Chapter 21: Waiting for the peaches to be ripe
Ji Bo may often be dizzy by beauty, but he will never lose his mind because of the words of his beautiful sister-in-law to help him take care of the child.
"You ......"
Tong Sanniang couldn't help but be a little ugly after being rejected.
"I know my sister-in-law has a hard time, but I also have my own things to do when I come to Fang City..."
Ji Bochang shook his head and said, "If I help you bring An An for a while, then it's no problem; But sister-in-law, you are going out to earn spirit stones, but you are not leaving for a while. ”
His voice paused, and then said: "Let's be a little more ugly, sister-in-law, if you encounter some accidents outside, how should I explain to An An?" ”
“……”
Tong Sanniang was silent when she heard this, obviously she also knew that this 'busy' was a bit difficult for a strong man.
Her face was cloudy, as if she was considering something, and finally sighed and said: "Bochang, you help me bring An An, and all the spirit stones I earn will be given to you except for paying rent!"
Until Xianxia Mountain recruited disciples again and tested An An's qualifications! All to you! ”
“……”
Ji Bo Chang sighed when he heard this, and said, "Why don't you entrust An An to someone else?" I believe that many monks are willing to accept such a reward. ”
"I can't believe it!"
"Then we haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, sister-in-law, how can you trust me?"
"I can trust you by saying that!"
“……”
Ji Bo often looked at the beautiful but extremely stubborn sister-in-law in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a headache.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law, you misunderstood what I meant, this is not the reason why the spirit stone is not the spirit stone, I really have my own business to do when I come to Fang City." ”
When Tong Sanniang heard him still say this, she couldn't help but feel a little more embarrassed in her heart, and asked coldly: "Your so-called 'business' is to find a few Taoist companions to spread out?" ”
"Yes!"
"This is important?"
"Not bad..."
Ji Bochang nodded and responded, "It's very important." ”
Tong Sanniang saw that he used the joking words of the Taoist couple to prevaricate herself, and it was no longer possible to suppress the shame in her heart, her phoenix eyes were flushed, and she gritted her teeth and patted the table and said: "Then you help me take An An, and I will be your Taoist companion afterwards!" ”
“……”
The two stared at each other with big eyes, not only was the scene a little weird, but the atmosphere was a little anxious.
Ji Bo often blinked blankly, and did not come back to his senses until the teacup in his hand was unconsciously tilted and the tea splashed on his body.
He hurriedly stood up and dusted off his tea, by the way to hide the embarrassment of the rolling of the Adam's apple when he swallowed his saliva.
After the tea was dusted off, he said solemnly: "Who does my sister-in-law think of me?" Why do you practice yourself like this? ”
“……”
Tong Sanniang also knew that he was a little embarrassed to say this angry, but what was even more angry was that he used joking words to prevaricate himself, and he was already spicy, so naturally he didn't mean to be soft...
"Isn't your business to be a seeker?"
She snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Don't blame my sister-in-law for speaking ugly, what kind of female cultivator can look at your qualifications of the fifth-line pseudo-spiritual root?" Now I'm going to help you get things done, why don't you dare to respond? ”
"Sister-in-law doesn't have to provoke me, and she doesn't need to practice herself."
Ji Bochang let out a long sigh of relief and asked, "Sister-in-law Fang Cai said that I will help bring An An, you go out to earn spirit stones, except for the rent of your own Liufang City, give me the rest?" ”
"Not bad..."
Tong Sanniang nodded, and was secretly relieved to see that he didn't mention the matter of spreading branches and leaves...
Ji Bo often asked meaningfully: "Sister-in-law, can I understand that all you want is someone who can take An An in the Fang Market until she finishes testing the spiritual root?" ”
"Yes..."
"How much is the rent for a year now?"
"Twelve medium-grade spirit stones."
"It's not cheap..."
Ji Bochang pondered for a while, and then said: "That's not like this, you continue to take An An here, and I will pay the rent first, and we will be considered a shared tenant during this period."
In the future, Xianxia Mountain will recruit disciples to test An An's qualifications, and she will almost have the ability to take care of herself at that time, and then you will find a way to earn spirit stones and return them to me, how about it? ”
"This ......"
Tong Sanniang thought that he was going to make some other requests, but she never thought that the plan he proposed would be so simple, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was not even an exaggeration to say that he was busy in vain.
She didn't know how to answer for a while, so she asked, "Is this true?" ”
Ji Bochang nodded, and Zhengse responded: "Seriously." ”
“……”
Tong Sanniang saw the positive color in her eyebrows and didn't feel a little distracted, she pursed the corners of her lips after coming back to her senses, and quipped meaningfully: "You are so good to my mother, do you have any intentions?" ”
"What an attempt..."
Ji Bochang just smiled and said, "I have to find a place to settle down and pay the rent, and this courtyard doesn't care about two more people, that's all." ”
With that, he took out thirteen medium-grade spirit stones from his storage bag and placed them on the table.
He glanced at the tea on the table and explained: "The next time they come to collect the rent, they will pay the rent, and the rest will buy some spiritual rice and spiritual tea to improve their lives." ”
“……”
Tong Sanniang was stunned, looking a little distracted...
Seeing the little uncle's refusal to be so resolute, she said something angry in her heart, and she didn't have much hope for this matter.
But in a blink of an eye, the little uncle was not only willing to help unconditionally, but also placed all the spirit stones in front of him.
She actually felt like she was in a trance in a dream......
Ji Bochang didn't say much, and walked out by himself, but when he left, he silently read in his heart: "Three...... 2. ......"
Before he could pronounce the 'one', he heard a weak female voice behind him, "Where are you going?" ”
"After more than 20 years, I came to Fang Market again, and I also have a place to stay, so I naturally want to go out and go around."
Ji Bochang paused in his voice, and continued in a teasing tone: "By the way, take a look at the girls in this city, so that you can set the goal of seeking a companion in the future." ”
“……”
Tong Sanniang almost laughed out loud when she heard this, then looked at the spirit stone on the table, then looked at him who was about to go out, and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will leave with the spirit stone?" ”
"Don't be afraid..."
"Why aren't you afraid?"
"Not afraid is not afraid..."
Ji Bochang sighed and said: "Because my sister-in-law is a mother, I can't respect the mother who can be so depressed for her child, so what's there to be afraid of?" ”
“……”
Tong Sanniang's breath stagnated when she heard this, her phoenix eyes were faintly red, and the hands in her sleeves trembled slightly.
Ji Bo often waved his hand, "Let's go." ”
"I have one more question."
"Sister-in-law can ask..."
"Why are you willing to help me?"
Tong Sanniang took a deep breath, calmed down and asked, "Is it because of Li Hongyan, or is it my identity as a sister-in-law?" ”
"Neither..."
Ji Bochang shook his head and said, "I just don't want An An to grow up like me." ”
With that, he stepped out of the room...
When passing by the yard, I saw that the peach trees were lush and growing well, so I picked a small peach from it that had not yet grown.
Now this little peach is not ripe, it must taste sour and hard, just wait patiently for a while, and wait for the peach to ripen naturally, then it must taste sweet and delicious...
Tong Sanniang looked at his back in a daze, and muttered with red eyes: "I'm just... I don't want An An... Just grow up like me..."
Then he smiled, like a peach in March...
