Chapter 174: Little Lori
Passing through this 32-meter-tall and 9-meter-wide wall, the outermost city wall is made of strong cedar rock.
Then, in the middle of the crowded street, specially divided for the military, the people should not stay, more than six meters wide, paved with marble, after the military artery, more than ten kilometers long.
During this period, there was not a single beggar who lived a poor life on the streets of the outer city.
At the same time, I also found that walking on the street, Qin Xiulong and his party of blue knights who opened the road in front of them, and the people who bent down and took off their hats to salute, in their mental outlook, Ye Qi and his party seemed to be very full, and for a while, they seemed to have an illusion of returning to the real world.
Not to mention that under this phenomenon, in the past nearly a year, the people who have been accustomed to the world of Aya, the Terran city, and the people walking on the streets seem to be a little sallow, or haggard Ye Qi and others, what they think at this time.
With their team, they entered the inner city, where the flow of people was relatively sparse, and the pedestrians on the streets looked more and more decent in dress.
In the end, in front of the gate of a giant manor built next to a hill in the city, he found that Qin Xiulong and his party who led the way in front of him pulled the reins of the war horse under the seat, and when they all turned over and dismounted, they realized that this should be Ye Qi who lived in Qin Xiulong's residence in the national capital, and he was also the left hand that was holding the reins of the war horse under the seat at the moment, and slowly pulled it to stop the horse's momentum.
"Father~"
With this cry with a milky voice, a little girl dressed in a gorgeous costume with two pigtails on her head, looking extremely cute, was among the people who came out of the gate, walked on her calves, ran out first, and plunged into the arms of Qin Xiulong, who heard this shout, and turned around and bent down.
On the side, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him who was holding the little blonde girl in his arms and spinning it in mid-air, Ye Qi, who had just handed over the reins in his hand to the servant who stepped forward on the side, opened his mouth with some doubts and asked Qin Yongfeng beside him, "Your sister?" â
Qin Yongfeng, who was also smiling, nodded to him and said something.
Qin Xiulong, who walked over with the little girl in his arms, turned to Ye Qi and introduced: "Ye Qi, my little daughter, Qin Kexi...... This is Uncle Ye Qi, Dad's friend, Kexi, called uncle. â
But waiting for this very well-behaved little girl, after calling "uncle" in a milky voice, she spread her little hand towards Ye Qi, and continued with a pair of big eyes with a look of expectation: "Uncle, gift~"
Obviously, he didn't expect that there would be such a show, so Ye Qi, who had not prepared any greeting gifts in advance, was naturally a little dumbfounded at this time.
At the same time, Qin Xiulong, who didn't expect his baby daughter to ask Ye Qi for a meeting gift in this first meeting situation, was naturally embarrassed at this time, and opened his mouth to signal his little daughter not to mess around.
However, as Qin Xiulong's first persuasion was fruitless, the tone of his speech inevitably increased a little, and he had never seen his father since he was a child, and he would put such a serious expression on his little Lori, those big eyes, at this time, tears appeared.
On the side, they naturally looked at everything in their eyes, and obviously didn't want to make this kind of originally very pleasant and warm scene cold. It was also at the same time that Ye Qi, who thought of something, immediately took off his listening earring, which was blocked by his long hair and had been wearing on his left ear, squatted down, and handed it to the little Lori who was about to cry.
All of a sudden, the little Lori who was attracted the attention of the little Lori who was inlaid with a green elf stone and exquisite silver earrings in front of her, reached out and took it, and looked at it intently. At the same time, he didn't forget to thank him and said, "Thank you, Uncle Ye Qi, these earrings are so beautiful, but Xi likes them very much...... Uncle, does it have a name? â
"An earring, and a name?"
Of course, the above is obviously Ye Qi's heartfelt complaint.
Faced with a problem like this little Lori in front of him, it is naturally impossible for this kind of child who is not yet sensible to have any disgust because of the other party's behavior today.
It's just that Ye Qi, who felt that Xiao Lori's question at this time made people very speechless, still squatting and patiently explained: "This is a listening earring, but after you wear it, it can let you see the scenery farther away, and you are full of energy every day." â
Under Ye Qi's explanation, Qin Kexi, who had naturally listened to his elders in the past, said that those extraordinary equipment were magical, and the big eyes that seemed to be able to speak were a little bright for a while, and his face was full of expectation, and he asked Ye Qi again: "Then is this magic equipment, or is it extraordinary equipment?" â
Ye Qi, who could only nod at this, replied: "Whether it is magic equipment or extraordinary equipment, it is actually a title." After that, he asked again: "Do you want Uncle to help Kexi bring it?" â
Without waiting, the little Lori who nodded immediately opened her mouth to agree.
A middle-aged lady in the crowd who was coming out of the manor, when she saw this scene, stepped forward to tie her face to Xiao Lori, and said, "Qin Kexi, have you forgotten what your mother told you before, can't you accept such expensive gifts from others at will?" â
Although he thought about his little buttocks, he subconsciously wanted to hand back the earrings in his hand to Ye Qi. But the little Lori who was very reluctant in her heart finally retorted weakly: "But ...... But, my father, haven't you already agreed? â
On the side, naturally, at first glance, he saw that the earrings given by Ye Qi were not an ordinary jewelry, but a piece of Qin Yongfeng, who was not of high grade, but was also an extremely rare and extraordinary jewelry, and immediately interjected: "Girl, father, but I didn't say anything when I stood aside, and I kept asking you not to mess around." â
"But people really like ......"
At this time, Ye Qi's identity was not known, but judging from the Ranger armor on Ye Qi and the others, Ye Qi and the others were likely to happen to meet the noble lady who returned her husband's team on the road, so it was naturally impossible to estimate the feelings of outsiders too much.
Therefore, in the face of her little daughter, when she was still holding on to the earrings, she turned on the usual staring mode in the past, and at the same time, she also let out a "En (Ên)" in her nasal cavity, which is definitely full of threats for little Lori, and the meaning of making a final warning.
And in this kind of situation where they haven't introduced each other, Ye Qi, who understands that the two sides still don't know each other, at this time, he didn't care about this noble lady who should be Qin Xiulong's wife, this kind of behavior that doesn't take into account the feelings of others.
At the same time, he found the little Lori in front of him, and actually gave himself a rescue look, instead of asking Qin Xiulong, who was also on the side, or her brother Qin Yongfeng for help, he couldn't help but be happy about this, and the corners of his mouth were raised, and he said very confidently: "Okay, your mother just thinks this gift is too expensive." However, the uncle felt that it was okay. Come, uncle, bring it for you. â
looked at the young ranger in front of him, who didn't know the details, and directly ignored his attitude and put the earring on the left earlobe of his little daughter. Obviously, she didn't expect the other party to be so bold, and after being stunned, she couldn't help but turn her eyes to the side, her husband.
However, when she found out that her husband on the side was actually in this situation, he still smiled and shook his head, and she was even more confused in her heart.
And Qin Xiulong, who saw everything in his eyes and was obviously very satisfied with Ye Qi's final realization, stretched out his hand and grabbed the waist of the lady on the side, and introduced to Ye Qi, who had already brought the earrings to his little daughter's ears and stood up: "Ye Qi, this is my wife." â
"Lucia, this young man standing in front of you is my fellow countryman, Ye Qi."
