"Second brother..." The boy seemed very interested in Pei Ye's eyelashes, and he wanted to say something.

The two were too close, Pei Ye was very uncomfortable by their breath, reached out and pinched their chins, and turned the other's face away.

"Second brother..." Chi Jingyao turned his head away without giving up.

Pei Ye raised his hand again and turned his head back, saying in a deep voice, "Look? Yu, don't? Look? Me."

"The rain... stopped." Chi Jingyao said, "Second brother, the rain has stopped."

Pei Ye heard the sound? Looked up? Go, sure enough? The rain outside had stopped at some point.

When Yang Yue and Ruan Baozi heard the movement, they hurriedly got up, and the boss jumped into Ruan Baozi's arms.

The crowd returned to Zhuangzi while the night had not completely fallen.

Pei Qing was about to go to them? They? Seeing them? They? Finally heaved a sigh of relief when they came back.

Because they? They? delayed so long, Huber's supper was already done.

But? He? Worried that the fish brought back by Ruan Baozi would not be fresh, so he cleaned up the fish and fried it, and made a fish soup for everyone.The half basket of river clams was raised by? He? in a pot, ready to be disposed of tomorrow.

On the way back just now, Pei Ye didn't speak all the way?

Chi Jingyao felt that he was not very happy, but a little confused.

When it was time to eat, Pei Ye remained sullen. Chi Jingyao teased him a few times to talk, but he only responded with a simple sentence, and he had no intention of chatting foolishly.

"I'll take a bath by myself at night." Chi Jingyao said after the meal.

"Your feet are still hurt, how do you wash them?" Pei Ye asked.

"I'll just find a horse to sit on." Chi Jingyao said.

"What if I slip and fall?" Pei Ye asked.

He said to put away the dishes and chopsticks, and said, "I'll wash it for you in a while."

Pei Ye sent out the bowls and chopsticks, and came back after a while, still looking bad.

"Second brother, are you stupid? Have you returned to the camp?" Chi Jingyao asked.

"I told you to leave until your foot injury recovers." Pei Ye said, "When did I lie to you?"

Chi Jingyao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words. Pei Ye saw the boyish expression in his eyes, and his mood turned slightly better.

Before going to bed, Pei Ye carried Chi Jingyao to the bathroom.

They? After getting the hot water done, they let the other party take off their clothes.

Chi Jingyao was injured on his feet and couldn't stand up, so Pei Ye found a chair to sit on and asked the other party to sit on him.

However, Pei Ye didn't wash with him, and he was still wearing clothes, so this posture is not very awkward.

"Second brother, good? It's been a long time since I received a letter from my elder brother. Has he not sent a letter from home recently?" Chi Jingyao asked.

Pei Ye was taken aback when he heard the words, and said, "No."

They had a slightly guilty expression when they said this, but Chi Jingyao didn't notice because he turned sideways to them.

"Didn't elder brother always send home letters on a fixed day before? Why did it take so long this time?" Chi Jingyao wondered.

"Who knows, maybe the family is too busy." Pei Ye said.

A trace of doubt flashed across Chi Jingyao's face, but he didn't continue to ask.

But Pei Ye couldn't help but feel a little guilty at the moment, because he cheated the boy.

Pei Yuan's family letter had already been sent? He? He deliberately didn't show it to Chi Jingyao.

And the reason why he didn't show it to Chi Jingyao, how much? Some? Selfishness in it...

Every time Pei Yuan wrote family letters, he would gossip about some interesting things at home, such as Pei Ning can talk? What did he learn today, what joke did he make yesterday? And so on... He would also talk about it in the letter? Fun things in the village.

In the family letter this time, Pei Yuan mentioned a few words in a joking tone, saying that the matchmaker in the village came to marry Pei Ye again, and he was afraid that Pei Ye would marry another girl from the family... In addition to these... , Pei Yuan also mentioned, saying that unexpectedly? A matchmaker also came to propose a kiss for Chi Jingyao.

Chi Jingyao used to do free clinics in nearby villages, which is also a good reputation.

In addition, he is exquisite and beautiful, and his temperament is easy to get along with, so he is naturally likable.

He? Now 16 years old is not too old, but according to Dayu's rules, he has reached the age where he can get married.

Of course, when Pei Yuan said these things, he just thought they were interesting, so he wanted to share them with them.

But he didn't think that this letter hit Pei Yexin's nest, as if he was deliberately reminding him that Chi Jingyao was going to get married...

Pei Ye didn't even dare to show the letter to the teenager, for fear of seeing some yearning look from the other side.

So, he was simply selfish for a while, and left the letter, but he didn't bring it with him when he came to Zhuangzi this time.

Their original plan was not to take the initiative to send the letter to Chi Jingyao, but to wait for him to ask.

But when the other party asked him just now, he didn't know what was going on, but he lied out of nowhere.

The words? Pei Ye regretted it when he said it, but Chi Jingyao didn't continue to ask, he? Foolish? He didn't know how to change his words.

That night, he helped Chi Jingyao take a bath and put on his clothes, and then sent him back to the room before going back to take a bath by himself.

Chi Jingyao originally said he would stay and help him wipe his back, but he refused.

Chi Jingyao had finished taking a shower, and when he lay down and was about to sleep, he heard someone knocking on the door.

When he opened his mouth to ask, he learned that the person outside was Pei Qing.

"Brother Pei Qing, come in." Chi Jingyao said.

Hearing this, Pei Qing opened the door and came in, but found that Pei Ye was not there.

"My second brother went to take a shower." Chi Jingyao said.

"Then I'll go out and wait for the general." Pei Qing said.

Chi Jingyao hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother Pei Qing, wait a minute, I have something to ask you."

"What's the matter?" Pei Qing asked puzzled.

"These days, have you ever received a letter from home?" Chi Jingyao asked.

"Have you received it? Half a month ago." Pei Qing said.

Chi Jingyao felt relieved when he heard the words. He? At that time, he heard Pei Ye say that he hadn't received the letter from the family, and he was still a little worried, maybe something happened at home.He didn't dare to ask in front of Pei Ye, for fear of making Pei Ye worry.

But since Pei Qing received the letter from the family, if something happened, Pei Qing's family would probably mention it.

Look at Pei Qing's expression, it's very natural, it should be all right.

Pei Qing didn't know that Pei Ye didn't give Chi Jingyao a family letter, so when Pei Ye forgot, he said casually: "The general probably forgot to bring it here, he was too hasty when he came."

"My elder brother also sent a letter from home?" Chi Jingyao asked.

"Yes, they were sent together." Pei Qing said.

Chi Jingyao was a little puzzled when he heard the words, but he didn't expose it in front of Pei Qing.After all, Pei Ye is Pei Qing's boss. Chi Jingyao isn't stupid? Ask him about his second brother in front of Pei Qing. What do you have to say? He? It's better to ask him face to face, so as not to cause misunderstandings.

But how much did he know about this? Some doubts. He didn't understand that it was just a letter from home. Why did his second brother hide it from him?

You know, Pei Ye has never lied to him. During dinner today, the other party said this to him...

Why did you deceive people in the blink of an eye?

When Pei Ye returned after taking a bath, he didn't go to sleep on Chi Jingyao's couch, but went to ask someone for another blanket, and lay down directly on the low couch.The low couch was a little short, so Pei Ye had to drag another chair to one side.

"Second brother, why don't you come? Come and sleep with me?" Chi Jingyao asked puzzled, "This bed is much more spacious than your bed in Daying."

"I'm used to sleeping on my own, so you don't have to worry about me." Pei Ye said: "If you want to get up at night, remember to call me, don't come down by yourself."

Hearing this, Chi Jingyao lay down sideways, looked at Pei Ye who was on the low couch not far away, and wondered how to ask him about the family letter.

Seeing that he was lying down, Pei Ye extinguished the candle.

"Second brother..." In the dark, Chi Jingyao considered his tone and asked, "Did elder brother really not come home? Have you forgotten?"

Pei Ye was startled when he heard the words, realized something, and asked, "Did you ask Pei Qing?"

"No...Brother Pei Qing came to look for you and saw that you were not here...I asked him casually." Chi Jingyao said.

Pei Ye didn't say anything for a while after hearing the words, Chi Jingyao felt that he was a little unhappy.

"You must have forgotten, right?" Chi Jingyao made up for him.

"No." I didn't feel so foolish that Pei Ye didn't accept his love at all, and said bluntly, "I haven't forgotten."

I didn't forget, it was deliberately not showing him.

Chi Jingyao became more and more puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask.

I don't know why, but he thinks his second brother's mood is very strange.

Not just this matter? When he was in the wooden house today, something was wrong with his second brother.

On the way back, things didn't get any better, and now it's getting worse.

"Second Brother..." Chi Jingyao said, "You must have forgotten, right?"

"I haven't forgotten, I didn't show it to you on purpose." Pei Ye said.

He's a little angry now, not with the boy, but with himself.

He was angry at himself for being so selfish that he would hide the family letter from Chi Jingyao.

Just because of him? Is that shameful thought?

Knowing that these problems will have to be faced sooner or later, and knowing that there should be no interference, they still lied to the other party.

"You definitely didn't mean it." Chi Jingyao said.

"I did it on purpose." Pei Ye said.

"you are not."

"I'm."

"..."

"..."

After a long silence.

Chi Jingyao said again: "Second brother, are you angry?"

"Why should I be angry? You should be angry." Pei Ye said.

Is it him? Withholding the family letter and not giving it to others, it is natural to be angry? It should be the other party who is angry. What right does he have to be angry?

Pei Ye was very annoyed at the moment, regretting that he had done such a stupid move, but Chi Jingyao didn't blame him, and even kept giving him? Steps, which made him feel even more ashamed.

"Second brother, I'm not angry with you." Chi Jingyao said.

"You can? Get angry." Pei Ye said.

"I'm not stupid? Angry, why do you want to make me angry?" The boy turned over after saying that, and ignored Pei Ye.

He wasn't angry when he said that, but did he feel a little wronged?

He? Don't know what happened to him? Second brother, okay? Just don't give him a letter from home, and it's still so inexplicable.

Pei Ye's emotions were quickly restrained. They looked in the direction of the young man through the night, and saw the other party raised his hand, as if wiping tears.His heart tightened immediately, feeling guilty and distressed.

It's obviously all his fault, yet he wants the other party to suffer such grievances.

Pei Ye opened his mouth, Yu? He said a few words to comfort Chi Jingyao, but he didn't know what to say.

He has never been a person who can say good things, lest he talk too much and it will be self-defeating...

Thinking of this, Pei Ye suddenly got up and left the room.

Chi Jingyao was feeling a little aggrieved at the moment, so he ignored him.

It was rare for the two of them to quarrel like this, and it was the first time like today.

Chi Jingyao was wronged for a while under the quilt, and at first he was stupid, and Pei Ye didn't talk to them when he came back.

But they waited for a long while, and they couldn't help being a little worried until Pei Ye came back.

They got up stupidly and went out to have a look, stupidly thought that their foot injury was not healed, and if their second brother saw them sneaking down to the ground, they would be unhappy, so they had to lie down again.They sulked for a while in the bed, felt wronged for a while, and then began to feel sleepy.

Young? How are you? It's not easy to fall asleep when I finally heard the movement outside.

After a while, the door was pushed open, and Pei Ye walked in.

Chi Jingyao had already decided not to be angry, but when Pei Ye came back, they felt a little wronged again.

Xin Dao is obviously you who lied, why did you still get angry and ran out...

So, the boy hid in the quilt and pretended to be asleep, intending to ignore the other party.

Pei Ye stepped lightly, walked up to them and stood for a while, then reached out to help them pull the quilt.

Chi Jingyao pretended to be asleep with his eyes closed, okay? Pei Ye didn't leave after a while, still standing by their bedside.

Later, the boy couldn't pretend anymore, and pretended to turn over and wake up.

"Stop pretending to be asleep?" Pei Ye asked.

"How do you know I'm pretending to be asleep?" Chi Jingyao asked.

"The breathing is messy. Besides pretending to sleep, it's just a nightmare." Pei Ye said.

As he spoke, he took out an envelope from his arms and put it beside Chi Jingyao's pillow.

"What?" Chi Jingyao asked.

"Letter from home." Pei Ye said.

Chi Jingyao was startled, and quickly reached out to take it, but Pei Ye said again: "Wake up tomorrow and watch it again? It's too late now."

"Didn't you say you forgot to bring it?" the boy asked suspiciously.

"It's not that I forgot to bring it, but I didn't bring it on purpose." Pei Ye said: "I just went back to the camp and got it back."

Chi Jingyao: ...

Him? The second brother ran back and forth for twenty miles in the middle of the night just to get a letter from home?

"Are you still angry?" Pei Ye asked.

"A little..." Chi Jingyao turned over and said, "Unless...you read the family letter to me."

Pei Ye felt a little helpless when he heard the words, so he had no choice but to light a candle.

Chi Jingyao was just talking casually, but he didn't realize that his second brother actually took the family letter and started to read it to him.

"My brother Peiye, my brother Ayao...a farewell? It's been a long time, I miss you deeply..."

Sitting beside the boy's bed, Pei Ye read Pei Yuan's family letter word by word by the candlelight.

They were originally a little nervous, for fear that the boy would be excited and pull him to talk about the topics in the letter after listening to them.

But for some reason, the boy seemed to be out of interest after listening to the family letter, and even a little lost in thought.

In the end, Chi Jingyao only expressed some opinions on the part of the letter about Pei Ning, and never mentioned anything about the matchmaker.

"Go to sleep." Pei Ye said after putting away the family letter.

"Can't sleep..." The young man rolled in the blanket and said, "Second brother, tell me a story."

"How old is it?" Pei Ye asked.

"Can't you listen to stories when you grow up?" the boy said aggrievedly.

If it was in the past, Pei Ye might not have indulged him anymore, but today he has just deceived someone and made him feel wronged. He will inevitably be foolish to make up for it, and naturally he cannot bear to refuse the boy's request.

Pei Ye had no choice but to sit back on the couch again.

But they have been fooling around for a long time, but they didn't come up with any stories.

"There is a book in the desk drawer. Yang Yue gave it to me. I didn't even have time to read it. Why don't you read the book to me?" said the young man.

Hearing this, Pei Ye walked to the desk and took out a stack of scripture books from it. It looked like there were five or six books.

They walked up to the candlelight and looked at the first volume of the storybook in the light of the candlelight, and their complexion suddenly became very complicated.

I saw those words? On the top of the book were written a few large characters "The Rough Orion's Good Wife". This is the book that he didn't have time to read before...

Pei Ye: ...

The author has something to say:

Yang Yue: Surprised or not?
