Not wanting to offend her old friend, Xingxianzi reluctantly picked up a shumai and took a small bite.
"Vulgar and greasy."
Xiaoxi, who was waiting nearby, knew that the first plan had failed.
She didn't dare to have too many thoughts, and just kept her head down.
Ao Tianxing didn't even look at Xiao Xi. He knew that Xing Xianzi was too perceptive. If he and Xiao Xi made even the slightest eye contact, Xing Xianzi would notice.
"Get out of here now!" Ao Tianxing ordered.
Xiao Xi hurriedly stepped forward and bent down to remove the shumai in front of Xing Xianzi. Suddenly, she noticed the faint cloud and star pattern on the hem of his clothes. Xiao Xi was shocked. Where had she seen this before?
Shocked, Xingxianzi glanced at Xiaoxi and frowned slightly.
Xiaoxi knew that Xingxianzi was going to be unhappy.
She hurriedly carried the shumai, but in her haste, she bumped into a pillar in the warm room.
With a loud "bang," the shumai were scattered everywhere.
Upon the impact, Xiaoxi ignored the pain and thought to herself: I'm done for.
She hurriedly picked up the steamed dumplings, and a bump gradually appeared on her head. She timidly said, "This servant deserves to die!"
Ao Tianxing lost his composure and immediately stood up, only then realizing he needed to maintain a proper demeanor.
"Hehe, I've never seen General Ao care so much about anyone before, how interesting!"
Actually, Xingxianzi found it quite amusing that the little maid was so flustered and had a bruise on her head, which caused a slight fluctuation in his usually icy emotions.
His lips unconsciously curled into a smile.
Ao Tianxing promptly captured Xing Xianzi's micro-expressions.
"This is a little maid I just took in this year. She's kind of cute with her simple and honest nature."
Hoshino: "She's really silly!"
At this moment, Xiaoxi left the warm pavilion, regretting her earlier rashness.
But she was truly shocked just now, because she saw, Fifth Brother, the cloud and star pattern on Xingxianzi's clothes.
The portrait in the ancient tomb in Myanmar was so old that the person in the portrait was not very clear, but the cloud and star patterns on the person's clothes were still vivid in her memory.
Could the portrait depict the Big Dipper Star Lord, the previous life of her fifth brother, Ye Xingxian?
Xiaoxi was confused and her thoughts were in disarray.
Just then, a servant came to inform her that General Ao had invited her to perform a funny little show.
Xiaoxi knew that this was the second and most crucial step she and her brother Tudi had agreed upon, and Xiaoxi suddenly had a new idea.
She returned to the warm pavilion, this time carrying the props for the performance: two wooden boxes.
"Star Lord, General, Xiao Xi is performing a puppet show for you."
Three meters away from Xingxianzi and the others, a servant had already set up a small tea table.
Xiaoxi placed the larger wooden box on the coffee table, using it as a stage, and took out a simple set from another wooden box to set it up.
A mini-theater was set up.
Then Xiaoxi took out the plush puppet she had made. The puppet could move its limbs and was extremely lifelike.
Xiaoxi begins her performance.
"In a prosperous era, there was a general who had eight sons and one daughter."
One day, the general went on an outing with his four sons and daughters, and they came to a place called the Orchard of Happiness…
The little wooden puppets that Xiaoxi makes are all modeled after her father, her four older brothers, and herself.
She has an exceptional vocal ability, perfectly imitating the voices of her father and several brothers.
Ao Tianxing laughed out loud.
When Xiaoxi imitated Fifth Brother Ye Xingxian's voice, she exclaimed, "What? There's a monster in the orchard?"
When Hoshino heard that it was clearly her own voice, she was stunned for a moment.
