After the morning meal, Agui came to Jing'an Courtyard.

"The master has ordered, the guests will come at noon to greet the old lady, today is the old lady's 80th birthday, the young master must make a dignified and solemn manners."

Although Mu An is usually like an invisible person, his identity is still there, and he doesn't go to the birthday banquet in previous years, but people still attach more importance to this whole birthday. Because most of the monks comprehend the way of immortality, the longevity is long, and the family affection is weakened, except for the ancestors in the big clan who need to be congratulated by the whole clan every year and their longevity, most of the time ordinary families only celebrate during the whole birthday.

Of course, in the final analysis, the old lady of the Mu family is just an ordinary old man in her old age, and the Mu family is full of monks, so naturally she will not be happy to celebrate her birthday every year.

Monks, after all, are different from mortals.

But whoever has the ability has pride.

Ji Hongxiang and Chunxi glanced at each other and nodded. Chunxi said: "When it comes to grooming and dressing up, neither of us is very good at craftsmanship, so I'll go find Ruyan and Rulan and ask them to help." Incidentally...... By the way, I also sent Agui. ”

Ji Hong smiled at makeup, speaking of the girl's complicated bun, the two of them did have tight hands, but when it came to simple men's hair, there was really no need to find someone to help, as soon as she heard it, she knew Chunxi's unfinished meaning, she winked at Chunxi, and teased: "Go, go, I'll do it, you can come back later!" ”

Chunxi also smiled back.

She and Agui arrived at a sparsely populated flower bush outside the courtyard, and Agui saw that there was no one around, so he suddenly hugged her.

"Xi'er, I miss you to death!"

Chunxi was taken aback, her fair face was immediately dyed with a light crimson, she was more than three years older than Ji Hong, she was at the age of cardamom, at the age of transforming from a little girl to a little girl, she was both curious and shy about men and women, and she was always at a loss for Agui's intimacy.

Agui is a young man who has been governor, he saw Chunxi looking shy and timid, his heart fluttered, he lowered his head to kiss her, Chunxi hurriedly blocked it with his hand, glanced at him delicately, and said angrily: "What are you doing!" ...... in broad daylight"

Agui approached her with a grin: "My good girl! I like you to do it! If I were someone else, I'd be - hey! Only halfway through the words, he was hammered in the chest by the person in his arms, and Chunxi glared at him: "Do you dare to think about others?" ”

When a girl is angry, whether you have done something wrong or not, you have to recognize it immediately. Thinking of the experience that his brother had secretly taught him, Agui immediately admitted his mistake flatteringly: "Don't dare, don't dare!" In my eyes, how can you be a woman in this world? He added: "When I join the Zong family, I will definitely try my best to become the most powerful little guy next to the eldest lady, and I will make you rich." ”

"Miss's side?" Chunxi was surprised: "The family wants you to follow the eldest lady?" ”

Agui also pretended to complain: "I want to go with you, otherwise, when you come back, you can still remember my good coming?" So I asked the head of the house for grace. Are you happy? ”

Come back?

Chunxi's heart seemed to be lightly pricked by these two words, and it didn't hurt or itch.

She never really wanted to come back.

She replied vaguely, and when she heard Agui change the topic, she couldn't help but feel relieved.

Agui said: "It's hard to find time to see you today." The chief steward Xu didn't know what was wrong today, he suddenly called sick, and temporarily called a few old people in the house to support the scene, especially a few of us who have always been favored by the head of the family, and we are all busy today! ”

Chunxi responded, gently broke free from his embrace, and said, "Then you hurry up and get busy!" Agui took the opportunity to kiss her on the forehead, and said happily: "Xi'er, I'll come to you when I'm done!" ”

On the way back, Agui was like honey, smiling happily, and when others asked him, he didn't say anything, which made everyone guess.

Ji Hongmakeup came to the door of Mu An's room, she wrung her eyebrows, her hand just raised, and then put it down.

It was as if there was an invisible silk thread that was swinging back and forth in her heart, and at the other end of the thread was a stone.

Heavy and fluttering.

If she has nothing to do with Mu An, she can hypnotize herself, as if there is no such person, do not think about the relationship between them, do not pay attention to him, as if she has never had any relatives, and is alone in this world; However, when she actually saw him, she couldn't help but be attracted to him, as if her heart would fall on him.

It's a mysterious, unbreakable attraction.

It's a blood-soaked attraction that's thicker than water.

It's hard to resist.

She stood outside the door for a full quarter of an hour, an emotion akin to homesickness haunting her.

Ji Hongxiang finally gently buckled the door: "Can I come in?" "Actually, in terms of politeness, or humility, what she should say is, young master, can I go in? But she didn't even have the interest to pretend at this time, perhaps in this way to show that she and Mu An were on an equal footing.

I don't know if I'm subconsciously telling myself, or if I'm telling the people inside.

After a long while, there was still no sound inside, and the silence remained the same.

Ji Hongxiang asked again, but did not answer.

She pushed the door open, and saw the young man's straight back, hunched on the table, as if busy with something. She closed the door lightly, not noticing, the young man's back instantly froze, and instantly returned to its original appearance.

Mu An carried a brush and sketched all kinds of strange patterns on the white and flawless rice paper, sometimes stopping to think about it, frowning, and then leaving a few scratches.

The morning light is dotted, and occasionally a few wisps of it dance on the side of his face, clean and clear.

Ji Hongxiang looked at him carefully at this time and found that his eyebrows and eyes were very similar to Zhenniang, with a pair of sharp phoenix eyes.

But I saw that his eyes were half-drooping, and his eyes were narrow and long, like phoenix eyes.

As far as physiognomy is concerned, the person with phoenix eyes is majestic and introverted, and when he looks at others, he has his own divine might, and he is very powerful, and others dare not look at him directly.

Such a person should be a radiant existence.

Mu An is such a silent loner.

He buried his head alone, drawing unknown patterns, completely immersed in his own world.

Ji Hongxiang couldn't help but take a look, only to see those dense black dots, some were a single dot, some were next to each other, and some were denser.

Hazy, she seemed to find something, and she counted the dots—

Four, nine, two

Three, five, seven

Eight, one, six

Horizontal, vertical, and crossing, and the sum is a fixed value, and there are more small dots and more numbers in it.

Nine Palaces!

Nine Palaces Sudoku, Ji Hongxiang also used to play, it was a very interesting game, but she knew that the points drawn by Mu An were not Sudoku games that she had played, but related to Qimen Dunjia and Nine Palaces Yishu, the five elements of each other, and the technique of Nine Palaces Evolution!

This is the method of formation!

Xu is inhalation sound finally woke up Mu An, who was intoxicated with the number of spells, his elbow inadvertently moved, and a book next to him fell.

The page opened to reveal a familiar pattern.

Above the pattern, there is a traditional Chinese character "seal", which is the "seal" of the seal.

Ji Hong's eyelids jumped.

remembered the jade pendant that was given to Steward Xu by Ruyan.
