ungrateful

The author has something to say: An An: Candied haws are delicious (???)?

Ji An held the paper, pursed his lips, and thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure out how to write the pen, so he copied it crookedly, and the writing didn't look good at all.

Since he was a child, he was used to looking at facial expressions, and he wasn't actually stupid. Yan Huai sincerely didn't write well for him, so he could tell, so he knew that Mr. Yan's "you can ask me" was a polite phrase.

Ji An read the word again, then dried it carefully, rolled it up little by little, and put it away.

In the next few days, when Yan Huai wanted to talk to him, Ji An just listened politely, lowered his head, kept silent, asked a question and answered two words, submissive and cautious.

——This is the duty of being a servant.

Yan Huai pretended to be ignorant, knowing that he was scaring people, but he refused to write the word "Xin Chi" for him, and brought some small things to tease Ji An every day. It's a good thing that Ji An doesn't see on weekdays.

But Ji An refused to accept it.

Xin Chi turned around and saw Yan Huai holding some gadget in his hand, he didn't know what he was talking to Ji An.

He frowned, leaned over and said: "Brother Yan, my book boy is stupid, if you offend me, please return to Haihan."

When he got closer, he saw that Yan Huai was holding a sachet, and Xin Chi said, "This sachet is so delicate, where did Brother Yan buy it?"

Yan Huai looked at the poor Ji An with a half-smile and half-smile, and said, "Where did he offend me?

Ji An couldn't argue, looked at Xin Chi and said anxiously: "No, young master, I didn't..."

Xin Chi took the object from Yan Huai's hand, stuffed it into Ji An's arms, and interrupted Ji An's words: "Brother Yan rewarded you, just keep it."

Only when his young master spoke, did Ji An dare to accept it.

Xin Chi took the sachet and smelled something, not the scent of powder, and wondered, "Why does it smell like medicine?"

Yan Huai didn't like to hang out with Xin Chi, and felt that the surname Xin was putting on airs, which was very annoying, but he didn't want to really ignore him, so he put away his books and said, "My homemade mosquito repellent is used to relieve itching. I saw that your book boy had been bitten on his neck and arms a lot, so I brought him one."

Xin Chi put his finger next to his nose and sniffed it again, and said with a smile: "Then I have to ask Brother Yan for one, Brother Xian, I don't know, I am most afraid of mosquitoes, and it is very difficult in summer."

Yan Huai glanced at him, there was no mosquito bag on the exposed skin, compared with Ji An's miserable appearance, I don't know where it is so difficult.

He slandered inwardly, but said "It's because I didn't think carefully, I'll send someone to your house later", so sour, his head turned around, and under the pretense of apologizing, La Xinchi went to the restaurant for dinner .

The Yan family has a good way of doing business. After having dinner with the second master Yan that day, Mr. Xin asked Xin Chi to spend more time with Yan Huai. , so naturally Xin Chi would not shirk at this moment, and suggested a new restaurant.

If you don't go home for dinner, you will naturally have to send someone back to say something.

Yan Huai's boy was waiting outside, got a message to pass on, and was called back by Yan Huai, and got a bag of broken silver from Yan Huai: "You just came here, it's fresh here, don't rush to pick me up after you pass the message , Go around and play around by yourself.”

The little servant was overjoyed and said "Thank you, young master", and was about to leave when he was called back again.

Yan Huai smiled and glanced at Ji An, who was so obedient, and said to Xin Chi: "My squire, I am a fool, I am afraid of losing it, so I can borrow your book boy and go shopping with him?"

Xin Chi naturally responded, and threw a bag of broken silver to Ji An, saying, "Go."

Yan Huai's entourage is called Huoxiang, which is Yan Huai's bad taste. He likes medical herbs, so his own servants are all given herbal names that resemble personal names.

Huoxiang was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and she loved to play, so she went out and said, "You go back with me to communicate first, and I will go back with you, otherwise my master will definitely say that I am lazy and won't let me go."

Ji An's mind was still on his young master, he was a little dull, and he looked a little stupid, he was what others said, he was dragged by Huoxiang to Yan's new house, and when he answered, he was dragged back to Xin's house by Huoxiang.

It wasn't until Ji An came to his door that he came to his senses. He collected his mind and went to answer Master Xin.

Usually such a stupid person, but now he is quite clever, why the master left a difficult question, the young master discussed it with Mr. Yan, and said that the young master won the praise of the master, so he will not delay his homework and so on.

However, his cleverness is stupid and clever. In fact, Master Xin had already agreed when he heard that Xin Chi was with Yan Huai, and Ji An didn't need to be careful to say so many good things for Xin Chi.

The little fool saw that the master was never unhappy, so he felt relieved, and went for a stroll in the street with Huoxiang.

In this era of peace and prosperity, the night scene is bustling, and it is really lively.

Seeing that everything was fresh and interesting, Huoxiang bought hairpins for the maids in the house, and then took Ji An to buy candy figurines and candied gourds to eat, and finally lingered for a long time in the area where the lanterns were sold, feeling: "On our side, only There are only lanterns on New Year’s Eve and Lantern Festival, it’s really nice of you here.”

It's getting late, Ji An missed his young master, forced a smile, and whispered, "It's almost there, I have to go back."

Huoxiang scratched his head: "Why don't you spend the reward? You should be more careful. You don't even buy a bunch of candied haws. Let me tell you, it's delicious!"

In fact, Ji An is also greedy. He has never eaten new things since he was a child. At first, he didn't dare to spend the money Xinchi gave him. After being teased by Huoxiang for a long time, he finally made up his mind to buy a bunch of them, as if he had won some great deal. Stuff, carefully bite half a hawthorn, sour and sweet, so beautiful that he squinted his eyes.

Huoxiang had already eaten the second bunch, so she asked him, "Is it delicious?"

Ji An nodded vigorously: "Yeah!"

Huoxianghou has one child, and Ji An, who is a good boy, can't finish it when he gets up, and starts to urge again: "Candy people are delicious, go buy one?"

Now Ji An refused again, counted out a few copper coins, and went to buy a bunch of candied haws. After picking for a long time, he found the one with the most sugar and the roundest hawthorn. He held it up and refused to eat it, and said again : "I really have to go back."

Huoxiang was very speechless, but Ji An was cute, so he was not angry, he ate the last piece of cake in his hand, and said: "As long as you are obedient, let's go, go back and pick up your young master!"
