Ye Xiaotian strolled into the backyard leisurely, as if he was taking a leisurely stroll.
Every time he walked into the mansion, Ye Xiaotian had a very special feeling, "This is my mansion, and I am a rich man now! I really want to move it back to the capital, and let all the neighbors see that the second son of the Ye family has a great future. "
The position of the Warden gave him a status in the secular world, and the endless treasures of the Divine Hall and the countless believers who could decide life and death because of him gave him wealth and power. Suddenly obtaining all of these, Ye Xiaotian could not help but feel a little like a nouveau riche. Fortunately, this kind of complacency was only a fantasy in the bottom of his heart, or he would definitely be despised by the tycoon.
A young girl carrying a wooden basin full of clothes hopped out of the bamboo forest on the side, humming a mountain song. Suddenly seeing Ye Xiaotian, she was startled. She quickly stopped and bowed, "Master!"
This was one of the little maids chosen by the middleman for Ye Xiaotian. The Warden's family needed people, so how could the middleman not do his best? The maids he chose for Ye Xiaotian were all pleasing to the eye, clever, sensible, and had a clean family background. This little girl was called Luo Yue 'er. Because she was clever, clever, and pleasing to the eye, she was arranged by Ye Xiaotian to work in the back house.
As soon as Ye Xiaotian saw her, he immediately put on the airs of a master, smiled at her with dignity and kindness, and nodded to her. He put his hands behind his back and walked forward slowly. Luo Yue 'er waited until Ye Xiaotian walked past her, quietly stuck out her tongue, and crossed the path full of flowers and grass, but she did not dare to run anymore, nor did she dare to sing the song.
With his hands behind his back, Ye Xiaotian walked forward slowly. He turned his head and saw the back of Luo Yue 'er, who was walking slowly with a basin of clothes on her shoulder.
Her slender waist was tied loosely by a belt, making her look extremely frail. The soft knickerbockers on her lower body were very tight. Looking at her curves, her little butt was not fully developed yet. It was thin and narrow, not much wider than her waist, and did not highlight the softness of a woman.
However, when Ye Xiaotian glanced at the swaying buttocks, he actually felt a little restless. "I have sinned! Sin! I must be in heat! Think about it, I am already 20 years old, and I have not had sex yet. Yingying, I am afraid that I will not be able to keep myself pure for you … "
Thinking of the obstacles set by the Xia family for him and Yingying, Ye Xiaotian, Ye Xiaotian frowned unconsciously, but a sweet voice interrupted his worries, "Brother Tian, you are back!"
Sister Sun happily came forward to welcome him, the silver bells on her ankles tinkling, but it was not noisy at all. Paired with her charming smile, the sound of the bells was like a celestial music, enchanting and captivating. Ye Xiaotian nodded, "Where is Yaoyao? Why don't I see her? "
Sister Sun very naturally went behind Ye Xiaotian and helped him take off his outer robe, saying, "Yaoyao is still practicing her calligraphy. I told her to rest for a while, but she did not listen."
Ye Xiaotian shook his head and laughed, "This little girl is very studious. Oh right, where is Old Mao? I did not see him making a fuss, but it is rare. "
Sister Sun hung his robe on a hanger, took a snow-white towel and washed it in the basin, wrung it dry, and handed it to Ye Xiaotian. Her movements were smooth and natural, like a virtuous and gentle wife. Hearing his words, she pursed her lips and smiled, "Him, he and Yunfei followed Elder Dong up the mountain."
Ye Xiaotian made an 'oh' sound, and said, "Elder Dong went up the mountain again?"
Sister Taiyang said, "That's right! Elder Dong said that winter is coming soon, so we have to quickly catch some rare worms. Since you are free, we can teach you Gu refinement. If we want to catch rare poisonous worms, we have to go deep into the mountains, so we are not coming back today. "
Ye Xiaotian said, "I am not surprised that Yunfei followed, but Old Mao is most afraid of insects, is he willing to go into the mountains?"
Sister Sun said, "Brother Mao has been watching Elder Dong play with those insects all day long, he is probably used to it."
Ye Xiaotian nodded, "That's true, after getting used to it, he naturally won't be afraid anymore." Ye Xiaotian was currently wiping his face with a towel, and did not see Sister Sun sticking out her tongue mischievously.
Actually, it is easy to change mountains and rivers, but difficult to change a person's nature. How could Old Mao's gluttonous, lazy, and insect-fearing nature be changed so easily? Hua Yunfei was worried about Elder Dong's gaze, so he went up the mountain alone, and volunteered to accompany him. Mao Wenzhi was too lazy to go with him, so he was sitting on a deck chair in the garden, basking in the sun.
Sister Sun walked over, accompanied by the melodious sound of silver bells, and said, "Brother Mao, Elder Dong is going up the mountain, are you not going?"
Mao Wenzhi was drowsy from the warm sun, so he yawned and said lazily, "Who wants to go up the mountain with that old man? It's practically a living hell. I'm not going, I'm just going to help you look after the house …"
Sister Sun played with the ends of her hair, and with her beautiful eyes, she asked softly, "Brother Mao, are you really not going?"
Mao Wenzhi, who had always been slow, suddenly had a sharp sixth sense. He opened his eyes and saw Sister Sun smiling sweetly, and her large eyes blinking charmingly. For some reason, a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the tips of his hair.
Sister Sun smiled sweetly, "If brother Mao doesn't want to go, then don't go. The kitchen just bought some salted fish, and I want to fry some for brother Little Tian. Can I trouble brother Mao to fetch them?"
"No!"
As soon as Mao Wenzhi heard the word 'salted fish', he jumped up reflexively, and cried out strangely, "I want to go up the mountain! I want to go up the mountain! I'm going up the mountain right now! Elder Dong, wait for me … "Mao Wenzhi looked like he was being chased by a fierce dog. He cried out as he chased after Dong Xuebing and Hua Yunfei.
Although the insects were scary, and climbing the mountain was hard, how could it be compared to Sister Sun? Mao Wenzhi was afraid of Sister Sun to the bone.
Naturally, Ye Xiaotian didn't know about this story. When he heard that Mao Wenzhi had become more diligent, he was quite happy. He washed his face, handed the towel to Sister Sun, and said with a smile, "I'm going to see Yaoyao. It's good that she's studious, but she's still young, so there's no need to work too hard. We don't expect her to be the top scorer."
Sister Sun said sweetly, "Okay! Then I'll prepare dinner for you. It'll be ready in a while. "
When Ye Xiaotian walked into the study, he saw Yaoyao leaning over the table, writing stroke by stroke.
Yaoyao's birthday was a big one, and she was now seven years old. In the south, many girls from ordinary families got married at the age of twelve or thirteen. At seven or eight years old, they were already considered middle-aged girls. However, although Yaoyao was clever and intelligent, her body was petite, and she looked younger than her actual age.
It was difficult for her to lean over the table and write on the chair, so she put two cushions under her buttocks. A little girl with her hair combed into a bun was holding a brush that was even bigger than her palm-sized snow-white face. She was writing stroke by stroke, and she looked especially innocent and cute.
When Ye Xiaotian saw this, a fatherly and brotherly warmth surged in his heart. Ever since he brought her out of the Yang family in Jingzhou, they had been living together day and night for almost two years. They depended on each other for survival, and Ye Xiaotian had already treated her as his own family. He walked over with light footsteps, and all the way to Yaoyao's side, the focused Yaoyao did not notice him.
Ye Xiaotian held his breath as he watched her seriously write stroke by stroke. Only when she finished writing did he chuckle and say, "My Yaoyao is so obedient, writing so seriously. Alright, you can't become fat in one bite. It's the same for learning to read. Let's stop here for today. Don't tire your eyes out. "
"Brother Xiaotian!" Only then did Yaoyao realize that Ye Xiaotian was right beside her. She jumped happily and slid down from the chair to the ground. She threw herself at Ye Xiaotian, and was caught by Ye Xiaotian with familiarity.
"Brother Xiaotian, when did you come back?" Yaoyao hugged Ye Xiaotian's neck and said happily.
Ye Xiaotian said, "It's been a while. Seeing that my Yaoyao is so serious, I didn't dare to disturb you."
Yaoyao was embarrassed by his praise, and she shyly stuck out her tongue. Ye Xiaotian carried her out and said, "Let's go, let's go eat. Yaoyao, big brother just hopes that you can read and become a well-educated and reasonable girl when you grow up. It's not like I'm counting on you to become the top scholar, so you don't have to work so hard. "
"How can that be? If I want to study, I have to study well!" Yaoyao answered in a childish voice. Ye Xiaotian was happy when he heard this, but he did not understand the little girl's thoughts.
It turned out that Yaoyao had learned some words from Shuiwu, but the teacher didn't know this. At the beginning, when she was teaching her some simple words, Yaoyao could write them after reading it once. The teacher was very happy, and he praised this child to be exceptionally intelligent and a child prodigy.
This praise made the little girl very happy, but it also became a pressure for her. Later, the number of words she was taught became more and more complicated. There were some words that she had never learned before. In order not to let the teacher down, she worked very hard and reviewed them over and over again, making sure that she could remember them when the teacher taught the next day.
In the teacher's eyes, she was his best disciple. Unfortunately, she was a woman. Even if she was a scholar, she couldn't become an official, which was a pity. But for Yaoyao, she had put in a lot of effort and hard work in private.
"Yaoyao, wash your hands and let's eat."
Ye Xiaotian carried Yaoyao to the reception hall. Sister Sun had already arranged a table full of dishes and was distributing the bowls and chopsticks. Yaoyao responded crisply and slid down from Ye Xiaotian's arms to the ground. She ran to the basin and cleverly washed her hands.
The three of them sat down. Ye Xiaotian smelled a strong fragrance. He followed the fragrance and smiled, "Stewed soup again. I'm used to it now. It's really fragrant. These days, I'm always full of energy. Yaoyao, don't be picky. Drink a bowl tonight. "
"Don't …"
Sister Sun hurriedly stopped him. When she saw Ye Xiaotian's strange expression, she hurriedly explained, "Oh … this soup … this soup has a lot of secret Chinese medicine. It's best for men to nourish themselves. Ladies shouldn't drink it. Otherwise, the hairs on your lips will grow heavier and look like a mustache."
Yaoyao didn't like soup to begin with. When she heard that she would grow a mustache, how ugly would that be? She hurriedly shook her head like a rattle. Ye Xiaotian said in relief, "So that's how it is. Men and women nourish themselves differently. Then I'll drink it alone. "
Ye Xiaotian first took a piece of meat from the soup and bit into it. He praised, "It's hard on you. Every time I stew soup, I buy meat that's chewy and not dry. It's much better than stewed meat." As he said that, Ye Xiaotian lifted the bowl and drank a big mouthful of soup.
When Little Sister Sun saw this, her eyes were smiling and curved like two fish hooks. It was as if a big fish was shaking its head and wagging its tail, about to take the bait. Her smile was so sweet …
