The great hero, from nine to five

Ji Lian'er almost picked up the bowl in front of her and put it on Ji Chou's head.

But after all, it is a contemporary representative, and Ji Lian'er has full self-control. She didn't make such an overly excited and easily misunderstood action. Instead, she picked up the bowl in front of her and took a bite of the rice. It seemed that there was nothing unusual about it.

Ji Wubian laughed.

Although Ji Chou looks more wild and seems to be a slovenly person, it does not mean that he has no brains.

The purpose of the three of them coming out was to "look". Whether it was before the martial arts, during the martial arts, or after the end, they would have their own means.

On the other side, Xun Wu did not answer this question immediately.

He frowned slightly.

Why did you suddenly ask such a question?

Although this sentence is very common, it seems that it is simply asking Xun Wu what he thinks of Ji Lian'er, but Xun Wu is not such a simple person.

He was silent for a while, looking down at the dishes on the table, but thinking about other things in his eyes.

Speaking of which, Boss Jin and Shopkeeper Mo seemed to have similar reactions...

"Could it be that the opponent of the Ji family has some special meaning?" Xun Wu held his chin with one hand, pondered for a while, and didn't say what he thought of Ji Lian'er, but directly expressed himself inference.

Xun Wu has seen many similar works before, and there are quite a few weird family rules of "seeing the true face under the light veil, either get married or kill each other".

So, when he heard Ji Chou's question, which was like being asked by an elder returning home during the Chinese New Year, he immediately thought of his previous experience and said this.

"Eh?"

"Oh?"

The other four were subconsciously surprised when they heard Xun Wu's rhetorical question.

The three brothers glanced at each other, slightly surprised.

How should I put it, Xun Wu didn't think about this before because Ji Lian'er deliberately kept it from Xun Wu. Out of trust in his partners and friends, Xun Wu didn't think about it carefully. Now Ji Chou asked , will naturally think about it.

"Xun Wu actually thought of it?" Ji Baobao immediately said, "I thought you would brag about Lian'er's performance, praise her again, and say she is a good girl or something.

I really want to see little Lianer's expression when you say she is a good girl. "

The unique evil taste of the Ji family was fully exposed.

Ji Chou leaned sideways, held the wine bowl in one hand, and poked her cheek in the other, and said, "Yes, I didn't expect Xun Wu to say it directly."

The three brothers certainly didn't show any signs of embarrassment, only Ji Lian'er blushed a little, and the speed of eating was obviously faster.

"The reminder is so obvious, I can't pretend not to see it, right?" Xun Wu shook his head helplessly.

"It's hard to say... My ancestors said many similar situations, saying that there will be people with that kind of [gentleness], and they will ignore this meaning because of being too gentle."

Could that be intentional?

Xun Wu shook his head, and then asked: "Could it be that all the old enemies of the Ji family have to fight with the Ji family..."

"Of course not." Ji Wubian quickly shook his head, "Since you have already guessed it, let me explain it to you."

Generally speaking, the "representative" of the Ji family is "elected".Generally, each generation will go through the selection within the clan, and the most talented person will be selected as the representative of the new generation, and they will walk, observe, and do some investigations on other races throughout the Central Plains.

People from other races in the north and people from other countries are the subjects of investigation by the Ji family.

It's just that in the last few generations, except for Ji Shuangshi who was selected, the others have been handed down along the way.After all, the Ji family does not distinguish between the family and the family. As long as the overall goal is in line with the goals of the Ji family, it is the same for anyone who wants to go out and do business.

In this process, in order to ensure that each generation's representative has enough self-motivation, the concept of "old enemy" came into being.

To be honest, in fact, there are not many cases of real marriage. It's just that the agent and the old enemy are usually in the same location or in the same area, so it is inevitable that there will be some cases of long-term love.

Between men and women, it is naturally more obvious.

Moreover, the two will definitely influence each other. If the opponent you are looking for is not a truly kind person, or dies young, it will be extremely painful for the agent-if you really like each other, then It's even more painful.

More than a hundred years ago, there was a generation acting on behalf of him. Because his old enemy fell into evil ways, he followed up without thinking, and almost caused the entire Ji family to perish completely.

Therefore, the Ji family had obvious considerations for acting as their old enemy. Although they would not stop Ji Lian'er from choosing anyone, they chose a man, so they had to study it anyway.

As for whether or not to get married in the final analysis, it is actually not important to the Ji family.

It's just that when the three of them were older brothers when Ji Lian'er came home for the New Year, they found that Ji Lian'er was indeed a bit inclined, so they came here to ask.

Of course, the three of them didn't say this sentence, they just explained the tradition of the Ji family.

"I see." Xun Wu nodded, generally understanding.

"Ha, then tell me, what do you think of Lian'er?" Ji Wubian smiled again, and then asked.

"Oh, it's so annoying!" Ji Lian'er finally couldn't hold it anymore, she slammed the bowl on the table with a bang, blushing, and yelled at her cousin, "I'm eating, why are you talking so much!"

"Hahaha..." The three brothers laughed loudly.

Xun Wuze was still touching his chin, thinking deeply.

"Hmm... what a difficult question."

After a while, Xun Wu sat upright, with a serious face, clasped his hands and put them on the table.

Several other people were completely dumbfounded by Xun Wu's serious look.

No, wasn't it fun just now?

"Those three, let me just say my opinion."

The three nodded dumbly.

"In all fairness, Xiaobai is smart and cute, and she gets along very well with me. I like her very much."

Ji Lian'er didn't know what to say, her hands were shaking.

The three brothers also opened their mouths wide.

Is it so direct?

This is more direct than us?

"But... most of this kind of liking is related to work. I don't know how much of it is love.

If I really want to maintain a pure friendship, I think I can do it.

Moreover, Xiaobai has only known me for less than a year, maybe she will meet someone more like her in the future, maybe.

More importantly, although Xiaobai has been going through various dangers with me, I really have to say that I have no savings, no house, no..."

"Wait, wait—don't say it, don't say it." Ji Baobao hurriedly stopped.

He didn't expect that Xun Wu was so... realistic?

After Xun Wu finished speaking, he felt his head buzzing.

Xun Wu said it very directly, because he didn't want to make big detours with "our own people", but after he finished speaking, Xun Wu was as stupid as he was, so he had to keep pouring wine for himself, bowl by bowl. .

Although Xun Wu has always been very calm in his daily actions, this time, Xun Wu has actually lost his mind. While drinking, he is still regretting, feeling that he has said too much and made mistakes.

No wonder some people play dumb.

Ji Baobao and the three looked at each other again.

Ji Wubian stopped laughing, and Ji Chou became more serious.

Although Xun Wu's answer was true, it did not meet their liking.

Let Xun Wu go on, they felt that Xun Wu would tell the situation of everyone he knew as evidence. After all, from what Ji Lian'er heard, Xun Wu should have many female friends.

As the leader of the three, Ji Baobao didn't like Xun Wu's style of answer, but he knew that Xun Wu's answer was the most responsible.

But...Although the Ji family has always had their own responsibilities, what the Ji family yearns for the most is freedom. Talking about it means responsibility, and he doesn't like it very much.

Ji Chou is different from him, he doesn't care about those messy things, he prefers to make decisions with a slap on the head, just like Ji Lian'er often has whims, and he doesn't like any plans.

Ji Wubian was relatively simple and only focused on happiness. Although Xun Wu's answer made him feel a little stressed, Xiao Lian'er seemed to be quite happy, so he didn't care too much.

On the whole, although it didn't suit my liking, the three of them didn't deliberately say anything.

After all, even my own family members have various ideas.

"Hey! It's all my fault for making the atmosphere so tense! I'll punish myself and pay everyone!" Suddenly, Ji Chou raised a jar of wine and poured it into the mouth of the jar, and wiped it with his sleeve when he was done. At the corner of his mouth, he grabbed the wine jar with one hand and turned it upside down. There were not a few drops of wine left.

"Achou is a good drinker!" Ji Baobao immediately shouted, "Come on, Xun Wu, don't talk about those unhappy things, let's have a few drinks, don't drink too much, after all, you have to keep fit."

"Yes, yes, we finally got together—" Ji Wubian hurriedly picked up a bowl of wine, and took a sip by himself.

The three of them made jokes and talked nonsense. While asking Xun Wu if there was anything bothering him recently, they began to talk about Ji Lian'er's childhood by being "drunk", which made Ji Lian'er, who was very shy, angry. Chung, bang bang bang bang on the table, while shaking each other's family background, talking about each other's faults.

Baby Ji has been a crybaby since he was a child, Ji Wubian can't learn to use addition and subtraction proficiently, and Ji Chou's flower life can't be more than three days...

To say that the three brothers are still amazing, they not only understand Ji Lianer, but also know how to change the atmosphere, quickly eliminated the previous embarrassing atmosphere, and occasionally blew up a dark history to make Ji Lianer laugh.

Even, after hearing that Xun Wu did have a lot of things to solve recently, Ji Wubian patted his chest quickly and said that this matter is not troublesome. Since Xun Wu is short of manpower, it is not a problem for me to help you!

Xun Wu didn't expect that before he could think of a way to keep them to help, they would take the initiative to do work for him.

After drinking and eating, the host and guest had a good time. Although a lot of wine was consumed, it was basically Ji Chou who drank, and Xun Wu was not forced to drink.

Although Xun Wu felt that the wine was tasteless, he was happy that he was not persuaded to drink.

Afterwards, the three bid farewell to Xun Wu and Ji Lian'er, and watched them leave.

Then, Jichou went back to drink again.

"Achou, stop drinking." Ji Baobao wanted to snatch the wine jar from Ji Chou's hand, but found that Ji Chou was holding the wine jar and started crying.

He and Ji Wubian sighed helplessly.

"I just said that the brothers in the inn shouldn't bring any daughter red." Ji Wubian shook his head, "I must have thought of her again."

"You can't come back to life after death, Achou..."

Ji Chou shed another burst of tears silently, and then wiped her eyes.

"I don't like Xun Wu very much."

"Really, I think he's pretty good. He's a good person and capable." Ji Wubian said.

Ji Baobao fell silent.

After a while, Ji Baobao followed up and said: "Anyway, no matter whether Lian'er likes him or not, and whether he will get together with Lian'er, it's hard to say.

The most important thing is that he is the "old enemy" of our Ji family, so we must put all our energy into observing him. "

"It's about..." Ji Wubian nodded slowly.

Afterwards, Ji Wubian shuddered and sensed something was wrong.

What's going on, why did you two stand aside?

Didn't we agree, just come to tease me a little bit?

Is this how you act as a brother?You guys really want to put that Xun Wu to the test?

Which line of this?

He admired Xun Wu very much.

all in all.

During the banquet, Xun Wu succeeded in splitting the originally weak brotherly alliance into two by virtue of his own performance.

At the same time, Xun Wu and Ji Lian'er were about to go back to the Yamen.

The two of them were not walking fast, even a little slow. If they were the original two, they would have run back long ago, but now they are still walking side by side, walking slowly on the road.

In warm spring, the weather is neither too hot nor too cold, which is the most pleasant season in Shengjin. The breeze blows, bringing some fragrance of soil and flowers.

"Well—" Ji Lian'er couldn't bear it at first.

Xun Wu looked over as he walked.

After Ji Lian'er made a sound, she didn't know what to say. When Xun Wu looked over, she became irritable again, and then she scratched her hair hysterically: "Hey!"

Xun Wu nodded.

"An old enemy or something may not necessarily become a lover or a husband and wife! Don't listen to their nonsense!"

In fact, Ji Baobao and the others didn't say they would definitely.

Xun Wu nodded.

Ji Lian'er blushed again.

"And—and...and, I want to recast the glory of the family and regain the prestige of the ancestors back then. Unless I achieve the same achievements as the ancestors, I will never consider those things that are there or not!"

what...

Xun Wu raised his eyebrows and nodded his head slowly.

Ji Lian'er snorted again, thinking to herself.

Those three bastards.

Why are you so straightforward.

She didn't tell Xun Wu about this all the time because she didn't understand it herself, but when they said it like this, she couldn't figure it out even more.

"I'm so mad...Those three bastards." She couldn't help but curse.

"Hehe... Xiaobai." Xun Wu looked at Ji Lian'er, with a smile on his face, "Since you are so angry, let's think about how to be happy.

When I left, I found that although the three of them had the same purpose, their tendencies were completely different, and they all had their own ideas. "

Ji Lianer nodded.

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, who doesn't have the ability to observe?

"Since you're so angry, why not take revenge—for example, find a way to get them to join our team. From now on, you will be their senior, and you can command them in front of others."

Ji Lian'er's eyes lit up.

"It's really you!" She jumped up excitedly and patted Xun Wu on the back.

That Ji Lian'er who likes to die is back!

"Hey hey... a tool man... hey hey."
