While speaking, Sui Jiang took out the letter from his arms and handed it over with both hands.
Seeing that there were actually two letters, Wu Chao thought about it and immediately felt that he could think about it more.
One letter must be a reply from my father, and the other...
Could it be Miss Xu’s?
The young man felt that he was thinking too much, but at the same time he couldn't suppress his inner expectations.
When I took the letter and saw clearly the familiar handwriting "Wu Shisun personally writes" on one of the envelopes, my heart suddenly fell steadily, and countless brilliant fireworks seemed to explode in my mind in an instant.
Seeing the overflowing smile between the young man's brows and eyes, Wu Ran asked with curiosity and surprise: "Second brother, who is the letter from?"
Wu Chao coughed lightly, covered up the strangeness, and replied: "Father——"
Is the second brother so happy to see the letter from his father?
Although Wu Ran felt a little strange, but after all he was still young and had simple ideas, so he immediately urged him expectantly: "Second brother, hurry up and read what father said."
He is also literate, so reading some simple letters is not a problem, but the letters his father sent to his second brother must not only be about family matters, but also other serious matters - most of which are not what a child like him should know.
Therefore, unless the father's letters are addressed to him alone, the second brother must read them.
Wu Chao sat down in a chair nearby and opened one of the letters.
Although this was not the letter he really wanted to open and read right away, he had no choice but to do so in order to send his brother away as soon as possible.
"Father asked if you have grown taller again——"
Wu Chao quickly scanned the letter and picked something related to Wu Ran to read.
"I have grown half a finger taller since my father left Beijing!" Wu Ran straightened his body and replied.
"Father said, I want you to do your homework well."
Wu Ran nodded obediently and waited for his second brother to continue reading.
However, he saw his second brother looking towards him and said, "In that case, let's go back and do our homework now."
"...?"
The classwork came so suddenly that Wu Ran was stunned and subconsciously looked at the letter paper in his second brother's hand that was obviously densely written.
Did his father say these two things that were related to him?
Besides——
"Second brother, we haven't played chess yet."
Wu Chao looked at him: "You don't even take your father's words to heart?"
Suddenly such a big hat was pulled down, Wu Ran was almost dumbfounded: "But..."
But his father didn't tell him to do his homework immediately after reading the letter. He thought that this was not an urgent matter, right?
But when he faced the calm eyes of his second brother, the boy did not dare to say anything in rebuttal. He could only say: "But I have finished my homework for today..."
Wu Chao frowned slightly and said seriously: "How much have you learned now? Have you started to set daily limits for yourself? Among the descendants of the Wu family, there is no such thing as how much homework you should do today. It depends on how much you want to learn -"
Wu Ran looked bitter.
It depends on how much he wants to learn?
Needless to say?
——Of course he doesn’t want to learn at all.
But such an answer to beg for punishment is definitely not allowed.
But after all, the Wu family can produce a few descendants like the second brother who have worked hard since childhood and excelled in everything.
But who gave the second brother the confidence to say this?
As a role model in the family, whatever the second brother says makes sense.
"Second brother, whose is the other letter?" Wu Ran didn't want to leave anyway, so he hesitated to ask about other things.
"I have...a good friend in the capital."
Ah Yuan, the boy beside him, was a little confused.
Is it his illusion? Just now he felt that his young master's tone seemed to be much gentler unconsciously when he mentioned the word "friend"?
"Has the second brother made friends in Beijing?" Wu Ran asked curiously.
And they are still good friends. The second brother is so picky. I don’t know what kind of person can be the second brother’s best friend?
Wu Chao, who was anxious to read the letter, frowned again.
Why does this brat talk so much? Do you have to force him to take people out?
"Stop dawdling and go back quickly."
Wu Ran said "Oh" in a weak voice.
"I really want to play chess, come and see me tomorrow -" Seeing the boy's disappointed back, Wu Chao added with a rare conscience.
Wu Ran then lost his look and was anxious to finalize the matter: "How about I come see my second brother early tomorrow morning?"
"Um."
Seeing that his obstructive brother finally left, Wu Chao immediately got up and went to the inner room.
As soon as the person sat down in the chair next to the table, the letter paper had already been opened.
Seeing that there were two pieces of letter paper, both full of words, the young man's deserted eyebrows suddenly brightened up, as if he had drank a bowl of hot soup on a snowy day in the middle of winter, feeling warm from the inside out.
"By the way, second brother——"
A sudden voice made Wu Chao quickly turn the letter upside down on the table and press it under his hand.
Wu Ran, who had gone and returned, felt confused when he saw this scene.
He doesn't have clairvoyance, so why did the second brother react so strongly?
And the second brother's appearance suddenly reminded him of the time when his teacher caught him stealing food in school... So, was the second brother peeking at some important letter? - This good friend is serious.
Friends?
"Why haven't you left yet?" Wu Chao resisted the urge to lift the table.
Can this brother get better?
In comparison, Miss Xu’s brother is much more worry-free——
Wu Ran sensed the danger, instinctively shrank his neck, and whispered: "...I just forgot to tell my second brother that when I came over today, my second uncle asked me and my second brother to borrow two books. He said they were only two books.
I only have them in my study."
"I know, I'll have someone deliver it to him later -"
"..." Wu Ran opened his mouth.
But he hasn’t said which two books he wants?
Is it really okay for the second brother to be so perfunctory?
Wu Ran wanted to say something, but in the face of his second brother's chasing eyes, he didn't dare to stay any longer and nodded: "That's fine."
Although he didn't know what kind of "yehao" it was.
Listening to the confusing conversation between the two brothers, A Yuan felt particularly confused.
"Watch from outside and don't let anyone in." Wu Chao ordered.
Ah Yuan nodded, and the feeling of confusion became more serious for a while.
Just reading a letter, do you need to keep a lookout?
Moreover, he stayed by the curtain for nearly half an hour.
A Yuan even felt that she had good reason to suspect that her young master had fallen asleep——
Driven by strong curiosity, he secretly turned his head and looked inside.
The young man was still sitting there, apparently having finished reading the letter. At this time, he was holding a ginkgo leaf in his hand and looking at it carefully. He even smiled so much that he showed a row of beautiful and neat white teeth...
Madoka was so shocked that her expression was distorted.
Is this... still his young master?
It’s just a leaf, but the young master’s appearance and state...how can I describe it...
——There is even a way that the young master will tie the leaf with a rope around his neck at the next moment... It won't make people feel too surprised?
After imagining that weird scene, A Yuan felt suffocated.
