The little sweetheart dressed as the ghost king

Since that day, Xiji rested for several days before finally recovering.

During this period, Xiji regarded the Night King as a scourge, and once the Night King approached him, he would be on guard.In this regard, the Night King was quite helpless, but he didn't mean to force the Overlord to bow.He just rubbed his soft hair and smiled helplessly.

Seeing this, Xiji breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and secretly made up his mind that he would never tease the Night King like that again next time.

When Xiji finally recovered and the pain in his whole body disappeared, the weather became colder and colder.Looking at the withered and yellowing leaves in the yard, Xiji remembered the brushes and inks that Mr. Pei and the others made last time, and he didn't know what happened to them.

Thinking of this, he wanted to take a look, after all, it was also a very important thing.

After making up his mind, Xiji turned his head to look at Lu Yin, who was still studying hard with Bi Jiang, and said softly, "I want to go to the workshop, you go and help me prepare the carriage."

Hearing this, the two put down the learning tools in their hands, looked at each other, then looked at Xiji, and seemed to have something to say, but they still didn't say it, bowed and saluted, and Bi Jiang To call the carriage.

After Bi Jiang left, Lu Yin patted the fine sand on her hands, then cleaned it with water, then picked up the outfit that Xi Ji was going to wear when going out, came to him, and said with concern: "My lord, since you are going out , then you still have to pay attention to your body."

Xiji looked at the thicker clothes in Lu Yin's hands, and naturally would not object, so she nodded and put them on with her help.

After Xiji got dressed with the help of Lu Yin, Bijiang, who was going to prepare the carriage over there, had already prepared all the things, and came back to report to Xijihui: "My lord, the carriage is ready, you can start. "

Xiji nodded, and then led them towards the workshop.

Because of Xiji, the workshop was built next to the Zhuangzi where he did the experiment last time.This time, when the Night King saw that Xiji wanted to get something new, he allocated all of that area to Xiji, and even sent a small team of people to patrol there to ensure the safety of Xiji and the things he was going to do. Be leaked.

Sitting in the carriage, thinking about what the Night King did for him, Xiji felt that the Night King was actually pretty good, except of course when he was in bed.Thinking of those charming pictures, Xiji's face began to heat up again.Fortunately, the speed of the carriage was fast enough, and it didn't take long to reach the place he was going, so it didn't make him feel ashamed for long.

"Young master, we are here." Lifting the curtain of the carriage, looking at the scenery outside, Lu Yin said to Xiji.Looking at his flushed face, he frowned slightly, wondering if the clothes he brought to the young master just now were too thick, which made him feel hot even sitting here.Thinking of this, I couldn't help but ask with concern, "My lord, do you feel unwell?"

Xiji didn't know why Lu Yin asked such a question, but she was used to their concern from time to time, so the moment she heard this, she discarded all the messy things in her mind, and whispered: "It's nothing."

Lu Yin looked at Xiji's red face and said nothing. After he got off the carriage, he carefully waited on his side to ensure that no accidents would happen to him.

Xiji got out of the carriage, breathed the fresh and cool air outside, couldn't help sighing, "The air in the mountains is better." Then he raised his feet and walked towards the mountain surrounded by everyone.

The Zhuangzi was originally built on the mountain, and there are mountain roads where horse-drawn carriages can pass, but the technology here is not as advanced as modern times. After going up the mountain in a carriage for the first time, I never wanted to go up the mountain in a carriage again, and walked up the mountain by myself every time I reached the foot of the mountain.While eliminating the bumps, you can also exercise your body by the way, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

This Xiji led everyone up the mountain, but someone not far away looked at him in a daze.Seeing Xiji leaving under the escort of everyone, the man dressed as a poor man asked the farmer who came with him: "Who was that brother just now? Why is there such a big show?"

The farmer is a nearby Nodo, and he has seen Xiji once or twice, and he knows that he will come here from time to time, so when he heard his companion's question, he replied unpreparedly: "That's the Night King's." I have a good heart, I heard that I got something in this village, so I will come here to have a look from time to time."

"What are you doing?" Hearing this, the man asked curiously.

Hearing his words, the farmer smiled, and said bluntly: "How can I, a vulgar man, know what the nobleman got. I see you, don't ask about these things, and be careful not to cause trouble." upper body."

Hearing his companion's advice, the man nodded as if he had come to his senses, and said repeatedly, "You are right."

The two of them had gone up to the mountain to collect wild game. Now that the game was received, it was time to leave.After the farmer finished speaking, he beckoned the man to leave together.

Hearing this, the man nodded and followed the farmer down the mountain, but before leaving, he still took a look at Xiji who was surrounded by everyone, if he was right.The brother who was surrounded and dressed gorgeously was clearly the master's brother, Xiji.Taking a deep look at the brother who was no longer as simple as before, the man followed the farmer down the mountain, but he was thinking about how to tell the young master about it when he went back.

Xiji didn't know that someone had his idea on him. After walking for about half an hour, he finally came to the workshop. Xiji stopped the guards who wanted to go in to report, and he took Lu Yin and them straight to the workshop. went in.

Relying on the memories of the previous few times, Xiji easily found Mr. Pei who was discussing matters with the craftsman in the pen-making room.Looking at Mr. Pei who was seriously discussing matters with the craftsman, Xiji felt very emotional. If Mr. Pei lived in modern times, he must be a very qualified researcher.

Even though Xiji didn't want to disturb Mr. Pei, the goal of their group was too big. Not long after they entered, Mr. Pei turned his head to look in their direction as if he sensed their existence.The brows that were still frowning stretched out the moment he saw Xiji, looked at Xiji and said happily: "Young Master, I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect you to come here today."

Hearing his words, Xiji blushed a little for some reason, and said in a concealed manner: "I was delayed by something a few days ago, so I couldn't come. I don't know how your research is doing in the few days I didn't come. "

Hearing Xiji's question, Mr. Pei seemed to remember something for a moment, and quickly asked someone to take the results they had made during this period of time.

Xiji looked at the well-made writing brushes of different sizes, and the black things next to it, which could be seen as ink at a glance, and his face was full of surprise, "Master Pei, you Got something out already?"

Seeing that Xiji was so pleasantly surprised, Mr. Pei also showed a bit of pride on his face. He stroked his thinning beard and said with some pride: "Thanks to your son's guidance, we made the ink that is easy to make at the beginning. After making it, the brushes made later are barely usable."

When Xiji heard this, he quickly said modestly: "I didn't do anything. Thanks to your hard work day and night, I made it. If you say that the biggest contributor here is you."

Xiji's words made Mr. Pei feel very appropriate, but he didn't show it. He tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth that wanted to turn up, and said modestly: "My son is serious."

Hearing Mr. Pei's modest words, Xiji did not continue to be polite, but looked at him and said, "I want to try these things."

"It's natural." Hearing Xiji's request, he naturally agreed repeatedly, and then asked someone to prepare the best paper and the best pen, wanting to give Xiji a test effect.

Xiji looked at the person who was about to prepare, as if he had thought of something, he hurriedly stopped the person, and under the slightly doubtful eyes of everyone, he said lightly: "Don't just take the best, all you Give me a copy of everything you make."

Xiji's order seemed a little inexplicable to the man, so the man glanced at Mr. Pei, and after receiving a positive signal, he bowed and saluted, and went down to prepare.

The man was very fast, and within a short while all the things were prepared, and they were lined up on a long table.

Xiji looked at the paper, brushes, and ink arranged according to the quality, and was very satisfied.Under the watchful eyes of everyone, I only wrote a simple word to test it, then looked at the words on the paper, and silently compared them.

After looking at the words written with different effects, Xiji was silent for a moment, and then asked Mr. Pei about the time it took to make those things, and the answer he got was the same as he imagined.The better the quality looks, the more time it will take.

Xiji recorded what Mr. Pei said on the paper one by one, then looked at them and thought for a while, and finally selected three kinds of paper, four pens, and two kinds of ink, looked at Mr. Pei and said : "My lord, please prepare more of the things I selected. I will use them in a few days. If there is not enough funds or manpower, send someone to tell me, and I will come up with a solution when the time comes."

Hearing this, Mr. Pei glanced at Xi Ji, and said respectfully: "This subordinate knows that things will be prepared according to what you said."

Hearing Mr. Pei's promise, Xiji's slender and white fingers slid across the papers little by little, and a happy smile appeared on his face. He seemed to see countless gold and silver beckoning to him.

After explaining everything that needs to be explained, Xiji took Lu Yin and the others down the mountain.

When going up the mountain, thinking about the results, thinking about things in my heart, I couldn’t see other things in my eyes. When I went down the mountain, looking at the yellow leaves all over the mountain, Xiji had a feeling that winter was about to begin.

Stepping on the dead leaves under his feet, looking at those golden ginkgo leaves, Xiji thought of dumplings for some reason, he wanted to eat them.

Thinking of the delicious dumpling that lingered in the mouth after one bite, Xiji couldn't hold back the eagerness in his heart, maybe he could make a meat stuffing with mushrooms.

After thinking about what to eat on the way, the first thing Xiji did when he returned to the mansion was to ask his servants to help him prepare the ingredients for cooking.

Hearing that it was Xiji's order, those people did not dare to neglect, and according to his request, they quickly prepared what he needed.

In the past, when Xiji was preparing to eat, Lu Yin and Bijiang would also accompany him. Seeing Xiji kneading noodles at this time, he couldn't help asking curiously: "Is the young master preparing to make buns? But it's going to be night soon. I'm afraid it's not suitable to make buns, right?"

Hearing her question, Xiji smiled slyly and said, "Don't make steamed stuffed buns today, and do something else."

Hearing this, Lu Yin didn't ask any more questions, but instead took over another job, and started to work according to her young master's instructions.

Bijiang saw that Luyin was already chopping vegetables briskly, so he wanted to help Xiji make noodles.

Xiji didn't want to hand over this matter to Bijiang at first, but later, considering that she still had to roll the dumpling wrappers, she let her do it.

With the joint efforts of the three masters and servants, it took Xiji and the others an hour to make enough dumplings.

After learning that the Night King had already returned, Xiji took the cooked dumplings together with other dishes to the place where the two of them ate, and before leaving, he told Lu Yin and the others: "You don't have to follow Waiting, come here after eating the dumplings, or they won't taste good when they get cold later."

Hearing this, the two who knew Xiji's temper did not insist on following. They watched Xiji leave, and then turned their eyes to the dumplings left for them in the kitchen.Looking at the Bai Shengsheng's dumplings, he thought that they would finish eating quickly, so that they could go back to serve them sooner.

After arranging the maids around her, Xiji hurriedly walked towards the dining room with the dumplings in her hand.Before stepping into the door, he saw the night king who was tidy and sitting there. The moment he saw Siji come in, the night king looked at Siji.The gaze that was still somewhat cold, the moment it touched Xiji, it disappeared quickly like ice and snow melting, leaving only tenderness.

The Night King's mood changes only in an instant, and Xi Ji, who was carefully protecting the things in his arms, naturally didn't notice it. As soon as he entered the room, he looked at the Night King and said happily: "My lord, I made a new one today. Eat food, adults should have a good taste."

Hearing this, the Night King asked calmly, seemingly curious, "But what did you bring in just now?"

"Yes." Xiji responded, pushing the plate of dumplings in the direction of the Night King, and then motioned to the attendants behind to put the dipping ingredients he prepared on the small table next to him, and continued: " My lord, I went to the mountain today, and I wanted to eat this thing when I came back, so I made some. My lord, you should try it first to see if it suits your taste."

Hearing what Xiji said, Ye Wang didn't say much, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a white dumpling, put it in his mouth, and could taste the aroma of mushroom meat after one bite.The Night King, who had never eaten this food before, nodded cooperatively and praised: "It tastes good."

Hearing what he said, the smile on Xiji's face became bigger and bigger, and then he took two small plates, handed one to the Night King, took one in his own hand, and then stood up carelessly, from the pile Pick out the flavors you want from the ingredients and put them in your own small dish.

After finishing his own dipping water, he looked at Ye Wang and introduced: "Eating dumplings, this dipping water is also very important. Sir, you can make one according to your taste, and I guarantee that you will find this dumpling more delicious."

The Night King watched Xiji prepare the dipping water by himself, then picked up a dumpling and ate it. He didn't intend to help him make one at all, and frowned slightly, as if he was a little unhappy and said: " Won't you make one for me?"

Hearing this, Xiji was a little confused, the dumpling in his mouth hadn't been swallowed yet, he blinked his big eyes and looked at the Night King, as if he didn't understand the situation and said: "But I don't know what flavor of dipping water you like, my lord. , if I make something that doesn’t suit adults, I will waste such a delicious dumpling.”

Although what Siji said was right, the Night King was still a little unhappy when he heard what Siji said, and there was a bit of stubbornness in his eyes when he looked at him.

Seeing the appearance of the Night King, Xiji didn't know what kind of temper the Night King was having, but he would never argue with the Night King on such trivial matters, so he stood up again and took him from the Night King's hand According to the night king's preferences he observed in the past, he made him a dip that he should like.

The Night King watched from the side, seeing that Xiji made everything he liked, his frown relaxed a little bit, until Xiji put the dipping water in front of him, and told him to keep the dumplings while they were hot. Eat, Night King's dissatisfaction just now disappeared.

Xiji looked at Ye Wang whose aura had returned to calm, and knew that he was satisfied, so he continued to eat his own food, but after picking up the dumplings with his chopsticks, he seemed to think of something, which was originally going to be in his bowl Things turned a corner and went into the Night King's bowl.

The Night King looked at the dumplings that fell into his bowl, and Sigina's always gentle voice came from his ears, "My lord, please try it quickly. In the past, our family didn't want to cook, so they would eat this to satisfy their hunger. We will meet once in a while." Make a lot of them, put them in the ice cellar, and then take them out when you want to eat them, and eat them directly. But at that time, there were a lot of people in the family, so there were many flavors. The whole family gathered together and made it lively. interesting."

Speaking of this, Xiji looked at the dumplings in the bowl, and suddenly fell silent, wondering if he died in that era after he left.If that's the case, I don't know how sad his parents, elder brother, grandpa, and grandma will be.I haven't thought about these things for a long time, but when I suddenly think of them now, Xiji still feels a little sad.

When the Night King heard Xiji mention his family, he put down the chopsticks in his hand, and then looked at the loneliness on Xiji's face.He swallowed back what he wanted to ask, picked up a dumpling and put it in his bowl, and said indifferently: "I'll make it with you someday when I'm free." Up to this point, it seemed that it wasn't enough, He continued, "You can have whatever flavor you want."

Xiji, who was still immersed in his own sorrow, suddenly heard the words of the Night King. Although he felt that his words were stiff, it did not prevent him from hearing a strong sense of comfort.Immediately, most of the sad mood just disappeared, and when he looked up at the uncomfortable look of the Night King, he remembered that the Night King was not very good at comforting people in the past, and now he promised to cook with him for the first time. I think I should appreciate it.

Thinking of this, Xiji laughed happily, nodded heavily, and said in response: "Okay, if your lord has time sometime, we will make dumplings together."

Ye Wang silently looked at Xiji, who became happy again, and responded in a low voice, and then ate in silence, but he remembered that he wanted to accompany Xiji to make dumplings.

Xiji didn't know what Ye Wang was thinking, and when he was in a better mood, he naturally put other dishes into Ye Wang's bowl, and talked about the interesting things in recent days, all of which were not worth mentioning. Little things, but in Xiji's view, they are all very interesting little things.

The Night King listened silently to Xiji's daily little happiness without interjecting. Looking at the smile on his face, he suddenly felt that the two of them were like an ordinary couple. He was working hard outside, while his own Fu Lang does the housework at home.This thought only flashed through the Night King's mind, but the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily.

Outside the window is the howling autumn wind, and inside the house is Xiji's intermittent homework, a warm room.

The man who hurried back from the Xi family not far from Yecheng asked to see the young master who was in charge of the family as soon as he came back.The maid who guarded the gate glanced at him, and went in to report. After a while, someone came out and invited him in.

When the man went in, he found that besides the young master who was in charge of the family affairs, even the master and wife of the Xi family were there.Seeing this, the man quickly knelt on the ground and saluted.

The young master of the Xi family looked at the man kneeling on the ground, and asked casually: "I heard that you have something to report, what is it?"

Hearing the words, the man hurriedly said: "Report to the young master, I saw Ji Ge'er today."

Hearing this, the young master of the Xi family who had no expression at first raised his eyebrows, then he turned his eyes on this person, and asked with a trace of eagerness that he didn't notice: "Is it Xi?" lucky?"

"Yes." The man kowtowed his head again, and said solemnly: "Although I haven't seen Ji Ge'er many times, I will never admit it wrong. Today, I will go to the outskirts of Yecheng to collect the wild goods my wife wants. , I saw Ji Geer surrounded by everyone on that mountain, I saw it so clearly, I can't be wrong."

Hearing the words, the young master of the Xi family thought for a moment, then looked at the man again and asked, "How was his condition when you saw it?"

Hearing his question, the man looked up at his expression, then thought for a while, and said in a non-offensive tone as much as possible: "Ji Ge'er is doing well, everything on her body is very good, even around her Followed, besides the two maidservants, there are also a few strong bodyguards." Speaking of this, he glanced at Young Master Xi's expression, and added, "It looks like a very well-bred look."

Hearing this, the young master of the Xi family frowned, gave instructions to the servant next to him, and waved his hand to signal that he could go down, "Come and take him down to collect the reward."

Hearing the order, the man's face was filled with joy, and he went down with a thousand thanks.

It wasn't until the man left that there was a little movement in the originally quiet room, but there was a loud rage, and the potbellied man cursed: "That bastard who eats food and drinks by himself, but doesn't help the family. I don't even think about it. Who sent him there, if it wasn't for us, would he be where he is today?"

Young Master Xi frowned when he heard the words, looked at his angry father, and said in a low voice: "Father, don't be impatient, we need to think about the future."
