He only hummed when he heard the call, and then there was no following up anymore.

On the left side, the aunt from the back kitchen was chopping firewood with a hatchet, staring at the man basking in the sun while chopping.
There were endless faint thudding sounds that kept lingers on, and the movement of chopping the wood seemed as easy as cutting tofu.

In the process of chopping the firewood, wood chips are often splashed around, and a ghost-like figure shuttles through them, sweeping the debris clean.

Second Wu: “……”

Just, get used to it.

Second Wu sucked his nose and wiped the uncontrollable runny nose with a handkerchief.
He planned to pretend to read a few pages of books and then leave quietly.

Before he turned two pages, the round-faced housekeeper appeared in the courtyard: “Young Master, the Third Miss of Ji family is on her way here and she will arrive soon.”

As soon as the voice fell, his figure couldn’t be seen anymore.

Wu Wei’an opened his eyes and got up.

Because he wore too many layers of clothes, his movement and walking posture seemed inconvenient.
Like a slender penguin, he dragged his chair slowly back to his room.

The scar of the waning moon between the ring finger and little finger on his hand has disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.

When he moved, the others also moved.

When Ji Yunxi followed Second Wu into this back courtyard, she only saw a young servant with pimples on his face, wearing gray cloth and sweeping the snow with dull eyes on the side.

Inside Wu Weian’s plain and simple room.

Ji Yunxi, wearing a cloak and holding a hand-warmer stove, saw the layout of the room in a few glances.

Second Wu, who followed on one side, said quite powerlessly: “Third Miss, how about we change to another place to talk? This is Eldest Brother’s bedroom.
I am afraid if Miss stays longer here, it will damage Miss’ reputation.”

“It doesn’t matter.
I never care about that kind of thing.” Ji Yunxi took back her sight, looked at the shrinking man in the corner and said to Second Wu, “There are some words that I want to say to your eldest brother alone.
You may go out.”

Second Wu: “This, I am afraid it’s inappropriate…”

Wan Xiang and Baofu came in and tossed for a while.

They first put the soft and comfortable cushions on the hard wooden chairs, and then wiped it carefully but still couldn’t wipe it clean.
For the table that always looked old and gray, they simply covered it with a layer of cloth with exotic colors sent from the western region.

Then they took out the warm scented tea from the things they carried and poured two cups carefully.

They also took out several stacks of delicate and soft pastries while they were at it.

After finishing all this, Wan Xiang walked over, seemingly polite but in the next second, she caught Second Wu and without giving the other party a chance to speak at all, left the room with Baofu and closed the door.

In the room, only Ji Yunxi and Wu Wei’an were left.

The man shrinking in the corner laughed: “Third Miss, what a dignified air.”

Ji Yunxi sat at the table steadily.
The luxurious feel that came out of her whole body made the room look a bit more noble.
