Brother Wanfu

Chapter 44
The sound of wind and people around disappeared in an instant, Qin Tian's ears were ringing, she couldn't believe the sudden arrival of the person in front of her.

"That's it, lost it?"

Qin Tian couldn't answer his question, and his tone was full of reproaches.

Under his prestige, Qin Tian couldn't tell whether she was afraid or wronged, her nose was sour, and she replied in a low voice.

"Isn't it that elder brother doesn't like wearing bracelets?"

She said it tactfully, but to put it bluntly, he was the one who didn't want to refuse first.

However, after she said this, the young man's voice became lower and lower.

"I don't like it. Of course others like it. Why don't you send it?"

to whom?
Qin Tian was stunned by his question.

But his tone was very similar to when she first entered the Qin Mansion, and after she lived in the Liefeng Mountain House, and even after the banquet at the academy, she had never heard his tone like this again.

What did she do to displease him?
If he didn't like it, he came over suddenly at this moment, what was he doing to stop her from throwing away the bracelet?
Qin Tian didn't understand, but under his gaze, he didn't dare to speak anymore.

The little girl bit her lip, lowered her head and said nothing.

Qin Shen looked down, feeling more and more upset.

There are too many lanterns floating in the river in the city, bright and erratic, dazzling people's eyes, making people uncomfortable.

I don't know if it was because he grew up in a Taoist temple in the mountains, but Qin Shen always had a slight rejection of the excitement. He always thought it was a habit, but today he suddenly felt that it was the excitement of the ordinary world that made people unable to calm down.

Just like right now, she obviously didn't speak, but he reached out from the lantern and took out the mahogany bracelet from the flames, raised his hand and handed it to her.

"Take it, send it to someone else."

He suppressed his voice and tried to remain calm and gentle.

But the bracelet was almost stuffed in front of Qin Tian's eyes.

Qin Tian accepted it in surprise and bewilderment.

In just a short while, Qin Tian had already thought back and forth over ten times about what he had done these past few days.

She wondered where on earth she had offended him, that he would have such an attitude.

But she couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time.

Perhaps, he just suddenly hated her and returned to his initial feelings for her.

After all, she has such an identity, and she is said to be brother and sister with him, but she is separated by a concubine.
Qin Tian's nose became more and more sore, he lowered his head and remained silent.

The wind quietly passed between the two of them, and the moonlight reflected on the river surface, reflecting a silvery white light, which was disturbed by the river lamp and scattered finely.

Qin Shen saw the little girl in front of him, and suddenly a drop of crystal water fell from her eyes, and landed on the peach wood bracelet with a click.

Qin Shen was startled, as if he was also hit by the water drop, the nameless fire in his chest was instantly extinguished.

".Why are you crying?"

Qin Shen was at a loss.

Qin Tian didn't know why she was crying, so she hurriedly wiped away the tears with her sleeve, while hastily wiping away the tear stains, she denied saying "no", but the tears gathered more and more, falling down cracklingly.

At first Qin Tian tried to cover it up, but later he couldn't cover it up at all.

Tears couldn't stop falling, Qin Shen's heart seemed to be hit by a torrential rain, he took out a handkerchief and wiped it under her eyes in a panic.

"Don't cry."

Qin Tian didn't expect him to be like this, and walked towards him with his eyes wide open.

How could Qin Shen look at her with eyes full of water like this.

Her mouth was astringent and bitter, but she had to slow down her voice.

"I don't blame you."

"But elder brother should blame me." Qin Tian shook his head.

Qin Shen was slightly startled, but heard the little girl's voice hoarse.

"I know that the bracelets I carved are poorly crafted. I just saw Chunzhen carved five-poison peach wood bracelets at the stall today, to ward off evil spirits for my brother, so I followed her and carved three of them."

"I wore one myself, and gave one to Shen Xiao. Shen Xiao's eldest brother died young, and I couldn't see her alone. There was another one. I wanted to take it back to my brother, but I forgot to engrave it myself. Rough, not worthy of elder brother, if elder brother blames me for giving you such an unbearable thing, it should be, it turns out that I didn't think carefully."

After she finished speaking, she stepped back slightly, and Qin Shen's hand holding the handkerchief suddenly disappeared.

He looked at the mahogany chain.

It turned out that the peach wood chain on Li Weizhen's wrist today was carved by his sister, and the bracelet carved by Qin Tian was given to Shen Xiao, so he brought it back and ran to Xifeng Pavilion to give it to him.

The first time she came, she couldn't even enter the door of Xifeng Pavilion.

But when he entered the door for the second time, he refused the mahogany bracelet.

Qin Shen's heart was suddenly gripped by someone, it hurt so tight that he couldn't breathe.

"Tian Tian."

He had never called a little girl by her baby name like this, and his voice was so soft that he couldn't even imagine it.

Qin Shen couldn't care anymore, and looked down at the bracelet in her hand that he forcibly stuffed back.

"Is it mine? Don't give this mahogany bracelet to others, why don't you give it to me?"

His eyes were full of self-blame.

Qin Tian didn't know why his brother's attitude suddenly changed, but her bracelet was originally engraved for him, even if he didn't want it, she could only put it in a lantern and let the water take it away, how could she give it to someone else.

But he asked for it again.

Qin Tian didn't understand anymore, so he looked at his expression carefully.

Qin Shen knew that she couldn't understand what he was doing, but it was just that she couldn't understand, even he couldn't explain it clearly.

But he paid more attention to the bracelet.

"Tian Tian give it to me."

He said so, what else can Qin Tian do?

She sniffled, her eyes were red from crying.

"Brother, you really don't dislike him?"

"Don't dislike it."

"That"

So why has the attitude changed so much today?
Qin Shen knew that she still had doubts, so he cleared his throat and could only find an excuse.

"It's my complicated affairs today, and my bad mood, which was transferred to you."

"Is that so?"

Qin Tian was dubious.

But what else could be the explanation?

If he really got tired of her, he probably wouldn't come this time.

"That's it."

After Qin Shen said something again, Qin Tian nodded slowly, and put the bracelet back on his hand.

The small mahogany bracelet, although poorly carved, can still see the pattern of the five poisons.

To ward off evil spirits is the best blessing for the Dragon Boat Festival.

Qin Shen took it and put the bracelet on his own hand, but it was inconvenient to tie it with one hand.

He glanced at the little girl, and the little girl also looked over.

As soon as the eyes of the two met, the little girl withdrew her gaze, as if she was a little afraid of him again, but reached out to help him fasten the bracelet.

The bracelet was slightly cold, but Qin Shen's heart suddenly felt at ease the moment she fastened the rough-carved bracelet.

After a long while of nameless chaotic emotions, most of them disappeared in an instant.

But he looked at the little girl beside him who was still not in a good mood, and avoided his gaze with her head down and said nothing, just carefully wiped the lotus lantern that he fished out with a handkerchief.

The lotus lantern got a little wet.

Qin Shen regretted it.

"Let's buy another lamp."

Qin Tian didn't respond, but got up following his will.

When she was silent, the whole street along the river seemed to be quiet, so quiet that people felt panic.

Qin Shen didn't know how to get along with the little girl all the time, so he naturally hoped that she would be like the girls chatting or frolicking by the river, playing with great interest on this Dragon Boat Festival night.

But he didn't know what to say.

On the contrary, the hawker at the lantern stall was very enthusiastic. Seeing that the two were well dressed, he quickly brought out his best lanterns.

"This lotus lantern is the most complicated, with auspicious lotus patterns painted on it. If you use this lantern to pray, the river god will be able to see it first. This pomegranate lantern is the most suitable for the occasion. In this season, pomegranate flowers are much more beautiful than lotus flowers." Well, make sure the river is full and no one else puts this in. By the way, there is this!"

As the peddler said, he took out a bright white lamp from a wooden box like a family heirloom.

"Rabbit River Lantern! Look at the white and clean appearance of this rabbit. This is made of the best paper. The girl smells it, and it has a fragrance. If ordinary people come, I am reluctant to sell it! Girl, do you like it? Want to buy one?"

Qin Tian first looked at the complicated lotus lantern he mentioned, it was really delicate, then he looked at the pomegranate lantern, it really didn't exist in the river, and finally saw the rabbit river lantern, his eyes froze.

All three lamps are good, although Qin Tian is a bit partial to the Tu'er River lamp, but the other two lamps are also very delicate.

She really hesitated.

She hadn't made up her mind yet, when she suddenly heard the brother next to her speak.

"I want all three."

Qin Tian:? !

She turned her head to look at him, finally there was a different light in her eyes from the lowness just now.

Qin Shen said it was all there, looked at the little girl carefully, but asked the peddler, "Do you have any better candles?"

He asked, how could the peddler not have one, and this time he was even more overjoyed, holding out a lot of candles, and wanted to introduce them to the two of them.

Qin Tian didn't know why his brother wanted so many river lantern candles, but he told the peddler, "Pick the three best ones."

"Come on! These three lanterns of yours must be the brightest and longest-lasting three in the river!"

"That's good."

Qin Tian had never gone shopping with his brother, so he didn't know that his brother usually didn't care about these things, and when he bought things, he actually behaved like this.

While she was thinking wildly, the peddler had already set up the lamp and set it up, and also lit the incense and sent it over.

Qin Shen nodded, and the peddler was very happy.

"A total of three taels of silver!"

For three taels of silver, it is really not cheap to buy three river lanterns.

However, Qin Tian saw his brother's indifferent attitude, he didn't even haggle over the price, and was ready to pay directly.

But he touched his waist, and there was only a piece of emerald jade tied around his waist, without a purse, and he touched his sleeves, but there was nothing in them.

Seeing him stunned, Qin Tian turned around and called Fu Wen.

"Fu Wen, come here."

Qin Tian also turned his head to look, but the streets were full of girls and daughters-in-law, and occasionally there were a few officers and soldiers, but where was Fu Wen?
On the other side of the long street along the river, Fu Wen scratched his head anxiously.

The young master came out as soon as he raised his foot. He was just a wrong eye, so he couldn't find the young master.

Fu Wen went around privately for two or three times. He couldn't believe that he would lose his son one day.

the other side.

"Fu Wen?" Qin Shen asked again.

No one responded.

Qin Tian: "."

Qin Shen: "."

Without a purse or guard, Qin Shen suddenly lost his voice when he saw the three expensive river lanterns sold to Qin Tian and the eager look of the peddler.

This.
Qin Shen was inexplicably stiff.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the emotionally depressed little girl suddenly laughed out loud.

There was a small sound like a crackling candle, and when the candle was lit, her smile painted her whole face.

Qin Shen rolled his eyes.

She pursed her lips and smiled, and in his embarrassment, took out the money bag.

"I'll pay for it."
