ungrateful

The author has something to say: Collect starfish~~~Whoever has leftover starfish, vote for it~~~

Don't go... Of course you can't.

This is something his father ordered, and Yan Huai will naturally do it. More importantly, he is quite aware of who Xin Chi wants to see. Give up, but Yan Huai still has to go and see what Xin Chi is going to do.

Yan Huai was going, and Ji An would definitely follow.

He followed Yan Huai with his head down, and was led to the Xinchi Courtyard by the servants of the Xin Mansion. Along the way, he felt a little dazed in his heart.

It's been a few months, but the familiarity imprinted in my bones is completely indelible.

He has lived here since he was eight years old, and he is very familiar with everything in the courtyard. He knows the appearance of every plant and tree here, the direction of every path here, who lives in each house here, and the people here. What are the names of the servants, maids, and cooks?

During the three months in Yanfu, it seemed like he had a dream. When he woke up, he returned to the courtyard where he had lived for a long time.

The tree standing in the yard has lost all its leaves, standing bare and lonely, Ji An immediately thought of the appearance of the fallen leaves on this tree like a conditioned reflex, and Xin Chixian was too noisy to sweep the fallen leaves with a broom, he often Get up early and pick the leaves by hand.

He stood there blankly, like a revolving lantern in his head, remembering all the things he had lived here.

Until Yan Huai's voice sounded, telling him to follow closely and not get lost.

How could he get lost here? Even if he didn't turn on the lights at night, he wouldn't get lost here. Ji An looked around again, but couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

It's like... I used to live in a dilapidated house in a small village, but after my parents died and didn't want him, he was picked up by Xin Chi and lived in Xin's house where even the tiles were carved with flowers, but later The young master of the Xin family didn't want him anymore, and he was picked up by Yan Huai again.

He can only live in a place he is familiar with, but he has no home.

Ji An was thinking wildly, and his habit revealed infinite and terrifying power. When he entered Xin Chi's room, he felt a little cold, so he subconsciously went to a corner of the cabinet in the back room and turned over the hand warmer, holding it to add charcoal.

This hand stove is something Xin Chi is used to, and it has always been kept by Ji An. After this year's winter, Xin Chi looked for it twice, but he couldn't find it.

Xin Chi half leaned against the head of the bed, and laughed when he saw Ji An come out with the hand stove.

Sure enough, Ji An still cared about him. Even if he refused to go home with him before, it was just because of fear. Now that he knew that he was sick, didn't he immediately come over to visit him? Knowing that he was cold, he even turned out the hand stove .

Ji An, how could you leave him?

Xin Chi breathed a sigh of relief, greeted Ji An, and said with a smile: "You still have to come back, Qi San and the others can't find where to put this hand stove. Let him add charcoal, come and sit."

His voice was a little hoarse, coughing. Of course, there was also an element of deliberate suppression, but it needed a little trick. He had to keep Ji An here today.

However, this sentence called back Ji An's soul who had drifted to nowhere. Ji An was stunned for a moment, seeing the hand stove in his hand was a little dazed, and he even forgot when he held it in his hand. After taking a look at Xin Chi, he subconsciously went to find the direction of Yan Huai.

But Yan Huai stood there, saw his eyes, but didn't seem to intend to speak.

There was no charcoal in the hand stove, but it seemed that the charcoal inside was already burning hot. Ji An felt a little hot when holding it.

In the end, it was Cuihe who came to rescue Ji An.

She had just gone to fetch medicine for Xin Chi, when she opened the door curtain and came in, she saw Ji An in a daze.

The last time I saw Ji An, she was still in such a flustered situation, she didn't dare to stop Ji An, and Ji An didn't see her, but why did this child come back by himself?She subconsciously said, "Ji An is back? Quickly help me get the jar of preserved fruit. I just went to get the medicine and I forgot to take it."

Ji An was still holding the hand stove, and didn't react in a daze. He even forgot what Cui He had told him a long time ago, and called out: "Sister..."

Cuihe quickly nudged him with his elbow and urged: "Go quickly."

Ji An glanced at Yan Huai again, but the other party still had no intention of speaking.

The young master ignored him, Ji An didn't know what to do, so he pouted and went out to help Cuihe find a jar of preserved fruit.

After a while, after Cui He served Xin Chi and took the medicine, he came to look for Ji An while he was delivering the medicine bowl, and asked anxiously at the first sentence: "Ji An, why are you back?"

She took the hand stove that Ji An was still holding and put it on the small table beside her, a little anxiously: "Did the young master's people find you? Why don't you know how to run away, kid... How about it, I helped my wife do things before, I know there is a small gate in the backyard where you can run, so you can leave at night, run farther this time, so you don’t get found again, you understand?"

Ji An was a little dazed by her words: "Why did you run?"

Cuihe was terrified by his stupid look, and while scribbling that he saw what happened that night, he dragged him to the house where he lived to get the package: "I secretly packed your things for you, just I don't know where you went, but today I just gave it to you... but why don't you even have much money for yourself?"

She is also a slave bought by the Xin family, but she is a little different from Ji An. She has parents and brothers in her family. At the beginning, the family suffered a disaster, and the youngest brother in the family was about to die of illness but had no money to treat her, so she sold her .

When she left, the younger brother cried so much that he was about to faint, and grabbed her by the corner of his clothes and shouted, "Sister, don't leave."

If she could still see her, the younger brother who followed her all day crying and snotting his nose should be about the same age as Ji An, obedient and obedient, and even foolish.

She couldn't help being nice to Ji An.

The meeting was really hasty this time, Cuihe didn't have time to prepare, so she opened a small box she hid in the deepest part of the dowry box, took out some broken silver, after thinking about it, she took a pair of earrings, and stuffed them into the small bag that Ji An packed .

It was only now that after Cuihe finished talking, Ji An finally realized what was going on, and rubbed over to tug Cuihe: "Sister... I, I don't need to run, I... I didn't find it for the young master, I Today I came with Master Yan."

Speaking of Yan Huai, Ji An subconsciously grabbed the corner of his clothes with his fingers: "Yan... the young master saved me."

Cuihe paused for a moment before subconsciously asking: "Then you will follow him today?"

Ji An picked at the corner of his clothes and nodded, "Yes", he took out the silver and earrings from the small bag and returned them to Cuihe, and said in a low voice, "Thank you sister, I don't want it."

This silly child knew how to find a shelter for himself, so he was not as stupid as she thought, Cuihe heaved a sigh of relief, and finally smiled.

Only now did she have time to take a closer look at Ji An, only to realize that Ji An was indeed a little fatter, and looked better than when she saw him in the Xin Mansion, and he really didn't look like he had been wandering outside for a few months.

"I went in and saw you holding a hand stove, and thought you had come back again." She rubbed Ji An's head and said, "Let's go, young master has been very angry recently, and taking medicine feels bitter, I still stew it Sweet lotus seed soup, I have to send it quickly."

After talking about what she thought of, she asked Ji An softly: "I have stewed a lot, so I'll secretly eat a bowl for you? I sent it to you when you were sick, remember?"

Cuihe said it unintentionally, it was just a trivial matter, she had just given it to Xin Chi not long ago, and felt that Ji An was pitifully ill, so she quietly cooked sweet soup and sent it to him.

But this was a big deal for Ji An.

The sweet lotus seed soup for two consecutive days was once Ji An's most precious memory. He felt that the young master treated him well, and that the young master missed him...but it turned out that it was all because of him.

Holding his little burden, Ji An was a little dazed, and said dully, "Thank you sister..."

Cuihe had to serve Xin Chi, leaving Ji An alone to steal his food, and when she heard Ji An's words, she stopped and turned around, she shouldn't have said this, but she still said: "Ji An... It will be the same in the banquet mansion in the future, even if the master saves you, you should think about it for yourself, don't always be so stupid."

Ji An held a small bowl of sweet lotus seed soup to drink, but he couldn't taste it much.

What my sister said was right, Ji An knew it, but he couldn't help feeling that Yan Huai was different.
