Time passed so unhurriedly, Tom was already ten years old, and had been in the Lin Mansion for half a year.

Tom stayed in the orphanage for a whole day that day, and returned to Lin's house in the middle of the night. As soon as he got home, he found that the quietness was different from the usual. Today, there were small and broken sounds in the yard that were lowered as much as possible but still continued.

Walking a little further, Daiyu was still asleep, but a little restless.Walking quickly to the door, there are figures with lanterns walking outside in the dark night.

"What's the matter?" Tom lowered his voice.

Nong Ping came to his side, and every time Tom returned to London, Nong Ping would stay in Daiyu's room, waiting for Tom to come back to take care of him: "Aunt Lv in the yard over there gave birth prematurely, since Tianming was born today. , it may be difficult labor, several midwives have come." Nong Pingxu pointed to the Nanhe courtyard in the distance.

The yard is on the south side, and there are lotus ponds, which are cold in winter and attract mosquitoes in summer.Tom knew there was an aunt there, but the aunt had never been out of Nanheyuan, and Tom had never seen it.

"You and Yuhua go outside and watch, and whoever yells will shut up and send them out. If you quarrel with Yu'er, no one will survive." Tom was very dissatisfied with a sullen face.

Although Tom was taught by Mr. Chen at a young age, he does not have the temperament of a gentle gentleman like Mr. Chen. On the contrary, he is decisive and unquestionable. Jia Min often jokes that Tom should be a general if he has such a temperament.As far as he is now, none of the servants would dare to neglect him because of his appearance and identity, and he will become more and more like a big master when he serves him.

After Nong Ping and Yu Hua left, Tom turned and walked into the room, and sat next to Dai Yu. The night watchman silently thought, Tom waved his hand, and everyone went back to their seats.

Holding Daiyu's hand, the breath circulated between the two, seeing that Daiyu was fast asleep, Tom left.After Tom left, Nanny Yang stepped forward, carefully looked at Daiyu's face, she was peaceful, and touched her hands and feet, they were all warm, and then put down the bed curtain with confidence.

The next morning, Tom woke up on time.Before I greet you, I always go to Daiyu's room to bring Daiyu. When I arrived in the room today, Daiyu was still washing. The son is wiping her face.Her little face was pink, her eyes were still a little bit closed, and she was yawning a little.

Tom sat aside, the little girl brought warm water, and Nong Ping took it and handed it to Tom.Pick up a book at random, some of the books here are put here for Tom himself. Daiyu knows every word, but it's not very clear when they are linked together.

While reading, drinking water, waiting for Daiyu.After finishing the two cups of warm water, Daiyu came out from the room: "Brother, brother, I'm fine."

Putting down the book, naturally a little girl will bookmark it.Daiyu was still young, but she acted gracefully, especially after the two nuns came, her actions became a little more dignified.

Holding Daiyu's hand, Tom led her into the main room.Jia Min didn't look like he woke up, as if he hadn't slept all night, and there were obvious bruises under his eyes.At the moment, there is a small cradle beside the couch, and beside it stands a daughter-in-law in Tsing Yi whom she has never seen before.

Presumably the one in the cradle was the child that Aunt Lu gave birth to last night.

"Greetings to mother." Tom greeted Jia Min with Daiyu.

"My son, come quickly." Jia Min beckoned them to come over. Daiyu was the first to be hugged into Jia Min's arms, and Tom also leaned in. For such a long time, Jia Min loves to be close to them, and Tom has long since stopped He sat down on the big chair next to him, and only sat on the side of the couch to get close to Jia Min.

There was a cradle next to it, but Jia Min didn't notice it, but Tom hadn't moved yet. Just as Jia Min was talking, Tao Xin ordered the little girl and the daughter-in-law in Tsing Yi to move the cradle away.

It was only then that Jia Min realized that the child was still by her side, but she didn't make any arguments at this time. She hugged Daiyu and asked her in a childlike manner if she slept well. If Gao was unhappy today, she held her hand again Tom's hand: "When did Brother Tang come back last night? Something happened at night, did it disturb you? Did you sleep well? There was some noise last night. Brother Tang will discuss with Mr. Chen today. The course will be halved. I won’t go to martial arts training in the afternoon, just a set of boxing will do. I don’t want you to be an official butcher at home, such a big family business is enough for both of you brothers and sisters.”

With such concern every day, Tom felt that maybe the women in the house could only express themselves in this way.It's just that there was a newborn child next to her today, but Jia Min still only said that they were brother and sister, apparently not taking this newborn seriously.

It had nothing to do with him, and he was a child who might be robbed by him. Of course, Tom couldn't give him too much attention. Not killing him with his own hands was already the greatest care.

The Lin family belongs to Daiyu, and it is also his own. This notion is not only formed by himself, but also subtly influenced by Jia Min and Lin Ruhai every day.

"Ah." The baby's voice came from the cradle, and the daughter-in-law in Tsing Yi carefully picked up the baby and handed it to the mask, her voice flattering: "Ma'am, brother is awake."

The little baby just woke up from sleep, and when it was handed to Jia Min, it was still smiling.It's just that the newborn baby has wrinkled skin and no teeth. It's okay to smile, but when he smiles, his mouth opens and saliva flows out.

That's ugly, Sharpei spitballer.Tom thought the child looked like the Shar Pei breed that the rich man had seen in the orphanage.

Tom didn't say a word, but Daiyu, a clean little girl, didn't have any scruples, and didn't think so much: "Mother, he's wrinkled." When the baby's saliva flowed down, Daiyu even moved back: "He's still drooling."

The little baby's first side obviously didn't reach the favorability level.

Seeing the tired look on Jia Min's face, Tom took Daiyu out of her arms and put her on his lap.Green Glazed took a step forward and adjusted the lead pillow to make Jia Min lean more comfortably: "What brother? Which brother? There are two brothers in the family. Brother Tang is the elder brother and the uncle. As for him, he will be the one in the future Let’s call him Erye. It’s just that Erye was born prematurely, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold back the name now, so I’ll talk about it when I’m older, and I’ll call him Erye according to the sequence.”

In this way, not to mention the big name, there is not even a small name that can be called: "From the Wu family, you will be the nurse of the second master in the future, the second master is Jingui, the second son of the master, you must be careful Some." Touching Daiyu's small face, Daiyu looked up at her with a smile, Najiya didn't know when she climbed up, resting her head on Daiyu's arrow, spitting out a letter.

After such a long time, Jia Min is still a little timid towards Najya, let's just think it is laughing.

Take a deep breath: "Okay, you still go to Nanheyuan with your brother, and find Taoxin if there is anything missing. The second master just gave birth, so go back, be careful, don't catch the wind."

Nanny Wu hugged the baby and saluted before leaving. None of the big girls beside Jia Min moved, only a little girl outside the door followed.

"You two don't worry about it, go to the ear room for dinner. Brother Tang, take a rest today, don't be brave, you should take care of your body when you are young." The mother-in-law came to report that the meal was ready, and Jia Min sent them The two went to eat: "The master rested in the yamen yesterday, and he probably also rested in the yamen today, Lan Hua, go prepare some meals for the boy to send to the yamen, prepare some up and down. I am tired all night Take a break and go."

Tom led Daiyu to have breakfast, and then led her to the study, followed by a group of people, but only two voices could be heard.

As expected, the homework in the morning was halved. Mr. Chen asked Tom to rest by the carved window for a while, and he took Daiyu to wait for two orchid plants beside him. Regardless of whether Daiyu could understand or not, Mr. Chen fell down by himself. Happy to say it.

"Epiphyllum, Mr. has raised it upside down. The flower blooms in the middle of the night, and it blooms extremely beautifully, but it stops before dawn. If you want to see the epiphyllum, you have to wait until late at night, wait for the flowers to bloom, and wait for the silence." Mr. Chen took Holding the small spoon for watering flowers, the topic changed from orchids to epiphyllum, and the amorous feelings in the words made Daiyu wish to see him right away.

It's time to get up after resting for a while, and it will be lunch time after a while.Tom woke up but didn't move. He just lay there quietly, enjoying the slight wind and the not-so-hot sun, and casually listened to Mr. Chen urging Daiyu to go to his place to watch epiphyllum at night.

Seeing the surprise on Daiyu's face, Tom felt that Mr. Chen had succeeded.Sure enough, Daiyu's eyes were sharp, and she saw Tom awake at a glance: "Brother, let's go to see Epiphyllum, sir said that Epiphyllum is very beautiful, okay?"

"I don't like epiphyllum, you go by yourself." Tom pretended to be dismissive, but looked at Daiyu anxiously from the corner of his eyes.

Daiyu pulled Tom's sleeve: "Brother, let's go. It's very beautiful. My husband told me to open it tonight. It's not easy. Go and see. If you don't want to go, Mom will definitely not let me go." .”

Tom made a look of sudden realization: "It turns out that you called me because you wanted to go, and you didn't invite me sincerely at all, so I won't bother with it."

Tom pulled back his sleeves, and Daiyu became even more anxious.Mr. Chen likes Tom the most as a disciple, but the one who loves Daiyu the most is the little doll. Now that Daiyu is so anxious, he directly decides: "Okay, Yu'er, I will go tonight, and the master will go with you." Your parents said that Brother Tang must go too."

"Master is the best. Master is the best teacher." Hearing this, Daiyu was overjoyed, and hurried back to Mr. Chen, and made a big gift.When it was over, he turned around and smiled proudly at Tom.

Sure enough, Master went to Jia Min's place in the afternoon, and Jia Min was not unmoved, but only asked the two children not to mess around at night, and not to cause trouble to Master and Mistress.After dinner in the evening, as expected, a maid was arranged to take them there.

The master and his wife live in the Yanyi courtyard near the front yard, because every day the sun rises in this direction. This courtyard is a two-story building, and it is higher than other courtyards. The first thing the sun shines on is This small building is therefore called Yanxi.

The style of Yanxi Courtyard is quite similar to that of Han Dynasty, and the inside is full of Han style.The epiphyllum was hung not far from the eaves of the second floor of the courtyard, and everyone sat around the railing.

Tom was leaning against the railing, and Daiyu sat beside him facing in.The master blows the xun, and the master plays the piano beside her.The maids added fruit wine to the master's, and they couldn't help but let Tom drink it. After all, he was a boy, but Daiyu drank it. They said it was fruit wine, but it was actually wine mixed with water, which had a faint taste of wine.

Tom became very interested in the xun. Before the epiphyllum bloomed, he learned how to play the xun with Mr. Chen.

"Brother." Daiyu grabbed Tom's sleeve, eager to try "I want to try too" all over her face.

Tom handed the xun to Daiyu, but the xun was quite big and made of Tao. Although the tone of the blowing was indeed low, the weight was indeed heavy: "You hold it." He said that Daiyu should hold it, but he wanted to With Daiyu's little strength, Tom didn't let go, and helped her support her.

"I can't cover it." Daiyu tilted her head and looked at Tom.This xun is a bit big, and Daiyu couldn't finish pinching the sound holes.

Tom looked to make sure that Daiyu couldn't cover everything, so he asked, "Can you remember before and after the tune?"

"I remember." Daiyu nodded.

"Then come here." Tom held Daiyu in his arms, stretched out his hand from behind her, supported the Xun, and also held the three holes at the back: "I will hold these three notes for you, and you can do the rest yourself. Hold it. Still blowing according to the tune just now."

Daiyu nodded.

At the beginning, it was played intermittently, but after one or two times, the two of them were able to play Xiaoyangchun in coordination.

Mr. Chen and his wife watched from the side, looking at each other with a smile in this still-looking tune, as if they were meeting each other for the first time.
