After abandoning the Ruthless Dao Sword Venerable, verse 96
"In the past few days, the snow has been heavy, and a lot of bamboo has been crushed by the snow piled up, and I finally saw a bamboo leaf that is still intact."
Pei Yi said: "Aunt Huang, give it to you." β
Wu Su put away the bamboo leaf and thanked Pei Yi.
Pei Jiuzhi straightened his back and sat in the middle, glancing at Pei Yi, he immediately lowered his head weakly.
"Nine Emperor Uncles, I'm afraid you'll say I'm naΓ―ve." Pei Yi hurriedly explained.
"You're already young, and it's not a bad thing to be naΓ―ve." Pei Jiuzhi said with his eyes narrowed.
He really doesn't have much experience in taking care of children, Pei Yi hopes to be recognized in front of him, so that he feels that he has grown up, so he will not show his childish side in front of him.
Pei Yi lowered his head and peeked at Pei Jiuzhi.
At this time, the dish was gradually served, and as soon as Usu raised her head, a whole piece of tender fish belly was placed in her bowl.
Pei Jiuzhi remembers her preferences very well.
Usu prefers to eat those delicious aquatic seafood, such as when she went to the princess's mansion before, she ate the stir-fried crab roe, and she ate it with relish.
She also likes to eat sea bass, and she can eat it whole, but unfortunately it is winter and there are not many fresh sea bass.
Wu Su took a small bite of the meal, expressing his satisfaction, and Pei Jiuzhi pushed a plate of carrot stew in front of Pei Yi.
"Your aunt doesn't eat carrots." Pei Jiuzhi said calmly, "You ate the carrot." β
Children at this age need to take in more nutrients, so Pei Jiuzhi tried to trick him into eating those vegetables that didn't taste good.
"Aunt Huang!" Pei Yi looked at Usu with blank eyes and asked, "You really don't eat it." β
"No, I prefer beef." Usu replied honestly.
The large carrots that had been stewed softly were stuffed into Pei Yi's mouth, and his cheeks bulged.
"I'm going to stay at Aunt Huang's house for a few days." He announced.
"Go." Pei Jiuzhi agreed very happily - he himself really hoped that Pei Yi would not be in the Sun Moon Pavilion.
Because Usu really cares too much about this little guy.
Of course, Pei Yi wasn't ready to really go, he ate vegetables violently while peeking at Pei Jiuzhi.
He saw Pei Jiuzhi sandwiching all the dishes that the imperial aunt liked into her bowl, which was still the kind with the bones removed.
The imperial aunt is also very good at eating, and no one even reminded her.
He didn't dare to squeak, just ate in silence.
Usu is actually not particularly edible, but Pei Jiuzhi keeps putting things in her bowl, and she will wipe them all out.
Pei Jiuzhi likes this feeling of feeding her very much, she eats whatever he puts in her.
He put the carrots and she ate them too, only with a slight frown.
Her preferences are clear.
After lunch, Usu had to send the sorted medicinal herbs to Qiuxu's medical hall.
Pei Yi wanted to follow her to the hospital, but Pei Jiuzhi pulled him and wanted to lead him to the vicinity of Yundu to follow the clues of the demon infestation.
With Yundu as the center, there have been too many demons since these days.
Wu Su carried the medicine bag and got into the carriage, it is winter now, and it is almost the New Year, so the streets of Yundu are very lively.
She sat in the carriage with a small stove in her hand.
On her knee in front of Usu, there was a calendar, and she lowered her head and looked carefully at the days on the calendar.
After a while, it will be the New Year, and the first day of the New Year, which symbolizes the beginning, is Pei Jiuzhi's birthday.
Strictly speaking, this may not be his exact birthday, but the day Emperor Pei Chu of Yundu found him was the first day of the new year.
His birthday is very special.
Wu Su had received a birthday gift from Pei Jiuzhi before, which was the blessing of the Heaven Sacrifice Array, and the golden lotus flower that symbolized luck exploded in front of her.
Although she didn't receive any blessing energy, she still felt unprecedented joy at the moment when the fireworks exploded.
It was a magical experience, and Usu wanted His Highness to experience it too.
In the medical hall, Usu sent out the medicinal herbs she had sorted, and Qiu Xu took some broken silver and handed it to her.
"What, does the princess want to ask me for silver?" Qiu Xu teased.
"Hmm...... It's for other things. Usu counted the silver, made sure it was correct, and took it into his little purse.
She remembered that she was going to give Pei Jiuzhi a birthday gift, so she thought about asking the familiar humans around her.
Wu Su decided to ask Qiu Xu first: "Miss Qiu, if you want to give a gift, what should you give?" β
"Huh? Is it a birthday gift for His Highness Nine? Qiu Xu looked at Usu in surprise, she didn't expect a little monster to be so caring.
Wu Su was also shocked, and she asked, "Miss Qiu, how do you know that his birthday is approaching?" β
"Miss Wu, you are so stupid, the day His Royal Highness the Ninth was brought back to Yundu by the emperor, the day and night were reversed, the sun and the moon were reversed, such a vision, who can not remember the days?" Qiu Xu smiled, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. β
Usu said "oh-" and everyone knew it.
She sat behind the consultation desk in the medical hall and asked seriously.
"Miss Qiu, I'm ...... I don't know much about your human rules, what better should I give him? β
Qiu Xu thought for a while and said: "His Royal Highness the Ninth lacks nothing, I see that he likes you very much, you just don't do anything, just coax him more and say something good." β
Usu pursed her lips, she coaxed him every day, which was not unusual.
She shook her head.
"That'...... Just think about it, send him something you made yourself. Qiu Xu took down a few medicine pouches hanging in his medical hall.
"Well, you see, this bag of herbs is not very beautiful, you can embroider one for him, put some soothing spices in it, or herbs that are beneficial to the body." The advice given by Qiu Xu is very useful.
Wu Su suddenly realized that she was very grateful, and immediately said to Qiu Xu: "Then when I go back, I will tell His Royal Highness." β
"Eh-" Qiu Xu pulled Usu back, and she reminded Usu again.
"Birthday gifts should have a sense of mystery, you tell him now, he won't be surprised by the time, you have to prepare secretly."
"I see." Usu says he has learned a lot.
She took the money she had earned, boarded the carriage again, and walked outside the city of Yundu.
In the afternoon, she also had to go to Fangxuan Temple to listen to a lecture by Wenyuan.
Unlike teaching Pei Jiuzhi, Wen Yuan taught everything he knew to Wu Su.
Anyway, Usu is willing to listen and learns quickly, so he will teach whatever he asks if he has anything.
After the incident of the prince's collusion with demons ended, Pei Jiuzhi had a few words with Wen Yuan alone.
Usu didn't know what they said, but after that, the terrible demon that had been chasing Usu never reappeared.
"Teacher, it's the New Year soon." After finishing teaching, Wu Su held the book in his hand and said to Wenyuan.
"yes." Ask Yuan to laugh.
"The first day of the Lunar New Year is His Royal Highness's birthday, and I plan to give him a sachet as a birthday gift." Wu Su said embarrassedly, "Teacher, you get along a lot with His Royal Highness, do you know what kind of sachet pattern he prefers?" β
Wu Su felt that it was better to find someone who knew Pei Jiuzhi to spy on the information first.
"Nine branches never wear sachets." Wen Yuan smiled, "But if you give it, he will definitely wear it." β
"If you ask me, why don't you ask him yourself?" Ask Yuan to give advice to Usu.
"Eh......" Wu Su was stunned, "But Miss Qiu said that the gifts given should be kept mysterious, and I will ask ...... now."
"You pick some embroidery patterns and ask him which one he likes." Asking the fate provided a solution for Usu.
"Yes." Usu nodded his head, thinking that this was a good idea.
"Do you know how to embroider?"
"Won't ......"
"The embroidery workshop in the city has a booklet with embroidered patterns, so you just have to buy it and study." Asking Yuan provided Usu with other help.
In the evening, Pei Jiuzhi came to pick up Usu and go home.
When they came to Yundu Street, Usu asked the carriage to stop in front of an embroidery workshop.
Usu went to the embroidery workshop and bought a whole booklet of embroidery patterns.
She held the booklet, spread it out in front of Pei Jiuzhi, and asked bluntly, "Your Highness, which one do you like?" β
Chapter 59: Fifty-Nine Points of Light
"Huh?" Pei Jiuzhi raised his eyebrows, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "What pattern?" β
His fingers flipped through the booklet and asked, "What does Usu want to buy for me?" β
In order to maintain a sense of mystery, Wu Su only put his hands behind his back and said to Pei Jiuzhi, "Don't buy it." β
"So what's going to be done?" Pei Jiuzhi pretended to be stupid.
Wu Su tugged at his sleeve and said, "Your Highness, you can pick it." β
"I just turned it over, what plum blossoms, the moon, it's all beautiful."
Usu flipped to one of the pages: "Your Highness, you pick." β
Pei Jiuzhi flipped back, and his slender fingers fell on the pair of cross-necked mandarin ducks: "Wusu, I want this." β
"I want this...... Usu looked at the intimate mandarin ducks clinging to each other on the pattern, she felt that this pattern was very complicated.
However, since His Royal Highness likes it, she will definitely embroider it for him.
"Okay." Wu Su closed the booklet and nodded to Pei Jiuzhi.
"So be it." Her voice was soft and soft.
Pei Jiuzhi pulled the broken hair that fell from her sideburns behind her ears, and Wu Su's thoughts were revealed on her face.
