Ji Mian opened her eyes instantly.

Ji Mian lifted the quilt covering her head, looked at the roof and blinked. She seemed to hear someone calling her?

"Ji Mian - bang bang bang..."

Ji Shan's shouting was heard again at the door, as well as the constant knocking on the door.

Ji Mian woke up instantly, lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Without lighting a candle, she walked to the door of the room in the dark and opened it.

After opening the door, he found Ji Shan standing outside the door, and outside, it was pouring rain.

It rained heavily and the wind blew.

Ji Mian asked, "Madam, is something wrong?"

Ji Shan pursed his lips and said, "Follow me." After saying that, he turned around and left, heading to the second bedroom next door where she slept.

Ji Mian blinked: ...It's so late at night, an orphan and a widowed girl are still married, so it's really embarrassing to invite her like this.

Ji Mian increased her pace and followed closely behind Ji Shan. Ji Shan pushed open the door and took Ji Mian to the bedside of the second bedroom. He saw a large area of ​​wetness on the bed. Looking up, it turned out to be the front of the bed.

The upper part seems to be rotten and dripping water.

Ji Mian turned around and asked, "Did you get wet?"

Ji Shan shook his head: "No, I'm just afraid I won't be able to sleep in this bed tonight."

Ji Mian nodded: "You can go sleep at my place."

There are only two rooms in the entire old house that can be occupied, a master bedroom for Ji Mianshui, and a second bedroom for Ji Shan.

Ji Shan looked at Ji Mian, pursed his lips and said, "I don't like sleeping with others."

After Ji Shan lost his memory and was picked up by Ji Renjian, although they registered their marriage, because Ji Renjian didn't like women, the two had been sleeping in separate rooms.

Ji Mian pointed at herself: "Can I be someone else?"

Ji Shan frowned: "Aren't you?"

Having said that, no matter what Ji Shan thinks, Ji Mian can't leave her bed anyway.

She turned around and ran away: "I don't care, I want to sleep. If you want to sleep, you can come. If you don't want to sleep, you can do whatever you want. Good night!"

Ji Shan: "..."

After Ji Shan left the second bedroom and walked into the master bedroom next door, she lit a candle in the dark, and the master bedroom instantly became bright. Ji Mian was already sleeping in the back with a quilt on the bed, which made Ji Shan wonder if she was sleeping in seconds.

sleep.

Ji Shan stood by the bed and thought about it, but in the end he didn't go to bed. He just blew out the candles and fell asleep on the table.

The second bedroom only has a bed, not even a table or chair. Ji Mian has one here, so he can make do with it and sleep on the table for one night.

-

The sun was dazzling, and Ji Shan turned over to avoid the sunlight peeking in from the window.

Suddenly, Ji Shan opened his eyes, looked at the roof, and sat up suddenly.

She was on a bed, Ji Mian's bed.

She immediately lowered her head, and her middle coat was still in good condition.

Ji Shan frowned: "How come she remembers that she fell asleep on the table in Ji Mian's room, so why is she sleeping on Ji Mian's bed now?

There was a noise on the roof, and Ji Shan got out of bed in confusion, pushed the door open, and walked into the small courtyard.

The rain outside has stopped, and the sun hangs overhead, scorching the earth, and the rain has almost evaporated.

Ji Shan found a figure on the roof of his second bedroom.

"Ji Renjian, what are you doing?"

Ji Mian didn't look back, still immersed in tinkering with the tiles.

"Ji Mian!" Ji Shan shouted.

"Hey, what's the matter?" Ji Mian reacted at this moment. She turned around and saw Ji Shan waving to her, "Good morning! I'm repairing your roof. It will be ready soon. Just wait a moment."

.”

Ji Shan didn't want to ask Ji Mian what happened last night. He thought it was Ji Mian who was kind and carried her to bed.

Looking up at Ji Mian who was working hard on the roof, Ji Shan raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

Ji Mian, who has taken over the human body, is a good person, but she doesn't like reading and is a bit afraid of hardship and tiredness...

-

"We should go to the county seat today." Ji Shan took out two bowls of noodles from the kitchen and said to Ji Mian.

Ji Mian took the bowl with a smile and smiled brightly at Ji Shan: "Thank you, thank you for your hard work."

Ji Shan sat down opposite Ji Mian, picked up his chopsticks and said, "Why don't you go after five days in a row?"

They had set off at Chenshi (7 o'clock) a few days ago, but now Ji Mian woke up at Sishi (9 o'clock).

Ji Mian said with a smile: "You can't push yourself too hard. You are already very tired after working for five days, so you need to rest for two or three days."

Only by combining work and rest can you last a long time. Don't tire yourself out.

Ji Shan: "...Then what do you want to do today?"

Ji Mian: "I want to be idle."

Ji Shan: "...I will take you to the county town to buy food."

Ji Mian waved her hand: "No, no, no, I'm too lazy to leave. I don't want to go."

Ji Shan: "..."

At noon, Ji Shan cooked a sumptuous lunch. His craftsmanship was superb. Ji Mian ate it with gusto, and almost died from exhaustion in the end.

Ji Shan cooks and Ji Mian washes dishes.

After lunch, Ji Mian lay on the bamboo chair and slept, shaking the bamboo fan, which was very comfortable. But there were always some small sounds reaching her ears.

"Squeak-ta-da-da-"

Ji Mian woke up from a comfortable sleep, squinted her eyes, and found that the small courtyard that had been dried by the scorching sun was filled with books after being cleaned by Ji Shan.

And Ji Shan was still taking out the books in several large book boxes from the study room to dry them.

Those big book boxes were brought by Ji Renjian, Mrs. Ji and the nanny when they came to Tianshang Village from their mansion in Xinyang County.

Everything that could be sold in the family was sold to pay off Ji Renjian's debts. Only these books were Mrs. Ji's refusal to sell to her death. Not only did she not sell them, she also spent a lot of money to hire help to move them when she moved.

In Rang Ji Renjian, he studied hard and gained fame, but unfortunately, these large boxes of books have not been opened in the two years since they arrived in Tianshang Village.

"Are you awake? Come and help me dry the books together." Ji Shan noticed movement on the bamboo chair and shouted to Ji Mian.

Ji Mian got off the bamboo chair, walked to Ji Shan and squatted down, opening a book casually, and a strong musty smell hit her nose.

Ji Shan: "The book boxes are a little bit moldy. When I opened them, they were full of books. If I don't dry these books, they will be spoiled. Go and move those books out quickly. I will open them and dry them to remove the smell."

Ji Mian nodded: "Okay."

Ji Mian walked into the study room and moved the remaining books. He walked several times before finishing the move.

The two of them spread out all the books together and put them in the sun to dry out the moisture. They both sweated hard before they spread out all the books.

In addition, bookshelves, book boxes and other items in the study were moved out to expose them to the sun and remove moisture.

The two of them sat on chairs, drank water, and looked at the fruits of their labor.

Ji Mian: "I'm so exhausted... Madam, after these books are dried, are they going to be sold in the county town? I don't know the price of these books or how much they can be sold for."

Ji Mian clapped her hands: "When the time comes, buy three and get one free, buy five and get two free, and we will sell them together, so we should be able to sell them——"

"Don't even think about it." Ji Shan's three words lightly shattered Ji Mian's imagination, "It's impossible for me to sell books."

Ji Mian didn't understand: "Why, I don't take the exam and you can't take the exam. These books are a burden. When the two of us make money and go to the royal city to find relatives, these books can only be kept in this old house and continue to rot.

, it’s better to sell it before it rots and earn some money for traveling expenses.”

Ji Shan: "No, I can't sell it. I'll give it to you for scientific examination——" Ji Shan was quick to talk and let the slip slip.

Ji Mian's eyes narrowed: "Oh... you still expect me to get a reputation, madam, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."

Ji Shan covered his ears: "I won't listen, so don't say anything."

Ji Mian didn't want to. She reached out and pulled Ji Shan's ear away: "Give up, I won't take part in the scientific examination!"

Ji Mian's dazzling display and straightforward declaration angered Ji Shan, who bit Ji Mian's ear.

Ji Mian's face turned ferocious for a moment: "It hurts, it hurts...let it go...let it go, it's going to break, it's going to break...please...please..."

Seeing Ji Mian begging for mercy, Ji Shan let go of Ji Mian's ears, stood up with a cold snort, moistened his mouth with water, spit it out, and strode to the master bedroom of the old house. When he closed the door, he covered his ears softly.

Ji Mian, who was rubbing it, shouted: "I'm going to rest. Look at the books on the floor. If there is no sunlight, put them on the shelf. When I wake up and find that these books are damp again, you will be finished!"

"Bang -" The door was closed and locked.

Ji Mian: "..."
