royal family

Yan Daichuan was actually a little surprised when he received a call from his parents asking him to go to Shao's house for breakfast the next day.

Although family members will also talk on the phone when working outside, most of them will choose a relatively fixed time.The way Yan Daichuan gets along with his parents is more like superiors and subordinates than relatives. Including phone calls, the communication and contacts between the two parties tacitly guarantee to give each other enough space and respect.

Rarely, his parents told him one thing in an undeniable tone.

After hanging up the phone, Yan Daichuan leaned against the back of the car without saying a word, his expression didn't change, but he fell into deep thought instantly.

In fact, he knew about the relatives of the Shao family a long time ago. When he was a child, Li Yuke often told him that he also had a gentle and amiable aunt and a cute and beautiful brother.Yan Daichuan was really looking forward to this "beautiful and cute" younger brother when he was a child. No one in Yan's family played with him, so he fantasized that one day he could live with this legendary "brother" and love each other.

He was born to mature faster than children of the same age.Later, when he grew up, such insignificant relatives were slowly left behind by him.He was also in his teens when he met Shao Yan for the first time, and Yan Daichuan was actually quite disappointed with that real person who was completely different from the perfect younger brother he imagined in his childhood memories.It's just that this kind of obsession from childhood comes and goes quickly. What kind of person Shao Yan is has nothing to do with him fundamentally.

He knew what his mother wanted to say when she asked him to go to Shao's house, and that he should repay the kindness of the older generation. Unfortunately, this time, the matter may not be as simple as he thought at the beginning.

Yan Daichuan didn't have any psychological pressure, he was not such a meticulous person on the outside.After taking a light sleep on the plane, it was almost five o'clock when we arrived in City A, Yan Daichuan hesitated for a while, but still ordered the driver who came to pick him up the address of Shao's big house.

City A in the morning is not noisy, especially in the scenic area where Shao Yan's family lives.The rising sun dyed half of the morning glow red, the river along the way was sparkling, and the trees were shady, and there was no more car in sight at the end of the road. When Yan Daichuan got off the car, he couldn't help taking a deep breath, only feeling Refreshing.

Not far away, the small villa of the Shao family is hidden among the dense foliage. The road along the river is full of towering old trees.

He glanced at his watch and found that it was only [-]:[-], so he turned around and walked towards the river embankment with his chest wide open——I'd better bother him later.

The bodyguards came out of the car and gathered around him. A group of people discussed some details of the work in low voices. Yan Daichuan was stunned for a moment in the middle of speaking.

He turned his head slowly and with some confusion, and saw a young man who was half a head shorter than him standing behind him and looking at him expressionlessly. After three seconds of staring at him, this man suddenly showed a A smile with no clear meaning: "Yan Daichuan?"

"..." Yan Daichuan's pupils narrowed slightly, and he raised his hand to stop the group of bodyguards around him who were on alert when they discovered Shao Yan's trace, but his other hand was already in his pocket, and he slowly pulled the safety catch on the gun, "You who is it?"

Shao Yan glanced at his hand with downcast eyes, smiled even wider, and took a step back with a kind of teasing pleasure: "It's not easy for us brothers to meet each other, don't be so nervous."

As he said, a group of people crossed Yan Daichuan and walked towards the gate of Shao's house.Hehe, Xiaochuan Dachuan is nothing more than that, he is better than him as Shao's mother said.

Yan Daichuan stared at his back, only then did he realize that the other party was wearing a navy blue sportswear, and a sports towel with a cartoon tomato pattern was hanging around his neck, as if he had come out for morning exercises in the morning.

"... Shao Yan?" Seeing the other party take out the key to open the door, Yan Daichuan called out with some hesitation.

Shao Yan turned his head, glanced up and down at him, and made Yan Daichuan a little unaccustomed to his smile: "It's me, please come in."

After he finished speaking, he didn't say hello, and walked in on his own.Yan Daichuan stood where he was and didn't move immediately. After a while, the tense vigilance slowly faded away. The faces of a group of bodyguards around him were ugly, and the captain of the bodyguard was even more ashamed: "It's our fault... "

Yan Daichuan raised his hand and did not let him continue. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, so his skills may not be inferior to these bodyguards.But even so, he still didn't notice Shao Yan approaching just now.

He looked at the direction in which Shao Yan was leaving, and after the other party greeted him, he actually just left on his own, without showing the slightest bit of enthusiasm and courtesy from his host.Yan Daichuan has never received such a careless cold reception, but now he doesn't have time to carefully measure his status in the hearts of the Shao family.He just remembered that when he met Shao Yan for the first time many years ago, at the banquet he attended by chance, the little fat man with his head bowed and huddled behind his father made his years of expectations for "cute brother" fade away in an instant. Jing, after saying a few words, Yan Daichuan's remaining interest was also wiped out.In recent years, he has occasionally heard news about the grandchildren of the Shao family, but the mediocre, short and fat Shao Yan is always there as a foil.It's been so long, and this is the second time Yan Daichuan saw him, but the young man who gave him a lot of shock just now is completely different from the introverted fat man who has a deep-rooted image in his memory.

Shao Yan was in a good mood. After so much effort, he finally made it to the first floor today.Although the internal strength he cultivated is mediocre, the tempering of the body is far from comparable to other exercises. The old eunuch who gave Shao Yan this exercise once said that cultivating swords and swords is far inferior to cultivating oneself importance.The sword is just a tool, but the body is the most fragile existence that must be protected. Only by mastering the fundamentals can one pursue deeper martial arts without any hesitation.

Shao Yan hadn't had a chance to touch that layer yet, after all he was only in his prime before his death.However, stepping into the first floor has brought him a lot of convenience. These days, he uses climbing trees and catching birds to practice light exercises. He used to catch two or three sparrows at most in an hour of morning exercise, but he succeeded again and again this morning. A dozen or so birds, although he released all the birds he caught in the end, but the birds along the road along the river were still terribly frightened, and all of them turned pale.

He hummed the new songs of this era that he learned these days, went back to his room to take a shower and changed clothes, when he went downstairs, Aunt Liu and Aunt Wei had already woken up, greeting Yan Daichuan who came in.Yan Daichuan left the group of black-clothed bodyguards outside the house, while he sat on the sofa and drank tea solemnly. His unsmiling appearance made Aunt Liu, who was used to joking with the Shao family, a little cautious, and her attitude was extraordinarily polite .The movement of Shao Yan going downstairs alarmed the man drinking tea with his head bowed. Yan Daichuan sat with a dead face and looked at Shao Yan.

He froze for a moment.

Just now Shao Yan was wearing a bulky tracksuit and a sweat towel covered in sweat, and Yan Daichuan was frightened by him again, so he didn't look at him carefully.Now the other party has changed into snow-white home clothes, and his hair has not been dried after washing, and it is wet against his face, making people look like he is shining against his complexion.It was only then that Yan Daichuan discovered that the other party's facial features were actually very good-looking, a pair of peach blossom eyes with slightly upturned eye tails, and thick eyelashes, which made his eyes look very energetic. His nose was small and straight, with a curved tip He has a lovely curved nose, and the lines of his lips are also very clear. The corners of his mouth are upturned like the corners of his eyes. Even when he has no expression, he looks like he is smiling slightly.

Shao Yan is very fair, not just his skin color, it seems that the coloring of his whole body is lighter than that of ordinary people.His hair and eyebrows are very thin and soft, and they look slightly brown under the strong light, but it's not obvious, his pupils are more amber, and his lips are white and pink, which is very cute.

He was a bit fat, and there was nothing wrong with his body shape, but his cheeks were a bit fleshier compared to a boy of this age.He is tender and has a small and pointed chin, which looks a bit like baby fat that hasn't completely faded away. When he smiles, his mouth is pursed and the corners of his mouth are turned up. This image is unexpectedly similar to that of Yan Daichuan in the past. The appearance of the "cute brother" described in the movie overlapped.

Because of this, his eyes softened a lot, and even when Shao Yan greeted him, he also nodded seriously to him for the first time.

Shao Yan rolled up his sleeves as he went downstairs: "Didn't you eat breakfast?"

Yan Daichuan, who was not used to such homely greetings, froze for a moment: "...huh?"

Shao Yan glanced at him, smiled without interest, and went straight to the kitchen without saying a word.

Yan Daichuan frowned, I don't know if it was an illusion, he always had a feeling that... Shaoyang didn't seem to like him very much.

Take the minced pork and pork skin jelly with the crab roe and crab meat that was picked out the day before and take the minced meat out of the refrigerator. Shao Yan is very energetic and kneads the dough to be used in two or three strokes. After thinking about it, I am afraid I am too busy Come, and yelled out again, asking Aunt Liu to go in and help him get the small cage.

Aunt Liu rushed there in a hurry, Yan Daichuan sat there in confusion, and asked Aunt Wei only after she was sure that Shao Yan was cooking breakfast: "Why is he cooking the food at home?"

Aunt Wei was a little puzzled. She followed his gaze to the kitchen before reacting, and immediately smiled: "You mean Yanyan? It wasn't him who did it before, but after being discharged from the hospital, people are more picky than before. Three You have to cook the meals yourself. But his cooking skills are much better than Sister Liu's, and now husband and wife generally don't eat meals made by others."

Yan Daichuan couldn't imagine the scene of a rich third generation cooking for his parents every day. He also wanted to ask Aunt Wei Shao Yan if he had always been so diligent, so he heard the sound of the door unlocked from upstairs.After a while, Li Yuke and Shao's mother walked down arm in arm after finishing dressing.

"Mom." Yan Daichuan stood up and said hello meticulously, then looked at Mother Shao, "Aunt Zhao."

Shao's mother yelled: "This child is so beautiful!" She rushed forward and touched her head and face, as if she couldn't put it down.Yan Daichuan dodges in panic.

"Just call auntie." Li Yuke looked around instead of helping her son, "Where's Yanyan? I just heard his mother say that this kid cooks his own breakfast every morning. What's for this morning? "

"..." Yan Daichuan managed to escape Mother Shao's overly enthusiastic care, trimmed his hair, looked at Father Shao and Yan Yi who had also walked out of the room upstairs, and said in a deep voice, "Let's get down to business. .”

Who cares about him?After Yan Yi and Father Shao went downstairs, they huddled together on the sofa, took the warm boiled water handed over by Aunt Wei, and opened their mouths to ask, "What's for breakfast?"

"..." Yan Daichuan pursed his lips, and clenched the tea cup in his hand a little bit.

Aunt Liu poked her head out from the kitchen: "Eat fish porridge and crab roe steamed buns, just wait another 10 minutes!"

"Dad." Yan Daichuan tried to get the topic right, "Let's talk about being right first..."

"Oh, why are you in a hurry." Yan Yi waved his hands at him nonchalantly, and then asked Aunt Wei, "Is there any duck soup left from last night? Why don't you get a bowl first?"

"The duck soup is all gone."

"Oh, how did this happen." Yan Yi looked innocent like he had nothing to do with the whole pot of soup yesterday, "What about the pumpkin cake? Is there any more pumpkin cake?"

Aunt Wei was a little embarrassed: "I've finished eating that too."

"The lamb chops are gone?" Li Yuke over there also interjected upon hearing this.

"..." The people around seemed to have carved out a small world of their own, Yan Daichuan had a straight face, somewhat dissatisfied in his heart.He simply sat back and continued to drink tea without talking, anyway, he shouldn't be the one who is most worried about the Shao family's problems.

He only pretended to be his parents and was playing tricks on him on purpose. He was thinking that he would have to indulge the appetite of this group of people as slowly as he did now.Then suddenly, there was a fresh fragrance from the direction of the restaurant that shocked him.

He straightened up immediately, clenched the cup in his hand, and his eyes became sharper: "What's the smell?"

Aunt Liu from the kitchen came out with a deep casserole. The lid of the casserole was slightly hidden, and the aroma that could catch people's mind in an instant came from here.

It seemed that the bubbling sound could still be heard in the casserole. Aunt Liu put the pot on the table and lifted the crooked lid. The aroma spread from the pot at an incredible speed in an instant. Successfully rescued Yan Daichuan from the lonely sofa.

Seeing that his parents and Shao Yan's parents had already sat down at the dining table consciously, Yan Daichuan was a little burdened, so he slowly walked over pretending not to care, but the corner of his eye kept hitting the ugly casserole on the table.
