Chapter 63: Falling Flowers Are Bewitching
Lingxiang had just said that she wanted to help everyone practice, and Maidong didn't refuse at all and agreed without hesitation.
Isn’t this what we want? This way we can get closer to Xinyi, so why not do it?
Therefore, when Long Qi and Mai Dong returned to the Bamboo Garden together, the first thing people asked about was not Ling Xiang's injury, but they were surprised why Mai Dong came.
The most embarrassed person was Xinyi. This girl had been very enthusiastic towards him before, and this time, he had no one to complain to. Looking at Maidong's burning eyes, he always had the illusion that he was the cattle and sheep on the table.
But just as Lingxiang said, Maidong was really powerful. After several fights, Long Qi, Liu Xia and Zhao Wuyang were all defeated.
Especially Long Qi, after he blocked Mai Dong's Flying Leaf Palm with his sword, the hand holding the sword was so shocked that it felt numb in the palm of his hand, and the Longyuan Sword also kept ringing for a long time.
Such extraordinary strength was truly astonishing, and Zhao Wuyang was so frightened that he sighed in his heart: This woman is as fierce as a tiger.
However, when it came to Xinyi's turn, the situation was completely different. Although Maidong let him off the hook, her strength was still the same. It was so strong that she even broke a large rock beside her, but she couldn't hit Xinyi no matter what.
What a joke! Seeing Long Qi and the others being beaten black and blue, how could he let Mai Dong get even a little bit of damage? It was too late to hide, so he definitely wouldn't fight.
The two of them were like a cat playing with a mouse, and Liu Xia yawned as he watched.
Maidong was also anxious at this time. She wanted to perform well in front of Xinyi, but she didn't expect him to be so agile. He always dodged her when he was about to touch her.
Just after passing each other for the last time, Maidong rolled up his sleeves and his luck soared into the sky. Suddenly, flowers flew like butterflies and illusions appeared everywhere.
It turned out to be the Falling Flower Palm, a new move she had recently mastered, which struck the opponent unexpectedly with a charming mind.
And Xinyi seemed to be really confused, staring at Maidong motionlessly.
Maidong immediately felt proud in his heart: How about it, you can't take your eyes off me after seeing my graceful figure!
Thinking of this, he put away his skills and did not deliver the last palm strike.
Meanwhile, Xinyi was still staring at Maidong, eyes full of disbelief...
…
"Brother Lu! Let's go to the stove to roast peanuts. The village just delivered a lot of raw peanuts a few days ago, and they are now in the kitchen." The little girl came in from outside, shaking the two little tufts of hair on her head.
The "Brother Lu" she was referring to was practicing calligraphy in a horse stance at this time. When he heard the voice, he smiled and raised his head.
"Mother won't let us play around in the stove. If we don't do it right, there'll be a fire. The cooks will cook it and send it to each room later. Please be patient."
The little girl pouted when she heard this:
"Oh, cooking doesn't smell as good as roasting. We just need to be careful and nothing will go wrong."
"But I'm practicing now..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw the girl pulling her sleeves and shaking them left and right.
"We can practice tomorrow, but if we don't go now, there will be nothing to roast..."
The young man smiled and touched the girl's head, then reluctantly agreed: "Okay..."
…
Before Maidong could stand still, Xinyi stepped forward and grabbed her, asking anxiously:
"Why do you have a tattoo on your left arm?!"
Maidong was stunned. Could it be that Xinyi didn't like her tattoo?
"I've had this since I was little. My master said there must be a wound here, and I think I got it tattooed to cover it up..."
Xinyi's eyes turned red when she heard this. Looking at the wheat ear tattoo on Maidong's forearm, her thoughts suddenly surged.
…
"What did your mother tell you? Why didn't you listen?!" the woman said, and the ruler in her hand fell hard on the boy's hand.
Another woman nearby quickly put down her baby girl and stepped forward to stop them.
"Don't be angry, sister. If you want to blame someone, blame that damn girl for getting herself hurt. How can you blame anyone else?"
The little girl also came forward crying and choked up, "Aunt, please don't blame Brother Lu. It's all my fault. I had to drag him to roast peanuts."
The woman holding the ruler quickly picked up the girl, held her hand and blew gently: "It must hurt a lot, this burn will leave a scar, and it will not look good in the future." As she spoke, she wiped the tears from the girl's face.
"It doesn't matter. Brother Lu will marry me in the future anyway, so I'm not afraid of being embarrassed!" The girl said this but started crying again - this really hurts!
Another woman nearby exclaimed, "You keep talking about this all the time. You're so young and you have no shame!"
The little girl cried as she answered, "This...this is nothing to be ashamed of. I must tell you often, especially in front of Brother Lu, so that he won't forget to marry me in the future..."
These words amused the two women, and the young man kneeling beside them had his head lowered, but the corners of his mouth were raised.
"But it's not good for a girl to have scars. Your brother has someone who is good at tattooing. Why don't you ask him to tattoo a flower on the girl to cover it up?" The woman asked with a smile.
But the little girl was not happy at this time: "Aunt, aunt, I don't want a flower tattoo, I want a wheat ear tattoo. Then the litchi oatmeal porridge will be delicious..."
…
"It was winter when my master picked me up, and he saw a wheat ear tattoo on my hand, so he gave me this name." Maidong said as he tried to break away from Xinyi - he pinched her so hard that it hurt a little.
Xinyi was stunned for a moment before letting her go and heading back inside...
It's her! It's actually her!
His Guining is still alive!
Xinyi didn't know how to face it for a moment, feeling both ecstatic and confused.
He needs to be alone...
Everyone was stunned by Xinyi's behavior. Zhao Wuyang was particularly curious, but he didn't dare ask Maidong—the woman was too fierce, and the place where he'd just been hit still ached. He clutched his chest and whispered to Liu Xia what Maidong had done to make Brother Xinyi so depressed, but Liu Xia had no idea. She simply shrugged, clutching her chest, which had also been hit—"It hurts!"
Long Qi didn't pay much attention to what happened, he was just thinking about what Lingxiang was doing.
What could Lingxiang do? She just lay in bed and waited for Master Fuyin to change her dressing.
"You're really not shy," Master Fuyin said while carefully wrapping the fine cloth around Lingxiang. He smiled and said, "Your own disciple still needs my Xiao Maidong to train him, and you let me, an old man, run around for you."
Lingxiang hissed upon hearing this, "Brother, how can you say that? We're brothers and sisters, so why should we distinguish between your family and mine? Besides, you know Maidong, that girl, she's very ruthless when it comes to hitting me. My delicate feet have been through a lot of trouble with her in the past two days."
"You're just talking nonsense," Master Fuyin tied a knot and began to untie the fine cloth on Lingxiang's other foot. "Mai Xiaodong's medical skills are truly my inheritance, yet you're still slandering her. It seems your mouth is the one that's hurt this time."
"To be honest, I felt really wronged when I was injured this time. If Linglong was still in my care, I wouldn't have to endure this torture!"
Lingxiang seemed to be saying it casually, but Master Fuyin paused for a moment, but continued to remove the fine cloth in an instant.
But this small action was seen by Lingxiang.
"Brother, are you hiding something from me?"
