Chapter 27 Brothers or Brothers and Sisters
(Thanks to the great reward from Taoist Zixing for his book friends! The earthquake in Ya'an, Sichuan is coming. I really hope Ya'an is fine!)
To Chen Yi's surprise, the person who came in with the sound was not a charming woman, but a young "man" who was more handsome than Helansheng, or a man in men's clothing. The outfit similar to Helansheng, white clothes and white shirts, looked quite similar. His long neck, white skin, and picturesque eyebrows and eyes made Chen Yi feel a little "dazzling"! Compared with this person, this person was a little short and much younger. Helan grew up quite tall, a little taller than Chen Yi, who was about 1.7 meters tall. The man who just came in should be about 1.7 meters tall, but his figure was a little weak and slim, as if he was like a woman, his face looked a little immature, but it made people feel lively.
This person's face looks a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere and his voice was familiar, which is the main reason why Chen Yi was stunned. This person looks a bit like Helansheng, but when Chen Yi saw Helansheng and listened to him, he didn't feel this way, and he didn't understand!
He Lansheng stood up in surprise when he saw Chen Yi. He Lansheng, who stood up, hurriedly smiled and introduced: "Young Master Chen, this is his younger brother Helan... Min, Helan Minlan..." When He Lansheng introduced Chen Yi, he winked at the man who had just come in and said: "Min... Er, this is a friend that my brother just met. Chen Yi and Chen Ziying, a native of Yuezhou, Jiangnan, was in Zuixianlou that day, shocked the four of them with the song "Youth Travel"!"
The man called Helanmin was stunned for a moment, looked at Helansheng in confusion, as if he understood, walked over in small steps, stood in front of Chen Yi, glanced at him for a few glances, smiled slightly, bowed and said, "I have seen Mr. Chen, and I saw Mr. Chen's poems in the Zuixian Tower that day. After reading it carefully, I admire him very much. I didn't expect to see him here again today, which is a great honor!"
Helanmin's voice was quite crisp and pleasant, a little magnetic, and seemed to have heard it somewhere, but Chen Yi couldn't remember it at once, but it was not like a man's voice, very much like a woman's voice. In an instant, Chen Yi was a little confused. Couldn't Helanmin be a woman? He just had no way to express his doubts, so it was hard to ask in person. He heard Helanmin say this, and he hurriedly said: "Young Master He is over! That day was just a short work I thought of by chance, and it was released with my feelings. I didn't expect that... I would make that noise. I am really ashamed!"
"Mr. He Lanmin was stunned for a moment, looked at Chen Yi with a little confusion, and then looked at He Lansheng, but he immediately reacted, smiled brilliantly, and winked at He Lansheng who had been looking at him, and returned the greeting to Chen Yi, who was treating him, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen is too modest, your poem is refreshing. My brother once discussed this poem with me after he went back. We all think it is a rare masterpiece with great charm and will definitely cause a sensation in the market. Brother, don't you?"
Chen Yi, who was a little dazed, responded, raised his head and walked over, stood beside Helansheng, and said with a smile: "Brother, you invited Mr. Chen to have a banquet today, why didn't you tell me? Mom thought where you went to play again, so I'll send me a look..."
Seeing Helanmin's "proud" action, a little light flashed in Chen Yi's head like a flash of lightning. He finally remembered that this was the young man in white who stood up at Zuixianlou and presided over justice for him that day. This person in Zuixianlou also had such proud actions, exactly the same. Unfortunately, he was far away that day and didn't see Helanmin's face clearly, only a rough impression!
It was this action just now that made Chen Yi suddenly wake up and confirmed that his judgment would not be wrong!
Helansheng looked at Helanmin with pity, "Min'er, brother takes you and mother out to play, why would he leave you and run around?"
Helanmin took Helanmin's arm and looked at Chen Yi next to him and said, "Brother, why do I think Mr. Chen is a little familiar? It seems that he has seen it somewhere. Do you think he is quite familiar? Did we know him before?"
Chen Yi was quite surprised. When he saw Helanmin, he felt that he had seen this person somewhere and had a familiar face. Unexpectedly, Helanmin also said this. Could it be that they had seen it before? Otherwise, they would not have felt this way.
Helansheng patted Helanmin's arm and shook his head: "Brother doesn't feel this way, but he and Mr. Chen hit it off at first sight, haha..."
When Chen Yi was shocked again when he saw Helanmin holding Helansheng's arm and his intimate performance when he patted Helanmin's hand, he was shocked again. The brother and brother should not be so close. Could it be that Helanmin is not Helansheng's younger brother? Someone disguised as a man?
Chen Yi looked at Helan Min again. It was already after Qingming Festival. The weather was a little hot. The clothes on men and women were a little thin. If it were a woman, the mountains on her chest would definitely not be hidden, unless they were not developed or they were very poorly developed. Although Helan Min was slender and thin, a bit like a woman, she did not have any special protrusions on her chest. Because of her wide dress, she did not feel bulging and curling back. With such a tall figure, it was a bit unreasonable to say that he had not developed, but in terms of appearance, behavior, and words, she did not look like a man. And the two of them were still called brothers, and Chen Yi was confused!
Are these two brothers or siblings in front of you?
He Lansheng saw it and guessed Chen Yi's doubts, but he had no explanation. Instead, he broke away from Helanmin's hand and signaled to Chen Yi: "Young Master Chen, just gave up... I disturbed our interest in drinking, let's continue drinking..." As he said that, he poured the wine for Chen Yi, and then filled the glass in front of him, hesitated with the wine pot, and looked at Helanmin with an inquiring look.
"Brother, I want to drink with you. I'll drink less! Mom won't scold us!" Helanmin acted coquettishly and smiled sweetly at Chen Yi, "Young Master Chen, there are poems when you have wine. Brother and I want to appreciate you writing poems again later!"
Helanmin's delicate appearance made Chen Yi feel a little dazzling. I believe that no man would be stunned or fascinated by this expression. If Helanmin was really a man, Chen Yi felt that this was a man who would make men like to let him go. He almost understood the love of Long Yang in ancient times. If there was a man as beautiful as a woman, it would be no wonder if he was like another man.
The legendary Murong Chong should be a similar character... and the Long Yang Jun back then!
Chen Yi felt that he had never been so confused today. He was confused by the brothers in front of him. He was stunned from time to time, a little rude, which made him feel a little embarrassed. After Helanmin said the words, he was stunned for a moment before responding: "Two Masters He wrote poems just by feeling, and when they thought of them, they recited them. As the saying goes, 'The article is natural, and I got it by my hand'. Only when I have inspiration can I write poems. I don't like to write poems at specific times, nor do I like limited rhythm. If I think of any poems, I will definitely recite them to the two masters. If I can't think of them, please don't blame them..."
This is an excuse he thought of when he decided to steal Tang poetry. He wanted to explain how he made a good poem inexplicably, and also used it to refusal people to ask him for poetry in order to avoid misleading and revealing his family’s fortune!
Chen Yi's words made Helansheng and Helanmin look at each other. Unexpectedly, this person has such a strange temperament. Helanmin still didn't give up, "Young Master Chen, your poem is so outstanding. If it is spread out, it will soon cause a sensation in Chang'an. I believe that in a few days, your song "Youth Travel" will spread among the crowd and your reputation will also rise. Why don't you take the opportunity to write a few more?"
This person is a bit strange, and it seems that he doesn't care about reputation at all!
"What Mr. He said is not bad, maybe this is what many people want, but... I didn't think so. I wrote poetry just to add to the elegance of the usual, express my mood, not to seek fame and fortune!" This reason made Chen Yi a little ashamed. He said it very openly, but it was not the case at all. He was just a fake literati. If he really wanted him to learn poetry and essays based on his real talent, he would not be able to write a masterpiece even if he was beaten to death. Because he was guilty, he didn't dare to speak loudly, so he had to explain it to himself with a reason that sounded very noble!
But he did not expect that this false statement made the He brothers respect him and looked a little impressed.
"I didn't expect Mr. Chen to be so arrogant and despise fame and fortune. He is so proud of it, but he is very proud of it at all!" He Lansheng said, raising his glass and toasting Chen Yi: "Mr. Chen's words make me feel very ashamed. I think I am a little older than you, but I don't have the same mood as you at all. I admire you! Come, I wish you a cup. I am so lucky to meet Mr. Chen today..."
"Mr. He is too proud, I am very ashamed! Please..." Chen Yi quickly raised his glass, touched Helansheng for a while, and then raised his glass with Helanmin, who looked strange, and he drank it all in one go!
Helanmin also drank all the grapes in the cup and raised the wine glass to Chen Yiju generously, with an indescribable look in her eyes!
Helanmin's beautiful appearance made Chen Yi distract himself again. This person was really attractive. He did not pretend to be cute at all, and his behavior was completely casual. It was this casual act without any hesitation and pretended to be so comfortable to look at!
However, Chen Yi immediately had another thought, and for a moment, he was very firm: Helanmin may really be a woman, today he was just dressed as a man, and his characteristics were deliberately covered up. Thinking of his previous inference, Helansheng's identity, Chen Yi was a little excited. The person in front of him who was dressed in men's clothes and did not know the specific gender could really be a famous beauty in history!
Helanmin seemed very satisfied that Chen Yi was distracted in front of him several times, and his expression was a little proud. Helansheng on the side stared at Chen Yi, with a little displeasure on his face, but it disappeared immediately!
