Chapter 43 My Sister Whom I Have Never Met

"Auntie, don't let your sister fool you. My sister's surname is Lin, and I remember that the boy who topped the exam this year is surnamed Chen. How can they be the same family?"

Chen Heng stood at the corner and couldn't help but tilt his head slightly. He also wanted to hear what his sister, who had never been masked before, would say.

There was a chuckle from the open door in front of me, and the cute voice sounded again.

"Don't forget that his surname is Chen and his sister's surname is Lin. Dad said: Our Lin family doesn't have many relatives. If we really want to talk about relationships, he and his aunt can be considered a family."

"Oh? Why is that?"

"It takes a long time to say this, but if you really want to say it, you have to start with a paper kite." The soft words are indescribably light and agile, and the slightly upturned tail sound makes people listen. You can imagine the look on the face of the person speaking.

Paper kite? Chen Heng raised his eyebrows. He had already thought of who this sister was. She must be the beloved daughter of Senior Zhiyuan.

If it were her, when it came to the relationship between husband, teacher, and wife, she should really be called sister. Chen Heng shook his head and laughed, and moved sideways a little further, just enough to see the scenery in both parts of the corridor.

Since I can't copy the copybook now, I might as well become a gatekeeper and protect Sister Lin from other students, so as not to bump into them.

Chen Heng leaned against the wall behind him. There were many beautiful day lilies blooming in the corner in front of him. When Chen Heng came to know this flower, he knew that they had another name, called Forget-worn Grass. Now, not long after the Dragon Boat Festival, it is their flowering period.

The sound of conversations in the house was still coming from time to time.

"Good sister, why are you so secretive?"

"The two sisters are so unreasonable. Shouldn't such a good story be placed at a table, and my sister be invited to sit on top, and be coaxed and persuaded to hear it?"

"Okay, you know how to play tricks on us."

"Auntie, I think Sister Lin is just greedy. I'm afraid she's thinking about the crabs that just arrived at our house the day before yesterday."

"I blame you. I mentioned it in school yesterday and it got people thinking about it."

"Don't talk nonsense, Sister Wei. I think this crab is thinking about me. Otherwise, how could it tell me in a dream last night that it insisted on letting me go and have a look at it."

"It's not difficult if you want to eat. Why don't you ask your brother to help us think about the title of the painting this time?"

"Auntie, this is good, this is good."

"What's so difficult about this? It's just a matter of stepping on flowers and returning home to smell the scent of horse hooves. I'll just go back and tell him. Sisters, my sister is going to eat this table."

"But how is he going to tell us? Doesn't your brother live in the academy? We can't go to the front hall, and he can't come to the back hall."

Chen Heng was also stunned when he heard this. Before he could think about this sudden hit on his head, the voice said again: "Tomorrow, after we go to class, we will come back here. I asked my brother to hide the answer in the library. , wouldn’t it be great if we find out then?”

Good guy, this is clearly arranged for me. But I have never met you. How were you going to find me in the academy and tell me about it?

Before Chen Heng had time to think about it, he saw two people walking towards him from the distance. He quickly stamped his feet on the spot, pretending that someone was coming from a distance.

The girl in the room was really startled, and only one person said, "Someone is coming, hurry up, hurry up."

Then I heard footsteps and saw them coming out. Chen Heng immediately rushed towards the people in the distance to buy them some time.

But unfortunately, when he turned around and walked away, Daiyu, who was the first to come out, happened to catch a glimpse of the disappearing figure around the corner, and a trace of flying clothes.

When did this person come?

How rude, hiding in the corner and eavesdropping.

When Daiyu hesitated, her steps inevitably slowed down. Instead, Wei Qijun ran to the front and waved back to her.

"Sister, go quickly."

Wei Qijun's niece, Wei Shu, also lowered her voice.

Lin Daiyu, who had come back to her senses, nodded and kept her doubts in her mind. She quickly stepped forward and the three butterflies flew into the flowers and disappeared without a trace.

Chen Heng didn't know whether they had left or not, so he had to stand in the corridor and chat with the two classmates for a while. Guessing that the time would be about the same, he said goodbye and left.

When he returned to the dormitory, Qian Dayou couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw that he came back early today, "Why did he come back so soon? Could it be that Du Yunjing is also in the hotel?"

Chen Heng shook his head and waved for him to continue playing chess with Xue Biao. He walked to his position, took a piece of white paper and began to think. After all, I have been called brother so many times in vain. Now that I know this situation, I can't just sit back and watch.

Stepping on the flowers brings back the scent of horseshoes? How to solve this problem.

Chen Heng always felt that the purpose of this title was similar to that of ancient poems hidden in the mountains, so he discussed it with Xue Biao. Xue Biao knew it and told him the allusion while playing chess.

The root of this question still fell on Song Huizong, who used it to test painters. The one who won the title used "butterflies flying around hoofs" to solve the problem.

It turns out that the idea I just thought of has already been used by others. Chen Heng shook his head and continued to think of new ways to solve the problem.

Soon, he lifted his pen and hung it on the paper. He first drew a courtyard covered with flowers, butterflies resting on an empty stable, and only a bunch of hanging horsetails could be faintly seen at the arch of the courtyard.

The previous painter concealed the flowers and used butterflies to complete the theme, but he concealed the horseshoes and used flowers to complete the theme.

Chen Heng himself was quite satisfied, and everyone around him was doing his best to be a brother for Sister Lin. He smiled and turned over the drawing paper, picked up the pen and wrote a few lines on the paper.

After doing all this, Chen Heng couldn't help but get playful and folded the drawing paper into the shape of a paper crane. Xue Ke and Qian Dayou were amazed when they saw it and praised him for his dexterity.

"Are you going to give it to someone?"

Xue Ke asked curiously, because the paper was already folded together, so he couldn't see what was drawn on it.

"Yes, there is a younger sister of an elder family who needs my help with a little thing." Chen Heng explained, but he didn't plan to elaborate on the reason.

His words surprised Jiang Yuanbai, and he said to Chen Heng: "Good brother, why didn't you tell me earlier that you have a younger sister. From now on, I will call you my brother-in-law, just like I call Brother Xue."

"Beat you to death, you chatterbox." Xue Ke couldn't help but scold him with a smile.

"Wait, don't panic." Jiang Yuanbai coughed and said mysteriously, "In fact, I also have two sisters. They are the right age for you two."

Chen Heng had no choice but to put down his pen and stood up, saying: "It's really hard to listen to it. Let's do it together, Brother Xue."

The next day, after leaving the hall.

Daiyu brought Wei Qijun and Wei Shu to the Tiren Hall as scheduled.

The weather was a bit sultry today, and Jia specially picked a green silk gauze sleeve dress for Daiyu. A pair of white and tender arms were faintly visible under the gauze.

As soon as Wei Qijun entered the room, she pulled Wei Shu to search in the hall. Although the two are aunt and niece in terms of seniority, Wei Shu, as a niece, is two years older than Wei Qijun.

Lin Daiyu followed the two calmly. She didn't ask her "brother" at all last night. She just held the pen with her left hand and wrote a copy of the answer herself and hid it in her sleeve. She was just going to wait for the two to get tired of searching, then she would take it out and say that she had found it.

Anyway, she was going to have this crab feast.

After waiting for a while, Daiyu, who was pretending to search, saw that the time was almost up, so she took out the answer she had hidden and said, "Look, I found it, didn't I?"

"Aunt, Sister Lin, I found it." Wei Shu also raised her hand at the same time, and her two fingers happened to hold a small paper crane.

"Huh." Wei Qijun looked at her niece, then at Sister Lin, and couldn't help wondering, "How could there be two brothers?"

Sister Lin was also speechless. Even if she was smart, she couldn't guess the situation at this moment. She had to say, "Sister Jiao, don't take the wrong person's things."

Jiaojiao is Wei Shu's nickname.

Wei Shu shook her head and spread out the paper crane as she walked, "Look, isn't this painting about the smell of horse hooves stepping on flowers and returning home?"

The drawing paper was passed to Wei Qijun, who secretly glanced at it, then covered it and said to Lin Daiyu, "Sister Lin, quickly open your copy and have a look."

Daiyu felt guilty for some reason, and didn't know which one to say was wrong at this time. She had no choice but to reach out and open the answer she had drawn.

Wei Qijun took a look and exclaimed on the spot, "Ah." She raised her hand and called to her niece, "Jiaojiao, come and see." Then she stretched out the drawing paper in her hand to Daiyu's side.

The two pieces of drawing paper were placed together, and they both depicted the same idea of ​​solving the problem, with only subtle changes.

"How could it be so coincidental?" Wei Shu also felt strange, and her bright eyes fell on Daiyu like a knife. Daiyu didn't understand. Even though she felt very strange, she could only laugh dryly and said, "I think my brother was confused for a while and drew an extra one. Maybe he was worried that we couldn't find it." After hearing her explanation, Wei Qijun nodded and thought it made sense. Seeing that someone was willing to believe it, Daiyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the blush on her face faded a little. "Aunt, look. There are words on the back of this paper." Wei Shu's eyes lit up, and she pointed at the one in Wei Qijun's hand excitedly. Wei Qijun turned over the paper as she was told, and read the words on it while reading, "Sister: Crabs are cold in nature, don't eat too much. Brother, keep it." The aunt and niece looked at each other, and both set their eyes on Daiyu, and said in unison. "Good sister, why don't you let us see the back of the paper in your hand?" At this point, how could Daiyu not guess that the back figure yesterday was Chen Heng. I couldn't help but feel ashamed and annoyed. I thought to myself that this person was really annoying. It's fine if he just eavesdropped, but he didn't even say hello to me. He acted on his own and put me in an awkward situation.

Daiyu was anxious, and the red clouds that had faded away originally appeared on her cheeks again. Unfortunately, her skin was originally fair, which made the two red clouds stand out against the sky.

This scene made Wei Shu look over and couldn't help but say, "Good sister, it seems that you can't eat this crab."

Finally, I wrote it. I wrote four versions in total. But considering the interaction in the later stage, I decided to use this one.

I will update the second chapter first, and I will review it myself in the evening to see if I can write a better one.
