Immortal Venerable Cubs Manual II [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 55 True and False Gold [V]
Seeing Liang Zhaozhao looking at herself in the mirror, Si Anyue was infatuated, so she said with a bit of complacency, "How is it? Are you more like your father? If you stand beside your father, outsiders will see you as father and son. Woolen cloth."
"Yes...very similar." Liang Zhaozhao replied with an imperceptible trill, she was a little afraid to meet the "father" that Yue'er was talking about with this face.
She suppressed the urge to wipe off the ink on her eyebrows, and said nonchalantly, "Sister, wash yourself too."
After the two of them washed up and ate some pancakes soaked in broth, they went out with their bags.
There was no one in the courtyard, except for the sound of the wind, Liang Zhaozhao saw that Si Anyue looked puzzled, and explained, "They are waiting outside."
This temple has only one courtyard, regardless of the front and back yards. In order to avoid the inconvenience of the two little girls getting up early, Si Xingjian took all the men out of the temple.
He was trying to persuade Lan Lan that they would all ride horses when they entered the city this time, without a carriage to cover them, it was really inconvenient to take Lan Lan with them.
"Okay, we'll be back in three to five days."
The few people who followed Si Xingjian all the way were used to his attitude towards Lan Lan. Only Zhao Man, who had just joined them, watched Si Xingjian slowly grooming the black panther the size of a pony, and opened his eyes wide in surprise. Eye.
Is it because he has been away from the master for too long?It was already a surprise to see the master giving this beast a barbecue yesterday, but now it's even more so...coaxing gently?The master never treated his wife like this before.
The old and heavy door squeaked, and a boy who was clearly a miniature version of Si Xingjian came out with a girl who was slightly shorter than him.
Well, the master has never coaxed his daughter like this.
Zhao Man added silently in his heart.
Among the people present, only Zhao Man had seen Liang Zhaozhao a few times, and even seen her men's clothes, which was not too surprising. The rest of the people didn't react when they saw Liang Zhaozhao in men's clothes.
I saw Liang Zhaozhao for the first time yesterday. Although she was also wearing men's clothes, her hair was disheveled and her face was dirty, so she couldn't see her face clearly.Although she washed and washed later, these people knew her identity, so it was inconvenient for them to look carefully.
Therefore, several people did not recognize Liang Zhaozhao at first glance, so they took a few more glances.
Liang Zhaozhao noticed several scrutinizing gazes. Although she didn't lower her head to avoid it, she still couldn't help lowering her eyes so as not to meet any gazes that looked over.She is not afraid of being scrutinized, but thinking of her attire and the person from whom her appearance comes from, she feels like avoiding it.
Probably, it's similar to feeling close to home.
She has always claimed to be rational and free and easy, but in fact she just doesn't care.
It's her father who just met, but she doesn't care about it. Once she cares, she can't help but think: They were alike, but now that she is like this, they are even more alike. Does he think she did it on purpose?Isn't it inappropriate for her to dress up like a man?She saw that Sister Yue'er's demeanor was even more outstanding than the ladies she had seen in the Zhang family before...
Although it didn't seem to matter if she did it on purpose, she just couldn't help thinking about it.
In the final analysis, even though Liang Zhaozhao has experienced ups and downs and has more knowledge than the little ladies in ordinary boudoirs, she is still just a little girl who has not reached her age. She was not protected by anyone before, and she only supported herself. Now facing her in this world Only the closest elders have the disposition of a little daughter.
Si Xingjian didn't think so much. When he saw them coming out, he patted Lan Lan lightly. Then he got up and walked two steps towards the temple gate. Looking at the two beautiful daughters, he nodded slightly, "Come on." Bar."
He was not at all surprised by Zhao Zhao's outfit. When he saw her yesterday, she was also dressed in men's clothing.For a woman to go out alone, this can indeed save a lot of trouble, and it is more convenient, she may be used to it.And this kind of dress looks very similar to him.
No matter what his cub looks like, he naturally likes it.But if it was like him, he would be pleasing to the eye.
Si Xingjian didn't pretend to speak to outsiders, but when facing his own daughter, he naturally wouldn't put on a sullen face.Although he didn't smile, the gentleness in his eyes couldn't be concealed.
Si Anyue had always wanted to see her father's reaction when she saw her sister dressed like this, so she didn't miss the flash of a smile in his eyes. She bowed and saluted as usual, called "Father", and pulled Liang Zhaozhao's sleeve .
She knew that her younger sister was not a shy one, so she could call her "sister" openly, but why was she so dumb after seeing her father now?
Si Anyue thought to herself: No matter what kind of purpose the father has, people's hearts are fleshy, not to mention that Zhao Zhao and his father look so similar, if they get along slowly, maybe his father will cherish Zhao Zhao a little more.
Of course, it is necessary to be close to the father clearly.
Sister Zhaozhao is beautiful and sensible, and her words and deeds are also very measured. She treats her sincerely, and in just one night, she has become extremely rare for this sister.
Even if Zhaozhao doesn't deliberately try to please her father, but just humiliates her father more like an ordinary daughter, and doesn't pay attention to her father who left her in exile for more than ten years, but is grateful to her father for coming to find her. In time, her father will definitely treat her younger sister differently treat each other.
Instead of... not treating her as a commodity for sale as he did to her in the past.
Si Anyue thought bitterly.
She planned for Zhaozhao wholeheartedly, but seeing Zhaozhao lowering her eyes like this, not saying hello to her father, not even looking at him, she felt a little anxious.
Nowadays, the word filial piety is greater than the sky, not to mention that a woman's marriage is entirely decided by her parents. Even if she is dissatisfied with her father and has suspicions in her heart, she dare not show her temper in front of her father, so as not to offend him.In that case, what good can she do?
My sister is like this, maybe she has a grudge against her father in her heart?
Si Anyue couldn't help feeling worried.
Liang Zhaozhao didn't feel resentment, if she didn't care about someone, she would be able to submissively and submissively, even if she had something else to ask, even if she had to admit that the thief was her father.However, she was not normal to this father in her heart.
In fact, she doesn't really believe in the concept of "blood is thicker than water". Compared with blood relationship, she actually pays more attention to getting along with people.If that blood relationship was so important, there would be no such thing as brother killing or selling children and daughters in this world.
However, when she saw this father, she felt kind. She had no doubts that if a group of bandits appeared and the situation was critical, she would rather give up her own life than look at this father who only had less than one relationship with her. Japan's father had an accident...
It's just that her subconscious closeness is one thing, but it's another thing intellectually.
Liang Zhaozhao has either been a slave in other people's family these years, or he has been dependent on others, needless to say the grievances and grievances in it.In terms of material life, she lived a hard life, and her family relationship was even weaker.She first lost her aunt who depended on her for life, and then was abandoned by her own father. Even though she followed Liang Shi these few years, she still didn't feel the affection between mother and daughter.
At a young age, her heart has long been hardened, and she has also developed a cautious temperament. No matter who she faces, she will not treat each other easily and sincerely.
Sometimes she joked and laughed at Yan Yan, and deep in her heart, there seemed to be a villain watching her playfully.It's just that she concealed it well, and these things will not be seen by others.
If she wanted to, she could call "Daddy" affectionately, to please him, to cry about how miserable she had been in the past, to make him feel guilty, and then to want to make up for it.Or show your ability, let him know your value, and then value her.
However, just because she cared, she didn't want to use any means.
If she wants family affection obtained through calculation or profit, she doesn't want it.She hoped that her father would treat her well just because she was his daughter, not because she was so good, she could bring him any benefits...
Her self-esteem does not allow her to do miserable things.
Similarly, because she cared, she couldn't easily say that name, as if she had admitted something as soon as she said that name.
She only appreciates Sister Yue'er's kindness.
Seeing that her body was upright, Si Anyue was unmoved at all, so she raised her head and glanced at Liang Zhaozhao's face, only to see that her pretty face was tense, a face that had not yet grown but was already as gorgeous as a begonia , rewinding a bit of indifference and arrogance, and even a bit of a man's determination can be seen.
Could it be that the younger sister is pretending to be a man, and her temperament and personality have to be deliberately changed?
Si Anyue was quite puzzled, and even had doubts about sister Zhaozhao's attitude towards her father, but she was used to hiding her emotions in front of Si Xingjian, and she didn't show anything on her face.
These thoughts flashed through her mind, Si Anyue withdrew her eyes from sister Zhaozhao's face, and said to Si Xingjian with a smile: "Father, don't you see that sister Zhaozhao is different today?"
Si Anyue thought to herself: She is going all out for sister Zhaozhao. If it had been left in the past, she wouldn't have said such annoying things.
It was true that Si Anyue would not say such things before, but it was not entirely because of Liang Zhaozhao, it was more because of getting along with Si Xingjian along the way, which made her get closer to Si Xingjian, but she hadn't realized it yet. .
The voice of the little girl who is not yet 14 years old is like the breeze wrapped in the fragrance of flowers in spring. Even if she says something rude, it will not be too annoying, let alone such a spoiled child.
Still facing his father.
Of course Si Xingjian would not be annoyed, he smiled lightly and said, "I see."
"Zhaozhao pretends to be a man, so he looks more like me." He looked at the boy who was thinner than the man and less than his shoulder height, "Not bad."
He couldn't help sighing: It would be great if Zhao Zhao was a boy.
It's not that Si Xingjian favors boys over girls, it's just that in this era, men are always more comfortable than women.
Liang Zhaozhao raised his eyes and looked at Si Xingjian, and saw the admiration and regret flashing in his eyes. She really wanted to ask: "I am so similar to you, why did you abandon me in the first place?"
She wasn't complaining, but really puzzled and wanted to know an answer.
But she didn't ask. If he was willing to say it, he should have answered her yesterday.It seems that she can only explore slowly by herself to find out the hidden truth behind it.
Well, she just wanted to get to the bottom of it, so she agreed to follow him so simply, she didn't care about him as a father.
When Si Anyue heard Si Xingjian's answer, she pursed her lips and smiled, "It's my daughter who drew my sister's eyebrows according to her father's."
She deliberately explained that it was not for taking credit, but because she was afraid that her father would misunderstand that her sister had scheming intentions, so she deliberately made her father feel kind.
It's just that she couldn't help but slander her in her heart: Father praised "not bad", is he praising himself?Knowing that Zhao Zhao and him are like...
Si Xingjian boasted, "Yue'er is ingenious."
"It's my younger sister who was born well." Si Anyue shook Zhao Zhao's hand, looked at her with a smile, and motioned for her to say a few words.
Si Anyue wanted her father to notice that her sister looked like him, but she was also afraid that she would keep talking to her father and neglect her sister, making her feel like an outsider.
Liang Zhaozhao is not a person who doesn't know good and bad. She knew that elder sister Yue'er did this to win her favor, so she said, "Your appearance is given by your parents."
When she said this in front of Si Xingjian, although she didn't call "Father" directly, her attitude had actually softened a lot, and it could be regarded as an indirect recognition of her father.
Si Anyue didn't know that Zhao Zhao didn't even call her father, she felt that Zhao Zhao's words were a bit blunt, but she couldn't say more.Talking too much, it seems deliberate, and now Zhao Zhao still seems to have a grudge, going too far.
Si Anyue, who didn't know that Si Xingjian had changed, or that Liang Zhaozhao was the only one who was Si Xingjian's biological daughter, was heartbroken in order to close the relationship between their father and daughter.
Si Xingjian understood Liang Zhaozhao's implication, and showed a shallow smile.
He seldom smiles, but sometimes, the smile doesn't reach his eyes.Although this smile is light now, it is very sincere, like the ice and snow have just melted, if there are flowers around, it may lose its color.
He was wearing a duck-egg green shirt today, only the belt that was slightly darker than the clothes had dark patterns embroidered with silver thread.This very light color, a bit like the surface of a lake shrouded in mist and rain, was originally very attractive, but it did not disobey him in the slightest. On the contrary, it made him look a little more gentle and jade-like, like a clear breeze, The bright moon, compared to yesterday's black clothes, gave people the feeling that it was easier to get close.
Si Anyue was dumbfounded. She used to be afraid of her father and hated her father. She almost never took a closer look at his father's appearance. It turned out that his father was so good-looking.
After she regained her senses, she secretly spurned herself. When will she be deceived by beauty?It's too impolite to even secretly evaluate his father's appearance in his heart.
She didn't want to stare at her father, so she went to look at Liang Zhaozhao who was pretending to be a man. Well, her sister is also good-looking, but she is still a bit young...
Si Anyue is not a woman who loves beauty, but although she has met few people, none of them are ugly, even if the little maids around her are all beautiful, her eyesight is imperceptibly high.Most of the passers-by she saw along the way were men, and there were not many good-looking ones. Now when she saw Si Xingjian and Zhao Zhao dressed in men's clothes, her eyes really brightened.
In the future, with a pretty and delicious younger sister by her side, Si Anyue feels that even if she doesn't know what will happen in the future, at least she can feast her eyes now.
These are just a small episode at the gate of the monastery, and their few gossips did not delay much time.
Si Xingjian asked people to check the temple to avoid any omissions.
With everything in order, they were ready to go.It's just how to allocate the horses, but it's difficult.Originally there were three female relatives, Mu Jin and Si Anyue rode together, and Zhao Qing took Cherry.Now there are two more people, Zhao Man and Liang Zhaozhao, but only one more horse, so there must be two people sharing the ride.
It is impossible for Si Xingjian to allow other men to share a ride with his daughter, let alone these people who ran around all day yesterday without taking a bath and changing clothes.
He didn't take Si Anyue with him before, because she was not his cub, and she had no blood relationship with this body, and the original owner didn't get along with her much, let alone close, not to mention that Si Xingjian had changed now.
In this world that pays attention to incompatibility between men and women, Si Xingjian must avoid suspicion no matter what aspect it is.
For Zhaozhao, he has no scruples in this regard, but it is still somewhat inconvenient, and he is also afraid that Zhaozhao will feel uncomfortable.
Liang Zhaozhao took the initiative to say, "I can ride a horse."
Si Xingjian looked at Zhao Man, "Get out the horse."
If Zhao Manlian and his horse hadn't been recognized by Zhao Zhao, he wouldn't have lost his vest by surprise.
"Ah?" Zhao Man was a little reluctant, he let the horse out, wouldn't that mean he was going to share a horse with someone else?He didn't want to ride with big men.
Seeing Zhao Man looking towards Zhao Zhao and the others, Si Xingjian reminded with a warning: "Huh?"
"Yes." Zhao Man replied aggrievedly, when can he ask for a daughter-in-law and take her for a walk on horseback?But he definitely didn't dare to have any thoughts about the little master. What's the matter with the master's tone of trying to goug his eyes?
Zhao Man had to ride a horse with his brother Zhao Qing.
Si Xingjian did not let Zhao Zhao ride Zhao Man's horse, but gave up his horse. The road in the mountains is not easy to walk, and his horse has spirituality. Dropped people.
Liang Zhaozhao could tell that this was a good horse. Although she could ride a horse, she didn't have a horse of her own.
She walked up to the horse named Wuying, who was barely as tall as the horse. She padded her feet and stretched out her hand to support the saddle. Then she lifted her feet. Before she stepped on the stirrups, the horse gave an impatient look. Snorting, exhaling two puffs of white air, and then the horse's hooves "kicked" twice, and then moved aside.
Liang Zhaozhao's foot slipped and almost fell down. He could only loosen his hands and barely stabilized his figure, but he was at a loss as to where he was standing.She can ride a horse, but now she can't even get on a horse.
Wu Ying turned his head and glanced at the dazed figure, his eyes were full of disdain, as if to say, "You want to control me even with your small body".
Liang Zhaozhao: "..."
Is this a spiritual horse?Could it be that he gave her the horse just to see her laugh?
Si Xingjian really wanted to laugh, but it seemed a little unkind, so she held back.He walked over and stroked Wuying's hair, "Good boy, Wuying, go back and give you sugar cane to eat."
He led the horse with his left hand, nodded his chin slightly at Zhao Zhao, and signaled her to get on the horse.
Liang Zhaozhao was skeptical, and couldn't believe that he could make the horse obedient with just one sentence, but it was her own idea to ride a horse alone before, and now she is too embarrassed to pick and choose, "Change a horse." A tamer horse," she couldn't say.
She is not tall, but her legs are long. In addition to her young age, she is very flexible. The stirrups almost reached her chest.
Sitting on this tall horse, she suddenly felt somewhat condescending.Looking at the comforting figure holding the horse, she wanted to thank her, but she couldn't call him that name...
Si Xingjian didn't care about these things, and she didn't want to delay here any longer. Seeing that Zhao Zhao was sitting still, she patted Wu Ying's neck twice.
He also got on his horse and led the way, followed by Wu Ying.
Si Anyue looked sideways at Liang Zhaozhao who was riding alone, with envy in her eyes, she also wanted to ride the horse happily by herself.
There is plenty of time today, and they don't have to rush as much as yesterday, so they don't have to rush.
After riding for nearly an hour, Si Xingjian was the first to stop by the river.
The river is three or four feet wide, but I don't know how deep it is, and I don't know if a horse can cross it.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, suspecting that Si Xingjian had led the wrong way, but it was difficult to point it out, for fear that he would become angry from embarrassment.
Mu Jin was always alert, coupled with a woman's intuition, she always felt that someone was staring at them. Seeing that Si Xingjian didn't respond, she called "Master" to remind him.
Si Xingjian said: "It's okay, let's get off the horse and rest for a while."
He walked to Wuying, took the bow and arrow, tied half of the square seal, and shot to the opposite bank.
A pile of dry grass rustled to the ground, and two thin and witty figures came out. One went to fetch an arrow, and the other went to pull a bamboo raft from behind the rocks a few steps away.
The two carried the bamboo raft into the water and paddled to the opposite bank.
Yan Shishi held the arrow with the seal on it and went to Si Xingjian, "Master, why did you bring so many people here? Is there something wrong?"
In the past, Si Xingjian brought at most one person, and sometimes came alone. Everything here was hidden from others. If one more person knew, it would be more dangerous. Si Xingjian brought so many people here, it was a bit unusual.
This time Yan Shisi and the others saw so many people from a distance, they were afraid that something might happen.
Si Xingjian was thinking yesterday that if he arrived in Yuezhou City one night earlier, he would be able to make do with the night outside, and the matter here is almost over, it doesn't matter if more people know about it, not to mention that they can't understand what's going on behind the scenes. That's why he took a shortcut without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, by such a coincidence, I met Zhao Zhao halfway.
Si Xingjian felt that there seemed to be something guiding him to meet Zai Zai in the dark.
"Just to borrow a way." Si Xingjian didn't want to say more.
"Yes." Although Yan Shisi was curious, he didn't ask any further questions. He just looked at the horses in confusion, "I'm afraid the horses won't be transported."
"You take care of it for a few days temporarily."
The people crossed the river in several waves, and Si Xingjian was the last one. He asked Yan Shishi: "How long will it take to finish here?"
"It's only ten and a half months. I thought I'd send you a letter in two days, but you actually came here in person."
Si Xingjian said: "Originally, I came to Yuezhou for business, so I stopped by to have a look. There is nothing special."
Half a month should be enough for him to solve Zhao Zhao's troubles and have enough time to rest.
Just like this, Yu Lanlan will lose his trust.
But Lan Lan has always been easy to coax.
Yan Shishi looked to the other side, struggled for a while, and then asked: "Dare to ask the master, that young man..."
Si Xingjian replied in a very calm tone: "Your little master."
Yan Shishi didn't know that Si Xingjian had only one child, and she was a daughter. Hearing what he said was so natural, he only thought that he really had such a big son.
"Then here?" Yan Shisi was thinking: Is it possible that the little master will take over slowly in the future?
Si Xingjian saw Yan Shisan coming over on a diabolo raft, and said, "We can talk about the rest when we return here in half a month."
He got on the bamboo raft and went to the opposite bank to join Liang Zhaozhao and the others, while Yan Shishi went to settle the horses.
Si Xingjian looked at this group of people with doubts on their faces, and didn't say much. This was all arranged by the original owner, and it was too troublesome to explain, let alone no one asked.Even if one day Zhaozhao and Yueer took the initiative to ask, he couldn't tell the truth, otherwise it would be too damaging to his image of an upright, upright and kind father.
"Yes...very similar." Liang Zhaozhao replied with an imperceptible trill, she was a little afraid to meet the "father" that Yue'er was talking about with this face.
She suppressed the urge to wipe off the ink on her eyebrows, and said nonchalantly, "Sister, wash yourself too."
After the two of them washed up and ate some pancakes soaked in broth, they went out with their bags.
There was no one in the courtyard, except for the sound of the wind, Liang Zhaozhao saw that Si Anyue looked puzzled, and explained, "They are waiting outside."
This temple has only one courtyard, regardless of the front and back yards. In order to avoid the inconvenience of the two little girls getting up early, Si Xingjian took all the men out of the temple.
He was trying to persuade Lan Lan that they would all ride horses when they entered the city this time, without a carriage to cover them, it was really inconvenient to take Lan Lan with them.
"Okay, we'll be back in three to five days."
The few people who followed Si Xingjian all the way were used to his attitude towards Lan Lan. Only Zhao Man, who had just joined them, watched Si Xingjian slowly grooming the black panther the size of a pony, and opened his eyes wide in surprise. Eye.
Is it because he has been away from the master for too long?It was already a surprise to see the master giving this beast a barbecue yesterday, but now it's even more so...coaxing gently?The master never treated his wife like this before.
The old and heavy door squeaked, and a boy who was clearly a miniature version of Si Xingjian came out with a girl who was slightly shorter than him.
Well, the master has never coaxed his daughter like this.
Zhao Man added silently in his heart.
Among the people present, only Zhao Man had seen Liang Zhaozhao a few times, and even seen her men's clothes, which was not too surprising. The rest of the people didn't react when they saw Liang Zhaozhao in men's clothes.

Si Anyue was quite puzzled, and even had doubts about sister Zhaozhao's attitude towards her father, but she was used to hiding her emotions in front of Si Xingjian, and she didn't show anything on her face.
These thoughts flashed through her mind, Si Anyue withdrew her eyes from sister Zhaozhao's face, and said to Si Xingjian with a smile: "Father, don't you see that sister Zhaozhao is different today?"
Si Anyue thought to herself: She is going all out for sister Zhaozhao. If it had been left in the past, she wouldn't have said such annoying things.
It was true that Si Anyue would not say such things before, but it was not entirely because of Liang Zhaozhao, it was more because of getting along with Si Xingjian along the way, which made her get closer to Si Xingjian, but she hadn't realized it yet. .
The voice of the little girl who is not yet 14 years old is like the breeze wrapped in the fragrance of flowers in spring. Even if she says something rude, it will not be too annoying, let alone such a spoiled child.
Still facing his father.
Of course Si Xingjian would not be annoyed, he smiled lightly and said, "I see."
"Zhaozhao pretends to be a man, so he looks more like me." He looked at the boy who was thinner than the man and less than his shoulder height, "Not bad."
He couldn't help sighing: It would be great if Zhao Zhao was a boy.
It's not that Si Xingjian favors boys over girls, it's just that in this era, men are always more comfortable than women.
Liang Zhaozhao raised his eyes and looked at Si Xingjian, and saw the admiration and regret flashing in his eyes. She really wanted to ask: "I am so similar to you, why did you abandon me in the first place?"
She wasn't complaining, but really puzzled and wanted to know an answer.
But she didn't ask. If he was willing to say it, he should have answered her yesterday.It seems that she can only explore slowly by herself to find out the hidden truth behind it.
Well, she just wanted to get to the bottom of it, so she agreed to follow him so simply, she didn't care about him as a father.
When Si Anyue heard Si Xingjian's answer, she pursed her lips and smiled, "It's my daughter who drew my sister's eyebrows according to her father's."
She deliberately explained that it was not for taking credit, but because she was afraid that her father would misunderstand that her sister had scheming intentions, so she deliberately made her father feel kind.
It's just that she couldn't help but slander her in her heart: Father praised "not bad", is he praising himself?Knowing that Zhao Zhao and him are like...
Si Xingjian boasted, "Yue'er is ingenious."
"It's my younger sister who was born well." Si Anyue shook Zhao Zhao's hand, looked at her with a smile, and motioned for her to say a few words.
Si Anyue wanted her father to notice that her sister looked like him, but she was also afraid that she would keep talking to her father and neglect her sister, making her feel like an outsider.
Liang Zhaozhao is not a person who doesn't know good and bad. She knew that elder sister Yue'er did this to win her favor, so she said, "Your appearance is given by your parents."
When she said this in front of Si Xingjian, although she didn't call "Father" directly, her attitude had actually softened a lot, and it could be regarded as an indirect recognition of her father.
Si Anyue didn't know that Zhao Zhao didn't even call her father, she felt that Zhao Zhao's words were a bit blunt, but she couldn't say more.Talking too much, it seems deliberate, and now Zhao Zhao still seems to have a grudge, going too far.
Si Anyue, who didn't know that Si Xingjian had changed, or that Liang Zhaozhao was the only one who was Si Xingjian's biological daughter, was heartbroken in order to close the relationship between their father and daughter.
Si Xingjian understood Liang Zhaozhao's implication, and showed a shallow smile.
He seldom smiles, but sometimes, the smile doesn't reach his eyes.Although this smile is light now, it is very sincere, like the ice and snow have just melted, if there are flowers around, it may lose its color.
He was wearing a duck-egg green shirt today, only the belt that was slightly darker than the clothes had dark patterns embroidered with silver thread.This very light color, a bit like the surface of a lake shrouded in mist and rain, was originally very attractive, but it did not disobey him in the slightest. On the contrary, it made him look a little more gentle and jade-like, like a clear breeze, The bright moon, compared to yesterday's black clothes, gave people the feeling that it was easier to get close.
Si Anyue was dumbfounded. She used to be afraid of her father and hated her father. She almost never took a closer look at his father's appearance. It turned out that his father was so good-looking.
After she regained her senses, she secretly spurned herself. When will she be deceived by beauty?It's too impolite to even secretly evaluate his father's appearance in his heart.
She didn't want to stare at her father, so she went to look at Liang Zhaozhao who was pretending to be a man. Well, her sister is also good-looking, but she is still a bit young...
Si Anyue is not a woman who loves beauty, but although she has met few people, none of them are ugly, even if the little maids around her are all beautiful, her eyesight is imperceptibly high.Most of the passers-by she saw along the way were men, and there were not many good-looking ones. Now when she saw Si Xingjian and Zhao Zhao dressed in men's clothes, her eyes really brightened.
In the future, with a pretty and delicious younger sister by her side, Si Anyue feels that even if she doesn't know what will happen in the future, at least she can feast her eyes now.
These are just a small episode at the gate of the monastery, and their few gossips did not delay much time.
Si Xingjian asked people to check the temple to avoid any omissions.
With everything in order, they were ready to go.It's just how to allocate the horses, but it's difficult.Originally there were three female relatives, Mu Jin and Si Anyue rode together, and Zhao Qing took Cherry.Now there are two more people, Zhao Man and Liang Zhaozhao, but only one more horse, so there must be two people sharing the ride.
It is impossible for Si Xingjian to allow other men to share a ride with his daughter, let alone these people who ran around all day yesterday without taking a bath and changing clothes.
He didn't take Si Anyue with him before, because she was not his cub, and she had no blood relationship with this body, and the original owner didn't get along with her much, let alone close, not to mention that Si Xingjian had changed now.
In this world that pays attention to incompatibility between men and women, Si Xingjian must avoid suspicion no matter what aspect it is.
For Zhaozhao, he has no scruples in this regard, but it is still somewhat inconvenient, and he is also afraid that Zhaozhao will feel uncomfortable.
Liang Zhaozhao took the initiative to say, "I can ride a horse."
Si Xingjian looked at Zhao Man, "Get out the horse."
If Zhao Manlian and his horse hadn't been recognized by Zhao Zhao, he wouldn't have lost his vest by surprise.
"Ah?" Zhao Man was a little reluctant, he let the horse out, wouldn't that mean he was going to share a horse with someone else?He didn't want to ride with big men.
Seeing Zhao Man looking towards Zhao Zhao and the others, Si Xingjian reminded with a warning: "Huh?"
"Yes." Zhao Man replied aggrievedly, when can he ask for a daughter-in-law and take her for a walk on horseback?But he definitely didn't dare to have any thoughts about the little master. What's the matter with the master's tone of trying to goug his eyes?
Zhao Man had to ride a horse with his brother Zhao Qing.
Si Xingjian did not let Zhao Zhao ride Zhao Man's horse, but gave up his horse. The road in the mountains is not easy to walk, and his horse has spirituality. Dropped people.
Liang Zhaozhao could tell that this was a good horse. Although she could ride a horse, she didn't have a horse of her own.
She walked up to the horse named Wuying, who was barely as tall as the horse. She padded her feet and stretched out her hand to support the saddle. Then she lifted her feet. Before she stepped on the stirrups, the horse gave an impatient look. Snorting, exhaling two puffs of white air, and then the horse's hooves "kicked" twice, and then moved aside.
Liang Zhaozhao's foot slipped and almost fell down. He could only loosen his hands and barely stabilized his figure, but he was at a loss as to where he was standing.She can ride a horse, but now she can't even get on a horse.
Wu Ying turned his head and glanced at the dazed figure, his eyes were full of disdain, as if to say, "You want to control me even with your small body".
Liang Zhaozhao: "..."
Is this a spiritual horse?Could it be that he gave her the horse just to see her laugh?
Si Xingjian really wanted to laugh, but it seemed a little unkind, so she held back.He walked over and stroked Wuying's hair, "Good boy, Wuying, go back and give you sugar cane to eat."
He led the horse with his left hand, nodded his chin slightly at Zhao Zhao, and signaled her to get on the horse.
Liang Zhaozhao was skeptical, and couldn't believe that he could make the horse obedient with just one sentence, but it was her own idea to ride a horse alone before, and now she is too embarrassed to pick and choose, "Change a horse." A tamer horse," she couldn't say.
She is not tall, but her legs are long. In addition to her young age, she is very flexible. The stirrups almost reached her chest.
Sitting on this tall horse, she suddenly felt somewhat condescending.Looking at the comforting figure holding the horse, she wanted to thank her, but she couldn't call him that name...
Si Xingjian didn't care about these things, and she didn't want to delay here any longer. Seeing that Zhao Zhao was sitting still, she patted Wu Ying's neck twice.
He also got on his horse and led the way, followed by Wu Ying.
Si Anyue looked sideways at Liang Zhaozhao who was riding alone, with envy in her eyes, she also wanted to ride the horse happily by herself.
There is plenty of time today, and they don't have to rush as much as yesterday, so they don't have to rush.
After riding for nearly an hour, Si Xingjian was the first to stop by the river.
The river is three or four feet wide, but I don't know how deep it is, and I don't know if a horse can cross it.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, suspecting that Si Xingjian had led the wrong way, but it was difficult to point it out, for fear that he would become angry from embarrassment.
Mu Jin was always alert, coupled with a woman's intuition, she always felt that someone was staring at them. Seeing that Si Xingjian didn't respond, she called "Master" to remind him.
Si Xingjian said: "It's okay, let's get off the horse and rest for a while."
He walked to Wuying, took the bow and arrow, tied half of the square seal, and shot to the opposite bank.
A pile of dry grass rustled to the ground, and two thin and witty figures came out. One went to fetch an arrow, and the other went to pull a bamboo raft from behind the rocks a few steps away.
The two carried the bamboo raft into the water and paddled to the opposite bank.
Yan Shishi held the arrow with the seal on it and went to Si Xingjian, "Master, why did you bring so many people here? Is there something wrong?"
In the past, Si Xingjian brought at most one person, and sometimes came alone. Everything here was hidden from others. If one more person knew, it would be more dangerous. Si Xingjian brought so many people here, it was a bit unusual.
This time Yan Shisi and the others saw so many people from a distance, they were afraid that something might happen.
Si Xingjian was thinking yesterday that if he arrived in Yuezhou City one night earlier, he would be able to make do with the night outside, and the matter here is almost over, it doesn't matter if more people know about it, not to mention that they can't understand what's going on behind the scenes. That's why he took a shortcut without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, by such a coincidence, I met Zhao Zhao halfway.
Si Xingjian felt that there seemed to be something guiding him to meet Zai Zai in the dark.
"Just to borrow a way." Si Xingjian didn't want to say more.
"Yes." Although Yan Shisi was curious, he didn't ask any further questions. He just looked at the horses in confusion, "I'm afraid the horses won't be transported."
"You take care of it for a few days temporarily."
The people crossed the river in several waves, and Si Xingjian was the last one. He asked Yan Shishi: "How long will it take to finish here?"
"It's only ten and a half months. I thought I'd send you a letter in two days, but you actually came here in person."
Si Xingjian said: "Originally, I came to Yuezhou for business, so I stopped by to have a look. There is nothing special."
Half a month should be enough for him to solve Zhao Zhao's troubles and have enough time to rest.
Just like this, Yu Lanlan will lose his trust.
But Lan Lan has always been easy to coax.
Yan Shishi looked to the other side, struggled for a while, and then asked: "Dare to ask the master, that young man..."
Si Xingjian replied in a very calm tone: "Your little master."
Yan Shishi didn't know that Si Xingjian had only one child, and she was a daughter. Hearing what he said was so natural, he only thought that he really had such a big son.
"Then here?" Yan Shisi was thinking: Is it possible that the little master will take over slowly in the future?
Si Xingjian saw Yan Shisan coming over on a diabolo raft, and said, "We can talk about the rest when we return here in half a month."
He got on the bamboo raft and went to the opposite bank to join Liang Zhaozhao and the others, while Yan Shishi went to settle the horses.
Si Xingjian looked at this group of people with doubts on their faces, and didn't say much. This was all arranged by the original owner, and it was too troublesome to explain, let alone no one asked.Even if one day Zhaozhao and Yueer took the initiative to ask, he couldn't tell the truth, otherwise it would be too damaging to his image of an upright, upright and kind father.
