He tiptoed slightly and looked over Wu Weian's head, only to see his third sister's beautiful hair.
It seemed that his third sister had fallen asleep just now, and was so angry because she was woken up by him.
Ji Mingyan said aggrievedly: "You didn't lock the door either."
Ji Yunxi glanced at Wu Weian.
Wu Weian had his back to her, but his back seemed to have eyes. He quickly added in a low voice, "You were the last one to come in."
Ji Yunxi: "Shut up."
Wu Weian was very easy to talk to. He kept his mouth shut while watching his nose and his heart.
Ji Mingyan glanced at his brother-in-law with sympathy, and quickly walked over to Wu Weian, handing him a string of candied haws. Then he bent one knee and climbed onto the bed, stretching out his arm to pass the candied haws to the innermost part: "Here, Third Sister, this is yours!"
He bought so many that everyone in the family got one.
Including the maids and servants in the mansion.
Ji Yunxi said, "I rinsed my mouth."
Ji Mingyan licked his own string of candied haws while placing the other string in front of Ji Yunxi: "Rinse your mouth after eating."
Ji Yunxi hated brushing her teeth after eating and then brushing again. She thought it was too much trouble: "No."
Ji Mingyan was a man who would not give up until he reached the Yellow River. "Third sister, this is what Sixth Brother bought specially. Everyone has it and everyone has eaten it. I called the elders of the house out and they took away a bunch. Take it, take it quickly!"
Wu Weian sat at the foot of the bed, making room for Ji Mingyan, looking as if he had nothing to do with it.
But when he saw that Ji Mingyan was about to poke the candied haws into Ji Yunxi's hair, his eyelids twitched slightly, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed Ji Mingyan's arm, stopping him from moving forward: "Give it to me."
Ji Mingyan blinked his eyes: "Huh?"
Wu Weian: "Give it to me, I'll give it to her later. She's—" He lowered his eyes and said softly, "She doesn't seem to be in a good mood."
Ji Mingyan said he understood, gave the candied haws to Wu Weian, patted his brother-in-law on the shoulder, and then happily left the room again.
Wu Wei'an bit his candied haws, looked at Ji Yunxi's, and asked softly, "You really don't want to eat it?"
Ji Yunxi didn't reply to him at all.
He sighed softly: "Then I eat it?"
Ji Yunxi still didn't reply.
Wu Wei'an: "I really didn't mean to do that. Who told you to steal my money?"
Ji Yunxi opened her eyes and asked in a dangerous tone, "What did you say?"
Wu Wei'an: "Nothing."
He leaned lazily against the bed, one foot under the bed and one knee bent between the sheets.
He bit the candied haws lightly, a chuckle flashing in his eyes: "I thought you didn't care."
After all, I can take a bath in front of him.
Ji Yunxi was silent for a moment, then closed her eyes: "I really don't care."
Wu Weian laughed: "Your temper..."
Invisible sensed the warning coming from Ji Yunxi, so he stopped talking.
That night, Wu Weian contentedly finished two strings of candied haws by the bed. When he came back after washing up, Ji Yunxi was already asleep.
He gathered her messy black hair together and lay down beside her.
The woman's faint fragrance lingered on the bed, and the smooth touch lingered on her fingertips.
He closed his eyes and began to practice his internal energy until his mind became calm and peaceful, then he fell into a deep sleep.
But at the Xie family, neither the Xie couple could sleep.
The Xie family made their fortune by reselling goods.
The ancestors of the Xie family saw the difference between the Western Regions and Dayu, and specially united the martial arts sects to travel between Dayu and the Western Regions, transporting bottles, blankets, and spices with strong regional characteristics of the Western Regions to Dayu, and then transporting Dayu's finest tea and silk to the Western Regions.
The Xie family was the first to do this, so they laid a very good foundation. People in both the Western Regions and Dayu recognized the Xie family.
The Xie family also has many martial arts masters, most of whom are disciples of the Beishan Sword School.
Twelve disciples of the Beishan Sword Sect stood in the yard.
The Xie family patriarch stood before everyone, angrily saying, "My son will be executed tomorrow at noon..." He paused, a fierce look flashing in his eyes, "I'll have to trouble you all then. Just find Wu Weian!" When he mentioned Wu Weian's name, the Xie family patriarch gnashed his teeth, almost wanting to bite him to pieces. "When we get to the execution ground, stab him with a sword. There will be chaos, and he won't be able to preside over the subsequent executions. My son will be able to escape for the time being. The rest of you must take advantage of the chaos to kidnap my son."
The Xie family patriarch continued, "I've checked. Wu Weian and Ji Yunxi didn't bring many people to Liangzhou this time. Ji Yunxi, needless to say, only brought a few maids and was completely unarmed. Wu Weian, on the other hand, brought an elderly cook, an elderly steward, and a cleaning boy who seemed to have some mental issues. They are no match for you. And you've dealt with those constables and guards from the yamen before, and you know they're only mediocre. This will definitely work, and after it's done, I will definitely treat you well, and I won't treat the Beishan Sword Sect badly either. As for the elder, I'll ask my wife to speak to him and ask him to improve your swordsmanship."
After hearing the last words of the Xie family head, the eyes of the twelve disciples of Beishan Sword Sect all lit up.
Although they are not as rich as the Xie family, they are not short of money. What they really lack is the guidance of the inner sect elders.
This is something that money can’t buy.
Madam Xie added, "And Ji Yunxi, if she goes to the execution ground tomorrow, you must shave her face for me!!"
Mrs. Xie gritted her teeth.
These two people came from Shangjing City, and the master said they cannot be killed.
Since that's the case, it's always possible to scratch Ji Yunxi's face.
She wanted to see how this person would live the rest of his life after his face was scratched!

The next day was a sunny day.
The warm sunshine in March exudes the laziness of spring, and the branches in the yard sway gently in the spring breeze.
