Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 191 Ancient Times (45)

Little Nian'an only got his name the day before his full moon. The next day was his full moon banquet. Originally, Li Xiangyi was not planning to hold it, after all, he hadn't even held a third-month bath, so his family just went through the motions.

Because the prefect had sent a letter asking for information, he had reluctantly asked people to prepare these things. However, the butler Song Bo had asked people to prepare these things as early as the day Ji Xiao gave birth.

Even the lady of her uncle's family who lived next door came to help. The reason why her aunt came to help was because she knew that Ji Xiao was pregnant and had already returned.

Ji Xiao's uncle rushed over with his family and bought the house next door to theirs at a high price. Although they were called neighbors, in fact the two houses were only about a hundred meters apart.

Qingyun Academy had been moved here from Qingyun Town by his uncle, who asked Ji Xuan'an for help. It took a year in total. It took more than half a year from the site selection to the completion of the academy, and it took another half a year for everyone, from students to teachers, to move here.

On the day of the full moon banquet, Ji Xiao soaked in the space for a while before changing her clothes and going out. However, she just went out for the sake of formality, letting people see little Nian'an, and then she took Nian'an back, leaving Li Xiangyi alone to socialize outside.

Among the many guests, some came with their families. After that day, some girls would try to meet Li Xiangyi by chance when they saw him going out alone. After this happened many times, Li Xiangyi became less fond of going out.

After all, Li Xiangyi established the Sigumen and he was very handsome, so some women with ideas would approach him and pretend to meet him by chance when they saw him. At first, Li Xiangyi would pay attention to him, but later he would stick to the girls like taffy.

Even though he had a cold face, people pretended not to see it. Therefore, as soon as he returned, Li Xiangyi hugged Ji Xiao and complained coquettishly.

"Xiaoxiao, when can we go out and play again? These people are so annoying! They can't read people's faces. I told them I have a wife at home, but they still stick to me like sticky candy. And there are also those parents who rush to let their daughters become concubines. It's really annoying."

"Okay, don't be angry! Nian'an is still young, and we can't go out now. I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult position!"

"Well, how about we go back to our tribe? Or how about going back to Qingyun Town?"

"It's okay, I'll let Zhiwei take care of it tomorrow."

"All right!"

In the days that followed, the two of them spent their time raising children. In the previous world, Ji Xiao had given birth to and raised children, but that was the modern world after all, and the way of raising children was different from that in ancient times.

Therefore, since the age of three, Li Xiangyi has been pulling this child to get up early and exercise to lay the foundation. Then after he has adapted for a period of time, Ji Xiao arranges for his enlightenment.

As for little Nian'an, he learns very quickly no matter what he does. However, neither of them is the type to push their child too hard. As long as he completes his daily tasks, they will leave him alone.

Therefore, in the remaining time, Li Nian'an either practiced with the small wooden sword carved for him by Li Xiangyi, or memorized soup recipes and the names of medicinal herbs in the room.

However, no matter how talented a person is, he will have shortcomings. For example, Li Xiangyi knows some herbs, but he cannot treat illnesses. Li Nian'an, who can learn anything quickly, is the same when studying medicine. No matter how many soup recipes he memorizes or how many herbs he remembers, he only knows basic common medicines such as hemostatics and wind-cold medicines.

However, Ji Xiao asked him to keep the poison in mind, and she also put a poison-repellent pill in the small pendant that Nian An usually wore. Both father and son did the same.

When Li Nian'an was twelve years old, Li Xiangyi told him.

"Nian'an, come here, I have something to tell you."

"Dad, what's the matter?"

"That's right, you're already this old! It's time for you to learn to live on your own, so your mother and I are going on a long trip in a couple of days."

"Ah~ Dad, but I'm only twelve years old, still a child!"

"Look at the kids your age, who is as tall as you?"

"That won't work either. Unless you take me with you, I will follow you everywhere every day."

"It all depends on your performance!"

"It's settled then. I'm going out to play with my senior brother."

This child is still young. Is his father so easy to threaten? He is Li Xiangyi, and he didn't agree to take him with him. So after Li Nian'an left, he went back to his room, changed his clothes, found Ji Xiao, hugged her and ran away.

After they were far away from Qinglian City, Li Xiangyi finally found a flat place to stop. After he stood firm, Ji Xiao asked, "Xiangyi, what happened? Didn't you say you would leave in two days?"

"That kid Li Nian'an wants to follow us."

"So you promised him?"

"I didn't agree, but he thought I did."

While the two were talking, Ji Xiao took out the food that he had prepared earlier from the space.

"Xiang Yi, come and eat something."

"Coming!"

"Xiao Xiao, where are we going this time?"

"How about we go southwest?"

Ji Xiao is from the southwest region in her own world, and from Yunnan Province. Although that place is not as mysterious as in ancient times, the weather and scenery are indeed very good.

"Sure! I'll go with you wherever you want to go."

"Then let's set off now!"

Ji Xiao put away the tables and chairs, and then Li Xiangyi took out the car from his storage ring, and Ji Xiao released two horses. After all, there were four horses at the beginning. Li Xiangyi gave the horse to Ji Xu'an, and Ji Xiao's horse was taken by Nian'an. The other two horses were given to her uncle by Ji Xiao.

So now she could only find two more horses to pull the cart. Fortunately, she had a lot of horses in her space, otherwise she would have to go to the next town to buy horses to pull the cart.

The two had not traveled far for more than ten years, so they were not in a hurry to travel. Instead, they let the horses go in one direction. When the weather was good, Ji Xiao would accompany Li Xiangyi at the shaft.

When the weather is bad, the two will stop to rest and wait until the weather is better before continuing their journey.

During this period, the two would go to the mountains to hunt for treasure from time to time.

Li Nian'an, who was at home, played at Si Gu Men until dinner time and then went back. Before he even entered the house, he heard his voice coming from a distance.

"Dad, Mom. Dad, Mom. Hey~ Why is there no one here?"

At this time, Uncle Song walked over and said, "Young Master, the uncle and the young lady have already gone out."

"Grandpa Song, do you know when they left? Why didn't anyone call me?"

"After you left, they left."

"Humph, Dad is a big liar. He clearly promised to take her with him, but now he has kidnapped Mom."

Li Nian'an muttered softly, then he fell into deep thought, carefully recalling the conversation between the two of them, and then he realized that his father was just perfunctory and he did not agree to take him with him.

Then he thought to himself: Humph! Stinky daddy.

"Grandpa Song, go get busy!"

"Young Master, are you really okay?"

"Grandpa Song, I'm fine, go ahead!"
