The First Sword

Chapter 11 Surprise

Yan Ji doesn't want to talk about this topic. After all, his past is not a glorious thing, and he doesn't want anyone to know that he has been a thief. Yan Ji thought that he had started a new life after coming to Qingzhu Xianju and didn't want to talk to anyone about the past, so he refused, "There is nothing to say about this. Let's talk about it again."

Zhou Ruohan felt that it was reasonable and nodded, "Yes, it will be unhappy to say this, so what are we talking about?"

"What did you say?" Yan Ji scratched his ears and scratched his head and didn't know what to say, so he threw the topic to Zhou Ruohan again: "I don't know what to say, or you say it."

Zhou Ruohan sat on the chair and thought about it. After a moment, he also said, "I don't know what to say..."

The two people who wanted to talk had no topic, and both of them seemed a little embarrassed.

Yan Ji said, "Then let's not talk about it. I'm going back to bed. It's already late. You should go to bed early!"

As soon as he wanted to open the door and get out of the room, he was stopped by Zhou Ruohan: "No, why don't you keep your word? You just said you wanted to talk to me, why do you have to go back to bed now?"

When she said this, Yan Ji really felt that he was a person who didn't keep his word, so he came back to sit in the chair. When he sat down, there was a topic: "Why don't you say something happy? What's your happiest thing?"

Zhou Ruohan raised his head and thought for a moment and said, "My happiest thing is..." She suddenly stopped and said, "When I think of the happiest thing, I will think that the happiest thing will never exist again, and I will be unhappy again. I don't want to say it."

Yan Ji thinks that this also makes sense. For example, when he thinks of the happy days with his parents, he can't help thinking that his parents will never live.

The two people who wanted to talk couldn't find the topic, and the scene was quite funny. Yan Ji was not talkative, but Zhou Ruohan, who had always been flexible, had no words.

"Bear by the way, let's do the laundry!" Zhou Ruohan didn't know how to do laundry.

Yan Ji asked, "Do you wash clothes? Is it so late to wash clothes?

Zhou Ruohan nodded and said, "Yes! Our clothes are washed by our senior sister every day, and our senior sister cooks for us every day, and we also make our senior sister angry... I suddenly feel very sorry for our senior sister. Let's wash all our clothes and let the senior sister relax!"

Yan Ji also felt that what the little sister said was very reasonable. For the past two months, the senior sister had washed and cooked for them every day, and they had never done anything for the senior sister, so the two began to find out the clothes, shoes and socks they had to wash.

The thoughts of the brothers and sisters are also very reasonable, but in the dead of night, people suddenly have to wash clothes, which is really puzzling.

The water in late winter is cold and piercing, so it has to be washed with hot water. Liang Xiangling was awakened by his cooking water in the kitchen. He got up and put on his clothes. One of her brothers and a sister were squatting at the kitchen door to wash clothes with oil lamps. He immediately shook his head and smiled and sighed, "Do these two living treasures have nerves? I didn't sleep in the middle of the night and came to wash clothes.

Liang Xiangling didn't bother. She wanted to see what was wrong with them.

Zhou Ruohan is a young lady in Qianjian Villa. She has been spoiled since she was a child and has never washed clothes. Yan Ji lives in poverty and has no clothes to change at all, and he hasn't washed it several times. When the two saw that the clothes could not come out of dirty water, they also knew that they had probably washed them and took them to the corridor to dry.

"It's snowing! Brother, look!"

Zhou Ruohan suddenly took Yan Ji's hand out of the corridor and felt the snow falling in the air.

The cold little hand suddenly grabbed Yan Ji's hand. At this moment, Yan Ji's attention was only focused on the small hand holding his palm. How has he ever had a playmate over the years? Why have you ever been run and play with your playmates holding hands?

The feeling of holding hands is indescribable. I don't know. The cold little hand gives him a very painful feeling, and he really wants to hold that little hand to give her the warmth of his palm. Yan Ji didn't do this. He just stared at the hand and let his sister hold it.

"I'm still scolding 'bad brother' and 'bad girl' during the day. Why are you holding hands at night? Okay, it's so fast!"

Both of them were shocked by what they said, and Zhou Ruohan was so scared that he also let go of his brother's hand.

Liang Xiangling stood under the eaves, and her skirt fluttered gently by the evening wind, dancing like a fairy.

Liang Xiangling walked towards them and said, "Where is so much spirit? Washing clothes and watching the snow, won't you be shocked by me saying a few words?

Zhou Ruohan shook his head and muttered, "I... We saw that it was very hard for our senior sister to wash clothes every day, so we washed the clothes by ourselves to make senior sister happy."

Liang Xiangling laughed and said, "The trick you two babies played during the day also said that it was very hard to watch your senior sister cook. You have to learn to cook. Won't you make any trouble again?"

Seeing that the senior sister misunderstood them, Yan Ji was sad for a while and didn't want the senior sister to think that they had not improved. She quickly explained, "No, there is nothing. We will never lie to the senior sister again."

Liang Xiangling's words are of course a joke. She has never really been angry with her younger brothers and sisters. She scolded Yan Ji just because she hated others to lie and cheat.

"Brother, do you know why I'm so angry during the day?" Liang Xiangling asked Yan Ji.

Seeing that the senior sister mentioned this again, Yan Ji thought that the senior sister was still angry and whispered, "That's because we... all the food..." He didn't dare to say any more.

Liang Xiangling shook his head and said righteously, "No, what you did are trivial things. How can I really be angry with you? It's just that I can't tolerate your lies and tricks to lie to me. Would you be happy if you were deceived and teased every day?

Yan Ji buried his head and replied, "No."

Liang Xiangling looked at Zhou Ruohan again and asked, "Ruohan, how about you?"

Zhou Ruohan also buried himself in answering that he couldn't.

Liang Xiangling said again, "Senior sister not only wants to teach you to practice the true method, but also to teach you how to be a man. Both of you are about to grow up. One is 14 years old and one is 12 years old. You should know that the best person to deceive people is the best people around you." She spoke with an extremely serious expression, and she didn't feel the usual gentleness at all.

His words were deeply imprinted in Yan Ji's heart. At this moment, he felt that this senior sister should be respected. The feeling of blood boiling is completely blasphemous to the senior sister.

At this moment, Yan Ji understood a lot. If you lose it, you will no longer have it. If you lose the love of your senior sister, what else do you have? Just as the senior sister said the word "get out" to him, he already realized what it was like to lose his sister's love.

"If Master doesn't have time to teach you, she has the responsibility to teach you. Can you promise that you won't lie to me in the future?"

"I can agree!" Yan Ji said these four words without hesitation and his voice was loud. This was his decision to promise his senior sister.

Zhou Ruohan also replied, "I can!"

Liang Xiangling regained her gentle face with a smile and asked, "BY THE way, why did you two little babies suddenly run to wash clothes in the middle of the night? If you want to help your sister reduce the burden, you can wash it during the day. Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night and come to wash it?

Yan Ji really didn't consider this problem. She shivered for a long time and said, "My little sister said to wash it, so I washed it."

This question had to be answered by Zhou Ruohan, but Zhou Ruohan had an aggrieved expression and cried, "I just want to wash my clothes to make my sister easy!" I didn't think about anything, and I didn't think of bad ideas.

Liang Xiangling also realized that what she asked made her feel wronged. She stopped Zhou Ruohan in her arms and coaxed her with a smile: "Okay, don't cry. Sister is wrong, Xiao Ruohan?" Seeing that she was still crying, Liang Xiangling scratched her waist and immediately made her burst into tears.

Touching Zhou Ruohan's cold little hand, Liang Xiangling held her two hands and warmly to her little hand and said, "On such a cold day, it's snowing and running out to play. Let's see how cold you are."

Liang Xiangling actually picked up Zhou Ruohan like holding a child and said gently, "You are cold. Tonight, senior sister will take you to bed to warm you."

This kind of treatment is naturally shameless.

The next day, when Yan Ji was sleeping, he suddenly heard a knock on the door: "Second Brother, get up!"

Yan Ji thought that she had overslept, and the little sister was calling herself to get up and do her homework, hurriedly getting dressed and getting up to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, I only felt dazzling. It was covered with silver outside, and there was two inches of snow on the ground. It could be seen that the snow last night was not small.

Zhou Ruohan stood in front of the house with a basin of hot water and said, "Second brother, wash your face."

This little sister sent water to her brother to wash her face for the first time. Yan Ji felt quite fresh. Usually, she got up at the latest. Today, she actually got up early and sent him hot water to wash his face.

When Zhou Ruohan saw Yan Ji's sleepy eyes, he giggled and said, "Wash your face quickly. Brother, you sleep like a pig. I called so many times before I got up."

Yan Ji didn't care that the little sister called him "pig". He laughed and picked up the towel to wash his face.

After washing his face, Zhou Ruohan pulled him out of the house without waiting for Yan Ji to settle down. He dragged Yan Ji to the dining room like a plaything. He said, "Brother, come and see me to make you happy and surprise you!"

When she came to the dining room, Yan Ji saw that there was nothing but a table of food in the dining room and asked, "What's the surprise?"

Zhou Ruohan said anxterly, "Oh, look carefully!"

Yan Ji looked carefully again. Except for a table of food and four benches, she still didn't find the surprise given by the little sister and asked again, "What?"

I only heard Zhou Ruohan "hum" and said, "You pretend to be stupid! I made this table of food. I got up so early to cook for you. You pretended not to see it.

Only then did Yan Ji know that the "surprise" in her mouth meant this table of rice, and repeatedly apologized, "I'm not pretending to be stupid. I thought it was made by my senior sister!"

"I said, why did I see that you were not in bed as soon as I woke up? It turned out that you got up to cook, or did you little baby know that you feel sorry for your sister!" At this time, Liang Xiangling walked into the dining room and was ready to enjoy the delicious food made by her little sister.

When she came to the table, her face suddenly changed, and she saw that a few plates of wild pork were black, like rolling in charcoal ash, and the other plates of venison seemed to be fried, not fried.

Even Yan Ji, who is very good at cooking, can see that this table is not as good as expected. Not to mention that I can't smell the smell of the dishes cooked by my senior sister, it looks like it doesn't taste good at a glance.

"Eat it quickly! You don't have to look at it like this. Isn't it drooling? If you don't eat it, it will be cold." Zhou Ruohan picked up two bowls of rice porridge, one bowl into his brother's hand and one bowl into his sister's hand.
