Nian Wangfei's
23

Lan Jian Jun had already returned to rest. Although he wanted to keep talking to his daughter, but seeing the distant view of his daughter, he could not force words, so, could only return.

"Nian'er meimei," Lan Mo Xian reached out to pat Lan You Nian's small head like when they were little, but Lan You Nian suddenly stiffened and avoided her. 

Lan Mo Xian's hand froze in the air and then awkwardly retracted.

When Lan You Nian saw Lan Mo Xian's disappointed expression, he knew his defensive move made this brother, who was like a sunbeam, annoyed. But Lan You Nian did not do it on purpose. First of all, he does not like the closeness and touch of others. Moreover, whether it was his previous life or this life, there were many dangers in his position, so he was always very sensitive. It is just a conditioned reflex of the body. Now, the only people who could touch him other than shifu and a few elder brothers were only four subordinates.

“Sister, it's just that Nian'er hasn't been with sister for a long time, so not used to it,” explains Lan You Nian. This Lan Mo Xian was really very kind to her, just like some of her elder brothers. And towards those who were kind to her, Lan You Nian would also reply to her sincerely.

"really?" Suns.hi+ne Lan Mo Xian returned, "Nian'er, have you ever blamed big brother?"

"How did the older brother say that?" Lan You Nian did not understand as he looked at Lan Mo Xian. Blame it? How could he? He never blamed anyone else.

“The boy told you before he would protect you. But at that moment, the ability of the elder brother was too small, so it followed the father to the border. I thought…." As Lan Mo Xian looked at the little sister in front of him, his heart became even more sad, “Think after waiting for the big brother to return, I can better protect you. But do not expect that you will face so many difficulties. If... if I knew things would become like this, the older brother would rather be an incompetent person than leave.

Lan You Nian considered Lan Mo Xian to be self-blame. His heart sighed a little. He had not expected this man, as bright as the sun, would think so much.

Taking the tea set prepared by Lan Qu, Lan You Nian casually brewed a cup of fragrant flower tea for Lan Mo Xian. Lan Mo Xian smelled the scent of flower tea that he had never drank before, then thought that his own little sister who had personally soaked it for him, happily took the teacup and tasted it. As soon as he tasted it, Lan Mo Xian widened his eyes, as it was too good.

“Sister, you did nothing wrong, you must not be guilty. The past is past, Nian'er is good now. That's enough, right?” said Lan You Nian's voice without a ripple of emotion.

"(sigh), it's fine if you don't want to talk about the past, but from now on, big brother will definitely protect you," Lan Mo Xian promised.

On the side, as Lan Wu and Lan Qu cleared the pavilion, they watched with laughter how Lan Mo Xian tasted the young lady's flower tea favorably. This picture is very similar to their previous one. That day, when the four people drank the flower tea made by the young lady, it was also so delicious, that they felt like they had never had tea before.

Lan You Nian looked at the image Lan Mo Xian had made, and inwardly recalled how shifu and some senior brothers were like this when drinking the tea he brewed and the dishes he made. shifu even acted shamelessly and spoiled, using every means possible, to make him cook for her. 

Sometimes, when he was outside the valley, he still came looking for him; he was, in fact, an old little boy. Lan You Nian, thinking of shifu who made people laugh and jump, his eyes were filled with laughter.

After Lan Mo Xian finished drinking a cup of flower tea, he looked up and saw that his sister's eyes were filled with laughter and warmth. 

The warmth was too warm, her smile was too beautiful. It makes people have the desire to do everything just to make them smile.

"(coughing), was the older brother drinking too rough which made Nian'er meimei laugh just from watching?" Lan Mo Xian thought of her gluttonous appearance of drinking, moreover, it also looked to her little sister, this made her somewhat embarrassed.

“If big brother likes to drink, you can come to Nian'er's. There are many types of tea in Nian'er's. Nian'er can brew tea for big brother, ”Lan You Nian also has a good impression about this big brother, so always be more patient.

“Dad also likes to drink tea...,” Lan Mo Xian hesitantly opened his mouth. Father and sister were so estranged that she felt somewhat helpless. 

After all, they were a blood related family, he hoped that the little sister could forgive father. This way, in the future, the younger sister would have one more person to rely on in the Lan manor.

“It's late. Even though you and I are brothers and sisters, men and women are different after all. Big brother better come back early to rest!” Lan You Nian interrupted Lan Mo Xian's probing words. Against this father, he did not have any dissatisfaction. Instead, he had a hint of admiration, but upon the death of his predecessor, he was empathetic.

"Uh, alright, then Nian'er meimei rest early," Lan Mo Xian reminded before leaving. He grew up in a military camp, so he really didn't think about the difference between men and women.

After Lan Qu sent Lan Mo Xian out of the courtyard, to his own young miss sitting there with an unclear mind, he said, "Young lady, young lady, This lan gongzi seems to be very kind to young miss."

"Truly good," Lan You Nian did not show approval or disapproval.

Lan Mo Xian returned to his "Mo Xian Page. As soon as he entered the building, he saw his father sitting at the table, seemingly old.

"Father," Lan Mo Xian after bowing respectfully sat down beside Lan Jian Jun, "Why haven't you rested yet?"

"(sighs), sleep uneasily ah," Lan Jian Jun drank a cup of condensed tea, "You've been at Nian'er's for a long time, what are you doing?"

“Dad, you don't know, Nian'er meimei knows how to brew tea and moreover, brewed tea can be described as the best in the world. For the first time, this son drank a fragrant tea,” Lan Mo Xian, when talking about his family's younger sister, a faint smile of sunlight hung on his face.

“It turns out, Nian'er knows tea ceremony ah!” Lan Jian Jun sighed. 

She had missed years of her daughter's growth. Now he doesn't even understand this princess.

"Dad, Nian'er meimei, all these years alone, must have lived through a lot of hardships, so his anger became a bit distant," Lan Mo Xian looked at the father who was so melancholy and hurriedly comforted him , “Daddy, everything has to be done slowly. This son believes Nian'er meimei will one day forgive father.

"It's dad's fault ah!" Lan Jian looked towards You Nian Pavilion. Even without anything, now he discovered that his distance had grown so far.

“Father, about the disappearance of Nian'er meimei five years ago, I fear there is a peculiarity, and the appearance of Nian'er meimei..” Lan Mo Xian said anxiously, "In the future if you want to find a good marriage ..."

“This father has already sent people to check it out. Nian'er is very kind, people who are unfit for Nian'er," Lan Jian Jun said protectively, "In addition, your father can raise Nian'er for life, as well, so there's no reason why that couldn't happen. Done it. In this way, it is not necessary to marry someone else to suffer.”

Indeed, Nian'er meimei was the best, Lan Mo Xian agreed.
