"Yu'er, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are getting more and more handsome. Come here, let Uncle Feng see how much you have improved in your cultivation."
Xia Junyu let go of Lingxi's hand and walked to Jun Liufeng's side. The four palms, one big and one small, faced each other and closed their eyes.
After a moment, Jun Liufeng smiled.
"Yu'er is really a genius. His progress is even greater than your mother's. It is true that the disciple is better than the master, and each generation is better than the previous one."
"Hehe, thank you Uncle Feng for the compliment. Uncle Feng, did you miss Yu'er and come to visit him specially?"
Although Xia Junyu is small, he is also a smart guy. The reason why he interrupted at this time was to help his mother and ease the embarrassment.
His eyes rolled from Di Shi Tian to Jun Liu Feng.
Jun Liufeng understood what he meant immediately, and followed his words: "Yes, Uncle Feng came here specially to visit our Yu'er, because our Yu'er is so cute."
Jun Liufeng gave people the impression that he was not serious. What he said seemed to be very true, and his attitude seemed to be joking. Over time, everyone got used to it. The main thing was that they were not used to it, and there was no other way. He was a person that could not be changed.
But Di Shi Tian doesn't think so. To be honest, although Di Shi Tian is usually taciturn and cold, he is really difficult to deal with when he gets jealous.
Xia Ling'er tugged at the corner of Di Shitian's clothes and said, "Tiantian, he just likes to joke around, don't take it seriously." After all, this is still his biological brother when he was in the human world. He couldn't just not give him any face at all.
But this Jun Yaonie is really something. The more he is in front of Emperor Shitian, the more excessive he behaves, as if he is deliberately trying to provoke him. These two brothers must have had a grudge in their previous life, otherwise why do they look like a pair of enemies
In fact, it was not Di Shitian's fault that he was sensitive, but he knew in his heart that Jun Liufeng's joke was nine out of ten sincere. If Ling'er hadn't chosen him, Jun Liufeng would definitely not have chosen to provoke her in such a soft way.
Emperor Shitian knew that although Jun Liufeng had accepted this fact, he was still unwilling in his heart.
"Alright, alright, you monster. You'd better not cause trouble for me, otherwise I will hit you with my fist." Ling'er smiled and raised her fist, signaling.
Jun Liufeng wanted to say something but was pulled away by Xia Junyu.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the others also found excuses to leave, leaving only Xia Ling'er and Di Shitian in the room.
The low pressure on Di Shitian still did not dissipate. Ling'er walked around to Di Shitian, pulled his sleeves with both hands, and said coquettishly: "Tiantian~Are you jealous? Well, he is just like that. You know what kind of temper your brother has, so don't bother with him. Okay~Tiantian~"
Emperor Shitian didn't say anything, he just reached out and hugged Ling'er tightly. His hands were very tight, as if he was afraid that Ling'er would suddenly disappear in the next moment.
"Tiantian, we have been through so much together. We are no longer just an ordinary couple. We are husband and wife. We not only have love, but more importantly, we have family and children. You have to believe in me and yourself. Believe that we will get better and better in the future."
"I don't doubt you, I just don't want you to be seen by others. You are my treasure, and to me, anyone looking at you is stealing. It's not that I don't trust you, I just care too much."
Emperor Shitian rarely talks so much, especially such cheesy love words. But Ling'er didn't find it strange, but was used to it. Because he was always different in front of her every day. It was because of this that she knew how much he loved her.
As night fell, a figure sat on the highest roof of the Ling family, gazing at the moonlight desolately.
Her robe fluttered in the wind, her hair was flying, and she looked very lonely.
Suddenly he heard the sound of children playing in the distance, and he laughed, but his laugh was very sad.
He was willing to fulfill her happiness, willing to see her happy, willing to bury his feelings forever in his heart. Despite this, every time he saw them, he couldn't help but envy and even jealousy.
Why didn't this happen to him
I picked up the wine jar in my hand and drank it. The wine flowed down the corners of my mouth, and it seemed that the corners of my eyes were also a little wet. But the night was too hazy, and I couldn't tell whether it was wine or tears...
Although the Girls' Day is not a big festival, it involves the relationship between men and women, so there are a lot of young men and women on the street on this day. People come and go, and if you are not careful, you will be separated by the crowded flow of people. Therefore, couples who go out to play on this day will follow each other closely, and couples will hold hands, fearing that if they are not careful, their partner will be lost in the crowd.
Friends and couples walked in groups of three or four, and the roadside stalls were very lively. There were vendors selling lanterns, cute masks, Tang Dynasty trinkets, purses, powder, paper umbrellas, fans, and candied haws. There were also various circuses, and laughter filled the air, which made the world seem so beautiful.
"Hehe, Miss, look at that. It looks like fun."
A maid was pulling a young lady through the crowd. Sometimes she looked at paper figurines, sometimes she tasted candied haws, and she looked very happy.
"Miss, look at this purse. The mandarin ducks embroidered on it are so vivid. They look like real ones."
"If you like it, buy it. Your daughter is rich." The woman who spoke wore a golden mask covering her eyes, but with her red lips and white teeth, it was not difficult to tell that she was a beauty. Along the way, she attracted the attention of many young talents.
Suddenly, a hand reached out towards the woman, but the next moment, it was grabbed by a man.
The man was wearing a silver mask, which looked like a pair with the one the woman was wearing. They were obviously a couple.
The man whose hand was grabbed felt a pain and his face changed.
"Young man, spare me, young man, spare me. I didn't know that the beauty had someone, so I was so abrupt and offensive. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with me. I'm leaving now, leaving now."
"Get out!" He shook off the man's hand fiercely and said coldly.
When the man saw that he had finally broken free from his restraints, he immediately nodded and bowed and ran away.
"Hahaha, miss, look how handsome our son-in-law is. He just came out for a while, and he has already performed several tricks to save the beauty. Miss, are you moved?"
Dare not move, dare not move.
There are so many good-looking young men, but she can only look at them. With such a jealous guy around, she really dare not move.
"Tiantian, you shouldn't always have such a stern face. We finally get together to play, can't you be a little more friendly?" Along the way, the air pressure was getting lower and lower. It was like a walking cold storage.
"Mother, you can't blame father for this. It's because you are so popular that even Yu'er can't help but get angry."
Xia Junyu walked out from behind Di Shitian, holding in his arms a bunch of purses and small gifts given to his mother by other young masters. They were piled up into a small mountain, and his own little head was almost invisible.
These people are really annoying, they all want to snatch his mother from him, what kind of festival is this? If he were to say that he shouldn't come out today, he would be really angry.
Xia Junyu and Di Shitian, one big and one small, stood together, both looking very angry. If you said they were not father and son, no one would believe it, they looked so much alike.
Seeing this, Zi Xi smiled and walked forward, taking all the things in Xia Junyu's arms, "Okay, young master, don't be so sullen, it's not cute. Look, there's a candied haws stall over there, I'll go buy some for you, be happy."
After saying that, Zi Xi trotted over, came back with the purchase in a short while, and stuffed the candied haws into Xia Junyu's hand.
"This candied haws is sour and sweet, very delicious. Little master, come and eat it." Children generally like this. She saw other adults coax crying children in this way, and her little master must be no exception.
Xia Junyu took the candied haws that Zi Xi handed over, his eyes flashed. Although he was also a child, he rarely touched these childish things. He was either reviewing memorials or reading a lot of books, or discussing government affairs or meditating and practicing. He didn't want to be a child, and he didn't need to be a child. He just wanted to work hard and protect his mother.
Seeing Xia Junyu staring at the candied haws in a daze, Xia Ling'er felt sad and anxious.
This child was too mature, so mature that even her mother felt ashamed of herself. In fact, it was all her fault.
Suddenly, a slightly cold hand was held, and Ling'er glanced at the side and saw Di Shitian standing beside him like a protective umbrella.
Emperor Shitian patted her arm, then said to Xia Junyu: "You can try. With your father here, you can be more casual. Even if the sky falls, your father will support you. There is no need for a little brat like you."
The last sentence sounded a bit disdainful, and it was indeed said by Emperor Shitian on purpose, with the purpose of provoking Xia Junyu.
Sure enough, a trace of anger appeared on Xia Junyu's serious face. His little cheeks puffed up. He looked at Di Shitian imposingly and took a big bite of the candied haws.
He didn't want to contradict his mother in front of him. After all, he was his father.
However, Xia Junyu's series of performances made Ling'er laugh.
She seldom saw Yu'er being moved by anyone, and perhaps even Yu'er himself had discovered that his anger had a bit of a coquettish quality.
It seems that he is not against Di Shi Tian as his father from the bottom of his heart. He also has some desire for his father, but he just doesn't know it.
Seeing Yu'er's transformation, Ling'er felt comforted. She turned around and looked at Di Shitian with a grateful look.
Di Shitian shook his head, then held Ling'er's hand tightly.
"Yu'er, are the candied haws delicious?"
"It's sour and sweet, it's OK." When Xia Junyu said it was OK, it meant he liked it. If he didn't like it, he would just say he hated it.
"Really? Then mother, have a taste too." Ling'er pulled Di Shitian to Xia Junyu's side, lowered her head and took a bite to taste it carefully. After a moment, she nodded and said, "Yes, it is indeed delicious." After that, she turned her head to Di Shitian, "Tiantian, do you want to try it too? If your son likes it, maybe you will like it too." After all, they are father and son, so their tastes should be similar.
Di Shitian was stunned for a moment, and was still trying to speak. Xia Ling'er took the candied haws from Xia Junyu's hand and put it next to Di Shitian's mouth.
"Come on, come on, try it, it tastes pretty good." Ling'er looked at Di Shitian with sparkling eyes and a look full of anticipation.
Just looking at her like this, Di Shitian felt embarrassed to refuse. So he opened his mouth and took a bite as well.
The hawthorn was wrapped in sugar, with a mixture of sourness and sweetness, a rather novel taste. Since it was his first time eating it, Emperor Shitian was not used to the taste, and his sour brows furrowed slightly.
Xia Ling'er carefully observed the changes in his expression after he ate the food. When she saw him frowning, she knew that the food must be sour, and she laughed happily.
Xia Junyu was also amused and couldn't help laughing.
A family of three, holding a string of candied haws, took turns taking a bite, laughing so hard that passers-by saw them and couldn't help but feel envious.
Zi Xi watched from the side and also had tears in her eyes.
She had never seen their master so happy before. Not only did he become more down-to-earth, but he also became more emotional. This feeling was really good.
