"Haha~, sir, you're not writing a poem, you just want something."
Seeing his two only female apprentices looking somewhat aggrieved and unconvinced after being hit on the head, Master Ji smiled helplessly, took two steps forward, and began to explain to them.
"What is that? What is that?"
Upon hearing Master Ji's words, Little Swallow hopped and skipped, turning her head to ask with curiosity in her eyes.
"This thing? It's a small octagonal pavilion, unafraid of the sun and rain. People hide from the Thunder God under the pavilion, and the Eight Immortals cry endlessly on the pavilion."
Erkang, who was following behind, glanced at the person next to Ertai and spoke as he did in the original drama.
He patted Yongqi on the shoulder.
"Let's go get it."
"It's always better to have something in reserve and not need it than to not have it at all."
Yongqi agreed with Erkang's words and nodded.
The two turned and left.
"Ertai, do we have umbrellas in our carriage?"
Chen Nian reached out and tugged at Ertai's sleeve, looking at the person who was listening to her with his head turned to the side, and asked in a low voice.
In the original drama, there weren't enough umbrellas, and it's unclear whether her and Qing'er's carriage had any.
With her constitution, there's a 99.9% chance she'll catch a cold if she gets caught in the rain.
Although Imperial Physician Chang had prepared various illnesses she might encounter, he also researched and developed a non-bitter medicine formula.
Even if the medicine wasn't bitter anymore, she still didn't like drinking it because all medicine has some toxicity.
...
"Yes, I'll go get it."
Ertai listened to Chen Nian's words and nodded. She was frail, and he had anticipated all sorts of situations she might encounter on her journey. He had prepared almost everything he could think of that might be useful.
"good."
Hearing Ertai say yes, Chen Nian breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good that she has it; she really doesn't want to take medicine.
Having received Chen Nian's words, Ertai turned around and followed to get the umbrella.
The group stopped by the river with the emperor, enjoying the scenery while waiting for others.
Unnoticed by everyone, Xiao Yanzi and Benjamin had a conversation. Even the usually carefree Xiao Yanzi noticed Benjamin's strange attitude, and her high spirits diminished considerably.
While waiting for Ertai's silence, she looked left and right, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Xiao Yanzi standing to the side looking a little lonely. She then looked at Qing'er, who was talking to Yongxuan beside her, and her desire to call Qing'er over to join them vanished.
He turned around and walked towards Xiao Yanzi by himself.
Guess who I am?
Chen Nian raised his hand and covered Xiao Yanzi's eyes, deliberately lowering his voice as he spoke.
"Nian Nian~"
Suddenly everything went dark. Little Swallow heard a sweet, soft voice behind her, even though it was lowered. She raised her hand and touched Chen Nian's hand, then gave him her answer.
"Little Swallow, how did you guess it so quickly? You're so clever!"
Noticing that Xiao Yanzi was in a low mood, Chen Nian praised her enthusiastically.
"Niannian—, what's wrong with the turtledove?"
Xiao Yanzi removed Chen Nian's hand from her eyes, went behind Chen Nian, wrapped her arms around his waist, and rested her head on his shoulder, her words filled with deep confusion.
"Bad mood?"
Listening to Xiao Yanzi's words, Chen Nian followed Xiao Yanzi's gaze and saw Benjamin sitting alone by the river, looking somewhat lonely. He then turned his head to look at Xiao Yanzi, who was perched on his shoulder with a puzzled expression.
She didn't know what to say. She was completely clueless about relationships. She was only good at observing, not at offering advice.
"Niannian, Little Swallow—"
