You are my golden finger

Lin Xijin and everyone took a boat along the river. The river meandered like a tamed dragon, flowing slowly.

Lin Xijin pointed to the built flood control embankment and introduced to everyone the data on Jiuchang County's river dredging, dam construction and disaster relief expenses, which left Xihui and others stunned.

"Sister, I heard from father that you donated all the food, medicine and silver in our home to disaster relief. Does that mean our family is out of money and food?" Xin Lan asked worriedly.

"Well, there's not much left, just enough for everyone to eat." Lin Xijin answered casually.

"Sister, when I get back I will go to the palace and give you all the silver bills and rewards in the palace." Xin Lan believed it.

"Sister, I have money too. I'll give it all to you when I get back." An An said, "Whenever An An makes more money in the future, I'll give it all to you, sister."

"Sister doesn't want your money. Sister has money. You've forgotten that sister has a lot of dowry." Seeing that she had made these children anxious, Lin Xijin hurried to comfort them.

From a distance, you can see the towering dam, which seems to be at least 80 or 90 meters high. It is like a sleeping dragon, quietly lying across the valley.

Everyone climbed up the dam and admired the scenery of the valley. They saw winding green mountains and thick green trees. The entire canyon has been widened. It is the flood season again. The surface of the reservoir is wide and smooth like a mirror. The blue sky, white clouds and the surrounding mountains and forests are reflected on the water, forming a beautiful picture.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!" An An, who was here for the first time, broke the silence and said, "Sister, are there any fish in the lake?"

"Yes, but they shouldn't be very big now. Due to the reservoir construction some time ago, the big ones have probably been caught by the soldiers." Lin Xijin replied.

"Sister, we'll come back someday and catch fish, okay?"

"Okay!" Lin Xijin agreed casually.

Lin Xijin inspected the construction situation and found that everything was normal. The project was arranged in an orderly manner by Deputy General Zhang, so she left with peace of mind.

However, when they returned to the yard, they saw a scene that surprised everyone.

Qi Jinghao was lying on a rocking chair under the wisteria trellis, with his legs stretched out. A beautiful girl in a white dress was glaring at him.

"Brother Hao, you're here!" An An saw Qi Jinghao and ran over quickly, "An An missed you so much."

When Qi Jinghao saw everyone coming back, he quickly stood up, carried An An to sit on a chair, and then greeted everyone in a nonchalant manner: "You're back."

The girl in white ran straight to Lin Xijin, shouting, "Sister Jin, you are Sister Jin, right? You're back!"

"Yes, I'm Lin Xijin."

"Oh, hello Sister Jin! Let me introduce myself. My name is Ming Ruoyue. I am the granddaughter of the Seven Star Pavilion's grand elder. I grew up with Brother Hao." Ming Ruoyue introduced herself generously.

"You're welcome to come and play."

"Sister Jin, you have to help me. Brother Hao is a big bastard. He sent my luggage to Jiuchang City and he doesn't let me live here!" Ming Ruyue said with some pride.

Lin Xijin stroked his forehead, it seemed that he had met another pair of happy enemies. However, he still patiently comforted Ming Ruyue and said, "It's okay, this is my territory, I'll let you stay here. I'll get you some new clothes to change tonight, you can just have someone bring your luggage over."

"Thank you, Sister Jin! It's just that I can't distribute the gifts I brought to everyone now, so I can only give them out tomorrow. Don't blame me, blame Brother Hao if you want to blame someone, he's a big bad guy." Ming Ruyue was angry again when she talked about this.

"Don't blame us, don't blame us. We don't blame you, we blame Brother Hao." Everyone thought the girl was very funny and agreed with her to comfort Ming Ruyue.

Ming Ruyue was indeed comforted. She clenched her fists to show her protest to Qi Jinghao, then hugged Lin Xijin and walked home. She acted so familiarly as if she was back home, without any sense of being a guest.

After dinner, Lin Xijin took out two sets of modified Hanfu, one set of sea blue dress with sapphire headpiece, and one set of cherry blossom pink with pink diamond necklace, earrings and hair crown. At the same time, she also sent over two sets of nightgowns of the same color.

Ming Ruyue liked it as soon as she saw it and immediately wanted to wash and change her clothes. Lin Xijin asked Qiuyan to stay and help her put on makeup, and she went to find Qi Jinghao.

"Would you like to introduce yourself?" Lin Xijin said to Qi Jinghao.

"Ming Ruyue? Alas, this girl is the granddaughter of the great elder of the pavilion, and she is fourteen years old this year. Her parents were killed by a feud shortly after she was born. She grew up with the great elder, who doted on her very much. The great elder passed away due to illness a few days ago, and entrusted her to my grandfather. And so, after I went back, she has been relying on me." Qi Jinghao spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Oh, they are childhood sweethearts! Not bad, not bad." Lin Xijin said with a smile.

"What childhood sweethearts? This girl is so unruly and willful!" Qi Jinghao blushed a little at Lin Xijin's smile.

Well, it seems that Qi Jinghao himself doesn't understand what kind of feelings he has for Ming Ruyue. Also, as the young master of the Seven Star Pavilion, who can stay with him if he doesn't want to?

"Sister Jin, I really like the clothes and jewelry you gave me. Do you think I'm pretty?" Ming Ruyue ran in excitedly, interrupting their chat.

She wore a cherry-pink Hanfu with lotus-leaf sleeves and a silk ribbon of the same color tied around her waist, which highlighted her graceful figure. She wore a pink diamond necklace around her fair neck and earrings of the same color on her ears, which swayed gently as she walked.

She tied her long silky hair up lightly and put on a princess hair crown also inlaid with pink diamonds. She applied a little blush on her cheeks and lightly touched her lips, which fully highlighted the beauty of a young girl.

"Well, this dress suits you very well. It's really beautiful." Lin Xijin answered while observing Qi Jinghao out of the corner of her eyes.

This guy was quite good at pretending, tapping his ebony fan to show his indifference, but his dull eyes and the gradually reddening ears had already betrayed him.

"Qi Jinghao, aren't you right?" Lin Xijin teased Qi Jinghao on purpose.

"Hmm." Qi Jinghao hummed softly.

But this voice obviously gave Ming Ruyue great encouragement, and she said happily: "Sister Jin, I'll go change another one for you to see."

"Ruyue, don't change yet. Sister Jin wants to see you."

Just kidding, it's not a fashion show, there's really no need. Besides, men like novelty and novelty, it would be better and more amazing to show it off another day.

The two of them walked away together. Only when they were far away from Qi Jinghao did Lin Xijin say to Ming Ruyue, "Mingyue, your brother Hao's eyes widened when he saw you. It's obvious that he likes you. But you don't need to show it too much at once. It will be better if you show it from time to time."

"Ah? Is that so? No wonder Grandpa Qi told me to ask you for more advice!" Ming Ruyue said frankly.

"Grandpa Qi? Qi Jinghao's grandfather, Pavilion Master Qi? I don't know him either."

"Sister Jin, you don't know that you are a legendary figure in our Qixing Pavilion and are very famous. Before leaving, Grandpa Qi told me to make friends with you, listen to you, and ask you for advice when I have something to do. He said you will definitely be able to help me." Ming Ruyue said sincerely.

Lin Xijin really couldn't imagine that she would be so famous. It seemed that Pavilion Master Qi had already done some research on her.

Telling Ming Ruyue this might mean that she would be asked to help bring these two ignorant and happy enemies together.
