[Rat cat] Jade Xu Luo Qianqiu

dining room.

During the banquet, because it was mourning, there were some vegetarian dishes on the table.Zhan Rihui's face was gloomy, obviously very dissatisfied.But Zhan Riqing didn't seem to see Zhan Rihui's ugly face, and talked to Bai Yutang on his own.

He got up and filled a cup of tea for himself and Bai Yutang, and said with a smile, "I don't know where Mr. Bai is from? How did he meet my family? But it's rare to see the third brother bring friends home."

"I'm in Baiyutang, named Zeyan, from Jinhua."

"Jinhua Bai Family?" Zhan Riqing was surprised when he heard the words, "Are you the second son of the Bai Family?"

"Yes." Bai Yutang smiled, and sipped the tea in his cup.

"Brother Ling is alright?"

"My brother is in good health, thank you for your concern."

When Zhan Rihui saw them talking to each other, and seeing Zhan Zhao's downcast eyes wondering what he was thinking, he became annoyed for a while, and said, "Zhan Zhao, I heard that Mr. Bai... ...Is it living in your room?"

"Eh? Yes, second brother."

"Zhan Zhao, my Zhan Mansion is not so shabby that I can't even clean up a guest room, is it?" He asked in a tone-deaf manner, and glanced at Zhan Riqing secretly.Sure enough, the eldest brother's brows had already begun to wrinkle.

"Third brother, this is... what's going on?"

"Uh, big brother, Yutang and I are close friends, and it's common to fall asleep when we reach our feet, so we didn't ask the servants to clean up the room."

"Hey, Yutang? I said, Zhan Zhao, why are you shouting so affectionately? It's not embarrassing for two big men to stick together!" Zhan Rihui became more and more complacent as he talked, and he didn't notice that Zhan Riqing was getting more and more intimate. Dark complexion.

"Second brother, that's enough!"

After being glared at by Zhan Riqing, Zhan Rihui reluctantly shut up, "Cut, this is a matter, why don't people talk about it?"

Shocked by Zhan Rihui, Zhan Riqing then turned his head and apologized to Bai Yutang with a smile: "I'm not strict with my younger brother, I made Mr. Bai laugh."

"It's okay, Mr. Zhan is very polite."

"Speaking of which, third brother, how long will you stay home this time?"

"When the preparations for the vacation are over, I will set off to return to Kaifeng. Do you have any orders from the eldest brother?"

"...If that's the case, then you put this thing away." Zhan Riqing took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Zhan Zhao, "It's the title deed of the business and house that should be in your name."

"!!!" Zhan Zhao and Zhan Rihui were startled at the same time, before Zhan Zhao could react, Zhan Rihui grabbed the envelope.

"Second brother! What are you doing?!"

"Brother, father's things can only be attributed to the children of my Zhan family."

"Nonsense! Isn't the third brother a child of the Zhan family?! Return the envelope to the third brother!"

"Hmph! Of course he's not a child of the Zhan family! He's just a bastard that my father picked up outside!"

As soon as this remark came out, it was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves.

"Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about! How can you allow you to mess around!" Zhan Riqing was furious, as if he didn't expect that his younger brother, who usually looks like a playboy, would do such things—in front of outsiders!

Zhan Zhao's face was also pale, full of disbelief.

"Second, second brother... what are you talking about?"

Bai Yutang quietly squeezed Zhan Zhao's hand under the table, signaling him not to panic, and then stared at Zhan Rihui with an unfriendly expression.

You scared my cat... Let's see how Master Wu will deal with you in a while!

"Second brother, you have disliked the third brother since you were young, and even took his housemate as your own after the third brother left home, these elder brothers will not talk about you. But now, can you mess around with me? ?!" The more Zhan Riqing spoke, the more excited he became, and finally he slapped the table in a rage.

"Brother, I'm not messing around! I heard my father say this with my own ears. Zhan Zhong also knows about it, doesn't he, Uncle Zhong?" If you say "no" in half, you will do something to him.

"Second Young Master, this..."

"...Uncle Zhong, to be honest, I... also want to know." Zhan Zhao clenched his fists, trying to make his voice sound more stable.

"..." Zhan Zhong looked at the pale Zhan Zhao below, lowered his head, and said in silence for a while, "...Third Young Master, you... are indeed not the old master's biological son. You were the old master who left the door 21 years ago. Bring it back."

Zhan Zhong's words were like throwing a stone into a calm lake, stirring up layers of waves.

Zhan Zhao's face became even paler, Zhan Riqing's face was shocked, and Zhan Rihui's face was full of complacency and joy.

"How is it? Big brother, does Zhan Zhao still have the right to inherit these things?"

"..."

"Second brother..."

"Who is your second brother?! It's close! Since you are not from our Zhan family, pack up your things and get out! Don't be shameless here!"

"!!!" Zhan Zhao's hands trembled uncontrollably, the color of his lips faded, he couldn't stop trembling, he was speechless for a while.

"Second brother, how did you talk?!" Zhan Riqing just came back to his senses, when he heard Zhan Rihui's words, he couldn't help scolding.

"Oh, I, Bai Yutang, have seen how ruthless your Zhan family is. Mao'er, come with me!" After finishing speaking, he grabbed Zhan Zhao's hand and wanted to pull him out of the hall.

"Mr. Bai, stay!" Zhan Riqing yelled, and quickly walked around the table to Zhan Zhao, "Third brother... no... Brother Zhao, you should stay here first. This matter... elder brother will take care of it." .”

Zhan Zhao pursed his lips and remained silent, Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao behind him, with a face full of mockery, and said sarcastically, "Oh? I'm sorry, I'm afraid I, Bai Wuye and Mao'er, can't compete with this Zhan family!"

"...Young Master Bai, let's stay here. Today is my father's first son, even though Zhaodi is not my father's biological son, but the love is still there. The first seven days have not yet passed, what does it look like to leave like this, in vain Just provoking gossip." Zhan Riqing observed Bai Yutang's expression while talking.

Suddenly, with a glance out of the corner of his eye, he saw Zhan Rihui's face full of resentment and was about to speak, turned his head and stared at him, and angrily said: "Second brother, go back to the room and think about it! Isn't there enough trouble today? !"

"Hmph! Brother, you know how to protect him! Who is your real brother!" After finishing speaking, Zhan Rihui got up and left the table. Before leaving, he kicked the stool on the ground. Zhao vented his anger.

Bai Yutang gritted his teeth secretly, Zhan Rihui, wait for Fifth Master!

After Zhan Rihui left angrily, Zhan Riqing turned his head and looked directly at Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang snorted coldly, and took Zhan Zhao's hand as if walking outside.Unexpectedly, Zhan Zhao was stuck on the ground like a wooden stake, unable to move at all.Can't help wondering: "Cat, what's the matter?"

Zhan Zhao looked up at Bai Yutang, then lowered his head again, hiding in the shadows, making it difficult to see his expression.

"... Yutang, I... want to stay."

"..."

It's "want" not "want"... This stubborn cat...

In this way, Fifth Master could only reluctantly stay.Fifth Master is really worried about leaving you here alone in your current state.

Zhan Zhao's room.

Bai Yutang pushed Zhan Zhao on the chair by the table, and was about to speak, when there was a rustling sound on the bed.The two looked at each other, then turned their heads to look at the bed together.I saw a gray round head protruding from the quilt, looking left and right.

Seeing this, Bai Yutang's face darkened, and he shouted: "Little Yao Huai, what are you doing on the cat's bed!"

"Meow~" Huai Xiaoyao looked around, and jumped into Zhan Zhao's arms with a "swish", "Meow~ This mansion lives with this powerful-looking Taoist priest, only here is safe meow~"

Huai Xiaoyao arched in Zhan Zhao's arms, changed into a comfortable position, and said, "Meow~ Zhan Zhao, don't go out these days, lest you run into that Taoist priest!"

Even though Zhan Zhao had just experienced such a big change, he couldn't help laughing when Huai Xiaoyao interrupted him, "Zhan is not a demon, why should he be afraid of that Taoist priest?"

"Meow~ Anyway, just don't go out anyway, I won't hurt you meow~" Huai Xiaoyao squinted her mouth and turned her head to one side.

Meow~ I forgot, Zhan Zhao doesn't know he is a demon yet...

Bai Yutang saw Huai Xiaoyao's way of arching left and right in Zhan Zhao's arms, which was not pleasing to the eye, and got angry for a while, and was about to lift Huai Xiaoyao away, but when he saw Zhan Zhao's smiling face, he could only sigh secretly , leave it at that.

Hmph, for the sake of making the cat happy, Lord Wu won't argue with you for now!

However, when he turned his head and saw that Huai Xiaoyao turned his head into a messy quilt, he couldn't help grinding his teeth, glaring at Huai Xiaoyao fiercely and said: "You can stay in the cat's room, but you have to dare Climb up on the cat's bed again, look at Fifth Master, I won't skin you!"

Zhan Zhao watched it interestingly, but also felt a little helpless, "Yutang, why do you bother with Huai Xiaoyao?"

Bai Yutang snorted coldly, and didn't answer Zhan Zhao's words, but just walked up to Zhan Zhao, twisted a strand of hair hanging on his cheek behind his ear, stretched out his hand to scratch his nose, and said with a smile: "You The cat must not have eaten much just now, and Master Wu will get you something to eat first." After saying this, he opened the window and jumped out.

Seeing this, Zhan Zhao shook his head helplessly, "It really is a mouse habit."

Huai Xiaoyao rolled her eyes in Zhan Zhao's arms, meow~ This Bai Yutang really learned Sichuan Opera, and he can change his face faster than flipping through a book!He is fierce to me as if I owe him 10,000+ taels of silver, but he is so gentle to Zhan Zhao that water drips out.Hum ~ eccentric!

Bai Yutang went to the kitchen, picked out a few side dishes that Zhan Zhao usually ate, and returned by the same route.

As soon as he turned through the window, he saw Huai Xiaoyao trying to twist his chubby body to make Zhan Zhao happy.Looking at the slight smile on Zhan Zhao's sad face, he couldn't help softening the corners of his eyes and brows.

This Huai Yao is not a completely useless monster, at least... it can still make cats happy, can't it?

Hearing the sound, Zhan Zhao turned around and saw a big basket of vegetables in Bai Yutang's hand, couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.

"Yutang, I can't eat so much by myself..."

Bai Yutang stared, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Stupid cat, Grandpa Bai, I'm not full yet!"

Zhan Zhao smiled helplessly, put Huai Xiaoyao on the ground, and walked over to help Bai Yutang arrange chopsticks.

"Mao'er, this fish is delicious, you should eat more. Seeing how skinny you are, others would think Master Bao won't give you food! You have to make up for it." Bai Yutang stroked the belly of the fish with his chopsticks a few times. , took a piece of fish and put it in Xi'an Zhao's bowl.

Zhan Zhao picked it up and ate slowly, his lowered eyebrows showed that the master was in a trance.

When Bai Yutang saw it, his heart ached even more, and he said viciously in his heart again and again: Zhan Rihui, you have caused the cat to be like this, Fifth Master, if I don't beat you until you cry, I will write the name upside down!

However, no one expected that Bai Yutang would stab several blood holes in Zhan Rihui's body in the end, causing him to lie on the bed for the rest of his life, unable to take care of himself.And this incident also became an insurmountable gap between Zhan Zhao and Zhan's family.

After Zhan Zhao finished eating, Bai Yutang packed up the bowls and chopsticks and threw them back into the kitchen, then hurried back to "monitor" Zhan Zhao for a rest.

Burn the calming incense given by Zhong Suchen in the incense burner, and when the room is filled with the scent of peace and tranquility, Zhan Zhao has already fallen asleep.

Seeing Zhan Zhao's peaceful sleeping face, Bai Yutang breathed a sigh of relief.

After a little grooming and tidying up, he stretched out his hand to rub Zhang Zhanzhao's frown, and a gentle emotion that he couldn't explain clearly rose in his heart.

With a secret sigh, it's just that things are not going well with the cat recently, Fifth Master, I need to take care of the cat so that nothing happens to the cat.

With his arms around Zhan Zhao's waist, he stretched out his hand to pull the brocade quilt, covered his head with a big quilt, and woke up at dawn.
