Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 174 Ancient Times (28)

Since Laba Festival, time has passed quickly.

Because it had not been a year since Ji Xiao's father passed away, she celebrated the New Year very simply. In previous years, her family would set off fireworks, keep vigil, and give out lucky money, so after eating the New Year's Eve dinner, Ji Xiao and Li Xiangyi went to the warm room, because Ji Xiao's house was built halfway up the mountain and the warm room was at the highest point, so the view was extremely good.

When the two arrived, snacks and tea had already been placed in the warm room, and even the fireplace was lit. The fireplace was made according to the drawings given by Ji Xiao. Even the warm room was built according to the drawings given by Ji Xiao. The wall where the fireplace was placed was made of pure stone, so there was no need to worry about safety issues.

The two sat down in front of the stove, neither of them spoke, but each of them read a book until the fireworks started outside. Ji Xiao put down the book and watched the fireworks. After a while, Ji Xiao spoke, "In previous years, I would stay up all night with my father, then set off fireworks together, give out lucky money, and finally go to bed. If it weren't for you this year, I would have eaten the New Year's Eve dinner and stayed up all night alone."

After hearing what Ji Xiao said, Li Xiangyi looked at her and said, "I can accompany you for the rest of my life, eat New Year's Eve dinner with you, keep watch with you, and set off fireworks with you." Then he added silently in his heart: Maybe our children will also be with you.

Then Ji Xiao took out a red envelope and handed it to Li Xiangyi, "Okay! Here, I'll give you some New Year's money. I hope that in the new year, you will smile like a summer flower, be as happy as the summer sun, and have everything go well."

Li Xiangyi took the New Year's money from Ji Xiao, and couldn't stop smiling. He said with a smile, "Wait for me for a while, I have something for you too."

"Ok."

Having said that, Li Xiangyi stood up and used the Posa Step to go back to his room to get the New Year gifts he had prepared in advance and his sword. Then he used the Posa Step again to return to the warm room, sat down in his previous seat, and handed Ji Xiao a wooden box.

"This is my New Year's gift, open it and see if you like it."

"Okay."

Ji Xiao opened the wooden box and found a silver hairpin. She found it was quite light in her hand, and the head of the hairpin was in the shape of a plum blossom.

"I like it very much, thank you Xiangyi. But didn't you just give me a jade hairpin?"

"As long as you like it, you are still in mourning, so it's not good to wear something with too bright colors. So I went to a silver shop and ordered a silver one. And that one was brought back for you when I went out, and this one is a New Year's gift. The two are different."

Although he didn't say it out loud, Li Xiangyi still added in his heart: I will bring you gifts no matter what festival it is in the future (except Qingming Festival and Zhongyuan Festival).

"Okay! But thank you for the gift anyway."

Seeing that the woman he liked liked the gift he gave, Li Xiangyi was also very happy, so Li Xiangyi picked up the Shao Shi sword and said, "Then I will dance with the sword for you to see."

"Okay!"

Li Xiangyi flew out, and Ji Xiao also came to the window, only to see red plum blossoms in the bright courtyard, and in front of these red plum blossoms stood a young man in red, with red silk tied to the sword in the young man's hand. At this time, heavy snow began to fall from the sky, and the young man looked up and saw the girl he loved standing in front of the window looking at him.

"Xiaoxiao, watch carefully."

"it is good."

Afterwards, Li Xiangyi danced with the sword in the snowy night, and the flying snow danced with him. The young man was immersed in the sword dance, his face filled with joy. As his movements became faster and faster, it seemed as if he turned into silk threads, interweaving the snowflakes and sword light together. Each of these movements was like a beautiful painting, so beautiful that it was intoxicating.

Ji Xiao looked at Li Xiangyi and felt that he was like an elf in the snow at this moment. People could not bear to disturb him for fear of disturbing him by making a sound.

Soon Li Xiangyi put away his sword, looked at Ji Xiao and asked, "Do you like it, Xiaoxiao?"

"Mmm, it's beautiful. Come in, it's cold outside."

"coming."

Ji Xiao led him to sit in front of the fireplace, picked up the ginger and jujube tea on the table, poured him a cup and handed it to him, "Drink it." Fearing that he would not drink it, she added, "It's sweet."

"Oh."

This was made by Dongchun according to the recipe given by Ji Xiao. He also built a workshop to process it and put it for sale in the shop. It is very popular. It is small and very convenient to carry, and it doesn't take up much space.
