【Lotus Cake】Brother, please respect yourself

Although Ao Bing's medical skills are not as good as Fenghou's, he is more than capable of practicing medicine to save lives.

Facing Ao Guang, in fact Ao Bing was more than close enough to know him well, it would be very impolite to touch the other party's life gate rashly now, but after touching it, Ao Bing felt a little strange again.

After all, judging from various characteristics, Ao Guang should not be a poisoned patient, but the fierceness in his pulse is weird and wonderful. If this will give him a silver needle and let him stab Ao Guang, it should be I can get the answer.

"It's not poisoning, it's an old problem." He breathed out slowly with his collar straightened, and Ao Guang continued without hesitation: "Although the Ao family does not have many children, every generation is not a child. A girl named Ao Ming is your aunt."

"aunt?"

"I just took over the Ao family when you were born, and the foundation was not stable. Your aunt was dissatisfied with your father's choice at the time, so she joined forces with the Pingyuan King of Goguryeo to try to take away the Ao family's drawings and the secrets of our livelihood."

"Why did my aunt do this? Isn't Goguryeo a foreigner?" What benefits can one gain by working for a foreigner?

"Heh." Amused by Ao Bing's question, Ao Guang swallowed his saliva and gave him a narrowed look.

"A hundred years ago, when China was in disarray, the bloodlines of the Central Plains were in chaos. You see, Emperor Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty had Xianbei bloodlines. He changed his name after he became emperor himself. The same is true for the Ao family. Our ancestors actually came from overseas. Later, because they settled down in Donglai and got married step by step, they got the current family."

Staring at the big round eyes, Ao Bing still couldn't accept that he was not Han Chinese for a while, but Ao Guang said that the story was not over yet.

"If my aunt wants to control the Ao family, why does she need me?"

"Because when my father passed away, he told the two of us the biggest secret of the family. Originally, he thought that the two of us would get twice the result with half the effort, but in the end it seemed that the result was twice the result with half the effort."

"Is it a secret again?" Ao Bing felt that the Ao family had too many secrets, and this feeling of being secretive and unclear was really annoying.

"When you inherit the Ao family, I will tell you this secret."

"Then I will be like you, father, to keep my mouth shut for the rest of my life, keeping a secret that might kill me or someone I love."

Ao Bing is not someone who will evade responsibility. He actually does more than anyone else in keeping secrets. What's more, his flesh and blood still have the effect of Hunyuan Tianlingzhu. In this life, he must keep this secret. Leakage will be beyond redemption.

"Are you afraid?"

"I'm not afraid, I just don't know if it's worth it."

For this secret, Mrs. Ao worked hard all her life and died young.

Because of this secret, Ao Guang lost his sister and child, and now this secret may lead to disputes between Ao Bing and Ao Shuang.

"Father, I'm not suitable for this position. What I pursue is too little and too small. I just want the Ao family to be safe, and my loved ones to be happy. I don't have ambitions and I don't know how to manage a big family. I won't lie. It was so hard for me to be the one who kept the secret."

Looking up at the twitch on Ao Guang's face, Ao Bing knew that the other party had listened, but he could not guess how he would make a decision after hearing it. In the end, Nezha was chosen to inherit the position of head, because it was just a fit.

"Let's talk about this topic later." Turning his head away from the light in Ao Bing's eyes, Ao Guang walked out of the ancestral hall without saying a word.

Following behind the other party and watching quietly, Ao Bing blinked and felt a sense of familiarity.

When he was a child, when he was just learning to walk, he would follow behind Shen Gongbao like this, looking up at his tall braids and shoulders. Although Shen Gongbao never looked back at him, the man who always strode like a star would slow down when he followed him. As long as Ao Bing is about to lose his footing, the corner of his clothes will appear in front of his eyes.

He reaches out and grabs it.

Now, Ao Guang is in front of him, within his reach.

"What are you laughing at?" After walking for a while, he held his breath, but before Ao Guang got angry, he heard Ao Bing behind him sneer.

"Just thinking of something."

"what's up?"

He took a step forward and stood side by side with Ao Guang, and while they were walking, Ao Bing said that Ao Guang's brows were already frowning when he heard that Shen Gongbao always gave orders directly when coaxing the children to sleep.

"Actually, it's not an order, it's just 'close your eyes', and you are absolutely not allowed to open them. If you close them like this, you will really fall asleep."

With Shen Gongbao's character, it's really impossible for him to hum a tune to put the child to sleep. Fortunately, Ao Bing has been very well-behaved since he was a child. He never needs to be worried when he sleeps and eats. He especially likes to be busy, so even if Xiao Aobing is tired from work during the day, Shen Gongbao will not let him sleep, so that when he touches the bed at night, the little thing will soon turn into a small mess with the quilt rolled up.

"It would be great if Ao Yan could be so well-behaved when she was a child." When mentioning what his daughter did when she was a child, Ao Guang felt that the hair on the back of his head would turn gray. Child, so Xiao Aoyan became Ao Guang's follower. She sat on her lap when she was doing work, and fell asleep in her arms. Because she didn't have time to accompany her, Ao Guang didn't care whether she was sleeping or awake. At night, Ao Guang had to rest Yes, Ao Yan, who had been lying down for a whole day, began to cheer up.

Walking back from the ancestral hall to the front hall, the dishes on the table were already cold. As soon as the two entered the door, they saw Ao Yan alone, bulging her cheeks and slamming the rice. Seeing the two coming back, her eyes stared like Just like a little squirrel who was caught.

"Only you?"

"Second brother is not feeling well, so he went back to his room."

"Hmm." Ao Guang didn't say much about Ao Shuang's departure. Compared to him, he felt more guilty towards Ao Bing. When Ao Shuang's nanny was in his arms and maids were like clouds, Ao Bing had already learned to teach A disciple of Kunshan, he grew up drinking goat's milk and was taken care of by the golden fairies of the Twelve Peaks in turn, like an unwanted kitten, lonely and quiet.

Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, Ao Guang's heart ached like a knife was scratching him when he heard the news from the spies.

"It's cold, let the kitchen replace it with a warmer one."

Looking at Ao Yan who was holding a bowl and drinking soup, Ao Guang stretched out his hand to touch the side of the bowl, and there was no heat left.

"It's okay, it's okay, I've finished eating, you should eat more, brother, look at your wrist, it's almost as thick as mine."

He raised his tender little hand and compared it to Ao Bing's arm. One joint was slender and fair, and the other had icy skin and smooth skin.

"It seems that your friend didn't fatten you up even though he said it nicely." Sitting at the table and knocking on the empty bowl, Ao Guang was very worried about Li Nezha stopping Ao Bing for a long time If he hadn't been able to leave, he would have rushed to Jiangdu to arrest people.

"Father, why do you have such a hobby?"

Yuanshi Tianzun is like this, Nezha is like this, and now even Ao Guang is like this. Ao Bing feels that if he doesn't grow any more flesh, he will be a little guilty.

"Daddy's not a hobby, it's a bond between father and son. Look, he's beating up his second brother now, and he's going to secretly give things to people later."

Picking up a plate of her favorite pastry and stuffing it in front of Ao Bing, Ao Yan squinted her eyes and started to reveal her shortcomings indifferently.

"cough."

Choking with his chopsticks upright, Ao Guang frowned and took the food with a displeased face, but the slightly trembling stalk still made Ao Bing smile.

On the 11th day when Ao Bing returned to Ao's house, Yang Jian sat in a tea house in the city and saw a group of cavalry galloping from the seaside port to the camp.

Withdrawing his eyes and winking funny, Nezha, who was sitting opposite Yang Jian, was writing the genealogy seriously.

"You get poison for your father and let your mother know, it won't take your skin off."

"What poison? It just looks like poisoning." Raising his head and clicking his tongue twice, Nezha picked up the Ao family tree he had written to dry, and then began to circle the names one by one.

"You poisoned your father and caused Zhou Luohu to come out of the dock. What's next?"

"Next." Nezha tapped his lower lip with the pen, and said without thinking, "Of course I'm going into the dock to see the Ao family's world-famous shipbuilding technology."

"Do you think there is something wrong with the Ao family?"

"There must be a problem with the Ao family, but I don't know whether there is a problem below or a problem above, but the head of the Ao family only takes wives and does not take concubines in every generation, and even if there are two children in the family, they will not be separated. Don't you think this is weird?"

"Is it strange? Although most aristocratic families now use concubines to complete their branches and leaves, some Confucian masters with upright families don't do this either."

"Those Confucian families, although there are some who don't take concubines, they also have common rooms and outer rooms, but they don't carry them in. For them, it's a good thing to add fragrance to their red sleeves. Even if they keep their children afterwards, they will There is a mistress to deal with it, but the Ao family does not, do you know what this means?"

"what?"

"It means they can't let women other than Mrs. Ao have children."

Yang Jian raised his eyebrows, his forehead was full of unknowns, so, they are both women and men, can they still choose?

"Actually, you think, the Ao family came from overseas during the period of the Five Husbands and the Chinese. After several generations of birth and the fusion of the blood of the Han people, their family is good at building ships and large ships. When there are many countries and the Central Plains are divided, they can survive alone. It’s a legend, and it’s because it’s so special that it attracted the attention of Emperor Sui and King Yuan, and Shen Gongbao would cause trouble for my father because he was afraid that I would discover this secret in advance.”

"So this secret must be inside the Ao family, and it comes from the blood of the Ao family."

"That's right." Nezha squinted his eyes and smiled, and continued: "Ao Bing's father had two children, one Ao Guang, who is now the head of the Ao family, and one Ao Ming, his younger sister, who is now the head of the Ao family. Ao Ming has disappeared, and Ao Guang is in his prime and has strong martial arts skills, why would Shen Gongbao think that as long as Ao Bing returns home, he will know the family secrets?"

"Assuming that this secret is known only to the heirs of the family, does that mean that Ao Guang will die during this Goguryeo campaign?"

Yang Jian's guess is very bold, but it is not unreasonable. For people who practice martial arts, the higher the martial arts, the more vigorous their vitality. When they reach the height of Yuanshi Tianzun, there is no problem in living to more than 200 years old.

Ao Guang has only reached the age of knowing destiny this year. Nezha has fought against him and knows how powerful this man is. As long as he does not have an accident, it stands to reason that no one in Donglai can hurt Ao Bing.

Unless the top three masters in the world come together to intercept and kill him, it is impossible to think about it.

"I don't know Shen Gongbao's specific plan, and I don't know where Yang Guang is in this Eastern Expedition. Since there are no clues, why don't we lure the snake out of the hole."

Pointing his fingers over the table, Nezha shrugged and filled himself a cup of tea.

"Your father was transferred to supervise the army because Yang Yong didn't want Yang Guang to take full control of the Eastern Expedition. Zhou Luohou hid in the dock. Your father had to face too many things and had countless loopholes. Now he was suddenly arrested. The so-called Goguryeo spies poisoned Zhou Luohu out of the dock, and the next step is to see what treasures are in the dock, so that the other party should stay at home."

"Actually, there is a little more." Putting down the teacup and wiping his mouth, Nezha picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and stuffed it into his mouth. Now he was so worried about seeing Ao Bing every day that he didn't even taste the sweetness of eating cakes.

"Uncle Jiang will not leave for no reason. He has been fighting with Shen Gongbao for many years. He must have thought of what Shen Gongbao can think of. His departure may be to find a way to solve the problem."

The situation in the entire Dongnai County is complicated, and the forces of all parties are anxious and back and forth. Yang Jian feels a headache just thinking about it, but it's hard for Nezha to figure it out line by line.

Now that Li Jing is "poisoned", and Zhou Luohui leaves the dock, someone must be in charge of the Chinese army camp, and the other party can't leave for the time being. Since the most important secret of the Ao family is in the mansion, the dock's defenses will not be too high. Because it can be seen from Ao Guang's attitude over the years that he doesn't care if someone steals it, because you can't go to sea safely after you steal it.

"By the way, why did you let Li leave?"

"There is a young lady in the Ao family."

"Eldest brother's sister?"

"The other party's hobby is to buy all kinds of weird treasures, and he never stays at home for less than three days."

"then?"

"So I guess she will definitely pull Aobing out recently. I asked Li Li to ambush in the most prosperous Treasure Street in the city, just to pass a message to my brother."

Nezha's guess about Ao Yan is correct. Although Ao Bing's return has made her fresh for a few days, the tenth day is already the limit. Yan's desire to spend money.

What's more, Ao Yan spends more and earns more, and the name "Virgin of Good Wealth" is not entirely luck. Ao Guang said that this girl has sharp eyes and can judge good things and bad things at a glance. After Ao Bing finishes practicing moves, Ao Yan Just hugging her elder brother's arm and dangling, she now wants to take Ao Bing out to show off.

"Will Dad agree?"

Ao Bing thought that Ao Guang would not let him go out for the time being.

"Let's not tell Dad, he must be talking to the boatmen uncles now, and he won't be able to come out until lunch. We will go out now, and we will be back within two hours."

Although Ao Bing used to take care of many children in Kunshan, those little guys were all precocious, and the only naughty one, Nezha, was also a little adult who couldn't hold back his face, so a little girl like Ao Yan who played around and played tricks , Ao Bing was completely helpless.

Being dragged by her sister to change clothes, Ao Yan also took out her exclusive treasure to hang up for Ao Bing, and took her elder brother to look around, Ao Yan covered her face, and began to understand why the four beads in Ao Bing's room Every day is cheerful and buoyant.

"My brother is so pretty."

"Then you don't have to say it every day."

"Hey, this is called expressing feelings, I can't hold back."

After changing her clothes and bringing her maid, Ao Yan pulled Ao Bing excitedly out the door, and when she walked around the corridor, Ao Twin, who was standing at the other end, silently watched the two people's backs gradually drifting away. On Ao Bing's hair, the tender attachment that sinks in the eyes all falls on Ao Yan alone.

Chao Bo, who was waiting at the side, looked back, and when he looked back, Ao Twin had already turned his head. The shadow left in front of his eyes made him look a little haggard. In fact, he is the person with the most right to speak in the family. If he said that he wants to hand over the Ao family to Ao Bing, then Ao Twin really has no room to resist.

And judging from the observations these days, Ao Bing, as the acting headmaster of Kunlun Mountain, the largest sect in the Jianghu, can be called a gentleman in terms of character and dealing with others. In addition, he looks exactly like Ao Guang. He will feel a little comfort in his heart.

Compared with Ao Bing, who is ups and downs and generous, Ao Twin's performance seems too petty.

After slapping Ao Twin, Ao Guang sorted out Ao Bing's living things over the years and gave them to the other party. Ao Twin burned them without even looking at them. How much suffering and suffering, how much his father wanted to make up for him.

Twins are twins, if one is alive, the other is also alive, but when the living one comes back, the Ao Twin as a support loses its meaning.

"Second Young Master, there are some things that I shouldn't say."

"You all want to persuade me to accept him, so what about my wishes?"

He didn't want to be born as a proof that Ao Bing was alive, and he didn't want to take his place before the other party appeared. If Ao Bing hadn't disappeared 30 years ago, as the second child in his family, he had an older brother who could rely on him and a younger sister below. If he can play together, he will have a good and happy life.

But Ao Bing disappeared. From the moment he was born, he was raised as the eldest son. Ao Yan can act like a baby and make mistakes, but he can't. Ao Yan can nest on Ao Guang all day long, but he can't.

Just when he thought he was ready for everything, Ao Bing came back, and everyone turned his attention away. Was his 20 years of life in vain?

"I'm not trying to persuade the second young master to accept it, but whether the eldest young master will inherit the Ao family in the end is actually a matter of two opinions."

"Chao Bo's words, do you mean your father?"

"The master is just blinded by the past affection. Whether the eldest young master is suitable or not, the second young master, you will know soon."

Lowering her eyes to look at the toe of the dusty shoe, Ao Twin thought for a while, but in the end she still couldn't catch up to the pair of brothers and sisters who left.

After leaving the side door of Ao’s house, you can walk around to the most precious treasure street in the city within a cup of tea. Because Donglai is close to the sea, and Ao’s house has large ships, they often bring many overseas treasures.

For Ao Yan who has to go to sea once every ten days, the things in Ao's shop are not the best, because the best things are in the boxes in her room, but after a while she still can't help it. Check it out, buy what you like.

Whether to wear it or not is another matter.

"Won't it be heavy?" Seeing Ao Yan put on a huge emerald earring, Ao Bing weighed it, feeling that the other's small earrings couldn't bear it.

"Brother, you must have never seen Fengguanxiapei."

"I've seen it." Not only have I seen it, but I've worn it, but Ao Bing definitely can't say this.

"You know, when my father married my mother, he made a phoenix crown with his own hands, and it was studded with precious stones and pearls. That thing is not beautiful, but guess how heavy it is."

"How much? Two taels a catty."

"cough."

Ao Bing covered his mouth and choked. Wouldn't his neck hurt with such a heavy thing on his head? !

"So, for the sake of looking good, women can be infinitely powerful."

After saying this, Ao Yan took another gemstone ring and put it on her hand.

The bosses on Zhenbao Street all know Miss Ao's family, and every time she comes, there will be someone to entertain her, and a screen will be set up so that Ao Yan will not be disturbed when she picks things up.

As early as when Ao Bing entered the store, Li Li had found this place, but he really had no skills or money to follow in, so he walked around outside the door. people.

"Master Jiang, why are you here?"

Going around the painting and calligraphy booth, Li Li leaned against the corner of the wall. Jiang Ziya, who was wearing a bamboo hat and dressed in gray, was squatting beside him like a beggar.

"I'm looking for someone."

"Find someone?"

Looking back at the vast sea of ​​people behind him, Li Li was very worried that the other party's eyes would not be enough.

"Who is it, do you need my help?"

"A woman." Taking out the fishing rod and turning it twice in his hand, Jiang Ziya pressed his stomach and let out a breath. Ever since he saw her at the port that day, he had been trying to keep up with her, but after going around for a few days, he was finally caught Get rid of it, as expected, the unfamiliar terrain is prone to accidents.

"There are so many women on this street."

"What about your master?"

"The master and the junior uncle have other things to do, and I am responsible for passing the news to the uncle."

"Then did you pass it on?"

"not yet."

Touching his nose and smiling innocently, Jiang Ziya was amused by the boy's appearance. When he turned his head and looked again, a tall and thin figure walked past. Jiang Ziya jumped up and was about to catch up, but before he could take a step, Ao Bing Having come out of the shop with Ao Yan, Li Li turned his head to look, stretched out his hand and pulled the belt behind Jiang Ziya's back.

"what!"

Seeing the target Ao Bing, Li Li was very excited, and he didn't care about Jiang Ziya who was tripped by him. When the other party held down his belt and raised his head again, only Ao Bing and Aoyan brothers and sisters who came meandering were left in his field of vision. Although they have different appearances, they have an elegant and elegant appearance. Coupled with Ao Yan's identity, they have attracted a lot of attention along the way.

Seeing that the woman disappeared again, Jiang Ziya stopped planning to catch up.

He stepped forward and pulled Li Li's back collar, and the two strode towards Ao Bing and Ao Yan. When Li Li reacted, he was already standing in front of Ao Bing, and Ao Yan who was walking together He tilted his head and looked at him curiously.

"Master, Master, Uncle."

"Who are you calling uncle?"

"It's just..."

"Just what?"

Blinking a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, Ao Yan teased Li Li excitedly. Seeing that the other party was about to bury her head in her chest, Ao Bing pulled the little girl's sleeve to make the other party calm down.

"Did your master send you here?"

"Yes yes yes yes, Master asked me to give this to you."

Taking out a palm-sized lotus leaf bag, Li Li put the thing in Ao Bing's hand, his head was hot and trembling, and he just wanted to leave here immediately.

"Uncle Jiang is also here."

"Yes, this is your sister?"

"Master Jiang is good." Ao Yan smiled politely at Jiang Ziya, and looked at the two with big eyes. She knew that Ao Bing had a life of her own, but that She didn't know anything about the stories in her life. Now that someone about Ao Bing's past appeared, Ao Yan was really excited.

"Hello little girl, since we are so destined, why not meet by chance? It happens that the master is hungry. How about going to eat a bowl of noodles with me?"

Staring at Jiang Ziya in a daze, Li Li opened his mouth, wanting to say that they didn't meet by chance, and they obviously came straight like that just now.

"Master Jiang, please."

"Good good."

Staring blankly at Ao Bing leading the way, Jiang Ziya teased Ao Yan while walking, and when the three of them walked more than a dozen steps, Li Li came back to catch up.

But Jiang Ziya said he wanted noodles, so he really found a noodle stall and ordered three bowls of Yangchun noodles.

Ao Yan didn't eat this side, she has a small appetite, if she won't be able to eat after eating outside, then Ao Guang must know the fact that she ran out to play immediately.

In fact, Ao Bing wasn't very hungry, but seeing Jiang Zi slurping a bowl, Li Li who was next to him took two bites and didn't move.He concentrated on watching the other party eat, and when Jiang Ziya finished eating, Ao Bing pushed his bowl to the other party. The last three bowls of noodles all fell into Jiang Ziya's stomach. He sat at the table and rubbed his waist to show that he was full. up.

"Uncle Jiang is here, is there something unfinished?"

"It is true, but I'm not sure for the time being, but it's better for you and your sister to go out less recently."

"Why?" If Ao Yan was not allowed to go out, she could really get sick.

"If I say that your Ao family is haunted by ghosts who refuse to disperse, do you believe me or not?"

"What did you say?!" Patting the table and frowning, Ao Yan was so angry that she was about to curse. This guy looks honest, how could he speak ill of her Ao family with just one mouth.

"When I got off the boat that day, I was haunted by ghosts. I wanted to catch ghosts, but the other party seemed to have other plans."

Holding his beard and saying this quietly, after seeing Ao Bing's thoughtful gaze, Jiang Ziya knew that the other party already understood.

Jiang Ziya left that day because he saw a dead man, a ghost belonging to the Ao family.

"Hmph, brother, let's not listen to his nonsense. When I get back, I will tell my father that there are charlatans talking nonsense here. He will definitely tell you to leave immediately."

"Good talk, good talk."

Giving Ao Yan a smiling face, Jiang Ziya didn't really dislike the young lady's cuteness.

Ao Bing was pulled up by Ao Yan, and after nodding to Jiang Ziya to express his apology, the two of them ran into the street like flying. After a while, Li Li could no longer see the backs of the siblings.

After returning to Ao's house, Ao Guang really hadn't finished his work.

Ao Yan walked around the door of the study, and after confirming that there was no problem, she gave Ao Bing a victory gesture.

When it was lunch time, Ao Twin, who had been hiding from no one, appeared in the front hall.

Sitting across from Ao Bing, they had a silent meal. Ao Yan tried to lead the two of them a few times during the meal, but Ao Twin ignored them in the end. After the eldest lady came three times, she became angry and simply ignored each other.

After eating in embarrassment, Ao Bing remembered the lotus leaf bag that Nezha gave him, and his heart became agitated. After talking with Ao Guang, he ran back to the room alone, closed the door, and sat down at the table. On the side, Ao Bing unwrapped the straw from the lotus leaf bag, revealing a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the unfolded leaf.

And the pastry was ordered by something, but it actually drew two red little people. Ao Bing pursed his lips and couldn't help laughing. Thinking that Nezha was serious about drawing the appearance of these little people, he found it interesting tight.

Although the sweet-scented osmanthus cake can be eaten when it is cold, it will harden after a long time. Ao Bing pinched the cake and put it to his mouth and licked it. It was so sweet that his heart almost softened.

He opened his mouth and took a bite along the edge of the villain. When Ao Bing lowered his head, he found that in the middle of the lotus leaf, there was a word poked out with a needle——海.

sea?

Licking the corner of his mouth and thinking about it, when the cake in his hand was finished, Ao Bing let out a breath and suddenly felt a little lonely again.

Sure enough, people's habits will be used.

Although Yang Jian always said that he doted on Nezha too much, but who would know between each other, in fact, the person who is more favored is himself.

After lunch, Ao Shuang went back to the room to take a nap because he didn't have a good rest. When he woke up, it was already dark, and he sat on the bed in a daze for a while, then thought of what Chao Bo said.

Not suitable?What kind of inappropriate?Although I don't want to admit it, but Ao Bing has such abilities, and from any point of view, he will not be unsuitable to be the head of the family. So what does the other party mean by this sentence?

Holding his head, the more he thought about it, the more he had a headache, until the empty stomach wall began to shrink. Ao Ting looked at the time and found that it was already past midnight, and there was probably no one in the kitchen at this time.

He stood up and put on some clothes. It was already summer, and the weather was hot and humid. Even if he didn’t wear a coat, he wouldn’t catch a cold. He walked outside and found that his entourage was dozing off on the table. After thinking about it, Ao The twins didn't wake up the other party, but opened the door by themselves and walked out lightly.

At night, the Ao family’s mansion is always lit like daylight. This is a habit left over from the fire 30 years ago. Ao Shuang didn’t even need to hold a lamp, and it was bright and quiet along the way.

When bypassing the corridors of the front and back halls, Ao Ting turned his head and looked at the aisle leading to Ao Bing's room. He felt that he had something to say to the other party.

But he had no way to speak, no direction, and even more embarrassment.

With her toes tilted to the side, and when Ao Twin walked up the steps with a thumping heart, the light in Ao Bing's room was already off.

He lowered his head and rolled the pebbles under his feet, pursed his lips and gave a wry smile, the moment he turned around and wanted to leave.

The wooden door of the room opened, and Ao Bing came out of the room without taking anything, and just walked towards the south of the manor empty-handed.

Although the Ao family's manor is very large, it is actually in the shape of a crescent moon as a whole, because the southwest corner is a trench surrounded by the manor. What can Ao Bing do there in the middle of the night?

Ao Twin thought about it for a long time but couldn't find an answer. After the opponent's back disappeared through the arch, his body followed him before thinking. He didn't dare to get too close, because Ao Bing's martial arts is very good, but there are people in Ao's family even at night Patrol, the sound of Ao Twin's footsteps was mixed in, and it was covered up for a while.

When Ao Bing walked further and further away, and even the last bit of light disappeared, Ao Twin stared at the darkness with his heart pounding. He even wanted to call out to him, because if he went there, he would be swallowed by the night. Know why you have this thought.

But when Ao Shuang stretched out his hand, Ao Bing stopped on the sandy beach beside the trench, and the cold tide beat the fine sand one after another. He stood there like a fairy melting into the moonlight, his white robe lifted and fell. , the sound of being stirred by the wind came drumming.

Ao Twin looks a little crazy, now Ao Bing is like Ao Guang when he was young, but Ao Bing has lost his arrogance and coldness, he is gentler and softer than Ao Guang at any time Ao Twin has seen, It's like a full moon within reach.

Ao Shuang, who was immersed in her own thoughts, did not see the change of the water pattern in the trench. When the water droplets splashed and the tide receded, a figure emerged from the sea.

Seeing that figure, Ao Bing ran up immediately, the other person took two steps, suddenly his feet softened, and then threw himself on Ao Bing, because the distance was too far, Ao Twin couldn't see the other person's face clearly, and didn't know this guy Who is it.

All he knew was that the man was sitting in the water with Ao Bing in his arms, his wet arms tightly wrapped around him, and when Ao Bing put his hands on his forehead, the man tilted his head and opened his mouth to cover Ao Bing's lips.

The sea was shimmering under the moon, and the waves were like dusk. Ao Shuang stood on the spot, clutching her clothes tightly, with two figures in her eyes, kissing inseparably.

He heard the sound of fireworks exploding, saw the rainbow-like light, and the deep meaning of Chao Bo's words swirled in his mind, which made him dizzy and at a loss for a moment.

——To be continued——

Next chapter: What has Nezha learned from visiting the dock at night, Ao Shuang discovered Ao Bing's secret, and whether the Ao family's conflict will resume.

Nezha: Why do my relatives have to be watched every time? !

*One catty in the Sui Dynasty was 680g. A phoenix crown unearthed from an ancient tomb in the Tang Dynasty weighed 800g. You can imagine the weight:-D
