Chapter 14 Lying on the Board
Ji Zhisui did not forget the purpose of her coming out. She looked around to divert her attention and see if she could pick some wild vegetables and mushrooms to take back.
Pei Yian, who was standing by, spoke first: "Are those people making my wife unhappy?"
Ji Zhisuizhi felt that the man next to her was too close to her. They were less than an inch apart, and she seemed to be able to smell a faint scent of cedar.
She felt a little awkward, and moved slightly to the side. His words were tentative and scheming, and a little dangerous. She should stay away from this man.
Pei Yian noticed all of Ji Zhisui's little movements, but he pretended not to notice and waited for an answer.
"Yes, I've been annoyed with those naughty kids for a long time!" Ji Zhisui said righteously, without any awareness that he was an adult bullying children. Those naughty kids really needed to be taught a lesson.
"Naughty child, your description is very appropriate." Pei Yian chuckled and seemed to be in a good mood.
Although Ji Zhisui deliberately kept a distance from them, the distance between them made her feel itchy in her ears, her heartbeat quickened, and her eyes darted around when the sound reached her ears.
She now felt a little regretful about how she had agreed to be with someone so easily before.
At this time, there was a rustling sound in the originally silent forest.
The sound was very small, but Pei Yian had sharp senses and easily caught it. He grabbed the wrist of the person next to him who was trying to move forward.
Ji Zhisui was a little confused. When he turned around and saw Pei Yian's solemn expression, he tactfully kept silent.
Pei Yian grabbed Ji Zhisui's hand and tiptoed towards the direction where the sound came from. He took out a few stones from somewhere and threw them out from a distance.
Although his martial arts skills were ruined, he still had some accuracy after years of practice. Then, there was a sound of something falling to the ground.
When I pulled aside the grass, I found a wild rabbit inside. It was very small, only the size of a palm.
Pei Yian stepped forward, picked up the little wild rabbit, and placed it in front of Ji Zhisui: "My lady, this is for you."
Ji Zhisui's gaze was not on the rabbit at all, but on Pei Yian.
The guy's originally normal complexion suddenly turned pale, which was obviously a side effect of using too much force.
She didn't know what to say. Couldn't this guy be more careful? Was eating more important, or was health more important? Was it worth all the pain for a rabbit?
Feeling a little resentful, Ji Zhisui rolled his eyes at Pei Yian, but ultimately took the little wild rabbit. He didn't dare let him carry anything, fearing that it would aggravate his condition.
The eye roll was so obvious that Pei Yian didn't know what he had done wrong. He even wondered if she disliked the rabbit because it was too small.
I looked at the size of the rabbit, which was only the size of a palm, and it seemed that I could not eat many bites.
He looked closely and saw some red mushrooms growing not far away. He walked forward, picked all of them, and handed them to Ji Zhisui. Now she shouldn't be disgusted by them, right?
Ji Zhisui looked at these bright red mushrooms and then saw someone's serious expression. He couldn't help but laughed, covering his mouth. "If you eat these, you'll fall sick."
This red mushroom looks not much different from the red mushroom, but its color is too bright and its stem is plain white. It is a poisonous mushroom.
Although he didn't quite understand what "Cangbanban" meant, Ji Zhisui's performance made Pei Yian instantly understand that these red mushrooms could not be eaten.
He threw away all the red mushrooms in his hands and pretended to be calm as if nothing had happened.
Ji Zhisui's laughter only lasted for a moment, and she didn't dare to be too presumptuous, in case this guy held a grudge!
Pei Yian didn't take this matter to heart, but he felt frustrated for the first time in a long time.
The two of them wandered around outside, picked a lot of red mushrooms, and then went back.
After returning home, the rabbit in Ji Zhisui's arms was welcomed by the two children, especially Pei Tiantian, who couldn't let it go.
The little wild rabbit was just knocked unconscious and had no other problems, so it was adopted.
Ji Zhi had no objection. The rabbit was too small and didn't have much meat. Raising a rabbit was easy, and it could be fed with wild grass and vegetables.
"Third brother, third sister-in-law, please give the rabbit a name!" Pei Tiantian held the snow-white little wild rabbit in her arms.
Ji Zhisui looked at Pei Yian, clearly asking him to make the decision.
If she remembered correctly, the male protagonist was both civil and military, and although his martial arts skills were now useless, he should have been well-read, so a small matter like naming him would be a piece of cake.
Pei Tiantian followed her sister-in-law's gaze and looked at her third brother, waiting for his answer.
So, under everyone's expectation, Pei Yian slowly uttered a few words, "How about calling me Xiaobai?"
This is a white-haired rabbit, and the name is very appropriate.
Ji Zhisui really couldn't help but chuckled again. It's not that the name is bad, it's just that it's too ordinary and too common. You can find a lot of it on the street.
Originally, she thought the male lead would have a domineering and poetic name!
But this also gave her a deeper understanding of Pei Yian. The male protagonist she saw in the book was decisive and ruthless, in control of everything, and above everyone else.
But when I really got to know him, I found that he was no longer a character portrayed in the book, but more real and vivid.
"What do you think, my lady?" Pei Yian was not annoyed even though he was laughed at.
Ji Zhisui met Pei Yian's gaze again, but this time, his eyes were smiling.
Ji Zhisui quickly turned his eyes away, pretending not to see anything, "Then call me Bai Xue!"
"Yeah, Bai Xue sounds nice." Pei Tiantian agreed.
"The name my wife gave is indeed better than mine."
"Yes, Sui Niang, the name you chose is very nice." Pei Ersao praised.
Being so enthusiastically supported and praised by the Pei family, Ji Zhisui's face couldn't help but feel a little hot. The name he chose was a common one, not very good, but being praised by the Pei family like this, he felt unique.
In the end, the little white rabbit was named Snow White.
After half a month's journey, they finally arrived in Lingnan.
Although they still had to sleep in the open air along the way, the Pei family lived a much better life than before. They had vegetables and soup, and sometimes they could even eat bacon.
Pei Tiantian and Pei Xinghai, who had lost a lot of weight, had some flesh on their faces and were not as thin as before.
Their destination was Huizhou City in Lingnan.
When Ji Zhisui saw Huizhou City, his eyes lit up. This seemed to be the place where the great scholar Su recorded eating 300 lychees a day.
Although the Lingnan region is extremely hot and humid, this climate is very suitable for the growth of fruits. The fruits here have high sugar content and are relatively sweet. When you think about it this way, this place doesn't seem so bad.
She looked at the various buildings in Huizhou City with some curiosity. On the way, they passed by some small towns. The two were very different. The streets and buildings in Huizhou City were more prosperous.
