Master of Pretenders

?One morning during the winter vacation, Ming Jing was ready to go to work in the company with a handbag.Minglou called him to stop, took the coat from Ah Xiang's hand, and helped his sister put it on. "Sister, I'm going out today." "Let's go." Ming Jing knew his younger brother, he wasn't the kind of naughty kid who caused trouble, but he still couldn't help asking, "What are you going to do? Are you looking for a classmate?" Minglou didn't dare It's not a big deal to hide it from my sister.The elder brother of one of my classmates is going to study in the Soviet Union.He helped our drama club rehearse a play, and we made an appointment to see him off.Ming Jing muttered for a while, "Go to the Soviet Union. I heard that Young Master Jiang also went." Ming Lou said, "Yes, they are the same batch of students who went to Moscow University." Ming Jing remembered the familiar figure, and was a little dazed. . "Elder Sister?" Hearing his younger brother calling, he regained his composure. "Oh, you go. It's cold, you need to wear more clothes" and then went out.

Minglou and his classmates surrounded their idols and went to the train station.The young talents warmly shook hands, hugged and said goodbye on the platform.Minglou's classmate dragged a young man in his twenties over, who seemed to be a student who was about to go on a long journey, "Minglou, let me introduce you, this is Brother Ye. This is my classmate Minglou." Carefully looking at Minglou a lot, he asked, "Are you the young master of the Ming family?" Minglou felt a little uncomfortable being looked at, "Yes, Brother Ye. Do you know me?" The young man smiled, "We probably haven't met. But I do know you. Mingjing is your eldest sister, right?" Someone mentioned her sister's name, and Minglou straightened her body slightly and replied, "It's my sister." The young man patted him on the shoulder, "Your sister and I are classmates. Listen. She mentioned you." Minglou's heart moved slightly, what kind of classmate would talk about family members?Thinking this way in my heart, but my face remained expressionless.The young man sighed, and said old-fashionedly, "It's not been easy for your sister these years. You should study hard and don't let him down." Minglou was even more puzzled, and replied politely, "Minglou knows that it's not easy for my sister, so I should work hard to help her." My sister shares her worries"

The siren sounded, and the people on the long journey gradually boarded the train, and the people who saw off on the platform waved their hands and slowly dispersed.

Minglou walked out with his classmates, but unexpectedly ran into the elder sister.He felt that his sister looked a little different than usual. "Sister, why are you here?" "Oh, I was talking about something near the station, and I thought you might be there, so I planned to wait for you here and pick you up." Minglou took his sister's arm, "I You can go back by yourself, it’s so cold, don’t freeze up if you stand here.” He suddenly remembered the young man just now. "Sister, do you have a classmate surnamed Ye, who is going to Moscow University this time?" "Ah, surnamed Ye. Oh, I have been away from school for a long time, I have many things at home, and I have not contacted my classmates for a long time. You Said, it seems that there is a classmate surnamed Ye." Minglou felt that her sister's answer was a bit strange, so she just asked casually, as if her sister was explaining something.And judging from the words of that big brother Ye, they should be very familiar with him.But he didn't intend to continue asking.

After dinner, Ming Jing went back to his room in a drowsy state.Minglou went back to the study to read by himself.Mingtai dragged Ah Cheng to play in the living room.Ah Cheng was thinking about the homework assigned by his elder brother, and quickly hid back in his room.Mingtai was bored so he went to the eldest sister's room to act like a baby.He knocked on the door, but the elder sister's voice did not come from inside as usual. He knocked hard a few more times, and the elder sister opened the door, holding a white silk handkerchief in her hand.Mingtai rushed over as usual, asking the elder sister to hug her.But Ming Jing patted his little hand, how old he is, he still needs his sister to hug him.The elf heard the abnormality in her sister's voice, blinked, and asked, "Is the elder sister crying? Elder sister is good, don't cry. A child who loves to cry is not brave." Ming Jing's eyes were a little red again, and he sniffed and said, "Okay, elder sister Listen to Mingtai, be brave and don't cry." But after all, she couldn't hide too much, she could only try to get the little guy out. "Mingtai, have you memorized the English that big brother asked you to memorize? Tell my sister to listen to it." This was his dead point. Rubbing his head, "Then go back and memorize English. The elder brother just said that he will listen to it early in the morning. Brother Ah Cheng failed in English and was beaten up." Mingtai always thought that Ah Cheng was beaten by his elder brother that day because he failed the exam , he wanted to get tired of his elder sister, but was also afraid of his elder brother, so he reluctantly went out.

After all, the young master is not someone who can sit obediently in the room and read books by himself, so he went to the living room to grind Ah Xiang.Minglou came out to pour water and watched him jump up and down.When Mingtai saw his elder brother, he was worried that he would remember the matter of memorizing English. He felt that he had to find a topic to change, and suddenly said, "Brother, I want to tell you a secret." Minglou looked at him suspiciously, "You have a secret to tell me? What are you doing? "Mingtai was unwilling, "If I do something bad, it will be fine if I don't hide from you, and I can deliver it to your door by myself. You come, why don't you come?" He dragged his eldest brother into the study, and told him mysteriously, "I I saw my sister crying just now." Ming Lou frowned, pushed his younger brother away and went upstairs.Just as he was about to knock on the door, he stopped.He hesitated for a moment, then turned and left.Mingtai was still looking around in the room, Minglou was a little confused, and scolded Mingtai, "Do you understand the rules, don't touch other people's things?" Talked and wanted to slip away.The eldest brother suddenly said, "Have you finished memorizing the English? I will check it in the morning at Mingtai, and hit my palm if I miss a word." The thunder hanging above his head still struck, and the young master Ming ran away in despair.

After all, Minglou felt that the elder sister's behavior yesterday was abnormal, and he took the initiative to ask Ah Xiang to clean the room after the elder sister went to work.The eldest sister's room is neat and elegant, with a faint scent of Ming family fragrance.There is a book by the bed, which he has never seen before."Declaration of □□" was written on the cover. He had heard of this book before, and when he opened the title page, there was a line of strange handwriting "Mingjing Huicun. Ye." Minglou seemed to understand something. He remembered the handsome young man yesterday, I think of the red eye circles of my eldest sister, and think of Mingtai's informant yesterday.

He is almost 16 years old, and he has also read "A Dream of Red Mansions" and "The Peony Pavilion".He knows that there will be emotions between men and women that transcend life and death, and he can't experience and understand them yet, but he believes that they will exist.He couldn't figure out what kind of affection there was between the eldest sister and that Mr. Ye, but he knew that Mr. Ye had left and would be away for a long time, and the eldest sister was still in Shanghai and at home. ?
