92 Practice (2/2)
Jin Xian grasped my hands once more and expressed her gratitude, making me feel extremely smug. I was so pleased with her words, I even temporarily put down the”Erotic Arts” to accompany her through the courtyard.
”This is a daisy, it tastes really good. Over there is a peony, it doesn't taste very good…..” I tried my hardest to explain to the little sprite.
Jin Wen who had been beside us had turned pale, she grabbed me and asked, ”Was it you who trampled the garden the past few nights, pulling out large roots and the similar?”
Meow woo~ I lowered my head and grumbled, ”Cat's have to eat a bit of grass…..to ease the digestion process.”
”You…..you're not allowed eat the grass again!” Jin Wen was shaking with anger, ”There are a lot of precious grasses here! It's very hard to raise, and some are herbs I've grown for Immortal Mo'lin!”
Her anger should be because of the last sentence, right? I hastened to promise to never eat the grass here again. Jin Wen's anger had also subsided by now, she even pointed out to the places where I was allowed to take a bite from, and reminded me to wash before eating.
In the distance, Luo Luo and Jian Nan were holding watering buckets as they approached us. Seeing that there were some strangers, Luo Luo gave her greetings and then hid behind Jian Nan. Jian Nan walked forward with a smile and said, ”Lady Miao Miao, if you like to eat grass, I can help you grow some that are most suitable for cats. It's guaranteed to be tasty, and you won't have to make Miss Jin Wen angry.”
Jin Xian was covering her mouth laughing, making me feel a little embarassed, so I immediately changed the subject, ”Jin Xian, what do you normally like to do?”
”Ah?” Jin Xian abruptly turned her head around, and laughed, ”I like to do embroidery, play the qin, and recite poetry. My sister says these are all extremely boring.”
”Because you don't like going out, your health is bad.” Jin Wen said angrily.
”Yes, yes, yes, I will take in the words of big sis for future reference.” Jin Wen smiled.
Jin Wen turned around and said, ”When you have free time, come around here to play. I'm in charge of the kitchen and wedding banquet for the wedding, so come down and give us a helping hand.”
”Heehee, how can I say no when Jiejie asks.”
With a smile, the two said their goodbyes, saying that it was late and she needed to accompany Jin Xian home.
After they disappeared from sight, Luo Luo came out from behind Jian Nan and softly said, ”It seems…..a bit strange.”
”What is strange?” I was puzzled.
”That girl Jin Xian, doesn't she hate going out?” Luo Luo asked, ”Why is she wearing the boots of people who do martial arts?”
I gave an answer after thinking about it, ”Perhaps she likes it, soft leather boots are very comfortable for walking. Jumping around in it is also very convenient, I love wearing them.”
Jian Nan further explained, ”Maybe because of the distance of travel in order to facilitate to the long journey, don't dwell on this too much and just let it go.”
Luo Luo frowned and thought for a while, but eventually gave up and followed Jian Nan.
I suddenly thought of the ”Erotic Arts” manual and hurried to where Yin Zi was.
