Chapter 729: Scheming Cousin and Cold-blooded General 5
*
The weather is getting hotter as summer begins. During the day, Ji Chi occasionally reviews his lessons in the pavilion beside the pond in the backyard, as it is the coolest and most comfortable place.
Aunt Zhao gave birth to a son like him, so naturally she hoped that Ji Chi could be more successful, so she attached great importance to his studies.
Ji Yao and Yun Wu went to the pavilion to see him at the same time as before, only to see Ji Chi still studying poetry and books, holding the scroll with a frown on his brows.
"Second brother is so miserable. He doesn't even have time to rest. Auntie must be too anxious..."
Ji Yao's voice fell into Ji Chi's ears. He looked up and saw Ji Yao walking in carelessly, followed by her beautiful little cousin.
"Ayao, cousin, you are here..."
Ji Chi rubbed his brows helplessly, then put the book aside temporarily.
The pavilion is shaded by trees and is located beside a pond. It is quite cool with the occasional breeze.
"My second cousin has been studying hard, so I asked the kitchen to make some sour plum soup for him to quench his thirst."
Yun Wu said softly as she carefully took out a bowl of sour plum soup from the food box and placed it on the table.
"My cousin is still the best. Look at Ah Yao, she always comes to make trouble for me..."
Ji Chi was about to cry. Every day his mother pulled his ears and made him study. His younger sister Ayao was heartless and carefree.
Ever since the little cousin with a miserable life came to the prime minister's residence, there is finally someone who understands and cares about him.
Woo woo woo, he doesn't allow anyone to disobey his cousin!
Yun Wu smiled a little embarrassedly. A beautiful woman's smile was more beautiful than countless colors. Ji Chi was stunned.
When Ji Yao jumped out of the pavilion to feed the fish in the pond outside, Yun Wu raised her hand and casually tucked her hair behind her ears, then said softly:
"Ayao is still young, and her innocence is enviable. She will grow up to be sensible. Even I am now old enough to discuss marriage. Time flies."
"Yes, the marriage proposal is a top priority, and it cannot be taken lightly..."
Ji Chi clapped his palms and said, with a very serious look on his handsome face.
"My cousin is beautiful and kind-hearted. I wonder what kind of man can be a good match for her."
"Second cousin, you are joking. I am of humble origins and I am very lucky to be able to come to the capital under the protection of my aunt. How can I dare to expect a good marriage?"
As Yun Wu spoke, the corners of her eyes turned red. She twirled her handkerchief and smiled at Ji Chi softly, somewhat embarrassedly.
She always knew how to use her beauty to win the sympathy of others, but she couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, so she would still tightly hold the handkerchief and look a little evasive.
Ji Chi didn't notice anything unusual at all. Seeing his little cousin's smile, his cheeks turned red. He slammed the table and said quickly:
"Don't worry, cousin! Since you call me cousin, I will naturally treat you as my own sister. There are so many young men from good families in the capital, and I, your cousin, will definitely help you pick them out."
Yun Wu couldn't hold back the shy smile on her face. Wait, why is this direction a little wrong...
Ji Chi seemed very happy. He was a real face control. Ever since his little cousin came, he was stunned every time he saw her.
Now he feels more and more that there are few people in the capital who can match his cousin. As a brother, he feels... very proud!
Look at the way Ji Chi looks at her... there seems to be some brotherly love in his eyes?!
Yun Wu's little thoughts were instantly gone, and her little head drooped slightly. In her ears, she could still hear Ji Chi's nagging voice.
It seems that Liuyue was wrong. Her second cousin had no other thoughts at all and treated her like his own sister.
Looks like we need to find another candidate...
Yun Wu sighed silently in her heart, turned her head to look at the scenery outside the pavilion, and inadvertently looked up and suddenly met the eyes of the man on the second floor of the attic next to her.
The man in the attic was wearing ink-colored clothes, his hair was tied up and he wore a high crown. His cold eyebrows were very handsome, and his dark eyes were deep.
It’s Ji Siyan.
The direction he was looking at just now... seemed to be looking at her.
Yun Wu's heart trembled. She thought for a moment, pursed her pink lips, and nodded slightly in the direction of Ji Siyan, which could be regarded as a greeting.
Ji Siyan in the attic still had an indifferent expression, and the next second he turned around and no longer looked at her.
Yun Wu lowered her eyes slightly, and couldn't help wondering in her heart, could it be that this cousin didn't like her at all?
Two days ago, when she went to deliver cakes, although she didn't even see him, he was still very cold to her...

In the attic, Ji Siyan was standing with his hands behind his back, his brows tightly furrowed. The two subordinates in front of him were reporting on the recent investigation of military pay.
"Tell the people stationed next to Duke Qi to stay put and not alert the enemy before finding any clues."
Ji Siyan gave the order, then slowly turned around, his eyes involuntarily falling on the girl sitting in the pavilion again.
Just now he was listening to his subordinates reporting trivial matters, and when he looked down he saw that familiar figure.
At that time, he saw Yun Wu and Ji Chi talking about something, and he didn't know why he stared at her for a second time.
As a result, Yun Wu turned around and the two of them looked at each other.
Ji Siyan's brows deepened, and the aura he exuded became even more terrifying. The two soldiers behind him didn't know whether they should speak or not.
Yun Wu did not disturb Ji Chi from reading and practicing calligraphy. She said some caring words and then left the pavilion.
I had only walked a few steps along the gravel road when I passed by the attic and happened to meet Ji Siyan coming down from above.
He was wearing a dark-colored robe today and his tall figure made it hard to ignore him. After he walked down the stairs, he saw her and stopped.
"Good afternoon, cousin."
Yun Wu bowed slightly and saluted. It was afternoon and the sun was shining brightly. She looked particularly beautiful in her green dress.
The sunlight fell on her face as if it was coated with a layer of gauze. As she bent over to salute, a drop of crystal sweat on her slender neck slid along her collarbone into her lapel.
Ji Siyan was much taller than Yun Wu so he could see it clearly. He suddenly felt his body a little stiff, and the sun seemed to be even hotter.
"cousin?"
Seeing that he didn't respond, Yun Wu raised her head and called out in a daze. Because of the hot weather, her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were a little misty.
Ji Siyan shifted his gaze away somewhat unnaturally, his broad palms tightened slightly, and he pursed his thin lips as if hesitating about something.
Then Yun Wu heard him say in a low and slightly hoarse voice with an expressionless face:
"Just now...I wasn't peeking at you."
