late.
Ji Xiaoli struggled to climb high up on the tree, and leaped with his eyes closed.
There was the whistling wind in her ears, and she chanted "Master" loudly in her heart.
really! She only read a few times, then she fell lightly and was hugged by someone at the waist. Ji Xiaoli opened his eyes and shouted happily: "Master!"
Her master's face was so black that it was almost the same color as the clothes on his body, and he raised his hand and threw her out as soon as he landed.
Ji Xiaoli twisted her waist in the air, took advantage of the situation to do two hollow flips, and landed on the ground lightly and delicately - this is what her master taught her just a few days ago.
The unscathed man stood up triumphantly, and said with a small face held high, complacently, "What Master taught is indeed correct!"
Standing under the tree, Chen Yubai felt a dull ache in his lungs, partly because of his impatience, partly because of her anger, "Ji Xiaoli! Are you afraid of falling to your death?!" He said through gritted teeth.
Ji Xiaoli gave him a strange look, and his tone was very firm, like the sun rising every day: "Why did you fall to your death? Master, you will catch me!"
I know it's dangerous to be afraid of being so high, and I'm terrified!
But... there is you.
isn't it
Under the shade of the trees, the sun's light spots are colorful, and the handsome faces of thousands of boudoir girls in the capital look complicated and unspeakable in the colorful light.
Ji Xiaoli couldn't bear his suppressed look, so he took the initiative to reconcile and said: "Master, don't be angry, I am not angry anymore."
Chen Yubai looked at her, and asked her quietly: "Are you not angry anymore?"
"En!" Ji Xiaoli nodded, smiling.
"What if I hit you again next time?" Chen Yubai asked.
She looked a little embarrassed: "Then... I will definitely be angry at that time... It hurts so much..."
The cold eyes of thousands of miles of ice and snow locked her tightly, and Chen Yubai's voice was soft and cold: "And then? You won't be angry if it doesn't hurt, and you completely forget about it, right?"
The little girl didn't think there was anything wrong, so she nodded. A sneer appeared on Chen Yubai's lips: "I should have understood a long time ago. Since you came to me, you have only come to cultivate immortality. Who is the master... It doesn't matter at all."
This statement...even though Ji Xiaoli could tell that he was unhappy, there was nothing wrong with this statement!
"That's why you always forget in a flash and be happy. You don't really care who treats you well or badly." Chen Yubai smiled coldly and sarcasticly, "You don't care about anyone."
This world is just a temporary stay for her, there is no need to spend time thinking about it, he Chen Yubai is no different to her from those nuns in Yanyang Princess Courtyard, she will not remember it in the future, so there is no need to hold grudges.
Everyone in the world said that Master Guoshi was cold-blooded and ruthless, but why did the cold-blooded and ruthless person regret beating her even in his dreams these days, but the person who was beaten and cried was no longer angry
The heart that the entire Great Ye Kingdom considered iron and stone was restless day and night, but her heart... what was it made of
"You go home, I will give you ten days off." Chen Yubai was silent for a long time, and said with deep eyes, "If you still want to come after ten days... you can still come, you can send someone to tell me, and I will send someone I'll pick you up. If you can't come... let's be a master and apprentice, so let's say goodbye."
Ji Xiaoli was stunned, she didn't understand what happened to Master
How can you not care? She remembers who treats her well: her father and mother took care of her since she was a child, Ji Dongnanxi took her to play, the endless snacks in the princess's concubine's courtyard, sister Qin Sang's monthly visits, the old housekeeper and Xiaotian... And the master, although he is unhappy all day long, but the master taught her lightness kung fu and immortal skills, she will not fall to death when she jumps from such a high tree!
As for who treats her badly, for example, the nuns in the princess concubine's courtyard sometimes beat her, then she just doesn't play with them.
How does it count as "care"? Does it count if you throw thunderbolts in their faces
Ji Xiaoli tried to express his "care" to him: "Then let's do this: next time Master hits me again, I'll throw a thunderbolt at Master!"
Is that enough to care about? !
The national teacher who was still looking at her with a confused expression, turned around and left with a dark face.
"Master!" Ji Xiaoli stumbled after him.
"Cut down that tree!" Master Guoshi ordered with a cold face as he passed by the old housekeeper who hurried over. When the little girl behind him called "Master", his heart sank after all. After a pause, he raised his voice and said coldly to those who were chasing him: "Ji Xiaoli, if you dare to climb up a tree and jump down again, I will never show up, and you will fall to your death!"
After speaking, he was supposed to walk away, but he couldn't wait for the little girl's promise for a long time. He gritted his teeth and turned around, his eyes flashed like lightning, "Do you understand?! This fairy art is withdrawn! You are not allowed to climb trees in the future! Do you understand? !"
"Understood...understood!" Ji Xiaoli was so frightened that he didn't dare to go forward again, he stammered and hurriedly agreed.
Master Master disappeared in a flash. The old butler shook his head and called for others to cut down that unlucky tree together. Ji Xiaoli was disappointed and thought: I can no longer climb trees, what a pity... It is so troublesome to climb the wall and carry the ladder!
**
Xiao Li came back suddenly and said that he would stay at home for ten days, the whole family except Princess Yan Yang's yard, were all overjoyed.
Princess Zhennan was originally worried that this girl would be driven back because of an accident, but the old housekeeper sent by the National Teacher's Mansion personally sent her back, and brought a cart full of precious flowers and plants to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. The National Teacher's Mansion has always been lofty and difficult to reach, such a scene has never happened before, and the princess is overjoyed.
"It seems that Master Guoshi likes us Xiaoli very much!" Wang Hao said happily with her adopted daughter in her arms.
Xiao Xin lowered her head in a low voice and said nothing, her toes were moving back and forth under her skirt.
She still looked unhappy until the time of meal, the princess felt something was wrong, and asked her softly: "What's the matter? Does the food not suit your appetite? What do you want to eat?"
"No..." Xiao Li put down the bowl and chopsticks, and sighed.
The princess ordered someone to collect the meal, took her daughter's hand, took her to the side flower hall, and asked her carefully why she was unhappy.
"We are grown up, can't we tell our mother if we have something on our minds?"
Ji Xiaoli shook his head sullenly, "It's not that I'm unhappy, it's Master... My master is unhappy."
She taught the concubine Chen Yubai's ten-day agreement, and said sadly, "Master has taken back the celestial art. I want to see him in the future and I have to climb up the wall with a ladder."
She used weird words and spoke intermittently. How could the princess know the truth, she just thought that this girl had caused too many troubles, and finally the Master of the State Teacher couldn't take it anymore and sent her back to reflect for a few days. The princess asked softly: "You must have caused a lot of troubles and disturbed the Master of the National Teacher. Let me ask you: Your brothers visited you last time and came back and said that you destroyed many precious flowers and trees in the National Teacher's Mansion. Is there such a thing?" ?”
Ji Xiaoli nodded honestly.
"It's no wonder the master of the country specially sent those flowers and plants here. I think it's a hint of this." The princess sighed, "How many times has my mother told you, why are you still so naughty outside?"
"Some of them are not my fault. There is a green bamboo plant that plays with me, and dies after playing with it!"
The concubine sighed, and stroked her long black and smooth hair, "It's a good thing that the master of the country did not expel you from the school. You should reflect at home for a few days, and make a good apology to the master of the country after you go back."
"I won't be angry if I am not the master?" Xiao Li rolled in the arms of his adoptive mother, asking half-believingly.
The princess smiled softly: "Mother taught you: if you do something wrong, you have to apologize to others. Whether they will still be angry is their business, and you have to do your job well."
While the mother and daughter were talking, Aunt Qian came in from the outside: "Your Majesty, the lord sent someone over to say: Shangshu Chu's mansion has posted a post for our Miss Xiaoli."
**
That day when Chu Shangshu returned from the National Teacher's Mansion, he sent people to guard the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. The Chu family already knew when the carriage of the National Teacher's Mansion entered the city today—the mother of the golden grandson of the Chu family had returned!
When Chu Haoran heard the news, he turned around and ran away excitedly. Chu Shangshu grabbed his son and asked, "Where are you going? Don't dare to just run to the Zhennan Palace!"
He was afraid that his son would be rude to the lady of Zhennan Wang's mansion, Zhennan Wang and his four martial arts sons were not easy to provoke. But he obviously worried too much, Mr. Chu was anxious and excited, with a shy and dreamy face: "My mind is a little messed up, I don't know how to meet her, I'm going to look through my script!"
"You silly boy! She is the lady of Zhennan Prince's Mansion, so you can easily see her?"
"Can't you? That's great!" Chu Haoran's eyes lit up, "Do you want to climb over the wall? Ask a maid?! Is there a stream in the garden of Zhennan Prince's Mansion that leads to the outside of the mansion? Come quickly! Find it for me. Come, Maple Leaf! I want to put a poem on it! Float along the stream and give it to her!"
"That's not necessary," Chu Shangshu patted the excited Aizi, stroked his beard triumphantly, and said, "I have ordered your sister to post a message to her, asking her to come to the house tomorrow."
It is common for young ladies from famous families to invite each other to be guests. Ji Ting has a good impression of Chu Shangshu, thinking that Xiao Li has reached the age of socializing with friends, so he accepted the Shang Shufu, and told the princess to give Xiao Li Bring enough maids and mothers-in-law.
This was the first time that Ji Xiaoli was invited to be a guest at someone else's home alone. The princess was puzzled by the Shangshu Mansion who was not very friendly. To be cautious, she sent Aunt Qian to accompany Xiaoli as a guest the next day.
**
In the resplendent Shangshu Mansion, the whole mansion warmly welcomed Ji Xiaoli.
Mrs. Shangshu smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, and her eyes never left Xiaoli's stomach from the beginning to the end, as if her golden grandson was already there waiting to come out.
As soon as Aunt Qian saw Mrs. Shangshu's situation, she understood. She was both happy and sad. A little girl ran in with her mouth covered and said with a smile: "The young master is here."
Before he could say a word, he heard footsteps outside. Before the servant girl finished speaking, a young gentleman came in: wearing a purple gold crown with hair inlaid on his head, Qi eyebrows, two dragons grabbing gold and wiping his forehead. A two-color gold hundred butterfly wears red arrow sleeves with flowers, is tied with multicolored silk and knotted with long spikes, and is covered with azurite and flowered eight groups of Japanese forged spikes, and wears small green satin powder-soled court boots. The face is like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the color is like the flowers of spring dawn, the temples are like cut by knives, the eyebrows are like ink paintings, the face is like peach petals, and the eyes are like autumn waves. Although he is angry and sometimes smiles, he sees and is affectionate. On the neck is a golden necklace, and there is a five-color silk sash tied with a piece of beautiful jade. (Author's Note: This paragraph describes the original text of "Dream of Red Mansions")
This outfit is really curious, Aunt Qian was dumbfounded.
Xiao Li stared at the piece of jade on Chu Haoran's neck, ready to move.
Mrs. Shangshu was used to seeing her son in all kinds of costumes, and she was familiar with it for a long time. She was smiling and wanted to win him over to have a few words with Xiaoli to cultivate their relationship. Chu Haoran turned around in a circle and went out without saying anything go.
"Haoran, where are you going?" Mrs. Shangshu called him.
Mr. Chu turned his head and gave his mother a reproachful look, then turned and left. When I came back for a while, I looked again and saw that the crown had been changed: the short hair around the head was all formed into small braids, and the red silk ended, and it was gathered to the top of the fetal hair. There was always a big braid, which was as black as lacquer. From the top to the tip, there is a string of four big beads, and the corners are pendant with eight treasures of gold. He is wearing a silver-red half-old coat with flowers, still wearing a collar, precious jade, name lock, amulet, etc. Trouser legs, elastic ink socks with brocade trim, and big red shoes with thick soles. The face looks more like powder, the lips like fat, turning to look affectionate, and the words are often smiling. A natural coquettish, all in the eyebrows, all kinds of emotions in my life, all piled up in the corners of the eyes. (Author's Note: This paragraph describes the original text of "Dream of Red Mansions")
Young Master Chu was dissatisfied with Cai's mother not following the script and stringing up the words, this time he came by himself, walked up to Xiaoli and bowed, and said: "The foreigner took off his clothes before seeing my sister."
Being so close, Ji Xiaoli studied the piece of jade on his neck more carefully: it is a rare green jadeite with a clear green and white background and even texture.
"I've seen this younger sister before." Mr. Chu said affectionately.
Ji Xiaoli fixed his eyes on the jade, and agreed: "Yes, I saw it at my master's place a few days ago."
Fortunately, Mr. Chu is a master, so he directly skipped the entire paragraph "Although I have never met her, but I look at Mian Shan, and I think I am an old acquaintance" and start a new line. Straight to the point: "Does my sister have jade?"
"There was a piece, it was bigger than yours!" Xiao Li said.
Mr. Chu was about to perform the part of throwing jade, when he heard this, he was stunned.
Such a change... seems to be good!
Two pieces of precious jade meet and touch each other, the handsome young man embraces a living girl, and the two embrace each other romantically... Holding the jade in his hand, Mr. Chu looked at her with more lingering eyes: you, understand, me!
Xiaoli continued happily: "This is emerald green on a white background, crushed and ground into chalcedony, sprinkle some in alchemy, it can make blue thunderbolts!" She took one out from her waist and showed him.
The author has something to say: Too ruthless! They still charge interest! You are all disciples of Master Guoshi!
Well...how much interest do you guys want
