from the crane

It was getting late, and the lights outside the house were already on. Jiang Yao looked at Jiang Yin with her chin on her hands, feeling a little bored.

At first, she could still watch her brother's jokes, but after a long time, her stomach was empty, and she wanted to leave but was afraid that Mr. Lin would stop him.

Jiang Yin had just fed the injured man a few spoonfuls of water, and when he was about to bid farewell to Mr. Lin and rush to eat, the man slowly opened his eyes.

"Mr. Lin, he's awake!"

Hearing that Jiang Yao also ran over, Mr. Lin looked at him and asked, "Dare to ask your honorable name?"

It took a long time for the man to speak slowly. It seemed that the injury was too serious, his throat was hurt, and his voice was hoarse, and he couldn't hear it without careful distinction.

Jiang Yin repeated several times in her heart before she spoke, "Luo Shuang?"

Nodding was a confirmation, but exhausted his strength, Mr. Lin stood up and said to him, "Rest, it's safe here."

Jiang Yao looked at Jiang Yin and then at Mr. Lin and said, "Third brother, Mr. Lin, it's you time now, it's time to eat."

"You little girl is thinking about the plate of crab cakes left this morning, and you said you are not greedy." Although Jiang Yin said so, he also walked out quickly and said goodbye to Mr. Lin.

The two walked out of the bamboo garden with Mr. Lin's lantern. Jiang Yao dragged Jiang Yin to her own yard.

He knew that this girl was afraid of the dark, so he was embarrassed to say so and insisted on staying with her by himself.

Jiang Yin didn't answer until she said the prayer awkwardly.

The autumn wind was rustling, and the two walked forward side by side. Jiang Yao stared at the front with serious eyes, held the lamp handle tightly and said, "What did that person say just now, is your name right?"

"Luo Shuang, um, he nodded, it should be his name." Jiang Yin touched his chin and guessed casually, "I just don't know which two words it is."

"Surnamed Luo? It should not be a son of any family, maybe a Taoist priest."

"You're really interested. If you ask him tomorrow, you'll know whether he's a nobleman or a wandering Taoist priest."

"I really want to ask, but it's too late to see off my second brother tomorrow."

"Send Jiang Wei?" Jiang Yin was taken aback when he heard this, and asked again, "Is he a general?"

"That's not true, it's even more prestigious than my mother. I have [-] elite soldiers who will take office tomorrow." Jiang Yao looked at him with a smile, and said with some complacency, "It's just that it's too far away from our Changhuan, and from the big brother's place." Also far."

"Where is he going? It won't be the northwest to quell the war."

Jiang Yin's words were sour, but it wasn't all jealousy.

The whole Chang Huan knew that there was a third son of the Jiang family who was not doing his job properly. He was having fun all day long, talking about songs and poems. Now that Jiang Wei has won the title of general again, Jiang Yin can already imagine those seven aunts and eight women poking his back. screen.

"I think you are just jealous. The eldest brother is the prefect of Syracuse, and the second brother is the general of Yingzhou. You are the least motivated. You can't do well in literature and martial arts." Jiang Yao stuck out her tongue and laughed deliberately, "After the Mid-Autumn Festival, mother Just take me to the military camp, then you will be left alone at home, you can have fun by yourself."

"You girl, I... I don't want to make progress. I hate to be famous. I want to be like Mr. Lin, not asking about the world, but looking for immortals."

"Excuse, excuse." Jiang Yao quickly ran a few steps into the courtyard gate, and Jiang Yin followed.

Dinner was served in the small kitchen, and after the two had eaten, Jiang Yin went to the west wing.

"Are you going to see your second brother off tomorrow?" Jiang Yao asked him before closing the door.

Jiang Yin looked at her, closed the door expressionlessly, Jiang Yao shook her head, and went back to her room.

"When you arrive in Yingzhou, pay attention to your health. Although it is warmer than Changhuan, don't be negligent."

Jiang Wei nodded solemnly, looked at Mrs. Jiang with burning eyes and said, "I know, mother."

"You must take care of yourself, leave home, and be careful in everything."

Mrs. Jiang was still a little worried about her child, so she gave a few words to the accompanying servants. Looking at the grown-up young man, she couldn't help feeling reluctant to part with her. She wanted to say something but felt too nasty, so she finally patted shoulders, and sighed silently.

Standing next to Mrs. Jiang, Jiang Yao didn't have so many thoughts, she handed the sachet to Jiang Wei with a smile on her face, pulled his sleeve and whispered jokes, the time was up, Jiang Wei rubbed her soft Hair said softly, "Take care of yourself and stop messing around all the time."

Jiang Yao nodded, seeing that her brother was about to leave, she still couldn't help holding him and chattering, "Second brother should send more letters when he arrives in Yingzhou. After you leave, there will only be me and Jiang Sansan at home. He always bullies Me, I hate him the most."

This girl was talking nonsense again, Mrs. Jiang chuckled, and suddenly remembered the so-called "Jiang Sansan", she looked around, a trace of doubt appeared on her face.

"Why didn't Jiang Yin come here, and ran out to play like crazy again, right? What a jerk."

"That's right, why doesn't third brother come to see off second brother?"

Jiang Yao stuck out her tongue to signal Jiang Wei to turn around, Jiang Wei pursed her lips, turned around and saw Jiang Yin hiding behind the carriage, Jiang Yin touched her head a little embarrassed, strode out and said to him awkwardly, "Second brother, Bon Voyage."

"Take care." Jiang Wei got on the horse, tightened the reins, and with the sound of hissing, she took the whip and went away. Everyone waved goodbye, and Jiang Yao quietly came behind Jiang Yin with blinking eyes, and whispered, "Aren't you not coming?" ?”

"I, I suddenly changed my mind." Jiang Yin looked down at Jiang Yao, deliberately made a face to scare her, but the little girl didn't like this, turned her head and shouted "Mother".

"I haven't seen you since I came back from the school. Chen Hongzi told me a few days ago that you went to the bar to drink again. Jiang Yin, what are you doing?"

"Here, I'm just going to send books and paintings to Aruina, she likes those things." Jiang Yin lowered her head and explained in a low voice.

Jiang Yao felt that the words were wrong, looked at her mother and then at her third brother, and consciously found an excuse to leave.

"Seldom go there from now on! From tomorrow on, you will copy the Five Classics every day and send them to me every night. Mister can't control you, can't I?"

Mrs. Jiang snorted coldly, hating iron for being weak, "You should save me some trouble, don't tease cats and dogs all day long, and make all kinds of things happen to me."

Jiang Yin stopped talking in a muffled voice. Mrs. Jiang glanced at him and turned to leave. Jiang Yin looked at her back and muttered a few words.

Ah Chun happened to pass by here, and seeing his young master staying there, he stepped forward and said softly, "Third young master, Mr. Lin just asked you to go to Lin Han Academy to buy pine ink."

"Mr. Lin wants to draw again?" Jiang Yin raised his head, and suddenly his eyes lit up. The other begonias beside Ah Chun's temples were very playful. I couldn't help cursing, "You have committed your old problem again, why is your sister not a sister? If Mrs. Jiang sees this, you will be beaten again."

"You're trying to scare me by saying these things again. I think this flower is beautiful when I see it. My dear sister, just tell me where I got it, okay?"

"Hey, I really can't say enough about you. The begonias are all in bloom at Husi's side. My sister went out to do errands today and picked a few for me."

"That's good, I happened to be looking for Arina."

Jiang Yin smiled, and walked out, Ah Chun called him, but he didn't turn back, and finally the girl sighed softly, but there was nothing she could do.

Leaving Fu Jiang Yin's heart lightened for a while. He picked up ink at Lin Han Academy and was about to go to Husi when he happened to see his younger sister talking with Yu Wucuo. How did you abandon me?"

Jiang Yao turned her head abruptly, seeing that it was Jiang Yin, she couldn't help but annoyed, "You scared me to death."

"Master Jiang, you just came out of the academy?" Yu Wucuo said as if seeing Song Yanmo in Jiang Yin's hand and suddenly remembered something, "Oh, I have something to talk to you about today."

Jiang Yin looked up at Yu Wucuo and asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"
