Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord

Baochai guessed at least one thing wrong.

Although Xue Pan really wanted to make a fuss about Bo Yang's birthday, he wanted to sit down with Bo Yang and talk about himself.After all, the number of times he talked to Bo Yang in the past two years can be counted on ten fingers.If Bo Yang didn't come, he wouldn't dare to go unless he could find a reason to come.Because it is rare, every time we get along is precious.

If there is a big banquet and people come and go, it is naturally not easy to get close.

When Xue Pan came back from the store at night, he was surprised and delighted when he heard that Bo Yang had come.He greeted Aunt Xue, looking a little out of his mind.Aunt Xue was amused when she saw this, "Look at you, it looks like a needle was put in my cushion. Originally, I wanted to discuss with you and let Brother Yang celebrate my birthday at our house. Since you can't sit still..."

"Is what Mom said true? Brother Yang agreed?" Xue Pan asked immediately.

"What you said, if he doesn't agree, how can I force it?" Aunt Xue said, "I just think it's a rare one, so it's better to do it big, but Brother Yang is not very willing, so go back and persuade him."

Xue Pan laughed and said, "Since Brother Yang doesn't like it, let's just get together at home. Don't worry, mom, leave this matter to me. Even if it's just family members, it will definitely be lively. How about it?"

"Let's talk about the regulations first, and see if it's feasible." Aunt Xue said.

Xue Pan said, "The last time I went to Haining with people, I saw the boats going out to sea. I'm afraid it's not as big as our garden, and the three-story building is high. I heard that even if you walk on the sea, it is safe. I Looking at it interesting, Yangren found a small one, half of the garden is not there, there is always a yard as big as one. When the time comes, it will be placed on the lake behind, and there will be wine on it, and then a group of ladies will be invited. Ban Xiaoxi, what do you think mom?"

"It's lively." Aunt Xue couldn't help being very interested when she heard the words, "It's really such a big boat, how many things does it have to hold?"

"It's not easy to go out to sea once. Naturally, the more things you bring, the better. Besides, the sea is stormy, and the bigger the boat, the less likely it will be damaged." Xue Pan said, "I heard that there are bigger ones on the western side, so I want to go. Get acquainted."

Aunt Xue heard the words and said hurriedly, "Where are you going? I haven't seen you staying at home a few times in the past two years. That's all. I can't stop you from running around for the little business at home. The wind on the sea is rough. The waves are big, if something happens for a while, the sky should not make the earth not work, who do you want me and your sister to rely on?"

"Mom, that's a bad word." Baochai was sitting on the side doing needlework. Hearing the words, he quickly opened his mouth to smooth things over, "My brother hasn't left the house yet, so why don't you say these things?" He also said to Xue Pan, "Isn't my brother going? Have you seen Brother Yang?"

Xue Pan touched his nose and had no choice but to back out.Coming out of Aunt Xue's yard, he couldn't hold back the excitement on his face anymore, and even his footsteps became brisk, and he was no longer as calm as before.He walked forward for a while, faster and faster, and finally started to run.

Xingnu ran behind for a while before realizing that my uncle couldn't wait to see Uncle Bai.Panting for breath, he followed for a while, seeing that Xue Pan was running faster and faster and seemed not tired at all, so he gave up and walked slowly behind.

Anyway, when the uncle sees Uncle Bai, he doesn't need to wait on him.

When he was about to reach the place, Xue Pan's pace slowed down again, from running to walking, and from walking to pacing in place.Not only was it a little bit of a homely feeling, but it also felt that it was not appropriate for me to run in so out of breath.

He waited at the same place for a while, seeing Xingnu's late arrival, he couldn't help scolding, "Where did you go for a walk, why did you come here?"

Xingnu was startled, and quickly walked over, "Why is uncle still here?"

Xue Pan glared at him, making sure that his breath had calmed down, checked his clothes, straightened his hair, and then asked Xing Nu, "Is there anything wrong with me?"

"No." Xingnu looked at it once, and said in affirmation.Smiling secretly in his heart, he wondered why he hadn't entered for such a long time, but it turned out that it was Uncle Bai who was abrupt.

Xue Pan's various behaviors in front of Bo Yang, and Xing Nu who was by his side naturally noticed all kinds of behaviors, but she didn't feel that there was anything wrong.A character like Uncle Bai should naturally be treated with caution, even the slightest bit of disrespect would be rude to him.

Xue Pan tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, walked into the Moon Gate with his head upright, and saw Bo Yang standing under the eaves, watching Xuan'er tidy up his things.Hearing the sound, he turned his head.

A few years ago, he had been born very well. Now that he is old, his appearance and stature have completely grown. Standing there and looking at his back, he looks as tall and straight as a pine tree, with a slender stature and a well-proportioned physique.Turning his head around, revealing that handsome, indescribable face, one subconsciously breathes lightly, as if a little movement would disturb him.

Xue Pan was originally full of words to say, but now he stood at the door and looked at Bo Yang, but his mind became blank again, and he just stared blankly.

Bo Yang was also looking at him.Xue Pan is 16 years old this year, exactly the same age every day. It has been two months since the two met last time, and he seems to have grown taller again.

In the past two years, Bo Yang's stature has grown as long as a stick, and now he is about 1.7 meters five, which is not bad in terms of his body.After two years and then jumping up again, there may be hope for 1.8 meters.But Xue Pan was half a head taller than him two years ago, and now he is only taller.

Moreover, in the past two years, he has undergone a lot of exercise and walked around with new friends. While increasing his knowledge, he also let the wind and frost temper his body to become stronger. His skin was a little darker, but the original youthful The youthfulness and innocence are completely covered up, replaced by the firm lines of young people.

Dressed in a brocade suit, with white jade hanging from his waist, and with a tall and straight figure, he already looks like a qualified head of the family, except for the excessively bright light in his eyes, which adds a bit of honesty to the whole person for no reason.

"What are you doing standing there stupidly, don't you know me?" After a while, it was still Bo Yang who spoke first.

Xue Pan seemed to have been pressed some button, walked towards him with big strides, looked him up again face to face, and then said with a smile, "Brother Yang, you are here."

Because he walked too fast, he was sweating profusely in the October weather.Bo Yang looked at it twice, but still couldn't hold back and took out his handkerchief, "Look at the sweat on your head, wipe it off."

Xue Pan nodded when he heard the words, but instead of reaching out to take the handkerchief, he lowered his head.

He was originally taller than Bo Yang, but when he bowed his head like this, he seemed a little aggrieved for no reason.Bo Yang paused, but finally wiped it for him.

Xue Pan raised his head again, with a smile on his face, obviously on purpose.But Bo Yang didn't mean to reprimand him, he just stuffed the handkerchief into his hand, "I'll send you off." Then he turned and went in.

Xue Pan quickly followed.Xingnu looked at the backs of the two, and went to help Xuan'er with a very colorful look.

Although the number of times the two met and talked in the past two years was very few, but after wiping his sweat just now, Xue Pan seemed to have adjusted his state to two years ago in a second, so he squeezed and sat down next to Bo Yang very naturally. , Ask him if there is anything missing, just tell yourself.Then I picked up some interesting things I met when I went out in the past two years, and the atmosphere did not seem dull.

In fact, Bo Yang knew all these things.

Although he said to let Xue Pan grow up by himself, it is impossible to really ignore it.He would go to investigate the new friends Xue Pan made, and he naturally knew about Xue Pan's every itinerary.Although they haven't met each other, he knows everything that happened in the past two years.

Xue Pan is not an idiot, and he may not be able to detect it at first, but after guessing from Liu Xianglian's incident that Bo Yang has been secretly helping him, he became more sensitive to this aspect. Yang had indeed been secretly paying attention to himself.Although he didn't puncture it, he was more calm in his heart.Seeing Bo Yang now is the only way to get close so naturally.

However, both of them kept this matter in their hearts and did not expose it.

After all, after two years, there were still few topics between the two of them, so after a while, they talked about Bo Yang's birthday.Xue Pan said, "Mom said Brother Yang is going to celebrate his birthday at our house, so let me take care of things. There hasn't been any lively things at home for a long time, and she is very caring."

"Don't spend too much money." Bo Yang told him again.

Xue Pan waved his hand, "I'm ready, don't worry Brother Yang." After a pause, he said, "It's just that I haven't figured out what dishes to use at that time. Some."

Bo Yang said, "The time is just right, it's enough to get some wild game from the mountains."

Xue Pan's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he immediately had an idea, "They came to me a few days ago and said they wanted to go hunting. I thought it was not interesting, so I refused. Why don't we go to the mountains to hunt some game by ourselves, regardless of what we can hunt? What do you get, it's better than buying from others. What do you think, Brother Yang?"

Bo Yang turned his head and glanced at him, but he wasn't thinking about Xue Pan's proposal, but was thinking about a small detail: it's been a while since we met, Xue Pan called him several times, and he was always called Brother Yang.It sounds like it is no different from the old Brother Yang, only with the intimate Erhua tone, but the feeling is quite different.

At this time, it is only when elders call them juniors, or between close friends who are close in age.

Because the two have passed the ages, Xue Pan respects and loves Bo Yang very much in his heart, so he used to call him Brother Yang, treating him like an elder brother.So now this change is very subtle.
