Chapter 140: Blood Brothers and Dog Brothers
The little eunuch behind the fourteenth elder brother saw it and thought, if the fourth elder brother came every day, then he would not have to compete with the younger elder brother every morning.
He had to worry about losing so much hair just to get out of bed.
Lu Zhi, who was following Brother Four, happened to see this scene. Before Brother Fourteen was about to shout, he spoke up: "It's so cold outside. Brother Fourteen, please put on your clothes quickly to avoid freezing."
The fourteenth elder brother stopped and was taken back by the young eunuch to serve him well.
By the time he chased him to Brother Ten's house, the two puppies inside were already trying to find their new territory.
"Puppy, there is a puppy." Brother Fourteen purred.
The two cubs' tentative footsteps stopped again.
They are back to back, as if seeking familiar support.
Even though they often fight over each other in private, and fight till their fur flies, they are still the closest brothers.
On the bed, the little man wrapped as a caterpillar seemed to be moving.
Brother Si coughed lightly.
The fourteenth elder brother then turned around and saluted his brother who was sitting spontaneously on the Huanghuali four-head official hat chair: "Yinqi has met the fourth brother and the fourth sister-in-law."
An old lady in the tenth elder brother's house saw the fourth elder brother and his wife and hurriedly went to the dining room to urge the meal to be passed on.
The remaining maids are obviously not very clever, and they have not served hot tea yet.
Come to think of it, even if the little master wants to drink warm water in the winter, they have to cook it temporarily.
Lu Fei frowned. Concubine Wen Xi's coffin was still parked outside the Chaoyang Gate. The people around the Tenth Prince were already so careless, how could they pay it forward in the future?
As expected, losing your biological mother is like having a stepfather.
In contrast to the prince Yinreng who also lost his mother at a young age, Kangxi personally took the young prince to Qianqing Palace and took good care of him.
The tenth prince is a little older than the original Yinreng, but he is still a child.
Just like this weed, let it grow on its own.
I am afraid that the tenth brother has not gone to the study for several days, and the emperor has not asked about it.
With such partiality, Lu Zhi was quite speechless for a moment.
Brother Fourteen followed his brother's gaze and shook his head pretending to be mature: "Brother Four, don't look at it. Brother Ten has been like this these past few days. Brother Ninth and I called him, but there was no movement. Brother Ninth said, let him be quiet, and Thirteen also said the same. Brother Four, Brother Four, did you bring this dog to me?"
Fourth Brother and his wife looked at Little Fourteen in front of them expressionlessly.
He was really a heartless naughty kid. I didn’t know whether to be grateful or to beat him first.
The caterpillar on the Arhat's couch didn't hear the sound. It moved its legs and its head thumping, as if it wanted to get out and take a look.
Only then did I hear the cold voice of Fourth Elder Brother: "No."
Xiao Shisi curled his lips and said, "There are two of them here. I understand. Is one for Brother Ten and one for me?"
"No."
Brother Fourteen’s eyes widened and he couldn’t believe it: “Is it possible that the other one is for Thirteen? His house is quite far away from here!”
This time Si Age didn't answer.
The caterpillar was still listening hard under the quilt, but there was no sound, so he couldn't help but stick out his head.
At first glance, he saw Si Fujin's gentle eyes and looked at him: "Don't you like dogs? Do you want to get up and take a look?"
The tenth brother's head, which had little hair left, was in a mess, and his eyes were still as red as a bunny. He was about to open his mouth when he realized that his throat was extremely dry.
Lu Zhi then brought the warm water that he had ordered people to boil and sprinkled some salt in it.
The tenth prince blushed and drank it all in one gulp: "Yes."
The little guy got up with a grunt, his steps still a bit frivolous.
He came to the two puppies.
The little native dog who was still huddled in a ball suddenly raised his head and stared at the young boy in front of him.
Brother Dog's obvious black nose moved, he lifted up the yellow melon seeds and took a small step forward.
The fourteenth elder brother squatted behind the tenth elder brother, his face full of surprise, but he covered his mouth in time.
Why?
As soon as he got closer, the two puppies huddled together in fear.
Now that Brother Ten is here, they actually get close to him.
snort! As expected of being Fourth Brother's dog, she really doesn't like him either.
Brother No. 10 didn't care about the naughty child's mental activities. A trace of joy slowly appeared in his red eyes: "It's not afraid of me."
Lu Pheasant and Fourth Brother looked at each other.
Those who have raised dogs as a couple understand the reason.
When humans cry, they emit a different smell.
Dogs have a keen sense of smell. At this time, they will be curious about human emotions and can't help but get closer.
Especially the cubs couldn't control themselves. The curiosity defeated the fear, and Brother Dog took this step.
From the perspective of a sad human being, the puppy looked at it with wet eyes and slowly approached it, full of compassion, as if silently comforting it.
This is undoubtedly the best companionship for the tenth prince who has just lost his mother and is immersed in great grief.
Ergouzi, who was even more afraid of strangers, still stayed where he was.
But this didn't stop Brother Ten from feeling heavy, because the arrival of these two pups finally caused a slight disturbance.
Originally a young man who didn't know anything about sorrow, he encountered such a big change and fell into despair for a while.
Once you are willing to speak, talk to people, even if you are in contact with small animals, and open your heart, the sadness will slowly heal over time.
The tenth brother and the dog brother in front of him looked at each other for a long time, then turned back and said: "Greetings to the fourth brother."
Brother Si has not answered yet.
The tenth elder brother said anxiously: "Didn't the fourth elder brother refuse to send me off before?"
Lv Zhidaifu replied: "My tenth brother misunderstood your fourth brother. Previously, it was because they were still small and they were brought from somewhere else. They changed places in a short period of time. In addition, you have no experience, so you thought about the lamp." When they are older, I will give them to you. No, the brothers haven't given names yet, they are just waiting for the master, the tenth brother."
Brother Ten's eyes became brighter again: "Are you going to give them all to me? What should I call them..."
Little Fourteen jumped out quickly for fear of being ignored: "Brother Ten, Brother Ten, give me one, and I will help you pick a name."
Brother Ten's eyes moved to Little Fourteen with difficulty: "This, Fourteen, Brother Ninth also chose them at that time. If I give them to you, I'm afraid it won't be easy for Brother Ninth to explain."
The fourteenth elder brother was naturally not very happy, but in front of him was the tenth elder brother who was finally willing to crawl out from under the quilt. It was hard for him to get angry at the tenth elder brother.
snort! Brother Ten has always been partial to Brother Ninth, just like his own brother has always been partial to Brother Thirteen.
That's all, he won't care about Brother Ten today.
As for my brother, they had countless quarrels anyway, so this matter still has to be blamed on my brother.
Xiao Fourteen made a mental note and turned to smile at Brother Ten: "Okay then. But if Brother Ninth doesn't want to raise him, Brother Ten must remember Xiao Fourteen~"
The sad face of Brother Ten was not used to smiling for a while, so he slowly squeezed out a smile and nodded: "Okay."
Brother Si on the side was stimulated by Xiao Si's coquettish "Oh" with wavy lines. He said coldly: "It's obviously your brother who brought the dog to me. Why didn't Si Si beg me first?"
