The restraint on her mouth was removed, and Bai Zhi continued to explain: "I'm not trying to scrape gold from the Buddha, I'm... um..." Qiao Wanwan covered her mouth again and collapsed: "Auntie, I'm leaving now, you can talk after I leave."

Bai Zhi nodded very understandingly.

After seeing Qiao Wanwan off, Bai Zhi went back to her room, changed into clothes for going out, and planned to call the two children out. Before she reached the side room, she saw the two children sitting on the floor in front of the cucumber and vegetable patch at the entrance of the small kitchen, with Gu Yan sitting next to them. It was unknown what funny things he said, but the two children, who used to be afraid of him, laughed so hard that they fell backwards.

Bai Zhi paused, a little hesitant about whether to go over.

From the day she decided to stay, Gu Yan's behavior was very strange, to the point that it gave her goose bumps. First, he cleaned the house himself, even polished Mrs. Tao's urn, and even waxed the chairs, so bright that Baizhi didn't dare to sit on them. Then he carefully folded up the clothes that Baizhi had casually thrown on the hanger. One day, after Baizhi woke up, she went to the hanger to grab clothes but found nothing. The next moment, Gu Yan took out a coat and asked her if she wanted to wear it today. The most terrifying thing was that one night when she got up to go to the bathroom, she opened her eyes and saw Gu Yan leaning on the edge of the bed looking at her, his eyes wide open, like a ghost crawling out of the underworld. She almost kicked him.

Bai Zhi finally came to a conclusion yesterday morning after all these things happened - Gu Yan drank too much blood tonic medicine and his blood rushed to his head, so she didn't let him drink it anymore. But after stopping the medicine, the effect didn't go away for a while, Gu Yan was still like this, making Bai Zhi a little scared when she saw him now.

Seeing how happy Qiaoqiao and Lin Chuqi were, they knew they couldn't finish the gossip for a while, so Bai Zhi had no choice but to rub her palms and walked over with gritted teeth.

Thanks to Gu Yan, Yishuiyuan was not robbed, and the cucumber field survived and is now growing vigorously, green and lush. Bai Zhi had just approached, and before she could say a word, Qiaoqiao howled at her, "Miss! Come quickly, the third master is telling the story of the land fairy!"

When Gu Yan saw Bai Zhi coming, he moved to the side to make some space, and his expression was very gentle, as if the hot-blooded person a few days ago was not him.

Has the effect of the medicine worn off?

Bai Zhi felt relieved a little, and did not refuse his face, and sat down, so that the four of them formed a circle. Gu Yanzhan fanned and said, "Since the madam is here, I will tell you another interesting story.

"It is said that a long time ago, there was a land immortal who was traveling in the human world and saw a monk eating meat. The land immortal was shocked and asked: "You monk, why are you still eating meat?" The monk replied: "I don't eat it often, I only eat a little when I drink." The land immortal was shocked again and asked: "You monk, why are you still drinking?" The monk replied: "I don't drink often, I only drink a little with my father-in-law when he comes to visit."

Bai Zhi asked with an uncontrollable smile: "And then?"

"Then, the land god said angrily: You not only drink alcohol and eat meat, but also marry a wife. I will take away your certificate of ordination. The monk said: Don't worry, I was caught stealing by the government three years ago, and my certificate of ordination was taken away long ago. (Note)"

The three of them burst into laughter. Qiaoqiao laughed so hard that she swayed left and right and fell into Baizhi's arms. Lin Chuqi laughed until tears came out. Gu Yan was very considerate and fanned the three of them with a fan, looking at them with a smile.

When the laughter gradually died down, Bai Zhi took a breath and said, "That's enough of the jokes. Qiaoqiao, Chuqi, do you want to go out with me?"

Qiaoqiao's eyes lit up: "I want to!"

Lin Chuqi asked: "Madam San, where are we going?"

Bai Zhi: "Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, let's go out for a walk and buy you two some new clothes. And buy anything else you want. Qiaoqiao, go back to the house and get the money."

Qiaoqiao responded loudly with an "OK", jumped up and went behind Lin Chuqi, put her hands under his armpits and lifted him up.

Lin Chuqi asked in surprise: "What?"

Qiaoqiao tugged at his collar that was covered in flour and oil: "Look, you've made yourself so dirty from cooking. You need to change into clothes for shopping!"

The two children dragged each other to the side room. Gu Yanqi asked, "Where do you keep all your money?"

Her expression and tone were normal, and it seemed that the effect of the drug had finally worn off. Bai Zhi finally felt relieved and replied, "It's such a large sum of money. I don't want to spend it after I take it. I just want more money, so I only keep a few taels of loose change in my pocket. Qiaoqiao won't be like this. It's more appropriate to keep the money with her than with me."

"Gold and silver are like knives."

"Right." Bai Zhi said, "It is important for people to know themselves. They cannot fall into the same pit twice."

After a while, Qiaoqiao and Lin Chuqi changed their clothes and came over. Bai Zhi stood up, patted the dirt off her butt, and waved her hand: "Let's go!"

"Miss," Qiaoqiao pulled Baizhi's sleeve and asked, "Can you take the third master with you?"

Lin Chuqi nodded, her face full of anticipation: "Third Madam, please bring the Third Master along."

Bai Zhi was a little surprised. After listening to Gu Yan's jokes, the two children were willing to go shopping with him? She turned to look at Gu Yan and asked, "Is there anything going on later? If not, let's go together."

This was obviously beyond Gu Yan's expectations. He was stunned for a moment, then stood up, forgetting even to brush off the dust, and smiled: "Okay."

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the streets of all sizes of shops in the capital are crowded with people and business is booming. The driver followed Lin Chuqi's instructions and drove the carriage to a secluded alley.

"Turn out from the front and you will reach Donkey Shop Street." Lin Chuqi said, "The carriage can't go in, so we can only walk."

Qiaoqiao jumped off the carriage excitedly, leaned forward and shouted, "Donkey Shop Street, is that a place to eat donkey meat?"

"In the beginning, this street was full of donkey meat restaurants, but now it sells everything, including fabrics and jewelry, and the prices are reasonable. Before the Chinese New Year, I would come here to buy New Year goods."

The three of them got off the carriage, and Gu Yan told the driver to wait here. Bai Zhi held Qiaoqiao and Lin Chuqi tightly in one hand each, and said in a serious tone: "Before we go in, I have something to say. We have to play a game all day today until we return home."

The two children opened their eyes wide and listened attentively, even Gu Yan came over.

"Let's play a game called playing house. I'm the elder sister, he's the elder brother, and you're the younger brother and sister. No one is allowed to serve us, and no one is allowed to call us Miss, Third Madam, Third Master, etc. Otherwise, you lose. The person who wins in the end can make a wish on the Mid-Autumn Festival. Don't make it too extreme. As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you."
