Ren Xin proposed to stay in an inn and wait for the summons, but she refused the kindness of the magistrate and the master, but the magistrate did not give up.
"Is it inconvenient to live in an inn? It's better to live in the county government office. There are many rooms in the county government office, free of board and lodging, and there are servants to serve..." The master talked endlessly about some of the people who live in the county government office.
The good thing is that people feel a headache. The drunkard’s intention is not to drink. Could this intention be any more obvious?
In the end, Ren Xin and Shitou were unable to get out of the county government office. Despite the coercion and inducement from the master and the county magistrate, they stayed in the wing room that the county magistrate "kindly" prepared for them that night. What did Zhan Yue say?
He also refused to live by himself or with Shitou. He kept arguing. It wasn't until the maid took him to Ren Xin's residence that he calmed down.
The master arranged Shitou and Ren Xin's residence to be far apart. Shitou didn't worry about Ren Xin being here, so he kept company here. Seeing Zhan Yue coming, he couldn't help but take a look at Zhan Yue. This child was very strange.
It seems that he has identified Ren Xin and doesn't trust anyone, but he just trusts Ren Xin to be good to him.
It was time for Shi Shi to leave. Seeing that Zhan Yue wanted to stay and sleep with Ren Xin, he couldn't help but pull Zhan Yue over and asked, "Zhan Yue, how old are you this year?"
"Nine years old." Zhan Yue didn't waste any words. He simply finished speaking and returned to Ren Xin's side. Too many things happened today. He felt that only staying by Ren Xin's side was the safest and most at ease.
Nine years old, Ren Xin is fifteen, a difference of six years.
"Zhan Yue, you are already nine years old. At this age, you should learn to avoid suspicion. Men and women are not allowed to be intimate. You cannot sleep in the same room with your sister. If you are afraid, you can come with me." In the eyes of Stone,
Nine years old is not too young, not to mention that Zhan Yue seems to be more precocious than other children. He cannot let Zhan Yue stay in Ren Xin's room like this.
Ren Xin couldn't laugh or cry when he saw Shitou so seriously telling a child the principle of avoiding suspicion between men and women. Why did he even mind a child? Zhan Yue was only nine years old, even if he was calmer and calmer than ordinary children when encountering problems,
But after all, he is just a child. He didn't live in China, so how could he know so much?
Zhan Yue looked at the stone blankly, half understanding, "But when grandma was here, I always slept with grandma..." Zhan Yue said innocently.
At the mention of Zhan Yue's grandma, Ren Xin's nose became sore and her expression darkened. She pulled Zhan Yue over and held him in her arms distressedly. If what happened today had been changed to someone else, she would have at most looked at it, but she would never
She would not mind her own business, but Zhan Yue was different. Although they met by chance, Ren Xin believed that this was a kind of fate. For example, there were so many people on the street, and Zhan Yue decided that she would help him.
And it can help him. For example, Zhan Yue's stubbornness actually made Ren Xin see her own shadow in him.
Ren Xin has always believed in such things as fate.
"Shitou, he's just an ignorant child. What's the point of arguing with him? If he wants to stay here, he'll just stay. You see, the bed in this room is not too small. It's enough for the two of us to sleep in." Ren Xin said.
Seeing that Shitou seemed to want to say something else, he pushed him to the door and started chasing people away, "Okay, okay, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early. You don't know what you will face tomorrow."
What are you doing, have a good rest."
Shitou was pushed out by Ren Xin without saying a word. He only heard the sound of closing the door quickly behind him. He looked back helplessly at the shadow reflected on the window paper in the brightly lit room, "Just an ignorant child."
"Then it's all a boy, okay?" However, Ren Xin is right. It's getting late, so it's better to go to bed earlier. The county magistrate obviously has bad intentions. With Zhan Yue here tonight, he should be fine.
, I still don’t know what will go wrong tomorrow, I have to be mentally alert to face it.
Ren Xin wrung out the towel to wipe Zhan Yue's face, but Zhan Yue didn't need it. He took the towel and wiped it himself. Looking at this independent child, Ren Xin felt a little relieved for his grandma. He could take good care of her alone.
After Zhan Yue wiped his face, he saw Ren Xin sitting aside and looking at him, so he slightly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled politely at Ren Xin.
"It's really rare that so many things happened today, but you, a child, can still be so calm now." Zhan Yue looked at Ren Xin quietly and did not answer. He felt so at ease just because he was by her side. Maybe
This kind of peace of mind comes from the mask given to Ren Xin by his master.
Ren Xin smiled faintly, "Humans, you should live indifferently in this life." Looking at Zhan Yue's clean eyes, he saw the calmness that he should not have at such a young age. If he added some agility, it would really be like this.
It's amazing to Ling'er. Come to think of it, Ling'er seems to be only nine years old, and the two of them are exactly the same age.
"Are you nine too?" Ren Xin thought of this question and asked, but as soon as she said the words, she felt that she was wasting her time. Zhan Yue had already mentioned her age just now. She smiled softly, Zhan Yue
I didn't understand what was wrong with her, so she just nodded slightly in agreement.
Ren Xin took Zhan Yue's towel, threw it into the water, pulled Zhan Yue to sit down on the chair, sat down opposite him, propped up her chin and stared into Ren Xin's eyes, which made Zhan Yue feel a little restless.
, she said calmly: "You know, I have a sister, a biological sister, her name is Ren Xin, she is about the same age as you, she is also nine years old."
"Well, that's great." Zhan Yue didn't understand why Ren Xin suddenly mentioned her sister, and didn't know what to say. However, Ren Xin's sister made him a little envious and curious at the same time.
Having a sister like this seems very reassuring.
"Yeah, it's great." Ren Xin was still looking into Zhan Yue's eyes. The little face in front of her overlapped with the shadow in her memory, and seemed to have many similarities. "You know? You both have the same pair of eyes."
Very clean and beautiful eyes, but the difference is that your eyes are always calm and calm, while her eyes are always moving around, making her look very naughty."
It seems that, in addition to the eyes, Zhan Yue and Ling'er's face shapes are also somewhat similar. They both have a melon face, with the baby fat unique to this age. The difference is that Ling'er is simple and cute, and always gives people a sense of agility.
It has a playful feel, but Zhan Yue is very calm, giving people a sense of stability.
Watching, watching, Ren Xin seemed to understand the reason why she would help Zhan Yue. It was really because of fate. If not for fate, how could Zhan Yue look so similar to Ling'er? They were still about the same age.
"Sister Xin, then you like your sister Ling'er very much." Zhan Yue saw Ren Xin looking at him as he recalled her sister, and suddenly remembered his unsatisfactory brother who was imprisoned by the county magistrate.
I couldn't help but feel a little lonely in my heart, and the thoughts that I couldn't hide were exposed on my face, and Ren Xin could see it clearly.
Ren Xin flicked Zhan Yue's forehead to bring his thoughts back, and smiled, "Of course I like my sister very much. It is fate that you and her look so similar. From now on, I am also your sister.
Of course I like you too, are you willing to recognize me as your sister?"
Zhan Yue listened blankly to Ren Xin's words, a little surprised. He jumped down from the chair in a hurry, grabbed Ren Xin's sleeve, for fear that she would regret it, "Sister, this is what you said, from now on
You are my sister, wherever you go, I will follow you, to the end of the world..."
"Ends of the world?" Ren Xin didn't know where the child heard this word. It always felt a little strange to hear such exciting words from a calm child like Zhan Yue. However, since he wanted to be someone else's
The child's sister should naturally act like a sister and take good care of him.
"Well, from now on, I am your sister. As long as I am here, I will never let others bully you." Ren Xin looked at Zhan Yue's eyes and actually saw him as Ling'er, thinking that if Ling'er also
After suffering all this pain from Zhan Yue, she would definitely not forgive herself. Involuntarily, Ren Xin hugged Zhan Yue.
Her eyes touched the mask previously placed on the table. Ren Xin remembered that Zhan Yue seemed to trust Ren Xin to help him because of this mask. She reached for the mask and clasped it on Zhan Yue's face. The mask was a bit big.
, and Zhan Yue's face was too small to be displayed at all. He held up the mask on his head with both hands, revealing his handsome little face, and looked at Ren Xin innocently. Those clean eyes made Ren Xin feel relaxed and happy.
"I saw you liked this mask very much before, so I gave it to you." Ren Xin said generously. After recognizing a younger brother, you should give him a greeting gift, right? Since Zhan Yue likes it, let's give it to him. But,
There is one thing she still has to ask, "Zhan Yue, you said before that this mask was given to me by 'that person'. Who is the 'that person' you mentioned? Just based on the mask he gave me, you can
Just believe me, is this mask special or is 'that person' special?"
Zhan Yue held the mask in his arms, feeling warm in his heart. Ren Xin asked him and he didn't intend to hide it, "That person is my master. I don't know where the master comes from, but he is very special to me. This
The mask is his favorite, and he will give it to you to show that you are also special."
As Zhan Yue spoke, a smile gradually appeared on his face, which showed how important the master he mentioned was to him.
He will never forget that four years ago, when he was thrown by Zhan Qi on the roadside and could not find his way home, it was snowing heavily and he was hungry and cold. The person who picked him up and gave him food.
"What did your master teach you?" Thinking of Zhan Yue's stealing, Ren Xin couldn't help but feel that he might have misbehaved. If that master was a good person, how could Zhan Yue steal?
Seeing that Ren Xin's expression seemed to have misunderstood something, Zhan Yue hurriedly wanted to explain, but he didn't expect that someone knocked on the door at this time. The voice seemed to be the county magistrate, "Miss Ren, are you asleep?"
