Chapter 90 Ninety Slashes



On the way to Xishi, she went around a street and visited Mrs. Lin at Nanshan Academy.

As soon as she entered the school, she heard no sound of reading, nor did she see any students or Master Lin. She was wondering when Lin Hongchu came to the front yard.

"Sister, you're here." These days, Xu Jiang came to visit every other day, and Lin Hongchu was used to it.

"Why aren't the Master and the students here?"

"I went to the suburbs to watch the Spring Festival early in the morning. This is what I do every year at the beginning of spring."

It seems that Master Lin also attaches great importance to farming. Xu Jiang remembered that when she went to the village to participate in the community sacrifice a few years ago, she had the idea of publishing those agricultural songs into a book. She could ask Master Lin for advice on this matter and hear his opinion.

"Where's my aunt?"

"I took some medicine and fell asleep. Maybe it's spring sleepiness. I feel tired all day long."

"I'll go and take a look."

Xu Jiang tiptoed to Madam Lin's room, where she was sound asleep. She felt her forehead and found it was warm. Seeing that she looked calm, she felt relieved and quietly left.

Lin Hongchu was waiting outside the door. When he saw her come out, he asked, "How is it?"

"Sleeping soundly."

"That's good."

Xu Jiang saw that she was wearing the jade ring and ribbon that Yuan Yanyan had chosen for her that day. She grabbed her and spun her around, praising her: "It looks good and suits you very well. Yanyan has good taste."

Lin Hongchu pursed her lips and smiled, "I'm just embarrassed. She always sends me things, but I don't know what to say in return."

Xu Jiang gave her some advice, "Copy some poems and write some elegant seals and give them to her. She will probably like them."

The little girl's eyes lit up, "That's good."

"I'll bring you some seal stones and patterns tomorrow. You can practice with them in your free time. You've learned this skill with great difficulty, so don't let it become rusty."

"It's great to have a sister." Lin Hongchu hugged her waist and snuggled into her arms.

Xu Jiang's heart was softened by her, and he rubbed her. The two of them rubbed her for a long time before Lin Hongchu sent Xu Jiang out.

Before leaving, Lin Hongchu asked awkwardly, "How's the new Liang Mo?"

"Very good." Xu Jiang saw that she was about to pout, so he quickly pinched her lips and coaxed her, "But not as good as you."

Lin Hongchu snorted twice and said, "Then tell him to study hard and not let his sister down." Her eyes turned red again, "Don't imitate me."

"Oh, my little ancestor, please don't cry." Xu Jiang quickly pressed her eyelids to hold back the tears. "You said that like a needle piercing my heart. What's the point of being so unworthy? If you really treat me like a sister, don't say such nonsense."

Lin Hongchu wiped his eyes and forced a smile, "I spoke out of turn, I deserve a beating."

Xu Jiang twisted her mouth and said, "You deserve a beating, but considering your devotion to your sister, I will forgive you this time." Then she said gently, "Go back and stay with your aunt. I'll bring you some delicious food tomorrow."

"What's delicious?"

"I don't know yet, you might as well guess first."

Lin Hongchu showed an expectant expression.

Seeing that she was no longer sad, Xu Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. He then rubbed her head and got on the donkey. "I'll be leaving first."

"Well, be careful on the road."

"knew."

Seeing Xu Jiang walking away, Lin Hongchu's tears, which had been held back, began to flow again.
