The two were cousins. What they were good at specifically, they didn't say, and Jia Yin didn't ask.
There's still plenty of time in the future, let's take it slow and get to know each other.
The old lady was delighted and bent down to wipe her granddaughter's mouth, instructing, "Your stepfather has spared no effort for your sake. You should go see him and thank him."
"Okay, Grandma, I'll go get some food for my stepfather." Jiayin nodded and ran back to the east room with a smile. When she came out, she was carrying a small basket.
This time, the round-faced Shui Ling took the lead and helped catch the basket, carefully holding it in her hand, but her nose twitched repeatedly without a trace.
Suiyun secretly glared at her, causing Shuiling to quickly stick out her tongue.
Winter Plum stayed to help the old woman with her work, while Ye Shan led Jia Yin and the maidservant out.
The Lord Hou was sitting under the eaves, wiping the war knife that the Li family had sent him.
Even though the blade was already sharp, he still wiped it over and over again.
For warriors engaged in fierce battles, a sharp sword and a spirited steed are crucial trump cards that can save their lives in critical moments.
His steed, a BMW, was raised from childhood. It was intelligent and strong, fast-running, truly traveling a thousand miles a day and eight hundred at night.
But he never found a suitable weapon, so the Li family gave him this war sword.
For so long, this sword has chopped off the heads of barbarians, no less than a thousand, maybe even two or three hundred. The blade is spotless, without a single nick or burr; it's truly a divine weapon.
So, whenever he has free time, he will polish and care for it.
Just then, a little girl came over. He quickly put the knife away, afraid of scaring her.
"Father!" Jia Music ran forward happily, sat beside her foster father and boasted, "Shan Shu brought people back!"
The Lord Marquis held her in his lap, took a handkerchief to wipe the beads of sweat from her forehead, and said with a smile, "You're so happy I've found people for you."
"Of course," Jia Yin nodded, her voice crisp. "My brothers read in the morning and go to play rooster fighting and slingshot in the afternoon without taking me. Humph, I won't need them anymore, someone will play with me!"
The Marquis rubbed her little head, “As long as you’re happy. In the future, when your adoptive father isn’t home, you have to take them with you everywhere, do you understand Now that you’re a princess, you need to get used to it slowly!”
"Understood, godfather!" Jiayin quickly replied and had Shui Ling bring up a basket. Inside the basket were three fragrant melons.
Jia Yin took one, hesitated for a moment and said: “Uncle, let’s eat one each, and give the other two to Shui Ling and the others. Shui Ling was drooling just now when she walked over.”
Shuilin blushed and stepped forward, saying, "Master, I was born with a keen sense of smell. This fruit is simply too fragrant..."
Su Yun, fearing her master's anger, pulled Shui Ling down and knelt. "My lord, please forgive me. Shui Ling has always been impulsive and gluttonous since she was young, but she is a skilled cook and deeply loyal..."
The Lord waved his hand, signaling them to get up. “Get up, Miss. The County Princess rewards you, so feel free to take it. Stay here tonight and let Dongmei teach you the habits of the County Princess. In the future, serve the County Princess with all your heart, and neither the Marquis’s Mansion nor the Li family will mistreat you.”
Shui Ling and Shui Yun quickly kowtowed. Grandma He raised her head slightly and glanced at the Marquis more than once.
She was from the dark guard, although she had always been in the palace, she also knew this Marquis's temperament, he wasn't a talkative person.
Hearing the Marquis say so much just to instruct the two maidservants to serve the County Princess well, it's clear that the County Princess holds a special place in the Marquis' heart and must be treated with utmost care.
She thought this way, burying her head even lower.
Soon, Ye Shan took them down to settle in. Shui Ling carried a basket filled with two fragrant melons, her smile reaching her ears with happiness.
The lord took a dagger, peeled the watermelon in half, and the father and daughter sat under the eaves, munching on the fragrant melon and chatting.
"Father, I want Grandma to take me to Luo'an tomorrow!" Jia Yin said, hugging a watermelon and eating until her little face was smeared.
The Marquis then asked, "How did you come to think of going to Lu'an"
"Brother Jiarong will be having his birthday tomorrow, and Uncle San (third uncle) will also have his birthday in three days. When I had my birthday, both Uncle San and Brother Jiarong gave me presents. I should also give them gifts!"
Jiayin wiped her cheeks, and like a little kitten, she had one extra whisker.
The lord was almost dizzy from all these birthdays. The Li family had many members, and it seemed like someone's birthday came up every ten or fifteen days. It was impressive that the little girl remembered them all.
After they finished the watermelon, he took out a small silver ingot from his pouch. "My foster father has been busy these days and is going back to the Marquis's Mansion. You take this silver and buy a birthday present for your elder brother and Uncle Three on behalf of my foster father. When you come back, stay at the Marquis's Mansion for a few days."
Jia Yin took the silver, her eyes shining with laughter. "That's great! Grandma is too busy taking care of Master and my younger siblings. I'll go live with my stepfather, so Grandma won't have to steam egg custard for me or rock me to sleep."
She said that, then she stood up and ran home. "I'm going to tell grandma!"
The Lord held the leftover melon rind that the little girl had eaten, and couldn't help but laugh and cry, "This little girl, did she come here just to rob me of my silver"
The old woman was eating noodles, and seeing her grandchildren playing while eating, she chuckled and scolded them, "Eat quickly, or you'll get a stomachache."
Jia Yin ran in like a little rabbit, bouncing and skipping, and jumped into Grandma's arms. She told her about going to celebrate her older brother and uncle's birthdays.
Only then did the old woman remember, "Oh dear, I got so busy I forgot all about it. I really do have to go to Los Angeles."
Jiā'ān, Jiāxǐ and Māo'ěrgē immediately rushed forward, clamoring to go too.
Unfortunately, the old woman gave them a whack on the head with her cane, "Study hard at home, don't even think about slacking off."
Jia Yin pouted, “You guys play cockfighting without me! I’m going to the academy with grandma, and you’re not coming!”
Jia An, Jia Xi, and Mao Ge'er were dejected, their heads drooping as they replied, "We didn't leave you out on purpose! You're too small. One hit from a cockfighting match could send you flying!"
Jia Yin blinked her big eyes and agreed, saying, "Then I'll bring you some sticky rice cakes when I come back!"
“Really Haha, you’re still the best sister! Then we’ll just wait at home. Come back soon with grandma!”
Jia An and Jia Xi, as well as Mao Ge'er, were all delighted.
They especially love the glutinous rice cakes sold at the end of Luan Street. They are not only delicious but also fun to play with, as a single glutinous rice cake can be stretched to two feet long.
Often, the two brothers would each pull on one side, trying to see how long they could stretch it before grabbing and devouring it. It's a rather mean-spirited way to play…
Although Huiniang was at home confinement, Dongmei helped Tao Hongying, and Wu Sanniang and others often came over. Li Yong was always by his wife and children's side, so even when Lao Tai Li went out for a day, she didn't have to worry about anything.
So, the next morning, Li Laosi took a carriage and drove his mother-in-law and Jia Yin to Lu'an. He thought that they could have lunch there, talk about family matters, and hurry back in the evening.
When they passed through Xindu, they bought some things. By the time they reached Lu'an, it was already past noon.
Jia Yin opened the window to see what was happening, and she saw a horse running toward her quickly. Sitting on the horse's back was her Uncle San!
Perhaps because his horsemanship was poor, Third Uncle rode lopsidedly, as if he might fall off at any moment. She was frightened and quickly cried out, "Grandma, look, it's Third Uncle!"
