The general and his spoiled wife

The hustle and bustle outside finally stopped.

The room was silent, with a faint fragrance wafting from the delicate purple-gold stove, and white smoke curling up, blown away by the wind blowing from the window.The study room is filled with the fragrance of ink, and the two kinds of atmosphere are mixed together, which makes a sense of coolness for no reason.

The days in August can occasionally make people feel cold.

Looking at the paintings spread out on the desk, Yun Ci fell into deep thought.

She bit her lip lightly, her brows and eyes were full of obsession and nostalgia that she didn't realize, after the nostalgia, there was a ray of sadness at the end of her eyes.Picking up the pen is for meditation, but now after the painting is finished, her heart can no longer calm down.

Following her line of sight, on the portrait, there is a handsome and bright young man in white clothes, with a peach blossom embroidered on his chest.The peach blossoms are scorching, nothing compares to that man lifting his lips and smiling.

The hair is flying, the skeleton is smart, and the demeanor flowing between the eyebrows is more beautiful than that of a woman.The spring is warm and flowers bloom when you laugh, and the sky is full of snow when you are angry. Who would have thought that the innocent young man is a loyal general who guards the border and teaches the enemy to be frightened?

"It's so nice, and a little cute." Yun Ci bent her lips unconsciously.

I draw my heart with the strokes, and I draw and paint, but what is vivid on the paper is Jiang Huai, who looks envious of all the daughters.

Can't escape?

After looking at it repeatedly for a while, Yunci rolled up the portrait and put it in the painting tube properly, so that no one could see it.

After doing everything, she stared blankly at the void, her heart was empty, since she said those words, her heart seemed to be gouged out by someone, dripping with blood, but the world did not allow her to cry out the pain—it was never Ah Brother's fault, brother likes sister Su, sister Su loves brother, man and woman are a match made in heaven, who can say wrong?

It would be a mistake if she really acted willfully and disregarded the life and death of others.

Yun Ci pinched her eyebrows and rested her arms on the desk in distress, not noticing that her sleeves were swept by the Duan inkstone, and the cuffs were stained with ink.

White clothes, thick ink, seems to be mocking her self-deception.

In an instant, the secret buried deep in her heart wanted to break out. She realized something and closed her eyes in fear.

The wind blows the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus, and after a while, it slowly opens—the eyes are mixed, and the heart is in a mess.

Why?

Suppressing those chaotic and clamoring thoughts, Yun Ci pulled out an extremely dull smile: no matter when, no matter what happens, she will never embarrass brother.

If Brother likes it, she is also willing to accept it.If brother doesn't like it... how could brother not like it?

Yunci shook her head.

"Aci!"

A familiar voice came from behind. Looking back, she saw the corners of Jiang Huai's raised lips, and she smiled too—Brother, are you worried, and came to coax her again?Then should she pretend to be difficult to coax?

Jiang Huai walked over in three steps and two steps. When she came, the little apprehension on the way was easily resolved by the little girl with a smile, and she regained her courage. She smiled and took Yun Ci's hand, and said mysteriously: "A Ci, come here."

Yun Ci let her temper go, and sat obediently across from her. I have to say that the joy in my heart was greater than the sadness to see my brother at this moment.

At the very least, no matter what Brother Brother said this time, she did not drive him away—the days that she could be with Brother Brother were not as long as she imagined: "What is Brother Brother going to do, is there some novelty for me?" ?”

Um?Novelties?Jiang Huai was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly felt that the banknotes in his arms were a little hard to get out of his hands. His eyes glanced at the little girl's cuffs wrapped in gold silk, and he said duplicity: "I just want to chat with you."

Yun Ci looked at her for a long time, then smiled suddenly: "Is it addictive to lie to me?"

Jiang Huai exclaimed, "Why is Ah Ci so smart?"

With a hearty smile, he finally handed it over as if flattering, with arrogance: "Here."

I thought it was a fun thing, but I didn't expect it to be a bank note. It seems that her brother, who loves money, understands it very well.

Yunci smiled and unfolded the folded banknote. After seeing the face value, her smile froze slightly: "20 taels?"

"Cough cough." Jiang Huai'er's root was flushed, he pressed his fist to his lips, and said cautiously: "Too little?"

Yunci looked at her dotingly, but wanted to laugh helplessly, she snatched a bank note from her sleeve pocket, and placed it lightly on the corner of the table, "Brother, how come you are so tight? With 20 taels, you want to make a girl happy. It's a loss." It's me, and someone else will ignore you?"

The tenderness is like water, the bright and demure smile, the tail sound is like a cat's small tail sweeping over the heart, which makes people's hearts itch. Jiang Huai is fascinated by the unique elegance of her daughter's family.

"Brother?"

Jiang Huai picked up the bank note slowly, her eyelashes trembling slightly—500 taels?

Exchange 20 taels back to 500 taels... A little confusion appeared in her clear eyes: "Why did you give me the bank note?"

"I'll keep you." Yun Ci smiled innocently.

The words blurted out, and seeing Brother's face change slightly, she immediately remedied: "Brother used to raise me, so now I can raise Brother, okay? I'll give Brother my money to spend."

"..."

The corners of her lips couldn't hold back the smile, those sparkling eyes were full of jokes, Yunci said meaningfully: "Brother, 20 taels of silver can't please a girl, look, I can take it out casually." For 500 taels, I am now richer than my elder brother."

"So? Is Ah Ci making fun of me for being poor?" Jiang Huai looked confused. How could she be poor?She is obviously very rich!

"So..." Yun Ci hooked her little finger, and begged softly, "Let's pull the hook, shall we? You raised me for more than ten years, and now I've grown up, Jiang Huai, let me raise you." For you, I will work hard to make money!

Jiang Huai secretly liked the intimacy hidden in her lips and teeth, and asked, "You raise me?"

"That's right." Yun Ci's smile deepened: "At least if I want to coax brother, I won't rush over with 20 taels."

Alright, Jiang Huai asked curiously, "Then how much cash is enough for Ah Ci to coax me?"

"All." Yun Ci looked directly into her eyes, and said solemnly: "I bet everything, and I think it's worth it for my brother to show his face and smile."

Jiang Huai was dumbfounded.

She was here to coax people, why did she have the illusion of being coaxed by A Ci?

"Brother, come and pull the hook."

"..."

What can Jiang Huai do?I can only hook her up with a smile!

It was a game only played by children, but they never got tired of it.

In the study room, there is joy and warmth.

"Brother, you promised, you promised to let me raise you."

"Well, I agree, do I dare not agree?" The little ancestor finally took care of her, but he didn't dare to provoke her again.

Jiang Huai noticed the ink marks on her cuffs early in the morning, and only then asked: "Are you painting? Where are you painting?"

She pretended not to understand: "What are you talking about, brother?"

Perhaps she was pretending too perfunctorily, Jiang Huai laughed, and scratched her nose with her fingers: "You, you have been nestled in the study for a long time, you can't tell me that you have been in a daze?"

Yun Ci secretly thought: I was really in a daze, just in a daze, so I moved brother to the drawing paper.

But will she say this?Will she admit it?of course not.Yunci made a cup of tea for herself, her tone was tight and her attitude was firm: "I won't show it to you anyway."

"Tsk. Ah Ci and I have a secret."

secret.

Yun Ci's breath was stagnant, and she didn't dare to look at her.

"Sure enough, there is a secret..." Jiang Huai smiled slightly, her little finger was still hooked on Yun Ci's finger, and she gently pulled her hand, Yun Ci had to look sideways at her.

"Brother, of course there will be secrets when you grow up, don't you have any secrets, brother?"

Jiang Huai didn't dare to say anything - she had a secret, and she had a lot of secrets.

Seeing her silence, Yun Ci was startled slightly.At first it was just subconsciously teasing, but now that I think about it—brother has something to hide from her?

This feeling went back and forth in my heart for a few times. The two people who had secrets were speechless for a while, but they were reluctant to sit still. Jiang Huai asked, "A Ci, why were you unhappy before?"

"Why? Isn't it just for you." Yun Ci raised her lips and leaned back on the chair lazily, her voice was soft: "Brother, today... I saw it. I saw you and Sister Su Qing Qing me, I saw you Intimate..."

Her fingers caressed Jiang Huai's lips uncontrollably, "I...I probably really..."

Really...

I like you.
