Because he didn't sleep until almost the early hours of the morning the day before, Li Xin was forced to stop his morning practice for several years the next day, but when he got up at noon, he still made up for an hour's boxing pile.

After waking up, Li Xin saw Zhong Xiaoxiao, who he had been thinking about for more than a year.

I haven't seen her for more than a year, the little girl has grown a lot taller than Li Xin's waist, and the living environment has improved in recent years, and she is no longer as thin and thin as before, although she is not very fat, but she is already like a normal little girl.

The only pity is that the little girl's skin is not very white, and it looks like it has that dark feeling.

When she first saw Li Xin, she walked up to Li Xin a little slowly, then reached out and pulled Li Xin's clothes, and asked cautiously.

"Brother?"

Li Xin laughed heartily, bent down and hugged her in his arms, and said with a smile: "The girl doesn't recognize me?" ”

"I recognize it."

Zhong Xiaoxiao lowered his head, stretched out his hand to hug Li Xin's neck, and then repeated.

"Recognized ......"

Li Xin touched this girl's head and smiled: "I haven't seen her for more than a year, but I've grown a lot taller, do you read and write at home?" ”

"Yes."

Xiaoxiao said very seriously: "Mengxue wants to memorize, Xiaoxiao can already memorize it." ”

Li Xin nodded with satisfaction, bent down and put her down.

The little girl didn't go away, still standing beside Li Xin, raised her head and asked, "Brother, will you still go?" ”

Li Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "It shouldn't be in the last few years." ”

As he spoke, he squatted down and said to Xiaodao: "This time, my brother brought you a playmate, who is about the same age as you, and he will live in our house in the future and can study with you." ”

"But this little guy is very powerful, in terms of reading, he should be able to be your teacher."

As he spoke, Li Xin beckoned to the outside of the house, and Xiao Zhaofang, who had been waiting outside for a long time, walked in generously.

He was born in a family, and he was not afraid to see strangers, so he walked up to Li Xin, bent down and called the teacher, and then ran to the eldest princess, bowed his head and called the teacher.

Then the little kid ran in front of Zhong Xiaoxiao again, bowed his head and clenched his fists: "Senior aunt." ”

Zhong Xiaoxiao was a little at a loss.

Li Xin played Zhao Fang's brain, and scolded with a smile: "Don't shout, be disciplined." ”

Zhao Fang immediately stood up obediently.

The eldest princess walked up to Li Xin and looked at the little doll in surprise.

"Chang'an, have you accepted disciples?"

Li Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "This kid is shouting nonsense, don't pay attention to him, but he can be said to be because I became an orphan, and his family also entrusted him to me, the little guy is very spiritual, so I brought him back." ”

"In the future, he will live in our house, and he can be a companion for Xiaoxiao, anyway, our family will not lack this pair of chopsticks."

The eldest princess nodded with a smile and said, "What's his name?" ”

Before Li Xin could answer, the little guy saluted the eldest princess and said, "Back to the master, the disciple's name is Zhao Fang." ”

The eldest princess was also a girl who had just turned twenty years old, and she was a little embarrassed when she heard this, and said, "You can stay here in the future, don't shout." ”

"Don't worry, you are not a disciple of Chang'an, and our family will not treat you poorly, I will find a courtyard for you to live in when I go back, and then arrange a maid for you to take care of you."

Li Xin waved his hand and said indifferently: "Don't arrange any subordinates for him, this kid can live in our house, but he must take care of himself, and no one will take care of him." ”

"You have to wash your own clothes, too."

The eldest princess frowned and said, "Chang'an, he's still too young." ”

"This guy has never suffered since he was a child, and if he doesn't suffer hardship, he won't be able to get ahead when he grows up in the future."

Xiao Zhao smiled sweetly at the eldest princess.

"Don't worry, the disciple can take care of himself, just give me a place to live."

Zhong Xiaoxiao hesitated, ran to Zhao Fang's side, and whispered in a very small voice: "If you don't know how to wash clothes, I can wash them for you..."

……

Because he didn't have to go to the palace today, Li Xin had a full lunch at home, and after eating, he exercised, said hello to the eldest princess, and prepared to go out.

The eldest princess frowned and said, "Why did you just get home and go out?" ”

"Let's take a look at Master Ye."

Li Xin said with a smile: "I came back too late yesterday and couldn't go to see his old man's house, if I don't go today, the old man should poke our backbone in the back, and Senior Brother Ye is also in the southwest, so there are a lot of things to talk to Master Ye." ”

Ye Sheng is Li Xin's teacher, this relationship is actually no different from father and son in this era, not only to visit the door to give gifts during the New Year's holidays, but also to go out or come back from other places, they should come to greet him.

Moreover, the little prince Ye Mao also came back with him yesterday, so Li Xin had to go to Ye's house for a trip.

The eldest princess nodded and said, "Then will you come back for dinner at night?" ”

"Not necessarily, you don't have to wait for me when it's time to eat."

The Marquis of Jing'an changed into ordinary clothes, and walked out of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion in a chic manner.

He did not take a carriage, but chose to walk on foot.

When he was on the side of the road, he bought two jars of toast and carried them in his hand.

It is worth mentioning that after the stall of Zhurong wine was taken over by Taikang Tianzi, the business has become bigger and bigger in the past two years, and even places like Yongle Fang have places to sell Zhurong wine.

When he walked to the door of Chen Guogong's mansion, it was already more than halfway through, and the door of Chen Guogong's mansion recognized Li Xin, and after seeing him, he bowed his head and called Hou Ye, and then he didn't need to report it, so he invited Li Xin in.

"Our old lady, I've been waiting for you all day today."

The old man of the porter said with a smile: "I thought you came in the morning, and you should eat at our house at noon, and when you ate at noon, the old lady specially asked you to wait for a while." ”

Li Xin bowed his head a little embarrassed and said, "I was too tired to travel yesterday, and I got up late today, so I couldn't come early in the morning to say hello to the teacher." ”

"Out of the way, out of the way."

"The old man will take the Hou Ye to see the old lady."

The old porter led the way in front with a smile, and Li Xin followed behind in a proper manner.

For example, this old man who guards the door, in his early years, was a comrade-in-arms who followed Ye Sheng to fight on the battlefield of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Pao Ze brothers, when they were old and had nowhere to go, they simply watched the door in the Ye family.

A few years ago, the old porter could even drink with Old Man Ye.

Li Xin of Chen Guogong's Mansion has been here I don't know how many times, and the path in the mansion has already been familiar to him, but he still followed the old gatekeeper in a regular manner, and slowly walked to the door of Old Man Ye's courtyard.

After the old concierge brought it, he glanced down at the Zhurong wine in Li Xin's hand, and said with a smile: "Master Hou, the old lady is old, you look at it, don't let him drink too much." ”

Li Xin smiled and nodded: "Got it." ”

Then, he knocked on the door of Ye Sheng's willingness.

Not long after, a lean old man wearing only a sweat suit opened the courtyard door for Li Xin.

The Marquis of Jing'an put the wine on the ground and gave the old man a big gift with a smile.

"Master Ye, the disciple has come to see you."

The old man glanced at the two jars of wine at Li Xin's feet, and then snorted.

"You kid, this time it's a big show."
