lucky to meet

The scented tea on the stone table was also gone.

Xia Yi let them go to rest and sat on the stone bench with his hands on his chin, his heart was full of happiness. If there is a career, love, I don’t know if there is a chance to blossom and bear fruit.

Half a month later, Xia Yi patrolled several factory buildings, sighing in his heart, it is good to have tickets, as long as the tickets are in place, there is nothing that cannot be done.

The factory next to it is under construction and is about to be completed. It is expected that when he leaves next year, Gucun will be able to produce and sell its own cloth.

The matter here is handed over to Xia Sanwang, and he will wait to see the result. If the result is good, he can proceed to the next step.

Xia Sanwang remembered a piece of news he heard when he was in the human race, "Master, do you still remember the monsters that wreaked havoc in West City in the first half of the year?"

Xia Yi nodded, he might have forgotten something, he almost died.

"The monsters that ran away appeared in various dynasties, and many villages and towns disappeared. The surveillance institute doesn't know what's going on, and something seems wrong."

"I see."

Xia Yi knew what was going on, two groups of people fought in the domain, and the dead were relatives and friends, and the surveillance institute was mixed together, so it's strange that they can live in peace.

"I'll leave it to you here, I'll go back first."

In Tianluo City, Xia Yi found a restaurant, sat by the window and ordered a pot of wine and some side dishes.

There was still no news from Zhou Mingyu. He had been away from home for a few months, and the Chinese New Year would be in three months. Originally, he planned to stay in the Demon Race this year to celebrate the New Year. Now that's all right, the family can be reunited during the Chinese New Year.

Three days later, Shangguan Yun came and gave him two tokens to tell him that the teleportation array had been built, and it was located in Mufu.

"To the house?"

"It's the mansion leading to the temple."

"What about the other side?"

"On the other side, Mr. Xia will know when he arrives. You must keep the token, and this side only recognizes the token and not the person."

"I get it, thank."

Xia Yi couldn't wait and took Xia Qing to the mansion.

"Master, does this look familiar?"

"Nonsense, isn't this our home?"

The other end of the teleportation array is located in a courtyard of Xia's family. This courtyard is relatively remote. When I was a child, Xia Yi would bring Xia Yuan and Xia Qing here to roast sweet potatoes to eat.

18. Another year

After Xia Yi had a meal with Xia Yin Linrou in Jiangdu City, he returned to Tianluo City. Before leaving, he confessed that he must not pass without a token, and only recognizes the token but not the person.

There are only two tokens in total, and Xia Yi can only bring one at a time if he wants to bring someone there, and he complains in his heart that he can't get an extra token.

Time flies and the Chinese New Year is approaching, and Xia Yi is so busy that he can't keep his feet on the ground.

The human race has been shrouded in the cloud of monsters this year.Due to matters in the domain of the Xianmen Demon Clan, the disciples serving in the Overwatch Academy have frictions from time to time, and sometimes they even fight at the slightest disagreement.

The production of cloth in Gucun was proceeding in an orderly manner, Ling Xialing should go to the villages to persuade the village chiefs to go to Gucun.The four of them performed their own duties. Apart from reporting progress and discussing problems encountered, it had been a long time since they chatted together.Even Zhou Mingyu didn't run much.

In the past two months or so, Xia Yi brought the scented tea to Zhou Mingyu four times, saying that it was a new tea that just came out.There were two times when he didn't see anyone, and twice when he met a man wearing a ghost mask, his heart shrank in fright. This was the shadow left on the Naihe Bridge.

After getting the teleportation array, Xia Yi went back to Ziyang City to have a meal with his family in a month, and hurried back to Tianluo City after eating. Now he puts all his work in Tianluo City Xia Yi government.

Xia Yi was sitting in front of the window, holding a brush in his hand, looking at the branches with no leaves in the courtyard, lost in thought for a moment.I don't know if Xia Yuan Muxue has left customs, and there is no news at all. It would be great if there is a phone call, at least you can call and ask.

A drop of rainwater hit Xia Yi's face, awakening Xia Yi's ecstatic eyes.It was raining, and it started to rain heavily after a while, Xia Yi closed the window and lit a candle.

It was too cold, Xia Yi went to the bed and dragged a quilt over his shoulders, sat on a chair, rubbed his frozen hands, picked up the pen again and began to write on the paper.

Xia Sanwang was going to get married on the eighth day of the first lunar month, and Xia Yi asked him to go back early.At the beginning of December, Xia Yi, a buddy who was in the Demon Race, asked the guards to escort them back to the Human Race, and they returned to the Demon Race together after the Chinese New Year.

Ding Xiayi, the maid in the mansion, was given leave to return to the human race with the brigade.Now only Sister Mei, Xia Qing and himself are left in Nuo Da's courtyard, and Ling Xia Lingying occasionally comes to visit.

Xia Yi stepped out of the door and stood on the porch. It has been raining for several days and has no intention of stopping.Sister Mei was busy in the kitchen, Xia Yi stood at the door and said to her, "Aunt Mei, let's have hot pot tonight, I'll ask Xia Qing to call Ling Xia Lingying over."

Sister Mei served Xia Yi a bowl of broth that she had just made, "Drink it while it's hot and it won't be so cold. Okay, I'm going to prepare it and let Qing'er call for someone to go."

Xia Yi first asked Xia Qing to send him to the mansion, and he had to go to the temple to ask someone to go.

Zhou Mingyu was not there, so Xia Yi borrowed a pen and paper from the guard before leaving, and handed it to the guard after writing, and asked him to hand it over to Zhou Mingyu when he came back, or hand it over to him if Shangguan Yun came back.

Xia Qing's journey was farther than Xia Yi's, and Xia Yi waited at the gate of the mansion for almost an hour before coming back to pick him up.

On the carriage, Ling Xialing should be there.Ling Xia asked, "Brother Xia, what was that place just now?"

Xia Yi remembered that he had not brought the two brothers here before, and said, "The teleportation array leading to the human race is built there, and it is also the place leading to the temple, called Xiangfu. I just went to the temple on business. "

The two brothers nodded, and Xia Yi was afraid that they would forget what they said before, so he instructed, "You must remember that if you want to go to the human race to do business, you must bring a token. It's the same when you come back. Only tokens are recognized here, not people."

The two brothers said that they had written it down and would not forget it, so Xia Yi could rest assured.

Zhou Mingyu didn't come, but Shangguan Yun came.Xia Yi asked Shangguan Yun if Zhou Mingyu had something important to do?Shangguan Yun said that he didn't know either. He went back to the temple to report the clues he found, but he couldn't find anyone.The guard gave him the letter paper left by Xia Yi, and after reading it, he came straight here.

Xia Yi did not expect that Shangguan Yun was also a foodie.If Zhou Mingyu didn't come, then he didn't come, there was always something to eat.At the dinner table, Shangguan Yun contributed a jug of good wine and asked them to drink it openly.Drinking hot pot while drinking, not to mention how pleasant, Shangguan Yun revealed his true feelings, he said that he hadn't had such a happy meal for a long time.After eating, Shangguan Yun and Xia Qing started drinking together, and Ling Xialing should have been lying on the table since he was poured down.

……

As the Chinese New Year approached, Xia Yi ran around carrying gifts to pay New Year's greetings.

There are only three days left until the new year, Xia Yi is lying on the bed, wrapping herself tightly, thinking about what gift to bring to Zhou Mingyu for New Year's greetings.

What is he missing?Nothing is missing.

Xia Yi had a headache and didn't know what to give as a gift.

Sister Mei is also in a hurry these days, it's almost the Chinese New Year, should his young master take a gift to visit his sweetheart.

At noon on the vertical day, Sister Mei held several beautifully packaged boxes and placed them in front of Xia Yi.

"What is Aunt Mei doing?"

Xia Yi opened it and saw that it was ginseng, a rare product.

"It's almost Chinese New Year, you should send some gifts to the girl's family to celebrate the New Year."

Xia Yi looked at these gifts and asked suspiciously, "But do these people like it?"

"Master, it's not about the importance of the gift, it's about the thought, you have to let others feel your heart."

Xia Yi said depressedly, "But these things are like grass and stones in his eyes, I'm afraid he will dislike them."

"But for us, this is already the best."

"I know, I can't get what he needs." Xia Yi patted his face and said, "Okay, that's it. After the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, I will send it to him."

"Does the lady know about this?"

"I haven't said it yet, I'm thinking about the horoscope."

……

On New Year's Eve, Xia Mansion had a New Year's Eve dinner, and those who set off fireworks and firecrackers made a mess of laughing and joking.Xia Yuan didn't come back, Xia Yi was disappointed in his heart, but his face didn't show it.

He told Xia Yin Linrou that he was going to visit a friend and ran away. He ran back to Tianluo City, took the gift prepared by Sister Mei and went straight to the temple.

The demons were influenced by the human race and celebrated New Year's Eve. The temple was full of festivities, and red lanterns were hung everywhere.

Zhou Mingyu was in the bedroom, sitting on the fluffy animal skin and drinking wine cup after cup.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Xia is here."

Zhou Mingyu's throat rolled up and down and said, "Let him in."

Xia Yi took off her shoes at the door, stepped on the black animal skin, went to sit down opposite Zhou Mingyu, put the present on the side and said, "I should have come here to wish you a new year, but it has been delayed until now," Xia Yi patted the box and continued, "I know you don't like this kind of meaning, but it's still a wish, so you can accept it reluctantly."

"I let you say everything, and you have to accept it if you don't accept it."

Xia Yi smiled and said, "Brother Yu, where's Xiaowei?"

"Going to play."

"Where is the Lord Shangguan?"

"gone back."

Seeing Zhou Mingyu drinking alone, Xia Yi knew that he was either alone or had a bad relationship with his family.

Xia Yi soon ran out of words because Zhou Mingyu only answered but didn't ask questions. He was afraid that a bad question would make Zhou Mingyu unhappy.

Xia Yi searched all over his head for topics and finally came up with a topic that he thought was good.

"I invite you to watch next year's Flower God Festival."

"Come have a drink with me!"

The two spoke at the same time, Xia Yi coughed lightly to cover up her embarrassment, "Okay."

This wine is not quite the same as the wine Xia Yi drank, it is sweet and easy to drink.

"Brother Yu, will you go to see the Flower God Festival in Jiangdu City next year?"

"I've seen it."

Xia Yi took a sip of the wine and said, "Oh, when?"

"For a long time."

The two of them chatted one after another,
