Chapter 453 The heart is even colder
Song Yi'an was so busy every day that he didn't touch the ground. When he knew that his second brother had failed the exam, he suddenly remembered, oh, the Guibang for the provincial examination has been released.
"Master, master wants you to go back." The errand boy sent a message.
Song Yi'an frowned subconsciously. He was so busy that he hadn't finished sorting out the statements piled up several feet high on the case. How could he have time to go back?
Besides, what is he going back to do? Let him comfort the second brother? Can the second brother appreciate it? I'm afraid it will add fuel to the fire, right?
"Second Master just came back from Fucheng, he must be very tired, let him have a good rest first, and I will go back to see him in two days."
"Master..." Hearing what he said, the boy's expression became very strange, as if he hesitated to speak. Song Yi'an became a little unhappy, "You just go back to the master like this." He was so busy that he didn't even have time to sleep, and the family still bothered him with these **** things. Isn't that just a failure? It's no big deal, just work hard and take the exam after three years. Is it possible to learn from that woman that she cried, made trouble, and hanged herself?
The little servant then hesitantly said: "Master, the second master did not, did not come back..."
"Didn't return?" Song Yi'an was surprised, "Where did he go? How did you know he failed the exam when you didn't go home?"
The boy said: "Second Master drove back the boy next to him, and left by himself in a carriage without saying where he was going."
Is this running away from home? He didn't even go home after failing the exam. I don't know if his family is worried about him? The second brother is such an old man, why does he act like a child?
Song Yi'an's shocked mouth didn't close for a long time, the second brother left without a sound, the family must be in chaos, father and mother... Forget it, he should go back.
As soon as Song Yi'an got home, he saw his father with a sullen face and frowning, his mother was crying with her handkerchief in her hands, and his wife comforted her in a low voice.
"Yi'an, your younger brother is missing." Mrs. Song seemed to be grabbing at straws when she saw her eldest son come back, "Yi'an, your second brother failed the exam. He used to be a strong kid. Mother is really scared, scared." He's doing something stupid!"
"No, the second brother is smart, so he won't be overwhelmed." Song Yi'an comforted her, "Mother, don't scare yourself. The second brother just has a hard time. He is in a bad mood and goes out to relax. After a few days, he will think about it." I came back. Besides, didn’t Lao Zhang follow? Don’t worry, it’s okay.”
Old Zhang is the coachman of the Song family, this time Song Lixian went to Fucheng for the exam, he was the one who drove the car to send him. Song Lixian drove the boy back, but the coachman was still following him, what could happen? Song Yian felt that there was nothing to worry about.
"This kid Lixian, if he fails the exam, he will fail. How can he not even know how to go home? Isn't he picking my heart?" Mrs. Song was still crying, "He is in a bad mood and restless. What if someone is trapped? What if you fall off a cliff? Yi'an, mother can't rest assured, you go and get your brother back." She grabbed the eldest son's hand and stared at him closely.
Song Yi'an's face darkened, "Mother, you are thinking wildly." Can't you think about it? The second younger brother is already in his twenties, and it's not the first time he's gone out. He's been there four times just for the study tour. Isn't everything good? With Lao Zhang following him, who can cheat him? Falling off a cliff is even more outrageous. If he doesn't walk on a flat road, what is he doing on the cliff?
"But I'm flustered, and when I close my eyes at night, I have nightmares, dreaming that something happened to your brother. Yi'an, you are the elder brother, you must find your brother back." Mrs. Song tightened her grip on the eldest son's hand .
Patriarch Song followed suit and said, "It's really worrying that he's out alone. Yi'an, you're in the county government, you have a lot of people, and you know a lot of people. Your second brother is ignorant, so it's hard work for you to get him back. Right. You are brothers, and only when brothers are united in harmony can the family flourish."
Song Yi'an looked at his father with a worried face, and then at his crying mother, feeling extremely powerless.
The second brother ran away from home, and he was also worried. However, as soon as his father and mother came up, they forced him to find someone, which made him very uncomfortable.
"Father, where is the second brother? Where can I find him?" Song Yi'an asked expressionlessly.
"Your second brother..." Patriarch Song couldn't speak.
"Father and mother don't know where the second brother has gone, how to find it? It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. The second brother is walking in Fucheng, do you think this will work? Ask the uncles and brothers in the clan to start from Fucheng and choose one for each of them." direction…"
Song Yi'an suggested tactfully, before mentioning that the Yamen could not take leave, his mother became anxious, "Yi'an!" looked at him dissatisfied, and said sharply, "You don't want to go? That's your own brother! Yi'an , you don’t want to see your brother like this? Are you wishing for something to happen to him? You let mother down so much. "
That look made Song Yian feel like falling into an ice cellar, the blood on his face quickly faded, and there seemed to be a knife in his heart, piercing his heart one by one, the pain made him almost faint.
"Sir." Luo Che whispered uneasily.
"Mother, is that how you miss your son?" After a long time, Song Yi'an had the strength to speak.
Mrs. Song's eyes dodged, "Am I wrong? You have been jealous of your younger brother since you were a child, and always robbed him of things. He got a book, and you have to have it. You don't have the talent for reading..."
Patriarch Song really didn't want to hear what she said, so he interrupted her, "Okay, what are you doing talking about Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds? The most urgent thing is to find Lixian."
Turning to the eldest son again, "Your mother also misses your second brother, so she will inevitably get agitated. Don't worry about Yi'an."
Song Yi'an only found it extremely ironic. He knew that his parents were partial to each other, but he didn't expect him to be the eldest son in his mother's heart. Is it because he snatched something from the second brother? It was obviously the second brother who robbed him of his things.
Niang said that the book was given to the second brother by the uncle. He envied and wanted it, but he knew he couldn't get it.
How did he own that book then? It was he who bought a gift for his second brother with the monthly money he had saved for half a year, and he was willing to lend him the copy. He is not talented in reading, so he is not worthy of reading?
Song Yi'an wanted to argue, but he opened his mouth and found it boring. There are no perfect parents in the world, what is wrong with parents? If there is a fault, it can only be his son's fault.
He closed his eyes and opened them again, and said calmly: "Father, I'm very busy with errands, I'm afraid I won't be able to ask for leave. We have raised so many servants, it's not difficult to find someone. My son will ask the adults for help, Inquire in Fucheng to see if anyone knows where the second brother has gone."
Patriarch Song was also a little frightened by his son's serious expression, and said awkwardly, "You are busy, you are busy, and the cousins of your second uncle's family are all idle."
The corner of Song Yi'an's mouth twitched, "Then son will go back to the county government office and tell the adults about it."
Go to Xiaoxiang Academy to see the update.
Tomorrow, we will go on a spring outing. In the morning, the Huaihai Memorial Tower will be held in honor of the martyrs, and in the afternoon, we will have pastoral activities. Hope it doesn't rain tomorrow. The update is to be determined, and try to be more.
