Fu Jingyao stared at the strange paper figure for a full five seconds.
He coughed lightly. "Are Xiao Jin and the others elves?"
Lin Xi smiled and said, "That's right. When I was little, my master wasn't at the Taoist temple. Xiao Jin and the others accompanied me and went down the mountain with me to catch ghosts. The five little elves are like my family."
"Otherwise, what did you think it was?"
Fu Jingyao's face froze.
Remembering what he had just said, he really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Today, I experienced all the most embarrassing things in my life.
Fu Jingyao forced himself to remain calm, "I didn't expect Xiao Jin to be an elf."
Lin Xi expressed her understanding, saying, "You'll get used to it; the five little sprites are very easy to distinguish."
She looked at the little paper figures and said, "Go and say hello to Fu Jingyao."
"Yes, Master."
Xiao Jin led four little paper figures to Fu Jingyao's side and looked him over curiously.
Little Jin had a question: "Master, what should we call him?"
This question also stumped Lin Xi.
She said, "Please make yourselves at home."
Xiao Jin used her clever mind and said, "He married the master, so he should be called the master's husband."
The four little paper figures offered their opinions.
Xiao Mu: "Master's husband."
Xiao Shui: "Master's lover."
Little Fire: "Master's man."
Little Earth: "My master's treasure!"
The five little paper figures quickly made their decision: "Master's treasure, this one is good."
Lin Xi laughed when she heard this address. "Haha, I just remembered something funny. You guys continue, don't mind me."
Fu Jingyao smiled helplessly and accepted the strange title.
One by one, the little paper figures introduced themselves.
Little Jin was the first; he stretched out his little hand.
"Hello, my darling, I am the God of Mining, Little Gold."
Fu Jingyao looked at the bowl cut hairstyle in front of him, pretended to be calm and composed, and shook hands with Xiao Jin.
The second one, Xiao Mu, said, "Hello, Master's treasure, I am Xiao Mu, the Wood Spirit."
Little Water: "Hello, Master's treasure, I am Narcissus, Little Water."
Little Fire: "Hello, Master's treasure. I am Little Fire, the God of Fire."
Little Earth: "My master's treasure, hello, I am the mountain god, Little Earth."
Fu Jingyao carefully observed each of the paper figures, determined never to make a mistake again.
He remembered it.
Little Gold Pot Lid, Little Wooden Wavy Curls, Little Water Single Ponytail, Little Fire Afro, Little Earth Double Buns.
Fu Jingyao closed his eyes briefly. "Linxi, Xiaojin, Xiaomu, Xiaoshui, Xiaohuo, and Xiaotu, from now on we are a family."
The five little paper figures clapped their hands excitedly, "Welcome our master's treasure to the big family!"
I slept well all night.
The next day, Lin Xi went to the antique street to set up her stall as usual.
I didn't go yesterday, and the elderly folks must be talking about her.
As soon as she came downstairs, Fu Jingyao waved to her, "You're up, come and have breakfast."
"They're here." Lin Xi walked over and took a look.
Millet porridge, soup dumplings, pumpkin steamed buns, ham and cheese sandwiches, fish maw stewed in milk, strawberry French toast, fruit platter, and a bowl of hot and sour noodles!
Lin Xi's eyes widened instantly.
"You did all of this?"
Fu Jingyao answered truthfully, "Aunt Wu came over early this morning to make it."
Lin Xi asked, "Where is Aunt Wu?"
"Let's go." Fu Jingyao pushed the hot and sour noodles in front of her. "Eat up."
Lin Xi picked up her chopsticks. "Aunt Wu is too tired from running around every day. Let's prepare a guest room for her to stay in."
Fu Jingyao paused for two seconds, then said, "Aunt Wu has her own ideas."
At 7:30 this morning, Aunt Wu saw him in a panic, "Young Master, you're back."
"Aunt Wu, what's wrong with Lin Xi being sick?"
"Young Master, let me explain," Aunt Wu said, launching into a long explanation.
In conclusion, he shouldn't have left Linxi alone to go abroad right after getting married, and he shouldn't have slept in separate rooms right after getting married, as this is not good for the relationship between husband and wife.
Wu Ma was exasperated, saying, "I am a top-level appraiser of online literature, with extensive experience."
"Young Master, I know you've never been in a relationship, so I stayed up all night researching and made a dating guide. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Wu Ma pulled out a thick picture book and handed it to him without hesitation, then turned and ran away.
Fu Jingyao flipped through the picture album and felt completely distraught.
What is all this nonsense? Where did Aunt Wu learn this from? Lin Xi must never see this picture book.
Fu Jingyao recalled the contents of the picture album, and the tips of his ears turned red involuntarily. He drank three glasses of ice water before he calmed down.
Lin Xi glanced at him. "Are you thirsty?"
Fu Jingyao said in a deep voice, "A doctor friend said that drinking more water in the morning is good for your health."
Lin Xi reminded, "You should drink warm water."
Fu Jingyao nodded, "I'll be more careful next time."
Wu Ma is right. Since you're married, you have to take responsibility. He hasn't shown enough concern for Lin Xi.
Fu Jingyao looked up.
Lin Xi wore a white T-shirt and casual pants, dressed very simply.
He curled his lip, "Don't you like the dresses in your closet? I've never seen you wear them."
Lin Xi puffed out her cheeks. "It's inconvenient to fight while wearing a skirt."
Fu Jingyao frowned slightly. "Does fortune-telling require fighting? Isn't that dangerous?"
Lin Xi replied when she had a moment, "I occasionally go to catch ghosts. Don't worry, no ghost has appeared that can beat me yet."
Ghost hunting was beyond Fu Jingyao's comprehension, and he couldn't help, so he could only tell Lin Xi, "Be careful."
Lin Xi nodded.
After finishing her meal, she slung her little backpack over her shoulder and went out. Fu Jingyao walked beside her, saying, "I'll take you there."
Lin Xi waved her hand, "No need, you go ahead with your work. I'll take the subway, it's very convenient."
Fu Jingyao raised an eyebrow, "I'm ashamed to be seen by others?"
