Spring comes and snows home

The chains of the Longevity Chain in the wooden box were tangled together, and Ruan Yang put them in the palm of his hand to play with them in turn, swinging back and forth, and the jingle was melodious.

Qin Yi turned around.

Ruan Yang smiled slightly, narrowed his eyes, and stretched his hands to the window lattice.Qin Yi seemed to see that Ruan Yangbai's transparent fingertips and arms were covered with a layer of sparkling starlight. The longevity lock that Ruan Yang was playing back and forth in the palm of Ruan Yang was like a flowing galaxy in the dazzling light.

The wind is coming.

The Wangchun Magnolia outside the courtyard gate is swaying on the branches, the white and flawless flower clusters fly up one after another, fluttering in the wind, and when they land, another gust of wind blows up and brushes Ruan Yang's hair, and slowly falls into Qin Yi's hair. fingertip.

From the corner of his eye, Ruan Yang untied a long life lock and stroked the long chain with his fingertips. Qin Yi couldn't leave the corner of his eyes, smiled, rubbed the petals of a magnolia flower, and put it in front of his nose to absorb the fragrance that passed by just now.

"It's been a long time since I took it out, why is there a gap here." After Ruan Yang muttered, remembering that Qin Yi happened to be here, he waved to him and asked, "Brother, take a look for me, has my lock changed again?" blacken?"

Qin Yi put the petals in his arms, stepped up a few steps, and sat next to Ruan Yang, showing an imperceptible smirk.

"Little brother, let me take a look for you." When Qin Yi received the longevity lock, Qin Yi's ears became hot, and he pretended to carelessly rub Ruan Yang's fingertips.

Really want to take a bite.

Qin Yi pursed his lips and smiled slightly. Once he paid off for today's little thoughts, his mood improved, and he said with a smile, "Little brother, your family sells longevity locks. With so many locks, you are afraid that you will live forever."

Ruan Yang hummed heavily, and said with a smile, "Of course, these are all given to me by my father."

Ruan Yang smiled when he mentioned his family, like a ball of soft cotton, Qin Yi stared at him intently.

Ruan Yi didn't notice it at all, his tone was full of pride, and he said with a smile: "He loves me the most. He said that I am a concubine, and he can't give me a mansion or an official position, so he gave me a good husband-in-law."

Good husband.Qin Yi pondered over these words.

Before today, Qin Yi had never heard of Ruan Wuci's concubine son. If he had known that Ruan Yang was such a beautiful woman, he should have asked his father to give him to him when his father was angry that the Ruan family's concubine should match Qin Yan. .

It's a pity that what the concubine picked up was what was left by the eldest son.

Thinking of this, Qin Yi rubbed the longevity lock with his fingertips, and suddenly closed it firmly.

"younger brother?"

"Huh?" Qin Yi recovered.

"Is it... all dark?" Ruan Yang asked cautiously.

The Longevity Lock is indeed blackened, pure silver is no match for pure gold.But Ruan Yang was full of expectations, Qin Yi didn't want him to be disappointed, so he returned it to his palm, and said with a smile: "It's okay. Your father's things are of course the best."

"En!" Ruan Yang Ruxue's face, with a shallow smile, locked the remaining longevity locks into the wooden box.

"Little brother." Qin Yi suddenly became interested in him, so he wanted to ask a few more questions, but after calling out, Ruan Yang leaned over and asked back, "Huh?"

The voiceless sound was pleasant to the ear, falling into Qin Yi's ears like crisp dewdrops from the mountains.Before hearing any response, Ruan Yang habitually tilted his ears towards him. Qin Yi was nervous for a moment, covered his lips and coughed repeatedly.

"Brother...is he suffering from the cold?" Ruan Yang stroked his back and said with a smile, "Brother, we are all a family, so you don't need to see outsiders."

Qin Yi coughed twice again, and said in a serious voice: "Little brother-in-law, I only heard about the first son Ruan Chengjun of the Ruan family, the second son Ruan Chengping, and the third son Ruan Chengqi. I have never heard of you..."

Ruan Yang paused in his gestures, obviously uneasy, and lowered his head, his eyes quickly turned red.

After so many years, even though Ruan Yang is now a blind man who can't see, with nothing but blackness left in his eyes, he still can't help covering his eyes, otherwise the executioner's knife will fall, and his father's blood will splash on his eyelids on, scorched until blind again.

Seven years ago, when the new emperor came to the throne, Ruan Wu resigned as an important minister of the former court. He disagreed with the new emperor in everything, and left in public in the court hall countless times.He grew up in Liushuang City, thousands of miles away, his father died young, and his father would come to visit him occasionally, buy him candy, read stories to him, and rarely mentioned Qingcheng.

The first time I came to Qingcheng, I was brought here by my servants, preparing to see my father for the last time.

My father was imprisoned. Like the other elder brothers, he committed the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and no one was allowed to see him.Ruan Yang heard that the jailer was greedy for money and sold the longevity lock that his father had given him, but the pawnshop owner said that the bastard's longevity lock was worthless at all.

Ruan Yang choked up and begged the pawnshop owner, but the pawnshop owner was unmoved. The proprietress even came out and scolded him as a vixen.

His father once had power in the government and the public, even though he was a concubine, he was loved by thousands of people, how could he have suffered such a crime.He was thrown on the ground with tears in his eyes, he was at a loss looking at the bloody arm in a haze, the wound was burning and painful, and no one even took care of him.

Unexpectedly, he comforted him softly, not afraid, immediately wiped away his tears, and went to another pawn shop without stopping.

Pawn the clothes on your body clean, learn to be smart this time, don't ask the price, the pawnshop owner will give you a few taels of silver, and take a few taels of silver.

Contribute all the money that will come to the jailer, and ask the jailer to let him see his father.The jailer weighed the money bag and said, I'm afraid this is not enough.

Since Ruan Yang thought it was possible, he worked harder and pawned all the valuables. He only had a few strings of long-lived locks that even the pawnshop owner didn't want. The jailer finally told him that tomorrow he can go to the market to see his father.

He did see it.

His father was imprisoned in the car, unkempt, and never opened his eyes.He called his father tearfully, ran after the prison car, fell, got up, ran again, and used his body to block some vegetable leaves for his father.

Ruan Yang tried his best to cover his eyes, but the scenes continued to play out one after another.

The executioner's knife went down sharply, the bones were brittle, the flesh was separated, and the father's head rolled on the ground, scaring away the surrounding crowd.

Several of his brothers were separated one by one.

He cried out in dismay, passed through the crowd running around, hugged his father's head weeping, and dragged his father's body vigorously, wanting them to be put together again, wanting his father to come back to life, not lying on the ground, motionless staring at him, he was afraid.

The father's head hangs above the city gate.

Ruan Yang sat at the gate of the city, looked up at his father with his eyes closed, and after a while, couldn't help wiping away his tears.

After the jailer put down his father, who had been exposed to the sun for seven days, he dragged his body out of the mass grave, and dug a hole while crying.

After all, Ruan Yang couldn't hold back, turned his back and secretly wiped away his tears.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I don't want to say it."

Qin Yi's consciousness was indeed wrong, so he put away his curiosity and said, "Little brother..."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's all over." Ruan Yang comforted himself, "Father chose a good husband and son-in-law for me, Brother Yan treated me very well."

Qin Yi choked, no matter how he went around, Ruan Yang could go back to Qin Yan, and his elder brother probably had no place for Ruan Yang in his heart.

"Brother, tell me, are the banana leaves outside still green?" Ruan Yang thought of the green banana leaves that Qin Yan planted back then, and smiled, "I haven't seen them for many years, please tell me in detail, OK?"

Where are the banana leaves outside.Without thinking about it, Qin Yi honestly replied: "There are no banana leaves outside."

Ruan Yang froze, lowered his eyes, and the watery light was faintly hidden in the corners of his eyes.

He once mentioned to Qin Yan that in the past, his father liked banana leaves the most. If he got married, he wanted to plant two banana leaves in front of the courtyard. It only takes a small space to grow luxuriantly. When they grow to the height of a person, They can also enjoy the coolness under the summer night.

Qin Yi couldn't help Ruan Yang's aggrieved look, and quietly moved closer to him.

"Oh...it's probably because Brother Yan was too busy and forgot to plant it. It's okay." Ruan Yang said this, but there was unreasonable grievance in his heart, and he said softly, "Brother, if we meet again by fate next time, can you give me a gift?" Bro bring two seedlings of banana leaves?"

"If it's inconvenient..."

"Convenience!" Of course, Qin Yi would not let go of the chance to meet again, before he could say anything else, he agreed without changing his expression, found a high-sounding reason, and said with a smile, "It's my brother's duty to serve my brother-in-law." made."

"Thank you, brother." Ruan Yang suddenly remembered something important, and with an ah, he lifted a small piece of clothing from another wooden box, with the water still hanging from the corner of his eyes, and smiled at him, "Did Brother Yan become a father again?" ?”

Qin Yi hummed, the fabric felt soft and old, the handwork was rough, and the crooked threads hadn't been cut off yet, Ruan Yangping brows relaxed, with a smile on his lips, and said: "It's so fast, brother Yan already has two children, I'm a little dad again."

Qin Yi couldn't bear to tell Ruan Yang that such clothes would never appear on the grandson of the Qin family.Taking advantage of his inability to see, Qin Yi quietly put the clothes in front of him for comparison. The material of the clothes was more suitable for my brother-in-law's complexion. Qin Yi couldn't hide his smile, and said with a smile: "My brother-in-law, the meeting ceremony you prepared is really good. many."

"No, they call me little dad anyway, of course I have to prepare some gifts." Ruan Yang won his praise and said proudly, "I have been doing this for a long time, and I wanted to send it out a few years ago. I didn't know the way, but I came back gone."

The servants didn't want to talk to him, Ruan Yang didn't know that Qin Yan was his father until the Qin mansion performed the ceremony of adding a baby and heard music played in the distance.

He sat on the threshold, stroking his flat belly, and really wanted to have a baby.Humming along with the music softly, one couldn't hold back, and shouted a few words Brother Yan, congratulations.

He didn't hear the answer, he shouted again, Brother Yan, Brother Yan, I am not as stingy as I was a few years ago, I would be unhappy to hear that you married a wife, I am so happy, Brother Yan, bring your son here when you have time look at me.

Until now, Ruan Yang didn't know whether Qin Yan heard it or not.

Thinking about whether someone would bring red eggs the next day, he hurriedly prepared some gifts for his son.

He cut out this little piece of clothing for several days, and wanted to give it to his son as a meeting gift, but he didn't expect that the cobblestone leading to the main mansion was diverted. Going around and touching the mark I just made.

Helpless, after a lot of tossing and fumbling, I returned to the courtyard. This small piece of clothing was not sent out, so it was also put into the wooden box, and nothing happened.Qin Yi came over today and just asked him to take it out.

"That's my son too. Although I've never seen him before, just take it as a gift from me. Don't dislike him." Ruan Yang gestured with both hands and said with a smile, "I don't know how old he is, is he this big?"

Qin Yi's complexion changed suddenly, he quickly pinched Ruan Yang's palm, and stretched it out in front of him, his eyes subconsciously focused on Ruan Yang's fingertips, if he didn't look carefully, no one would notice the tiny needle holes at the front of the nails.

Ruan Yang's immature face was full of doubts, Qin Yi suddenly felt a little depressed, staring at the dense white spots on his fingertips and remained silent.

Ruan Yang didn't know what happened, but his cheeks were covered with powder, and he said shyly, "I don't have any other fabric here. I cut it out of the most comfortable piece of clothing I have. It shouldn't hurt his skin."

It was only then that Qin Yi became more conscious, let go of his hand angrily, put on a smiling face, and asked, "Little brother, do you have any extra fabric?"

Ruan Yang was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qin Yi said with a shallow smile: "I came here empty-handed today. It's unreasonable. If there is too much fabric, my brother really wants to make a robe for you as a gift from my brother."
