Mingwei woke up early in the morning and saw Ji Xiaowu standing in the yard looking up at the jujube tree, wondering: "Why is my cousin at home today?"
"Master gave me leave!" Ji Xiaowu asked her, "Where are the dates grown this year? Have they all been eaten?"
"It's the end of September, of course we've finished eating," Mingwei said.
"Ah! Why don't you wait for me? They only bear fruit once a year, and I still can't eat it!"
Mingwei said: "There are also late-ripening ones on the street. If you want to eat them, ask someone to buy them."
"How is that the same? This is my own!"
Mingwei didn't understand what was different, so she didn't bother to argue with him and went into the house first.
After a while, Ji Xiaowu also came in.
A baby was born in the family, and everyone was overjoyed.
Furthermore, Mr. Ji was also kind to him, which made Ji Xiaowu feel flattered.
In all his life, his father has never been so kind to him!
After dinner, Ji Xiaowu went to see his nephew.
It is almost one month old, and the child has grown a little, is white and tender, and is very cute.
When Ji Xiaowu teased him, he grinned and said happily: "Brother, you see how much Xiaobao likes me, he keeps laughing."
Ji Ling threw cold water: "I'm afraid I'm just watching a monkey show!"
Ji Xiaowu was unhappy: "If I were a monkey, you would be a monkey too, and Xiaobao would be a little monkey! Right, little monkey?"
Xiaobao is still grinning. In fact, he can't smile yet, he just grins.
Ji Ling couldn't help but laugh: "Have you ever spoken like that?"
When Zhu'er was born, Ji Xiaowu himself was still a skinny monkey who climbed trees and dug eggs all day long, but now he realized how cute the child was. After playing for a while, he said, "Brother, you and your sister-in-law can have more babies, and we can adopt one later."
Give me."
Ji Ling said: "You should give up this idea. I have agreed with your sister-in-law that we will not have another son. There are only two sons. How can we give you more to adopt? You want to have one by yourself!"
"But I have become a monk!" Ji Xiaowu said.
"You can return to secular life after becoming a monk." He said again, "I asked you to marry your cousin but you didn't. Do you regret it now? If you did, maybe you would be the father now."
Ji Xiaowu curled his lips: "Brother, do you think I can't count it out? My cousin was still keeping filial piety before! Even if we get married, it will be this year, so there is no time!"
"Oh!" Ji Ling raised his eyebrows, playing with the taste, "Have you really thought about it?"
Ji Xiaowu immediately denied it: "What did you think about it? I just pointed out your mistake!"
After playing with his nephew for a while, Ji Xiaowu was bored and went to ask Mingwei: "Cousin, do you want to go shopping? I heard that a group of Orchids came to Changlechi and they can dance the fish and dragon dance. Have you seen it?"
Mingwei talked to him while checking the accounts: "My cousin is really in the fairy mountain, and his heart is in the world of mortals! Even I don't know what the fish and dragon dance is, but you actually know it after you practiced it in Xuandu."
Ji Xiaowu was not happy: "Our Xuandu Guan emphasizes being in the world. Without experiencing the prosperity of the world, how can we see through the world of mortals? If you don't understand, don't tell me!"
Mingwei chuckled: "Okay, okay, I don't understand." She put down her pen, turned around and asked, "Duofu, do you want to go out and play?"
Duofu hesitated: "I haven't learned the formula from last time yet!"
Mingwei said to him: "Look, Duofu is much more diligent than you, right?"
Ji Xiaowu affirmed: "I am also very diligent in the temple! Don't slander me casually. Master said that since it is a holiday, go and have fun. I just came to ask, if you don't go, I won't go. Don't bury Tai."
I!"
Seeing that he was about to leave in anger, Mingwei smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I'm the one who talked too much. It's rare for my cousin to come back, so let's go together!"
...
Mingwei was busy these days and finally had some free time.
It's good to go out and play and relax.
The cousins, together with Duofu, took a car to Changlechi.
The three of them ate and walked around. In the afternoon, they saw a painting boat parked in the middle of the lake and started playing drums.
With the sound of drums, wandering tourists crowded towards the lake.
Music full of exotic customs sounded, and Hu Ji appeared on the stage in cool dance clothes.
All of them are beautiful girls. Their dance clothes are thin and see-through, revealing large breasts and a white and tender waist. Strings of gold ornaments are hung on their arms and ankles, which jingle as they move.
They danced to the music, swaying their waists and swimming like fishes.
The onlookers cheered and threw silver coins on the boats on the lake. Some scholars wrote poems and read them out loud. Those who wrote well also received applause.
Ji Xiaowu talked to her while watching: "I heard that these Hu Ji are from Xirong. The year before last, there was chaos in the north, and Xirong took the opportunity to knock on the pass and seize one of our cities. I heard that a general of the Zong family fought because of this.
He died. Later, the Zong family army took action, recaptured the city, defeated the Xirong coalition forces in one fell swoop, and fought all the way to their palace. Now that several Xirong countries have returned to us, many old Xirong nobles have lost their homes, and those ladies have become
Dancing Girl...well, she's also very pitiful."
Mingwei sighed: "Yes!"
"Actually, it's not bad." Ji Xiaowu said, "If it were someone else who led the army, their fate would be even more miserable. General Zong was kind and restrained his soldiers, only taking wealth but not people, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to be dancers."
"
Mingwei didn't say anything.
She was used to this kind of thing in her previous life, and she couldn't change it.
After performing for more than an hour, the singing and dancing took a break.
Ji Xiaowu was very interested and said to her: "Cousin, these orchids seem to look different from us! Let's go over there and have a look!"
Mingwei wasn't interested, but Ji Xiaowu wanted to go, so he went along.
They crowded to the lake, and Ji Xiaowu asked the boat guard how much it would cost to go inside and watch the dance.
Then he handed over the names of three people and led them onto the painting boat.
Although many women from the Northern Qi Dynasty came out to watch the dance, most of them got on the boat to drink wine. Ji Xiaowu led them aboard in such a grand manner, which attracted many people to look over.
Duofu stood in front of Mingwei and complained softly: "Fifth Young Master, you are too reckless. If the young lady is recognized, she will be gossiped about."
Ji Xiaowu disagreed: "What gossip are you talking about?"
"The lady has a fiancé!"
Ji Xiaowu said: "Why don't you just come and watch the singing and dancing? If he is dissatisfied with such a trivial matter, then he won't get married!"
Duofu said angrily: "What are you talking about? Is it possible that you have canceled a marriage once and want to cancel it again? Fifth Young Master, let alone you become a monk and don't get married, you want our young lady to follow suit and become a bachelor!"
Ji Xiaowu snorted and muttered: "What's wrong with being a bachelor?"
In his opinion, there is really no need for Mingwei to get married. As a Xuanshi, he should be able to walk around the world freely. Getting married is troublesome enough, and that person is still a prince. When he thought that his cousin would stay in the palace in the future, he
Shivering.
It’s so scary. Why can’t you think about it?
Mingwei's attention was attracted by a barbarian musician.
Strange, these Orchid Orchids are clearly from Xirong. Why does this musician look a bit like a Northern Hu? (To be continued)
