Chapter 104 He Wants Wen Xingluo to Regret Choosing the Wrong Brother
Wei Si slowly knelt down in front of Wen Xingluo.
She held up the girl's face, looked at her for a long time, and suddenly hugged her in her arms.
Wen Xingluo blinked.
A woman's embrace is warm.
It was a softness that she had never experienced in her two lifetimes.
Wen Xingluo clutched the woman's sleeves, buried his head in her arms, and his tears silently wet his clothes.
"Mother..."
…
The withered lotus leaves listen to the night rain for several more times.
As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, the King of Hanzhong hurriedly sent troops to bring Chen Lezhi home.
Chen Lezhi said goodbye to Wen Xingluo and reluctantly set out on his journey home.
The Zhenbei Palace celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival with great enthusiasm. Xie Shian also packed his bags and set out to join the army with his group of friends.
Wen Xingluo took a carriage to see him off on the outskirts of the city.
Xie Guanlan had the intention of rebelling against the imperial court, so the southwestern army always maintained a state of combat readiness and actively recruited young people to join the army. When the royal carriage drove to the north of the city, there were many people seeing him off on the Changting Ancient Road.
Wen Xingluo lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at Xie Shian riding on horseback. Thinking of how good he had been to her, she couldn't help but feel reluctant to leave.
She said, "Brother Four, come back and visit when you have time."
Xie Shian, with his red-tasseled spear on his back and a handsome horse in bright clothes, looked unruly and said with a bright smile, "I'll make some military achievements and come back to make Ningning proud!"
Wen Xingluo wanted to laugh, but when she curled her cherry lips, her eyes became wet unconsciously.
She held back her bitter tears and said, "It doesn't matter if I haven't made any military achievements. Fourth brother, you have to protect yourself."
Before Xie Shian could say anything, the group of playboys around him started shouting, "Sister Ningning, can you please pay attention to us? Our kung fu is not as good as Xie Si's! Oh, and by the way, sister made these cakes and fruit balls for Xie Si, we want to eat them too!"
"Go away, my sister is talking to me, what's it to you?!" Xie Shian chased them away like a chicken, and looked at Wen Xingluo with a serious look, "When I'm not in the mansion, if you are bullied by Wen Rufeng and his gang of bastards again, go tell your elder and second brothers and ask them to take care of you! If you are wronged, speak up. I, Xie Si's sister, don't need to swallow my anger!"
Wen Xingluo also nodded solemnly, holding back tears and saying, "I'll remember!"
She watched Xie Shian and his good brothers disappear into the distance.
Fortunately, the fourth brother has a group of good friends who share the same ideals, so he doesn't feel lonely in the military camp...
She was in a daze when a surprised voice suddenly came:
"Little sister, are you here to send my third brother off to join the army too?"
Wen Xingluo looked over and saw that the person speaking was Wen Yueyin.
Perhaps it was because she used Xu Miaomiao's dowry, she was dressed in silk and had pearl hairpins in her hair, looking very rich.
Following behind her were Wen Rufeng and Wen Ruyun, all of whom were dressed up like decent people.
Wen Rulei was there too.
He looked unwell, as if shrouded in a haze. When he looked at her, his eyes were particularly complicated, with a hint of hatred in them.
As they approached, Wen Yueyin smiled sweetly and said, "I thought my younger sister wouldn't come, but I didn't expect you to come early. I knew that even though my younger sister used to be mean to me, she was still thinking about me. It's such a big deal for me to enlist in the army, and yet you came in person after all."
Wen Rufeng and Wen Ruyun's faces were full of approval.
Wen Rufeng smiled and said, "In my opinion, Xingluo, you have never let go of us brothers. As the eldest son and your big brother, I will take this opportunity to make a decision here. Don't mention the past anymore. From now on, we are still brother and sister!"
Wen Ruyun waved his folding fan, smiling wickedly, and said, "Wen Xingluo, why do you have to look speechless? After hearing what big brother said, you must be overjoyed in your heart, right?"
Wen Xingluo: “…”
She tried to speak slowly, making sure they could hear every word she said. "I'm here today to send my fourth brother off to join the army. I didn't know my third and fourth brothers would be leaving on the same day."
Wen Yueyin covered her lips and chuckled, "Little sister has loved lying since she was young. You said you came to see Xie Shian off, but where is he?"
Wen Xingluo: "He has already left, and I was just about to go back home."
"Humph!" Wen Ruyun sneered, "Just pretend, who can outshine you?"
Wen Rufeng followed suit, "Alright, stop making excuses. Now that you've seen your third brother, you should feel a little happier. If you have anything for your third brother, give it to him right away. Otherwise, if he really leaves, you'll start crying in secret again. By then, I'll be studying with Master He, and your second brother will be busy with business. We won't have time to coax you!"
Wen Xingshi really didn't want to pay attention to them.
She told the driver, "Go back home."
The palace carriage slowly left.
Wen Xingluo thought for a moment, pulled aside the curtains, and threw a used brass shoe horn at them.
Her voice faded away along with the carriage, "For Third Brother!"
Shoe horns are the least valuable and often come into contact with the heels, so many people dislike shoe horns that have been used by others.
No matter how narcissistic these four siblings are, they should be able to see that she is truly fed up with them, right?
The carriage moved further and further away.
Wen Rufeng and others looked down at the shoe horn thrown on the ground.
Wen Rufeng frowned, "This shoe horn..."
After pondering for a long time, he leaned over to pick it up and lovingly stroked the four characters "Zhenbei Palace" engraved on it. "This shoe horn was made by the royal palace. Look at the pattern and the workmanship. How can an ordinary person use this?! If you are willing, please give it to me. I want to take it back to the palace and use it every day."
Hearing this, he was speechless.
In his previous life, my eldest brother was a newly crowned scholar and a new noble in the court. He had seen all kinds of good things, so how could he be attracted and moved by something like this?
It's simply a debasement!
He was fed up with his current big brother and said coldly, "Take it if you want!"
Ignoring Wen Rufeng's joyful expression as he hid the shoe horn, he stared hatefully at the departing carriage.
His brother and Yue Yin thought that Wen Xingluo came to see him off, but he knew very well that Wen Xingluo came for Xie Shian.
Does she care about Xie Shian that much?
But what's so good about Xie Shian? Isn't he just accompanying her to and from school, treating her to snacks, and standing up for her when she is bullied?
Besides these, what else has he done?
Wen Rulei clenched his fists so hard that they creaked.
He wants to make a name for himself and achieve military merit.
He wants Wen Xingluo to regret choosing the wrong brother!
Wen Yueyin didn't know what he was thinking. She took the bundle from the maid and urged, "Third brother, you have the upper hand. When you get to the military camp, you must rise to the occasion and strive to be the best. You must strive to achieve success as soon as possible, regain your former glory, and earn honor for me!"
Wen Rulei took the bundle and looked at her deeply.
Ever since his father went to jail and his eldest brother got married, he found that his once favorite sister had become more hypocritical and selfish.
So he ignored her and climbed onto his horse impatiently.
Wen Yue frowned slightly when she saw him like this, tears welling up in her eyes: "Why don't you say anything, Third Brother? But what did I do wrong to make you angry?"
It is already late autumn.
She covered her lips, coughed with her shoulders shaking in the cold wind, and looked very sick and pitiful.
Wen Rulei frowned.
After all, she was his beloved sister for many years. Seeing Wen Yueyin crying, although he was annoyed, the anger in his chest unconsciously dissipated a little.
In the final analysis, it was because he and his elder and second brothers doted on Yue Yin too much that she developed such selfish habits.
Fortunately, she is young now and can still change.
He slowed down his tone and said, "I'm not angry. It's you who's worrying too much. I can give you honor and face, but you can't ask for it. Remember that?"
