The little sweetheart dressed as the ghost king
Chapter 131 Calculation
The Night King came in shortly after the gatekeeper had passed the pass.It wasn't surprising to see Cheng Dieyi inside besides Xiji.Watching her stand up coldly, she saluted awkwardly towards him, and nodded her head as a response.
After that indifferent glance, Ye Wang turned his gaze to Xiji's face. He had never seen a flash of unwillingness on Cheng Dieyi's face because of his contempt.
The Night King stared at Siji's face that was a little more bloody than before, and his plain voice was a little more gentle, "How do you feel today?"
Xiji laughed and replied: "It's much better than yesterday, the doctor's medicine is very useful, I think I should be much better than expected."
"That's good." After saying this, the Night King stopped talking.
Xiji suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange. If it was normal, he and the Night King must have other things to say, but at this moment, looking at Cheng Dieyi standing beside him who seemed very nervous, he sighed silently.Whether it was intentional or not, Siki always felt that the Night King seemed to be deliberately cold.
In order not to let the atmosphere continue to be so embarrassing that it would be suffocating, Xiji had no choice but to stand up, looked at Ye Wang and said, "Miss Cheng is here to deliver ginseng soup to me today."
"Yeah." The Night King nodded, and said nothing more.The atmosphere in the room fell into silence once again.
Siki: ...
what can he doHe is also very embarrassing!
Just when Xiji was at a loss and didn't know what to do, Cheng Dieyi saw something and bit his lip.First, he took a look at Ye Wang, who sat down there and drank tea, and stopped looking at himself, then turned his head to look at Xiji, and said apologetically, "My lord, Mr. Xi, it's getting late." , I have to go back to eat with my aunt."
Seeing this, Xiji knew that it was because of the attitude of the Night King that she wanted to leave early, so she forced a smile and nodded her head as a tacit consent.
Seeing that Xiji had no objection, Cheng Dieyi turned his head and saluted in the direction of the King of the Night, and then left with the maid beside him.After stepping out of the gate of the yard, he clenched the cloth towel in his hand, with a bit of resentment on his face.When he was in the house just now, the Night King never looked at him from the beginning to the end.
It's just that he quickly thought of his aunt's advice, and suppressed this resentment again.Forget it, the future is long, as long as he still has a chance to become the Night King, it is not a big deal if he is wronged now.Thinking of this, Cheng Dieyi's signature gentle smile appeared on his face again.
After Cheng Dieyi left, Xiji turned his head to look at the Night King who was sitting there calmly, and asked a little strangely: "My lord, why did you come back so early today?"
Hearing Xiji's words, Ye Wang raised his eyelids, and seemed to feel that his words were a bit redundant, but he still patiently explained the reason why he came back so early, "The filial piety from below is here, I think it's still early , I want to take you to have a look, if you think it is suitable, I will stay in the yard."
Hearing this, Xiji immediately understood what the Night King meant, that he had to choose first and choose well.Knowing this, Xiji naturally couldn't disappoint his kindness, and immediately showed him a happy smile, "Thank you, sir!"
"Yeah." The Night King looked at the sincere thanks on Siji's face, and the look of stars in those eyes looking at him, turned his head a little uncomfortable, and did not look at him.
Although Xiji looked at the Night King a little strangely, but the sensible person didn't ask any more questions, but instead asked happily: "My lord, shall we go there now?"
"Well. Those things are now in the outer courtyard. After you finish choosing, there will be special people to clean them up." The Night King said lightly. In fact, according to the usual practice, these things will be put into the warehouse as soon as they arrive in the mansion, and then the housekeeper will Pick the best ones for him to enjoy.
But when the housekeeper asked him as usual today if he put all those things into the warehouse as usual, he didn't know why he suddenly thought of Xiji.That brother sometimes seems to like something different from others.So, he thought of letting Xiji choose by himself, and naturally he came up with the one in front of him.
After listening to the Night King's narration, Xiji naturally understood that it was the Night King's order to do this.Therefore, after knowing that I can see what other people's tributes are, and even choose by myself, the smile on my face grows bigger.The rainbow fart also seemed to be free of money, and it was broadcast towards the Night King who did not want money, "My lord, you are so kind, you always think of me for all good things, and I have never seen a person who is more generous than you."
Hearing Xiji's series of good words, the Night King put his hand on his lips, coughed pretendingly, and said in a serious manner: "Okay, stop talking, let's go there now. There are a lot of things there, wait After you make your selection, it will probably take some time."
"En." Xiji didn't delay, and wanted to walk outside after hearing the words.He only took two steps, and seemed to think of something, turned back, held the hand of the Night King, and said calmly: "My lord, let's go."
The Night King looked at Xiji, who was walking in front, looking excited, and then at the hand he was holding, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
When the two of them arrived at the place where the goods were piled up in the outer courtyard, Xiji realized that what the Night King said was not a joke. The things piled up here can be added up to open a large grocery store.
Compared with Xiji, who was quite surprised, Night King was already used to it.Although he had never seen these things piled up before, the territory he ruled was not small, and he could guess how many things were sent below.
Seeing Xiji standing there blankly, as if he didn't know where to start, Ye Wang raised his chin slightly, and said contemptuously: "Anyway, these things will belong to the mansion from now on. It doesn't matter if you don't finish reading today." , we can continue watching tomorrow."
Hearing this, Xiji came back to his senses completely, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly as he thought about it.They didn't come to inspect the territory, so they didn't need to be so careful.It's just that the words of the Night King also reminded him that they will use these things in the future anyway, and now he only needs to choose the things he is interested in.
So Xiji, who had no psychological burden, happily walked into the pile of things and picked out the things he was interested in, looking like a happy mouse that fell into a rice bowl.
Seeing that Xiji couldn't finish choosing for a while, the Night King didn't intend to go back early, but stood by and waited for him.
Soon, a winking servant brought chairs and tea and snacks.
The Night King was very satisfied with this servant's behavior, nodded his head for the first time, and said, "Well done."
After saying these words, the Night King cast his eyes on Xiji who was happily picking things over there, and did not see the servant next to him at all, who was very happy after hearing that this was not a compliment.
Xiji feels that the things here are much richer than he imagined. Not only are there rare wild game, jewelry, and silk satins, but there are also some weird things that the people below find interesting, even those people I don't know for what purpose, I also wrote a manual about that thing next to it.
Whenever Xiji encounters something he has never seen before or is interested in, he will stop by the side, thinking about whether he needs such a thing.If it is needed, a label will be posted next to it, and the manager will carry it to his yard later.
Just after Xiji picked a lot of ingredients and some seasonings, Xiji suddenly found a strange box, which looked gaudy and had no similarity with the simple and unusual things next to it.
This distinctive box immediately aroused Xiji's interest. He immediately walked over and opened it, only to find that the contents inside were different from what he had imagined.There are only a few fruits and a small clay bottle inside.
Siki:? ? ?
But soon, Xiji was attracted by the seal of the pottery bottle. He was surprised to find that it was not cloth or cork, but something similar to a modern plastic cover.
Xiji thought he had read it wrong, so he immediately picked up the small bottle, took off the cap, and looked through it carefully. Except that it was softer than the modern bottle cap, it was completely Plastic bottle caps!
Xiji immediately became excited. He was still worrying about how to store the produced alcohol, but he didn't expect someone to send a pillow when he fell asleep.At the moment, he didn't care about other things, picked up the gaudy box, trotted all the way to the side of the Night King, and asked excitedly: "My lord, can you help me ask, where did this come from?"
The Night King looked at Xiji's excitement, as if seeing a puppy with fleshy bones, he was so happy that he almost wagged his tail.So, he put down the tea in his hand, looked at Xiji and asked inexplicably: "What's the matter? What's so strange about this thing?"
Xiji immediately talked about the difficulty of storing alcohol and the magical effect of this thing.After hearing this, the Night King's eyes, which he didn't care about before, became a little more cautious. He looked at the eager Xiji and said with relief: "Don't worry, since this thing is so useful, I'll call someone later to contact you. Pay tribute to the place where this thing came up, and let them collect more of these fruits for your use."
With the night king's promise, Xiji didn't panic anymore, put the things down, looked at the night king with a sweet smile and said, "Thank you, my lord."
The Night King was dazed by Xiji's smile, quickly looked away, and continued in a blunt tone: "In this case, you should put the things here first, and then go to see if there is anything in there." You still need it."
"Yeah." Xiji nodded heavily, and didn't worry about the Night King who suddenly seemed a little uncomfortable. After putting down the things, he happily ran back to those things and looked through them carefully.
Because of the big discovery just now, Xiji searched more carefully than before, but to his disappointment, he found nothing useful except for the thing just now.Siki sighed silently, and then harvested a bunch of unusual ingredients.
Seeing Xiji seriously lowering his head and choosing what he wanted, the Night King beckoned to the servants around him to come over.That servant was also clever, and without waiting for the Night King to speak, he said directly, "My lord, what do you want to order?"
The Night King handed over the things in his hand, without even taking his eyes off Siji, he casually ordered: "Go and ask where it was sent."
"Yes." The servant took the thing from the Night King's hand very respectfully, and then took the thing towards the butler at a speed never seen in his life.It would be a good thing if he became acquainted with the Night King because of this matter.Thinking of this, his pace became more and more brisk.
After the man left, Xiji had almost finished the selection. Although he didn't find another magical thing like that fruit, it was good to have that fruit, and Xiji was not greedy.Glancing at the sky, he felt that it was almost time for dinner, so he returned to Night King's side, and smiled at him embarrassedly: "My lord, I accidentally forgot the time, shall we go back to eat?"
The Night King didn't move. Instead, he looked at the things behind Xiji and asked as if describing: "Why didn't you choose some fabrics to make clothes? Those are all high-quality silk."
Hearing what the Night King said, Xiji felt a little embarrassed. He is not a woman, so naturally he doesn't like to dress up very much.Besides, the pile of clothes that the Night King made for him last time, he hasn't worn them a few times, so he doesn't need to buy new clothes.
So, he looked at the Night King and shook his head, and said with some embarrassment: "I haven't worn the clothes my lord made for me last time, so I don't need to make them again."
The Night King looked at Xiji's little face that was slightly flushed because of this exercise, and then looked at the piles of fabrics and furs not far away, and said in a deep voice: "I saw the things sent this time. There are fine furs, and I will ask someone to make some cloaks for you, so as not to catch cold when you go out."
Seeing that the Night King's words had reached this point, Xiji didn't continue to decline, but just looked at the Night King, and the smile on his face grew bigger.
The Night King looked at Sigina's smile, his eyes darkened.
……
"Did you meet an adult yesterday?" Fu Jinlian asked casually as she looked at her niece who was buried in her food, but stopped from time to time as if she was thinking about something.
When Cheng Dieyi saw that his aunt had asked, he didn't intend to hide it, so he put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand.Then I looked at my aunt, seemed a little confused, and said a little annoyed: "Auntie, I don't know if it's my illusion, I always feel that adults don't like me. Every time I meet adults, he just ignores me Yes. I don’t know if adults can still notice me if I continue like this.”
When Fu Jinlian heard what she said, she knew that she was being stupid again, so she quickly grabbed one of her hands, patted it lightly, and comforted her: "When have you ever seen the King of the Night be kind to others?"
Hearing the aunt's question, although Cheng Dieyi was unwilling, a figure of a person immediately appeared in his mind, watching his aunt half complaining and half dissatisfied, and said: "But my lord treats Mr. Xi very much." OK!"
Fu Jinlian was taken aback when she heard the words, she also knew that what her niece said was right, but she couldn't find words to refute it for a while.But soon, she adjusted her mentality, looked at Cheng Dieyi and said affirmatively:
"That's because his face is so outstanding. Your aunt and I have grown up so much, and I have never seen a brother who looks better than Mr. Naxi. If there is one, it is only me." My younger brother who died a long time ago is comparable. But if it is really necessary to compare, my younger brother is also inferior to him by three points."
Seeing that Xiji was so favored, and hearing his aunt say the same, Cheng Dieyi became more and more jealous.
Seeing her like this, Fu Jinlian knew that she was wrong, so she raised her head with her fingertips, stared at her face, and said seriously: "But you have to know that his face can arouse a man's desire. But your face is not bad. Do you know how pitiful those men will be when they see you with such a pitiful expression? You have to know that under normal circumstances, only a woman who can make men love her can live a good life. "
Cheng Dieyi's slight dissatisfaction just now was dispersed by Fu Jinlian's few words. At this time, the light in her aunt's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Seeing her like this, Fu Jinlian became more and more satisfied. Finally, this child was no longer that little girl who didn't know the world.She stroked her face, as if recalling it, and said as if sighing: "Now that you understand, you should make good use of your face in the future."
"En." At this moment, Cheng Dieyi nodded very simply.But soon, she remembered the question she wanted to ask at the beginning, looked at Fu Jinlian and asked seriously: "Auntie, I think the Night King really doesn't like it. In fact, it's not that he doesn't like it, he just raised him at will. A plant in my own yard. I don't pay attention to it, and I don't like or dislike it. If this continues, how can I make him pay attention to me?"
Hearing this, Fu Jinlian lowered her head and thought for a while, just as she was about to raise her head to say something to her niece, there was a servant girl's announcement from outside the door.
"Auntie, Miss Chen, the housekeeper has delivered something."
Both of them were startled, and they looked at each other, and they both saw some doubts in each other's eyes.Immediately, he did not continue the conversation, but stood up and walked out.
The two were a little surprised until they saw the pile of things piled up in the yard.There are piles of things there, including brocades, ingredients, and a few strange things.
It was Fu Jinlian who was the first to react, and came to the servant who came to give the gift, and asked politely: "Excuse me, what are these things?"
"Auntie is too polite." Seeing Fu Jinlian being so polite, the servant said with trepidation: "These things are filial piety to the adults from below, because this year my aunt is here, so the housekeeper will share a share with my aunt as well. I hope my aunt will not be disgusted."
Hearing his words, another amiable smile appeared on Fu Jinlian's face. Looking at the servant who came to give the gift, she said kindly: "It's too late for me to be so disgusted. I was originally at my husband's house. The monthly case received is less than one-third of this. I have to thank the Night King, who still remembers me as an old woman."
Hearing Fu Jinlian's words, the servants couldn't help but murmur in their hearts, in fact, it was Ye Wangji who cared about them, obviously it was the housekeeper who did things properly.In the past, there was only the Night King as the master in this mansion, so no one objected to the fact that all the good things belonged to the Night King.
It's just this year, whether it's Mr. Xi who seems to be very favored, or the aunt and grandma who have obviously come to defect.How to allocate is a problem. When I asked Ye Wang for his opinion, I got a sentence from Young Master Xi to let him choose the best one.It is clear at a glance which is more important.
However, it's not his turn to be an errand runner to make irresponsible remarks about these things.Looking at the aunt who seemed to be moved to tears and was wiping the corners of her eyes with a towel at this time, he politely said goodbye, "Auntie, since you have accepted the things, it is up to my aunt how to deal with them afterwards." Make the decision. The younger one has to do other things ordered by the housekeeper, so I will leave first."
"Thanks for your hard work." Fu Jinlian said while asking the maid who followed her to give them money.
The man took the reward, thanked Fu Jinlian and the others several times, and left quickly.
After the person left, the two walked around the pile of things, and found that the things inside were all unusual and rare.Their faces couldn't help showing a bit of joy, because they had already planned to save food and money because they were dependent on others.I didn't expect the Night King to be so generous, and he must still be thinking about them.
Therefore, Fu Jinlian, who thought she still had some status in the heart of the Night King, immediately ordered the maid behind her, "Put these categories away."
"Yes."
……
"My lord, eat and have a look. I saw that there was actually a jar of honey in it. I thought I hadn't eaten a cake for a long time, so I made one. You can try it to see if it suits your taste." Xiji happily held the one on hand. Cut a piece of the cake, put it in a special bowl, and handed it to the Night King.
When Ye Wang received the cake, he naturally ate it unceremoniously, but the portion that was originally enough for Xiji to eat more than a dozen mouthfuls was eaten by Ye Wang in just a few mouthfuls.After finishing eating, he said rather flatly, "Shang Ke, this thing is a bit too sweet."
Hearing what the Night King said, Xiji kept smiling. He felt that if the Night King didn't eat so fast, it might be more convincing.
……
Because of the things that King Ye sent, Cheng Dieyi and Fu Jinlian thought they had some face in front of King Ye.Therefore, they became more and more confident, and it became easier to even summon the servants assigned to them.
Cheng Dieyi took the clothes that she had accidentally soiled in her hands, and walked along the wall towards the backyard. She remembered that there was a well there, and she wanted to wash it by herself.
Unexpectedly, as they passed a corner, they heard low voices talking in front, Cheng Dieyi seemed to be still hearing his name inside.Seeing a servant girl gossiping behind her back and using herself as the main character, Cheng Dieyi became furious, and just about to go over and teach them a lesson, when they changed the subject,
"Do you think the Night King is interested in Miss Cheng? Otherwise, why would he send so many things?"
"Yes, do you know what a lot is? The things sent over are just a drop in the bucket of those tributes."
"No, no?"
"I have a sister who works in the yard of Mr. Xi. It is said that when these things arrived that day, the adults took you to pick them out. Later, the fabrics for making clothes for you are comparable to the piles sent over. .”
"Oh my god, my lord really dotes on Mr. Xi."
"That is, I heard that there is nothing in his room that is ordinary, and everything is priceless."
"I've heard that too, and I've also heard that Mr. Xi is a very nice person."
"Yes, but what's the matter, even if Mr. Xi is a good person, it's not our turn to serve you."
Hearing this, Cheng Dieyi realized how ridiculous it was to be self-satisfied this day. He obviously picked up what was left by others, but he was still so happy.And listening to the maid's tone, it is clear that serving them is a hard job.All of these are because they are not favored.
Just when Cheng Dieyi hated her teeth and wanted to go out and teach them a lesson, the two maids changed the subject again, and changed the subject:
"But I think that Miss Cheng may not always be like this."
"How do you say that?"
"I'll tell you, don't talk nonsense!"
"Of course."
Cheng Dieyi held her breath, nervously waiting for the next words, as if realizing that the next words might bring her a great turning point.
"Isn't Mr. Xi deeply loved by adults? I heard from my sisters who were there that they are almost inseparable, and they have done that kind of thing. But until now, your stomach still hasn't moved in the slightest."
"You mean?"
"I didn't say anything. I just think that if Mr. Xi has been like this, and our Miss Cheng finds a chance to have an affair with King Ye, then you think her status will not rise with the tide?"
"Wow, you're right."
"Of course I'm right."
"Then do you know when Miss Cheng will be able to take over?"
"How do I know? It depends on her ability. After all, her purpose is so obvious, and my lord is not a man who can easily handle it."
When Cheng Dieyi heard that she was pregnant and had a child, the mother was more expensive than the child, so she couldn't listen anymore.His heart was beating wildly, as if something was about to come out.
She couldn't listen to anything else, grabbed the clothes in her hand, and walked back along the way she came.
"That's right, child. If Xiji has been unable to give birth to a child, it is impossible for the Night King to guard him all the time."
……
Not long after Xiji's drawings were sent, the master over there sent someone to say that the utensils he wanted would be ready in three days, and he should be reported in advance.
After hearing the news, Xiji was surprised at their speed, while considering whether to start preparing materials from now on.Thinking of the news from the Night King, Xiji felt a little tangled. How much material did he need to prepare this time? If he prepared it in advance, what would happen if the jelly fruit over there was not ready?
Yes, jelly fruit is the thing he discovered last time that looks like plastic but is softer than plastic.It was something from a small county that was only a day's journey away from Yecheng. The county magistrate brought it up at the beginning because their county was not very rich and couldn't produce anything decent.When someone proposed to present this kind of fruit that can be used to seal the bottle and does not agree with air leakage, the county magistrate sent it up like a living horse doctor.
What he didn't expect was that the things he sent up inadvertently actually played a great role, and even made the Night King notice him.Even when he received the task list from the Night King asking him to collect all the fruits, he couldn't believe his eyes.
Because he would actually receive a letter written by the Night King himself one day.Then, he promised the Night King that he would deliver the collected jelly as soon as possible, and at the same time sent people to work overtime to collect it.
Although the other side has said that the things will be delivered in the shortest possible time, Xiji is still a little worried about the progress.After all, according to the traffic situation and labor situation of this era, he doesn't think this matter will be completed soon.
So, after struggling for a while, Xiji decided to go and see where the food was stored, then see how much food was there, and figure out whether he needed to buy it or not.
It's just that Xiji didn't expect that he greatly underestimated the food storage situation of the Night King here.Looking at the grain in dozens of large granaries in front of him, and thinking about it, even if he only uses the grain in one granary to make wine, there will always be a lot of wine.
Xiji put his worries behind him, he was so stupid, he knew that the Night King had money, but he always thought they had stolen it.It never occurred to him that even if he didn't rob, the Night King would still be so rich.
At this time, Xiji was full of shock. After seeing the granary, he had a plan in his mind, so he took Lu Yin and the others back.
"My lord, what's the matter with you?" On the way back, seeing Xiji's uninterested expression, Lu Yin couldn't help asking.
Thinking of the problem he was struggling with just now, Xiji still couldn't help asking, "Since your lord is so rich, why do you need to go out to fight and raise soldiers by fighting?"
Listening to Xiji's question, Lu Yin said in a strange way: "Of course it's not just for stealing money. By the way, it's also for training those soldiers. My lord has said before that a soldier who hasn't seen blood is not a good soldier."
Hearing this, Xiji felt that she was superficial, and could only see the superficial things, but did not see the deeper things of this behavior.
So, I sighed, stopped thinking about it, and prepared to go back and write my own plan.
When the Night King came back at night, Xiji still honestly told the story of his visit to the granary today, and expressed his admiration for so many granaries during this period.
Unexpectedly, the Night King just responded lightly, and there was no other reaction. Xiji felt strange, turned to look at him, and seeing his calm look, couldn't help asking: "My lord, don't you?" Should I say something?"
The Night King paused while pouring tea for himself, then turned his head to look at Xiji, and asked casually, "What do you want me to say?"
Xiji was a little embarrassed by his question, and said in a low voice: "Shouldn't you say that these are just the tip of the iceberg of your wealth, so there's no need to make such a fuss?"
Xiji's words made the Night King laugh. The Night King turned his head to look at Xiji, squeezed his face, and said with a smile, "You are getting more lively every day."
This time, Xiji was even more embarrassed. When he first came here, he was horribly suppressed by the Night King, so naturally he didn't dare to be presumptuous easily.But later, not only did he find that the Night King treated him better and better, but his life became more and more comfortable.Little by little, those hidden tempers emerged, and he couldn't do anything about it.
But now that I think about it, have I become more and more presumptuous? This is a very bad phenomenon, which shows that my wariness of the Night King is getting smaller and smaller.If something unexpected happened to their relationship one day, wouldn't it be very dangerous if he was still so unscrupulous?
The Night King looked at Xiji's constantly changing expression, although he could see the entanglement on his face, he didn't know what he was thinking, so he asked bluntly, "What are you thinking?"
Xiji shook his head, indicating that he didn't think about anything.But he made up his mind in his heart that he would not change his mind if he was not really sure that the Night King liked him. He still needed to restrain his behavior as much as possible, not to go too far.
The Night King over there stared at his face for a long time in disbelief, and finally looked away when he seemed to be sure that he was really not thinking about anything messy.Then he said casually: "There will be a temple fair in a few days, I can take you out to have fun."
Hearing about the temple fair, Xiji's eyes lit up. He also participated in temple fairs in modern times, but most of those temple fairs still had commercial components.I don’t know what the temple fairs in this era look like?Will it be selling things from start to finish?
Seemingly understanding what Xiji was thinking, the Night King quickly resolved Xiji's doubts. This temple fair is the birthday of the Bodhisattva in the sky, so this day is a day for believers to go to the temple to pray and relax.
Hearing this, Xiji was taken aback, and murmured, "Is it the biggest temple on the edge of the night city?"
Ye Wang nodded, and then explained: "Yes, because the temple there is the largest, it is usually the busiest place every year, and the incense is also the most prosperous, although they also say that it is the most spiritual."
Speaking of this, the corner of the Night King's mouth revealed a mocking look, as if he disdained this statement.Then he took Xiji's hand and started playing.
After hearing this, Xiji was a bit stunned, and then murmured: "I also want to go there to pray for us, and just go there to see the ever-burning lamp of Moshu."
When he heard this name that seemed to have been in his memory for a long time, the Night King froze for a moment, as if he couldn't remember where he had heard this name before.But then, he nodded quickly and said indifferently: "OK."
After talking about going out to play in the house in a few days, Xiji brought the topic to what he was about to do, and looked at the Night King with some embarrassment: "My lord, the utensils over there are almost ready. The food has been prepared long ago, and with the jelly fruits coming soon, we can start making alcohol soon."
The Night King responded softly, as if he was not very interested, but quickly raised his head, stared straight into Xiji's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "This work is too tiring, let others do it. "
After Xiji said to make this thing, the Night King not only understood the usefulness of this thing, but even learned about the production process of this thing.When he knew that the production steps of this thing were so troublesome and time-consuming, the Night King made it clear that Xiji was not allowed to do it himself.
He can allow Xiji to develop some hobbies he likes within his controllable range, but he does not allow Xiji to overwork himself because of doing those boring things.
Xiji naturally remembers the agreement between him and the Night King, and also knows that in his current situation, it is impossible to play by himself. The only reliable way is to find a reliable person, give advice by himself, and then he will do it by himself. You can have as much leisure as you can.
It's just that this person is not so easy to find, so Xiji also became worried, took the hand of the Night King who had been playing with his fingers with his backhand, clasped his big palm, and said in embarrassment: "I remember what I promised you , What bothers me now is how do I find someone who is obedient, clever, and very sensitive to temperature to help me."
Regarding Siji's little trouble, the Night King showed no concern, interlocked his hand with Siji's ten fingers, wrapped his hand in his own hand, and said lightly: "Tell me the characteristics of the person you need. Mr. Guo, he will take care of it for you."
When Xiji heard the words, his eyes lit up. That's right, why did he forget that Mr. Guo who can't do anything.
Thinking that he was really busy and confused these days, Xiji patted his forehead, looked at the Night King and said sincerely: "My lord, you are so smart."
The Night King nodded invisibly, accepting his compliment.
The next day, Xiji took Lu Yin and the others to find Mr. Guo, and after Mr. Guo politely accepted the task, he walked back to the yard slowly, ready to start the next step of the plan.
It's just that when he was about to calculate how many bottles of liquor he had to prepare this time, and how many small jars of alcohol, Lu Yin walked up to her, but didn't speak for a long time.
When Xiji realized something was wrong and looked up at her, her eyes were full of doubts, "Lu Yin, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Yin looked very embarrassed when she heard Xiji's words, but she didn't know what to do.
After that indifferent glance, Ye Wang turned his gaze to Xiji's face. He had never seen a flash of unwillingness on Cheng Dieyi's face because of his contempt.
The Night King stared at Siji's face that was a little more bloody than before, and his plain voice was a little more gentle, "How do you feel today?"
Xiji laughed and replied: "It's much better than yesterday, the doctor's medicine is very useful, I think I should be much better than expected."
"That's good." After saying this, the Night King stopped talking.
Xiji suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange. If it was normal, he and the Night King must have other things to say, but at this moment, looking at Cheng Dieyi standing beside him who seemed very nervous, he sighed silently.Whether it was intentional or not, Siki always felt that the Night King seemed to be deliberately cold.
In order not to let the atmosphere continue to be so embarrassing that it would be suffocating, Xiji had no choice but to stand up, looked at Ye Wang and said, "Miss Cheng is here to deliver ginseng soup to me today."
"Yeah." The Night King nodded, and said nothing more.The atmosphere in the room fell into silence once again.
Siki: ...
what can he doHe is also very embarrassing!
Just when Xiji was at a loss and didn't know what to do, Cheng Dieyi saw something and bit his lip.First, he took a look at Ye Wang, who sat down there and drank tea, and stopped looking at himself, then turned his head to look at Xiji, and said apologetically, "My lord, Mr. Xi, it's getting late." , I have to go back to eat with my aunt."
Seeing this, Xiji knew that it was because of the attitude of the Night King that she wanted to leave early, so she forced a smile and nodded her head as a tacit consent.
Seeing that Xiji had no objection, Cheng Dieyi turned his head and saluted in the direction of the King of the Night, and then left with the maid beside him.After stepping out of the gate of the yard, he clenched the cloth towel in his hand, with a bit of resentment on his face.When he was in the house just now, the Night King never looked at him from the beginning to the end.
It's just that he quickly thought of his aunt's advice, and suppressed this resentment again.Forget it, the future is long, as long as he still has a chance to become the Night King, it is not a big deal if he is wronged now.Thinking of this, Cheng Dieyi's signature gentle smile appeared on his face again.
After Cheng Dieyi left, Xiji turned his head to look at the Night King who was sitting there calmly, and asked a little strangely: "My lord, why did you come back so early today?"
Hearing Xiji's words, Ye Wang raised his eyelids, and seemed to feel that his words were a bit redundant, but he still patiently explained the reason why he came back so early, "The filial piety from below is here, I think it's still early , I want to take you to have a look, if you think it is suitable, I will stay in the yard."
Hearing this, Xiji immediately understood what the Night King meant, that he had to choose first and choose well.Knowing this, Xiji naturally couldn't disappoint his kindness, and immediately showed him a happy smile, "Thank you, sir!"
"Yeah." The Night King looked at the sincere thanks on Siji's face, and the look of stars in those eyes looking at him, turned his head a little uncomfortable, and did not look at him.
Although Xiji looked at the Night King a little strangely, but the sensible person didn't ask any more questions, but instead asked happily: "My lord, shall we go there now?"
"Well. Those things are now in the outer courtyard. After you finish choosing, there will be special people to clean them up." The Night King said lightly. In fact, according to the usual practice, these things will be put into the warehouse as soon as they arrive in the mansion, and then the housekeeper will Pick the best ones for him to enjoy.
But when the housekeeper asked him as usual today if he put all those things into the warehouse as usual, he didn't know why he suddenly thought of Xiji.That brother sometimes seems to like something different from others.So, he thought of letting Xiji choose by himself, and naturally he came up with the one in front of him.
After listening to the Night King's narration, Xiji naturally understood that it was the Night King's order to do this.Therefore, after knowing that I can see what other people's tributes are, and even choose by myself, the smile on my face grows bigger.The rainbow fart also seemed to be free of money, and it was broadcast towards the Night King who did not want money, "My lord, you are so kind, you always think of me for all good things, and I have never seen a person who is more generous than you."
Hearing Xiji's series of good words, the Night King put his hand on his lips, coughed pretendingly, and said in a serious manner: "Okay, stop talking, let's go there now. There are a lot of things there, wait After you make your selection, it will probably take some time."
"En." Xiji didn't delay, and wanted to walk outside after hearing the words.He only took two steps, and seemed to think of something, turned back, held the hand of the Night King, and said calmly: "My lord, let's go."
The Night King looked at Xiji, who was walking in front, looking excited, and then at the hand he was holding, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
When the two of them arrived at the place where the goods were piled up in the outer courtyard, Xiji realized that what the Night King said was not a joke. The things piled up here can be added up to open a large grocery store.
Compared with Xiji, who was quite surprised, Night King was already used to it.Although he had never seen these things piled up before, the territory he ruled was not small, and he could guess how many things were sent below.
Seeing Xiji standing there blankly, as if he didn't know where to start, Ye Wang raised his chin slightly, and said contemptuously: "Anyway, these things will belong to the mansion from now on. It doesn't matter if you don't finish reading today." , we can continue watching tomorrow."
Hearing this, Xiji came back to his senses completely, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly as he thought about it.They didn't come to inspect the territory, so they didn't need to be so careful.It's just that the words of the Night King also reminded him that they will use these things in the future anyway, and now he only needs to choose the things he is interested in.
So Xiji, who had no psychological burden, happily walked into the pile of things and picked out the things he was interested in, looking like a happy mouse that fell into a rice bowl.
Seeing that Xiji couldn't finish choosing for a while, the Night King didn't intend to go back early, but stood by and waited for him.
Soon, a winking servant brought chairs and tea and snacks.
The Night King was very satisfied with this servant's behavior, nodded his head for the first time, and said, "Well done."
After saying these words, the Night King cast his eyes on Xiji who was happily picking things over there, and did not see the servant next to him at all, who was very happy after hearing that this was not a compliment.
Xiji feels that the things here are much richer than he imagined. Not only are there rare wild game, jewelry, and silk satins, but there are also some weird things that the people below find interesting, even those people I don't know for what purpose, I also wrote a manual about that thing next to it.
Whenever Xiji encounters something he has never seen before or is interested in, he will stop by the side, thinking about whether he needs such a thing.If it is needed, a label will be posted next to it, and the manager will carry it to his yard later.
Just after Xiji picked a lot of ingredients and some seasonings, Xiji suddenly found a strange box, which looked gaudy and had no similarity with the simple and unusual things next to it.
This distinctive box immediately aroused Xiji's interest. He immediately walked over and opened it, only to find that the contents inside were different from what he had imagined.There are only a few fruits and a small clay bottle inside.
Siki:? ? ?
But soon, Xiji was attracted by the seal of the pottery bottle. He was surprised to find that it was not cloth or cork, but something similar to a modern plastic cover.
Xiji thought he had read it wrong, so he immediately picked up the small bottle, took off the cap, and looked through it carefully. Except that it was softer than the modern bottle cap, it was completely Plastic bottle caps!
Xiji immediately became excited. He was still worrying about how to store the produced alcohol, but he didn't expect someone to send a pillow when he fell asleep.At the moment, he didn't care about other things, picked up the gaudy box, trotted all the way to the side of the Night King, and asked excitedly: "My lord, can you help me ask, where did this come from?"
The Night King looked at Xiji's excitement, as if seeing a puppy with fleshy bones, he was so happy that he almost wagged his tail.So, he put down the tea in his hand, looked at Xiji and asked inexplicably: "What's the matter? What's so strange about this thing?"
Xiji immediately talked about the difficulty of storing alcohol and the magical effect of this thing.After hearing this, the Night King's eyes, which he didn't care about before, became a little more cautious. He looked at the eager Xiji and said with relief: "Don't worry, since this thing is so useful, I'll call someone later to contact you. Pay tribute to the place where this thing came up, and let them collect more of these fruits for your use."
With the night king's promise, Xiji didn't panic anymore, put the things down, looked at the night king with a sweet smile and said, "Thank you, my lord."
The Night King was dazed by Xiji's smile, quickly looked away, and continued in a blunt tone: "In this case, you should put the things here first, and then go to see if there is anything in there." You still need it."
"Yeah." Xiji nodded heavily, and didn't worry about the Night King who suddenly seemed a little uncomfortable. After putting down the things, he happily ran back to those things and looked through them carefully.
Because of the big discovery just now, Xiji searched more carefully than before, but to his disappointment, he found nothing useful except for the thing just now.Siki sighed silently, and then harvested a bunch of unusual ingredients.
Seeing Xiji seriously lowering his head and choosing what he wanted, the Night King beckoned to the servants around him to come over.That servant was also clever, and without waiting for the Night King to speak, he said directly, "My lord, what do you want to order?"
The Night King handed over the things in his hand, without even taking his eyes off Siji, he casually ordered: "Go and ask where it was sent."
"Yes." The servant took the thing from the Night King's hand very respectfully, and then took the thing towards the butler at a speed never seen in his life.It would be a good thing if he became acquainted with the Night King because of this matter.Thinking of this, his pace became more and more brisk.
After the man left, Xiji had almost finished the selection. Although he didn't find another magical thing like that fruit, it was good to have that fruit, and Xiji was not greedy.Glancing at the sky, he felt that it was almost time for dinner, so he returned to Night King's side, and smiled at him embarrassedly: "My lord, I accidentally forgot the time, shall we go back to eat?"
The Night King didn't move. Instead, he looked at the things behind Xiji and asked as if describing: "Why didn't you choose some fabrics to make clothes? Those are all high-quality silk."
Hearing what the Night King said, Xiji felt a little embarrassed. He is not a woman, so naturally he doesn't like to dress up very much.Besides, the pile of clothes that the Night King made for him last time, he hasn't worn them a few times, so he doesn't need to buy new clothes.
So, he looked at the Night King and shook his head, and said with some embarrassment: "I haven't worn the clothes my lord made for me last time, so I don't need to make them again."
The Night King looked at Xiji's little face that was slightly flushed because of this exercise, and then looked at the piles of fabrics and furs not far away, and said in a deep voice: "I saw the things sent this time. There are fine furs, and I will ask someone to make some cloaks for you, so as not to catch cold when you go out."
Seeing that the Night King's words had reached this point, Xiji didn't continue to decline, but just looked at the Night King, and the smile on his face grew bigger.
The Night King looked at Sigina's smile, his eyes darkened.
……
"Did you meet an adult yesterday?" Fu Jinlian asked casually as she looked at her niece who was buried in her food, but stopped from time to time as if she was thinking about something.
When Cheng Dieyi saw that his aunt had asked, he didn't intend to hide it, so he put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand.Then I looked at my aunt, seemed a little confused, and said a little annoyed: "Auntie, I don't know if it's my illusion, I always feel that adults don't like me. Every time I meet adults, he just ignores me Yes. I don’t know if adults can still notice me if I continue like this.”
When Fu Jinlian heard what she said, she knew that she was being stupid again, so she quickly grabbed one of her hands, patted it lightly, and comforted her: "When have you ever seen the King of the Night be kind to others?"
Hearing the aunt's question, although Cheng Dieyi was unwilling, a figure of a person immediately appeared in his mind, watching his aunt half complaining and half dissatisfied, and said: "But my lord treats Mr. Xi very much." OK!"
Fu Jinlian was taken aback when she heard the words, she also knew that what her niece said was right, but she couldn't find words to refute it for a while.But soon, she adjusted her mentality, looked at Cheng Dieyi and said affirmatively:
"That's because his face is so outstanding. Your aunt and I have grown up so much, and I have never seen a brother who looks better than Mr. Naxi. If there is one, it is only me." My younger brother who died a long time ago is comparable. But if it is really necessary to compare, my younger brother is also inferior to him by three points."
Seeing that Xiji was so favored, and hearing his aunt say the same, Cheng Dieyi became more and more jealous.
Seeing her like this, Fu Jinlian knew that she was wrong, so she raised her head with her fingertips, stared at her face, and said seriously: "But you have to know that his face can arouse a man's desire. But your face is not bad. Do you know how pitiful those men will be when they see you with such a pitiful expression? You have to know that under normal circumstances, only a woman who can make men love her can live a good life. "
Cheng Dieyi's slight dissatisfaction just now was dispersed by Fu Jinlian's few words. At this time, the light in her aunt's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Seeing her like this, Fu Jinlian became more and more satisfied. Finally, this child was no longer that little girl who didn't know the world.She stroked her face, as if recalling it, and said as if sighing: "Now that you understand, you should make good use of your face in the future."
"En." At this moment, Cheng Dieyi nodded very simply.But soon, she remembered the question she wanted to ask at the beginning, looked at Fu Jinlian and asked seriously: "Auntie, I think the Night King really doesn't like it. In fact, it's not that he doesn't like it, he just raised him at will. A plant in my own yard. I don't pay attention to it, and I don't like or dislike it. If this continues, how can I make him pay attention to me?"
Hearing this, Fu Jinlian lowered her head and thought for a while, just as she was about to raise her head to say something to her niece, there was a servant girl's announcement from outside the door.
"Auntie, Miss Chen, the housekeeper has delivered something."
Both of them were startled, and they looked at each other, and they both saw some doubts in each other's eyes.Immediately, he did not continue the conversation, but stood up and walked out.
The two were a little surprised until they saw the pile of things piled up in the yard.There are piles of things there, including brocades, ingredients, and a few strange things.
It was Fu Jinlian who was the first to react, and came to the servant who came to give the gift, and asked politely: "Excuse me, what are these things?"
"Auntie is too polite." Seeing Fu Jinlian being so polite, the servant said with trepidation: "These things are filial piety to the adults from below, because this year my aunt is here, so the housekeeper will share a share with my aunt as well. I hope my aunt will not be disgusted."
Hearing his words, another amiable smile appeared on Fu Jinlian's face. Looking at the servant who came to give the gift, she said kindly: "It's too late for me to be so disgusted. I was originally at my husband's house. The monthly case received is less than one-third of this. I have to thank the Night King, who still remembers me as an old woman."
Hearing Fu Jinlian's words, the servants couldn't help but murmur in their hearts, in fact, it was Ye Wangji who cared about them, obviously it was the housekeeper who did things properly.In the past, there was only the Night King as the master in this mansion, so no one objected to the fact that all the good things belonged to the Night King.
It's just this year, whether it's Mr. Xi who seems to be very favored, or the aunt and grandma who have obviously come to defect.How to allocate is a problem. When I asked Ye Wang for his opinion, I got a sentence from Young Master Xi to let him choose the best one.It is clear at a glance which is more important.
However, it's not his turn to be an errand runner to make irresponsible remarks about these things.Looking at the aunt who seemed to be moved to tears and was wiping the corners of her eyes with a towel at this time, he politely said goodbye, "Auntie, since you have accepted the things, it is up to my aunt how to deal with them afterwards." Make the decision. The younger one has to do other things ordered by the housekeeper, so I will leave first."
"Thanks for your hard work." Fu Jinlian said while asking the maid who followed her to give them money.
The man took the reward, thanked Fu Jinlian and the others several times, and left quickly.
After the person left, the two walked around the pile of things, and found that the things inside were all unusual and rare.Their faces couldn't help showing a bit of joy, because they had already planned to save food and money because they were dependent on others.I didn't expect the Night King to be so generous, and he must still be thinking about them.
Therefore, Fu Jinlian, who thought she still had some status in the heart of the Night King, immediately ordered the maid behind her, "Put these categories away."
"Yes."
……
"My lord, eat and have a look. I saw that there was actually a jar of honey in it. I thought I hadn't eaten a cake for a long time, so I made one. You can try it to see if it suits your taste." Xiji happily held the one on hand. Cut a piece of the cake, put it in a special bowl, and handed it to the Night King.
When Ye Wang received the cake, he naturally ate it unceremoniously, but the portion that was originally enough for Xiji to eat more than a dozen mouthfuls was eaten by Ye Wang in just a few mouthfuls.After finishing eating, he said rather flatly, "Shang Ke, this thing is a bit too sweet."
Hearing what the Night King said, Xiji kept smiling. He felt that if the Night King didn't eat so fast, it might be more convincing.
……
Because of the things that King Ye sent, Cheng Dieyi and Fu Jinlian thought they had some face in front of King Ye.Therefore, they became more and more confident, and it became easier to even summon the servants assigned to them.
Cheng Dieyi took the clothes that she had accidentally soiled in her hands, and walked along the wall towards the backyard. She remembered that there was a well there, and she wanted to wash it by herself.
Unexpectedly, as they passed a corner, they heard low voices talking in front, Cheng Dieyi seemed to be still hearing his name inside.Seeing a servant girl gossiping behind her back and using herself as the main character, Cheng Dieyi became furious, and just about to go over and teach them a lesson, when they changed the subject,
"Do you think the Night King is interested in Miss Cheng? Otherwise, why would he send so many things?"
"Yes, do you know what a lot is? The things sent over are just a drop in the bucket of those tributes."
"No, no?"
"I have a sister who works in the yard of Mr. Xi. It is said that when these things arrived that day, the adults took you to pick them out. Later, the fabrics for making clothes for you are comparable to the piles sent over. .”
"Oh my god, my lord really dotes on Mr. Xi."
"That is, I heard that there is nothing in his room that is ordinary, and everything is priceless."
"I've heard that too, and I've also heard that Mr. Xi is a very nice person."
"Yes, but what's the matter, even if Mr. Xi is a good person, it's not our turn to serve you."
Hearing this, Cheng Dieyi realized how ridiculous it was to be self-satisfied this day. He obviously picked up what was left by others, but he was still so happy.And listening to the maid's tone, it is clear that serving them is a hard job.All of these are because they are not favored.
Just when Cheng Dieyi hated her teeth and wanted to go out and teach them a lesson, the two maids changed the subject again, and changed the subject:
"But I think that Miss Cheng may not always be like this."
"How do you say that?"
"I'll tell you, don't talk nonsense!"
"Of course."
Cheng Dieyi held her breath, nervously waiting for the next words, as if realizing that the next words might bring her a great turning point.
"Isn't Mr. Xi deeply loved by adults? I heard from my sisters who were there that they are almost inseparable, and they have done that kind of thing. But until now, your stomach still hasn't moved in the slightest."
"You mean?"
"I didn't say anything. I just think that if Mr. Xi has been like this, and our Miss Cheng finds a chance to have an affair with King Ye, then you think her status will not rise with the tide?"
"Wow, you're right."
"Of course I'm right."
"Then do you know when Miss Cheng will be able to take over?"
"How do I know? It depends on her ability. After all, her purpose is so obvious, and my lord is not a man who can easily handle it."
When Cheng Dieyi heard that she was pregnant and had a child, the mother was more expensive than the child, so she couldn't listen anymore.His heart was beating wildly, as if something was about to come out.
She couldn't listen to anything else, grabbed the clothes in her hand, and walked back along the way she came.
"That's right, child. If Xiji has been unable to give birth to a child, it is impossible for the Night King to guard him all the time."
……
Not long after Xiji's drawings were sent, the master over there sent someone to say that the utensils he wanted would be ready in three days, and he should be reported in advance.
After hearing the news, Xiji was surprised at their speed, while considering whether to start preparing materials from now on.Thinking of the news from the Night King, Xiji felt a little tangled. How much material did he need to prepare this time? If he prepared it in advance, what would happen if the jelly fruit over there was not ready?
Yes, jelly fruit is the thing he discovered last time that looks like plastic but is softer than plastic.It was something from a small county that was only a day's journey away from Yecheng. The county magistrate brought it up at the beginning because their county was not very rich and couldn't produce anything decent.When someone proposed to present this kind of fruit that can be used to seal the bottle and does not agree with air leakage, the county magistrate sent it up like a living horse doctor.
What he didn't expect was that the things he sent up inadvertently actually played a great role, and even made the Night King notice him.Even when he received the task list from the Night King asking him to collect all the fruits, he couldn't believe his eyes.
Because he would actually receive a letter written by the Night King himself one day.Then, he promised the Night King that he would deliver the collected jelly as soon as possible, and at the same time sent people to work overtime to collect it.
Although the other side has said that the things will be delivered in the shortest possible time, Xiji is still a little worried about the progress.After all, according to the traffic situation and labor situation of this era, he doesn't think this matter will be completed soon.
So, after struggling for a while, Xiji decided to go and see where the food was stored, then see how much food was there, and figure out whether he needed to buy it or not.
It's just that Xiji didn't expect that he greatly underestimated the food storage situation of the Night King here.Looking at the grain in dozens of large granaries in front of him, and thinking about it, even if he only uses the grain in one granary to make wine, there will always be a lot of wine.
Xiji put his worries behind him, he was so stupid, he knew that the Night King had money, but he always thought they had stolen it.It never occurred to him that even if he didn't rob, the Night King would still be so rich.
At this time, Xiji was full of shock. After seeing the granary, he had a plan in his mind, so he took Lu Yin and the others back.
"My lord, what's the matter with you?" On the way back, seeing Xiji's uninterested expression, Lu Yin couldn't help asking.
Thinking of the problem he was struggling with just now, Xiji still couldn't help asking, "Since your lord is so rich, why do you need to go out to fight and raise soldiers by fighting?"
Listening to Xiji's question, Lu Yin said in a strange way: "Of course it's not just for stealing money. By the way, it's also for training those soldiers. My lord has said before that a soldier who hasn't seen blood is not a good soldier."
Hearing this, Xiji felt that she was superficial, and could only see the superficial things, but did not see the deeper things of this behavior.
So, I sighed, stopped thinking about it, and prepared to go back and write my own plan.
When the Night King came back at night, Xiji still honestly told the story of his visit to the granary today, and expressed his admiration for so many granaries during this period.
Unexpectedly, the Night King just responded lightly, and there was no other reaction. Xiji felt strange, turned to look at him, and seeing his calm look, couldn't help asking: "My lord, don't you?" Should I say something?"
The Night King paused while pouring tea for himself, then turned his head to look at Xiji, and asked casually, "What do you want me to say?"
Xiji was a little embarrassed by his question, and said in a low voice: "Shouldn't you say that these are just the tip of the iceberg of your wealth, so there's no need to make such a fuss?"
Xiji's words made the Night King laugh. The Night King turned his head to look at Xiji, squeezed his face, and said with a smile, "You are getting more lively every day."
This time, Xiji was even more embarrassed. When he first came here, he was horribly suppressed by the Night King, so naturally he didn't dare to be presumptuous easily.But later, not only did he find that the Night King treated him better and better, but his life became more and more comfortable.Little by little, those hidden tempers emerged, and he couldn't do anything about it.
But now that I think about it, have I become more and more presumptuous? This is a very bad phenomenon, which shows that my wariness of the Night King is getting smaller and smaller.If something unexpected happened to their relationship one day, wouldn't it be very dangerous if he was still so unscrupulous?
The Night King looked at Xiji's constantly changing expression, although he could see the entanglement on his face, he didn't know what he was thinking, so he asked bluntly, "What are you thinking?"
Xiji shook his head, indicating that he didn't think about anything.But he made up his mind in his heart that he would not change his mind if he was not really sure that the Night King liked him. He still needed to restrain his behavior as much as possible, not to go too far.
The Night King over there stared at his face for a long time in disbelief, and finally looked away when he seemed to be sure that he was really not thinking about anything messy.Then he said casually: "There will be a temple fair in a few days, I can take you out to have fun."
Hearing about the temple fair, Xiji's eyes lit up. He also participated in temple fairs in modern times, but most of those temple fairs still had commercial components.I don’t know what the temple fairs in this era look like?Will it be selling things from start to finish?
Seemingly understanding what Xiji was thinking, the Night King quickly resolved Xiji's doubts. This temple fair is the birthday of the Bodhisattva in the sky, so this day is a day for believers to go to the temple to pray and relax.
Hearing this, Xiji was taken aback, and murmured, "Is it the biggest temple on the edge of the night city?"
Ye Wang nodded, and then explained: "Yes, because the temple there is the largest, it is usually the busiest place every year, and the incense is also the most prosperous, although they also say that it is the most spiritual."
Speaking of this, the corner of the Night King's mouth revealed a mocking look, as if he disdained this statement.Then he took Xiji's hand and started playing.
After hearing this, Xiji was a bit stunned, and then murmured: "I also want to go there to pray for us, and just go there to see the ever-burning lamp of Moshu."
When he heard this name that seemed to have been in his memory for a long time, the Night King froze for a moment, as if he couldn't remember where he had heard this name before.But then, he nodded quickly and said indifferently: "OK."
After talking about going out to play in the house in a few days, Xiji brought the topic to what he was about to do, and looked at the Night King with some embarrassment: "My lord, the utensils over there are almost ready. The food has been prepared long ago, and with the jelly fruits coming soon, we can start making alcohol soon."
The Night King responded softly, as if he was not very interested, but quickly raised his head, stared straight into Xiji's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "This work is too tiring, let others do it. "
After Xiji said to make this thing, the Night King not only understood the usefulness of this thing, but even learned about the production process of this thing.When he knew that the production steps of this thing were so troublesome and time-consuming, the Night King made it clear that Xiji was not allowed to do it himself.
He can allow Xiji to develop some hobbies he likes within his controllable range, but he does not allow Xiji to overwork himself because of doing those boring things.
Xiji naturally remembers the agreement between him and the Night King, and also knows that in his current situation, it is impossible to play by himself. The only reliable way is to find a reliable person, give advice by himself, and then he will do it by himself. You can have as much leisure as you can.
It's just that this person is not so easy to find, so Xiji also became worried, took the hand of the Night King who had been playing with his fingers with his backhand, clasped his big palm, and said in embarrassment: "I remember what I promised you , What bothers me now is how do I find someone who is obedient, clever, and very sensitive to temperature to help me."
Regarding Siji's little trouble, the Night King showed no concern, interlocked his hand with Siji's ten fingers, wrapped his hand in his own hand, and said lightly: "Tell me the characteristics of the person you need. Mr. Guo, he will take care of it for you."
When Xiji heard the words, his eyes lit up. That's right, why did he forget that Mr. Guo who can't do anything.
Thinking that he was really busy and confused these days, Xiji patted his forehead, looked at the Night King and said sincerely: "My lord, you are so smart."
The Night King nodded invisibly, accepting his compliment.
The next day, Xiji took Lu Yin and the others to find Mr. Guo, and after Mr. Guo politely accepted the task, he walked back to the yard slowly, ready to start the next step of the plan.
It's just that when he was about to calculate how many bottles of liquor he had to prepare this time, and how many small jars of alcohol, Lu Yin walked up to her, but didn't speak for a long time.
When Xiji realized something was wrong and looked up at her, her eyes were full of doubts, "Lu Yin, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Yin looked very embarrassed when she heard Xiji's words, but she didn't know what to do.
