C87 (1/2)
Qian Linxi walked in front, pouting his lips, frowning. He was obviously unhappy. He didn't ask if he should take this route and charged forward.
”Xi Er, you went wrong. Turn left.”
Sun Jinzi laughed as she reminded her. Looking at Qian Linxi who was in front of him, he stopped and turned left. He could only sigh slightly. This girl was slightly stronger than him. At the very least, she was still rational. At that time, he was the only one who would not listen to anyone's words. That was the only one who was satisfied.
Today, Ji Zi did not go out. When Qian Linxi went in, he was puzzled, but after seeing Sun Jinzi, he knew who this angry little girl was with.
”Master.”
Ji Zi nodded his head, he was still sitting on the rattan chair in the courtyard, basking in the sun, with a purple clay teapot in his right hand, and occasionally drinking a mouthful of water.
His gaze wandered around Sun Jinzi's body, seeing the bulging cloak, he knew that she was still a little afraid of him, and sighed helplessly.
”Little girl, what are you doing here?”
Sun Jinzi looked troubled, she did not know how to start a conversation, but she felt that her grandmother came here for another reason. As such, it wasn't very pleasant for her to see her master.
”old man, my grandma specially came here. Thank you for saving my aunt.”
”Xi Er, don't be rude.”
Qian Linxi's mouth was still filled with the smell of gunpowder, causing him to feel somewhat unhappy. Qian Linxi's expression flickered, and his pupils contracted slightly, yet he did not speak a single word of admitting defeat.
”Don't worry about it. She should have a bit of bearing.”
Ji Zi stroked his beard, and sat up straight, placing the purple sand teapot on the stone table.
”You should have informed me about Zi Er earlier. I haven't even prepared anything in return.”
Sun Jinzi was afraid that Ji Zi would be unhappy, but seeing his smiling face, he finally relaxed a little.
”Master, you don't need to prepare any gifts. Any one of these flowers and plants in your yard is a treasure!”
”So it turns out that you have been coveting my flowers and grasses for a long time.” ”He really has no conscience!”
Seeing that his disciple was happy, Ji Zi also stroked his beard and pretended to blow it. However, Sun Jinzi was not afraid of him, she only laughed, and scanned around the courtyard, but did not see Qing Xiu.
”Master, where's Qing Xiu?”
”I sent that kid out to deliver medicine. He should be back soon.”
Sun Jinzi nodded, in her heart she felt that this Gao Qingxiu would probably need to wait a long time before she would return.
When Mu Tan saw Master Ji Zi in the courtyard, she had gone to call for Liushi and the Qian's disease. Ji Zi also hurriedly got up. All these years, he knew that Sun Jinzi's parents were safe, but due to the situation they were in in in Sun Mansion, he did not pay them a visit.
”Ji Zi, Master, we will be troubling you.”
Liushi reckoned that when she just reached the door, the smiling voice suddenly came over. Following that, a dignified and graceful old lady appeared at the door. It was obvious that this person was the grandmother that the little girl spoke of.
”Old Mistress Qian is too polite.”
Ji Zi cupped his fists, and swept over Liushi and her body. ”Why are you being so courteous, coming here is enough, and giving so many gifts, Ji Zi feels guilty.”
”They are just some insignificant things, how can they thank Master Ji Zi for saving their lives?”
The Liushi made a signal with her eyes, and Sun Jinzi brought the servants inside the room to deliver the gifts.
Ji Zi did not reject and immediately let them enter the house. Liushi and Qian's disease sat on a cushion while kneeling, while Sun Jinzi and a few other juniors stood at the side.
”Zi Er, you aren't a stranger. Since Qingxiu is not here today, let's go and get some tea for everyone.”
”Xi Er, you should also go and help your cousin.”
Qian Linxi was still angry, but only responded with a sound. A trace of unhappiness flashed across Liushi's face, but he could only smile along.
”This girl, she wasn't like this before, where did she cause such a ruckus today?” Then Chuan Er, go ahead. Be careful not to let your cousin get burned. ”
Qian Linchuan replied, he looked strangely at Qian Linxi, then left his room and headed towards Sun Jinzi's direction.
At this moment, Sun Jinzi was just waiting for the water to boil, her eyes were glazed over, and he did not notice that Qian Linchuan was already standing next to her.
Seeing Sun Jinzi in such a state, Qian Linchuan only felt that it was funny. When she was young, they were always eating snacks, but she was always stunned when she saw him eating.
The water was boiling, and the crackling sound finally pulled Sun Jinzi back from her thoughts. She wanted to grab the teapot back, but someone snatched it away.
”Cousin Linchuan, why are you here?”
