Enter Chang Xiangsi and help Jingzhai fight

Xiao Wei undid her braids, stamped her feet and said, "Oh no! No, no! I said no, no!"

Seeing that she was in a hurry, I closed my mouth and said nothing, making a gesture as if I was going to sew my mouth shut.

After untying her braids, she crawled into the bed, holding the edge of the quilt with her hands. Her big eyes twinkled and she waved to me.

I smiled and nodded, walked outside to blow out the candle, groped my way back to the bed, and lay down side by side with her.

I had slept for a while at night, and I was very energetic at the moment. I couldn't help but ask her curiously: "Xiao Wei, I don't know yet, how old are you this year?"

Xiao Wei replied muffledly from under the quilt: "I am over two hundred years old."

I was surprised and raised my upper body to look at her.

She quickly pressed the corner of the quilt and said angrily, "Girl, you let all the heat go! Why are you so surprised? Aren't you over five hundred years old?"

I thought to myself, my girl, the rule here is that we don't use the unit of 100 to calculate age! You look like a little girl, so I always thought you were 13 or 14 years old. But now you tell me you are over 200 years old. Who wouldn't be surprised?

I cleared my throat and said, "I'm just... because you look so young, I thought you were only over a hundred years old." Wow, I adapted pretty quickly.

She replied: "Over a hundred is so young, I don't even remember it."

I asked curiously, "So what were you like more than a hundred years ago? A hedgehog? And then one day you suddenly became a human and gained memories? Is that right?"

Xiao Wei smiled and said, "Young lady, you really have forgotten everything. As for us fairies, except for those who have cultivated to become human form, most of us are linked to spiritual power. Those with high spiritual power and early spiritual wisdom can change into human form and remain unchanged from birth. Only very rarely can we return to our original form. Look, isn't that what happened to you, young master? A little fairy like me doesn't have high spiritual power either. I live day by day in a daze, and every day is almost the same. How can I remember so much!"

I thought to myself that the days had been the same for more than a hundred years, every day was boring enough, and I couldn't help but shudder.

Xiao Wei tucked the corner of the quilt for me and said, "Are you cold, girl? Who told you to move around and let the heat escape? If you want to know, why not ask the young master tomorrow? He must remember it from childhood to adulthood, and he is the kind who can walk when he is born."

I couldn't help but laugh a little, patted her hands and said, "Hahaha, thank you! That's pretty scary when you think about it. Remembering hundreds of years of things, how tiring it must be every day."

Xiao Wei said vaguely: "So I don't remember... I have been in Tushan Mansion since I can remember. I ate, slept, and played when I woke up. There is nothing special. I don't even know the exact year I was born. The housekeeper of the courtyard counted back three years from the year she picked me up. I am probably more than 230 years old..."

I heard her voice gradually fade away and her breathing become deep, so I closed my eyes and forced myself to sleep. I had a lot of things waiting for me tomorrow.

The next day when I had breakfast, Tu Shanjing was gone. I guess he had gone out to do some work early in the morning.

After breakfast, I asked the waiter to bring two pots of Biluochun tea, a portion of chestnut cake, and a portion of jujube paste cake to my room. I planned not to go out today and to stay in the room to finish writing the manuscript.

I met Ruiyang on the way. He saw me following the waiter carrying a bunch of things and asked curiously, "Hey, girl, are you going to have a tea party in the house?"

I waved my hands and said, "No way! I'm busy writing a book with Xiao Hui and the others!"

Ruiyang smiled and came over to say, "Young lady, you are so hardworking! The young master praised you yesterday, saying that he didn't expect these stories to sell so well. If you like them in the future, I will give you some time to write more."

I smiled and said, "That's great! But I still have to do my job! The master is out now, and I have nothing to do, so I might as well take this opportunity to write more. Later... later, I will have something else to do and won't be able to take care of it."

My main task is to focus on Tu Shanjing, but I cannot let this happen. I know this clearly!

He followed me into the house with a smile on his face, helped the waiter put down the things, and then said to the waiter, "Hey, don't leave yet. I have some tips in my sleeves, but my hands are not convenient. Come on, you pay for it yourself."

The waiter smiled and said, "Sir, I dare not take the tip from the customer's sleeve myself! This is unheard of!"

Ruiyang laughed and said, "Just do it if I tell you to. There are so many people watching. It's okay!"

The waiter said, "How much should I pay?", but he reached into the sleeve of Ruiyang's arm that was not hanging and fumbled around.

Ruiyang smiled at him and said, "You decide for yourself. You will get as much reward as you put in. If you get too much, you can make up for it by working harder in the future!"

The waiter took out a small sum of money, touched it happily, and replied, "Thank you very much, sir! You are really generous. I will definitely serve you well!"

Ruiyang sat down at the table and said with a smile, "That's good to know! Go down, I'll call you if there's anything else."

The waiter bowed and left.

At the table, Xiao Wei was grinding ink and Xiao Hui was spreading paper, ready to start work. Rui Yang reached out and took a piece of date paste cake, eating it while having fun, mumbling: "Girl, the master said you can go shopping and buy anything delicious or fun, why don't you join in the fun?"

I stole a glance at him, seeing how eager he was to try, and couldn't help but laugh: "I'm not that anxious to join in the fun, but I think there are people who are more anxious than me!"

Ruiyang scratched his head with his only free hand, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "The girl saw through it! I've been running around all the time and haven't had time to eat or play well. The glutton in my stomach is also getting antsy!"

I also took a piece of chestnut cake and took a small bite. It was soft and tasty. Then I said, "The chefs of Tushan Mansion and Chenrong Mansion are the best in Central Plains. Are they still not enough to satisfy your greed? Are you sure the food outside is better than that in the mansion?"

He stood up, his eyes widened, and said, "Miss, you don't know that some of these dishes are not available in small restaurants in the market. The main purpose is to try something new! Otherwise, how can this old brand survive for so many years with just a shabby shop? There must be some tricks!"

I raised my eyebrows and said, "Okay, okay! What you said makes sense. I am convinced by you. After we finish writing today's story, let's pack up and go shopping in the afternoon, okay?"

Ruiyang was overjoyed and bowed to me: "That's great! The girl is really good to me!"

Xiao Wei rolled her eyes at him and interrupted, "Who is the girl not nice to? We are about to start writing, brother Ruiyang, please stop making noise and disturbing the girl's train of thought."

Ruiyang immediately fell silent, as if saying, "I'll be good."
