Mr. Ruan went out to do business. Ruan Jiu, who was still young, leaned on the pillar in front of the house and watched his father leave. When he couldn't see his father, he couldn't help crying. No one tried to persuade him, mother It's no use coaxing me personally.

There was no other way but to let the servant next to him watch and wait for him to cry slowly.

In the end, 15-year-old Ruan He came back from school and saw someone stuck to the pillar, only to realize that it was his younger brother.

Ruan Jiu was tired from crying, with two tears in his mouth, he hugged the pillar and fell asleep. When he was in a daze, he was picked up by others.

He stomped his feet and pursed his mouth to cry again, but Ruan He patted him on the back, so he pursed his mouth and held back.

"elder brother."

Ruan He took out a handkerchief and wiped his face: "What's wrong with you?"

Ruan Jiu hugged his elder brother's neck and whispered, "Daddy is gone."

"Daddy is going to earn money."

"No money."

"If you don't make money, you can't maintain your body, and you will always get sick."

Ruan Jiu nodded smugly: "Then it's better not to make money, so you don't need to take medicine."

Ruan He paused: "Daddy doesn't earn money, you can't even eat."

Ruan Jiu muttered, "No way."

The Ruan family was not rich at first, and sometimes they were too poor to let go of their troubles. It was only after Ruan Jiu was born that things turned around and he had money.

He hadn't experienced it, of course he didn't know.

However, Ruan Jiu brought good luck to the Ruan family, but his health was not very good all the time, and he always had to take medicine to nourish himself.

In order to earn money for him to use, Master Ruan's business grew bigger and bigger, and now it has reached Jiwu's side.

Ruan He coaxed his younger brother and put him down.

Ruan He took off his schoolbag, hung it on Ruan Jiu's body, and patted him: "Go in and find mother, mother is boiling sugar water."

Ruan Jiu crossed the threshold with his short legs, his schoolbag dragged on the ground, and ran in rattling.

Master Ruan came back a few months later, Ruan Jiu hugged his father and cried for a while, until Master Ruan took out the gift for him.

A silver sachet.

Ruan Jiu held the sachet half the size of his palm in both hands, lowered his head, and took a deep breath.

"It smells so good!"

Master Ruan said: "Smell it, take it and smell it slowly, with this, you don't need to take medicine anymore."

"Really?" Ruan Jiu's eyes lit up, hugged his baby, and hid in a corner where no one was around.

Madam Ruan brought hot water to wash and shave Master Ruan.

Mrs. Ruan said: "You coax him to play again, next time you are sick and take medicine, it will be even more difficult to coax him."

Master Ruan raised his head: "There are medicinal materials in there, and children with physical weakness take them. I specially bought them from the merchant. I showed it to the doctor, and it really can strengthen the body."

Mrs. Ruan smiled: "Okay, you'd better make sure that he doesn't need to take medicine again, next time you take medicine, you go and arrest him."

"I'll go and I'll go..."

Before Master Ruan finished speaking, Mrs. Ruan exclaimed, "Xiao Jiu!"

Ruan Jiu squatted in a small corner, with his head against the wall, already passed out.

He wanted to smell the sachet more, but his breathing was too fast, so... just...

What an embarrassing faint.

Ruan Jiu had a dream.

He dreamed of a large grassland, with calves and lambs on the grassland, and a house he had never seen before, which was completely different from the houses in Liang Guo.

He didn't want to see the house, he wanted to see the lambs and calves, so he ran on the grass towards the cows and sheep in the sky for a while, sweating all over, suddenly felt a little dizzy, so he sat down quickly, He found out the little pouch his mother had prepared for him, and took a piece of candy to eat.

After eating the lump of candy, Ruan Jiu felt better, so he was ready to continue watching the cattle and sheep.

But those cows and sheep always seem to be far away from him. He has been running for so long, and he never comes close.

Ruan Jiu was a little discouraged, when a white butterfly flew past him, Ruan Jiu was quickly distracted and ran to chase the butterfly.

The butterfly flew all the way to the weird house, over the fence, and flew into the house.

Ruan Jiu hesitated for a moment, but for the sake of the butterfly, he pushed open the door and glanced into the house.

In the yard, there was a child younger than him, with a slightly dark complexion, wearing clothes he had never seen before, and holding a dagger in his hand. He was gesticulating, and his movements were neat. Every time he swung the knife, he would make a "hey ha" .

Kind of scary.

Ruan Jiu was afraid of being stabbed by him, so he didn't dare to go forward, he opened the door, and just when he was about to leave, the child found him.

His gaze was not very friendly, like a wolf cub who saw its prey, the kind with green eyes.

The child asked him, "Who are you?"

Ruan Jiu was frightened and froze in place, and directly reported his family name: "I am Ruan Jiu."

"What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to catch butterflies."

He Lianzhu choked, he had never seen such a stupid person.

He was patient, and on his slightly immature face, there was a calm expression that didn't match his age: "I'm asking you, how did you come here?"

Ruan Jiu touched the tip of his nose: "I came here chasing butterflies."

He Lianzhu was about to die of anger: "I mean, how did you get here?"

Ruan Jiu was going to be pissed off too: "I told you, I came chasing butterflies!"

Just at this moment, the butterfly circled in the air, and finally landed on the blade of the dagger in Helian Zhu's hand.

Ruan Jiu hissed at He Lianzhu, and approached lightly, trying to catch the butterfly.

Now He Lianzhu believed it, believed that he really came here to catch butterflies.

I also believe that this child is really not very smart.

Before Ruan Jiu got close, He Lianzhu moved his hand and scared the butterfly away.

Ruan Jiu was annoyed, and stomped his feet angrily: "I told you not to move, run away now."

He Lianzhu snorted, he didn't care about butterflies.

Seeing his indifferent appearance, Ruan Jiu stomped his feet angrily. After stomping for a while, he found that his feet were numb, so he quickly took out a small pouch to eat candies.

Mother said that as long as he feels uncomfortable, he will immediately take a sugar pill, and he must remember it.

He Lianzhu's eyes couldn't help falling on his hand, and he deliberately asked: "What is that?"

"It's sugar."

Ruan Jiu didn't receive his hint at all, puffed his mouth, and chewed the candy into pieces.

He Lianzhu asked again: "Is it delicious?"

"Delicious." Ruan Jiu didn't hold grudges, and quickly forgot about the butterfly just now.

He walked to Helian Zhu's side, Helian Zhu stretched out his hand towards him, and he also stretched out his hand, took Helian Zhu's hand, and then pressed it against his cheek.

"Listen." Ruan Jiu chewed the candy.

Helen Chu choked again.

Before he could speak again, Ruan Jiu stuffed a candy into his mouth.

Ruan Jiu smiled and said, "I knew you wanted to eat too."

He Lianzhu wanted to refute, but was too embarrassed to refute.

He pursed his lips, it was indeed delicious.

Ruan Jiu asked again: "Do you want to eat another one?"

He Lianzhu thought for a while, then nodded slightly.

"Then I'll give you another one." Ruan Jiu stuffed him another one, and then ate one for himself.

Niangqin said that if there are other friends next to the candy, it should be shared among the friends.

After eating two or three candies, Ruan Jiu remembered to ask him, "What's your name?"

"Helian Zhu."

"Oh." In fact, Ruan Jiu didn't understand, the three words "He Lianzhu" were all uncommon words for him, and he hadn't learned them yet.

Ruan Jiu changed the subject: "What are you doing here?"

He Lianzhu bit the candy: "Practice martial arts."

"Wow."

In fact, Ruan Jiu couldn't understand what "practicing martial arts" was.

If He Lianzhu said "practice martial arts", then Ruan Jiu would understand.

Ruan Jiu continued to feed He Lianzhu to cover up the fact that he didn't understand.

It didn't take long for the two of them to eat all the candy in the purse.

Ruan Jiu put away the purse: "No more."

He Lianzhu said: "Where did you buy this? I'll let them buy it next time."

Ruan Jiu thought for a while: "In Xiaoyunzhai."

"Xiaoyunzhai? There is no place with that name in Xiyuan City."

"In Yong'an City..."

Before Ruan Jiu finished speaking, the butterfly flew past his eyes, and when his eyes went dark, he could no longer see his friend in front of him.

When Ruan Jiu woke up, he was on his own bed.

The family members watched over him, and were relieved to see him wake up.

Mother helped him up: "How do you feel? Are you still uncomfortable?"

Ruan Jiu shook his head, as if he still felt the sweetness left by eating sugar in his mouth.

He asked, "Where's the little pig?"

The word "He Lianzhu" was too long for him, and it was a bit of a mouthful, so he only memorized the last word and simplified him to "little pig".

Everyone in the family was taken aback.

"What pig?"

Mrs. Ruan quickly realized: "Oh, Xiaojiu dreamed about a little pig. Mother will ask someone to find you a little pig tomorrow."

Ruan Jiu nodded with a vague understanding, Madam Ruan picked up the soup on the table in front of the bed: "Come, drink some medicine first."

Ruan Jiu was shocked, opened his eyes wide, and looked around: "I...my little sachet!"

"Here, here." Master Ruan took down the silver sachet hanging from the tent and handed it to him.

Ruan Jiu hugged the small sachet: "With this, you don't need to take medicine!"

"No." Madam Ruan cast a sullen glance at Master Ruan, and said resolutely, "Come here and drink the medicine, quickly, just take a couple of sips."

There is no way, Ruan Jiu still has no way to resist the power of his parents and brother, he can only be held firmly, squeeze his mouth open, and drink the medicine obediently.

After drinking the medicine, Ruan Jiu said with a bitter face, "I want candy!"

"Okay, eat candy, eat candy." Madam Ruan took out his small purse, ready to give him candy, but was surprised to find that the bag was still full of candy in the morning, and all of them disappeared.

"You ate all the candy?"

"Yeah." Ruan Jiu nodded with tears in his eyes, "And..."

He originally wanted to say that there are still piglets, but his mother got a little angry before he finished speaking: "Don't eat it."

At the same time, the original city of Jiwuxi, thousands of miles away.

In the palace, the young Helian Zhu woke up from his dream.

He had a strange dream.

Martial arts masters praised him for his hard work, logically speaking, it was not a strange thing for him to dream that he was practicing martial arts.

However, halfway through his martial arts practice in his dream, a silly child suddenly appeared, and he said that he came here after chasing butterflies.

He Lianzhu also ate his candy.

It was delicious, He Lianzhu pursed the corners of his lips, as if he could still feel a little sweetness.

He remembered, the little boy, he said his name was—

Soft Chirp.

That's weird, but it fits his goofy look, just a squishy little chug.

He Lianzhu felt that he might have met a little bird goblin.

When Ruan Jiu was a little older, after he knew what martial arts was and how to write the word "Helianzhu", he tried to tell his elder brother about Helianzhu, but his elder brother didn't believe it at all.

"Really." Ruan Jiu pestered his elder brother, "Brother, I really dream about piglets every night, even when I take a nap. We have known each other for three years."

Ruan He touched his head: "If you dream about other people every night, brother will really be angry."

Ruan Jiu froze, not daring to say any more.

If my brother didn't believe it, my parents wouldn't believe it either.

Parents thought that he had such a dream because he wanted to hang out with his friends so much, so they waved his hands and let him go out to play all day.

Ruan Jiu wanted to talk to them again, but this would delay the time for playing. After thinking about it, he went out to find friends.

It was the spring of Liang Guo, and the fierce winter, Ruan Jiu and his friends went out of the city, flying kites and playing swings—they could not go there until the little girls got tired of playing swings.

Ruan Jiu and his friends are worried to death, why only little girls can play on the swing?Why can't the little boy?

They waited for a long time until it was almost dark before they could go to play.

Before one person had his turn, the family sent someone to pick him up.

Several people waved their hands to say goodbye, and when they were leaving, Ruan Jiu suddenly had an idea: "I see, we will come here tomorrow in skirts, so that we can play on the swing with them."

Several friends said it was a good idea.

Because Ruan Jiu's family runs a silk and satin shop, they made an appointment to meet in Ruan Jiu's shop early tomorrow morning, and change their skirts before going out to play.

Ruan Jiu is so smart!

After running wildly outside all day, Ruan Jiu relaxed and felt tired.

When he got home, he didn't eat much for dinner, so he put down the bowls and chopsticks and wanted to go back to sleep. Mrs. Ruan coaxed him to eat two more bites, but he only said to sleep for a while and then get up to eat.

Ruan Jiu changed his clothes and fell asleep on the bed without even combing his hair.

The sachet was still hanging by the curtain, and Ruan Jiu's last thought before going to sleep was that it seemed like he hadn't dreamed of a pig for a long time.

At this time, He Lianzhu was already eight years old. He had practiced martial arts for three years and studied for three years.

He is a righteous prince, but for some reason, there is always a soft chirping goblin haunting him, coming to him every night, giving him sweets, and telling him some things about playing in the "Jiu clan".

He Lianzhu always maintains a calm expression, but he is embarrassed to say that he actually likes soft chirping a little bit.

He doesn't have any other friends in Guiwu. Apart from practicing martial arts, he studies every day. Only when he sleeps at night can he take a break to catch his breath.

But he hasn't slept much these days.

His father was seriously ill, so he sent someone to take him back to Shangjing City. He has been on the road for the past few days, the carriage was bumpy, and he didn't fall asleep much.

He couldn't sleep, so naturally he couldn't see Ruanjiu.

At this time, the carriage stopped in front of the gloomy imperial palace, and the attendant outside called out: "Prince, we have arrived."

He Lianzhu lifted the curtain of the carriage, got out of the carriage, and walked quickly into the palace.

Ruan Jiu found himself dreaming again, which meant that he could see Helian Zhu again.

But this time the scene in the dream was something he had never seen before.

It may be that He Lianzhu moved to live again.

It's just that this place is too big, Ruan Jiu couldn't find where He Lianzhu was.

He went round and round, feeling that he had lost his way and couldn't get out. After thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

He picked up a stone, squatted down in the corner, and drew a bird.In this way, when He Lianzhu sees it, he should know that he has been here.

He just drew the bird's beak when the white butterfly flew past him again.

Ruan Jiu threw away the stone and stood up, and ran after the butterfly.

I don't know how many corridors have been bypassed. He seemed to be stepping on a stone and almost fell. When he looked up again, he found himself in a dark room.

The room is very large, and there seems to be someone on the other side of the curtain.

Ruan Jiu thought that He Lianzhu should be over there, so he trotted forward and shouted: "Little pig..."

He quickly stopped talking, because the atmosphere in the room was very low.

With his back facing him, He Lianzhu knelt in front of the couch, lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly.There was still a man lying on the couch, who seemed to have just died.

When He Lianzhu heard his voice, he turned his head suddenly, as if he was a little surprised.

He obviously wasn't asleep, why did Ruanjiu still come over?

Seeing him looking at him, Ruan Jiu touched his face strangely.

When he saw the person on the couch, he decided not to speak.He was going to tell Helian Zhu what he was playing with his friends today, but now it seems that it is better for him not to speak.

He soon discovered that Helian Zhu's eyes were red, and he seemed to be crying.

Don't know what happened.

Ruan Jiu hesitated for a moment, and stepped forward to meet his gaze.He stretched out his hand, wanting to hug Helian Zhu.

He Lianzhu knew what he wanted to do, so he didn't move, and stayed where he was, waiting for Ruan Jiu to come and hug him.

But before Ruan Jiu's hand touched him, a gust of fragrant wind blew by, and that butterfly flew by again.

Ruan Jiu just disappeared.

He Lianzhu stood up suddenly, looked around, and ran outside to look for it.

Gone, Ruan Jiu is gone, and Ruan Jiu doesn't want him anymore.

Ruan Jiu, who was about to hug He Lianzhu, was woken up by his mother.

"Xiao Jiu? Xiao Jiu? Get up and eat something before going to bed, or you'll be starving."

Ruan Jiu rubbed his eyes and sat up: "Mother, I just..."

Forget it, my mother wouldn't believe it anyway.

It's better to go back and find He Lianzhu, he looks very sad.

Ruan Jiu took the porridge bowl with both hands, held the bowl, and took a quick sip.

Madam Ruan patted him on the back: "Slow down, you really are hungry."

"Yeah." Ruan Jiu nodded, drank half a bowl of shredded chicken porridge, and returned the bowl to Mother, who blinked, "Mom, I'm so sleepy."

"Okay, okay, go to sleep."

Ruan Jiu lay back on the bed and covered the quilt.

After my mother went out, I thought about it, got up and took off the sachet, hugged it in my arms and fell asleep.

After meeting Ruan Jiu, He Lianzhu didn't care much about his going or staying. Anyway, as long as he fell asleep, Ruan Jiu had a chance to come, at most not every few days.

But now, Ruan Jiu disappeared before his eyes.

He Lianzhu panicked for no reason, what if Ruan Jiu never came again?

He spoke to his attendants and went back to his room to sleep.

From Xiyuan back to Shangjing, he has been on the go for several days, and has not slept for several nights, so it is not a big deal to sleep for a while now.

He Lianzhu lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and quickly fell asleep without distracting thoughts.

This time it wasn't Ruan Jiu who came to look for him, this time it seemed that he was the one who came to look for Ruan Jiu.

It was also a building he had never seen before. Ruan Jiu and a group of friends were playing on a swing.

He hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he should go or not.

While still hesitating, Ruan Jiu was pulled off the swing by his friends. His time had come and it was time to change.

Ruan Jiu reluctantly watched his friends play, and when he turned around, he saw He Lianzhu.

Ruan Jiu's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward quickly: "I thought I wasn't dreaming." He took Helian Zhu's hand: "Do you want to play with us? I'll let them let you play first..."

Before Ruan Jiu finished speaking, He Lianzhu held his hand tightly and hugged him.

The little pig cried.Ruan Jiu patted him on the back, trying to coax him with the words his mother usually used to coax him, but he couldn't remember a word.

Alas, there is no way, the little pig hugged him tightly, and he could only hug the little pig tightly.

When he woke up, Ruan Jiu felt even more tired.

Because he stood all night in his dream and was hugged by Helian Zhu all night, he was really tired.

Ruan Jiu turned over, ready to go back to sleep.

Not long after, Shiba called him outside: "Young master? Get up soon, didn't you make an appointment today to go on the swing with His Highness the Eighth Prince?"

Ruan Jiu shook his head and buried himself in the quilt: "I won't go, I'm so sleepy."

He was hugged by He Lianzhu all night, and Xiao Mingyuan and the others played on the swing in his dream all night. They had played all night, so they didn't have to play during the day.

He wants to sleep.

A few days later, Ruan Jiu didn't see He Lianzhu again.

I don't know how he is.

When going to bed that night, Ruan Jiu thought about it, then took off the sachet and hugged it again.

He fell asleep again in a daze.

This time before he realized where he was, he saw Helian Zhu being bullied.

In the palace covered with white cloth, a woman stretched out her hand and poked He Lianzhu's forehead, her fingernails scratched the corner of his eyes, almost piercing into his eyes.

Ruan Jiu didn't have time to react, so he ran up and hugged He Lianzhu.

He Lianzhu staggered two steps back, seeing him, his eyes were red again: "Ruanjiu!"

Ruan Jiu hugged him: "I'm here."

After this incident, it seemed that nothing major happened to Helian Zhu.

He went back to the place where he met Ruan Jiu for the first time, studying and practicing martial arts day after day.

Ruan Jiu would see him every few days, bring him food and drink, and tell him interesting things.

Ruan Jiu had to hold those things in order to bring them to He Lianzhu in his dreams. There was no way, when Ruan Jiu was sleeping, he could only bring the chicken and duck legs to He Lianzhu with a chicken leg in his left hand and a duck leg in his right hand.

Because of this incident, he was laughed at many times by his family.

They thought he was gluttonous.

Ruan Jiu did not.

After a few years like this, Ruan Jiu and He Lianzhu have always kept in touch in their dreams.

That night, He Lianzhu fell asleep early, and after waiting for a long time, Ruan Jiu did not come over.

It wasn't until he became a little anxious that the white butterfly flew past his eyes lightly.

Ruan Jiu is here.

He Lianzhu stood up, but saw Ruan Jiu stumbling in with a wine jug in his arms.

Before he took two steps, Ruan Jiu fell to the ground holding the flagon.

He Lianzhu stepped forward to help him, his tone slightly angry: "Have you been drinking?"

"Drink a little." Ruan Jiu got up and smiled, "Xiao Mingyuan and the others stole it. They said they wanted to taste a little, so I took a sip, and it turned out..."

Before Ruan Jiu finished speaking, he fell into Helian Zhu's arms.When he fell down, the corner of his lips just brushed Helian Zhu's cheek.

He Lianzhu's face turned red, even worse than when he was drunk.

He tried to froze: "You are not allowed to drink with others!"
