Wanfang

Yi ran to the backyard.When the three of them arrived at Shen Jixi's room, they saw that the good abacus had been broken into eight petals, and the beads of the abacus were rolling all over the floor, and there was no shadow of Shen Jixi on the bed.

"Where is my father? My father was stolen by thieves." Shen Xiaohe was about to run out, but was caught by Shen Xuan.

"Where is Jixi... Who would do this? Who would steal a living person... a living dead person for no reason?" Shen Changyi said.

"In broad daylight, don't scare yourself. Besides, if it's really a thief, it's too considerate." Shen Xuan said and pointed to the quilt on the bed.The quilt had obviously been tidied by someone, and it was "lying" on the bed very upright.

"My father never knows how to make a quilt, it must be someone else's doing." Shen Xiaohe said with red eyes.

Shen Xuan thought for a moment, then said: "Go and get the guys here to ask... Wait..."

"What's the matter?" Shen Changyi looked at Shen Xuan with a puzzled expression, seeing him staring at the screen intently, he hurriedly followed the other's gaze.

On the screen, there are several clothes.

"That's...Jixi's clothes." Shen Changyi hurriedly ran behind the screen as if waking up from a dream.I saw Shen Silent Creek sitting naked in a big wooden barrel with eyes closed, and there was no water in the barrel?

"Father...who did it?" Shen Xiaohe ran forward and pulled the clothes to help Shen Jixi put them on, with an expression on his face that was about to cry.

Shen Xuan glanced at Shen Changyi, and said, "Stay and watch, I'll go find Lao Liu."

Shen Changyi nodded as he said.

When Shen Xuan brought the sixth child over, Shen Changyi and Shen Xiaohe had already helped Shen Jixi get dressed and put them on the bed.

Lao Liu stepped forward to check the pulse of Shen Jixi, and said: "Although I know how to use this blood gu technique, I have never used it on humans. Bringing the dead back to life is an extraordinary thing. It is really hard to predict what the consequences will be."

Shen Changyi knew that Shen Jixi was fine, so he was more relieved, and began to lower his head to pick up his abacus beads.Shen Xiaohe was stunned for a while, then began to lean over to help.

"If today's incident was not done maliciously by others, I'm afraid there will be some changes in Jixi this time..." Shen Xuan said.

Lao Liu said: "We can only wait and see. The most urgent thing is that someone must watch over him day and night. His blood has not yet recovered, and even if he wakes up, he cannot stay awake for a long time. If no one takes care of him, something will inevitably happen. trouble."

"Well, there is no other way." Shen Xuan glanced at the one big and one who were buried in the ground picking up beads, and then at Shen Jixi who was still asleep on the bed, and sighed long.

That night Shen Changyi stayed in the Shenjixi room.It is not that the two have no experience of sleeping together. Shen Jixi often had nightmares when she was a child, and it was common for them to wake up crying in the middle of the night.Faced with such a situation, Shen Xuan, the father, must be helpless and can only work hard for Shen Changyi.

Therefore, during Shen Jixi's long youth, during those countless nights awakened by nightmares, Shen Changyi became Shen Jixi's most reliable and handy comfort.Shen Jixi even developed a habit, if he didn't hide in Shen Changyi's arms in the middle of the night, he wouldn't cry.

Ever since Shen Jixi grew up, Shen Changyi rarely had the chance to get close to each other.After all, they are two big men, so it's not good to cuddle for no reason.Especially after having Shen Xiaohe, Shen Jixi's embrace has long been exclusive to Shen Xiaohe.

Lying next to Shen Jixi that night, Shen Changyi seemed to dream back many years ago, and Shen Jixi next to him became the ten-year-old child again.

At that time, Shen Jixi woke up early in the morning, and would often lie on the side of the bed and look at Shen Changyi, keeping him awake.After Shen Changyi wakes up, Shen Jixi will call "Uncle" in his cute child's voice.

However, this morning, when Shen Changyi woke up, it was not the young Shen Jixi who greeted him.

"What are you looking at? Get up quickly, I'm going to make the quilt. Dad." The well-dressed Shen Jixi sat by the bed and looked at Shen Changyi and said warmly.

"Ah...you're awake...what did you call me? Jixi...are you okay..." Shen Changyi got up in a jerk.Shen Jixi immediately pulled over the quilt, folded the quilt with a series of extremely skilled movements, and then arranged Shen Changyi's shoes so that the other party could put his feet into the shoes as soon as he got off the bed.

"What's the matter, dad? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Are you OK?"

Shen Changyi's face twitched, and he reached out to touch the other person's forehead.

Shen Jixi grabbed the other party's hand and said: "Don't make trouble, Dad, I'm not sick, but I'm a little hungry. At this point, Uncle Six should have cooked the meal, right?"

Shen Changyi withdrew his hand from the opponent's hand, turned around and ran out the door, shouting as he ran, "He calls me Daddy...Ji Yan...he calls me Daddy..."

Shen Xuan came out of the room and supported Shen Changyi who had bumped into his arms firmly. The other party swallowed and spit, and said with high spirits: "Jiyan...Jixi, he woke up...as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning, he will take care of me You call it Daddy. You say it’s strange, I was the one who took care of him back then, but he just called you Daddy. Fortunately, I finally got it back..."

Shen Changyi was dragged by Shen Xuan and said while walking, the state seemed to have picked up a golden bump.The people in the backyard were disturbed by him, and they all came out of the room one after another, with expressions as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

Shen Xiaohe came out of Shen Xuan's room sleepily, and trotted along behind them.When everyone arrived at the door of Shenjixi's room, it happened that the other party came out of the door with a face full of enthusiasm.

"Father, uncle, good morning." Shen Jixi greeted Shen Changyi and Shen Xuan in turn, then looked at Shen Xiaohe and said, "Why don't you call me Daddy? Don't you know me?"

Shen Xiaohe was stunned for a while by his question, then threw himself into his arms and began to cry loudly.Shen Xiaohe intends to clean up all the grievances he has suffered during this period of time, but Shen Xuan doesn't give him a chance.

"Let me take a look at the house first, and let the sixth son also come and have a look." Shen Xuan said and walked into the house first.

Shen Xiaohe was also embarrassed to continue crying, and finally stopped crying under Shen Jixi's gentle comfort.The people in the backyard who were inexplicably quarreled also returned to their respective positions when they saw this.Only Shen Changyi was immersed in the sound of "Father", sitting on the porch and giggling alone, until another "Father" from Shen Jixi called him back to reality.

The result of the joint diagnosis between Shen Xuan and the sixth child is that Shen Jixi has really come back to life, but his current physical condition is still relatively poor and he cannot be active for a long time.I'm afraid it will take another year or so before his body recovers enough to live independently.Before that, he might fall into a coma due to blood deficiency at any time, so he needed someone to accompany him at all times.

As for the change of Shen Jixi's temperament, neither Shen Xuan nor Lao Liu could draw a conclusion. Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with his mind.Except for Shen Xuan's inexplicable change from father to uncle, there is no real problem.

☆, missing

After a few days of recuperation, Shen Jixi had no other problems except that she was a little inflexible due to being bedridden for a long time, and her diet gradually returned to normal.

The dining table at the Shen's Medical Center has not been this lively for a long time.

After several months, everyone was finally able to sit at the same table and have breakfast again. Everyone was very emotional, even the sixth child who usually didn't like to show it was obviously in a good mood.

Only Shen Xuan remained silent.

"Grandpa, aren't you happy that Dad woke up?" Shen Xiaohe asked.

Shen Changyi was the first to say: "Xiaohe, that's uncle, and I will be grandfather from now on, remember?"

"Oh."

Shen Xuan glared at Shen Changyi, and finally couldn't hold back his curiosity, and asked, "Jixi, why don't you call him uncle now?"

Shen Jixi swallowed the food in his mouth, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and said: "How much older is Daddy than you, if you call him Uncle, there is no reason to call him Uncle. You are younger than Daddy, it is reasonable to call him Uncle. "

Shen Xuan looked at the complacent Shen Changyi speechlessly, and could only sink his head and start eating.Seeing this, Shen Jixi picked up the bowls and chopsticks and continued to eat.

The atmosphere was a little weird for a moment, Shen Xiaohe broke the silence at the right time, and said to Shen Xuan: "Grandpa... oh no, uncle, didn't you say before that you would return to Zhongdu when Dad wakes up? Now Dad also..."

"You don't eat, you don't sleep, you don't talk, what did your teacher, grandpa, teach you?" Shen Huan sternly said, and after saying that, he didn't forget to glare at Shen Changyi.

Shen Jixi silently put down the bowls and chopsticks, and said: "Father, Uncle, Sixth Uncle, I'm a little tired, I'm going to rest first, you guys eat slowly."

Except for Shen Xiaohe, everyone looked astonished.Shen Jixi smiled slightly, bowed and left the scene, Shen Xiaohe immediately dropped his chopsticks and followed quickly.

"After I died once, I became more obedient." Shen Changyi looked at Shen Jixi's bowl where there was not a grain of rice left, and said with a smile.

Shen Xuan glanced at him, but didn't speak.On the other hand, Lao Liu, who had been silent at the side, said, "The abacus has been repaired."

Shen Changyi suddenly realized something upon hearing this, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.Since the day Silent Creek woke up, he had never mentioned the abacus.Shen Changyi had convinced himself that the abacus might have just been accidentally dropped by Shen Jixi and broke, but... the abacus was too broken, obviously it took a lot of force to get here.

"I still have a debt to settle...you take your time." After saying that, Shen Changyi got up and left the table, leaving Shen Xuan and Shen Changyi sitting opposite each other.

"It seems that you need to have a good talk, the future will be long, and he must know the truth." The old six said.

Shen Xuan sighed, and said: "Bing Shun is not a dull person. He must have guessed in his heart, but he just doesn't want to think about it. If not, he will definitely not say a word these days. Since he deliberately avoided it, he should I know it in my heart."

The sixth child nodded, without another word, got up and silently put away the bowls and chopsticks.

Late at night, the medical hall was closed, and everyone had already rested, but Shen Changyi was lying on the counter of the medical hall, tirelessly using the abacus that had just been overhauled to calculate the accounts that he was already familiar with.

"I don't know how to hold the candlestick closer." Shen Xuan came out from the back room, and brought the candlestick on the side to Shen Changyi.Shen Changyi glanced at the other party, and simply closed the ledger.

"Is it over?" Shen Xuan asked seriously.

"Why aren't you asleep?" Shen Changyi said.

"You have something on your mind, how can I sleep." Shen Xuan found a chair and sat next to Shen Changyi, and said again: "I know you are worried about Jixi, so why am I not? But things have come to this point, no matter Jixi What has become of the creek, we have no way out. Besides, things haven't gotten worse."

"I know, I've been asking for trouble these days. The day you decided to use blood gu to save him, you said that something unexpected would happen to us. Now that Jixi can come back to life, I should be thankful. I shouldn't worry about gains and losses like this." Shen Changyi said.

Shen Xuan stretched out his right hand, clenched Shen Changyi's left hand, and said, "Don't you want to make another bet with me?"

Shen Changyi felt a little better, and said, "Didn't you say that you would never bet with me again? Why are you throwing yourself into a trap like this today?"

Shen Xuan smiled and said: "The first time I bet with you, I lost my whole life, so naturally I dare not bet with you lightly again."

Shen Changyi thought about the past, couldn't help showing a gentle smile, and said: "Then you today..."

Shen Xuan clenched the opponent's hand and said, "It's a big deal and I'll lose the next life."

"What do you want to bet?" Shen Changyi asked.

"Just bet that Jixi can survive this calamity unharmed, and you have the final say on the chips." Shen Xuan said.

Shen Changyi frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "Then I have to think about it carefully, and I can't miss this opportunity. Put the bargaining chip on hold for now, and I'll tell you when I've made up my mind."

Shen Xuan smiled slightly, and naturally agreed.He had only bet with Shen Changyi once before, and he lost, the bargaining chip was "not to marry a woman in this life".He has never bet against the other party since then.

Shen Xuan and Shen Changyi were always worried that Shen Jixi would do something extraordinary because of the blood gu.On the day when Shen Silent Creek woke up for no reason, they lost their calculations for no reason, and the act of stripping / naked / and going to sleep in a big wooden barrel really made them very worried, for fear that Shen Silent Creek would become a person with a weird temperament .

However, the performance of Shen Jixi for several days in a row made their hearts slowly fall to the ground.However, just as they slowly relaxed their vigilance, Silent Creek caught them by surprise.

That afternoon, when Shen Xuan and Lao Liu were visiting the doctor, and Shen Changyi and Shen Xiaohe were going shopping, Shen Jixi suddenly became furious for some reason, and smashed all the things that could be smashed in his house.The guys didn't know why, and they didn't know how to persuade him, they could only watch him go crazy.

When Shen Xuan and Lao Liu returned to the medical center, even the lobby of the medical center was smashed upside down by Shen Jixi.

In the end, the guys didn't stop him, but the situation in Silent Creek was really weird, and he fell into a coma and woke up for a while.Sometimes when I am sober, I will help to clean up the mess, but I can't help but smash it halfway through.

"You didn't do anything to him, did you?" Shen Xuan asked after listening to the guys' narration.

"Young Master has not recovered yet, we dare not hurt him, we just stopped him a little bit. Later, Young Master fell into a coma and has not woken up. Now there are people guarding him, sir, don't worry." A clerk replied.

"It's hard work for you guys. Let's close the door today, so we can tidy up. I will make a list later and organize the items that need to be repurchased." Shen Xuan ordered.The guy hurriedly responded to the words.

After instructing the staff to make arrangements, Shen Xuan and Lao Liu hurried to Shenjixi's room.The other party has not yet woken up, but even in a coma, there are still pimples on the brows.

"It was fine some time ago, why did it suddenly happen like this? It can be explained if he behaved differently when he first woke up. The blood gu was restless when he just woke up, so that he was emotionally drawn. But now For so long, he has never acted abnormally, but today he suddenly became so irritable, I really can't think of the reason." Shen Xuan said with a worried expression.

The sixth child pondered for a while, and said: "The blood gu will be restless and pull the owner's emotions. One may be that the owner's own emotional fluctuations are too large, which affects it. The other may be... it senses the person who raised it. blood."

Shen Xuan said: "Jixi's mood has been extremely stable recently, it must not be his own fault. But...Zhan Xun has already gone to the Central Capital, why did he come back for no reason?"

"It may not be that he's back, let's wait and see. But we must pay attention to Jixi's actions in the future, and don't let him hurt us." Lao Liu said.

Shen Xuan nodded yes, but still worried.

Shen Changyi took Shen Xiaohe home, and was very worried after hearing what had happened. No matter how comforted Shen Xuan was, he couldn't let go, and insisted on guarding Shen Jixi.Shen Xiaohe was also clamoring to be with him at first, but considering that Xiaohe is still young after all, Shen Xuan didn't want him to worry too much, and was afraid that Shenjixi would go crazy and hurt him, so he had to try to coax him.

Sure enough, something happened that night.

Shen Changyi stayed up in the middle of the night and didn't fall asleep very much. In the second half of the night, he was extremely sleepy and fell asleep. When he woke up, he found that Shen Jixi was not by his side.He hurriedly went out to search, only to find that the back door was ajar and there was a horse missing in the stable.

This matter really frightened Shen Changyi enough, so after he called out Shen Xuan "out of his wits", almost everyone in the medical center was alarmed.

Seeing that Shen Changyi panicked, Shen Xuan had to calm down.Shen Jixi rode a horse, probably wanting to get out of the city, now it is midnight, the city has curfew, and the city gate has already been closed, Shen Jixi can never leave the city.

The end result is only to be discovered by soldiers patrolling the city, or blocked at the gate by soldiers defending the city.Fortunately, it is not a time of war, and the curfew is not strict. Even if it is violated, it is only a reprimand or a small punishment, and there will be no more serious consequences.

But all right, what is Silent Creek going out of town for?

However, there is no time to get to the bottom of it now, the most urgent thing is to find Silent Creek first, so as not to encounter any accidents for him.

Just when the people in the medical center split into several groups and were about to go out to search in a hurry, Shen Jixi came back.It's just that he didn't come back alone, but was brought back immediately by someone.

☆, go home

The unconscious Shen Jixi was brought back immediately, but the person who brought him back was Yu Yun, which surprised Shen Xuan.

When the blood plague broke out, Yu Yun got acquainted with Shen Jixi, and later he was entrusted by Zhan Xun to take care of Shen Jixi.However, Shen Xuan just exchanged pleasantries, thanked the other party, and didn't ask what happened, so Yu Yun naturally didn't say much, sent him back and left.

False alarm.Seeing that Shen Jixi came back safely, everyone dispersed.

Shen Xuan felt uneasy, and sent Shen Changyi to sleep with Shen Xiaohe, while she stayed in the room with Shen Jixi who had not yet woken up.He has never had many opportunities to get along with each other, and he is not a considerate and meticulous person. If things go on like this, he will inevitably have more ties with this son.

Shen Xuan closed the window, cut off the wick, glanced at Shen Jixi on the bed, and said, "Since you're awake, don't pretend to be asleep. The blood gu in your body has been restless lately, so don't go against your temper and It fights so that it doesn't backfire."

Shen Jixi sat up and said, "You knew early on that I was pretending to be asleep."

Shen Xuan said: "Do you still expect me to not see the clues?"

Shen Jixi smiled wryly, and said: "My breath is so unstable, naturally I can't escape my father's ears. I'm afraid even Sixth Uncle has already noticed it, but he didn't expose me."

The corners of Shen Xuan's mouth slightly raised upon hearing this, Shen Jixi just now called him "Father" again.

"Tell me, why did you leave the city in the middle of the night?" Shen Xuan pulled up a chair and sat beside the bed.

"There is no reason, but I feel that there is a force in my body that is difficult to control. I feel irritable for no reason, and I don't know what I am going to do, so I just do it according to my feeling. But when I met Yu Shouwei at the gate of the city, it happened that he Watching the night today... I'll pretend to be sleepwalking..." Shen Jixi said.

Sleepwalking, thank you for thinking it out.

Shen Xuan took a deep breath and said, "After you woke up, you never asked me. However, there are some things we have to talk about after all. If you don't mention it, it will always choke there. That kind of vomiting The feeling of not being able to swallow it is not very good."

Hearing the words, Shen Jixi was stunned for a moment.Regarding the blood plague and the blood gu in his body, he could deduce a general idea.He didn't ask, not because he was curious, but because he already knew the answer.

"Is it Zhan Xun who raised blood Gu for me?" Shen Jixi asked.

"Well. Presumably you can also guess that he has taken your blood, so..."

"How did you convince him? I remember seeing the description of the blood gu in Uncle Six's study. It is not easy to raise blood gu, and the pain is even more unbearable for ordinary people." Shen Jixi said.

A gratified smile appeared on Shen Xuan's face, and he said, "It's what he wanted. I'm quite surprised that you have such a friend who values ​​love and righteousness."

Shen Jixi was silent for a moment, and said with a gloomy expression: "The blood gu in my body is quite disturbed today. Maybe it's because...the person who raised it encountered some kind of danger, so it came to this point."

"Jixi..." Seeing this, Shen Xuan wanted to comfort him, but the other party said: "Don't worry, I know, it's useless to think too much."

Shen Jixi said again: "I have been plagued by the blood plague since I was a child. Although I didn't know what my relationship with it was at the time, I was bound by it in the end. It seemed that I was waiting for the moment when I would return my life every day. .” Shen Jixi smiled wryly, his brows and eyes full of helplessness.

"On weekdays, I am self-willed and do what I want, but after all, I am just like a rootless weed. I live every day and earn a day. I don't want to make progress, I don't learn and have no skills..."

"You're not that bad either." Shen Xuan said.

Shen Jixi smiled slightly and said: "That day I thought, if I can continue to live, I must make up for the previous regrets. I didn't dare to grasp it before, and I will hold it firmly in the future. When I face life and death again in the future , I don’t want to be left alone.”

"Jixi..." Shen Xuan stretched out his hand to firmly hold the other's cool hand, and said: "No matter what happens in the future, I only hope that you are safe. As long as people live, they are not afraid of suffering or enjoying happiness. There are concerns, There are worries and melancholy, everyone lives like this, and you are no exception."

Shen Jixi nodded when she heard the words, and said solemnly: "Father, I will not be willful in the future."

"Okay. Go to bed, it's almost dawn."

Hearing the words, Shen Jixi moved in to make room for Shen Xuan, and the father and son slept on the same couch.

After that day, the blood gu in Shen Silanxi's body became restless from time to time, and Shen Silanxi would also become irritable and abnormal accordingly.Fortunately, everyone gradually mastered some rules and knew how to restrain Shen Silent Creek, so everyone's life was not greatly affected.

Shen Jixi once rode a horse to Nanshan alone, but when he came back, he looked disappointed and said nothing. Seeing that he didn't want to say more, everyone didn't ask him.

The days passed by.

Shen Silent Creek has also become more diligent on weekdays. As he learns more and more from Shen Xuan, he is gradually able to cope with some common illnesses.

Shen Xiaohe has always been uninterested in learning medical skills, but more or less influenced by Shen Siling Creek, it can be regarded as learning some superficiality.

Cold and summer.

Shen Silent Creek's body has recovered in sevens and eighties. If there is no occasional mania, he can be regarded as a healthy person.

Seeing that the end of the new year is approaching, the elders of the Shen family have left Zhongdu for more than two years and have not returned, and now they are planning to return to Zhongdu to accompany Mr. Shen for the new year.

"I'm already healed. Sixth Uncle will take out the blood gu as soon as possible, so I can go back with you." Shen Jixi said.

Shen Xiaohe sat cross-legged on the low couch, and said, "I don't want to stay here anymore. I can't even see a single snowflake in winter, so it's better in China."

Shen Jixi slapped the other party on the head and said: "You were born and raised here since you were a child, but you have lived in Zhongdu for a few years, and you have completely forgotten the hometown where you were born and raised."

"Aren't you the same? You have said more than once that you want to go back to Zhongdu and don't want to stay here. If we hadn't been concerned about your health in the past two years, we would have gone back a long time ago." Shen Xiaohe had a resolute expression on his face.

Shen Xuan knocked on the coffee table in a serious manner, and said: "Okay, you two won't let people live in peace for a while. Of course, Zhongdu will go back, and if you don't go back, the old man will find it. However, the blood gu in Jixi's body still needs to be taken care of." Be careful, if Zhan Xun is in Zhongdu, there might be some troubles."

Shen Jixi was taken aback when he heard the words, and said, "Don't you want to take out the blood gu?"

Lao Liu, who had been silent until now, said, "Did someone tell you to take it out?"

Silent Creek: "...?"

The sixth child: "The thing cannot be taken out easily after putting it in. When you no longer need it, it will naturally disappear without a sound. If you take it out before then, it may hurt your life. It must not be a risk.”

Silent Creek: "..."

Shen Xiaohe: "Then can my father still go to Zhongdu? Isn't Uncle Zhan also in Zhongdu?"

Shen Changyi put down the account book in his hand, and said: "Last year after the incident in Wutang...the Wu family army was dispersed. Some were stationed in the central capital, while others were sent to various provinces and borders. Is Zhan Xun still there? Zhongdu is unknown."

Shen Xuan nodded in agreement, and said: "Besides, to this day, whether or not Zhan Xun will have any influence on this blood gu is unknown. After all, more than two years have passed. Presumably there won't be any major problems. At worst, if something goes wrong, we'll just come back."

"Yeah. Jixi hasn't had mania for a long time recently, presumably the power of the blood gu has become weaker and weaker, maybe it won't take long for the blood gu to disappear." Lao Liu said.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, but there was not much joy on the surface of Shenjixi.

After two years, the connection between that person and himself is only tied to a small blood gu, and now this connection is about to be broken.When he was about to die that day, he hastily expressed his heart, but the other party didn't have any clear response.

Now, even if I see each other again, I don't know what it will be like.If it's not love, it's forgetting.There seems to be no friendship between myself and the other party that is worth thinking about.

Winter goes deeper.

Shen's Medical Center retained the staff who continued to take care of the operation, and the others embarked on the journey back to the central capital together.

The carriage gradually approached Zhongdu, and the weather was getting colder and colder. Everyone had to put on the cotton clothes prepared in advance to resist the cold a little.Seeing the snow again, Shen Xiaohe was very excited, ran outside the carriage and sat side by side with the driver.He wasn't too cold, but Shen Changyi took an extra cloak for him.

As the weather changed, the temper and state of Silent Creek also changed a lot.This point was naturally seen by Lao Liu and Shen Xuan who accompanied him all the way.

"I didn't expect the blood gu to become a lot more peaceful in winter. If we knew this, we wouldn't have to stay in the county for so long." Shen Xuan said.

"I think you guys like to stay in the county town." Lao Liu said.

Shen Xuan sighed, glanced at Shen Changyi who closed his eyes and meditated, and said quietly: "I just want to guard my own small clinic, and be a doctor. But the old man wants me to learn business things." , of course I don't want to."

Shen Jixi's eyes lit up, and he said: "Grandpa wants you to worry about business, so opening a medical clinic is fine. We can open more medical clinics, or at worst, add a few more pharmacies."

"The medical clinics in Zhongdu all belong to the Shen family, and many surrounding towns also have the Shen family's medical clinics and pharmacies. If you want to open a new one, you must go to a place farther away." Shen Xuan road.

"Then let's go to Beijiang." Shen Jixi said bluntly.

Shen Xuan: "...?"

Shen Jixi: "I dreamed of Beijiang, where it snowed, and it was very beautiful." And I also saw the person I wanted to see there.

☆、Yuanxi

New Year's Eve just passed.Zhongdu is at the foot of the emperor, so there is no shortage of excitement to watch.

However, since Shen Jixi made up his mind to open a medical clinic in Beijiang years ago, he has been busy with this matter, and has no energy to go out to join in the fun.Shen Xiaohe didn't like it in every way, but fortunately, Shen Changyi, an uncle, also liked to join in the fun, so the two of them got tired of being together all day long, and they didn't go home until dusk.

Although Mr. Shen has always been strict, he is more in favor of the establishment of a medical clinic by the younger generation.Fortunately, Shen Jixi has been more diligent in recent years, but he has learned a lot of real kung fu from Shen Xuan. It is not impossible for him to start a medical clinic.

The day before departure for Beijiang, everything had been arranged properly, Shen Jixi finally became bored, and sat in the yard alone, holding a book and flipping through it.

Shen Changyi came out of the study room and saw him sitting there alone without a cloak on, his face turned pale from the cold, so he scolded him, "Just after the snow stopped, what kind of book are you sitting here reading? There are so many charcoal stoves in the room." warm."

Shen Jixi put down the book he hadn't read at all, rubbed his hands together and said, "Sixth Uncle said that the colder my body is, the quieter the blood gu will be. Ever since I returned to Zhongdu, the irritability in my body I haven't had any outbursts of anger, it seems that what Sixth Uncle said is true."

"You want to go to Beijiang because Beijiang is cold?" Shen Changyi asked.

"That's right. Besides, didn't daddy say that there are not many places in the north of Central Capital where the Shen family has not set up a medical clinic. Beijiang is the northern defense city of Dayu, and it is also an extremely cold place. This time I will go Beijiang not only benefits the blood gu in my body, but also opens a medical clinic, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds." Shen Jixi said.

Shen Changyi sighed, and said: "Although that's the case, the Beijiang River is far away and the weather is bad... If your father and your grandfather didn't strongly agree, I would definitely not agree to your going."

Shen Jixi couldn't help laughing when she saw that the other party looked a little out of breath.Since years ago, Shen Changyi has always disagreed with the matter of Shen Jixi going to Beijiang. For this reason, he had a cold war with Shen Xuan for several days, but he was "fighting alone" and had no one to support him, so he had to compromise in the end.

"Why didn't Xiaohe be with you today? Hasn't he been clinging to you all day recently?" Shen Jixi changed the subject.

"You are leaving tomorrow, and he went out with Lao Liu early in the morning, saying that he wanted to buy something for you." Shen Xuan said.

Shen Jixi smiled when he heard the words, and said: "He has a heart, but everything that needs to be prepared has already been prepared, and there is nothing missing." Speaking of this, he sighed softly, and said: "Xiaohe has been following all these years. Me, this time I will go to Beijiang and leave him in Zhongdu... I will ask you and dad to take care of him in the future, he has always been mischievous and lawless, I am afraid it will make you suffer."

"If you are naughty, who can compare to you..." When talking about Shen Jixi's "bad deeds" when he was young, both of them were very happy.It's just that parting is imminent, and they are more or less sad, but they are hiding from each other.

The two talked for a long time, but in the end they couldn't get over the severe cold outside, so they went to Shen Jixi's room.But as soon as he entered the door, the room was not very warm, and there was no smell of charcoal fire at all.

"Is there no charcoal fire in your room?" Shen Changyi asked.

"That's right. I don't think it's too cold. I haven't lighted a fire since I came back." Shen Jixi said.

Shen Changyi's face was a little displeased upon hearing this.Shen Jixi grew up in the south since he was a child, how could he not be afraid of the cold, maybe he was afraid that the blood gu would cause restlessness in his body, so he endured the cold all the time and refused to light a charcoal fire for warmth.

No wonder Shen Jixi and Shen Xiaohe slept in separate rooms after returning to Central Capital.At that time, he said that Xiaohe had grown up, and there was a lot of spare room at home, so he decided to clean up a room next door for Xiaohe.Shen Changyi didn't think much about it at the time, but now he suddenly realized.

"It's good if you don't feel cold, just carefully avoid the wind and cold." Shen Changyi said.

Shen Jixi saw that the other party was not looking good, and thought that the other party would nagging and blame him, but he didn't expect that the other party did not expose him, so he couldn't help being a little surprised, and hurriedly said: "Yes. I am a doctor now, so I will naturally take care of you. Be yourself."

Shen Changyi glanced at him and said, "When you go to Beijiang, you can only take care of yourself."

Seeing that Shen Changyi was a little chilly, Shen Jixi took out a cloak and put it on him.Shen Changyi stretched out his hand to take the cloak, and when he met Shen Jixi's ice-cold hand, he couldn't help feeling sour, and the anger that had been suppressed for a long time was about to explode.

Shen Jixi's ability to observe words and expressions is not bad. He immediately rubbed his hands and let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Uncle, there is something I've been wanting to ask you for a long time. Now, I'm leaving too. When is it?"

"What's the question?" Seeing the awkward smile on the other side's face, Shen Changyi couldn't help but feel tense.

"That's... that... grandpa, this year, didn't you urge dad... to get married?" Shen Jixi asked.

"No... Maybe there is, how do I know. Why are you asking this?" Shen Changyi hesitated.

"It's nothing. I still remember that in the county city that year, there was a grandma who was very attentive and wanted to arrange a marriage for my father. At that time, I was in a feverish mood. I was afraid that my father would marry a woman to come in, so I went to find aphasia grass, and wanted to marry him. You bet, let you persuade him not to get married." Shen Jixi looked at the other party's nervous face, sighed pretentiously, and said: "Now that I think about it, I really am a dog and a mouse."

Shen Changyi: "..."

Shen Jixi: "Uncle, you and my father... Actually, I noticed it many years ago, but you didn't say it all the time, and I feel a little embarrassed to ask rashly."

Shen Changyi: "Don't you feel embarrassed to ask now?"

Shen Jixi scratched her head and said, "It's still a little bit."

Shen Changyi sighed, and said: "Your father and I both know that you have already noticed it, so we haven't said it all the time. Besides, I really don't know how to tell you. When you were young, you were afraid that you would not accept it. When you grow up, you don't know where to start."

"That's right. For so many years, you have entered and exited together, eaten and slept together, and there is really no need to say much. I will ask more questions today, but I just want...to tell you that in my heart, I have always regarded you as myself the double
