At this point, there is still an hour and a half before dawn.
Wu Er had already fallen asleep.
During these days, Wu Er also became a small official.
He has always been a down-to-earth person, doing things meticulously and leading a busy and fulfilling life.
Someone knocked several times outside his window. He was woken up and got up from the bed. He saw that it was his elder brother.
Wu Er hurriedly took a long gown and put it on, then opened the door and went out.
"Brother, what happened?" Wu Er asked worriedly.
The next moment, a rooster and a hen were stuffed into his arms.
The roosters were fat and strong, and the hens were plump and round. But they all smelled like toilet.
The two chickens squeezed each other and huddled in his arms, staring at him.
Rooster: "Cock-a-doodle-doo."
Hen: "Cluck, cluck."
Wu Er: “???”
He looked up at his brother.
The elder brother himself said indifferently: "Doesn't your mother raise a flock of chickens?"
Wu Er said with difficulty: "Yes."
How was he supposed to understand that his brother woke him up in the middle of the night just to bring him a chicken?
Wu Wei'an nodded as if it was a matter of course: "Then let's raise it together."
He can't raise chickens in his yard because they will shed their feathers, and Xuezhu can't help but pluck all the feathers while sweeping.
Wu Er said with difficulty: "Yes."
Wu Weian left.
He returned to the yard, took a shower, and then returned to his room.
It was less than an hour and a half before dawn, and Ji Yunxi should have fallen asleep.
But she didn't.
When Wu Weian stepped into the room, he could tell from her breathing that she was still awake.
But she didn't speak, and neither did Wu Weian.
The room was dim. Wu Weian walked calmly to the bed and then sat down beside it.
Ji Yunxi suddenly asked, "Why did it get to this point?"
Wu Wei'an replied: "There are quite a lot of people."
Ji Yunxi: "Nothing happened, right?"
Wu Wei'an: "No."
Ji Yunxi finally felt relieved: "Go to sleep."
Wu Wei'an hummed, lay down on the bed, thought for a moment, and asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
It seemed that no matter what happened, she could remain calm. When Fang Yuan's incident happened, she was able to fall asleep quickly.
But why didn't she sleep tonight?
Ji Yunxi was silent.
She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling.
She was asking herself the same question before he came back.
She had actually gone to bed two hours ago.
But Ji Yunxi just couldn't fall asleep.
She even counted sheep.
A faint smell came from the tip of her nose, interrupting her thoughts.
Ji Yunxi sniffed gently, and sniffed again, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
This taste, this is not...
Ji Yunxi ignored his question and asked him, "Why do you smell like a toilet?"
Wu Weian was silent.
He raised his hand, put it to his nose and sniffed: "Is there?"
He just washed it carefully.
"Yes." Ji Yunxi was sure, "So what did you do?"
Wu Wei'an said, "Fertilize."
Ji Yunxi: “…”
Wu Wei'an looked at her inside and asked seriously, "Can you bear it?"
Ji Yunxi replied ruthlessly: "No."
Wu Wei'an sighed softly: "What should I do then?"
Ji Yunxi said coldly: "Go wash up."
Wu Wei'an: "I just washed it and used a lot of your petals."
Ji Yunxi: "Wash it again."
Wu Weian had no choice but to get up and go back to the bathroom.
There was still half a basket of petals left for Ji Yunxi to use for bathing, and he had just grabbed two handfuls.
This time, Wu Weian simply poured out half the basket of petals and immersed himself in the sea of red flowers.
He closed his eyes and placed his hands on the edge of the bathtub, tapping them lightly with his fingertips.
In the bedroom next door, Ji Yunxi lay on the bed for a while, and got up not long after he left.
She lit the lamp, went to the dressing table, picked out a bottle of incense, and applied a little between the bed.
During the Dayu Dynasty, most incense was still burned in the form of incense.
However, Ji Yunxi was not used to it, so she asked someone to make a perfume similar to modern ones.
Of course, without a nozzle, you can only use it like medicated oil.
After Ji Yunxi applied the perfume, she went to open the window.
As soon as the window was opened, I could see the light on in the bathroom next door.
The petals probably couldn't cover up the smell on him.
I don’t know how much fertilizer he used, but the smell follows him everywhere, accompanying him.
Ji Yunxi played with the perfume bottle in her hand, thought for a moment, then stood up and walked out.
She walked out of the bathroom and knocked on the door three times: "It's me."
Wu Weian's voice came from inside, hazy and through the steam in the bathroom: "What's wrong?"
Ji Yunxi said, "I've put the perfume bottle at the door. Pour some into the water. It should help."
After she finished speaking, she bent down and was about to put the perfume bottle on the ground.
"Wait." There was a sound of water coming from inside. Under the light, a figure stood up from the bathtub and walked towards the door step by step.
The wooden door creaked open a crack, and a hand stretched out from inside.
The man had long, white fingers, and clear water droplets slid from his fingers onto the ground, glowing faintly in the moonlight.
It was too late at night and everyone seemed sleepy. He said in a hoarse voice, "Give it to me."
Ji Yunxi lowered her eyes, her long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and the five fingers of her left hand hanging by her side subconsciously curled up.
She frowned and handed over the jade bottle.
The bottle is made of copper engraving technique and is carved with Chilong and Taotie. It is made of fine Hetian jade, which has a moon-like luster.
Wu Weian hid behind the door. He reached for the bottle and his fingers accidentally brushed across the back of her hand.
