Brothers and Sisters

A spring rain came suddenly.

In the early morning, Huaping Lake showed its more beautiful appearance in the spring rain.

The painting boat at the pier disappeared again. It didn't know where it went, and there was no one in the Yanyu Pavilion. It just stood there quietly as before, looking at Huaping Lake.

There were only Li Chen'an and Li Xiaohua outside the Misty Rain Pavilion. It was very quiet, occasionally a kingfisher hummed twice.

"Master, what are you doing?"

"Don't ask, follow the young master and I will do it together."

"oh."

Then Li Xiaohua was in pain.

...

There is a Peach Blossom Mountain in the north of Guangling City.

There is no Peach Blossom Temple at the foot of Peach Blossom Mountain, but there is a magnificent Peach Blossom Villa.

Peach Blossom Villa has also planted a lot of peach trees. It is the season when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, and the huge villa is covered in the endless peach blossoms.

very beautiful.

Especially in this fine spring rain.

There is a waterfall in the backyard of the villa, and there is a pool of clear spring under the waterfall.

Opposite the clear spring is still a peach grove. There is a small pavilion beside the peach grove. The pavilion is named Guanbao.

At the moment, there are two people sitting in the pavilion.

Neither of them went to appreciate the delicate peach blossoms in the misty rain, nor did they look at the misty waterfall like mist.

Both of them looked at the white jade table in front of them. There was a piece of paper on the table. On the paper was a beautiful small script with hairpin flowers, and it was written with a poem.

The name of the poem is "Will Enter the Wine"!

Zhongli Ruoshui's eyebrows were full of spring, she reluctantly raised her gaze from the paper, and looked at the handsome young man sitting across from him.

The boy's expression was a little nervous, so that the tips of the thick eyebrows on his face couldn't stop twitching a few times.

"Cheng Zhe, do you understand the meaning of this poem?"

He is the grandson of Cheng Jingting, Cheng Guogong of Ningguo. He is twenty years old, and he is a general of the left guard of Yujing City.

"Yesterday, I have shown you the songs "Butterfly Love Flower" and "Qing Xing'er" that he wrote earlier, and today, Mr. Hua asked Su Muxin to send the song he wrote three days ago in Qianmo Academy after drinking. This song "Will Enter the Wine", now you should understand that he is indeed talented, and you should know that he is different, right?"

Cheng Zhe couldn't understand the taste in those two words, but he read a majestic aura from this poem "Will Enter the Wine". The boy named Li Chen'an was very impressed——

Although I don't know his appearance, that young man must be a bold and unrestrained person!

He has the freedom and ease of "life must be full of joy".

Also has the self-confidence of "returning after all the money is gone".

But... "He has no fame after all. Just a small merchant in Guangling City. Although he is good at poetry and prose,...but I still don't think he is a good match for you!"

Zhongli Ruoshui glared at Cheng Zhe, put the paper away, and carefully stuffed it into his sleeve pocket.

"Whether you are my good match or not is my business, Cheng Zhe, you are indeed very skilled, and it is said that you have unique insights into the art of war, but I, Zhongli Ruoshui, really don't like people who wield knives and guns... Not really I have a prejudice against you warriors, but I prefer talented literati."

"During those years in Yujing City, I was very happy to get along with you, but that happiness was based on the fact that I regarded you as my brother."

"I still clearly remember that you took me to the Huanhua River in Yujing City to play in the water and catch grasshoppers and dragonflies."

"I also remember that you took me into the backyard of the palace to steal the pears in Concubine Ji's back garden."

"And on those full moon days, you took me to the twenty-four bridge to enjoy the moon."

"I remember the spring and autumn years I have experienced, and I also remember the delicious pastries you bought for me from Yunjinji."

"I've seen you use the Cheng family's double axes in the martial arts arena, and I've seen you galloping gallantly on a horse in armor and armor, but..."

"I really regard you as an amiable elder brother, but I didn't expect this to cause you some misunderstandings. This is my fault. You came, and I happened to apologize to you!"

As soon as Zhongli Ruoshui said these words, Cheng Zhe understood what she meant.

He knew that his whole life would never be possible with the girl who followed him and made him happy and loved him.

He bowed his head.

Laughing at himself.

"You're not wrong, it's me."

"I did think a little too much, but..."

He raised his head and looked firmly at Zhongli Ruoshui, "I'm still a little unconvinced. I thought it was a childhood sweetheart, and I thought my family background would be a better match with Zhongli's mansion."

"In the past few days, I have also learned a little bit about that young man named Li Chen'an... You have only known him for about half a month, but you easily defeated our relationship of more than ten years."

"I'm really not convinced!"

A smile appeared on Zhongli Ruoshui's face, "You made several mistakes in these few sentences."

"First, childhood sweethearts just grew up together with childhood sweethearts. It doesn't mean that childhood sweethearts are love. How did we know what love was at that time?"

"Secondly, as for family background, the family backgrounds of our two families do match, but family background is not a necessary criterion for choosing a spouse in my mind. Of course it's better to have it, and it doesn't matter if you don't have it."

"Thirdly, I did know him for only half a month, and he didn't even know who I was during this half month. But this does not affect his position in my heart, and even because of his huge transformation, I have a lot of respect for him. I became more interested...Actually, I don't know if it is possible to get together with him, because in his eyes, in his poem, he may not like the family background of Zhongli Mansion. "

"Finally, the relationship we have had over the past ten years, let me say again, is the relationship between brother and sister, and nothing else is mixed!"

"If you still like the younger sister who follows you... I, Zhongli Ruoshui, can be your younger sister for the rest of my life, and you can also be the elder brother who makes me Zhongli Ruoshui Xinnai."

"This is actually the best. I hope you can think about it."

Cheng Zhe looked up at the peach grove in the misty rain.

The boy's eyes were full of disappointment, so much so that even his vision became hazy.

After a while, he took a deep breath, "Okay, I will always be your trustworthy brother in this life!"

Zhong Li Ruoshui immediately relaxed, "Brother, you are handsome and powerful, you will definitely find a good sister-in-law for your sister!"

Things have become unstoppable, but Cheng Zhe relaxed, "Since I am your brother, I should go and see for myself what my future brother-in-law is like!"

Zhong Liruo's face was as red as peach blossoms, she lowered her head shyly, "What's so interesting? It's not just a pair of eyes and a mouth... By the way,"

Zhongli Ruoshui raised his head, with a sly look in his eyes, "There is a play about to be performed, and you can try it if you want."

"What drama?"

"Heroes save the beauty!"

"I am a hero?"

"No, you play a villain!"
