Shen Ji carefully teased his bay red horse, wishing to get acquainted with him right away - when he thought that he would be like the men around him in the future, with a chic posture, a fast horse and a whip, and a comfortable appearance in the market or in the suburbs with ease, he felt in his heart The villain was almost overjoyed, dancing and dancing non-stop.

Hearing Sun Zhihai's explanation, Shen Ji was puzzled for a moment: Why does it sound like you and Brother Six are on good terms now?Wasn't it an inextricable fight before?Do we have to get along for a long time, shake hands and make peace?

"Long time no see Sixth Brother. Is he busy recently?" Shen Ji asked curiously. Before, Wu You went to the medical clinic every now and then to talk to him, but in the past half a month, he seemed to have disappeared.

Sun Zhihai clenched his fist and put it to his mouth, coughed hard, and smiled unnaturally: "What is he busy with... Oh, these days are really busy these days, the old general's [-]th birthday is coming, your sixth brother is helping to prepare Well, Xiao Ji wants to see him? Brother Huihui will tell you."

Shen Ji hastily declined: "Don't, Big Brother Sun, since Sixth Brother is busy, don't bother him. Even if I miss him, he doesn't have any important things to do. It's important to do business."

After a pause, he sighed and said: "Second brother has not seen for a long time. It seems that the old general's birthday is indeed very important and busy. It is the top priority in Hezhou City."

When Jiang Feng heard Shen Ji mentioning Zuo Zhen, he felt very sorry.After all, the second brother Zuo has guarded Xiaoliu for so many years, cared for him silently for so many years, and finally waited for him to grow up. Who knew that the first time he took him out for training, he provoked Sun Zhihai back...the two of them were not acquainted with each other. , fighting back and forth and fighting became enemies of joy!Poor second brother Zuo, ten years of painstaking efforts were wasted, and his affection was lost to a ruffian who killed halfway...

——However, it's really hard to say about the relationship, and it's not that whoever pays more will win. If the heart is biased, people can't get it right.But the second brother made a mistake because of this: his heart had long been inclined towards the sixth brother, but he was stubbornly carrying on being his second brother, and he failed to express his heart earlier. respect him as a brother.

When Sun Zhihai heard that "Second Brother", he didn't smile so eagerly, and he replied flatly: "That's right, the old general is highly respected, and his birthday must be an event that attracts the attention of the whole city, so nothing can go wrong. "

Shen Ji pulled the rein and said longingly: "I haven't seen it before, and I don't know what kind of lively style it is. Hey Brother Sun, aren't you here to buy a horse? Hurry up and choose it. A lot of people have been selected." Shen Ji glanced back and quickly reminded Sun Zhihai.

"Excuse me first, Xiao Ji hastened to ask your third brother to teach you how to ride a horse, and you will be counted as one of the horse races in the countryside." Sun Zhihai remembered the main purpose of coming today, said goodbye and left in a hurry.

Jiang Feng took his own horse and walked side by side with the bay red horse. He carefully instructed Shen Ji: "You have to remember, when you meet an unfamiliar horse, a horse that recognizes its master and protects its master, or a violent horse, don't go away." Go and stand behind them, lest they lose their temper and kick you; if you have to get close, stand in front of them."

"Understood, if you get kicked, your leg will definitely be broken. Fortunately, this horse doesn't seem to lose its temper easily. Third brother, look into his eyes, I always feel that he is smiling, hahaha... What a smart horse!" Shen Ji followed suit, standing a few steps ahead of the left front of the horse like Jiang Feng, pulling the rein gently, looking back at the horse's expression from time to time.

Jiang Feng felt very fortunate in his heart, sincerely grateful.Although he really spent a lot of effort and used a lot of skills to get Shen Ji to nod, but now that the two of them can connect with each other and talk and laugh together, the painstaking effort spent before is definitely worth it.

"Okay, don't tease him. The master must also have the majesty of the master. Blind pampering will make the horse disobedient. Especially when riding, the attitude must be decisive and resolute, let him cooperate with you as soon as possible good."

Shen Ji smiled embarrassedly, stopped smiling and talking to the horse, and said sternly: "Third brother, my horse doesn't have a saddle and a stirrup, so I have to buy everything first before I can ride it?"

Jiang Feng looked around a few times, pointed at the horsewhip, and suggested: "There must be someone selling these at this racecourse, let's go over there and have a look."

By the time Shen Ji carefully selected the harness for his horse, and under the guidance of his third brother, he rode the horse back to Nancheng nervously and unfamiliarly, it was already dark.

"Xiaofei, are you tired? Are you hungry? I have wheat straw and soybeans at home, I hope you will like them." Shen Ji tossed and tossed all afternoon, but his interest was still high.His back is not as stiff as it was at the beginning, and he can occasionally reach out to stroke the necks of a few horses.

"Okay, come down and walk, there are many children inside, don't bump into old people and children before you are not familiar with them." Jiang Feng was very thoughtful, and as soon as he returned to the archway in the green brick courtyard, he taught Shen Ji to get off his horse and tighten his grip. Take the reins.

"Brother, brother, you are back, wow, is this your horse?" The group of children who had dealt with Shen Ji before, now they can stick to him and say a few words when they see him, Da Wu and Xiao Wu are even more clingy , often followed Shen Ji all the way home, and even had dinner several times.

Shen Ji smiled and introduced: "Yes, this is the horse my brother just bought, and his name is Xiaofei. It's so late, why don't you go home for dinner? The family should be in a hurry, go back quickly, and get up early tomorrow Play."

Xiao Wu tugged at the corner of Shen Ji's clothes, and reminded him worriedly: "Brother, be careful, there is a drunk man crying in front of you, it's scary, we just peeked at him, and he was still crying, you take Xiaofei Be careful."

Drunk crying?Hearing this, Jiang Feng frowned and then relaxed. He guessed that it was caused by the alcoholic young people in the back. He didn't hold too much alcohol, and when he drank too much, he started to go crazy. How long has he moved in? I've met him several times .

Shen Ji immediately teased the child pretending to be deep: "Then do you know why drunks cry?"

Xiao Wu immediately shook his head and asked curiously, "Why?" The rest of the children also raised their heads and waited for the answer.

"Ahem, let my brother tell you. It's not impossible to drink alcohol, but you must not drink too much. My brother heard that the drunkard ran out and drank a lot of wine because he didn't listen to his parents. He was beaten up by his parents, and he couldn't eat for three days!" Shen Ji squatted down, talking nonsense in a serious and vivid manner.

"Oh, so it's like this..." Child A.

"I think he must have been hurt to cry!" Child B.

"That's not it. He should cry when he is hungry and has no food. I will cry when I am hungry."

"..."

"You're talking nonsense, I won't play with you anymore!"

"I hate you, I don't want to play snowball fights with you tomorrow!"

"..."

A group of children argued furiously until their friendship fell apart again, and they went back to their respective homes angrily.

"Hahahahaha..." Shen Ji laughed so hard, amused by the innocence and straightforwardness of the children, Jiang Feng helplessly patted him on the shoulder, motioning for him to put it down.

The two of them walked back slowly with the horse, and after walking not far, they heard a man crying in pain and depression, his voice was already a little hoarse.

Shen Ji tugged at the third brother's sleeve, and said softly, "It sounds like he's been crying for a long time, why didn't anyone take him home?"

Jiang Feng wondered and guessed: "Maybe it's the policeman from the west yard. He does the same thing every time he gets drunk. His wife often gets angry and doesn't open the door for him."

"This, this is too much... Anyway, it's her husband, and it's so cold to let him cry at the door of the house, it's really... Sigh." Shen Ji had also heard a drunken man cry before, Fighting, but every time, their respective family members cursed and dragged them home in a hurry to teach them a lesson. After all, men still have face after they wake up.

Unexpectedly, when they walked around several courtyards and returned to the gate of Jiang Feng's house, the two of them saw that the crying man was curled up at the gate of Jiang Feng's house.

Shen Ji blinked and asked blankly: "Third brother, that person, that person fell at our door, did he go by mistake?"

Jiang Feng didn't answer, but quickly walked over with a sullen face, and Shen Ji quickly followed.

——Actually, Jiang Feng didn't recognize the person, but he recognized the horse next to him first!The black fat in his own hand neighed happily when he saw the white horse not far away.

The man was curled up on the eaves of the door, facing inwards, wrapped in a large azure cloak, crying in pain from time to time, it could be seen that he was tall.

Jiang Feng turned the person over and immediately frowned fiercely——

"Second, Second Brother?" Shen Ji was dumbfounded, looking at Zuo Zhen lying on the ground with his eyes closed and his face full of decadence and haggardness.

"Shen Ji, go and open the door. Let's help the second brother in first." Jiang Feng pulled Zuo Zhen up and supported him with his arms. Shen Ji hurriedly took out the key to open the door, and quickly walked a few steps in to light the lamp.

"Come on, let him sit on the back first. Third brother, go and heat up the kang and prepare some hot water. I'll take care of the second brother." Shen Ji touched Zuo Zhen's cold hands and feet and sighed. He had already been removed from the cloak wet with melting snow, and then stripped off his slightly wet cotton robe, and quickly wrapped him up with a wolfskin mattress and quilt.

"Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu, you, listen to me... you, listen to me... woo woo woo, I, I'm really, really... sincerely woo woo woo." Zuo Zhen's complexion was pale, his lips were chapped, and he leaned closer. From time to time, he could hear his painful whispers, Shen Ji listened to him for a long time, at first he was confused, but then he gradually understood.

"Second brother, don't think about it so much for now, you should have a good rest." Shen Ji felt extremely uncomfortable seeing the second brother who was the most cheerful, kind and eloquent, now turned into this appearance.

Jiang Feng ignited the kang fire, it burned well, and he added water to burn it before he came back.Seeing the lost and painful look of the second brother, and Shen Ji who was at a loss next to him, he punched the wall with a rare irritability——

"Third brother, what are you doing? Come here, are your hands itchy?" Shen Ji turned around when he heard the voice, and looked at Jiang Feng who was venting his anger on the wall, and his attention was immediately attracted.

"Do you understand?" Jiang Feng sat down next to Shen Ji, put his arms around him and asked without thinking.

Shen Ji nodded, and said sadly: "I probably know, but I haven't met Sixth Brother yet, so I don't know what he thinks. Third Brother, when did you know?"

Jiang Feng breathed out angrily, and said helplessly: "It happened many years ago. The second elder brother just started to take care of Xiao Liu. It was the task assigned to him by the nursing master. He is a senior and an elder brother. Naturally, there is nothing wrong with it. Later, Later, when Xiaoliu grew up, when he was about fifteen or sixteen years old, I discovered what the second brother was thinking, maybe it was because I was the same kind of person as him... In short, the second brother guarded Xiaoliu for many years, and later Even the eldest brother knew about it, and he strongly opposed—”

"Ah? Then you and me...?" Shen Ji couldn't sit still when he heard this. He thought of the probing eyes that his boss Zhou Bo had looked at him several times, and wondered if that was his objection?Did he make things difficult for the third brother?

Jiang Feng quickly comforted him: "It's nothing, the reason why the eldest brother objected to the second brother's liking for Xiao Liu was because Xiao Liu's father died in battle protecting the old general, and his mother... died of illness, so Xiao Liu is in the old general's heart." It is more or less named. If the second brother's thoughts on Xiaoliu are known, then the second brother will not be able to stand in the general's mansion, in the military camp, or even in Hezhou, so the eldest brother stopped it for the second brother's sake Good. Can you understand Xiao Ji?"

After Shen Ji thought hard, Zheng nodded: "I can understand, because the second brother has been with the sixth brother, if it gets out one day...cough cough, then the second brother will be pointed at his nose and scolded, after all He is so much older than the sixth brother."

After a pause, he was dissatisfied and complained:

"But Second Brother is obviously much better than Big Brother Sun. Second Brother is so nice. How long has Brother Sun only been here? Sigh..."

Jiang Feng reminded his daughter-in-law seriously: "Naturally, I also think that the second brother is good, and the person who can choose is your sixth brother. This matter needs to be resolved by the three of them, and it is not easy for others to intervene."

"Okay, okay, that's right...but when I see Sixth Brother another day, I still have to ask him, obviously he hated Big Brother Sun very much before!"
