The wood mage and the native brother

In Xu's eager anticipation, it was just past noon, and it was not until Fang and Ji Jiang were about to go to the ground again that Fei Nuo, accompanied by Li Zheng, came with a hand full of greeting gifts.

The heart that Xu held was put into her belly, she stood up with a smile and greeted her.

"Lizheng and Arnold are here, have you had lunch yet? If not, I'll make some for you."

As he said that, he was about to turn around and go to the fire room.

Li Zheng hurriedly persuaded him, stroked his beard cheerfully,

"No, no, I've been at home."

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she took advantage of the situation, invited the two to sit down in the main room, and sent brother Yan to call brother Deng, and went to find someone in Mrs. Fang's room by herself.

Ji Deng quickly brought Ji Xiaomei out, saw Fei Nuo and Li Zheng in the main room, lowered their heads and shouted,

"Li Zheng, cousin."

Fino heard the sound and looked, his dark green eyes gently bent, beckoning,

"Come on."

Ji Xiaomei was lively, she ran forward holding the Ji Lantern, stood beside Fei Nuo's legs and raised her head to ask,

"Is my cousin here to see us today?"

"Of course."

Feinuo gently stroked the withered and yellow hair of little sister Ji,

"I don't know today, but I will come here often in the future."

Hearing this, Ji Xiaomei suddenly smiled.

Fino touched his bosom with one free hand, took out a palm-sized oiled paper bag and handed it to the siblings,

"Take it and share it. I'll buy it for you when I'm done eating."

The oiled paper bag was stuffed into Ji Deng's hands, Ji Deng untied the string tied on it, and a few pieces of finger-sized snacks were exposed inside, smelling a faint sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance, and you can tell how expensive it is at a glance .

Since it was given by my cousin, Ji Deng unceremoniously picked up one and fed it to Ji Xiaomei who was watching eagerly for a long time, and then picked one up to eat.

"Is it delicious?"

Fino asked.

"good smell."

Ji Deng sucked the tip of his tongue, the smell of copper plate was even more fragrant than sweet-scented osmanthus.

Li was sitting in the upper position, stroking his beard and looking at the warm scene in front of him cheerfully, but he thought that Brother Deng would go out in half a month, and then he would not be able to see each other as often as the three cousins ​​now, so he couldn't help but feel sad a bit.

Thinking of Fei Nuo's expression when he heard about Brother Deng's marriage on the way back yesterday, Li Zheng sighed secretly. The relatives he hadn't seen for 20 years were only half a month away, let alone Fei Nuo's mind was gloomy, he was an old man Can't help but feel sad.

Li Zheng was feeling emotional for a while, then turned his head and saw the Sanfang couple who were carrying a hoe and were about to go to the ground, he quickly laughed and said,

"Ah Jiang, don't be in a hurry to go down to the ground. Last time I came here with the younger generation, I'm afraid I didn't see it. Now the younger generation came here to recognize people."

Ever since seeing Lizheng and this strange green-eyed man entering the door, Fang had already guessed that the green-eyed man might be Brother Deng's cousin. Even though he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help being surprised when he saw it.After a little calculation, I wanted to stay and take a good look, so I dawdled at the door on purpose.

After hearing Li Zheng's words, Fang showed a smiling face and pulled Ji Jiang over.

"What Lizheng said is, if you don't go or not, you're not busy anyway, so it doesn't matter if you delay for a day."

After a few words of politeness, Fang's eyes glanced at the green-eyed man next to him, met Fei Nuo's eyes, and smiled,

"This is the nephew of the Qi family, Brother Deng's cousin."

Fino nodded and replied,

"It's me, who are you?"

Just as Fang was about to speak, the door creaked, and Mrs. Fang and Xu came out one after the other.Ji Deng quickly folded up the oil paper and stuffed it into his arms, and pulled Ji Xiaomei to stand aside.

Mrs. Fang said hello to Li Zheng, she just glanced casually at Fei Nuo and Brother Deng, and asked Fang Shi and Ji Jiang,

"Why didn't you go down to the ground?"

Li Zheng cheerfully explained,

"I said to stay here so we can recognize someone, after all, we are relatives."

Mrs. Fang showed a bit of sarcasm on her face,

"My old lady has never heard of a relative's younger generation rushing to recognize relatives in the afternoon."

Rizheng let out an "ah" in disapproval,

"This young man of Fei's family lives in the county, and it takes an hour to go here early in the morning, not to mention the need to prepare a door-to-door gift - it was dark when I went back yesterday, so I can't do it today. Sister-in-law Ji Don't be so aggressive."

Just as Li finished speaking, Fei Nuo took half a step forward and brought the things in his hand to Granny Fang.

"This is my visiting ceremony, please forgive me if I am rude."

The end is a stable and introverted look, with an extraordinary bearing, as if yesterday is different from that excited and stubborn person.

Of course, Mrs. Fang wanted to give Lizheng face. She nodded her head in a half-hearted manner, and glanced at the things in Fei Nuo's hand from the corner of her eye, but her face showed surprise, and she quickly motioned to her two sons When the daughter-in-law went to pick him up, Duo Fei Nuo looked much better.

Mrs. Xu stepped forward with a smile on her face, and Mrs. Fang took the things from Fei Nuo's hand one by one on the left and the other on the right.

As soon as the thing was out of his hand, the smile on Fei Nuo's face became real, and the hands on both sides of his body clenched and stretched, as if nothing had happened.

But Ji Deng standing behind Fei Nuo couldn't help looking at Fei Nuo strangely.

Shouldn't he...can't hold it...

Feeling the weight of the hand, and looking at the size of the thing without any trace, the smile on Xu's face became quite sincere.Then he seems to have casually glanced at the silk and satin material on Fei Nuo's body that is different from yesterday, and he has an abacus in his heart.

Both Xu Shi and Fang Shi received a big box, but they couldn't see what was inside.

Fino arched his hands, pointed to the box and said,

"I heard that there are quite a few scholars in my family, so I bought some pens and paper, hoping to use them at home, which is also a little kindness from my younger generation."

These words were carefully taught by Li Zheng along the way because he was afraid that Fei Nuo would not understand Daan's worldly ways.Seeing that what Fei Nuo said was accurate, Li Zheng couldn't help nodding his head in satisfaction, and thinking about what Fei Nuo mentioned again when he came this morning, he was even more satisfied with Fei Nuo in his heart.

As soon as Granny Fang heard the word "pen and paper", she first faintly showed some ecstasy, and then a look of doubt.

This young man surnamed Fei is not just bragging, pens, inks, papers and inkstones are quite a fortune.

Ji's family sees more than a dozen acres of fertile land and is rich. The family is a teacher in the county earning a private school, and there is an eldest grandson who works as an accountant. It is really glamorous to support several scholars.

But the reality is that Ji's family can't make ends meet, and Ji Laoxiu is able to avoid some tutoring, and the real expenditure is mostly spent on these pens and papers.Even the cheapest pen costs ten coins a piece, and the four members of the Ji family cost forty coins. It used up the food money of the Ji family for several days, not to mention buying ink sticks and inkstones, which shows how scary it is to spend money.

On weekdays, most of the pens and paper used by Ji Hai and the three of them were made by Ji Laoxiu from the school. A piece of paper is often used for the front and the back, especially for Ji Huan. Looking at a piece of paper, Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Fang felt very sad.

Seeing that Ji Hai was about to take the examination for a scholar, it was the time to write a paper on the policy, but Brother Deng's dowry was only half the price, and the round-trip travel expenses would be enough if he put together things together, so how could it be evenly distributed? Come out to buy paper and pen.This time, Fei Nuo can be regarded as sent to the hearts of the Ji family.

Mrs. Fang beckoned, and Mrs. Xu took the box in her hand knowingly.

As soon as the box was in hand, Granny Fang couldn't wait to open it, and saw that there were five brushes neatly arranged inside, and when she opened it, there were five round inkstones lying quietly underneath.

Granny Fang immediately waved at Fang again, and opened the box impatiently as soon as she got it, only to see that there was a stack of snow-white rice paper inside, which was much better than what Ji's family usually used.Open it up and take a look below, and you will find ink sticks as thick as five thumbs.

So rich!

The two daughters-in-law who were watching along side couldn't help being dumbfounded, and Mrs. Xu was even more amazed.

This kind of white rice paper can be regarded as high-grade. Although Mrs. Xu doesn't know which level of high-grade rice paper it is, and whether it has a name, this piece of paper is already worth a lot of money.What's more, Fei Nuo still sent the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in five copies, but I don't think there is any three or four taels of silver that can't be bought.

As soon as you make a move, it's three or four!

Xu clasped her handkerchief to press her pounding chest, and a decision was quietly formed.

Looking at the anxious look of the old lady Fang, Li couldn't help but shook his head and sighed twice, but when he saw the things in the box in a blink of an eye, he couldn't help but marvel, and quietly glanced at Fei Nuo who was standing there as steady as a mountain, and sighed Excited about it.

I don't know how Ji's family has such a wealthy relative, just because of today's gift, Mrs. Fang will never give Fei Nuo any face in the future, and even more so if she wants to praise him high.Brother Deng, brother and sister, can be said to have endured all hardships. With such a cousin, whether it is Ji's family or Huang Butcher's family, they can't be regarded as eyeballs.

Ji Deng, who was standing facing Mrs. Fang, couldn't see what was in the box, but he could see the surprise mixed with ecstasy on the faces of the three of them.After a little thought, he knew that the "pen and paper" that Fei Nuo sent was probably in five copies, and they were all good things, which made the always smiling aunt lose her composure.

After all, Fei Nuo is wearing good materials, and he will not be stingy in this regard. It's just that Ji Deng is really reluctant to give so much money to Ji's family, even if it is not his pocket.

But when he thought of the black cloak that was sold by him on the front foot, and the owner appeared on the back foot, Ji Deng couldn't help scratching his face guiltily.

He still doesn't want to think about it.

Fino stood there and looked at the three women in front of him with an innocent look on his face. Although he was already impatiently thinking of a spell to hang them all upside down with vines, he still maintained a stable and young look on his face, but his peripheral vision was Put it on Ji Deng and never left.

Thinking about it with wood, he knew that he didn't come here today to send money to Ji's family.Just from yesterday to now, in several conversations with Li Zheng, Fei Nuo has caused Li Zheng's doubts more than once because of his lack of common sense in Daan.

Fei Nuo couldn't understand any of "Xiu Cai", "Tong Sheng", "County Examination" and "Qiu Wei", let alone respond to Li Zheng's words.

Although he changed the subject by using the name of a foreigner, Fino was clearly aware of the danger of exposing himself to others.Therefore, it is imperative for Fei Nuo to take away the season lights.
