Chapter 38 Where is the Junior Brother?

Chao Jianxue had a life that could be described as a fairyland.

When he was thirsty, someone brought him water; when he was hungry, someone brought him food; Yu Wei even lit an incense burner and a lantern for him.

He hummed twice, and Yu Wei came to ask, "What's the matter, Senior Brother?"

Chao Jianxue pointed to the book on the table with a reserved look: "I learned halfway before, and I want to continue reading, but I can't read the words. Can Junior Brother read it for me?"

Li Zhenzhen, who came to visit him, complained: "You are not blind, why are you so squeamish? A real man, shout when it hurts, don't read any books!"

He playfully stretched out his claws to press Chao Jianxue's legs.

Chao Jianxue took the opportunity when Yu Wei went to get the book, and kicked his leg, hitting the bull's eye. Li Zhenzhen held back and shook his hands.

Chao Jianxue made a face at him: He did this to delay Yu Wei's progress in cultivation!

If he didn't waste time with him, Yu Wei would be practicing hard!

Li Zhenzhen suddenly realized, staggered to the side and sat down, and changed his words: "Great, you still don't forget to study while recovering from your injuries. I should learn from your spirit of selfless learning."

Seeing Yu Wei coming over, he continued: "I really envy you for having a junior brother like Yu. It would be great if Yu was my real junior brother."

Chao Jianxue moved inward, patted the edge of his couch and motioned Yu Wei to sit down.

Then he smiled at Li Zhenzhen and said: "Senior brother, you can't envy me. Go away, don't disturb my practice. Remember to bring a bag of roasted chestnuts when you come tomorrow!"

Li Zhenzhen just said "No, no."

As soon as he left, the surroundings became quiet.

Yu Wei held the book and pointed to which page he was on. Chao Jianxue forgot himself and simply said: "Let's start from the beginning, little junior brother, is it too much trouble for you?"

He knew that Yu Wei would not refuse, but he still had to pretend, so he leaned weakly on the wooden pillow, looking at him with hopeful eyes, with that pale face, it was really pitiful.

Yu Wei blinked his eyes slowly and said, "No."

It was strange that the originally dull and obscure words in the book became particularly easy to understand when read out of Yu Wei's mouth. His voice was clear and mellow, like a piece of endless gurgling water, and it was easy to listen to it. Chao Jianxue stared at Yu Wei intently.

The window behind him revealed a soft and pouring spring scenery, which was coated on his outline. Every strand of hair was shining, like a ball of round light.

The pear blossoms in the yard have bloomed, like snow and clouds, and the fragrance is blown away by the wind.

The silver threads on Yu Wei's headband were graceful in the light, hidden in his long black hair. Every corner of his clothes was very smooth. The fingers holding the book were white and slender, with some thin calluses from holding the sword. The collar was covered very tightly. Looking up, his chin was also perfect, his lips were thin, his nose was bony, his eyebrows were clear and elegant, but still had a bit of heroism... "

...Do you have any opinion on this paragraph, senior brother?"

Chao Jianxue: "..."

Yu Wei closed the book, frowned slightly and looked over, blocking the view of pear blossoms in the window.

Chao Jianxue licked his lips awkwardly. He was so engrossed in reading that he was caught. It's just that Yu Wei is really good-looking. I didn't think so before, but now the more I know him, the better he is. The kind of good that is pleasing to the eye, the kind that I want to worship.

Yu Wei looked at him and said, "Senior brother is too absent-minded. If it still hurts, don't think about anything."

After saying that, he was about to stand up.

Chao Jianxue hurriedly grabbed his sleeve. He didn't know what kind of satin it was made of. It felt cold to the touch, as if he had grabbed a ball of snow water.

"No, no, don't go..." His mind was working very fast, and he made an unreasonable request, "Junior brother, can you sing? I want to hear you sing!"

"..." Yu Wei looked very embarrassed, but his sleeve was grabbed, and he couldn't leave. "I can't."

Chao Jianxue said, "It doesn't matter if you can't. You must have heard the simplest children's songs, right? I just want to hear this! You have a nice voice, and you must sing well too!"

Yu Wei was obviously a little flustered, and no longer had the fairy spirit just now. He pulled his sleeve and tried to pull it back: "I, can't, can..."

Chao Jianxue used both hands: "Just that song, uh, that song 'Little Rabbit, Open the Door Obediently', sing it with me again..."

He even used the singing tune as a sample.

"Never heard of it before." Yu Wei resisted with all his strength, but he had to be careful not to bring the injured Chao Jianxue off the bed. The latter's entire upper body fell out of the bed, and his inner clothes rolled up to reveal a part of his waist.

At this time, because of the tension, there were two shallow waist dimples and deep back grooves.

Yu Wei looked away as if he was burned.

"Junior brother, please, just sing one sentence--" Chao Jianxue said.

"According to my personality, I will ask you to sing the second and third sentences after I sing one sentence." Yu Wei hit the nail on the head, and he actually knew him very well.

He didn't understand why Chao Jianxue suddenly wanted him to sing. In fact, Chao Jianxue just wanted to dispel the state of not daring to breathe that she wanted to worship him just now.

He suspected that he was bewitched by beauty and felt that this was a bit bad, so he begged Yu Wei to break his fairy temperament by himself. He

also relied on Yu Wei to treat him as a close senior brother now.

The two of them were at a stalemate, neither of them willing to give in, just as the cloth suddenly trembled, Chao Jianxue was stunned for a moment, he actually tore off Yu Wei's sleeve.

Without support, his upper body had already left the couch, and now he fell to the ground.

With a "bang", his forehead hit the floor, just stuck on the edge of the soft blanket, so the sound was very loud, bad luck.

Chao Jianxue was motionless, with his hands raised, still holding the broken sleeve.

Yu Wei did not expect it, and came to pull him: "Senior Brother..."

This posture is extremely difficult to turn over, not to mention Chao Jianxue was determined to die, and slowly "slid" off the bed. Yu Wei helped him up, and heard him whisper "It hurts".

How could it not hurt?

The lacerated tendons are still recovering, and there is a big bump on his head.

Yu Wei said coldly: "Who told you to act like a rogue..."

Just as he took a step, the soft blanket on the ground was pushed up by Chao Jianxue's head, tripping Yu Wei. They both fell into the bed, and Chao Jianxue screamed in pain.

He opened his eyes in panic, only to see Yu Wei with his hands on the sides of his face, his eyes wide open in astonishment, so close that Chao Jianxue could see the little red dot on the corner of his lower eyelid.

Yu Wei wanted to get up, but his sleeves and hem were pressed down by Chao Jianxue, making it difficult for him to get out.

His face was full of excitement, and Chao Jianxue found it funny. He couldn't help laughing, and his head didn't hurt so much anymore.

"Senior brother!" Yu Wei said coldly.

Chao Jianxue rolled to the side: "Okay, okay, it's my fault, it's brother's fault."

Yu Wei untied his clothes, walked back a few quick steps, lowered his head and said: "I'm leaving, brother, have a good rest."

Chao Jianxue lay on the bed, and said with an unsatisfied look: "Leaving now? Are you angry? Will you come again in the evening?"

Yu Wei said: "Senior brother, can't you sleep for a while? Why do you always want me... to stay here?" He paused. He was originally angry, but finally his tone weakened.

Chao Jianxue was shameless and said nonsense: "I like you to stay here. Don't be angry, little junior brother..."

Yu Wei choked when he heard the words, and left Qingxuezhu without looking back, saying "I'm not angry".

Through the window, you can see that he left with the wind, and a pear blossom fell on his shoulder.

Qiu Shui rushed in with a new medicine soup in his hand. He didn't notice it when he greeted Yu Wei. Yu Wei didn't see his sleeve until he walked away. Why was there a piece missing?

When he entered the inner room, he saw that his eldest brother was still holding the broken piece in his hand, and there was a big bump on his forehead, as if he was hit by someone.

No wonder little junior brother Yu looked so hurried just now, as if he was running away!

When Qiushui returned, she told Nanshan, "Big Brother cut off Junior Brother's sleeve! Junior Brother seemed to have punched Big Brother!"

Nanshan was incredulous and sealed her mouth, "Don't talk nonsense, you will be fined for spreading rumors."

Qiushui whimpered and broke free, "Oh, that's not what I meant, I meant it literally, Senior Brother, how can you have a dirty mind!"

Nanshan was amused and angry, "You said it out of your mouth and you blamed me!"

The two of them bickered as usual, and it was another ordinary day of chaos.

The next day, Li Zhenzhen brought a bag of roasted chestnuts to Chao Jianxue and complained to him about how annoying her junior brothers and sisters were.

Chen Duyuanjun recently took in another three-year-old child, and it was all up to his senior brother to take care of the child, and his face looked much older.

While complaining, he received messages from Xie Bingyuan from time to time, asking which cabinet the junior brother's favorite clothes were placed in, where the junior brother's wooden sword was placed, etc.

Li Zhenzhen shouted at the jade plate, "Cabinet, cabinet! Do you see the last grid on the lower left? The wooden sword broke yesterday. You should carve another one for him today. Remember to use softer wood..."

Chao Jianxue waited absent-mindedly for a long time, but didn't see Yu Wei. She was uneasy and asked, "Have you seen Yu Wei today?"

Li Zhenzhen collapsed after answering the call. She didn't expect this person to ask about Yu Wei right away. He didn't care about her at all and reached out to snatch the chestnuts that Chao Jianxue had peeled.

"You think about Yu Wei all day long. Do you consider me as your only brother? When the time comes, we will run away together, not with your little junior brother!"

Chao Jianxue said, "Hey, I see you are good at taking care of children. Xie Bingyuan asks you about everything, and your little junior brother is also shouting, 'Where is senior brother?' He likes you so much."

"I'm tired, do you understand? The world is about to be destroyed, and I'm still a male mother!"

Chao Jianxue laughed: "Male mother!"

"Stop laughing! Today is the 20th, and it's the birthday of that little brat Xie. Do you want to join in the fun?"

Chao Jianxue was too lazy to move: "I'm a patient and can't walk."

He thought about it, and directed Li Zhenzhen to get a piccolo produced by Qiqiao Pavilion on his shelf.

"It's unused and looks very beautiful. Please give it to Xie Bingyuan as a gift for me."

Li Zhenzhen accepted it for Xie Bingyuan with a smile, then touched other things on his shelf and said expectantly: "My birthday is coming soon, what will you give me?"

Chao Jianxue raised his eyes lazily: "Take whatever you want. Except for the lotus incense burner."

"Really? Then I'll be polite!" Li Zhenzhen's eyes lit up, and she said, "Actually, I have two birthdays! One in my previous life, and one in this life!"

Chao Jianxue said speechlessly: "Take it."

"Ahahaha! How wonderful!" Li Zhenzhen started to choose carefully, and asked, "What about you? When were you born?"

"I forgot." Chao Jianxue spit out these two words.

Li Zhenzhen was silent for a moment, and walked over, carefully testing: "How could I forget? If you forget in this life, the last life counts!"

Chao Jianxue rolled her eyes: "I've never celebrated it, and I don't remember it for a long time!"

Li Zhenzhen was particularly sentimental at times, and suddenly imagined the miserable scene of Chao Jianxue having no friends, no one to love, and no one to care for her. She said sincerely: "Don't be sad, I will accompany you in the future."

"Get lost!" Chao Jianxue laughed and scolded him, "I'm not sad, I have never taken birthdays seriously, it's nothing more than an ordinary day, it's over in a blink of an eye, it's not that pitiful, really!"

Although he said so, Li Zhenzhen still felt that he was miserable, and looked at him with a look of "Brother, I know it's not easy for you", without saying a word.

Chao Jianxue threw a chestnut to him: "Then help me peel the chestnuts!"

After eating a few more, Chao Jianxue felt that it was not very delicious. He tilted his head and looked at the cloud shadows outside the window.

"Twenty today?"

Li Zhenzhen nodded: "Yes."

"I always feel like I forgot something..."

What was it?

Chao Jianxue jumped up from the bed.

It's Yu Wei, Yu Wei's erysipelas attack day!
