From Xiaoao to travel around the world

Chapter 60 Qiu Chuji

There are two ruined mudstone houses in the back house of Prince Wanyan's mansion.

The roof is made of thatch, the door is made of rotten wood, and the fence is made of green bamboo.

Since the completion of these two houses seven years ago, Bao Xiruo has lived here alone, rarely going out.

The only person living next to her was Yang Qing.

It is different from Yang Kang who is used to rich clothes and fine food, surrounded by servants.

Yang Qing was reticent since childhood, and liked to be alone, and she left the stage of needing care early on.

In Bao Xiruo's eyes, this eldest son who had to live with him in a dilapidated house when he was less than two years old was too different.

For example, he showed extreme intelligence at the age of three, learning any word once and never forgetting it;

For example, his nature is noble and pure, and he never disdains any rare treasures and novelties in the palace;
It also seems that he was obsessed with martial arts since he was a child, and he never let go of the bamboo sheathed sword all day long.

Compared to these, there are some things about him that Bao Xiruo can't understand: Yang Qing has never been commensurate with Wanyan Honglie and his son.

Even if he could not speak or even say a word, he really couldn't avoid it, and he just called out to the prince.

For this reason, Wanyan Honglie has expressed dissatisfaction many times, complaining that she should not have told her children about her life experience at a young age, and even later her relationship with Yang Qing became more and more distant, far less close than Yang Kang.

Although Bao Xiruo knew that she didn't take the initiative to say it, she never explained it. She just guarded this dilapidated house, hoping that one day she could reunite with her old friends and reunite with her family.

In the midsummer season, it is still sultry and hot at night.

In the candlelight, Bao Xiruo put down the clothes he was mending, walked to the window and wanted to open it wider, but he saw Yang Qing standing in the yard holding a sword in the moonlight outside.

Originally sorted according to the two sons, the name "Kang" should be given to the eldest son.But Yang Kang was weak since he was a child, so he gave it to him just to get some credit.

And Yang Qing has a strong physique since he was a child, and he is very unusual; and because he has a vine-shaped blue birthmark on his arm, he was named Yang Qing.

A child who is too strong and independent will always touch the softness in the mother's heart. For Yang Qing's hard work, she feels comforted and distressed at the same time.

"Qing'er, it's getting late at night, go to bed earlier."

Bao Xiruo walked out the door, picked up a xiu handkerchief and gently wiped the water from his forehead.

"Got it, mother."

Yang Qing smiled, but his body remained motionless.

He is only eight years old now, and his stature is half a head taller than that of an ordinary ten-year-old.

If you don't distinguish carefully, you will be mistaken for a young man.

Although he and Yang Kang are twins, the latter only reaches his chest.As they grow older, the appearance of the two gradually shows differences.

When Yang Qing watched her appearance getting closer and closer to the former life, she didn't bother to pay attention to the comments of outsiders.

"Qing'er, Mother wants to ask you something."

Seeing that he didn't move, Bao Xiruo also knew that he had this habit three years ago, so she sat down on the stone mill next to her, "Why don't you ever call him daddy?"

Yang Qing knew that she was talking about Wanyan Honglie, and said without hesitation: "Because he is not."

"You... how do you know?" Bao Xiruo never explained it to Wanyan Honglie, but she knew it in her heart, she never revealed it to Yang Qing.

"I heard what you said in your dream."

Bao Xiruo asked suspiciously, "What else did I say?"

"My father's surname is Yang, and his name is Yang Tiexin. Our family is in Niujia Village, Lin'an Prefecture, Zhejiang Province. I know all about it."

Yang Qing's feelings towards Bao Xiruo are a bit like Ning Zhongze's.

The same day and night get along, the grace of nurturing.The two are equally kind and upright, but the rigidity and the softness are completely different.

Regarding Wanyan Honglie's attitude, he knew that sooner or later there would be a section, so since Bao Xiruo mentioned it today, he simply explained it once and for all.

Bao Xiruo no longer had doubts after listening to him explain in such detail.After all, although Yang Qing is precocious, it is difficult for him to know these things if no one tells them.

"These words……"

"I've never told outsiders. If you don't ask today, I wouldn't have said it."

Bao Xiruo's complexion slowed down when she heard the words, and then she rolled her eyes, stepped forward and pinched Yang Qing's forehead lightly:

"You are the smartest, you are old-fashioned when you talk at a young age, you don't look like an eight-year-old child!"

I wasn't originally...

Glancing at the corner of his mouth, Yang Qing didn't reply.

At this moment, footsteps could be heard in his ears, but Bao Xiruo didn't seem to notice it, and was still talking to him.

After a short effort, several maids outside the courtyard opened the way with lanterns, and Wanyan Honglie walked in with Yang Kang.

"mother!"

Yang Kang is much more normal than Yang Qing.

Like an ordinary eight-year-old child, he threw himself into his mother's arms, acted coquettishly, and was very intimate, which made Bao Xiruo feel sorry for him, and then secretly glanced at Yang Qing triumphantly.

"Qing'er, you're still working hard at this late hour."

Wanyan Honglie looked at the mother and son with a smile, and then asked Yang Qing affectionately.

Yang Qing smiled and nodded at him, then ignored him.

He didn't have too strong aversion to Wanyan Honglie, but he definitely didn't have any intention of getting close.

Simply put, it is indifferent.

He still needs time to grow up, and he just wants to protect Bao Xiruo and meet Yang Tiexin, and then go to experience the magic skills of this world, perfect and improve himself.

As for Wanyan Honglie, he didn't bother to take care of everything.

If this old boy is restless and wants to escape the script and become the protagonist, he will be killed with a sword.

After all, let alone him, even if he meets Yang Tiexin in the future, Yang Qing may not be able to accept it.

Wanyan Honglie has long been used to his appearance, so he doesn't care about it.He took the food box from the maid behind him and walked towards Bao Xiruo.

"Xi Wei, I brought some snacks for you and Qing'er to try."

"Thank you, my lord."

Bao Xiruo responded with a smile.She speaks sincerely, but also smiles extremely politely.

"Mom, eat quickly, this snack is delicious!"

Yang Kang was naturally unaware of the subtle behavior of the two of them. When he saw the food box in front of him, he couldn't help opening it to present the treasure to his mother.

"Okay, mother, try it." Bao Xiruo glanced at the exquisite snacks, and said to Yang Qing, "Qing'er, don't practice anymore, come and eat something."

Yang Kang frowned after listening to her, jealousy appeared in his eyes.

He was born on the same day as Yang Qing, but he really didn't have any respect or love for this elder brother who liked to be alone since he was a child, and who overwhelmed him with everything.

Coupled with the influence of Wanyan Honglie, Yang Qing was already a complete weirdo in his heart.

For various reasons, he often opposed Yang Qing.It's just that every time I was beaten up, I ended up crying and howling, leaving behind all shadows.

Hearing Bao Xiruo greet Yang Qing at this time, his heart moved, he rushed to take out a bowl of bird's nest porridge from the food box and said, "I'll give it to brother."

Seeing that he was sensible, Wanyan Honglie and Bao Xiruo smiled and said nothing.

But he saw him running towards Yang Qing with a bowl, shouting "Brother, drink porridge", but the next moment he suddenly tripped and fell on Yang Qing.

The bowl of hot porridge in his hand was also thrown at Yang Qing.

"careful!"

Seeing that Yang Qing was about to be drenched all over his face, Bao Xiruo let out an urgent cry.

But before she stood up, she saw that Yang Qing's right hand holding the sword did not move, and his left hand flicked back with his sleeves on his sleeve without looking back.

The hot porridge that was originally thrown at him rolled back and slapped Yang Kang on the face.

Then his body flashed to the side without any trace, and Yang Kang fell to the ground screaming miserably...

"Wow~~"

"Kang'er!"

"what are you doing!?"

Bao Xiruo's cry of pain and Wanyan Honglie's reprimand sounded in his ears at the same time.

Yang Qing withdrew his sword and glanced at Yang Kang, then turned and went back to his room.

"This child is spoiled by you, how do you think he treats his brother?"

"Kang'er doesn't cry, mother is here..."

"Call the doctor quickly!"

Yang Qing listened to the commotion in the house, and it didn't stop until Wanyan Honglie carried Yang Kang and left.

"Qing'er."

Bao Xiruo pushed the door open and came in. Seeing that he was still calm, he couldn't help but blame him softly: "It's okay for you to treat Wanyan Honglie like that. Kang'er is your biological brother. How... how could you do this?"

The palms and backs of her hands are full of flesh, and she has a pure, kind and weak nature. After all, she can't say anything serious when facing her parents and children.

"Mother, you only think that you love him, but you actually hurt him."

"What did you say, you bastard?" Thinking of Yang Qingnianji, Bao Xiruo was annoyed and funny: "You bullied him like that, is it because you love him?"

Yang Qing shook his head and said: "There is a person who is afraid, in the future he...he will have a much better life."

He originally wanted to say "he will live longer in the future", but changed his words when he came to his lips.

Seeing his grown-up appearance, Bao Xiruo couldn't help laughing, went up to grab his ear and reprimanded him a few times before going back to rest.

The door opened and closed, Yang Qing heard that there was no movement outside, and suddenly asked to the dark place outside the window:
"How long are you going to eavesdrop? I'll sleep if I don't come out."

At this time, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the small courtyard was silent.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a figure came out from the shadow under the tree outside the courtyard.

Looking intently, I saw that this man was wearing a Taoist robe with black patterns on a blue background, with a black face and a white background climbing cloud shoes, a wooden hairpin on his head across the bun, a long sword inserted obliquely behind his back, floating dust in his hand, and three long beards under his chin.

Under the moonlight, Yang Qing only felt that this man's eyes were shining brightly, and he was quite calm and prestige.

"When did you find me?"
