Chapter 12: A Lively Morning

Life is in motion...... Especially in the morning.

The morning air is fresh and there is no scorching direct sunlight, which is a good time to skip rope.

This rope was seen at a roadside stall on the street, and he bought a bundle of it as soon as he had an idea, and he cut and cut it to make a jump rope of the right length.

Whispering that they had never seen this kind of exercise, they thought it was novel, and she was even more noisy to try it, but she was hit by the rope on her hands and head, and almost tripped and fell to the ground, maybe she thought of the experience of the third lady yesterday, and she never touched the skipping rope again.

The plan of the day lies in the morning, and after jumping rope, Situ Xi ran to the path outside the yard and began to turn back and run.

Drawing a few lines on the dirt with a branch, he ran back every time he touched it, and before he had finished the race, he was so tired that he was out of breath and fell to the ground.

"Uncle, your physical strength is really poor, so you can't do it all at once."

Zhong Lisu was doing the things of a female celebrity in the courtyard, and whispered a single stool and sat on the side looking at Situ Xi, she was busy with her business, so she listened to Zhong Lisu's arrangement to accompany Situ Xi to exercise.

"You know what, this switchback run looks like a short distance, but it's tiring to actually run down. Besides, it's faster than who runs, it's practice to break out! Not more durable than lasting! "Situ Xi doesn't usually argue with people, except when it comes to things that he cares about.

"Yes, yes, my uncle is the fastest! But my uncle is really amazing, I was able to frighten the slave yesterday, and I only came to my senses today. Thinking back to the frightened eyes of those people when we came back from the house, I was so angry! ”

whispered and waved his white little fist, looking at Situ Xi's eyes full of longing, his uncle was in front of him yesterday.

"That's none of my business."

"I know, I know, if I didn't have my uncle yesterday, the slave and maid might have been seriously injured, and I can't tell if I can talk to you today."

"Today, I heard from Miss that Uncle, your poems are also very remarkable, and you can solve problems that your master can't solve, and you can tell stories, and today there are so many novel ways to strengthen your body, Uncle is really omnipotent, what can't you do?"

This girl has become a loyal fan of Situ Xi, seeing her brainless fanaticism, she may really think that her aunt is a god descended from heaven.

"That's too much, like having a baby." Situ Xi lay on the ground and did a few more sit-ups, until he used up the last bit of strength in his body, then he sat on the ground with his hands behind his back, and looked at her seriously.

Whispering's cheeks were slightly red, and when he heard this, he hurriedly turned his head and didn't dare to look at him.

The surroundings quieted down, a few leaves fell into the bushes, and a "rustling" sound suddenly came from the bushes on his side, and Situ Xi frowned.

Someone?

The dense leaves in the bushes swayed, and Situ Xi stood up vigilantly and stared at the side of the woods.

Suddenly, a thin body came out of the woods full of branches and leaves, he staggered, staggered and collided with Situ Xi, Situ Xi hurriedly retreated, and looked closely, it turned out to be a child with a dirty face, he kept coughing at this time, and his breath was a little weak. When he looked up at Situ Xi, he actually muttered two words: "Dad...... Daddy. ”

Then he fell to the ground, collapsed and fainted.

The breeze blew, the leaves made a rustling sound again, Situ Xi took off his guard, his face was strange, was he just calling himself?

Slightly stunned, she stared at the dirty child on the ground in a whisper, and was silent for a long time before her face changed greatly, and her little face turned red.

"Miss, my uncle has a child!"

……

Gently wiping the dust off the child's face, Zhong Lixuan put the white handkerchief into the wooden bucket filled with water, and the dirt spread in an instant, and the child's delicate face became clear in their eyes.

Whispering and fetching another bucket of water back, Situ Xi sat in the yard, still a little apprehensive in his heart, this child can't really be left by his predecessor.

Probably not.

A few slight coughs came, Situ Xi sat up suddenly, walked into the door with a smile, and saw the little boy's face that was completely different from his own, and he relaxed a little.

"Save my daddy!"

As soon as these words came out, Situ Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

Whispered and stuck out his tongue at Situ Xi, a little embarrassed, but this kid just called his uncle like that, it was hard not to make people think about it.

"Little guy, speak slowly, who is your father, what is the situation, do you know me? And why did a man appear in the woods on the east side of the city? ”

Situ Xi stood beside the bed, he had many doubts, his yard was very remote, and because there were often small officials patrolling here, except for the three people in his own family and the officials who were responsible for inspecting his situation, there was basically no one else to interact with, why did this kid run here alone.

And he claims to save his father himself, is it an acquaintance of the previous body?

"Sir, Daddy was taken away by the government officials this morning, please save him!"

The little boy eagerly sat up from the bed and looked at Situ Xi with tears in his eyes.

"Who is your father?"

"That's right, this is a letter from Daddy to you, he said that Mr. is a summoner. Daddy is also a summoner, you must save him. The boy hurriedly rummaged through a letter in his bosom.

As soon as these words came out, Situ Xi's pupils froze, and he took the envelope in the boy's hand, and was about to open it.

There was a knock on the door.

Everyone was shocked, these officials moved so fast.

……

After hiding the child, Situ Xi put the letter in his bag, said softly, "Wait a minute", and slowly came to the gate of the courtyard.

When the courtyard door was opened, Situ Xi's expression was relieved, and it was really lively today.

The person who came was none other than the old man Jia Fan, who had beaten him a few times.

"Meet the Nine Kings, the old man didn't know Mount Tai before, and he neglected you, don't blame you."

Fan Lao's voice was still so energetic, but his words were no longer as casual as before, and he was extremely respectful when he bent down to salute.

"Outside of the old man, any Nine Kings, you can call me Gongzi, Xiaoyou or Xige'er, whatever you like." Situ Xi smiled, beckoned the old man into the courtyard, closed the courtyard door casually, and the two came to the stone table in the small courtyard and sat down.

"Why did the old man come to me today?" Situ Xi asked straight to the point, this Fan Lao obviously knew his identity in his words just now, and he deliberately hinted that he could come to the Chengdong Courtyard last time, it seems that this old man is really in trouble.

"Don't hide it, the old man came to the door today, and he really had something to ask for."

Seeing that the person who came was Situ Xi's acquaintance, Zhong Lixuan personally came out to add tea for the two, and when the fragrant tea was poured into the teacup, Fan Lao thanked her repeatedly.

"Fan Lao is for the emperor's list?"
