I see the snow

The day Li Si met Lin Kun at the beginning of the year was the coldest winter.

The Lin family has a long-standing reputation and is a scholarly family known to everyone in the entire Star and Wild City.

Scholars all over the world are proud to have listened to the lectures of Lin's first learning.

Every time the Lin family's academy started classes, it was always crowded with people, not to mention the threshold, and even the outer walls were full of scholars.

As for the old master of the Lin family, even the prince of the East Palace has to be called "Teacher".

——The teachers of every crown prince in the royal family come from the Lin family.

It is no exaggeration to say that the "Emperor Master" family is a family.

"Master Lin, please, please!"

In the courtyard of the Waterside Pavilion, a senior official wearing a second-rank official robe personally led a visitor, with a smile on his face and an endless smile, he said: "The dog is only six years old, and it happens to be the young master of Mr. Lin's family. The same year. It is a rare and wonderful thing for two children to study together."

The head of the Lin family smiled slightly. Although his official position was prominent, this civil servant who studied heaven and man always maintained an indescribable humility and gentleness.

He was holding a little boy who was only a little bit up to his knees in his hand. He looked handsome and handsome. When the adults were talking, he quietly raised his big black and clear eyes to look at the surrounding environment. When he clicked on his name, he just looked up. look at father.

It was snowing heavily that day, and the little boy stood in the snow with a black and heavy lynx cloak, looking as beautiful and beautiful as a finely crafted little porcelain figure.

"Pillow wind." [*Note 1]

After walking to Qiu Suo Zhai, the Patriarch of the Lin family stopped, looked at his youngest son slightly, and told him: "In the future, you must work hard and concentrate on studying here. Do you understand? Don't be lazy, playful, vain and slack .”

The child drooped his eyelashes and replied, "Yes, Father."

The Patriarch of the Li family smiled and said: "Master Lin, your son is talented and intelligent. He has already been famous in the capital of stars and fields at a young age. He is a famous young genius. How can he be vain and slack?"

Lin Huan (Huan) smiled slightly and said, "It's all about bad names, and it can't be true."

He politely and politely said to Li Changyao: "I will be sorry for you, Brother Li, in the next few days."

Li Changyao was overjoyed, and promised repeatedly: "Lord Lin, please rest assured! Your son will enjoy the same food and clothing as his own son in my house, and he will never be owed half a cent! Si Mao—"

As he spoke, he called to the side, and a child who had been held by the nanny was put down and ran to Li Changyao's side.

Li Changyao patted his head and introduced him with a smile: "This is Lin Kun, the young son of the Lin family. You two will be playmates from now on, so get along well."

This was also the first time Lin Kun met someone from their Li family—not Li Sinian, but Li Sinian's younger brother, Li Simao.

When he first saw this six or seven-year-old child who was still spoiled and spoiled, and refused to walk when it snowed, he felt very annoying.

It was completely different from meeting Li Sinian.

But Li Simao was very enthusiastic about him——

I also know that the Li family has been in decline for a long time. Although it was once a noble family, it has gradually been excluded from the dignitaries of the capital of stars and fields in recent years.

Li Changyao was unwilling, and tried his best to keep this half-dead family in order—until he heard that Lin Kun's father was going to visit Jiangzhou with the saint, and the youngest son in the family had no one to entrust, so he immediately went to the door to recommend himself.He wants to take the youngest son of his childhood friend into his house to take care of him.

He hopes to sell Lin Huan a favor. Of course, what he hopes more is that his children can become childhood sweethearts with Lin Kun, just like him and Lin Huan.

Such a relationship with the Lin family, the head of the civil servants, will always wait for the opportunity to revive the Li family one day.

"Pillow wind, pillow wind!"

In the study, the well-clothed young master Jiao ran to Lin Kun like a gust of wind, and shouted: "Look, I just bought "Jade Pearl Record" and "Long War Collection"...After school today, come to my courtyard Let's read together!"

Xiao Lin Kun was sleepy, he cupped his cheeks and looked out of the window, there was a glistening snow outside the window.

Looking at the snow, he always thought that the snow looked clean and white, but after it melted, it revealed the countless filth and ugliness hidden underneath.

"Come on, come on."

Li Simao was still persuading: "My mother made tremella jade dew soup, and she specially asked me to invite you to come."

To be honest, Lin Kun didn't want to go.

Because he could feel that the people in Li's mansion treated him well, not because they liked him so much.It's more like a flattery.

He once heard Mrs. Li tell the servants why he only ate one of the three plates of sweet cakes for breakfast today, was he dissatisfied.If they don't care about cooking the meals, it will affect the fortune of the Li family in the future, and her son's official career will definitely look good to them!

This purposeful kindness made Lin Kun at a loss.

"Why are you still drinking this white water!"

Seeing that Lin Kun didn't speak, Li Simao moved his eyes to the teacup in front of his writing desk. He widened his eyes and said in a big fuss, "Hey! Which of you don't have long eyes, dare to give Mr. Lin to drink such a lowly commoner? White water to drink. Quick, get my sweet cherry tea!"

Lin Kun hesitated to speak. At home, he always drank this kind of bland white water.

My father said it won't hurt my teeth.

But it was too late for him to stop Li Simao from pouring out his tea, only to see the thin-skinned and tender young master frowned, covered his nose in disgust and poured it out into the snow outside the window.

"hiss--"

Very lightly, there was a depressing sound of breathing in the snow.

Lin Kun was startled, and then remembered: Oops!

He just poured that cup of tea not long ago, so it's probably still hot!

"Hey--"

Li Simao was also taken aback for a moment, but saw that Lin Kun had already run out like a gust of wind—from the sound just now, one knew that Li Simao might have splashed someone when he splashed tea.

Li Simao stomped his feet angrily, and followed out reluctantly.

However, it was freezing and snowy outside, and Lin Kun was standing in front of the corner in a daze, wearing a silver-white scholar's single-clothes.

In front of him was a slightly taller, dark boy with patches on his clothes, standing on his head.

"Pillow, pillow wind."

Li Simao followed over panting, and complained coquettishly, "What are you doing running so fast, I'm exhausted from chasing you..."

But Lin Kun didn't look at him, and only set his eyes on the young man who was only wearing thin clothes on a snowy day, and his hands were already red from the cold in the snow.

"He... who is he?"

Lin Kun asked softly.

"he?"

Li Simao curled his lips: "He is the son of my father and my concubine."

——The head of the Li family was licentious when he was young, and once gave birth to a son with a concubine at home.

Later, she asked to marry the daughter of a powerful man, but the concubine was kicked out, leaving only one young son in the mansion.

However, even if you don’t need to guess, you can probably know what kind of life a child will live if he grows up in a fence without the protection of his mother.

"What's his name?"

Li Simao snorted from his nose:

"Li Sinian."

"Oh."

Lin Kun was slightly silent.He asked again: "He seems to be over eight years old, why didn't he go to school with us?"

"he?"

Li Simao almost doubted his own ears, and asked: "What books is he worthy of reading? My father said, I will call him my adjutant before and after my service, and there is no need to learn to read."

"..."

Lin Kun didn't speak.

Li Simao felt a little impatient: because he was upset with Li Sinian when he lost to Li Sinian in the school field today, he was punished to stand on his head outside the academy on purpose.

Unexpectedly, Lin Kun met him instead, and he was forced to accompany him in this freezing place for a long time.

"Pillow wind, pillow wind."

He called out softly, and said, "Let's go in, it's really freezing outside. You see, even my hand stove is almost out of heat..."

However, before the words landed, he saw Lin Kun do something that almost made his eyeballs fall out of shock——

Lin Kun walked up to Li Sinian, looked at his hair and clothes that were scalded by his cup of hot tea, and apologized earnestly:

"Sorry for staining your clothes."

He reached out and patted Li Sinian's messy and wet hair, looked into his eyes, and gestured slightly to his hands buried in the snow, which were already flushed with chilblains.

"What are you doing here?..."

"Aren't your hands cold?"

The voice is clear, gentle and gentle.

Li Sinian was stunned, and the child who looked like a banished fairy tilted his head and frowned in his inverted vision.

Clean and white as porcelain.

He asked him, cared about him, and gave Li Sinian, who had tasted cold eyes, the warmth of greeting him for the first time in nine years.

It was at this moment that Li Sinian suddenly met the little nobleman who was like a gift from the gods in this life; and the star he wanted to look up and protect in this life.
