Leisurely fairy way

Chapter 101 Jishun Ji Mansion
After arriving in Jishun Mansion, Xiaochun sold the carriage and walked on the road with Gaitian in her arms, while Xiaoyi still slept in her sleeve.

Jishun Prefecture is busier than Linchuan County. It is located in the south of the Yangtze River, rich in fish and rice, and the market is more diversified. There are also shops such as silk, cloth, jewelry and spices, incense, paper and horses. All walks of life are more prosperous. Hanging City Raise the banner, solicit business.The flow of people is shoulder to shoulder, men, women, old and young, of all kinds.There was an old man telling a book in the alley, Xiaochun stopped and listened for a while.

After walking not far away, I met a troupe singing on a high platform facing the street. Their faces were full of ink and colorful, and they sang "Fanli Flower". Unexpectedly, there was also "Fanli Flower". Sit on the stool and enjoy it slowly.

After listening to the play, she asked the township party where Jishun Jifu was, and then she went towards Jifu.Walking outside the gate of the Ji Mansion, looking at the stone lions and red lanterns at the gate, she still felt quite strange, and then thought that she had never entered or exited through the main gate.The original little girl had never been seen by her nominal father.

She closed her eyes, let out her consciousness to cover Jifu, then retracted her consciousness, and walked towards the backyard of Jifu.

"Aren't you going in?" Gai Tian asked her, "Where is this? We walked around hundreds of miles just to come here."

"If I go in through the main entrance, it will alarm the Patriarch of Ji's family." Xiaochun said lightly, "For the time being, I don't want to see him again, let's go in quietly through the back door."

There is no one with cultivation level in Jishunji Mansion, she only found out that there is only one monk with a cultivation level of qi refining level [-], which poses no threat to her.Xiaochun used the wind control technique to detour around the backyard and easily entered the house. She first went to the place where she and Chen Shan lived with Granny Liu, but she didn't find her. The small courtyard seemed to be deserted. Moss grew on the steps, dust and fallen leaves accumulated in the pots in the kitchen, and the kitchen knives were rusted.

Xiaochun walked slowly to the room where she and Chen Shan used to live, the quilts were folded, but it was cloudy and rainy, the tiles were leaking, but no one repaired them, and grass grew between the cracks on the ground.The entire small courtyard is also overgrown with weeds, and it looks like no one has lived in it for a long time.It was only then that Xiaochun realized that Granny Liu hadn't sold her body. She still had a home outside Ji's mansion, but she didn't know where it was.

Xiaochun finally looked at the small yard, and remembered that Chenshan had changed his teeth when he was a child, and threw them on the roof.She jumped up to the roof and searched around but couldn't find it, thinking what she was doing, she jumped off the roof again.Gai Tian waited for her to come down, and said: "Go quickly if you want to see anyone, this place is not fun at all, I can't stay here."

"As a monster, please be patient, learn more from Xiaoyi." Xiaochun pinched its ears and lifted it up, Gaitian barked unwillingly, how painful it was.She touched its tail, the hair hadn't grown well yet, luckily its skin was rough and fleshy, ordinary fire couldn't hurt it, it was also its own bad luck, insisted on putting its tail by the oven to keep it warm.

"Xiaoyi has been lied to by you all day long, don't think I don't know." Gaitian said, it is a smart and wise spirit beast, Xiaochun's curved intestines were not enough for it that day, it was not afraid of Xiaochun at all Yes, Lord Lian hasn't woken up recently, so no one suppressed it, and it almost jumped into the sky.

Xiaochun didn't bother to pay attention to its little proud thoughts. After beating a few bandits, it felt that it was powerful, and it would cry when it encountered powerful spirit beasts in the future.

Throwing Gai Tian into the spirit animal bag, she went to the kitchen and secretly found Xiaomi. She has changed a lot in the past four years, the biggest difference is that her hair is tied up and fixed with thorn hairpins.The figure is also plump than before, looking for Xiaomi to deliver food, she appeared in front of her, of course with her real face.Xiaomi was surprised for a long time before finally shouting in surprise.

"Xiaochun, why are you here? Where have you been all these years?"

Xiaochun said: "Listen to me, I came back secretly, don't tell anyone, you know?"

Xiaomi was stunned for a while, and then said: "...you have treated me kindly, and I will never forget it." Xiaochun walked with her and listened to her talk about what happened in these years.She finally married Fu Lu and gave birth to a child the year before last. Fu Lu was favored by Manager Xu and promoted to Deputy Manager.Granny Liu went out of the house to recuperate because of her advanced age. Before leaving, the third young master asked the manager to treat Granny Liu kindly, so she was given silver taels and oil and rice subsidies every month, and Xiaomi and Fulu often went to see her.

Xiaomi also said that Granny Liu had a serious illness last year, so she was not very flexible. The couple were afraid that she would be lonely and an old man and could not take care of themselves, so they brought her to live with her.Xiaochun listened to her and occasionally nodded in agreement.Xiaochun said: "You are free today, I want to go with you to see Granny Liu."

Xiaomi smiled and said: "Today, there are distinguished guests in the mansion. The kitchen is very busy. It may be late in the evening. Xiaochun, you have seen a fairy..." She said in a mysterious and low voice, "I tell you, today in Ji's mansion The distinguished guest here is an immortal, and he can ride the clouds and the fog!" Hearing what she said, Xiaochun thought of the monk at the fourth level of Qi refining that he had just investigated, and said with a slight smile, "It's quite strange." How the layer can soar through the clouds and ride the fog is just a mortal's wild speculation.

Xiaomi experienced a lot when she was young, and now she is a wife and mother. She has a very mature personality. Seeing Xiaochun's mysterious appearance, she didn't ask much.Although she is only three years older than Xiaochun, she looks ten years older. Xiaochun's temperament is different, and she doesn't know what to say. Even if Xiaochun didn't express any sense of alienation, she still felt that Xiaochun had A noble feeling, much more noble than those ladies.It seems that it is not right to use noble, anyway, it is different from them.

Xiaochun accompanied her to the kitchen door, and then waited for her at the back door.Gaitian was very dissatisfied, she closed it in the storage bag again, and wanted to come out, so she let him out, Xiaoyi poked his head out from her sleeve, there was a big forest behind, it hadn't climbed a tree for a long time It's gone, and I went to the top of the tree with joy. Xiaochun only saw a fluffy tail protruding from the crown of the tree with sparse leaves.

Gaitian said: "The stir-fried pine nuts you bought had hidden a lot that day, so they must have been hidden in them to eat."

Xiaochun said: "Don't say that, Xiaoyi's nature is to hide things." Thunderwing still has some squirrel habits. When autumn comes, it starts to store food.Xiaochun couldn't laugh or cry when she saw that Xiaoyi hid a lot of boiled peanuts in her sleeve, Xiaoyi used her sleeve as a nest.So she made a nest for Xiaoyi in Qinglian Jade and put it on a tree, and then it moved the things that were stored in Xiaochun's sleeves into the nest, fried pine nuts, boiled peanuts, preserved plums, and meat. of.

Xiaochun also asked why it didn't hide the meat. Xiaoyi said that the meat was too easy to rot, so Xiaochun dried some beef jerky for it and hung it on the tree. Gaitian always stole it when people were not paying attention.

Gaitian circled under the tree a few times and said, "Xiaochun, I'm hungry."

Xiaochun grabbed it and said, "You are a monster, don't cry all day long, if you are really hungry, go find something to eat yourself."

"Ji Xiaochun, you're unfair!" Gaitian said, "Ever since I got Xiaoyi, you've been abusing me. You don't give me food and drink, and you cooperate with it to bully me. When Master Lian wakes up, you can see how I'm suing you. go."

It's no wonder Master Lian would take care of it, Xiaochun raised his eyes and looked at the sky, it was gray.It was raining inside the Qinglian Jade, and she could feel it, the continuous cool rain, and the waves in the river, this feeling was very special, since Qinglian Jade had normal weather, maybe it would snow again in the future.

Counting the time when Xiaomi will come out soon, Xiaochun stuffs Gaitian into the spirit animal bag again, and puts Xiaoyi into Qinglianyu to collect his beef jerky, it will be wet by the rain and will stink.When Xiaomi came out, Fu Lu was still behind her, and Xiaochun also greeted Fu Lu. She and Fu Lu had a good relationship back then. Fu Lu was much fatter than before, and his eyes were a bit cloudy.

Xiaomi kept talking to Xiaochun, and Fulu walked behind them, through the woods to the market, where he prepared grass carp, some enemas, and a jug of wine.Xiaomi's home is not far from Jifu, just turn two alleys. The door of the small courtyard is half closed, and there is a dog barking. As soon as Xiaomi pushes the door open, Xiaochun sees a big dog, which is constantly yelling. Barking at her, Xiaochun secretly let out a trace of coercion, and the dog was immediately frightened and hid back in the den with its tail between its legs.

Fulu who had just entered the door saw this scene, his face changed, and he met Xiaochun who turned his head. Xiaochun smiled at him. good.It's a pity that Gaitian is not so well-behaved, it can't be frightened.

Xiaomi was also taken aback, and hurriedly pulled Xiaochun to let her sit down, saying that Granny Liu was in the room, and she went to help her out.

Xiaochun sat on a chair and watched Xiaomi come in. There are loofah vines planted in the yard, and chickens are kept in cages in the corner. They should be living a good life.Fulu went into the kitchen to prepare wine and dishes, and warmly invited Xiaochun to have a meal at his house. Xiaochun did not refuse. After a while, Xiaochun saw Xiaomi coming out with the help of Granny Liu, and she hurriedly got up to greet her.

Granny Liu was wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket, her hair was much grayer, her body was bent, and she had to be supported by Xiaomi to walk steadily.Xiaochun took Granny Liu's hand, but she didn't react. She didn't raise her head until Xiaochun called her. Her eyes were bad, and she couldn't see clearly what Xiaochun looked like.The trembling hand slowly stretched out and stuck to Xiaochun's cheek, tears overflowed from her eyes: "Xiaochun, you...you are back..."

Xiaochun suddenly felt that her heart was twisted. This old man grew up with her, but she and Chen Shan left her here to die alone. I don't know if Xiaomi treats her well, but she still looks good.

Xiaomi went to help in the kitchen and left her and Granny Liu in the hall. Xiaochun helped Granny Liu to sit on the chair. She half-kneeled on the ground and buried her head in her arms. Grandma is alone in modern times and no one will accompany her until she dies, and she will definitely blame herself.Granny Liu stroked her hair, and there was a faint smile on the old man's kind face.

Granny Liu treats her sincerely and doesn't covet her. It's just that the old man loves a child. No matter what the child goes through outside, no matter what she becomes, to her, Xiaochun is that Xiaochun, the child she brought up. .The child she had brought up was now back with her, and she felt her last wish had come true.

"Grandmother." Xiaochun took her warm and dry hand, looked up at her, Granny Liu still smiled, "How are you doing here, tell me the truth."

Granny Liu said: "It's good. Xiaomi is a kind person and takes good care of me, but sometimes she always misses you and Xiaoxia. How is that child now? Didn't he come back with you?"

Xiaochun thought for a while, and said, "He's busy there, so I'll come and see you." Xiaochun secretly scanned the back room with her spiritual sense, and found that Granny Liu's room was pretty good, at least not damp and cold.Xiaomi and Fulu whispered in the kitchen, but there was nothing wrong with it, it was just speculation at most.Xiaochun has nothing to be afraid of, so what if they told the Patriarch of the Ji family, she is now a monk at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and she doesn't think much of him as a mortal.

Xiaochun had dinner with Granny Liu, and also saw Xiaomi's child, a chubby boy, who was usually raised at the neighbor's house. If Xiaomi was busy in the kitchen and didn't come back on time, the neighbor would help Granny Liu's life. This is what Fu Lu told her.Xiaochun deliberately wanted to give the fat baby something, but after looking in the storage bag, there was nothing suitable, so he had to give up.

In the end, she waited for Granny Liu to wash and rest, and observed secretly. Although Fu Lu had a change of heart, she was still very good to Granny Liu, and she had nothing to worry about.In the end, she called Xiaomi aside, thought about it, and only gave her 50 taels of gold, not all of them, and 50 taels of gold was something Xiaomi had never seen before.

Xiaochun said: "Take this money as a thank you for taking care of Granny Liu, don't worry, if you continue to take good care of her, I will come back. By the way, you should take some of the gold and hide it, don't give it all to Fulu .”

"Why?" Xiaomi was a little confused.

Xiaochun sighed: "Silly girl, just listen to me, but don't tie your own way of life to others." After she handed the gold to Xiaomi, she said, "I'm leaving now, don't leave me alone." Me, mark my words."

"Xiaochun..." Xiaomi didn't finish, watching Xiaochun jump up the fence, and disappeared after a few jumps.Ji Xiaochun is already a completely different person from her, Xiaomi thought in a daze as she watched her disappear.

　The street market scene is taken from Qingming Riverside Scene. ... Well, I really don't know what to say, alas.
