Ji Xiaoshu got up early in the morning and while getting dressed, he mentioned what happened last night, "First, we can let Sheng Yue test the medicine starting from today. Second, we agreed to Sheng Yue and invited Ashin and A Le to come over. Third, Da
Senior brother, you promised him that you would persuade Aunt Yan to like him."
Zheng'er nodded, "And today we have to practice the sword skills we just learned last night."
"Others are fine. Senior brother, if you really try to persuade Aunt Yan to like Sheng Yue, she might get beaten." Ji Xiaoshu chuckled, "Aunt Yan has a bad temper, and she doesn't like to hear this the most."
Zheng'er sighed slightly, "If you make a promise, you must do it, and I mean it sincerely."
Ji Xiaoshu raised his eyebrows, "Eldest brother, do you now think that Sheng Yue and Aunt Yan may really become a loving couple? That's not what you said before."
"I didn't look good on their affairs before." Zheng'er nodded, "But since they insist on getting married, of course I still hope that they can stay together. As for whether my hope can be realized, I don't know."
When having breakfast, Sheng Yue and Yan Shiba did not pick up each other's food as they did at yesterday's dinner. Instead, they acted as if they didn't know each other and ate their own food without even making eye contact.
Everyone can see clearly: As long as Yan Shiba provokes Sheng Yue, he will definitely accept the move. But if Yan Shiba doesn't take the initiative, Sheng Yue will ignore her.
In this way, everything is peaceful and harmonious.
After breakfast, Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu went to Feng Ming and said that they were going to Peng's house.
Feng Ming had only been there yesterday, but of course he didn't mind going again today, so he went out with his two children.
On the way, Zheng'er asked Feng Ming, "Uncle Feng, would Aunt Peng be unhappy if she knew that Sheng Yue had come to the capital and stayed at our house?"
Feng Ming shook his head, "No. We have discussed this matter before." Peng Wu knew what Sheng Yue had done before and that he would come to the capital after finishing his work. She told Feng Ming
However, her enemy was not Sheng Yue, and it was Sheng Yue who helped her take revenge, and even sent the man who hurt her to the capital alive, so that she could have the opportunity to kill her enemy with her own hands.
The only direct intersection and enmity between Peng Wu and Sheng Yue when they were on Xingluo Island was when Sheng Yue took away her two children when she needed hostages, resulting in the separation of mother and child. She suffered a lot during that time.
torment.
But judging from the results, it is not a bad thing. The children were not harmed, not even frightened. Both Ashin and Ale said that Sheng Yue had not abused them, nor starved or cold, nor even told them
Too harsh words. And Sheng Yue's behavior directly caused Peng Wu and the two children to be left behind when the Zhong family fled from Xingluo Island. The children had no choice. Peng Wu chose it herself, and of course she didn't.
regret.
Although even if Sheng Yue did not arrest Asin and Ale that time, Peng Wu and his children were taken away by the Zhong family, and Gu Ling and Su Liang would still find their mother and son after they solved the problem on Xingluo Island, but Peng Wu could not guarantee that they would be found.
During that period, would she do something to escape, or would the man kill her to avoid future troubles?
In any case, it was Sheng Yue's bad behavior that enabled Peng Wu and his children to escape from the clutches of the Zhong family earlier, be rescued earlier, and return to the capital to reunite with their relatives earlier.
And one thing is that Sheng Yue said it, and Peng Wu didn't doubt it. Sheng Yue knew her origins and knew that the Peng family had a close relationship with Gu Ling and Su Liang, so he chose her child, even knowing that she would never
He would leave the child behind, and it was even more certain that Gu Ling would definitely save their mother and child.
Therefore, Peng Wu said that she did not hate Sheng Yue, and as long as Gu Ling and Su Liang recognized him, Peng Wu had no objection.
"That's okay." Zheng'er said it was because Sheng Yue wanted to meet A Xin and A Le, so they went to Peng's house.
Feng Ming was a little surprised, but then he smiled again, "I believe you will handle it well." The emotional intelligence of these two children is higher than that of many adults, and the fate between Feng Ming and Peng Wu is the thread between them.
When they arrived at the Peng Mansion, Ashin and A Le were very happy when they heard that they were invited to play in the Su Mansion. They liked playing in the Su Mansion the most, and they also liked playing with Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu the most.
Feng Ming briefly told Peng Wu about Sheng Yue's arrival in the capital yesterday. Peng Wu smiled and said, "I understand, let them go." Now she is not worried about the safety of her children at all.
…
Ashin and Ale followed Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu and ran into Shengyue's yard.
Sheng Yue was sitting by the window reading a book, which he borrowed from Su Liang after breakfast. At that time, Su Liang asked Sheng Yue what type of book he wanted to read, and Sheng Yue asked Su Liang to help pick one.
Ji Xiaoshu tiptoed through the window and took a look, and asked curiously, ""Cherish Flowers"? What kind of book is this? Does it talk about growing flowers and plants?"
Sheng Yue closed the book in his hand and stood up, "It's a book of stories about love and romance. It's not suitable for you children to read."
Ji Xiaoshu laughed loudly, "Are you actually watching this? Do you want to learn how to get along with Aunt Yan?"
Sheng Yue shook his head slightly, opened the door and walked out, "It's not that I want to learn. I asked your master's wife to borrow a book and she gave it to me. I thought she would give me a Buddhist scripture or a medical book."
Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu were overjoyed when they heard this. Suddenly, they felt that Sheng Yue sometimes spoke with a touch of Gu Ling's cold humor and seriousness, but it just made people want to laugh.
Ashin and Ale both frowned after seeing Sheng Yue. Peng Wu had never told the children that Sheng Yue had changed his ways, because before today, she didn't know whether Sheng Yue would really come to the capital.
"You have grown taller." Sheng Yue looked at Ashin and Ah Le and said.
Ashin pulled Zheng'er's sleeve. He could see that Zheng'er, Ji Xiaoshu and Sheng Yue had a good relationship, but he didn't know how to react. After all, the last time they met was in that dark cave.
"Uncle Sheng is not a bad person. Your mother knew that you were coming, she knew that Uncle Sheng was here, and Uncle Feng knew even better, and she didn't even stop you. It's okay." Zheng'er said with a smile.
"Oh." Ashin nodded, and Ah Le poked his head from behind Ji Xiaoshu, met Sheng Yue's eyes, and retracted his little head.
"Actually, I want to apologize to you today." Sheng Yue said to Ashin and Ah Le, "No matter what my purpose was at that time, I did something that I'm sorry for you. I hope you can forgive me."
A Le asked Ji Xiaoshu in a low voice, "Brother Xiaoshu, can we forgive him?"
Ji Xiaoshu shook his head, "Of course not, how can it be so easy to forgive? An apology needs to be sincere!"
Zheng'er smiled, "Yes. Uncle Sheng, you have to express your gratitude."
Sheng Yue nodded, "Okay. But I don't have anything now, and I don't know how to express it."
"This is not difficult!" Ji Xiaoshu quickly gave a suggestion, "Go to Wangxiang Mountain, catch some game, and roast it for us to eat! If it is delicious, Ashin and Ale will forgive you!"
Ashin couldn't help but laugh, and Ah Le nodded repeatedly, "Brother Xiaoshu is right! I want to eat roast chicken!"
Sheng Yue actually wanted to ask Ji Xiaoshu, did he want to eat it? But he decided not to ask. Ji Xiaoshu was helping him, so it was better not to get into trouble. His relationship with the children was not yet to the point where he could joke freely.
So Sheng Yue went out alone to hunt in Wangxiang Mountain.
…
Yan Shiba found Su Liang and asked Mo Yan if he could die. "Now that things have happened, there is no need to keep him, right? It's just a waste of food."
Su Liang nodded, "If you don't tell me, I will forget about him. If you want to take action, just send him on his way."
"So casual?" Yan Shiba lost interest when he heard this, "There's no point in killing him anymore."
"It makes sense to save food." Su Liang said.
Yan Shiba snorted, "That's not easy, just starve him to death!"
"That's fine. When Sheng Yue comes back, you can discuss it with him. He may have an idea about how Mo Yan should die," Su Liang said.
Yan Shiba rolled his eyes, "Why should I discuss it with him? Who is he? Why does he have ideas?"
Su Liang smiled half-heartedly, "Who insists on marrying him?"
"Two different things!" Yan Shiba shook his head, "By the way, where did he go?"
"Xiaoshu said that Sheng Yue went hunting in Wangxiang Mountain because they wanted to eat game." Su Liang said.
Yan Shiba sneered, "He is really trying his best to please the children! Be careful if he abducts the children one day!"
"I'm really not worried about this." Su Liang said, "If he wants to abduct someone, the only possibility is you."
Yan Shiba sneered, "Do you really think he might fall in love with me? That would be great. Then I will make him kneel on the ground and sing Conquer until his throat is hoarse! Hahahaha!"
Su Liang: ...To be honest, she thinks it is more likely that Yan Shiba will be conquered by Sheng Yue first. She dare not say it, otherwise Yan Shiba will definitely fall out.
…
When Sheng Yue came back from outside, he carried a large basket on his back, which was full of game. Four pheasants and four hares were very fat and had been slaughtered and processed.
As soon as I got to the lake and took it out, Yan Shiba's strange voice came from behind, "Hey! Could it be that I bought it from a restaurant?"
Four children gathered around, and Sheng Yue didn't look back at Yan Shiba, "Yes, I bought it from a restaurant."
Yan Shiba was choked up and shook his fist angrily.
The children were very happy and looked forward to eating barbecue. Although they agreed to let Sheng Yue bake it for them, they were all very interested in getting started on their own.
Soon, Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu asked Zhu Zan to help move out the barbecue rack made by Gu Ling and put it in the best sunny position by the lake.
"Master's wife, we need spices!" Ji Xiaoshu shouted from below.
Wen Ran came over with a plate and smiled, "Here we come." Cheng Yun followed her, his eyes falling on Sheng Yue with a faint look.
The lakeside quickly became lively. Seeing that the children wanted to have a barbecue, Qiu Cong, Lao Bai, Lao Mu, and Wen Ming all took out their own fishing gear and prepared them in a row. They said they wanted to fish and barbecue, and also agreed, who would be the first to eat?
Once you catch a fish, you can take Nuan Nuan out to play in the afternoon.
Under the direction of the children, Sheng Yue lit a fire, skewered the pheasants and rabbits whole, and hung them on the grill.
Wen Ran was helping, and Cheng Yun also took action. Now he has completely accepted this kind of thing, and even learned to kill chickens and fish.
Wen Ran turned around and saw Yan Shiba standing not far away with a frown, and quickly called to her, "Sister Yan, come here and help! Otherwise, there will be no chicken legs to eat later!"
Yan Shiba then slowly walked over, pushed Sheng Yue away, stood in his position, and hummed, "I don't know anything, so just stand aside and watch! Let me show you what a professional technique is!"
"
The next moment, Yan Shiba started to show off her oil brushing skills. She had done it before and was much more skillful than Sheng Yue.
However, maybe he was too focused on showing off and not serious enough. As Yan Shiba was brushing, the oil bottle in his hand slipped, fell to the ground and broke...
This was made by Gu Ling specifically for brushing oil on barbecues. It came with several small brushes, so it didn't delay things, but because of what he had just said, Yan Shiba was a little embarrassed at the moment.
"Safe to pieces!" Nuan Xin Zheng'er quickly smoothed things over, "I'll get another one!"
Sheng Yue followed Zheng'er away.
Yan Shiba clenched his fist and hit his head, "I was so angry when I saw that bitch!"
Wen Ran complained, "Then you still have to marry him!"
Chengyun seized the opportunity and asked, "Do you want to regret your marriage?"
Yan Shiba shook his head, "Impossible! If he regrets his marriage, he will regret it too. I'm afraid of a ghost!"
Ji Xiaoshu: ...Being angry is really what Aunt Yan is good at. The cause of the matter was obviously betting on whether Sheng Yue dared to marry her, but now he actually started betting on whether Sheng Yue dared not to marry her? What an adult's feelings.
Too tortuous.
Zheng'er came back with an oil can, and Sheng Yue held a broom and dustpan in his hand to clean up the garbage caused by Yan Shiba.
Yan Shiba's face turned a little dark, and he reached out and snatched the broom away, "I can clean up myself, I don't need you to pretend to be a good person!"
Sheng Yue looked indifferent, and Yan Shiba asked for it, so he gave it to her, "I'm just afraid that the child will step on broken porcelain and hurt his foot, so I'm not helping you."
"Tell me, do you feel embarrassed?" Yan Shiba asked back.
Sheng Yue nodded, "Yes, I'm helping you."
Yan Shiba:...I really want to slap the broom in my hand onto Sheng Yue’s face! I’m so angry!
Wen Ran and Cheng Yun looked at each other, both speechless. Yan Shiba had been thinking about how to treat Sheng Yue, but it was obvious that Sheng Yue knew how to treat her very well.
The aroma of barbecue emitted, and the children were running around chasing and playing. Qiu Cong suddenly stood up and laughed, "I caught a fish!" He lifted the fishing rod and a big carp rose up from the water swaying
, sparkling in the sun, and then the children rushed over and cheered.
Wen Ran and Cheng Yun bumped into each other's arms and looked at each other with a smile. Sheng Yue was seriously spreading spices on the barbecue. Yan Shiba was standing behind him, glaring at him seriously and raising his hand to hit him from the air. His fist was about to fall on Sheng Yue.
Then he took it back...
Su Liang and Gu Ling were holding Gu Xiaonuan and standing by the second floor window looking down. Gu Xiaonuan was holding a big red Chinese knot in his arms. Gu Ling had just made it and wanted to give it to Wen Ran and Cheng Yun as a wedding gift.
one.
Gu Xiaonuan smiled and shook the Chinese knot in her hand, then disappeared.
"That's not for you." Su Liang pinched Gu Xiaonuan's nose.
Gu Ling smiled lightly, "Nuan Nuan wants to play, I'll just make another one."
Gu Xiaonuan pointed down, "Look for brother!"
Gu Ling held Su Liang in one hand and Gu Xiaonuan in the other, and flew down from the second floor, just in time to eat barbecue.
Meanwhile, Sheng Yue was killing the fish Qiu Cong had just caught by the lake. Although he only had one hand, he had already gotten used to it. The other half of his arm was also very flexible and could be used as an assistant without affecting his work.
Yan Shiba walked quietly behind Sheng Yue, raised his foot, and made a motion to kick him into the water.
In fact, it was just for fun, and Yan Shiba had no intention of actually kicking him. After all, the children were all here. If she was wronged, it would help Sheng Yue win sympathy, which was not cost-effective.
As a result, before Yan Shiba could retract her legs, she suddenly felt someone pushing her from behind, and her body rushed towards Sheng Yue uncontrollably.
Sheng Yue had long known that someone was approaching, and he knew it was Yan Shiba without having to guess, so he quickly hid aside with the fish he had just killed...
So, with a plop, Yan Shiba fell into the water.
Ji Xiaoshu, who got into trouble, quickly shouted, "Uncle Sheng, save Aunt Yan quickly, she can't swim!"
Sheng Yue: ...He watched Mo Yan force Yan Shiba into the water several times.
The next moment, Yan Shiba emerged from the water, coughed twice, wiped the water on his face, and did not ask anyone who pushed her. He stretched out his hand and pointed at Sheng Yue on the shore, with a faint look in his eyes.
Excitedly, "If you dare, come down and we'll have a showdown in the water!"
Su Liang held her forehead, "It actually gave her new inspiration, thinking of a possible way to defeat Sheng Yue." After all, Yan Shiba once practiced in the forbidden area of Moyan...
Zheng'er urged Yan Shiba to come up quickly, "Aunt Yan, come up and eat some meat!"
Yan Shiba shook his head, "Save a chicken leg for me! Bitch, come down here! If you don't dare, tell me you surrender in front of everyone!"
Wen Ran distributed the meat to the children, while shaking his head helplessly, "Forget it, I see she is having a lot of fun, let her go, it's really not boring now."
Sheng Yue handed the fish to Chengyun, turned around and walked towards the lake, "Okay. It's better than holding your breath, right? I'll accompany you."
So, each of the children held up a big chicken leg that was grilled to a crisp and fragrant. The old people who were fishing also put down their fishing rods and came over to eat the meat. Everyone watched Sheng Yue go into the water, and Yan Shiba was three meters away from him in the lake.
A new round of competition.
It was Gu Xiaonuan who gave the order. Although she didn’t know what these weird uncles and aunts were going to do, under Gu Ling’s instructions, she raised her little hand, put it down again, and said with a smile, “Let’s get started!”
Sheng Yue and Yan Shiba dived into the water at the same time. Whoever comes forward first will lose.
In previous martial arts competitions and marriages out of anger, everyone felt that Yan Shiba had no chance of winning, but the outcome this time was hard to say.
Ji Xiaoshu took a bite of the chicken leg and turned to ask Su Liang, "Master's wife, Aunt Yan just wants to win. If she wins this time, will they not get married?"
Su Liang chuckled, "It's hard to say. They didn't say whoever loses will cancel the engagement."
"Yes." Ji Xiaoshu nodded, "Then let's get married. Now I think they are a perfect match. It would be great to compete every day and make progress together!"
