wolf inadvertently

I said: "So, don't say your son's words one by one, I feel uncomfortable. You scholars are so annoying. You have to take a few words so seriously. Those who don't know think that What kind of talk conference is going to be held. Just call me Wen Yan."

"Okay, Wen Yan." Shen Nianjun smiled, "Speaking of which, it's a coincidence that our names can make up a poem."

I said: "What's the matter, there will be more coincidences in the future."

Shen Nianjun asked doubtfully, "Ah...?"

I paused and said, "...it's nothing, let's eat."

Shen Nianjun nodded lightly and said, "...OK."

Shen Nianjun took a piece of food with chopsticks, chewed it carefully for a long time, and said hesitantly, "Well, Wen Yan...today...I'm really sorry..."

I said, "Huh? What?"

Shen Nianjun said: "Just... you could have lived with us without wasting money..."

I smiled and said: "Hey, what am I supposed to be? This money is nothing to me. And I have already said that I live alone now, and it is not interesting to live alone. I come out to stay for a night occasionally. It’s good to have a taste of your delicacies and chat with you.”

Shen Nianjun lowered his head and smiled, "How do you know the food here is delicious?"

"..."

I thought to myself, this question is very mysterious, and I don’t know if it’s because I have a guilty conscience. I always feel that this sentence can be translated as “Have you eaten here before?”.

I thought for a while and said, "Ah...you look like the kind of person who can cook..."

Shen Nianjun said: "Huh? Really?"

"..."

Sure enough, it is easy to say the wrong thing when my mind is disturbed. What am I thinking?Actually said that a scholar can cook very well at a glance?

In fact... Shen Nianjun is really handsome, and you can tell from his speech and demeanor that he is a well-educated scholar...

But if I explain or change my words now, it seems too deliberate...Maybe it's just me being guilty and thinking too much, maybe people don't think so?

So, I nodded seriously and said, "Yes."

Shen Nianjun smiled and said: "It's really just doing it casually, practice makes perfect."

His smile also dispelled my nervousness and embarrassment. I sighed and said, "That's not necessarily true. Since I was a child, my parents and elder brother have always forced me to study and practice martial arts. My second elder brother is also a bookworm, but I It’s just that I can’t read anything with words. Moreover, I feel uncomfortable when I touch the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. No matter how familiar this thing is, it’s not a coincidence, at most it’s boring.”

Shen Nianjun was so teased by me that he couldn't help laughing out loud. He covered it with his sleeve and said, "You are lively and active. Things like reading that require long-term sitting will definitely not interest you. Then your martial arts should Did you practice well?"

I said: "That's it...you can use swords, guns and axes, and you can do it with bare hands. In fact, it's really hard to say whether martial arts is high or not. It depends on who you compare with. With my elder brother If it is with my second brother, I guess I can only be beaten, but with my second brother, I can easily beat him."

Shen Nianjun smiled and said: "You can tell that you are being modest at first glance. Since civil and martial arts are not your interest, then you must have something you like, right? That day I heard you playing the flute so well, could it be that your interest is In rhythm?"

I nodded and said: "Compared to reading and fighting, it is considered."

In fact, I'm not ashamed to tell him that my only interests are eating meat and drinking in big bowls and sleeping late without any restraint.

After all, I still want to come to him for dinner often in the future, so before I get to know him well, I must carefully maintain my image.

Shen Nianjun said: "Wen Yan... Actually, I always wanted to ask, what song were you playing that day?"

I thought for a while and said, "It's...it's not a song...I played it casually..."

Shen Nianjun was shocked and said, "Is this the song you composed yourself?"

I said, "Well... yes..."

I thought to myself, the lies I told this day may be as good as I have been in the previous year...

But this time there is really no way... I have to tell a lie...

Even though the Huangliang tune is almost extinct in the Yaozu, and has even been lost in the human world for thousands of years, I am not sure that people today have never heard of this Divine Comedy. If he knows, I will play such a tune for him while he is unconscious. , then I can’t explain clearly even if I don’t mean to, so I’ll just have the cheek to be the author of the Divine Comedy.

"You are really good," Shen Nianjun said, looking up at me, "I don't know if I will have the chance to listen to you again in the future."

I said: "There is no chance, if you want to hear it, I will..."

"Hey, don't, don't..." Shen Nianjun waved his hand and interrupted me, "The environment here is absolutely unworthy of your lingering celestial music, I'm afraid it will insult this divine comedy."

"..." I froze for a moment, then asked him with a smile, "Then what environment do you think is worthy?"

Shen Nianjun thought for a while and said: "Under the plum blossom tree that day... it is worthy..."

I smiled and said, "Okay, when I have a chance, I'll take you up to the hill where I live. There are two hundred-year-old plum trees in front of my house."

Shen Nianjun said: "Okay! In fact, if you say this...it will make me very ashamed...I don't know how to thank you..."

"It's okay, as long as I know it," I raised the corner of my mouth maliciously, "You really think I'm willing to play the tune for you for nothing? There's still a reward for street performers, just wait. From now on, I might come to your place for dinner every day."

Shen Nianjun smiled and said: "Welcome, welcome, that would be great. Speaking of which, I got acquainted with a spiritual pet a few days ago, that is the little white wolf raised by your second brother. It is very human, and I often catch it. It will be eaten with us when we are ready. We still can’t finish eating like this. You can come here often when you are free in the future, and I promise, it will eat with us. Everything delivered is very fresh.”

"..."

I thought for a while and said, "You like it very much?"

Shen Nianjun nodded and said: "I like it. Its snow-white fur is very beautiful, and it is very smart. Since it was raised by your second brother, it must like you very much. You will know it when you see it someday. Don't look at it's long hair." It's so majestic, it's actually quite cute."

I said: "Ah... good..."

"Mr. Wen..." The suffocating female voice rang again at the door, followed by a knock on the door, "Have you finished your meal...?"

"Eat well, come and clean up, and then you are not allowed to come in again, it's so annoying!" I said angrily.

"Hey!" The proprietress responded, and quickly came in to pack the plates and chopsticks, and ran downstairs in a hurry.

Before going out, she cast a vague glance at Shen Nianjun.

Shen Nianjun looked at me and said, "You don't like this eldest sister...?"

"Just seeing Qian's eyes open with yin and yang and strange looks... do you like her?" I asked back.

"Actually, she also has her own difficulties..." Shen Nianjun sighed softly, "She guards this inn and has to raise children, it's also very hard..."

I said disapprovingly: "Everyone has difficulties, but it's not easy for anyone."

"It's true..." Shen Nianjun murmured: "All living beings are suffering."

I said: "That's enough, that's enough. If you're late at night, you should feel less about your life. Get a good night's sleep and wake up the next day. Everything is good. All living beings are suffering, but no matter how hard people live, they still want to live." down."

Shen Nianjun smiled and said: "Well said, no matter what you have to work hard to live, this is a human being."

I shook my head and said, "Life is as short as a mayfly, but as long as a crane. This is true for all living things, not just humans."

Shen Nianjun thought about my words, nodded and said, "Well, that's right."

I said: "Okay, I have nothing to do here, I am going to sleep, you should go to rest earlier."

Shen Nianjun smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then, good night."

I also said: "Good night."

After Shen Nianjun left, I lay on the bed alone, I wanted to sleep but couldn't.

It's no wonder that I've been sleeping all day today, but now I'm awake after eating.

I thought of the question that Shen Nianjun asked me just now: "Then you must have something you like, right?"

Just now I used the rhythm to prevaricate him. After all, scholars like this are often very brain-dead. When you can’t find the answer to a question, you can’t wait to dig out your ancestral grave. In order to prevent the topic from protracting, I didn’t deny him. statement.

Thinking about it now, I realize that I really don't have anything I like...

For example, my eldest brother likes hunting and archery, my second brother likes reading and painting, and even my parents have a hobby of traveling in mountains and rivers. How can I lie to me that I can’t even think of a favorite thing?

It seems that everything I have done in the past 17 years was arranged by my father and mother, or I thought I should do it. I have never put aside all "should or not" thinking, out of I like to do it from the bottom of my heart.

And no one reminded me of this kind of thing, and I didn't care about it at all. Shen Nianjun's question today really poked me.

What do I really like?

I can't bear to think about this question carefully. After thinking about it, I fell asleep...

But fortunately, I didn't sleep here until the sun was high. When I opened my eyes, it was just dawn.

It seemed that the proprietress and Shen Nianjun hadn't woken up yet, so I got dressed, went downstairs quietly, and went back to my little mountain bag.

Because I was not in a hurry, I walked very slowly on the road. It was not yet bright, and the pines and cypresses beside the path were covered with crystal rime. The wine jar on the ground.

This thing is so delicate, it would be a pity to lose it, so I went over to pick it up, and grabbed the hemp rope tied to the neck of the bottle to carry it.

Pushing open the wooden door and entering the room, I suddenly saw a person sitting on my bed, I almost staggered in fright, the wine jar almost slipped and flew out, after I patted my chest to see who this person was My second brother, I breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards him.
