Concubine Survival Guide

After that day, Sheng Yan discovered that many strange things had happened in Zhu Luan's courtyard.

The first strange thing started with the sixth brother.

It's strange to say that the next morning after Sheng Yan was slapped by his father, he hurriedly ate the morning food brought by Xing'er, and went out with his books in his arms. Under the scattered peach blossom trees, she waved to him.

"Hello Sixth Brother!" He stretched out his hand without hitting the smiling face, and smiled first before speaking.

The sixth young master, Long Bilian, was the posthumous son of the fifth aunt. Since he was born, he was carried by the elder to the third aunt to feed him. He was one year older and half a month older than Sheng Yan, and half a year younger than the fourth and fifth young masters.

Seriously speaking, they are not much different in age, but because Long Bilian has been weak since he was a child, he can't break the soup in spring and winter, and he can't grow any thin flesh on his face, so he looks extraordinarily thin.

Although he always looks sickly, the old man likes Xiao Liu even more than himself.Sheng Yan laughed at himself secretly, walked forward, and heard him say softly to himself: "Hello tenth brother, can you go to Qiong Academy with me?"

Sheng Yan smiled and nodded.

Sheng Yan was suffocated along the way, the sixth brother walked very slowly, he seemed to have to think for a while before taking a step, and he had to cover his heart and look around, so Sheng Yan thought he would get sick at any time.

Oh, he almost forgot, sixth brother's illness is serious, it is said that it is a pain in the heart brought out of the mother's womb.The death of his own mother, Fifth Aunt, was so strange that she died silently on the bed the night before giving birth to him, and was not discovered by the maidservant until the next morning.However, fortunately, this child's life is hard. Although the eldest lady and the second aunt said that the child might not live to full term, the elder didn't care about it, and fed all kinds of precious medicinal materials into his mouth. He didn't stop it until the first birthday banquet The mouths of each room chewed their tongues.

Sheng Yan secretly looked at his side face and muttered, but Liu Ge still had a better life, at least compared to him, no matter whether Third Aunt sincerely treats him as a son or not, at least Daddy loves him.

With a father in pain, at least he won't be beaten at every turn.

His face really hurt at that moment.

"Brother Six, do you want to ask the master how to make Chenxiang today...I don't know, can you tell me?" The slap yesterday woke up Sheng Yanling a lot, he couldn't guess that Brother Six was suddenly friendly to him Therefore, he wanted to test him quickly, so as to figure out whether he could stand in the same country with him as early as possible.

The second elder brother should have the intention to share a country with him, but the eldest lady watched too closely, and every time he got close, he was forced back to the original place.

It's not that he has no resentment towards the second elder brother, but Sheng Yan still persuades himself to think of him, after all, he got the first box of Hexiang Wan in his life, right?At a young age, he can't be too greedy.

Last night, the little beggar was too greedy. When he went to the ice cellar to steal ice, he was greedy, so he touched a piece of ice mooncake and threw it into his mouth. As a result, he got diarrhea in the middle of the night. Now he doesn't know which hut the cat is in.

Long Bilian paused lightly, raised his face slowly, and said back to him: "Tenth brother, I was sick last night and didn't have time to read. I'm afraid I will be taught by my master today."

"Ah?" Sheng Yan looked at him with a frozen smile.

"So, ahem... can the tenth brother help me later, help me... ahem..." Long Bilian not only coughed suddenly, but also blushed.

The little bookboy following him immediately took out a snow-white jade box, opened it and handed it to him. Long Bilian picked up one and put it in his mouth, holding it at the base of his tongue.

Sheng Yan wanted to wait for him to swallow it before listening to the second half of the sentence, but Long Bilian began to drag him forward slowly, and when he reached the steps in front of the Qiong Academy, he hadn't swallowed a pill yet. go down.

There was no other way, Sheng Yan, who couldn't hear the second half of the sentence, was very disturbed, and while he was in class, he was distracted thinking about what Sixth Brother meant.

Today's Fragrance Class has a different teacher, not the one with Third Aunt and relatives last time.Sheng Yan vaguely realized that Brother Six wanted to do something on his own just now, and this master was serious, not to him, but to everyone.In fact, this was exactly what Sheng Yan wanted. He couldn't stop laughing from the bottom of his heart when he saw his fourth and fifth brothers who had always looked up and looked at people deflated.

The second elder brother seemed to be smiling too, but he didn't want to recognize his expression at this time, the two of them were separated by several feet, so he had to poke his head out if he wanted to see it.However, the second brother's face was still the same as his own, still glowing red.

This glance immediately calmed Sheng Yan's mind.

Then, it was the master who asked them questions one by one, and when it was almost the sixth brother's turn, Sheng Yan was almost ready to stop the master and let him rush to answer.It's not that he's afraid of anyone, it's just that he doesn't want to offend Brother Six, who seems to have the best temper.

Even the little beggar knows that stealing cannot have a direct conflict with the nurse and the big dog.

However, before he opened his mouth as soon as his head was hot, Long Bilian jumped up from the seat, pointing to a bookcase of himself with a very ugly expression.

If it is a whole set of books, my brothers like to put them in a long and narrow book case, and sprinkle ice flakes or agarwood flakes inside, so that when they are opened, there will be a tangy aroma.Sheng Yan hadn't had time to develop this kind of habit of noble children, so naturally he didn't know the details here.And Long Bilian loves books the most. He loves the old bookcase given to him by the old man. He carries it with him every day. Just now, he opened it as usual...

Only this time, his complexion changed after he glanced at it. His pale face became a little paler, and he covered his pointed chin with his palms, and after a while he shouted in fright.

Long Bisheng walked over and looked in, covered his mouth and frowned.

The curious Fourth Young Master and Fifth Young Master also came over. After seeing it, they trembled with fright, and immediately vomited it out. The even more timid Fifth Young Master burst into tears.

Actually it's not a big deal, Sheng Yan also felt disgusted when he saw it, but it's okay to turn his face away.

The master couldn't bear it, but because he felt it was insulting to the gentleman, he asked a few schoolboys to take the contents and throw them away.Long Bilian was afraid that they would also throw away the bookcase, so he chased after him and shouted: "Throw away the things, clean them up carefully, without leaving any fishy smell, so I can get them back!"

After returning, Long Bilian's sick expression changed, and he walked up to the fourth young master and asked sharply, "Where's your little Molu?"

It turned out that a few days ago, the fourth young master asked for a rare pet, and the third aunt found him a blue bead from the Western Regions. The cat didn't want it, but he wanted a snake. The snake was all green, so it was replaced with a small dark green.But it was just yesterday that his little green thorn slipped away without saying goodbye, and went somewhere to enjoy himself.

Everyone in the yard knew that the sixth young master was most afraid of snakes.

"What do you mean?" The fourth young master was still vomiting acid water, and when he asked this, he was immediately stunned.

Long Bilian raised his slender eyebrows, stared at his face, then laughed after a while, and said: "I see, isn't it just a bottle of rose water, I asked my father for it, you I went to ask for it but didn’t get it, so you’re thinking about my fear of snakes?”

The fifth young master immediately became angry, pulled his skirt and shouted: "You are talking nonsense! I don't care about your things. If I really want it, how many comments do I want? Father won't give it? I haven't asked you yet, that is My little Molu? What did you do to my little Molu... No wonder it was there yesterday, it turned out to be you!"

"Me? Disgusting, I will peel off the belly and skin of a snake? Can you use your brains..." Long Bilian stared.

The master couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly separated the two, but it was hard to say anything, what happened, who could explain it clearly, but these two were favored young masters, and he couldn't take sides, and he also made a mistake. difficult.

Seeing that the limelight was not right, Sheng Yan quickly ran out with her books in her arms, and when she saw Men Yan's mother passing by, she pursed her lips and shouted: "Fourth brother and fifth brother are crying! Sixth brother was frightened, come outside quickly!" !"

After a while, this matter spread to several aunts and the eldest lady.

Seeing the second aunt coming, Long Bilian pursed his lips, and the hostility all over his body just now disappeared with a "swoosh", turned around and plopped down on his knees, sobbing: "Mother...cough cough... little girl Liuping always listens to my mother the most, and doesn't provoke anyone, but...ahem...why they just don't want to see me, and still...use this kind of thing to...come..."

Sheng Yan was stunned for a breath, and then he rolled his eyes and passed out.

The second aunt panicked in an instant, "Who are you, what are you doing there? Xun'er, help your sixth brother up quickly!"

The Fourth Young Master Long Bixun stared at the fallen Long Bilian with his mouth gaping, the dumb Coptis seemed to be determined.

Sheng Yan, who was standing outside the threshold, blinked, "Sixth brother is really amazing, so it's okay like this?"

At first, everyone thought it would be best to push this matter to Sheng Yan, so that everyone would be better off, but Sheng Yan slipped away so quickly this time, and seeing everyone busy around Sixth Brother made the soles of their feet feel oily.

In the end, the matter was left alone, and it ended with the third aunt getting a white snake for the fifth young master, and giving the sixth young master the red ginseng that the old master rewarded her last time.

It is very difficult for her to have a bowl of water level, but she must make a bowl of water level, otherwise he will lose the meaning of taking the sixth young master from under the eyes of the eldest lady.

But whether the sixth young master understands how lucky it is to miss the opportunity to be included in the main house is unknown.

Day by day seems to be very ordinary, and Sheng Yan ushered in a rare peace.

But soon, a second strange thing happened.

On the day when the second elder brother came to look for Sheng Yan without telling the eldest lady, Sheng Yan was standing on the top of the ladder watching the backyard of the fourth and fifth elder brothers. His idea was that the arrangement should not be the same as theirs.After looking at it for a long time, Sheng Yan clearly drew a blueprint of the backyard in his heart, and he even thought about how many pear trees to plant.

Hey, it's strange, how many of their peach blossom trees have been broken?Sheng Yan saw the fourth elder brother angrily scolding a few servant girls, and the fifth elder brother also kicked and beat the servants in the yard with his hips crossed.

Seeing that the broken peach blossom tree looked like a cut mark, Sheng Yan frowned suspiciously.

"What are you doing?" A cool cry sounded, making him make a wrong step.

Sheng Yan was so frightened that she quickly closed her eyes, thinking that she was about to fall to the ground, if she didn't fall, she would at least be a dog gnawing mud, but what is this soft feeling?

He stretched out his hand and grabbed it to the side——what a slippery brocade!

"Aren't you ready to get up?" Long Bisheng looked up at the sky and asked under him.

Sheng Yanbutt jumped up as if on fire, pulled him up in a panic, looked left and right beside him, poked his head...

A familiar knuckle was knocked on the forehead, and Sheng Yan pouted awkwardly: "Second Brother... No one saw it just now, right?"

Long Bisheng looked at him and sighed softly, pulled him and patted the dirt on his clothes, "I know what you are worried about. If someone sees it, it will be troublesome. Although I don't want to admit it, but... I really want to Always doing bad things with good intentions, hurting you once, there will be a second time, maybe there will be a third time."

Then you still stay away from me?Sheng Yan muttered in her heart, but the second elder brother was not bad to him, he probably even liked him a little bit, but he unconsciously hoped that he would get close to him.

"Actually, I'm very happy to have so many younger brothers...but..." Long Bisheng let out a sigh that didn't fit his age, "Our family seems to be different from ordinary families. My son, brother and brother Gong, playing bamboo dragonfly and playing Cuju together, it’s very interesting!”

Immediately, he paused and said, "But they dare not play with me, do you know why?"

Of course not, if someone sees them, they will say that they don't distinguish between masters and servants, and they don't know how to be superior or inferior, so they will definitely hit the board!Sheng Yan was disdainful in her heart, how could the second elder brother not even understand this?

Long Bisheng raised his hand and knocked him distractedly, "What are you thinking? At first I thought they were afraid of me, that I was arrogant and difficult to get along with, but then I realized... because we are of different status, we cannot play together of."

Hmph, it's not stipulated by those adults!Sheng Yan was furious.

"Then when I came back, I just wanted to play with my younger brother. No one knows." These words made me a little bit wronged.

Sheng Yan propped her chin and stared at his wry smile, "No way, doesn't Second Brother often play Jiulianhuan with Fourth and Fifth Brothers?"

"They, as soon as they see me, they will think carefully about every sentence, and be careful with every word, it's too boring." Long Bisheng shook his head.

"That's great, what don't you like?" Sheng Yan smiled and wrinkled his nose at him.

"Of course they don't like it. They do this because I'm the second son. If not, they would treat me like a bully..." He had already seen this from his aunts and the eldest lady. Transparent and white.

Sheng Yan nodded, "Well, I don't really understand, but what you said seems to be right."

However, the second elder brother didn't come here just to say these things, did he?

Seeing him smile, Long Bisheng showed a bright smile, his smooth forehead was as white as jade, he held the corner of his mouth and leaned into his ear and said, "Then, from now on, I will secretly come and play with you at night, okay?"

"Not good!" Sheng Yan reflexively refused, the little beggar will come in the middle of the night... Seeing Long Bisheng's dejected face, he changed his mind and said, "I'm afraid, second brother, you know, what are you doing? How could Da Furen not know what I do."

As soon as the eldest lady was moved out, Long Bisheng became discouraged, thought for a while and changed the hour and said: "Then one hour after lunch every day, you can come to see me at the rockery in the southern courtyard, okay? There are few people there, And at that time, my mother and my aunt will both take a nap, so I can pretend to take a nap, and then sneak out, wouldn't it be all right?!"

This is quite feasible, Sheng Yan smiled and replied: "Okay, I will go to you after lunch tomorrow. Second brother, you must be careful, don't let people follow you, East Ping and Xi Ping Be careful."

"Okay, got it! I don't want to slap you anymore..." He smiled and pointed to his face.

Sheng Yan laughed a little sadly, it's not that he made him suffer.That's good, but he still owes favors.

After sending away his second elder brother who was particularly persistent in cultivating a brotherhood with him, Sheng Yan knew another strange thing before turning off the lights that night.

It was Xiao Xi who brought the news in a hurry, "Ten, ten young masters, follow me to Second Auntie's place, Eldest Master... Eldest Master's face was burnt! Ouch, how could this be so good? thing!"
