Ruyi [published edition]

Ruyi cooked porridge in the evening and cooked two more dishes. When she asked the two of them to eat, she saw that Wu Ciren was peeling lotus pods. I was a little jealous, and when I came back to my senses, I couldn't help but feel that I was funny. Could it be that I was possessed by a demon?

But Wu Ciren had already walked up to him, and asked him very naturally, "Is the rice ready?"

Ruyi said, "Well, let's eat after cooling down."

Then he asked casually, "Have you finished peeling the lotus seeds?"

Wu Ciren said, "I also left some for you."

Ruyi's heart suddenly jumped wildly, she responded indiscriminately, and hurried to the stove.

After eating, Ruyi excitedly ran to look through the lotus pod that Wu Ciren had left for him, but after taking it, she was disappointed and very angry.

After Wu Ciren came back, Ruyi shook a lotus pod and asked him loudly, "Why are they all old?"

Wu Ciren glanced at him and said, "I'll get you out of the fire."

After hearing what he said, Ruyi peeled off a handful without saying a word, then handed it to him with a smile on his face, and said respectfully, "Then please go to the master to get rid of the anger."

Wu Ciren was not polite, so he grabbed some from his hand, chewed it slowly, and said, "It's not bitter enough."

If you think that he did it really well, your teeth itch a little, but you feel embarrassed to have another attack, so you ate a few embarrassingly, biting and biting, suddenly stopped, and asked, "Hey, what is the injury on your body?" How long ago did you suffer?"

Wu Ciren looked at him with a half-smile, and said, "Why do you never forget my injury? Why do you ask so many questions?"

Ruyi's face became hot, and she immediately said angrily, "It's just a casual question, if you don't tell me, can your mother still hide it from me?"

Wu Ciren shook his hand suddenly, the lotus seeds were crushed, and he said to him with a calm face, "Don't ask her nonsense."

Seeing his ugly face, Ruyi felt a little regretful suddenly, this person didn't want to talk about it, so why should she force him?

It's just that I feel a little unwilling after all.

Wu Ciren waited for a long time before saying, "I was injured half a year ago, and she saved me. I pitied her for having no children, so I used some spells to teach her to recognize me as my son, and brought her to move here." At the end, he warned him again, "She is getting old, and she remembers the past things intermittently, so don't mess with her mind."

Ruyi was honest for a while, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration, thinking, is this person explaining to him?I couldn't help but talk again, and asked, "Then what changed in you?"

Wu Ciren took a look at him, and suddenly came over, and fed him what he didn't know in his hand, and he swallowed it when he was flustered.

"What did you eat for me?" Ruyi asked nervously, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Wu Ciren laughed, and said indifferently, "Lianzi."

Where did Ruyi believe him, she turned around and was about to spit it out, but Wu Ciren stretched out her hand to cover her mouth.Ruyi became angry, and grabbed Wu Ciren's hand, desperately trying to struggle.Wu Ciren looked at him seriously, and said, "If you want to stay, don't vomit."

Ruyi was taken aback, but she didn't know what it was like.After a while, he said angrily, "You man! Why are you such a rascal? No wonder everyone hates you!"

The expression on Wu Ciren's face did not change, he just wiped his hands, and then said to him, "The thing you swallowed just now was indeed lotus seeds, but I crushed them, and there was a piece of my down feather in it. "

Ruyi is not stupid, so she understands when she thinks about it, this person said that the down feather...could it be made of birds?It's just that this person fed him that kind of food, I'm afraid he can't trust him. Thinking of this, I feel a little sad.

Wu Ciren asked him, "Do you remember what I said the day before yesterday that Zhu's mother wanted to find a nobleman?"

Ruyi nodded, but didn't understand why this person mentioned it.

Wu Ciren took a deep look at him, with a slight smile on his lips, and said, "Even the person who found me didn't know my real birthday, so she just gave me a random date. The birthday she said was just right. Matching my fake birth date, if her grandson is really sick, I am a fake nobleman, if her grandson is fake, I am afraid that my enemy has found it."

Ruyi's heart moved slightly, remembering that this person said that he had no name, but it was not easy to force him to ask, so he let out an oh, and said clearly, "Are you afraid of hurting that child?"

Wu Ciren sneered and said, "I've never told these people about my birthday. It's fine if he's really sick. Of course, I have a way to cure him. If someone wants to lure me out so that he can plot against me, then Don’t blame me for being rude.”

Ruyi was quiet for a while, then suddenly said, "But you can't do anything right now, can you?"

Wu Ciren gave him a sideways look, and asked back, "Who says I can't do anything?"

Ruyi curled her lips, grabbed Wu Ciren's wrist, turned her palm up, poked those calluses, and said, "Look at your hands? If you have a way, would it be so hard?"

Wu Ciren seemed to have never paid attention to it, and after taking a look, he said, "Is this not good, just like ordinary people."

Ruyi listened to Wu Ciren's tone, and knew that the words were not what he meant, so she didn't want to answer, touched her nose, and suddenly asked, "By the way, who is your enemy family, and why do you have such great supernatural powers?"

Wu Ciren didn't take it seriously, and said, "It may not be him, but we should be on guard first."

Ruyi curled her lips and said, "A dead duck has a hard mouth. Then why don't you just wait?"

Wu Ciren glanced at him, and said contemptuously, "So what if I just look for a real noble person for her? If there is no harm, it will never be related to me."

Ruyi looked at him, saw that his expression was cold, but there was a slight smile on his lips, and his heart trembled for no reason.

As soon as the old man was free, he talked about going to Kongyun Temple at home.Although Wu Ciren was smiling, he didn't agree clearly.

Ruyi looked at it, and suddenly found that after getting along for a long time, he was able to easily distinguish Wu Ciren's real thoughts hidden behind his smile.

For example, now, the old lady said a lot, Wu Ciren didn't refute, not even hum, just nodded again and again, but distress and reluctance could be faintly seen between his brows.

It's like a child who is forced by his parents to do something he hates.

Ruyi couldn't help laughing, thinking that this person still had such a playful side.

Wu Ciren frowned, gave him a hard look, and Ruyi blinked at him with a smile, smiling innocently.Wu Ciren looked at him annoyedly for a while, and went out with the excuse that he was going to water the vegetables.

Ruyi was full of curiosity, so she thought about asking about this person, but she was a little afraid that Wu Ciren would be angry if he found out.It’s just that I couldn’t resist the idea of ​​wanting to know. After hesitating for a long time, I finally asked the old man about Wu Ciren, and asked, “Do you still remember that you saved an injured bird before?”

When the old man saw him asking, he nodded again and again, and said happily, "Why don't you remember? It was just half a year ago. That bird was so beautiful. I have never seen such a majestic bird in my life. Son! It’s so golden, it’s like a divine bird falling from the sky.”

Ruyi opened her mouth and closed it again.

The question came out, but he couldn't figure out what Wu Ciren's true identity was.

bling?After much deliberation, he couldn't figure out what kind of bird would be so golden.

A Wu Ciren made of pure gold slowly appeared in front of Ruyi's eyes, and he suddenly felt chills all over his body, and shook his head again and again.

Ruyi went to the vegetable garden behind the house to help Wu Ciren irrigate the land, but she saw Wu Ciren countless times, not only failed to forget the shining golden Wu Ciren, but became more and more vivid.

Ruyi leaned close to Wu Ciren, watched Wu Ciren set up a frame for Douman, and said, "Hey."

Wu Ciren gave him a sideways look, meaning, if you have something to say, hurry up, and if you have something to say, please let it go. Ruyi hesitated for a while, and seeing that he was impatient, she said, "I know that Kongyun Temple is different from other temples. Write birthday."

The pilgrims of Kongyun Temple all have a "return gift". Although this gift is just a thin piece of paper, it is written more than the blind fortune-tellers outside.

This person wants to help someone find a noble person. Wouldn't it save a lot of trouble?Being able to fulfill the old lady's wish is really a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Wu Ciren looked at him a few times, with a rare expression of approval on his face, and said, "You are very clever."

It was rare for Ruyi to be praised by him, so she couldn't help being a little proud, so she said with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay."

Wu Ciren was still busy putting on airs, Ruyi rubbed her nose boredly, and said suddenly, "By the way, so you are a bird, what kind of bird are you?"

Wu Ciren ignored him, but was busy doing things.

Ruyi knew that this person refused to talk to her, so she muttered in a low voice, "Stingy!"

Wu Ciren turned his head to look at him, and asked him back, "Then you show me your original body?"

Ruyi hesitated for a moment, Wu Ciren laughed and said bluntly, "It's just each other."

Ruyi looked at the disapproval in his eyes, annoyed and wronged in her heart, turned her back and sulked angrily.

He was just asking, but Wu Ciren wanted him to change into his original form. How could it be the same?The jade attached to him is not by his side now, if he transforms into his original body, it will be a jade carp, and there is no water in this bamboo forest, how can he live?

But after thinking about it, Ruyi's anger suddenly disappeared.This person was wary of him, and it was only natural that he would do so.

After all, this person is not alone now, and there is an old man who wants him to serve, so he naturally has to be careful.

But Ruyi still has some bumps in her heart, and she thinks angrily, one day I want you to believe me.

Zhu's mother told Wu Ciren that she worshiped the God of Earth in the Earth Temple, and when she came back, she dreamed at night that she asked a nobleman to play a purple bamboo flute to drive away evil spirits and keep her grandson well.It's just that the nobleman has to match the birthday in his dream, and the purple bamboo that has been born for 88 years has to be cut to make a flute, so that it will be effective.

For this reason, Wu Ciren went to Houshan Bamboo Forest, found one and dug it back.

After watering the vegetable field, Wu Ciren took a hatchet and took a section of the purple bamboo that had been cut during the day, and slowly roasted it by the stove, neither too close nor too far away, but after a while, Wu Ciren's face turned red When I got up, there were thin beads of sweat on my forehead and the tip of my nose.

Ruyi sat on the side, feeling a little distressed, and wanted to help.Wu Ciren didn't want his help, and said, "It's rare to have such a suitable period. If you burn it, you will have nothing."

Ruyi was furious, curled her lips resentfully, and complained, "Then when will we wait?"

Wu Ciren glanced at him, and said slowly, "Originally, it should be dried in the shade by itself, but if you calculate it, it will take two or three years."

Ruyi was so frightened that she almost jumped up, Wu Ciren laughed and said, "If you take the fire and roast it slowly, it will take only three or two hours."

Ruyi was taken aback, it took so long, it might be midnight by the time he finishes baking.

Ruyi hesitated for a moment, and asked, "What will you do if you can't find someone with the same birthday as you?"

If it's really the enemy's trick to lure the enemy, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to deal with.

"Let's talk about it when the time comes." Wu Ciren didn't look at him, but concentrated on roasting that piece of purple bamboo.

Ruyi held back for a long time and said, "Don't do stupid things."

Wu Ciren looked at him in surprise, and after a while, he laughed and said, "Are you talking to me?"

Ruyi said angrily, "You have an old mother on top of you, and you have... my slave, I told you not to do stupid things, is it wrong?"

Only then did Wu Ciren look at him seriously, and asked, "Are you worried about me?"

Ruyi's face turned red, and he stammered, "Who, who is worried about you!"

But he didn't even understand why he was blushing or why he was stammering, so he ran away in a panic.

When Wu Ciren went to bed that night, Ruyi actually knew about it, but she just turned her back to Wu Ciren and remained motionless, pretending to be asleep.

It was almost the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, and the moonlight outside the window was shining brightly, making his heart feel chaotic.

He held his breath, and when he heard Wu Ciren's breathing gradually become shallower and more stable, he turned over gently, and peeked at Wu Ciren's face through the light from the thin paper on the window.

This man was an ordinary person, just looking at his sleeping face, I couldn't help but think of the various expressions of this man during the day, but my heart was a little sweet and a little bored.

Unexpectedly, Wu Ciren opened his eyes suddenly, smiled, and said to him, "You are so energetic, go catch fish in the river tomorrow morning, I want to drink fish soup."

Ruyi was just peeking at him, but when she saw him wake up suddenly, she felt guilty and flustered, she stretched out her hand like a ghost, and slapped Wu Ciren across the face.This is good, even he himself was startled after the slap, he didn't know what kind of demon he was.

Wu Ciren was also a little surprised, but just looked at him without changing his face, as if waiting for him to speak, Ruyi was very upset, and stammered, "Please, you annoying mosquito." Then turned over in a panic , continued to pretend to be asleep, but his heart was disobedient, beating wildly.

Ruyi was not angry because Wu Ciren asked him to catch fish tomorrow morning.He doesn't shy away from these things, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimps, what do dried shrimps eat, river mud!It's okay for a big fish like him to eat small fish.

What made Ruyi angry was Wu Ciren's natural tone, as well as herself who wanted to agree on the spot.

Even if he really signed the deed of selling himself, and he is not a slave, why should he listen to this guy?

What's more, even he himself didn't know why he became obsessed and went to peek at Wu Ciren, but he was caught by the other party, which made him feel guilty, as if he had done something shameful.

Wu Ciren took the opportunity to slap Wu Ciren, but he didn't wait for any explanation, and his face was not good-looking.But after all, she had to get up early, and she didn't talk to him. With a cold face, she also turned over and fell asleep with her back facing him.

Ruyi was quiet for a while, and when she heard that this person had really fallen asleep this time, the tense string in her heart was finally loosened.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help regretting it. As the saying goes, you don't hit someone in the face when you hit someone.I don't know how Wu Ciren will deal with him when he wakes up?

Early the next morning, Wu Ciren went into the city with a load on his shoulders.

When Wu Ciren woke up early in the morning, Ruyi wanted to get up too, but Wu Ciren held her down and said, "I'll have fish soup when I come back at noon, so go catch it for me in the river."

Ruyi didn't dare to provoke him, so she obediently agreed, and looked down at Wu Ciren's expression, feeling that this person's complexion was not as good-looking as usual.
