the fourth child has also been mysterious recently, always running outside, which doesn't look right.
"What is fourth child doing recently?" Bo Yunxiu asked.
Bo Yunchong was stunned, "You and him have always been on good terms, didn't he tell you?"
Bo Yunxiu shook his head.
"Hey, what is this guy up to?" Bo Yunchong took a deep breath, "I have to check it out sometime!"
Bo Yunxiu didn't continue to ask, when he passed the inn last time, he got out of the carriage, and the people below asked the shopkeeper, and said that the handsome young man never came again.
"Haven't you been here?" Bo Yunxiu lowered his brows and eyes, his face became colder and colder.
It seems that there is really no way out.
Bo Yunchong was going to sit in the restaurant, but Bo Yunxiu was not interested, so he left alone.
He didn't go anywhere, just stood under the original wall, the jujube tree branches on the other side of the wall were blown by the wind, and they kept floating to the other side of the wall, but the delicate figure never appeared on the top of the wall.
Where has she gone
Not long after, there were small shouts in the wall.
"Hush, don't make any noise, I'll climb up and stay for a while, just for a while!"
"Miss!"
"Don't make noise, don't make noise! It's rare that my brother didn't stare at me today. I'll go up to let the air out, and I'm not allowed to make any more noise, or I'll let you eat date stones later, do you understand!"
"Yes! Miss, be careful!"
"I get it, I get it, you're young, you talk a lot of nonsense, and I'm not a three-year-old child."
On the top of the wall, a small head popped out, as if he was used to it, and his movements were extremely skillful, he turned over and sat on the top of the wall. Reach out to pick the dates, put them in your mouth, and bite them lightly.
Crackling!
"Well, it's so sweet! It's getting sweeter and sweeter!" Xia Wenxi tossed the dates to Lu'er, "Your reward, it's delicious!"
Looking up at Xia Wenxi who was sitting on the wall with her back turned to her, Bo Yunxiu unconsciously rolled up the corners of her lips, just quietly watching her back, watching her shaking her head comfortably.
He thought, how sweet are those dates that she loves them so much? He never touches the jujubes in the palace, he just thinks that they are...very rough and must not taste good.
Xu Shi realized that something was wrong, Xia Wenxi turned her head, and suddenly felt someone watching her from under the wall.
I thought I was dazzled by seeing it, but now I realize that it is because the enemy's road is narrow.
Tightening the jujube in her hand, Xia Wenxi quickly looked around. Fortunately, my brother is not here, neither is my father, and there are no slaves around, only a Lu'er standing under the tree, looking at her anxiously.
"You, you... why are you here?" Xia Wenxi breathed slightly.
Could it be that he came to the door to settle accounts
No, no, she gave him money.
Uh, it seems wrong again, because there seems to be an extra ingot of silver in the purse...
"I don't have any money for you, so don't try to blackmail me!" Xia Wenxi gritted her teeth, "I will never give you any more money, you should die!"
Bo Yunxiu frowned, does he look so poor? So that wherever she goes, she always thinks about her money
"Aren't you leaving? If you don't leave, I'll call someone!" Xia Wenxi threatened him, "Do you believe that I will have someone arrest you, then hang you up and beat you up? The rattan in our house is called a It’s solid, you’ll be beaten for three days, if you don’t believe it, just try it.”
"Are you often beaten?" Bo Yunxiu raised his head and asked.
Xia Wenxi rolled her eyes, "Mind your own business."
"Hurry up and get out!" Xia Wenxi couldn't reach it, the jujube was red and big, and it was hanging on the top of the tree.
Seeing her stretching her arms and gritting her teeth to pick dates, Bo Yunxiulu laughed helplessly, this girl... is really a glutton, I still remember the last time I saw her, she was holding a pile of delicious food.
"Are the dates delicious?" Bo Yunxiu asked.
"Nonsense, if the dates don't taste good, do you think I'm drinking northwest wind when I'm sitting here?" She moved slightly towards the tree trunk.
Lu'er was so startled that she kept shouting, "Miss, be careful! Be careful!"
"I know, I know, it's not the first time for me!" Xia Wenxi gritted her teeth, almost... almost enough.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, a gust of wind passed by the ear, and the big red dates in front of her eyes... disappeared? !
Gone!
Did it fall
Xia Wenxi quickly looked around, and suddenly heard a clear "cracking" sound from outside the wall. She was too familiar with this sound, it was the sound of jujubes being crushed by teeth!
Bo Yunxiu ate the jujube, feeling a little sick, it was a little sweet!
"My dates!" Xia Wenxi blushed, "You date thief!"
thief
Bo Yunxiu continued to eat dates, ignoring some people's complaints.
"My red dates!" Xia Wenxi wanted to cry.
Bo Yunxiu ate until only the date stones were left, then he glanced at her indifferently, and walked away.
"I won't let you go, you date thief!" Xia Wenxi gritted his teeth.
"What are you shouting for?" Xia Wenqing stood under the tree, "What are you shouting for?"
Xia Wenxi gritted her teeth, "I want to eat dates!"
"Didn't all the jujubes from this tree enter your stomach some year ago? Since you can climb trees, no one dared to touch them, even I didn't eat one, so you have the nerve to yell!" Xia Wenqinghei With a straight face, "Come down, Dad has something to do with you."
The corners of Xia Wenqing's eyes were moist, and he looked at the direction in which Bo Yunxiu was leaving unwillingly.
The empty alleyway has long since disappeared.
"I'm so angry." Xia Wenxi sniffled.
Xia Wenqing rolled her eyes, "I'm still angry!"
"What are you angry about?" Xia Wenxi snorted softly.
"Blind, what a disaster to have such a younger sister!" Xia Wenqing shook her head and walked slowly ahead.
Xia Wenxi rushed forward, "Just be content, I don't think my brother is blind! Hmph!"
Xia Wenqing: "..."
In the study.
Xia Li'an looked solemn, looking at Xia Wenxi's innocent face, some words got stuck in his throat, and suddenly he couldn't say a word.
"Father, what's wrong?" Xia Wenxi looked at herself, "Is there something wrong?"
After thinking about it, she quickly brushed off the dirt on her skirt. Dad must have noticed that she was climbing the wall again, so he was upset.
"Father, it's cleaned up!" Xia Wenxi rolled her lips and chuckled, "Father, what's the matter?"
Seeing her father keeping silent and looking serious, Xia Wenqing was anxious, "Father, what happened? My little sister and I are here. If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"Yes, father!" Xia Wenxi blinked her bright eyes, "My brother and I are not outsiders, what else can we not say?"
Xia Li'an nodded, "Xi'er, you have already passed the age of Ji, and it should be the age to talk about marriage."
Xia Wenxi's smile froze on his lips, "Father, what are you talking about?"
"Father, it's not like Yi Xi'er's appearance won't make her marry, why are you in such a hurry?" Xia Wenqing frowned.
"That's right, my brother hasn't married a wife yet, why should I get married first? I don't want to be sold as a wife." Xia Wenxi rolled her eyes and tugged at her elder brother's sleeve.
Xia Wenqing stood up, "Father, I haven't married a wife yet, so don't rush to marry my little sister, and keep her for another two years? In our family, the three of us depend on each other. Why do you..."
"Shut up!" Xia Li'an seldom speaks so harshly, this time he seems to be really angry, "I just want to inform you about this matter. Since ancient times, the marriage of children has been ordered by parents and the matchmaker's words, so you can't decide !"
Xia Wenxi opened her mouth, but was grabbed by Xia Wenqing.
Shaking off her elder brother's hand fiercely, Xia Wenxi gritted her teeth, "I don't want to marry, what's the good of marrying, I don't know anyone well, so dad just pushes me out like this, isn't it afraid that I will be bullied? "
After the sound fell, Xia Wenxi turned and ran away.
"Little sister?" Xia Wenqing was anxious.
Xia Li'an rubbed his brows with a headache, and sat there very irritable.
"Father, did something happen to Shang Shang?" Xia Wenqing asked.
Xia Li'an glanced at him and remained silent.
"Father!" Xia Wenqing tightened her sleeves, "Did something happen to you? Or, did you know that something was about to happen, so you pushed your sister out?"
"Don't ask, go out and see her, don't let her cause any trouble!" Xia Li'an sighed softly.
Xia Wenqing thought for a while, "Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ready to do something? Father doesn't intend to attach himself, but..."
"Get out!" Xia Li'an had a splitting headache.
At this point, Xia Wenqing didn't say anything more, bowed and left the study.
The little girl would be angry now, and would sit in the corridor chattering.
"Why be angry, girls are going to marry sooner or later!" Xia Wenqing snorted, "Don't be angry, what's the big deal, talk to dad later, and ask him not to marry you off so early. It's impossible , if you cry, make trouble and hang yourself again, he will definitely soften his heart."
Xia Wenxi remained silent.
"Given you so many storybooks, have you seen them all?" Xia Wenqing sighed softly.
Seeing that the little girl seemed really angry, Xia Wenqing thought for a while, then took out a piece of silver.
Xia Wenxi's eyes were straightened, her eyelashes were fluttering, and the stream of light in her eyes was shining brightly. She quickly grabbed it and held it in her palm, "It's not too bad! When I get angry in the future, remember Coax me with silver."
"Not angry anymore?" Xia Wenqing smiled.
Xia Wenxi curled her lips, "Of course I'm angry, I... I don't want to leave you! In this world, you are my closest and dearest people. If one day even you are gone, then I... will go with you too. !"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Xia Wenqing frowned, "I'm young, why are you cursing me? Don't worry! Dad is a scholar of the dynasty, and our place is very safe. You just need to be your university student." Miss, you don't need to think about anything else. The one father found for you must be a dragon and phoenix among men, and if you marry, you will definitely not suffer or be bullied!"
Xia Wenxi didn't speak, and played with the money in his palm.
"Little sister!" Xia Wenqing hesitated, "Why don't you do this! Don't get angry with Dad, I... will take you out for a walk quietly, let's go quietly, come back quietly, what do you think?"
Xia Wenxi's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Yes!" Xia Wenqing nodded solemnly, "The premise is that if Dad really arranges for you to marry, don't object, don't get angry with Dad, and obediently listen to Dad!"
"Don't marry the blind, the lame and the fool." She blinked and muttered.
Xia Wenqing smiled, "Don't worry, it must be a dragon and a phoenix among people."
"I'm going out to eat a lot of delicious food, the kind that sit on the side of the road." Xia Wenxi pursed her lips.
"Okay!" Xia Wenqing nodded, "Then you obediently listen to Dad!"
"Okay!" Xia Wenxi stretched out her little finger, "Pull the hook, don't lie."
The two brothers and sisters pull and pull, each with their own thoughts.
However, Xia Wenqing really did not lie, taking advantage of his father's busy work, he quietly took his sister out through the back door.
This time, Xia Wenxi was finally able to walk on the road swaggeringly. At first glance, he was really a valiant young man!
"Hey, brother Xia, who is this son?"
Lu met a literary friend, Xia Wenqing was stunned, how should I introduce this
