Chapter Ninety-Six: Pain and Sin
Grandma Du and Du Niang stood at the door of the hall with the whole family a little restrained. The noblest person their family has ever received is Master Joy, but Master Joy is the master of children, and he is kind and kind, and he doesn't have any arrogance, and they don't feel much uncomfortable. But the group of people in front of them, followed by the girls holding gifts, are more decent than Du Xiaoxi, who is the best dressed in the family. Although the other party had a smile on his face and did not look down on them in the slightest, probably because the gap was too big, it would make people look up unconsciously, and it was difficult to treat them as ordinary juniors.
After a few simple words, Grandma Du took her great-grandson back to her room, and Du Niang took her daughter-in-law to the kitchen, Ma Hongmei wanted to stay and listen to what they had to say, but she pouted and followed Du Niang out of the door with Shangshang Mingrui's cold eyes.
"How is Senior Sister feeling? I heard that my senior sister was sick, and Xiao Rui and I were worried for a long time. Speaking of which, I still thank my sister for saving me that day. Shang Minglan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with calling a child younger than herself, her pale and delicate smile was full of gratitude, and her eyes seemed to be overflowing with tears.
"Ahh It's okay! It's okay! Du Xiaoxi was quite arrogant and straightened his small chest, and then scratched his head embarrassedly and asked, "What happened after that day?" I fainted and didn't know it. β
Shang Mingrui's favorability towards Du Xiaoxi rose because Du Xiaoxi saved his sister, and he couldn't care about the peanuts in his mouth when he heard Du Xiaoxi ask: "You were scared, so I dragged you under the table and hid." Ay! We hid and didn't see the Wind and Fire Meteor Hammer in your village. Everyone who saw it said they were angry! Several rows of fire rings directly covered the back tightly, and not a single arrow could fly through. It's a pity I didn't see it at the time! β
Speaking of the Wind and Fire Meteor Hammer Du Xiaoxi was the happiest, after all, it was something she proposed, but this thing still caused such a big sensation, I really couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Since the second brother played a shocking handsome game at the banquet, the Wind and Fire Meteor Hammer quickly swept Shanshui County, and the blacksmith shop was blocked and couldn't get out.
Later, the county order saw that many people ordered the meteor hammer of copper wool and iron wool to feel that it was not a waste, and directly ordered that they could only use the cage to play with charcoal, and who would waste copper and iron things. Penalize! Penalize! Penalize!
In any case, the Wind and Fire Meteor Hammer has become completely popular in Shanshui County, and it has quickly spread to various places.
Shang Minglan looked at her younger brother who was chattering excitedly with Du Xiaoxi with a smile, her eyes were full of soft light, and she helped hand over a few pastries to Shang Mingrui from time to time. After a few times, Du Xiaoxi can be sure that the reason why An Xiaowang is so fat is that he was fed by his biological sister!
"I was going to see you a few days ago, but Uncle Huang said that it was not safe outside, and we would not let the detainees come out. Today, Xiao Rui begged for a long time to come out. Uncle Huang said that we were going back to Beijing soon. Let me come and see you, I thought I hadn't seen Master for a long time, so let's go together, okay? Seeing that Du Xiaoxi didn't know what to say, his younger brother, a foodie, was about to drool, so he hurriedly interrupted Du Xiaoxi's description of the food.
Go to see Master?
Anyway, the master is just like the eldest aunt, there are always a few days every month. Immediately responded: "Okay! β
In other words, since the emperor is leaving, will his senior brother Ning Jing also leave?
Since he broke his identity as a prince for the Empress Dowager's birthday, he has been staying in the capital, that is, the emperor wants to come to see the mountains and waterways, and Tranquility has been the first batch of pioneers, coming three months earlier than others.
To be honest, I still like this senior brother who likes a cold face and is taciturn. At first, it was because the master asked her to be cheeky to pester her brother to talk, but then both of them got used to it, and one was used to having someone around him chattering, and he wanted to kick him to death! A person is used to talking to himself, and the other party does not forget to leave her a copy if he has anything delicious.
It's just to raise a dog, and it's been cooked in four years.
Although the way the two get along in the past four years is different from Du Xiaoxi's treatment of the brothers at home, the tacit understanding that they are used to is slowly forming, even if they haven't seen each other in the past three years, Du Xiaoxi still thinks of the senior brother who often sits on the edge of the bed and meditates out the window.
Du Xiaoxi heard the master talk about the ambition and ability of the senior brother, and knew that he would not follow the master obediently to be a fake monk for the rest of his life. He wants to return to his battlefield and achieve final victory.
Although destined to leave, Du Xiaoxi still wanted to say goodbye to his senior brother, instead of going back to his own house like the last time he went to Kyoto.
After the sister and brother of Minglan County said goodbye and left. Du Xiaoxi was then taken by Daddy Du to participate in devil training.
It hurts and hurts!
The next day, Du Xiaoxi had breakfast slowly, carrying a basket of melons personally selected by Grandma Du and riding in the carriage sent by the lord of Minglan towards Xile Temple. Seeing the two people who were already waiting at the foot of the mountain, the three of them walked towards the back of the valley together.
In the scorching heat of July, the valley locked by the Master of Joy was cool, and the breeze passed through the fruit groves that covered the mountains. A faint fruity aroma makes people can't help but search for the fragrance of the fruit essence, and people can't help but want to eat it.
Master Joy has finished his morning class and is diligently inspecting the pomegranate trees every day. Seeing the three of them coming, they signaled to play casually, and then cut off the pomegranates that were too dense and did not grow well, leaving only the largest one.
Du Xiaoxi often came and took the two of them along the stone road towards the distance, and asked as he walked: "This valley is full of fruit trees, there are more than a dozen kinds of apples, pears, citrus, and dates, I will take you to pick some of what you like to eat." β
As a royal family, as a favored county lord, all good things are sent directly to them, and it is the first time for the two of them to see this kind of water ghost growing on a tree, and they are a little excited to look left and right, and listen to Du Xiaoxi ask Qi Qi replied
Shang Minglan: "Apple! β
Shang Mingrui: "Peach! β
Shang Mingrui knew that his sister would say his favorite apple, so he hurriedly said, "Let's go pick peaches first, and then pick apples." β
Seeing Shang Minglan's posture of not following and having to be reversed, Du Xiaoxi hurriedly said: "It just so happens that there is a peach forest in front, and after the peach forest is an apple forest, let's go pick peaches first." But the peaches here are all big peaches, crunchy, very sweet, I don't know if you like it or not? β
As he spoke, he turned to the path leading to the peach grove.
Shang Minglan's wheelchair could only walk on the stone road, and she was pushed by her younger brother and leaned over to look left and right at the nearby peach tree, and suddenly pointed to a big red peach in the distance and said, "I want that!" When Shang Mingrui heard this, he said goodbye, "Look at me", and he is going to marry and climb the tree.
Seeing her younger brother climbing the tree, Shang Minglan was worried again and hurriedly said, "I don't want that, I don't want that!" β
Du Xiaoxi raised his forehead, knowing that these two were not easy to serve.
"There's scissors ahead, I'll get them!" After speaking, Du Xiaoxi ran forward along the path, and came back after a while, followed by Senior Brother Huaiming, who happened to be picking peaches.
"Amitabha, don't climb at will, everything has a spirit, please take care of them."
Du Xiaoxi was a little embarrassed, who would have thought that Senior Brother Huaiming, who had broken thoughts, would become nervous when he reached the second year of secondary school.
Shang Minglan knew that she had met Senior Brother Huaiming three years ago, and knew that he was an authentic Buddhist senior brother, so she hurriedly straightened her body and said, "Amitabha, thank you for your teachings." β
Senior Brother Huaiming nodded with satisfaction, and then said arrogantly, "You want to pick that?" Let me! β
Before the three of them thanked him, he continued: "How can you use your worldly hands to touch the peaches of our Buddhism!" β
Shang Minglan "......"
Shang Mingrui "......"
Said that the good brother and sister live in harmony, love the same brother and sister, and create a harmonious sect of Buddhism!
Du Xiaoxi: Senior brother is seriously ill again, take a peach from Buddhism to suppress the shock.
Shang Minglan saw that his younger brother was showing signs of being angry with this strange senior brother, and hurriedly pointed to the big peach on the tree, and dragged his younger brother with the other hand.
The large scissors are tied to the bamboo pole, and there is a pocket hanging from the bottom of the scissors, and the pocket is aimed at the peach first, and then the peach is cut and the peach will fall directly into the pocket. Of course, only children do this, and adults go up to the tree and eat it directly.
Under the eyes of the little brother Huaiming, you worldly people have defiled the peaches of Buddhism, Du Xiaoxi ordered a few big peaches in a row, and finally sent away the little brother Huaiming who had completed his merits.
Seeing that the two of them looked at each other, Du Xiaoxi said twice, and pushed the two of them to go forward.
Senior Brother Huaiming of her family can't say it, can't say it.
After that, no one will pick the fruit of Buddhism for her shop!
"What's that?" Although Shang Mingrui was angry, he didn't want to affect his sister's mood, so he quickly adjusted.
Du Xiaoxi looked at it fixedly, and sighed, "That's Liu Yao's tree!" Liu Yao is my fiancΓ©. β
Obviously, the two of them were very interested in this, Shang Mingrui saw that his sister was curious, so he ran over and took off the sign hanging on the branch, only to see the word 'Liu Yao' written on the unmodified wooden board, followed by a little rabbit with red eyes.
Du Xiaoxi saw that the two were curious, so he explained the origin of the brand: "This forest is very large, and when it bears fruit, the taste is good and bad, and everyone's favorite taste is different, so we put up a sign on our favorite tree, so that others can't eat the peaches on this tree casually." After speaking, Du Xiaoxi snorted and pointed to the sign in Shang Mingrui's hand, "I said that I can't choose a tree on the side of the road, Liu Yao prefers to choose, just because the peach branch on that tree is good-looking!" See! It's flopped! Let him not listen to me! β
Shang Minglan and Shang Mingrui are very embarrassed, the flop seems to be the patent of their imperial uncle, and they don't need to say anything about your little couple.
In order to alleviate the little embarrassment, Shang Minglan smiled and said, "Senior sister, what does your tree look like?" Take us to see it! β
"Good! My book is in it, I'm going to call someone to take you there. β
Shang Mingrui knew what Du Xiaoxi was calling for, and as soon as he clapped his hands, two people in Tsing Yi with masked faces appeared beside him. Du Xiaoxi's eyes lit up, the legendary secret guard, alive! Du Xiaoxi wants to ask: Big brother, are you called Dark One, Dark Two, OR, Night One, Night Two, More OR, Shadow One, Shadow Two!
