The wind is born in the courtyard and the shadow of the flowers is deep.

In front of the ancestral hall of the Patriotic Mansion, there is a 500-year-old cypress, the thick trunk is half scorched, and the branches are dry.

and the other half are vibrant, with a canopy of trees that shades the entire courtyard like a canopy.

This tree has a great history.

The ancestor of the Gao family has settled in Tiandu since Dingding of the previous dynasty, and this tree was also planted at that time.

The previous dynasty enjoyed the country for more than 200 years, and the Gao family was not prominent.

When the country was destroyed, the world was in turmoil, and the Gao family also suffered from the military disaster. Later, he fought with the righteous army and made great achievements.

Therefore, he was knighted, but he still lived in the old mansion, but it was expanded.

The Gao family is therefore prominent, but there are not many people left. So they agreed never to separate, and it has been 300 years now.

The tree had been burned during the war, so half of it was scorched. It can be said that it witnessed the rise and fall of the Gao family, so it was regarded as a sacred tree by the Gao family.

At this time, Ji Xing was sitting under the tree with the old lady of the Gao family, and he was punished by the old man Gao to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Because although he entered the Taixue, he did not devote himself to learning. Not only did he often slip away from anyone, but he also sometimes made things difficult for his master.

Therefore, if Gao Mingchen is angry, he will naturally be punished.

It was the old lady Gao who called him out, and the grandfather and grandson talked while enjoying the shade under the tree.

"Remember when you were five years old, you climbed a tree, but you didn't dare to come down and pee your pants on it?" Old lady Gao is always kind and pleasant, and the only person he will get angry with is his eldest son Gao Mingchen.

"I can't remember a little," Ji Xing looked up at the thick trunk and said, "I only remember that my mother and aunt later said that my uncle said that I had desecrated the sacred tree and was going to spank my ass, but you stopped me and said that the boy urinated to ward off evil spirits." ”

Old lady Gao has protected Jixing since he was a child, which is the most difficult place for Gao Mingchen.

"Hehe, you little clever ghost, you hugged my thigh when someone got me down from a tree, what if I don't protect you?" Old Lady Gao stroked Jixing's head with great affection and said, "I also think about what if such a tender little ass is broken?" ”

"Grandpa, my ass is now iron." Ji Xing said helplessly: "Uncle picked you to beat me when you were not at home, and the board went down quickly and ruthlessly, as if you couldn't beat me if you didn't hurry up." ”

"Don't blame him, he really wants you to be a talent." Old lady Gao didn't understand the eldest son's hard work: "He sent you to Taixue because he wanted you to study and become a talent, who would have thought that you would become more and more naughty, how could he not be angry?" ”

"I don't want to do that, but the masters are too boring." Ji Xing was also very aggrieved: "Some masters still treat me as a child, and only tell me those things that are particularly shallow, and they almost started teaching me from the "Three Character Classic". ”

"Father, don't listen to his rhetoric," the tall old man hurriedly walked over from the front yard, and when he saw Jixing sitting outside, he knew that his discipline had been in trouble again: "People ask him about politics." Why do people on the road want to break their souls, he actually said that people are possessed by ghosts when they go to the grave during Qingming! ”

Ji Xing lowered his head and stuck out his tongue, who wants that Xuezheng to shake his goatee every day knows to make it difficult for himself.

"Heaven and Earth Monarch, how can you not respect the teacher?! Even if you are the emperor, you must be respectful when you see the old lady, this is what knowing books and etiquette should look like! "The tall old man really hates iron and steel: "What do you look like?!" One year is older and two years young, shouldn't you pay attention?! How long are you going to mess around?! ”

"Grandfather, I'm dizzy." Ji Xing tugged at Old Lady Gao's sleeve and said in a weak voice, "I haven't eaten since last night." ”

"Eat less than a few meals and starve you to death!" When the tall old man saw him using the old lady Gao as a shield, he was angry: "Be hungry, lest you learn some exquisite naughtiness!" ”

"How's that going to work? Even if a child needs a lesson, he can't be starved. Old lady Gao said, took Ji Xing's hand and said, "Go to grandpa's house to eat snacks and see who dares to stop you." ”

"If the grandson is gone, the grandson should go to the ancestral hall and kneel." Ji Xing pursed his mouth and looked afraid: "Otherwise, the eldest uncle should be angry again." ”

"Good baby, don't be afraid." Old lady Gao dragged Jixing to his side again: "Are you afraid that he will punish you twice, right?" Don't be afraid, today you will sleep with your grandfather. ”

Ji Xing's purpose was achieved, and he was overjoyed in his heart. But on the surface, he had to pretend to be obedient, and said cautiously: "Uncle, then I went with my grandfather." ”

"Humph!" Gao Mingchen gritted his teeth, this little cub is now more and more lawless.

Ji Xing told the old lady that he wanted to eat snacks here, but he actually wanted to sneak out of the house, and he hadn't seen Su Haoyi for several days.

So after a few bites of tea and snacks, he said, "I want to meet my little niece and play with her for a while." ”

"Go, go, Mei'er is still walking unsteadily, don't fall her." Mrs. Gao cherishes her children very much.

Who knew that Jixing changed his clothes and did not go to Gao Xi's yard to coax his little niece, but slipped out through the back door.

As a result, when he arrived at the Chu Waist Pavilion in one breath, Su Haoyi was not there.

"If I go to the Lantai Medical Center, Seventh Brother will definitely know that I am skipping school, and it will be bad if he sues me for being black." Ji Xing felt embarrassed.

Walking out of the Chu Waist Pavilion without a clue, he happened to be seen by Chaogula not far away.

He saw that Ji Xing was born with a pink face and peach cheeks, and there was no attendant by his side, so he regarded him as a person with a similar status as Su Haoyi.

So he stepped forward with a smile and hugged Jixing, and said, "Are you looking for Su Hachiro?" ”

"How do you know?" Jixing looked up and asked him.

Chaogula suddenly itched when he saw the small appearance of Jixing, and said in his heart that Tiandu is indeed the capital of a country, and even people are born very good-looking. While talking, his hand touched Jixing's buttocks: "Go with my brother, my brother will tell you." ”

Ji Xing didn't pay attention to it at first, and when he realized that something was wrong with him, he jumped up and hit him with a head hammer on his chin.

Chaogula's nasal cavity was so hot that he almost passed out. It stands to reason that with such a big physique, Jixing is not an opponent at all.

But because he was unprepared, he was given the upper hand by Jixing.

"Dead brute! Dare to hit the master's idea! "This guy Jixing really has the appearance of flowers and willows on the outside, and the nature of wind and thunder on the inside. And I naturally don't like to bully the weak, and the stronger I am than myself, the harder I have to touch it.

After speaking, he bit into Chaogula's hand again, and screamed as if he had killed a pig.

"Damn, the skin is rough enough." Ji Xing couldn't bite a piece of meat for a long time, and he let go of his mouth hatefully.

Chaogula's entourage hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Who is it? So bold! ”

Jixing wanted to fight, but he was afraid of getting into trouble and being beaten by his uncle, so he ran away.

Asahura, who was half angry, shouted, "Whose rabbit cub?!" Catch me and kill me! ”

At this time, the butler of the princess's mansion came running from a distance, and he came out to play with the prince, and had just helped the prince settle the bill in the store.

"That is the little master of the Weiguo family." The butler panted and said, "We'd better not provoke him." ”
