15. Peach essence
Ji Cheng instinctively wanted to dodge, but he changed his mind in an instant, and he was forced to take a dried date, not to mention, it really hurt a little.
The four- or five-year-old boy above his head laughed out loud, "You're so stupid." ”
"Who are you, why are you here alone so late?" Ji Cheng raised his head and glared at the triumphant child in front of him.
The little boy's eyes rolled several times, and he said arrogantly: "My grandmother is guarding the garden, let me sit here and wait for her to watch the night." ”
Ji Cheng held back the smile in his heart, and did not puncture the little boy's self-made cleverness. The underwear made of Songjiang Sansuo cloth, the muslin cloth of one hundred taels of silver, can it be made by the grandmother who guards the garden?
The Ji family has a cloth business, and Ji Cheng has long trained the sharp eye of a businessman, and he recognized it at a glance, otherwise he wouldn't have stood still and eaten a date just now.
"Aren't you alone afraid of mountain spirits and ghosts?" Ji Cheng looked around as he spoke, then lifted his skirt, took two steps back, jumped onto the thigh-high rocks raised in front of him, and without hesitation, he borrowed his strength and twisted his body without hesitation, and completed the difficult task of "sitting on the wall" with a relaxed and freehand movement.
Shen Hong looked at the beautiful sister in front of him dumbfounded, and looked at the person who could be blown by a gust of wind, and actually jumped on the wall easily.
Ji Cheng clapped his hands, slapped off the dust that was stained by his hands on the wall just now, and then swayed his legs like Shen Hong and said, "I heard that ghosts don't touch the ground with their heels when they walk, did you see my heels touching the ground just now?" ”
Ji Cheng looked at Shen Hong with a smile.
Shen Hong shuddered for a moment, but still looked at Ji Cheng calmly.
"Would you like to see my feet?" Ji Cheng lowered his voice and said to Shen Hong in a distant and ethereal voice.
Shen Hong only felt that the hairs on his back stood up, and the voice of the person in front of him sounded like a goblin. Looking at her face again, it's indescribably beautiful, it's beautiful anyway, it's just beautiful, and her face is so white. But it wasn't the ghost's miserable whiteness, it was pretty white, like the white of the egg whites he ate in the morning.
Such a beautiful person really doesn't seem to be real. Looking at her hair again, it is also different from the sisters Shen Hong sees on weekdays, her hair is a little messy, she doesn't comb her hair, she only ties it with a ribbon behind her head, and the hair around her ears is messy.
Her clothes were also wrong, and she was loosely dressed.
Ji Cheng went out just to empty his mind, thinking that he would go back soon, so he didn't tidy up his clothes, he still just wrapped a robe and tied a belt casually, and there was only a bandeau and pants in it.
In Shen Hong's eyes, the beautiful sister in front of him, who was as white as the moon in the sky, felt weird no matter how he looked at it, but for some reason, he didn't feel too scared, and he only remembered that she was so beautiful.
Originally, the children's memories were not very good, and they might not remember what happened when they were four or five years old when they grew up, but Ji Cheng's appearance tonight was remembered by Shen Hong for a lifetime for some reason. I remember her slightly open placket, and the beautiful bones peeking out of the neckline, and her rare curved eyelashes.
"Are you a vixen?" Shen Hong asked curiously, in the stories that the nurse told him, the fox spirit was always the most beautiful goblin.
Uh, the fox spirit is not a good reputation, and Ji Cheng naturally does not want to leave the impression of the fox spirit in the heart of Shen Hong, the future eldest son of the second room. As for why she can know that this child is Shen Hong, it is not difficult, the second son of the big room has not yet married, and the third room has no children, only Shen Hong in the second room and the age of the little boy match.
"Foxes are born with fox odor, you come to smell me, I have fox odor." Ji Cheng raised his arm with a gesture.
Shen Hong was really bold, so he actually went up and smelled it, "Incense!" It smells so good! Then you're not a vixen. ”
"Naturally, a few years ago, I personally hunted a fire fox and made a scarf. Its fur is shiny and shiny, smooth and warm to the touch. Ji Cheng said.
"The second uncle said that when I grow taller, he will take me to hunt." Shen Hong couldn't help but say when he watched Ji Cheng show off his hunting. At the end, he asked, "Then you are a flower essence?" ”
Ji Cheng leaned over his face to tease Shen Hong and said, "I'm so smart, then guess what kind of flower I am?" ”
Shen Hong thought about it, and really couldn't think of what kind of flower she smelled like, but he quickly said an answer, "I know, you are a fruit essence." It's delicious when you smell it. Although Shen Hong couldn't tell what the fragrance was on Ji Cheng's body, he swallowed his saliva when he smelled it, and thought it was delicious, "It's a little peachy." ”
Sure enough, it was a child, so I wanted to eat. Ji Cheng raised his hands, made a claw grabbing motion, and said in a rough voice: "Since you see my true body, then don't blame me for eating you." ”
Shen Hong was taken aback, but he didn't flinch, but said stiffly: "My father said, evil is invincible, I'm not afraid of you, the peach essence." ”
"Your dad is quite knowledgeable." Ji Cheng put down his hand and resumed his normal tone, "What is he doing?" It's the one who drives the carriage, so knowledgeable. ”
Shen Hong wanted to refute, but thinking of what he had started to deceive, he endured it again, and only pouted, "That's not right." ”
"That's the gatekeeper?"
"That's not right."
Ji Cheng guessed several times that it was wrong, and finally smiled: "It can't be the night incense, right?" After that, she couldn't help but eat and laugh at first, and it was really funny to associate the eldest son of the Shen family with the incense of the night.
"I'm not playing with you anymore, huh." No matter how much Shen Hong wants to pretend to be an adult, he can't stand Ji Cheng making fun of his father.
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to tease you. What are you doing sitting on the wall so late with a child? Ji Cheng was indeed a little curious.
Shen Hong shook his head vigorously, meaning that he didn't want to pay attention to Ji Cheng.
"You sue me, okay?" Ji Cheng coaxed softly.
"I won't sue you." Shen Hong's crisp voice looked very arrogant.
"If you sue me, I'll go and tell my sister Apricot and Sister Plum that you can come out to play in the future, so that they don't scare you, how about it?" Ji Cheng said.
Shen Hong thought for a while, then turned his head, sighed heavily, looked at the moon in the sky and said, "I'm here to see my mother." My mother went to heaven, and I thought that if I climbed higher, I might be able to see her palace in heaven. ”
Ji Cheng was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Shen Hong to think like this in his heart, looking at him, he was really a pitiful little guy.
Ji Cheng accidentally looked down and saw that there were lights flashing in the forest, probably to look for Shen Hong, Shen Hong also found out, so he wanted to escape, Ji Cheng took his hand and said: "What kind of high place is this, if you have a chance next time, my sister will take you to a really high place, how about it?" ”
"Your hands are warm, you're not a youkai." Shen Hong's answer was not authentic.
"What a clever ghost." Ji Cheng rubbed Shen Hong's head, "You go back quickly, otherwise the people who serve you will be punished, and they may be sold." ”
"Do you know who I am?" Shen Hong's eyes widened in surprise.
Ji Cheng smiled and pulled the underwear in Shen Hong's robe, "If you want to deceive people next time, don't wear this kind of underwear made of three-shuttle cloth again." As Ji Cheng spoke, he jumped down and stood up easily.
When Shen Hong saw that she was leaving, he was a little anxious, "Sister, what's your name, didn't you say that you were going to take me to a really high place?" How am I looking for you? ”
"When the moon is full on the fifteenth day of April, I will be able to transform again, and if you can avoid the eyes of the nurses, we will see you here at night." Ji Cheng said with a smile.
"Okay, we'll make up our minds." Shen Hong now has a little secret in his heart, not to mention how happy he is.
"Go back quickly, someone finds out, and it will be difficult for you to come out next time." After Ji Cheng finished speaking, he walked down the mountain without looking back.
Shen Hong thought to himself, haven't I already been discovered? But he didn't know until a while, and when Lanxiang, the girl who was on duty tonight, found out that he was missing, she didn't dare to make a noise at all, and only came to the garden with a lantern to find him.
Shen Hong threatened Lan Xiang and said, "You are not allowed to tell anyone about tonight, otherwise if your grandmother knows that you have lost me, she will definitely sell your whole family." ”
Lan Xiang was in a hurry, where did she dare to speak out, if it was known that she had lost this little ancestor, her skin would be ripped off.
But said that Liu Ye'er was hidden by the wall, and when she saw Ji Cheng walking back, she hurriedly carried a lantern to greet her, she also knew that Ji Cheng was under a lot of pressure, and she had been under pressure for so many days, and she didn't even touch the side of her relatives, so she only didn't speak and quietly led the way in front.
It wasn't until the next day that Liu Ye'er couldn't help but ask Ji Cheng, "Girl, whose family is that kid sitting on the wall last night?" Why did you slip away and disappear? ”
Ji Cheng looked at Liu Ye'er and couldn't help laughing, "You don't think it's a ghost doll, right?" ”
"Girl!" It's rare that people like Liu Yeer can't help but stomp their feet.
Ji Cheng laughed louder and louder, and she really expected it. When she stopped, she explained: "It's Brother Hong in the second room." ”
"Ah, how could it be him? It's so late that a person sits so high, and he's not afraid of falling? Liu Ye'er exclaimed.
Ji Cheng remembered Brother Hong'er's words and was silent for a moment, "Children also have children's thoughts." ”
And Ji Cheng's heart is naturally more. However, it was only the first day of April, and Wang Siniang's invitation was sent to the Shen Mansion. Shen Cui took the post from Ji Lan's hand and looked at it with a smile and said, "Wang Siniang is just particular, and she will give us separate posts." The header in her hand only had Shen Cui's name written on it.
"Mother, where's Cousin Cheng's post?" Shen Cui asked innocently.
