antique masters in modern times

Murong Hui once heard from his uncle that under certain special circumstances, men are led by the small head, and rationality gives way to impulsiveness.

He felt that he was in a special situation right now.

Knowing that Yan You has a slow personality, she has already decided to impress him bit by bit.Now, he is extremely eager to express all his surging emotions immediately.Even go a step further, express it directly with actions.

Thoughts like these clamored wildly and circled endlessly.Murong Hui had no choice but to mobilize his remaining rationality to suppress it tightly, so he didn't make any extraordinary moves.

Yan You didn't know that he was fighting with heaven and man in his heart. Seeing his face getting weirder and weirder, he thought it was because of the heat: "Murong, are you okay? Do you want me to lower the water temperature for you?"

Without waiting for Murong Hui to nod, while speaking, he walked towards the water dragon.

Seeing him approaching him again, Murong smiled wryly in frustration, he really came here for whatever he was afraid of, could it be that Taishang Laojun deliberately embarrassed him, in order to punish him for stealing Laojun's tribute peaches when he was a child.

One step, two steps, three steps... The distance between each other gradually narrowed, and Murong Hui's mind gradually went blank, not daring to think whether he would really do something ridiculous.

In the past, when friends shared embarrassing stories, he always laughed at those who would be foolish and impulsive when they saw the girl they liked.It was only after I changed myself that I realized that longing together and facing the person who was thinking about it, I really couldn't pretend to be indifferent.

The bathroom wasn't too small, but Murong Hui was sitting right under the Dragon's Throat, and if Yan You wanted to adjust the temperature, he had to approach him naturally.

When Yan You came within reach, Murong Gray slowly stretched out his hand like sleepwalking, feeling a little apprehensive but full of anticipation.

Yan You didn't notice it at all, he didn't even notice that Murong Hui's hand was already on his waist.

My mind was steaming like water vapor, and when I was about to get drunk, suddenly, something knocked the half-closed screen window completely open, and then a group of colorful things flew in chirping: "The devil has entered the village!" Run away! Run away!"

As soon as the long wind blows, the humidity and heat in the room suddenly drops a lot.Murong Hui was like waking up from a dream, and quickly withdrew his hand as if he had been scalded.

With [-]% shame and [-]% rejoicing, he hugged the scholar who could not be said to be a disruptor or a rescuer, and pulled the dumb hair lightly and violently: "What are you screaming for!"

The scholar was so frightened that his voice changed his tone, and he had no time to pay attention to the little master's intentions to cherish the most cherished dumbo, and screamed: "A big horse monkey came out of the embroidery room!"

Hearing its yelling, Yan You thought that he had let some animal in because he was too hasty to close the courtyard door just now.He twisted the valve that was halfway pulled out, and ran out in a hurry.

Murong Hui was just about to teach the scholar a few more words, when a thick water dragon suddenly fell from the sky, pouring him crystal clear and cool in an instant.One person and one bird huddled together, and both shuddered.

However, the impulsiveness that is unspeakable has shrunk because of this, and it has been a blessing in disguise.

Wiping the drops of water off his face, Murong Hui spit out the poured water, and then squeezed the scholar hard, his eyes were complicated, he didn't know what he was thinking.After a while, he turned off the water valve, wiped his body indiscriminately, and began to get dressed.

After a while, Yanyou walked back to the bathroom strangely, holding something in his arms: "Is there nothing outside?"

Seeing the things in his hands clearly, the scholar who was throwing water suddenly frowned, and started screaming again: "Bad guy! Natural enemy! Big horse monkey!"

Only then did Yan You understand: "It turned out that I was afraid of cats. Don't worry, cats are very small and well-behaved, and won't bite you."

Before the kitten curled up in the bag and fell asleep, Yanyou didn't let it out.It is estimated that he just woke up, pulled out his bag and jumped off the dining table, which frightened the scholar.

Seeing that the scholar was still timid, he looked at the kitten very vigilantly. In order to avoid similar farces from time to time at home, Yan You put the cat in front of the scholar and coaxed, "Look, it really won't bite you."

The scholar hurriedly jumped on top of Murong Hui's head, stared at the kitten covetously, and studied it for a while with great vigor.

Seeing it walking clumsily, staggering on the wet tiled floor from time to time, not possessing the majesty that a natural enemy should have at all, it suddenly regained its air and said contemptuously: "The big horse monkey is an idiot!"

The clingy kitten was put down on the ground, and was still struggling to pull the owner's trouser legs, begging him to hug him again.The scholar's voice attracted his attention, and he tilted his head curiously to look at this colorful, rooster-like but not big enough animal.

The scholar was so stared at by it that his heart was trembling, and he quietly retracted the top of Murong Hui's head. Without any complacency, he muttered with a lack of confidence: "I opened this road, and I built this house. Go away!"

The cat couldn't understand, but Yan You was aroused, and looked at Murong Hui who was buttoning up his buttons: "Why did you help me build a house?"

Once the embarrassment was gone, Murong Hui returned to his usual calm expression.Except that his eyes were a little flustered, he couldn't see how embarrassed he was just now: "Xiaoyan, I signed a contract with grandma."

"Contract?" Yan You suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"wait."

Murong Hui also didn't care about drying his hair, so he randomly found a towel to wrap it up, and ran upstairs excitedly.After a while, he came down with a document and handed it to Yan You who was sitting on the sofa: "I lived in your house for the past two years when I was studying abroad, and the money for building the house was converted into rent. Look, it is clearly written in it. "

He summed up the essence of the entire contract in one sentence.Yanyou hastily scanned the four or five pages of documents, and his eyes were on "In accordance with the principle of repairing and throwing away, all the renovation activities carried out by Party B (Murong Hui) in Party A (Yanjia) will not be in the future. If it will be dealt with separately, it will be converted into rent and paid to Party A." There was a pause on this item, and there was a sudden silence.

Murong Hui had already planned to debate with Yan You for [-] rounds on the theme of what is "the food that comes from you", but now Yan You's reaction was completely unexpected.It felt like throwing a fist with all its strength but it was empty, coupled with the accident in the bathroom just now, it made him very uneasy: "Xiaoyan, do you think there is any imperfection?"

After a long silence, Yan Youfang asked suspiciously, "Why do you help me so many times?"

Although angry at the other party's assertion, the result is beneficial to oneself.Recalling that Murong Hui paid out money to settle the greedy stall owner when they first met, Yan You couldn't help wondering: Murong Hui is not the kind of person who abuses kindness, why does he help himself over and over again?This affection has already far exceeded the scope of an ordinary friend.

His rare confused expression seemed particularly innocent, and Murong Hui was ready to move again when he saw it.If the timing was more mature, if the emotion was more profound, he would definitely confess his feelings without hesitation.

But now—hold back, hold back, it's not the best time, and rashly making a move will only spoil the good situation that has been painstakingly created and scare people away.

Murong Hui regretfully suppressed some restless thoughts, and said seriously: "This is not to help you, but I want to find a comfortable and economical place to spend the rest of my study abroad time. You see, I originally lived in a hotel , It costs eight yuan a day, and it will cost nearly 3000 yuan a year. Tentatively, I will study abroad for two years, so it will be 6000 yuan. And I will sponsor you to build this house, plus new furniture, and it only costs I earned more than 5000. In the end, I earned it.”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but add a sentence in his heart: Who cares whether he makes money or not, the most important thing is to be able to get along with Xiaoyan day and night.Xiaoyan is soft-hearted and emotional, as long as she accumulates enough good feelings over time, she will definitely not be able to fly out of her palm!

Before, because he was afraid that Yanyou would not accept it, he chose to hide it, and coaxed Grandma Luo to move in first while others were out, so as to avoid another change when things came to an end.It now appears that this decision was completely correct.Xiaoyan's expression gradually eased, she must have chosen to compromise.Great, happy life is about to begin!

Murong Hui, who was imagining a better life in the future, suddenly heard Yan You say: "Murong, I understand your kindness."

--what? !

Before Murong Hui could recover from the sudden bombshell, Yan You said again: "You, like Zhu Dao, both want to help me. The contract is just to save my face, but I can't be so peaceful. I accept things that don’t belong to me. Now I have a scholarship for living expenses, and I work part-time with Professor Chen, so I should be able to earn enough money before you return to the United States. Don’t worry, I will definitely pay it back to you.”

--Same?After all, I am the most handsome in this generation of the Murong family, how can I be like the second senior brother who looks like a blessing baby in the New Year painting!Xiaoyan, stop there, let's talk about aesthetics aside from the issue of repayment!

Murong Hui was just about to pull someone away, when Yan You heard his grandma came back, but he had already left him to welcome him out.

Stuck with anger and anger, he suddenly ran back to the bathroom and pinched his flesh in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror: "It's still so thin, except for the muscles and no fat. How could it be like the second senior brother? Xiaoyan really likes to joke, so it's not good. OK."

Yanyou came back early, making grandma so happy from ear to ear, she was never so happy even on the day of moving.

While picking vegetables, she chattered with her grandson: She wanted to wait for her grandson to come back and move to a new house together, but she couldn't resist Murong Hui's persuasion.Said that Xiaoyan will have some time to go back to the city, if he knows that the house will be built ahead of time, he will definitely be willing to let grandma live in and enjoy the blessings early.You are not used to living in a stair house. When building the house, a large room was specially reserved behind the living room. The window is facing the flower bed, which is specially prepared for you.

Yan You had learned Murong Hui's eloquence a long time ago, even Xie Laoer and Wang Bao's old Jianghu couldn't stand that mouth, but he didn't expect that he was also very good at coaxing old people.Grandma praised him like a flower just now, if he hadn't known about the Lord's temper, Yan You would have thought that grandma was talking about a virtuous daughter-in-law.

After a while, the food was on the table, and Yan You invited the nervous sister Xiu down to have a meal together.She didn't reveal her identity, she just said that someone she met outside came to visit her, and she stopped by for a meal.Grandma thought it was some teacher's daughter-in-law, but Zhang Luo was very enthusiastic, which made sister Xiu even more restless.

After eating without taste, sister Xiu insisted on washing the dishes.Yan You held down the grandma who still wanted to persuade, picked up the plate by himself, and entered the kitchen together.

Sister Xiu thought that the young man would have to persuade herself to tell about the elder sister again, and she was very upset and embarrassed.

But from the beginning to the end, Yan You didn't say a word.

It wasn't until the last bowl was wiped off the water stains and put into a brand new cabinet that Yan You said lightly: "This kind of family gathering is normal for us, but for the girl who was abducted by your so-called big sister , but it is a luxury that only appears in dreams. Sister Xiu, you also have parents. Comparing your heart with your heart, can you really let it go and hurt yourself and other innocent women?"

Hearing this, Sister Xiu's face paled immediately, she couldn't help but took two steps back, leaned against the pool and shook her head repeatedly, as if she wanted to explain something, but couldn't say a word.

Some words are enough to stop.Yan You didn't say anything more, went back to the living room to sit with grandma for a while, and then sent the old man who wanted to do needlework into the bedroom.After finishing all this, when he went back upstairs, he saw Sister Xiu in the previous room as expected.

At this time, she was calmer than before, but her face was still ugly: "What do you mean by other girls?"

When she said this, Yan You felt a little strange: "Your eldest sister only kidnapped you, and no one else?"

Sister Xiu nodded with difficulty: "She is my eldest sister-in-law. According to local customs, I call her eldest sister... I became a widow in the third year after I married into her family, but I didn't get married after that, and I still treat my husband's family as my relatives." The eldest sister started working as a nanny last year. This year, she sent a message that she could earn more money than doing farm work in the countryside, but it was easier. She asked me to come and see the world, so I came out. Unexpectedly..."

She suddenly shed tears without warning, and quickly wiped them away: "I didn't expect her to turn bad. When we first met, I could barely recognize her. She was dressed like a bad woman in a movie, and she opened her mouth. Asked me if I wanted to go abroad, and said that my own family should be at ease when doing business. I asked her what kind of business, she smiled, and called a man and a woman to perform in public..."

Recalling that scene, she blushed and her hands trembled slightly, but it was because of anger: "I don't want to watch it, but she said it's a business and forced me to learn it. I'm her sister-in-law, how can she It can be like this... I don’t want to, so she let people watch me, follow me wherever I go, and say that I will wait until I figure it out. I observed it for several days, until I sneaked out this morning when the guards were on shift, But I was caught by younger brother Murong's men again... I thought she only harmed me, could there be others?"

"Besides you, of course there are other innocent victims."

The one who spoke was Murong Hui who entered the door without knowing when.

Walking up to Sister Xiu, he asked solemnly, "Is your late husband's family name Qi?"

Sister Xiu nodded helplessly.

"Before liberation, the Qi family was the elders of the Anxiang Sect. They were responsible for opening the door—that is, abducting women and forcing them into prostitution. They are very good at training newcomers, so they are very successful in this sect. My grandfather doesn't like this business. Before inheriting the position of Patriarch, he proposed several times to clear the Anxiangmen out of the ranks. But because the interests of all parties were involved, he couldn't do anything, so he had to put it aside for the time being."

"Until the eve of liberation, Jiuliu was in decline. Many people were afraid of being liquidated, so they withdrew from the arena and lived their lives. Before leaving Huaxia, my grandfather took the opportunity to force the then master of the Anxiang Sect to disband the sect. The subordinates have also been scattered since then. Unexpectedly, the Qi family is very nostalgic, and decades have passed, and they have started to return to their old business."

Speaking sarcastically at this point, Murong Hui looked at Sister Xiu, who was staggering at the hearing, with sharp eyes: "Your sister-in-law didn't suddenly become bad, but she knew these ways since she was a child. And she came out of the blue, and found a new way to follow the example of the past. The way of selling piglets is to smuggle Chinese women abroad, so they have not been caught for a long time. But I don't know, why did she let you, an outsider, participate in it?"
