Blood Princess and the Knight

Reflecting on his pale face through the glass, Ji Bai found that there was no turbulence in his heart, and no emotions were superfluous due to uncontrolled changes in his body. Perhaps he was used to it a long time ago. He is aimless now. Somewhat at a loss.

As he turned the corner, he bumped his shoulder and bumped into an elderly, skinny middle-aged man.

"I'm sorry, it's my negligence. Are you okay." Ji Bai subconsciously apologized and reached out to help the thin man who was almost tripped to the ground. Now, it won't be because... when he saw Ji Bai's face, the middle-aged man was startled suddenly, his eyes staring like eggs, his mouth was out of approval.

".you……

"Do you know me?" Ji Bai was a little surprised. He also looked at the facial features of the person. Gradually, a long-lost sense of familiarity rose to the face in the deep memory of his heart, and it was about to coincide with the old man's.

"You, you are the young master!??" The old man said in disbelief. "You, you, are you still alive? The outside rumors are not about faces.

"Are you, Uncle Mu??" Familiar voice and voice, even though the years are not forgiving, Ji Bai soon recognized that this familiar Uncle Mu was an inferior servant once employed by the Yanlance family. Servant, Ping 8 is responsible for cleaning the villa, taking care of the garden and other chores.

He is gentle by nature: he likes children very much, and the young Ji Bai and Ji Yue take good care of him. As a result, Ji Bai has a deep impression of him.

The reason why he didn't recognize it at a glance is that Uncle Mu has changed a lot in recent years.

Chapter 5 ~ Can I Put It Down?

"Have a drink of tea, young master." Sitting in the inner room for a while, two cups of fragrant tea with white steam came on the table.

The soft lighting fills the room that appears to be outdated, the white paste with crack marks on the four walls, and the use of discolored furniture, revealing that this room has been used for a long time.

The style is very common, the room is not too big, three bedrooms and one living room, only one person is more than enough.

Ji Bai held the teacup and looked roughly at the structure of the house.

"It's been a long time, young master, it's been six years since the last goodbye." Uncle Mu looked for a stool and sat down, with a complex expression.

"Six years, zero seven months and thirteen days." Ji Bai added in detail.

"Young Master, you remember it so clearly, it may be unforgettable to you." Uncle Mu sighed, he wanted to talk again, as if he felt that he shouldn't make more comments as a servant.

"Uncle Mu, I am no longer a young master, just call me Ji Bai." Ji Bai paused. "After so many years, are you still doing things under the hands of the Ji family?

"I retired half a year ago. I am getting older, and my old man is not able to work well. It doesn't make sense to stay there. I wonder if I make enough money to find a place far away from the big city to spend my old age." Mu Bo Yi After taking a sip of tea, the hot tea made him recover some blood.

"If you can't hide the hidden diseases, people will get these big and small diseases when they are old, and they are the roots of the disease that they don't pay attention to when they are young."

"Pay more attention to diet. Sleep therapy is more important than diet therapy. Health preservation is not only a simple matter of routines of life, but also many details." Ji Bai warned.

"Haha, thank you for your concern, the young master. Thanks to the hard work in my youth, my body is still healthy, and it will be fine for more than ten years. Uncle Mu was taken aback, and then he smiled warmly.

"I've changed?" Ji Bai pointed to himself silently, and shook his head unclearly.

"Yes, you didn’t know how to express your emotions in the past. Many things are held in your heart, making others misunderstand what you want to express. It’s even harder to tell if you care about people. Now you are much more considerate than before. , Hahahaha." Uncle Mu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"How have you been in Ji's house these past few years? No one is embarrassing you." Ji Bai didn't seem to intend to continue on this topic.

"No, the second lady takes good care of me, and the servants get along well. No one has trouble with me, the old man, but "Uncle Shepherd hesitated to say something."

"By the way, how have you been, Young Master? According to official certification, you have been killed on the battlefield. Uncle Mu's ability to change the subject is a bit stiff, and Ji Bai didn't plan to break it, so he went along with the conversation.

"Fortunately, I survived, but I didn't plan to go back.

"Whether it's this way, or in leisure time, it may not be a good thing to live under the eyes of the public." Uncle Mu murmured as if to himself.

"Master, forgive me for asking me presumptuously.

"I'm no longer a young master. Uncle Mu has anything to ask, it doesn't matter.

"Those things back then, you didn't do it subjectively, right?

Regarding Uncle Mu's question, Ji Bai rarely remained silent.

"Oh, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, I believe you must have your own unspeakable concealment." Seeing Ji Bai's silence, Uncle Mu hurriedly waved his hand.

"What does Uncle Mu think in his heart?" Ji Bai asked rhetorically.

"I. I am willing to believe that this is not what you did, the young master, you are not that kind of person." Uncle Mu lightly sighed.

The meaning in the words is clear, and I am willing to believe it, but not completely believe it.

Ji Bai nodded.

A gentle and kind-hearted person like his wife treats inferior servants as relatives. How could such a kind woman frame her as her own, and she doesn't believe it.

When I was kicked out of the house, it was estimated that many people were stealing pleasure, secretly crying out to be happy.

As an adopted child, the kind and dear foster mother who hurt her will be scolded by someone poking her spine. It's also a shame that this matter hasn't been passed on. Maybe they missed the old feelings.

"The past is like the wind, but now these are all gone. No matter what the original truth is, you are the hero of mankind, young master. You have devoted your life to mankind almost all of your life. Just treat it as a mistake made when you were young and ignorant. You shouldn’t have been discredited and denied your whole life because of a fault in your youth.” Uncle Mu smiled kindly and raised his teacup T.

"As an outsider, maybe I am not qualified to say anything. I just want to talk about my own opinions. If what happened at the beginning was really a momentary confusion for the young master, I should not run away. I should stand up and admit my mistakes and apologize to them. He is a real man doctor, and if the original matter really has a hidden master, you will never be forgiven if you hold back like this, whether it is the second lady or yourself." Mu Bo said this with earnest heart. Then, quietly glanced at Ji Bai who was still silent.

"Yeah." Ji Bai replied dullly, not knowing whether he heard it or not.

"How has she been in these few years?"

"Second Miss?" Uncle Mu sighed deeply as if thinking of something. "Young Master wants to hear the truth, Lao Mu, I can tell you, it's very bad.

"Since I beat you away, the second young lady seems to have changed herself. It doesn't mean that her behavior has changed. In short, her temperament is completely different from before. Grandpa's education of the young lady has become more stringent. The expression is getting colder and colder. Speaking of it, I don't seem to have seen the young lady smile in these years." Uncle Mu said this, his expression a little distressed.

The changes that have taken place between these two children, Uncle Shepherd, who has seen them grow up, has the most experience.

"Isn't she used to coming over?" Ji Bai was silent for a long time before he jumped out.

"No. The expression that Miss Miss puts on her face all day long gradually becomes terrible, like a puppet who will not be angry, will not be angry, will not hurt, the puppet is at the mercy of others, and the unsentimental voice makes people wonder whether she is Still." Uncle Mu seemed to feel deeply, stroking his chest with his hands. "I think Miss, she must still be stubborn about what happened at the beginning, and the person who needs to tie the bell to untie the bell, eldest master."

"What can I help." Ji Bai shook his head. "After all, I am not a member of their family. I am just an irrelevant outsider like you. What right do I have to interfere in their family affairs?

Brother, she will be engaged in the near future, someone will continue to take care of her instead of me.

"Master, don't you think so?" Uncle Mu shook his head. "Do you really think such a lady is happy?

Do you understand what I said? ’

With that, Uncle Mu took out an invitation from the drawer and threw it on the desktop.

"Although this banquet is only to confirm the relationship between unmarried couples, many high-level temple officials will come to appreciate and witness. I have worked in Ji's house for almost ten years, and I am barely qualified. This is an invitation that my grandpa distributed to me before I quit my job. Letters are also common for banquets".

Speaking of this, if Ji Bai still doesn't understand what Uncle Mu means, then he would be a foolish goose.

He looked at the invitation letter lying quietly on the table and remained silent.

"If you need it, take it." Uncle Mu placed the invitation letter in front of Ji Bai. I can't use it. "Ji Bai hesitated for a moment and then refused.

"The last thing she needs is my help, which will only cause her trouble.
