Zhao Zenian turned his head away: "You have a good reason, what else can I say."

The atmosphere was embarrassing, Feng Yueyi only said: "Mr. Zhao, please tell Xu Yuan for me, just say that I have a lot of time recently, so let him come and play with me whenever he has nothing to do."

Zhao Zenian watched him go away, feeling a little empty in his heart, how unfortunate Xu Yuan is, how lucky he is to have such relatives, to have such a friend who he has known for a short time but who cares about him so much!

It's not like him, when he has nothing to do, he doesn't know where to go for entertainment except Guanjiang Tower.

Back at the Xu Mansion, Xu Yuan pulled him to tell him about accidentally injuring Xu Wenxuan during the sword competition, and his reaction was flat: "Don't be so nervous, just be more careful in the future."

Xu Yuan murmured: "I really didn't expect Aunt Ying to be such a good person."

Zhao Zenian looked at him with a smile: "Is it very similar to your mother?"

Xu Yuan nodded, tears welling up in his eyes: "I used to have resentment, but I spent all my money on this trip, had no place to live, couldn't get enough to eat, and was always cast aside by others..."

"At this time, I really miss my mother, and I really want her to touch my head and tell me not to be afraid! Although Aunt Ying and my mother are two people, I always feel a warmth from her. .”

If it wasn't for the inappropriate timing, Zhao Zenian really wanted to yell at him: You idiot, have you ever heard the saying "Knowing people, knowing their faces but not their hearts"!

Xu Yuan said sincerely, then turned his head and asked, "Zenian, what do you think?"

Zhao Zenian played with the jade pendant hanging on his belt: "Let me tell you, when I was walking outside, I met a lot of rich families, basically three wives and four concubines, several women together, every day Several plays. It’s really the first time I’ve seen someone like Aunt Ying, she’s very friendly to others, and she’s very reasonable about you.”

Xu Yuan nodded his head vigorously, if it wasn't for Aunt Ying's words of persuasion, his father might not have agreed to him to stay.He lowered his head dejectedly, picking his nails like a girl: "But I hurt Wenxuan today."

Zhao Zenian ignored his feminine behavior, and comforted him: "You didn't do it on purpose, don't blame yourself. If you really can't let go, you can treat him twice as well in the future. Isn't it over when you make up for it?"

Xu Yuan's eyes lit up: "Yes, you are right!"

After lunch, before the two of them had any plans for the next step, a voice came from the yard, it was Xu Wenxuan: "Has my elder brother taken a nap?"

A girl replied with a crisp voice: "Return to the third young master, no."

Xu Yuan walked out quickly: "Wenxuan!"

Under the sunshine, Xu Wenxuan showed a bright smile: "Brother, I can't sleep at noon, so I came to look for you."

"Just right, Ze Nian and I don't plan to take a nap either."

"That's great." Xu Wenxuan suggested: "Why don't we go to the street!"

Xu Yuan turned his head and cast a questioning look, Zhao Zenian hurriedly nodded in agreement.

The sun was shining on the street at noon and the temperature was high. Except for a few hawkers, everyone else hid in the house to cool off. After walking for a while, the three of them were dripping with sweat and their clothes were half wet.

Xu Yuan was worried about his younger brother's injury: "Wen Xuan, does the wound still hurt?"

"It won't hurt if you don't touch it. Don't worry, brother. I'm very careful."

Not long after, Xu Wenxuan had an idea: "I suddenly thought of a good place. I haven't been there for a long time. It's very hot now, so let's go there."

Seeing him full of interest, Xu Yuan smiled: "Listen to you..."

Zhao Zenian remembered Feng Yueyi's entrustment in the morning, and said with a smile: "It's just right, call someone by the way."

So, the three of them went to Yunfeng Inn first, and pulled Feng Yueyi out.

The place Xu Wenxuan was talking about was above the painting boats. A wide river passed by outside Danxi Town, and a dozen or so painting boats were parked side by side on the shore filled with white sand.

Xu Wenxuan chose one of the boats without any hesitation. Only a few people on the boat knew about it. No wonder he knew the way well. It turned out that he knew the owner of the boat, and all the women on the boat were his confidante.

The painting boat is elegantly decorated, the bow and the stern are connected, and there is a large window on the left and right. The wind blows from the river to reach here, and the cabin is extremely cool.

In the cabin, a round table was placed near the bow, and a translucent silk embroidered screen was placed near the stern. The women on board sat in front of the screen, playing silk and bamboo in their hands to entertain the guests.

Xu Wenxuan opened his mouth to introduce: "Let me introduce, this is my elder brother Xu Yuan, my elder brother's friends Mr. Zhao and Mr. Feng!"

The woman playing the piano was the leader, wearing a green shirt, she smiled and said, "Second young master, when did you have an extra brother?"

She used a joking tone, and Xu Wenxuan responded with a smile, but her tone was undeniably serious: "Lu Luo, you will have to call me Third Young Master from now on."

Luluo and the others were stunned for a moment, and then they looked at Xu Yuan carefully.

Xu Yuan was extremely embarrassed by the look, Xu Wenxuan saw it, then generously embraced him by the shoulders, and said: "Xu Yuan, my dear brother, the real young master of our Xu family!"

After the serious introduction, he began to smile: "I said earlier that you are my best friends and the people I trust the most. Look, my eldest brother just came back, so I brought him here. Let me tell you first." You know each other!"

His appearance clearly hoped that Luluo and the others would praise him.

Luluo seemed to be used to it, but she didn't agree with him, and deliberately put on a contemptuous expression.

Xu Wenxuan didn't care, instead he greeted Xu Yuan, Zhao Zenian, and Feng Yueyi to sit down, and ordered the girls to serve tea and snacks.

Lu Luo and the others will look at each other, Danxi Town is not big, but it is not small. I heard that the Xu family has a young master who grew up outside. He just came back to Xu's mansion. Hear it as gossip, but rarely take it seriously.

Today Xu Wenxuan brought it in person, which proved the rumors to be true, so the girls restrained a lot, spoke decently, behaved well, and played the music seriously for the four of them to listen to and rest.

Xu Yuan said bluntly that this was the first time he had been on a boat since he grew up, and this boat was different from what he had seen before, it was not a black awning made of woven straw mats or cowhide.

The place of the painting boat is spacious and beautiful. There is a huge picture of a beautiful woman painted on the wall of the boat. The hanging bead curtains and gauze curtains sway with the wind, and a faint fragrance fills the whole senses.

In the quiet tune, Xu Yuan soon became drowsy and fell asleep on the table first.

Feng Yueyi narrowed his eyes, Zhao Zenian sat upright and carried the music of silk and bamboo, the girls had to pick up guests in the building at night, and they got off the boat and left soon, except for the one named Luluo.

Xu Wenxuan and Luluo went to the stern of the boat together, Zhao Zenian felt something, lifted the curtain and went to the bow of the boat, watching people fishing while blowing the wind.

As the sun slanted towards the west, the orange light shrouded everything. Some of the boatmen were cooking on the deck, and some of them were coming and going doing chores. Everyone seemed so busy.

Zhao Zenian put his hands on the railing and looked into the distance, feeling very bored.

"Zenian." Xu Yuan came from behind, and he knew he had just woken up when he heard the voice: "The music played by Luluo and the others is so beautiful, I actually fell asleep."

Zhao Zenian turned his head to look at him, continued to look into the distance, and said, "You really can't speak. If it sounds good, it will stir people's hearts, and you will be ten times more energetic to listen to it, instead of falling asleep without pain. .”

Xu Yuan blushed, and changed the subject uncomfortably: "Where is Mr. Feng, are you leaving?"

As soon as he finished asking, Feng Yueyi appeared out of nowhere and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "I'm behind you!"

The smile was so bright that Zhao Zenian couldn't help but look at it twice.

Xu Yuan smirked twice, and asked: "Mr. Feng, you told me that you are walking around the rivers and lakes, and you count wherever you go, but that day I invited you to eat together, but you looked in a hurry. Could it be that you have encountered some trouble? "

The smile on Feng Yueyi's face slowly faded.

Xu Yuan hastily explained: "Young Master Feng, I have no other intentions! It's just that I know my father now, and my father has some status in this Danxi Town. If you need any help, please feel free to ask me. As long as I If you can help, you will never refuse!"

Feng Yueyi smiled: "I naturally know that you are pure and kind. To be honest, you came to Danxi Town to find relatives, and I walked around to find people."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan immediately said: "Who are you looking for, maybe I can help you find someone together."

Feng Yueyi was obviously apprehensive, he pursed his lips tightly and did not speak.

Zhao Zenian thought to himself, is it because I was there that he refused to speak?

Xu Yuan pressed again, Feng Yueyi shook his head, his eyes a little disappointed: "It's easier for you to find relatives, at least you know your father's name and where he lives, and the person I'm looking for, her name is now What's the name, where does it live, but I don't know at all."

"Ah?" Xu Yuan was stunned: "I don't know anything, so how do you find it?"

"I have her portrait. As long as she doesn't change her face, I will recognize her when I see her."

Xu Yuan frowned: "But there are tens of thousands of people in this world, when are you going to find them?"

Feng Yueyi smiled wryly, and said, "I know this is looking for a needle in a haystack. I'm afraid it will be in vain if I neglect it for several years, but I still have to persevere."

After hearing this, Xu Yuan was filled with admiration: "Since that's the case, I sincerely wish you all wishes come true!"

Feng Yueyi thanked him, Xu Yuan looked around and was very surprised: "Where is Wenxuan, has he left?"

Zhao Zenian pointed to the back: "How is it possible, you are his brother, how could he leave you alone? It must be at the stern of the boat, but I advise you not to go there."

Xu Yuan was puzzled: "Why don't you go there?"

Zhao Zenian smiled and said nothing, Feng Yueyi seemed to know what was going on, he looked at the water and said nothing.

Seeing that they were silent, Xu Yuan couldn't help worrying that his brother was in danger, so he hesitated for a moment, then went back into the cabin, bypassed the gauze curtain and the screen to go to the stern.

The moment he pushed the door open, he regretted it.

His younger brothers Xu Wenxuan and Luluo were standing at the stern of the boat, embracing each other, admiring the beautiful sunset together, when they heard the sound of the door opening, they turned around.
