The sacred tree is about to pass, and the cannon fodder's wish countdown is coming
Chapter 2: Wedding Night, the Bride Has Changed
Hearing about what happened to his secret guard, Qi Jin couldn't help but close his eyes. It was not because of sympathy, but because Qi Qi's already horrible face and his artificial expression made him unable to bear to look at it.
At the same time, Qi Jin slowly focused his thoughts on the man in the yard. The doors and windows of the house were open, and he could clearly see the handsome young man lazily basking in the sun.
That bright smiling face was slightly pink in the sunlight. Even Qi Jin, who had been praised as the most handsome man in the capital since childhood, was amazed at the man's appearance.
Even without gorgeous and exquisite clothes, her lazy and noble temperament is enough to make people fall in love with her.
Qi Jin reluctantly withdrew his gaze. From what Qi Qi said, this man's kung fu should be quite good. He should be more reserved and not be discovered.
As for Qi Qi's pitiful words asking him to seek justice, he pretended not to hear them.
Regardless of who is better in martial arts, it is unreasonable for Qi Qi to break into someone else's house without permission. Moreover, Qi Qi did this for him, so as Qi Qi's master, he should take responsibility.
Although Qi Jin often held a high position, in order to sit in that position, the education he received always required him to have virtue that covers heaven and earth, and to restrain himself and return to propriety.
The power he possesses is enormous, and if he cannot restrain himself, it will be a disaster for the world.
Obviously Qi Qi knew that he was in the wrong, but that didn't stop him from talking nonsense. He had suffered so much in the past few days, and if he didn't vent, he would suffocate to death.
He is just a secret guard, not a donkey.
Qi Jin no longer paid attention to Qi Qi's mumbling. He raised his eyes and glanced at the figure outside the window.
It stands to reason that when a patient at home wakes up, the host should express concern according to etiquette, not to mention that they are only separated by a wall.
He and Qi Qi made quite a bit of noise, so it was impossible that they didn't hear it.
The man lay on the recliner without saying a word, but it seemed that he was getting impatient.
Lu Shi, who was considered "calm", slightly opened his sleepy eyes. In just less than a quarter of an hour, he had actually fallen asleep.
He has spent a lot of energy in the past few days to repair the original owner's body.
Moreover, in this cold winter, he even specially decorated the house.
Otherwise, based on the previous conditions, it would only be a matter of time before he froze to death.
Fortunately, when he was worried, someone came forward to kill him, just when he was worried that no one would do anything for him.
But he is still very tired. If you give him a chance to lie down, he can fall asleep in seconds.
The leaves swayed in the gentle breeze, and the sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves onto the boy's face, forming a beautiful picture and adding a touch of mystery to the boy.
He has been here for nearly half a month, and the original owner has planted a jujube tree in the yard.
At that time, the original owner had just passed the imperial examination and was full of fighting spirit. This young man was full of vigor and ambition. This jujube tree carried his hope of becoming the top scorer in the imperial examination and bringing benefits to the village.
It has been planted for nearly four years and has grown very well under the careful care of the original owner. This year is the time for it to bloom and bear fruit.
However, the original owner fell ill at this time and relied entirely on the villagers to survive for the next year. He had no time to take care of the tree.
When he first saw the tree here, it was growing quite well, but most of the fruits were dry and small.
With his deliberate care, the tree benefited greatly. In just two weeks, it was reborn, and the dates on the tree were crisp and sweet.
It's been windy lately, and a lot of dates have fallen to the ground. The monkey had originally volunteered to pick the dates, but we couldn't rely on it today.
"Qi Qi, bring out a basket." It would be a waste to have a laborer at home if we don't use him.
"......Okay." Although he was reluctant, Qi Qi responded reflexively when he heard Lu Shi's voice, and his tone was quite flattering.
Qi Qi was filled with grief. His martial arts skills were not bad. He had been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Although he was not the best in the world, he was ranked among the best. However, he was completely crushed.
Originally he was still unwilling to accept it, thinking that it was just an accident that night, and he was inevitably in the way because he had to protect his master.
When he could no longer tolerate the other party's dictating to him, he resisted.
But...it's useless.
Qi Qi fell into self-doubt. He really didn't expect... that he couldn't even beat a monkey!
He finally surrendered, and the result was that his body and face had more "color".
Qi Qi happily started picking up dates on the ground. While Lu Shi wasn't paying attention, he quickly wiped them with his sleeves and picked out a few of the reddest and largest dates and threw them into his mouth.
'Hey, that's sweet.'
Lu Shi simply couldn't bear to see his shifty eyes, the way he did something bad and then pretended to be innocent and grinned at him.
Lu Shi lowered his eyes and calmed down, and the original owner's affairs slowly came to his mind.
He would definitely do whatever the original owner wanted to do, starting with the imperial examination.
The original owner is now a juren, and will have to take part in the metropolitan examination and the palace examination later.
The original owner missed this year's imperial examination, so he has to wait for three years.
Although the travel expenses for the Juren going to Beijing to take the imperial examination were subsidized, which was certainly enough for ordinary people, the original owner's body was probably broken along the way.
Although his health has improved a lot after coming here, there is no need for him to suffer this way. If it can improve the quality of life, why not do it?
In three years, he was able to earn enough money.
Lu Shi stretched his body. As a juren, the original owner had many minor officials and wealthy people offering him benefits. Moreover, the original owner was the top scorer in the provincial examination, so his future was limitless.
But the original owner was in poor health. She was a woman disguised as a man and was not very big. People who didn't know the reason just thought that the original owner was a sickly person.
In this era, one would have to stay in the examination hall for several days while the environment was terrible. An ordinary person would probably lose half his life. It was still unknown whether the original owner could survive.
Therefore, those people were not wholehearted in betting on the original owner.
As the saying goes, "a scholar is poor, but a juren is rich." The original owner actually does not have to worry about money. Juren has the privilege of tax exemption and labor service exemption. Therefore, many wealthy businessmen want to donate land to the original owner to exempt the land tax, and the original owner will also make a lot of profit.
The original owner was a very upright person, and he could not agree with the practice of tax evasion.
Of course, the original owner's actions offended many people. The original owner disliked them, and they disliked the original owner, but it was not worth it to offend the extremely talented and brilliant scholar.
He couldn't go against the original owner's wishes if the original owner didn't want to do it, so he had to think of other ways to make money.
Then Lu Shi frowned again. He didn't know where the monkey had gone.
The monkey system, which had been doing nothing in the back mountain for a long time, began to realize that if it didn't do something, there would be no place for it in that home.
Suddenly, a small, snow-white jumping figure broke into the monkey system's sight. Its eyes lit up, and it was saved!
The monkey system started cooking just before Lu Shih'erbian lost his temper. Its host had a bad temper. While he didn't get angry often, he would secretly plot against others. It should be thankful that this guy still retained some divine nature.
While cooking, the Monkey System instructed Qi Qi to wash some dates so that Lu Shi could fill his stomach first.
It was trying to calm the last bit of anger in its host.
Qi Qi: So? He's the one with the lowest status in this family!
