Congrats to the boss and his brother

Chi Jingyao's body recovered quickly, and by the day of Dr. Cheng's death, he was almost healed.

Early this morning, Pei Ye had harnessed the carriage, laid thick cushions in the carriage, and placed two blankets.

Because it was Doctor Cheng's death day, Ding Xiaowan and Pei Yuan also planned to go with him.

In the end, everyone gathered together and brought along Pei Ning and the boss.

Rong Niang was afraid that they would be cold on the road, so she specially bought two hand stoves, one for Chi Jingyao and one for Ding Xiaowan.

"If you stay for a few days, remember to come back early." Rong Niang said to Chi Jingyao, "In case it snows again, the road will be difficult."

"Don't worry, mother, we will come back after staying for two days at most." Chi Jingyao said hurriedly.

Rong Niang was relieved after hearing this, and instructed Pei Yuan and Ding Xiaowan again.

Pei Ye stood aside, but Rong Niang ignored him, apparently still in a fight.

"Second brother!" After the carriage left the village, Chi Jingyao approached Pei Ye and asked, "Are you making your mother angry? Why hasn't she paid any attention to you these two days?"

Pei Ye turned his head and glanced at him while driving the car, and said, "Don't come out, just stay in the car."

"I want to talk with you." Chi Jingyao closed his cloak and said, "The sun is good and it's not cold at the moment."

Seeing this, Pei Ye parked the carriage on the side of the road, went to find a blanket in the car, and wrapped Chi Jingyao up.

Not only that, but he put the hood on the opponent's cloak on Chi Jingyao's head, so he was relieved.

"Uncle, I also want to sit outside." Pei Ning shouted in the carriage.

Chi Jingyao wanted to say no, but he thought that Pei Ning was young and had to go out with great difficulty, so he must be very curious, so he agreed.

So he let Pei Ning hide in his arms, and wrapped the little guy up with a blanket.

All the way to the county seat, they went to buy some incense candles and paper money, and then went to Zhuangzi.

After arriving at Zhuangzili, everyone left the carriage behind and walked to Dr. Cheng's tomb.

Because they arrived late, many sacrifices had already been placed in front of Dr. Cheng's tomb, as well as a lot of burnt paper ashes and incense ashes.

Although Dr. Cheng has passed away for several years, every year on the anniversary of his death or on such days as Qingming Festival and Double Ninth Festival, people will come to worship him.Many of them are his disciples, and there are also many patients he has cured.

Pei Yuan led everyone to worship together.

He guessed that Chi Jingyao should have something to say to Dr. Cheng, so he took Ding Xiaowan and Pei Ning back to Zhuangzi first.

"Second brother..." Chi Jingyao glanced at Pei Ye, hesitant to speak.

"I'll wait for you at the front, and I won't go far." Pei Ye helped him tidy up his cloak, and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. Dr. Cheng will definitely be able to hear you in heaven."

After he finished speaking, he lightly shook Chi Jingyao's hand before walking away quickly.

But he didn't go far away, he just found a young man who couldn't hear the boy's voice clearly but stood at a distance where he could see the other party clearly.

Chi Jingyao took a look at Pei Ye, then knelt down and kowtowed to Dr. Cheng's tombstone.

"Master... I'm back." As soon as the young man opened his mouth, his eyes turned red.

He intermittently told everything about himself in the border town.

"...Later the emperor allowed me to enter Beijing, and now those people in the Imperial Hospital also know that we made those pills together." Chi Jingyao said: "I also met the emperor, he has a lot of eyes and likes to be a matchmaker ..."

He didn't know what he thought of, and couldn't help laughing through tears.

After a while, he said again: "The emperor probably wants to live forever, but unfortunately we can't do anything about it. If there is a way, your old man won't..."

Chi Jingyao felt a little sad when he said this, and couldn't help crying for a while.

"By the way, Master, the old Uncle Wu who helped me manage the medicine field was also your patient in the past." Chi Jingyao said: "You saved him back then, and now he is helping me... Wait for our pills in the future It has become popular in Dayu, and it can help more people..."

"It would be great if you were still alive." Chi Jingyao sniffed, and said again: "There is one more thing I want to tell you. The disciple got married. I think Brother Zhang should have told you when he came back, right?"

When he said this, he turned his head and glanced at Pei Ye, and then said: "The person who married me is my second brother, and you have seen it."

"He treated me very well, you don't have to worry about me anymore in the future." After Chi Jingyao said, he kowtowed to Dr. Cheng's tombstone again.

On the way back, Chi Jingyao was sad for a while.

Pei Ye held his hand without saying a word.

But such company made Chi Jingyao's mood gradually calm down a lot.

The people in Zhuangzi were very happy to see Chi Jingyao and Pei Ye, and the guys even arranged a table for this rare reunion.

Not only Chi Jingyao came back today, but also senior brothers Zhang and Liang.

Chi Jingyao hadn't seen Senior Brother Liang since he came back from the southern border last year, and he was very happy to see him today.

"Have all the Gu on those friends of yours been resolved?" Brother Liang asked.

"It's all solved, thank you brother for your help." Chi Jingyao said, he wanted to write back to the other party to let him know, but brother Liang said in the letter that he was going to travel again and he was not allowed to reply, so he didn't reply.

Earlier, Chi Jingyao wrote several letters to Senior Brother Liang, asking him to find out the solution to the Gu worms on those small workers. Later, Senior Brother Liang wrote back to him, explaining several ways to get rid of Gu in detail in the letter, and it really worked. played a role.

"When the weather gets warmer next spring, I'm planning to go to the border town, and then I'll also go to see your medicine field." Senior Brother Liang said with a smile.

"Okay, at that time, I will bring my brother with me, and I will go back to the border town to discuss the future with Old Uncle Wu." Chi Jingyao said hurriedly.

Now that Zhuangzi and the medicine field in the border town have been officially rewarded by the emperor, and with the documents bestowed by the emperor, it will be much more convenient for them to do anything they want to do.

On that day, Chi Jingyao was very happy to get together with his seniors, and it was rare for him to have a few drinks.

Seeing that he was happy, Pei Ye didn't say much, and took Pei Ning and the boss to Yaoquan for a walk.

In the forest near Yaoquan, several monkey dens have been added in recent years.

The group of monkeys on the nearby mountain seemed to be domesticated in Zhuangzi.

However, the monkeys are wild, and usually only come to the village during the winter, and most of them stay on the mountain in other seasons.

"Squeak!" There was a monkey soaking in the medicine spring, and when it saw Pei Ye approaching, it immediately wanted to leave vigilantly.

But it stared at Pei Ye for a while, then at the big guy beside Pei Ye, and slowly recognized Pei Ye.

"Brother Monkey?" Pei Ye tried to call it.

"Squeak!" Brother Hou came out of the pool upon hearing this, and walked around Pei Ye a few times, not sure if he was confirming his identity or observing his changes.

Pei Ye took out the cloth bag prepared in advance, which contained some peanuts and chestnuts.

Seeing this, Pei Ning took out the things from the bag and put them on the ground one by one.

Seeing this, Monkey went up to pick up a few peanuts.

Seeing this, the nearby monkeys also rushed over one by one, picked up a few peanuts and chestnuts, and took them away.

"Second Uncle..." Seeing so many monkeys for the first time, Pei Ning asked excitedly, "Are these all yours and Uncle's?"

"No." Pei Ye reached out and touched the boss's head, and said, "It's the only one."

As he spoke, he pointed to Brother Monkey who was sitting next to him cracking peanuts and said, "This is Brother Monkey, and he is your uncle's monkey friend."

"Oh." Pei Ning nodded, took the initiative to grab another handful of peanuts, and put them next to Brother Monkey.

On that day, Pei Ye took Pei Ning and the boss to play by the medicine spring all afternoon.

It was not until dusk that he sent the person back to Pei Yuan.

Chi Jingyao drank some wine with his senior brother and the guys at noon, slept for half a day in the afternoon, and just woke up now.

Pei Ye reached out and touched his forehead, and was relieved to see that he had no fever anymore.

"Aren't you drunk?" Pei Ye asked.

"Drink less." Chi Jingyao said with a smile: "Brothers don't let me drink too much."

"Are you hungry?" Pei Ye asked.

"A little bit." Chi Jingyao said.

Seeing his laziness, Pei Ye asked him to wait in the room, and went to get some food by himself.

The two ate something in the small courtyard, and it was getting dark.

"Still sleepy?" Pei Ye asked.

"It's not very sleepy, second brother, let's go for a walk." Chi Jingyao said.

Pei Ye thought for a while, arranged for the boss to sleep first, and then took Chi Jingyao out of the courtyard.

It was cold outside in winter, so Pei Ye didn't dare to take him wandering around, but took someone to Yaoquan.

"During the months when I was in the border town and my brain hurt from the cold, I dreamed of going back here." Chi Jingyao said.

"If you like it, you can stay for a few more days before going back," Pei Ye said.

"No, I promised my mother." Chi Jingyao said: "Come back later when you have time."

He said squatting beside the medicine spring, reached out to touch the spring water, and said: "You can also get a medicine spring in your general's mansion later, but I don't know if it's good or not, especially since the spring water here is running water. Take care of it, and it's clean..."

"If you like it, it will be a waste of time to find someone later." Pei Ye said.

"Forget it." Chi Jingyao said: "Anyway, we have horses, so you can bring me back when you want to come back."

Pei Ye responded, then put his arm around him, and leaned towards his lips to kiss him.

"Second brother... Do you want to be together..." Chi Jingyao asked in a low voice.

"Okay." Pei Ye suppressed a smile and nodded, naturally he was happy.

Chi Jingyao hadn't soaked in the medicinal spring for a long time, and after entering, he was so comfortable that he almost cried.

Pei Ye came in and sat next to him, holding him in his arms.

"Second brother, I'm so happy." Chi Jingyao leaned in his arms and said.

"Yeah." Pei Ye couldn't help but kissed him again, and said, "Second brother is also happy."

Chi Jingyao looked at him through the night, and then couldn't help but sighed: "It would be great if my parents didn't get angry when they found out about us. Later, when your general's mansion is built, you can take them together Go live. Didn’t elder brother say that when someone took over the village school, he would go to the county to find an errand? At that time, elder brother, sister-in-law and Pei Ning can also live with us. Your general’s mansion must be very spacious... the family stays in the Only one place is lively."

"Yeah." Pei Ye replied, "It's all up to you."

"But..." Chi Jingyao didn't know what to think, and looked a little sad.

Pei Ye held him in his arms and kissed him, and said, "Actually... Mom and Dad already know."

"Know what?" Chi Jingyao asked blankly.

"I know about us." Pei Ye said.

Chi Jingyao was startled, and said nervously, "How is that possible? You told them?"

"On the day you were sick, I was too anxious to take care of it for a moment... Let dad see it." Pei Ye said: "You just recovered from your illness these two days, so I didn't tell you."

Chi Jingyao was so frightened that he didn't speak for a long time, and then asked: "Then...Then they..."

"I'm angry, but you've seen it too... Mother still treats you the same as before." Pei Ye comforted.

Chi Jingyao was taken aback for a moment, and then he came to his senses, and suddenly said: "No wonder my mother has ignored you these days!"

After Chi Jingyao learned of this, he was nervous and afraid at first, but gradually calmed down a lot.

If Pei Ye hadn't told him today, he really didn't see the clue.

This shows that although Rong Niang and Father Pei are not happy, they have acquiesced in their relationship.

Otherwise, they might have driven the two of them out of the house that night.

Thinking of this, Chi Jingyao felt guilty and happy at the same time.

"Why are you still crying?" Pei Ye asked.

"I didn't cry...I'm happy." Chi Jingyao hugged Pei Ye and said, "Dad and mother are really not angry anymore?"

"Mostly, anger is still anger, but it will disappear after a long time." Pei Ye said.

When Chi Jingyao heard the words, he felt that the stone that had been pressed in his heart for a long time finally fell to the ground slowly.

He imagined countless possibilities, but he didn't dare to think that the two of them would pass the test so easily.

But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that although the matter went smoothly unexpectedly, it seemed reasonable.

Just like when he walked into Pei's house, it was so abrupt and his origin was unknown, but the Pei family still accepted him.

Later, even after knowing that he was not a girl but a boy, the family did not show any dissatisfaction or harshness.

Chi Jingyao sometimes felt that the life he regained was like a gift from fate to him.

Whether it's the relatives of the Pei family, his master, or even the friends he met...

And Pei Ye.

"Second brother... I think I'm so lucky." Chi Jingyao leaned in Pei Ye's arms and said, "I seem to have met all the good people in the world. I escaped with Ruan Baozi when I was seven years old. Since then, I I haven't encountered any bad people or bad things."

Pei Ye's heart softened when he heard this, and said: "It's not because you are lucky, but because you will reap what you give to others. I haven't asked you before, but I guess, the elder brother's condition will improve back then. , because you secretly gave him pills, right?"

Chi Jingyao was startled when he heard the words, then nodded.

"Dr. Cheng's fate with you was also because of those pills?" Pei Ye asked.

"Well." Chi Jingyao said: "He is a drug addict. I saw that he didn't look like a mercenary, so I gave him a pill."

Chi Jingyao thought for a while, and said, "In this way, my good luck is actually thanks to my juggling."

"Your good luck is because of yourself." Pei Ye said: "Some people, no matter what kind of situation they are in, will try their best to go to the place where there is light. Some people can walk the road to heaven more and more. Narrow, you always feel that everything you get is a gift from fate, but you don’t know... For many people, you are the treasure that fate bestows on them.”

Pei Ye stretched out his hand to caress the young man's pretty cheek, and said softly: "The family cares about you because you are worthy of their attention. Doctor Cheng took you as an apprentice not because of those pills, but because he likes you."

"You saved so many lives, not because of the medicine, but by yourself." Pei Ye said seriously: "Medicine will only become a good medicine if it falls into the hands of those who have the heart to help the world. The reason why the doctor will take a fancy to you."

Today's Chi Jingyao has already seen these things aside.

But when he heard Pei Ye explaining himself so earnestly, he was still quite upset.

"Second brother, I'm so embarrassed by your praise." Chi Jingyao rubbed his shoulders against him.

Hearing this, Pei Ye's eyes were tinged with a smile, and he leaned into his ear and whispered: "Doctor Chi, I also have a minor illness now, and I need your help to treat it."

"Second brother, what's wrong with you?" Chi Jingyao asked.

"You'll know if you give me a diagnosis." Pei Ye said with a smile.

Chi Jingyao was taken aback for a moment, and immediately realized something, and looked around subconsciously.

"Not here... What if someone comes?" Chi Jingyao whispered.

"I have good hearing, and I can hear people who come close." Pei Ye said: "At that time, it will be said that we are soaking in a medicinal spring. Anyway, no one will be able to see clearly."

As Pei Ye said, he had already pressed him against the wall of the pool and kissed him down...

……

The two of them have been holding back for too long these days, and they didn't give up until the middle of the night that night.

Pei Ye seemed to like that medicine spring very much, and took Chi Jingyao there again at nightfall the next day.

After these two nights, Pei Ye made up his mind that he must build such a hot spring in the General's Mansion in the future.

But considering that the family members will live with them at that time, it is best to have this hot spring in their residence alone.

Because they promised Rongniang to go home as soon as possible, everyone left Zhuangzi two days later.

After returning home, Chi Jingyao faced Rong Niang and Father Pei again, somewhat uncomfortable.

Especially when he learned that the two already knew about himself and Pei Ye, his mood became more and more awkward.

But Rong Niang and Father Pei behaved quite naturally, and never showed any dissatisfaction with Chi Jingyao from the beginning to the end.

Only Pei Ye often received "sneering remarks" from Pei's father and Rong Niang.

Later, Chi Jingyao slowly thought about it. He only thought that the matter between himself and Pei Ye was not a happy event in the eyes of his family. Even if everyone accepted it, no one was willing to mention it after the Chinese New Year.

Although he was a bit lost, it was good for him to be able to do this.

He is not an insatiable person, and naturally he will not ask for more.

Before you know it, it's Xiaonian.

Ruan Baozi also came back from the camp that day, and brought back a few scripts along the way, saying that Yang Yue asked him to give it to Chi Jingyao.

Chi Jingyao guessed that [-]% of the books Yang Yue gave were not serious scripts, so he took out a random one and glanced at it, and sure enough, he saw "That night, he attempted to assassinate" written on the cover, and there was a line of small characters under the title, writing Author of "The Stories That the Soft Assassin and the Cold-Faced General Have to Tell".

Chi Jingyao: ...

Where did Yang Yue get these things?

There is a bit of magic in the outrageous!

As soon as the new year is over, it will soon be New Year's Eve.

On New Year's Eve, the whole family gathers for a reunion dinner.

Father Pei drank some wine, and with his permission, Pei Yuan, Pei Ye, and even Chi Jingyao had a drink with him.

When the meal was almost finished, he suddenly took a look at Chi Jingyao and Pei Ye, then smiled rarely, and said, "From now on, the family will be together, let's live a good life."

Chi Jingyao was startled when he heard the words, and subconsciously felt that the family in Father Pei's words were talking about their original relationship.

But he soon realized that Rong Niang, Pei Yuan, and Ding Xiaowan were all looking at him and Pei Ye.

His heart moved, and he quickly understood what happened.

Father Pei is... officially acknowledging his relationship with Pei Ye.

"You two will learn more from your big brother and sister-in-law in the future, and treat each other like guests...cough." Father Pei originally planned to say a few words of blessing, but his education level is not high, and now he is a little excited after drinking, thinking I didn't think of the second half of the sentence for a long time.

"Thank you dad, remember my son." Pei Ye poured out a glass of wine and drank it down.

Seeing this, Chi Jingyao wanted to follow, but Rong Niang said, "You are just fine, why drink so much wine?"

"Mom, I've been cured for more than half a month." Chi Jingyao said.

"Your mother won't let you drink it, so don't drink it." Father Pei said, "Why are you being so polite?"

Chi Jingyao hurriedly put down his wine glass when he heard the words, and subconsciously glanced at Pei Ye.

The two looked at each other, and Chi Jingyao's eyes turned red instantly, and he saw that the corners of Pei Ye's eyes were also slightly glistening with tears.

Although Rong Niang and Father Pei had acquiesced in this matter before, but now they can say it personally, the meaning is completely different to them.This means that in the future, they don't need to have any concealment or restraint at home, and they can get along with each other like Pei Yuan and Ding Xiaowan.

Not long after everyone finished their meal, there was a sudden sound of drums outside.

"Who's playing drums?" Chi Jingyao asked curiously.

"Uncle, take me to see!" Pei Ning was also very excited.

Pei Ye leaned over and hugged Pei Ning, saying: "Pei Qing played the drum, let's all go and have a look."

After hearing the words, everyone knew that there was excitement to watch, so they went out of the house together and walked towards the entrance of the village in the direction of the sound of the drum.

When the villagers heard the sound of the drum, they all came out to watch the excitement.

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, we saw that many people had already gathered there.

Chi Jingyao even saw Ruan Baozi with autumn.

"General, everything is ready." Someone approached Pei Ye and said.

Chi Jingyao saw that the man was Pei Ye's personal soldier, and he had often been with Pei Qing and the others before.

Pei Ye nodded towards the man, and then the drum beat stopped.

Chi Jingyao looked not far away and saw someone holding a torch preparing for something.

Then he understood that the sound of the drum was only for greeting.

The main event is probably at a later date.

Not long after, with the sound of fireworks detonating, a huge cluster of fireworks suddenly rose in the open space not far away.

Chi Jingyao looked up at the huge firework, his heart couldn't help but pounding.

He felt that Pei Ye's hand tightened subconsciously, and his heart felt warm and sweet.

"Last time I made a wish to bring you back safely." Pei Ye said, "I didn't expect it to be so effective."

Chi Jingyao held Pei Ye's hand tightly, unable to say a word.

His second brother actually remembered to set off fireworks for him...

Many villagers in the village saw such beautiful fireworks for the first time, and everyone was very happy to see them.

Taking advantage of no one's attention, Pei Ye handed Pei Ning in his arms to Pei Yuan, and then pulled Chi Jingyao away from the crowd.

"Second brother, when did you prepare?" Chi Jingyao asked.

"Pei Qing and the others did it a few days ago," Pei Ye said.

Pei Qing and the others came back from a big victory this year, and they also wanted to have fun in the village, so after Pei Ye mentioned this matter, they took care of it.

When Chi Jingyao heard the words, he turned his head and glanced at the crowd. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he moved to Pei Ye's lips and kissed him.

"Do you like it?" Pei Ye asked.

"I like it." Chi Jingyao said seriously.

Pei Ye pulled Chi Jingyao and walked in the opposite direction of the crowd for a while.

Chi Jingyao turned his head to watch the fireworks while walking, and slipped on the sole of his foot inadvertently.

Pei Ye hurriedly supported him, and said, "How grown up, I still can't walk steadily."

"Second brother, carry me behind your back." Chi Jingyao said.

When Pei Ye heard the words, he knelt down and motioned for the boy to get on his back.

"You were sick that year, and I carried you behind my back like this, and walked the same way." Pei Ye said.

Hearing this, Chi Jingyao also remembered the past event nearly ten years ago.

At that time, his second brother was only an 11-year-old boy, but the boy walked silently through the heavy snow all night, and carried him from the village to the hospital.

"I remember carrying you on my back at the time. You probably felt uncomfortable along the way, and kept yelling." Pei Ye said.

Chi Jingyao lay on his back and asked, "What did I call?"

"Call everything." Pei Ye said, "I remember most clearly..."

"What is it?" Chi Jingyao asked curiously.

"Dad." Pei Ye said.

Chi Jingyao: ...

"Then you didn't agree?" Chi Jingyao asked.

"I agree." Pei Ye said.

Chi Jingyao: ...

How could his second brother still take advantage of him?

Pei Ye walked for a while with his back on his back, and at some point there was light snow in the sky.

At this time, Chi Jingyao heard Pei Ye say two words: "Baby."

"I called this that night?" Chi Jingyao asked awkwardly.

"No..." Pei Ye said, "I'm calling you."

Chi Jingyao was startled, and realized that Pei Ye had finally given him an exclusive title.

It's just a little too meaty...

But he can barely accept it, and it's quite funny that Pei Ye called it so bluntly.

"Second brother." Chi Jingyao said.

"Yes." Pei Ye responded.

"Second brother." Chi Jingyao called out to him again.

"En." Pei Ye replied again.

"Second brother!" Chi Jingyao said again.

Pei Ye paused, and finally realized that Chi Jingyao wanted him to reply, so he said awkwardly, "Baby."

"Second brother." Chi Jingyao called again with a smile.

"..." Pei Ye realized that the other party was teasing him, but he still said in a muffled voice, "Baby."

"Second brother." Chi Jingyao looked like a child who had discovered a new game.

"Stop making trouble." Pei Ye said awkwardly, "Chi Jingyao!"

The snow fell harder and harder, but Chi Jingyao didn't feel cold as he lay on Pei Ye's back.To him, his second brother was like the best heater in the world, and it was the exclusive one.

"Second brother." Chi Jingyao called him again.

"I want to call back and call again." Pei Ye pinched him and said: "Go back and let you call to your heart's content."

"I want to hear you call me." Chi Jingyao said.

"I'll let you listen to it for a while." Pei Ye said.

Hearing this, Chi Jingyao couldn't help but move closer to Pei Ye's ear, and bit his ear gently.Pei Ye was out of breath, changed direction, and walked quickly towards home.

Behind them, the fireworks continued to explode into the air, reflecting the night sky brightly.

Chi Jingyao closed his eyes, and carefully made a wish: he would always be with his second brother.

Ten years, another ten years, many decades...

And so on and on.
