there are bandits

Mingjing's journey to and from Zhangjiakou, plus running errands, is not a day or two, at least it will take ten or so days.After she has made arrangements for things in Shanghai, she will buy a train ticket. The actual departure day will be May 5th, and Minglou will personally drive her to the train station.Ming Taifei also went to deliver it, and there was Ah Xiang in the car.Originally, it was Sunday, and Yu Manli also came to the house. The car was full, so she didn't join in the fun, saying that she would stay in the Ming Mansion to prepare dinner for them.Ah Cheng said that the eldest brother is going to get addicted to driving, so he will not give it away. I wish the eldest sister all the best and come back soon.When Mingtai left, he clamored for Yu Manli to cook Hunan dishes and wait for them to eat when they came back.

On the platform, Minglou told her sister to be careful all the way.He also admits that he has placed people by her side to protect her, and begging his sister to understand that it is not easy to be a younger brother.

Ming Jing raised his hand to straighten his clothes, and he didn't refute, so he accepted it.

"I saw the arm wrap on Manli's arm today, which looks familiar. You gave it to me? It's almost given away. When will you marry her back?"

Yu Manli was wearing a water-red short-sleeved cheongsam today, and Jin Chuaner only wore one hand.Her hair was pulled into a loose bun, Minglou didn't know what these buns were called, but they looked pretty anyway.Without the cover of her hair, her neck was wrapped by the small stand-up collar of the cheongsam, tempting people to tear off the collar and take a closer look inside.When Minglou put on the earrings he retrieved for her, his fingers scraped from her earlobe to her chin without idleness, the soft and smooth touch made one's heart tremble.All she has is earrings and gold bracelets on her arms, without any extra accessories.It didn't take away the beauty of the cheongsam, but also complemented her white and creamy skin. It was a good match.

Ming Lou flashed back in his mind, and smiled at Ming Jing: "That's about it, the Ming family's dowry won't be as shabby as three pieces of jewelry."

"Is this a deal with her? As long as you say it's a deal, what more sisters will be searched for you from all over China and the world." Ming Jing patted his arm, with a gratified smile on his face: "I can see All of you getting married is the best gift for my sister in this life."

"Sister, we agreed on the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. Aren't you the emperor who is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry!"

"You child, what are you talking about!" Ming Jing laughed angrily, and punched him hard, and Minglou let out an ouch in pain.

When Mingtai came back with fruit, he saw the elder sister beating the elder brother from afar, which made him excited.He ran to the front in three or two steps: "Sister, why did big brother mess with you? I'll beat him up for you."

"You boy, why are you joining in the fun, go to the side."

Minglou stiffened, and Mingtai shrank his neck, screaming that he was aggrieved but did not dare to speak loudly.Ming Jing Chaoshou stood on the sidelines and watched the two brothers quarrel.Minglou is taller than Mingtai. When he makes a head-pressing movement, he is really pressing his head. Mingtai can put his head down to the ground.But Mingtai would act like a spoiled child if he couldn't help it, as soon as his elder brother raised his hand, he automatically leaned his head on Minglou's shoulder.The person is tilted, the feet are still at the cross point, and the whole Minglou is used as a pillar.Minglou stepped back exaggeratedly, and moved to Mingjing's side step by step. Mingtai took advantage of the momentum and threw himself into Mingjing's arms, put his arms around his sister's shoulders and said, "Sister, come back early."

Ming Jing patted him on the back and nodded, while meeting Ming Lou's eyes.Mingtai's marriage has been settled, if Minglou can also settle on this, and Ah Cheng's child has never been worried about, then she really has a successful life and is worthy of everyone.

On the way back, there were only two brothers in the car, and Mingtai looked like an adult at this moment.Seriously bargaining with Minglou whether to go to some Latin cram school with Yu Manli, or stay at home instead of going to school and learn to do business.Minglou said that it's all right, the premise is that if the set is the same, you must be down-to-earth, study hard or work hard.

"But Yu Manli's family definitely wants her to study abroad." Mingtai turned his head and looked tentatively at Minglou's driving expression: "Brother, have you ever thought about going back to France with Manli? She is studying, you do Go back to your professor, maybe you can still be her professor!"

"No." Minglou replied simply and neatly, without even thinking about it.

"Why, this is unreasonable! Eldest sister has always wanted you to be a pure scholar, which is also what father thinks." Mingtai moved his buttocks on the seat, trying his best to see the solemn and serious expression on his face.This is not a random proposal, he has seriously thought about it.The identity of the eldest brother, only if they stay away from here, the brothers will not fight.

"Why don't you go out with Jinyun, the eldest sister always hopes that you can study more and be less reckless."

Recently, Mingtai often had nightmares that he held his elder brother's head with a gun, woke up in a cold sweat, and then tossed and turned on the bed with their group photo frame in his arms, sleeping unsteadily at all.Even when he saw his eldest brother during the day, he was also conflicted and hesitant, feeling in a dilemma.He was afraid that his elder brother would force him to beat him, but at the same time he really wanted to be by his side and listen to him teach him.That's the admiration and... admiration cultivated in childhood.He envied Ah Cheng for being close to his elder brother, but he didn't say that he had an elder sister.He felt it was fair and unfair.People say that they are timid, and so is he.He was afraid when he was close to Minglou, but nothing could stop him from getting close to this omnipotent, outstanding elder brother who was so good that the heavens were jealous.

"Brother, will you forgive me?"

If, one day we must stand on both sides of the hostility.We have to come to a life-and-death situation, will you forgive me, brother?

Minglou didn't answer him, and drove the car intently.

When the car entered Ming's yard, Mingtai stood on the steps and smelled the unique spiciness and aroma of Hunan cuisine.He stopped, and his shoulders, which had been tensed all the way, relaxed quietly.He heard Minglou's footsteps approaching after closing the car door.

"Brother, I think, did I make the wrong choice? I made the wrong choice in terms of personnel and the way of heaven."

Then, Mingtai heard his elder brother using an extremely steady voice, as if it was a bowl of water placed on a wooden board, with a rolling ball underneath, and he could still use it steadily and calmly.

"As long as you live in peace, brother can forgive you anything."

Mingtai's eye sockets were moist, and a heartless smile appeared on his face again.He strode into the living room with great strides, shouting with all his strength, "Brother Ah Cheng, Manli!" He felt the bowl of water slowly enter his heart, flow to his limbs, and turn into endless power.He doesn't need to see what Toushui is, he just needs to know that it's his big brother!Everywhere!

After a lively meal, Ah Cheng brewed a cup of Dahongpao and sent it to Minglou's study.Ming Lou closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. There was a tiny air hole in the lid of the purple clay tea, from which the fragrance of the tea floated faintly, and the invisible smoke and fire lingered in the room. Like.

Ming Lou closed his eyes and smiled: "In terms of the skill of making tea and coffee, our family Ah Cheng is second, and no one dares to climb to the first."

"No, I was thinking about whether I should study it more carefully." Ah Cheng sat down on the single sofa, and said with a naughty mouth: "If I go on, I won't even have the qualification to serve tea and water."

Minglou opened his eyes, the smile on his lips was unrestrained, he took a sip from his teacup, and smacked his lips: "This Hunan cuisine is really good. After all, the first meal without Ah Xiang is still fragrant." overflowing."

Ah Cheng was almost pissed off by him, and glared at him and said, "The two of you have chatted in the kitchen all afternoon. I guess the bottom line is almost over when you were young, and your usual homework and rest time should be about the same. Wolves and rabbits, and Happy."

"Has she ever been here?"

"Not yet, step by step, even Aunt Gui has never come in here. Although she is blocked by you, she should not be so fast."

"Ah Cheng, you have to be careful with your tone! She is still our comrade in arms, just like Mingtai."

"You are not afraid that she will be changed by Suzuki. Do you trust her so much?"

"...why...don't believe it?"

Why not?You won't betray me, will you?

Yu Manli came in with the fruit, squatted in front of him and forked a piece of mango with a silver fork and handed it over, Minglou looked at her and thought about it.He didn't reach out to take it, he lowered his head and opened his mouth directly, swallowing the fork in her hand.With a smack of lips and tongue, the yellow mango flesh entered his mouth, but his teeth bit the fork and did not put it down.

Yu Manli pulled her back, and said with a helpless smile, "If Director Wang told you to do this, will you do the same?"

"what"

Minglou let out an innocent cry, loosened his teeth quickly, and leaned back on the sofa.

"Mango is a seasonal fruit. It's only the beginning of May, and it's shipped from the south. It's expensive."

"As long as you officers can afford it, we will follow suit."

"Then you can dip a little more, and I will dip it all for you. What else to dip, you say, and I will do it."

"Director Wang said that it is impossible for a person like me to be honored by the Ming family."

Yu Manli turned the fork in her hand, and also forked a piece of mango for herself.The mango pieces were cut very small, and she didn't put them in her mouth, but just turned them around, looking at each cut side.The silver fork flashed under the light, and the light just shone into Minglou's eyes.He didn't blink, and still maintained a comfortable and calm sitting posture, and Yu Manli felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart.

"What kind of person are you?"

"You know what kind of person I am. You have seen me when I was the most embarrassing and fierce. I am an unclean person with blood hatred."

Minglou finally frowned, feeling uncomfortable.

"Why do you call her Chief Wang, and you are not her subordinate?"

"I still call you Mr. Ming."

"That's because you're mine"

"Since when am I yours?"

"You're mine when I put earrings on you"

The curtains in the room were drawn and the door was closed.This is a relatively closed space, only for the two of them, like a room for two people.There was no shadow on the floor, so Yu Manli moved her toes forward, and she could roughly estimate the angle if there was a shadow.This place is where the toes touch each other.

She put down the fork in her hand, disarming and surrendering.Rubbing his hands together on his knees.She should be happy, but she didn't feel the emotion at all.She was a little annoyed, but she forgave such annoyance.

"People who belong to you may not be from the Ming family. And you can give up everything for the sake of the Ming family"

"You're right. So now you're here to ask what the Ming family has that is worth giving up everything?"

"Minglou!" she called out dissatisfied.

"I'm here." He responded gently.

The Suzuki Kikuichi that day at the Navy Club was not the rude and unreasonable Suzuki Kikuichi at the Kokusai Hotel.He is well mannered and courteous.Of course he knew what Wang Manchun said about Yu Manli's past, but he didn't mention a word.The tone of his speech is the kind of funny cadence that most foreigners will have when they speak Chinese, but when he speaks, you can't help but listen attentively to his tone.Instead of hearing disrespect, you feel like you're being asked to do him a crucial, great favor.What he wanted was to inquire about the history of the Ming family and the business of the Ming family.He repeated over and over how important Minglou was to them, how could they hurt Minglou, and he was happy to see that she and Minglou could become a pair of lovers.

At that time, Yu Manli was thinking in her heart, it is really difficult to become the person who Wang Tianfeng said has no heart and will not be influenced by emotions!

Then she asked, what about Wang Manchun?Suzuki said that he just wanted to prevent her from becoming the second heartbroken Wang Manchun.

"Don't you ask if Suzuki did anything to me that day?"

"Oh..." Minglou reached out and grabbed her hand: "My ownership of you is so obvious, if Suzuki will do something to you, then he really doesn't want me to work for their Japanese. Besides, haven't I seen Do you look fierce? I firmly believe that your little paw is definitely not a vegetarian."

She curled up her fingers and scratched in his palm, scratching and laughing to herself.

I laughed out of a sentence that shouldn't be laughed, and there is no point in laughing.Maybe it's for that "ownership", or maybe it's for that "death".Whose ownership, whose life is sold?

When she looked up, she saw Minglou was also smiling.Maybe he was laughing all the time, watching her hesitate and watching her make a fool of herself as a bystander.

"Do you know, you are so calm and calm, Taishan collapsed in front of you, it seems that you are disgusting because you pushed your palm." She leaned forward and pressed against his ear, uttering Youlan word by word Repeated breathlessly: "Really, it's annoying!"

Yu Manli stood up when Minglou was about to grab her. He didn't use any force, and her arm slipped out of his palm smoothly, bringing out a series of frictional anger.

"Mingtai said to take me home"

Ming Lou turned to her back and said: "Eldest sister often explains that the soil and water in the house are good, that the flowers and peonies are grown, and the grass is orchid grass. I think you already have the fragrance of orchid grass in the Ming family."

"When I called Director Wang's sister-in-law at the International Hotel, at that moment, she gave people the illusion that she was a blooming peony."

"It's indeed an illusion. Poor piece of Qinhuai moon, once a stone came out of the streamer."

Unmoved, Ming Lou turned his head slightly, looking at the curvaceous back of the little girl.

Yu Manli exhaled without turning her head, and said softly, "Do you know Luoying Gorge?"

Minglou remained silent.

She continued: "I used to have an enemy in Hebei, and I stayed there for a long time. The terrain of this canyon is dangerous and hidden. Only the elderly people in the area know about it, but they may not have seen it. Luoying Gorge is as the name suggests, It's a place where eagles break their wings."

Hebei, Zhangjiakou.Luoying Gorge.
