Chapter 311

After renting a house, Tangtang and Guoguo settled in the capital for the time being. Every day, they would go to the streets and walk around whenever they were free. They could enjoy the scenery or have a few words with the refined scholars they met.

Shen QingLing would come over and stay for a while after the court every day. Sometimes he would sit for a while and go off to work, sometimes he would stay for dinner and then go back.

Even though Tangtang and Guoguo’s cooking skills were not as good as their dad, they were still not too bad. Their dishes were quite fresh, and Shen QingLing was very satisfied with it.

After all, there were some things he had no chance to eat in this day and age. This was the bad side of not being able to cook. So most of the time, Shen QingLing was willing to stay and eat, but sometimes he had to leave due to his official duties.

Tangtang and Guoguo did not show any dissatisfaction about Shen QingLing’s having meals for free. After all, he had helped them before. It was just a few meals, and they were going to eat themselves anyway, so they let him in by the way.

However, what made Guoguo both happy and unhappy was that when Shen QingLing arrived, he was always talking to his brother, and his brother was also willing to talk to Shen QingLing. On the face of it, their relationship looked very good.

What made Guoguo unhappy was that every time Shen QingLing came, he would become useless. Even his own brother had put him aside, not to mention Shen QingLing would remember him. This feeling of being ignored made Guoguo feel very bad.

……

They thought life would go on so peacefully until the Spring Test came, and Tangtang would do well in the exam, then he would be in love with Shen QingLing, and then they went home together.

But life was not always so peaceful. At the beginning of March, Shen QingLing had left and someone had arrived. The person who had come was not someone else but someone who claimed to be Shen QingLing’s younger brother, a childe.

The first thing he said after seeing them was, “I heard that my brother was looking for a partner for me recently. Is that the two of you? I don’t know which one it is, stand up and show me,” After he said that, he stared at Tangtang and Guoguo directly.

This childe didn’t look old, and he was probably only fourteen or fifteen years old. He had a domineering manner, followed by many servants, and seemed to have been pampered by the family.

Guoguo looked at Tangtang, “Brother, did brother Qingling ever say he had a childe brother?”

Tangtang was confused as well. He shook his head at Guoguo. “No, Brother Qingling told me about his dad and daddy. He also told me about his brother, but he never mentioned that he had such a childe brother.”

Hearing Tangtang’s words, Guoguo also understood that he was probably Shen Qingling’s distant cousin! He just didn’t know what this person’s purpose was.

Therefore, the two of them looked at the childe without saying anything.

When the childe saw that Tangtang and Guoguo ignored him, he got a little angry, “Hey! I was asking you! Have you lost your tongue? Why don’t you answer me?”

The two brothers rolled their eyes at the same time. Didn’t he hear that they were talking just now? They didn’t answer him because they didn’t want to.

Tangtang thought about it and felt that it was a little too bad for them to bully a childe. After all, this man came in the name of Shen Qingling’s brother, even though he did not like this childe very much.

Tangtang did not expect Guoguo to deal with this kind of thing. After all, he had never liked it since he was young. He was a lazy talker unless he knew this person well.

Tangtang cupped his hands together at the childe, “Young master, we are friends with Brother Qingling, but we’ve never heard him say that he wanted to find a partner for his brother. You must have misunderstood him.”

After Tangtang answered him, he looked a little better, but he still looked disdainful. He waved at Tangtang and said, “All right, I knew it. When I go back, I will definitely punish those servants who were gossiping, I knew my brother wouldn’t do that to me. He knows how I feel about him.”

When he said this, the childe also realized that he had said the wrong thing, then he turned away in a disguised way. “Since that’s the case, there’s nothing else for you. As for this house, you can’t live here any more. This is his favorite place. I’ll find someone to find a new house for you. You can move away tomorrow!”

Then he waved his hand and told the servants behind him, “Let’s go!”

After the person left, Guoguo immediately closed the door. He turned his head and found that his brother was very angry. He thought that he was jealous, but he never imagined that Tangtang would say, “I really didn’t expect Brother Qingling to have such a younger brother. Looks like the life of marrying Brother Qingling would not be easy!”

Guoguo held back the words that he wanted to comfort Tangtang. The road ahead would be long. It seemed like Shen QingLing still had a long way to go!

As for this insensible childe, Guoguo didn’t like him no matter what his identift was. If Shen QingLing really became his brother-in-law in the future, he would definitely have to deal with this childe properly. He did not want his brother to suffer any grievances.

Tangtang didn’t say anything else but just muttered that sentence.

Then came the question of whether to live in the place at all. Though they had paid for it, they should have been wise to behave since the host refused to let them live here.

However, the other problem was that this host was not the person who rented the house for them. Even though the person who came was Shen QingLing’s younger brother, they did not know if it was true. If it was not true, then they must have been cheated.

Tangtang felt a little embarrassed. He really wanted to make friends with Shen QingLing. After all, it was hard to find a bosom friend.

In the end, Guoguo made his decision and said to Tangtang, “Brother, let’s not do anything yet. When Brother Qingling comes over tomorrow, we’ll ask him about it. If he really wants us to move, we’ll go to the inn. If that’s not the case, we won’t misunderstand Brother Qingling.”

Tangtang nodded after hearing Guoguo’s words, “All right! I don’t know how such a thing could have happened.”

He said the latter sentence in a whisper, but Guoguo still heard it clearly.

He smiled and said. “Brother, do you really not know or pretend to not know? Brother Qing Ling was a celebrity in the capital city. Recently he had come here whenever he got off the court, so he naturally attracted many people’s attention. It had been quite a few days now, so it was normal for people on the street to gossip about it. I just don’t know how it would become choosing a partner for his younger brother. Obviously, what most people said was that brother qingling hid a beautiful childe in this house.”

After saying that, he glanced at Tangtang significantly. Tangtang immediately understood that the beautiful childe that Guoguo mentioned was him.

Although he was not rough, he definitely would not be recognized as a childe. It seemed like these people were really bored.

And there were clearly two people living here. He didn’t know what these people were thinking.

Tangtang was still a little angry at first, but when he saw Guoguo’s face, which looked exactly like him, he suddenly lost his temper. That was right. If you didn’t know them well, they looked exactly the same, and if they didn’t go out together, you really thought they were the same person.

Tangtang didn’t want to think about it anymore. It was nonsense. If he were to fuss about it, he would be angry.

But though he did not care, Guoguo had other thoughts. He was thinking about the childe who claimed to be Shen Qingling’s younger brother. This person was not similar to Shen QingLing, so he should not be Shen QingLing’s younger brother. In addition, this person said that words accidentally, it was obvious that he liked Shen Qingling, but he was also calling Shen Qingling big brother, which was very strange. If he was not his whole brother, why did he call him that?

Guoguo thought about it and felt a little strange. It seemed that this childe has been sent by someone else. As for who was the person behind him, no one would knew.

They were Shadowed before they had been in the capital for longo. This feeling was really not very good. Guoguo was worried that it would affect Tangtang’s exam results.

Although Tangtang would not overthink about it, he was not a no-brainer. Seeing Guoguo’s ugly expression, he understood what Guoguo was worried about when he thought about what had just happened.

Tangtang went over and patted Guoguo on his shoulder. “Come on, I’m not even worried myself. Why are you worrying so much? I just want to be the top one in the literature examination. It doesn’t matter to me whether I could be an official or not.” He didn’t believe that his talent would be buried because of this matter. If that was the case, he wouldn’t take the title. If His Highness didn’t know people clearly then why would he assist such an emperor?

Although Tangtang didn’t tell Guoguo his idea, he had already made a decision himself.

Guoguo didn’t say anything and just looked at Tangtang. After a long while, he said, “Brother, if there really is an impact, you will definitely be in pain.”

Tangtang smiled indifferently, “Doesn’t dad often say that nine out of ten things are not satisfactory in our life? We have had a good time these past ten yearsand here should always be some frustration. There is always a way out, so why do you insist on this? ”

Guoguo found that his brother had really changed a lot in the two years he was absent, especially his thoughts.

But what he didn’t know was that Tangtang had been through a lot before he had become like this.

People always change, just like him. He wanted his brother to be happy too after he was married. It didn’t matter if it was a boy like them.
