The wood mage and the native brother

"Okay!"

Ji Xiaomei's eyes are bright,

"we have a deal!"

The crisp voice is obviously very confident in himself.

"we have a deal."

Fino repeated with a smile.

Ji Deng looked sideways at the smiling face of Fei Nuo playing with Ji Xiaomei with the woodcut, and watched all the way quietly, suddenly a different feeling appeared in his heart.

The nose is high and the eyes are deep and fierce, which looks strange, but when you look closely, it has a different taste, and it can be called "handsome". After looking at the dark green eyes for a long time, I only feel that they are as gentle and mysterious as a Wang Bitan.Even the brocade clothes and jade boots did not take away his brilliance at all, but became a foil.Such a man, even if he is wearing linen clothes, Ji Deng thought, could he be the first to see him in the crowd?

Fei Nuo was rich, so he could have just given some money to spend casually, but a dignified man took them to visit the shops that only brothers and sisters would enter, and the care he usually gave was not fake.

The hand hidden in the sleeve touched the silky fabric, Ji Deng thought, how nice it has always been like this.

When we returned to Xiaohe Village, it was already dark as expected, so Fei Nuo untied a rope from his hand and handed it to Uncle Niu.

"Today, please take us back and forth, this is some crispy candy, take it home and try it."

Uncle Niu didn't expect to get snacks after taking the fare, so he squinted his eyes with a smile, rubbed his hands together and said,

"Then I'm welcome, thank you."

Fei Nuo smiled and nodded, led Ji Xiaomei and brought the Ji Lantern, and walked towards Ji's house through the night.

Ji family.

It was dinner time, but no one cared about it.They all gathered around the table covered with brocade silk in the main room, and no one was willing to leave first.

Fang held a corner of the ginger cloth in amazement,

"The cloth is slippery and soft, and the color is beautiful. It might cost a tael of silver a foot. A Nuo is really rich."

Clutching a piece of water-red cloth, Mrs. Xu said with a smile,

"Siblings are too exaggerated. One tael of silver per foot must be Suzhou embroidery. This is not enough."

Of course, Fang could hear that Xu was mocking her for her ignorance, and she was not angry when she heard the words, so she hugged the material with yellow flowers on a blue background and approached Granny Fang.

"Since the sister-in-law doesn't like these materials, it's just right. I'm vulgar, and I don't dislike getting something for nothing. Besides, this is Brother Deng and his cousin is polite, so I don't have any dissatisfaction. This horse The material, my mother must look good in a summer dress."

As Fang said, she winked at Sister Xie and Brother Yan with a smile on her face, and hugged the horses she liked, and stood in front of her without letting go.

"These few horses, let me make the upper body for Ah Huan. The poor child has no good clothes to wear. It is rare to get such a good material. Then I will make the upper body for sister Yan and brother Yan. The two children are grown up. It's almost time to say goodbye, this water-red horse must look pretty."

Xu's face froze because of being blocked by Fang's, and he watched helplessly as the water-red material in his hand was dragged away by Fang's.

The two sisters-in-law here are fighting secretly, while Ji Shuo and Ji Huan on the other side are carefully touching the dark material on the other side - it looks like it is for men to wear.It is also the first time they have touched such a good material when they grow up to such a big age. Before, they only saw their classmates wear it in school.They are still half-grown teenagers, so they are naturally happy to have new clothes to wear.

Granny Fang hugged the cloth and said nothing. After a long while, she called Ji Hai and Ji Jiang brothers into the house.

"It's for everyone in the family."

Granny Fang caressed the cloth in her bosom, loving it, and told Ji Haidao,

"I'm going to the county tomorrow, and I'll ask A Liao Fulang to come back and take back their materials and make new clothes for them."

Ji Hai nodded in agreement, but his attention was obviously not on the fabric.

Looking out the window, Ji Hai lowered his voice and said to the old lady,

"I asked Xun Yalang before I came back today, and Yalang said that he had already found it according to Brother Deng's cousin's wishes, and he just waited to go to the relative to see the loan, as for the number of Yalang, he would not say anything. "

Saying that, Ji Hai frowned, cursed Yalang secretly, said without a wink, paused, and continued,

"Anyway, Brother Deng and his cousin must have a house in the county. Every inch of land in the county is expensive. In addition to the pile of fabrics delivered today, there are also five copies of the four treasures of the study. It seems that this young man is Quite well established."

Ji Hai squinted his eyes, his face was full of calculations.

Granny Fang obviously thought the same way, and she looked at Ji Hai with the same expression.but……

"This young man surnamed Fei is willing to spend so much money in our house for Brother Deng's sake. After Deng Brother gets married in a few days, this young man surnamed Fei will definitely go to Huang's house. "

Thinking of all the money going into other people's pockets like this, even if the money didn't belong to Ji's family, old lady Fang still felt heartbroken.

"otherwise……"

Mrs. Fang expressed her thoughts that had been planned for a day,

"Let's find a reason to get rid of the Huang family. Don't the youngsters surnamed Fei value Brother Deng's brothers and sisters? Cousins ​​are not as good as in-laws. Besides, this youngster is not a serious cousin." Let him be the son-in-law of our family, even if he looks at the eyes of outsiders, he has to get along well with us."

As for what is meant by "getting along well", that is a matter for the benevolent to see the benevolent and the wise to see wisdom.

"What, what?"

But I heard Ji Jiang stammering,

"But, Brother Deng, I'm going to get married in a few days, so I'm retiring now..."

Granny Fang glared at Ji Jiang immediately, and Ji Jiang lowered his head, swallowing the rest of his words.

Ji Hai glanced at his third brother contemptuously, that's all he has to offer!

Ji Hai rolled his eyes, and the old lady said,

"This relative is definitely going to retire, but we can't."

"What's the matter?"

Mrs. Fang frowned,

"Let the Huang family come back? Doesn't it seem that there is something wrong with our family and people look down on them?!"

Ji Hai smiled mysteriously,

"Of course not."

……

Fang's and Xu's were constantly fighting outside, Sister Xi shrank aside, but secretly helped Fang hold the cloth tightly, and only held Xu's anger away. .

Granny Fang and Brother Ji Hai came out to see her, and Granny Fang immediately scolded,

"What are you grabbing? Don't hurry to make dinner. Brother Deng and the others will come back later and tell people to laugh at me! I have never seen the world!"

Only then did Fang and Xu let go of their hands with a half-smile, and the eyes that only occasionally collided with each other were still splattered with flames.

Coincidentally, as soon as Mrs. Fang looked at the distribution of materials to each room and carried them back to the house, Fei Nuo came back with Ji Deng brothers and sisters.

As soon as they returned to Ji's house, Ji Deng's brother and sister unconsciously returned to their taciturn appearance, Fei Nuo knew it in his heart, never said much, and put away the conversation, just silently carrying things, standing beside Ji Deng , although the stature is not stalwart, Ji Deng has a feeling of peace of mind.

Just like when Ji He and Qi Shi were around.

Ji Deng's drooping brows and eyes couldn't help showing a trace of tenderness.

Mrs. Xu, who hid the materials and came out, saw the three of them, and just as she went out to say hello, she was taken aback by the brother and sister Deng who had completely new looks from head to toe, and she didn't recognize who they were.

After he reacted, he saw that the two brothers and sisters were wearing brand new brocade clothes and boots and embroidered shoes, which reflected the sunset behind them, not to mention how beautiful they were.Xu's smiling face suddenly froze, and the acid water in his stomach began to churn.

She and Fang Shi had been arguing for the material for a long time, and she was complacent about what she had snatched for a long time.But Brother Deng and his sister were lucky, they just put on the upper body, and they were glamorous from head to toe.Next to him, Fei Nuo carried a bunch of big and small bags. Judging by the size, he probably bought another pile of clothes and shoes!And halva!Brother Deng is also lucky, with such a wealthy cousin, how can outsiders like them have such a fate!

Xu's bile was about to come out sour, but he still had to smile on his face, it was really hard work.

The Ji family who also heard the sound also saw Brother Deng's brother and sister standing in the courtyard.

Although he still looks like he keeps his head down and doesn't like to talk, but with the satin clothes on his body and a pair of satin shoes, he is not a village boy, but looks like a young master.

For a while, everyone in the Ji family was silent.Ji Hai's eyes were filled with fiery colors, and his abacus was already rattling.Ji Shuo couldn't hide his jealousy, and Ji Huan, who always had a cold face, couldn't help being envious.Not to mention Brother Yan, who is also a younger brother. Seeing Brother Deng completely changed his appearance, he couldn't help but wonder if he would look like this when he put on new clothes.

Fang once again lamented the good fortune of the second room in her heart, but she didn't see that the expression on the face of the lowered sister beside her was not quite right.

Fei Nuo stood here impatiently and let Ji's family look at him, and said with a smile,

"I'm really sorry, I came back late and missed dinner, didn't you wait for us?"

Ji Hai's face froze, he took a look at the sky, usually at this moment, they had already finished their dinner and returned to the house.It's just that you can't be ashamed in front of Fei Nuo, stroked your beard and smiled,

"I've used it, I've used it. There are meals left for you by your aunt in the cupboard. Go and eat."

There are always pickles in the cupboard of Ji's family, so they are convenient to eat and take at any time, and they are not afraid that Fei Nuo will really go to get them.But a rich young man like Fei Nuo definitely doesn't like pickle lumps.

Sure enough, Fei Nuo shyly showed the oiled paper bag in his hand to Ji's family.

"No need, we bought some snacks and came back, just eat some on the mat. After walking all day today, we are really tired, so we will go back to the house to rest first. Brother Deng and the younger sister haven't had dinner yet."

So he brought Ji Deng brothers and sisters back to the house lightly under the eyes of Ji's family.

Ji Shuo looked at the oiled paper bag in Fei Nuo's hand, his eyes were almost red,

"He has snacks worth tens of pennies a catty, how can he look up to pickle clappers!"

Ji Hai turned his head and scolded Ji Shuo. Ji Shuo lost face in front of Ji Huan and went back to the house angrily.

Ji Hai shook his head secretly, Ji Shuo was still a child at heart, much worse than Ji Liao.

When he was in the school today, Ji Hai told Mr. Ji about Fei Nuo in detail.Thinking of Ji Laoxiu's affirmation of his thoughts, Ji Hai Chengzhu smiled.

A day without snacks is nothing.

In the future, it will be a big fish and meat.

...

When Ji Huan returned to the third room, Brother Yan had just returned from work.Seeing Ji Huan, he immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes,

"Third brother."

Ji Huan responded, took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, opened it, and found two sesame cakes inside.

"Take it and eat it with Sister Xi."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Brother Yan to speak, he pushed the door of his own room and went in.

If Ji Huan ate too much at Ji Liao's house at noon, the sesame seed cakes he bought to satisfy his hunger would no longer be needed. Although he could eat it overnight, Ji Huan was picked on by Mrs. Fang and Fang's spoiled mouth since he was a child, so he naturally refused to touch it. , So they are often distributed to Sister Xie and Brother Yan who work more and eat less.

Brother Yan hid in the house with the oil paper bag in his arms, picked up a piece of sesame seed cake that had cooled and hardened, took a bite and started chewing, his eyes suddenly curved with happiness.

Today I have new clothes and sesame seed cakes, if only I could do this every day.

Sister Xi went back to the house after finishing her work, and she saw brother Yan who was eating deliciously.Brother Yan took the oil paper bag and greeted in a low voice,

"The third brother gave it to us, come and eat it."

Sister Xi glanced at Brother Yan, ignored the sesame biscuits, and lay on the bed facing the wall by herself, looking sleepy.

Brother Yan only thought that Mrs. Fang or Mrs. Xu had scolded her again, and swallowed while looking at the remaining biscuits, but he quickly folded the oiled paper bag and placed it next to Sister Xi's head.Following Sister Xie in the opposite direction, she also lay down on the bed, closed her eyes and tried her best to let herself ignore the aroma from the remaining sesame seed cakes, maybe she was really tired, and soon fell into a deep sleep, in the dream Zhang Zhang Freshly baked sesame biscuits.

In the dark night, the sleeping sister suddenly opened her eyes, took the oiled paper bag next to her head into her hand, opened her eyes and stared blankly for a while, finally succumbed to her throbbing stomach, opened the oiled paper bag, But as if venting his anger, he bit down on the biscuits fiercely, and the unknown emotions in his eyes were as thick as dark clouds.

How could Ji Huan not even want to eat biscuits, but she couldn't even eat a dumpling!

Why did Brother Deng once have such a rich cousin, and today he wears gold and silver and eats snacks worth tens of pennies a catty!

Why? !He is a brother!

The night was dark, but the girl's eyes sparkled, as if she had made up her mind.
