Suddenly, Xiao Cunyu was frightened so much that her soul almost died. She closed the book with a "snap" and raised her eyes. Her third brother was looking at her with a smile.
For a moment, Xiao Cunyu broke out in a cold sweat.
He swallowed involuntarily, then hid the book behind him and chuckled, "Third brother is here? Why didn't you say hello? I was scared to death... It's just some miscellaneous books, nothing special."
"Miscellaneous books? What are they about? I just saw the name written on the cover seems to be "Spring Pity". It's strange that I have never read this book before. Is it a collection of poems or a farming book?" Xiao Guantang was really curious.
He just appeared and took a glance, and seemed to see that there was a picture inside, but he couldn't see clearly what the picture was.
"Heh..." Xiao Cunyu licked his lips and immediately served tea. "Brother San, please sit down. Brother San, have some tea!"
"What kind of book is it?" Xiao Guantang still looked quite innocent.
Xiao Cunyu scratched his head. "It's just a book men like. My classmates all love to read it! I just took a quick look. Third brother, you'd better not read this Mandarin version, lest it dirty your eyes."
Storybook?
Xiao Guantang was a little disappointed. He really didn't like reading storybooks. It would be better for him to write more articles that would benefit the country and the people with that time.
Seeing that he had lost interest, Xiao Cunyu breathed a sigh of relief.
She was too embarrassed to show that kind of thing to such a noble Third Brother.
"Seventh brother, thank you very much for the painting you sent me. I really like it, but I don't have anything good to give you in return. After thinking about it, I decided to send you some books. If you have any questions in the next few days, you can ask me. I will stay in your yard. How about it?" Xiao Guantang said again.
When Xiao Qi heard this, he almost jumped up.
"No need to return the gift!" Xiao Cunyu said nervously, "I don't have any guest rooms in my yard..."
"That doesn't matter. My brother and I sleep with our feet touching each other. I also want to know how my seventh brother has been living outside these years..." Xiao Guantang said.
He was very curious about his younger brother, especially wanting to know where the "Taiping Tu" came from.
My seventh brother seems to be very knowledgeable. I wonder if he will have the honor to listen to a few of my remarks.
Xiao Cunyu felt a little dizzy.
"Third brother, do you have to live in my yard?" Xiao Cunyu asked tentatively.
"Why not?" Xiao Guantang asked calmly.
Xiao Cunyu was silent for a while, then shouted outside: "Tie Yi!"
Tieyi was a huge man, and he immediately appeared in front of the two brothers. Xiao Cunyu said, "Your bed is big enough, and Third Brother will sleep with you. You must protect Third Brother well and don't let him roll off the bed, understand?"
"Yes!" Tieyi responded straightforwardly.
"Seventh brother, what are you doing..." Xiao Guantang was a little confused and a little disappointed.
He thought his seventh brother was looking forward to chatting with him... Could it be that he felt that he was a bit long-winded and not as straightforward as his eldest brother?
"I'm used to being alone. How about you and Tieyi stay here tonight, Third Brother, and let Zhule clean up a room tomorrow?" Xiao Cunyu laughed.
She will go out immediately tomorrow morning.
Anyway, it's not the first time. I'm sure Third Brother will get used to it. If he does it in such a tactful way a few times, he should know when to stop, right?
"It's all my fault that I didn't take care of you all these years and left you lonely." Xiao Guantang sighed, but did not blame Xiao Cunyu for being impolite.
It’s so pitiful that my seventh brother has become accustomed to being alone.
Xiao Cunyu didn't want to listen to his third brother talking about poetry and songs, so he started pretending to be sleepy and quickly pushed the man out.
Before going to bed, Xiao Guantang thought about it and felt that it was necessary to get to know his seventh brother's preferences better.
It was not easy to order Seventh Brother's men around, so he went out of the yard and called a servant over: "Go to the bookstore tomorrow morning and buy a copy of 'Spring Pity' and bring it back to me."
