The prince, who had his face covered with water, pulled Jiang Xiaoyu down in disgust and kicked him back into the lake.
The next moment, she was bumped into by Lin Nanyan: "Hehe, the prince is back, um, um, it smells a bit sweaty, it smells good..."
Jiang Fan was speechless and pulled her out, then threw himself on the recliner. He put his hands on his neck and groaned comfortably.
"It's better to go home..."
"Of course it's more comfortable at home than outside. At least you can enjoy eating and drinking more." Lin Nanyan pushed the fruits to him.
"It's winter, the fruits are quite fresh..." Jiang Fan pinched a piece of watermelon and said.
"What's the surprise for you? It's in the greenhouse. Mr. Tian came to the study the day before yesterday to check the information and brought it over."
"Oh? It seems that the output is good, otherwise Mr. Tian wouldn't be so generous."
"Probably, otherwise Lishan wouldn't have organized a harvest festival. I heard it was fun, but it's a pity..." She pouted: "I don't dare to go out for fear of exposing my secret, you have to make it up to me."
Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment: "Celebrating the Fengfeng Festival?"
"It is set on the tenth day of October every year. It is decided by Mr. Tian and the twenty-four festival envoys after discussion."
Jiang Fan nodded: "It's a good thing. Lishan people can't go out, so they need some interesting activities."
"I don't care, you have to make it up to me!"
"Okay, I'll take you to visit Lishan Night Market later."
Lin Nanyan's eyes suddenly shone. She had longed for the Lishan Night Market for a long time. Unfortunately, even mortals could not go to Lishan without the prince's permission.
Just as she was jumping for joy, Jiang Fan was a little surprised: "Why is the house so deserted today?"
Lin Nanyan looked at him: "Are you confused? The New Year is coming soon, and they have all gone out to prepare New Year's goods."
Jiang Fan was stunned and then remembered that another year had passed before he knew it. He was just busy working outside and didn't think about this matter.
"Yes...it's been another year. Thirteen years in the world calendar are coming..."
"The World Calendar? What the World Calendar?" Lin Nanyan was confused.
Jiang Fan smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, it's my own way of calculating time. How is your family doing during this time?"
"Well... there's a lot going on."
Lin Nanyan chirped and started chatting with Jiang Fan.
Generally speaking, there are a few things going on at home.
The first one, under the auspices of Gu Beiyan, Sister Jie Yuhua's wet nurse and Long Yi got engaged, and the wedding was planned for the sixth day of the new year. When she mentioned Jiang Fan, she was stunned. In her happiness, she repeatedly lamented that she paid too little attention to her family's movements. Long Yi was forty-five years old, and the two were almost the same age, which was just right.
The second thing is that Gu Beiyan made a breakthrough due to the recovery of his internal injuries, and now he has entered the peak realm of the Great Master.
This is another great thing. It has not been easy for Yanzi these years. He followed the Dragon Eagle Guards on the expedition and suffered from hidden diseases. Now, under the skillful hands of the old guy, he was finally cured. His body recovered, his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds, and he jumped into the great martial arts. Respect the peak.
The third thing surprised Jiang Fan even more. Zhang Zaifu and Hua Niang had already decided to get married on the third day of the Lunar New Year.
oops? Jiang Fan was very excited. Has the teacher figured it out? It seems that after staying in the avant-garde Lishan for a long time, the old man's mind has probably changed. The flower girl's long-cherished wish has finally come true, which is a great joy.
The fourth incident was that Meng Yi changed his temper when he returned from the expedition. He locked himself in the study all day long and studied military books. She even went to Yuwen Chengxin repeatedly to ask for advice on writing, and the relationship between the two became closer. Meng Yi even took her to meet her parents...
Jiang Fan couldn't help but feel very amused. This guy had suffered a lot in Baiqu, but he finally made some progress. The most surprising thing was that the two of them actually went to meet their parents.
According to Lin Nanyan, General Meng Wu was so satisfied with Yuwen Chengxin that he gave away the family heirloom on the spot. It is now worn on Yuwen Chengxin's wrist.
Mrs. Meng urged the marriage more frequently, coming twelve times in ten days, which made Yu Wen Chengxin hide in the warehouse and dare not come out.
Jiang Fan was also really happy for the two young men. They were both talented and beautiful, and they were in free love. At the same time, because Yu Wencheng was his disciple at heart, he was definitely worthy of the Meng family.
No wonder Meng Wu was so satisfied that after just a few drinks he made it known to everyone. He told everyone that his son was going to marry a disciple of King Xiaoyao, acting like a big talker.
The fifth thing is that Old Xingjun accepted a registered apprentice, the one who was hired by Ying Pei to break into the study at night. Jiang Fan didn't bother to find time to take a look.
What surprised him was that Lao Xingjun didn't say anything about this on Fuso Island.
Lin Nanyan told him that this disciple, named Shi Shen, was very accomplished in astrology and even pointed out many fallacies of the old Xingjun.
However, because Jiang Fan has not returned, Shi Shen is still squatting in the dungeon, but this person doesn't care. He writes and draws in the dungeon all day long. The walls are covered with his paintings. It seems that as long as there are books and ink, this guy can do anything. It doesn't matter if you stay there for the rest of your life.
Moreover, I heard that the old Xingjun, this new disciple, and Shangguan Wan'er were going to compile an astronomical work.
This is a major event other than the family's shortcomings. Jiang Fan couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
In fact, in order to avoid being too ahead of the times and not wanting to diminish the spirit of exploration of others, Jiang Fan only gave Mr. Xing some simple astronomical information. Now that Old Xingjun wants to write a book, it is definitely a great thing. In Jiang Fan's opinion, it may be a milestone in ancient astronomy.
The things Lin Nanyan talked about were all within ordinary people's homes, and did not involve much of Lishan or the outside world. But the sixth thing is somewhat related.
Under the leadership of Ba Qing, Prince Du Lun became an important figure in transactions with King Zuoxian. After the last transaction, King Zuo Xian also sent a letter, proposing to negotiate with Jiang Fan and let Prince Du Lun return to the grassland. However, Du Lun hesitated for three days and finally replied, saying that he did not want to go back yet.
Jiang Fan found it very interesting. Indeed, this guy from Du Lun was probably born in the wrong place. Although he was tall and powerful, he looked like a natural man from the grasslands, but he was actually a literary youth at heart.
I heard that I am now more and more obsessed with poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and music, and I can even write some simple poems. If it weren't for that figure and face, this man with his fluttering blue shirt and folding fan in his hand would really look like a Chinese scholar.
Jiang Fan also paid special attention to the matter between him and Tian Luoyu. Lin Nanyan told him that Du Lun had restrained himself a lot during this period, but he still couldn't hide his eyes. He often glanced at Silly Baitian - the nickname Silly Baitian was given to him by Lin Nanyan. Tian Luoyu's.
Nowadays, except for the somewhat eccentric Miss Tian herself, Du Lun's thoughts are known to almost everyone in the yard, but they all tacitly hide it from Lao Tian. After all, Du Lun is helpful and capable. To be honest, everyone likes him, but they don't want to be defeated by Lao Tian's formation.
Jiang Fan didn't want to get involved in this matter. In his conscience, although he advocated freedom of marriage and love, Du Lun was from northern Xinjiang after all, and he was unwilling to do so. But it was hard to talk about this kind of thing, so he just didn't ask.
