Xiao Lin paused. He first glanced at Bai Zhun and took the scriptures. With a forced smile, he said, âItâs okay. Brother Xiao Lin has other gifts here.â
Hearing this, the childâs little palm moved over again. Her big beautiful eyes lit up and she looked very cute. âWhat other gifts do you have?â
Bai Zhun looked at his empty hands and raised his eyes to meet Xiao Linâs gaze.
Xiao Lin seemed to have noticed something and smiled brightly. âThatâs right, thereâs a pencil here. Itâs the core of a lotus seed. Smell it and see if it has the same taste as your favorite lotus seed.â
Ajiu lay on her stomach and sniffed it with all her might, just like a little hamster.
In the end, Bai Zhun picked her up and brought her upstairs with the excuse that they had to change clothes for dinner.
Yan Qinâs two friends ate a piece of fruit before using their left hand to touch Master Li who was still teaching. âLater, letâs not be a third wheel, okay?â
âWhat third wheel?â Master Li looked confused.
The two girls signaled Yan Qin with their eyes and then looked upstairs.
Master Li instantly understood, but he didnât quite agree. âBai Zhun doesnât like people to do anything in front of Ajiu, so save your breath. Let me say this first, you wanted to do homework, so I brought you here. Bai Zhun doesnât like people coming to the Bai Family.â
âSo What? Our Goddess Qin is his girlfriend.â The two girls laughed and said, âIt canât be that one foster sister is more important than his girlfriend. I saw that Bai Zhun was quite happy to see Goddess Qin just now.â
Bang!
Master Li put down the pen in his hand heavily!
The loud noise startled the two girls.
âWhat do you mean by adopted sister?â Master Liâs face darkened, and he was actually a little fierce. âWatch your mouth. Thatâs our biological sister.â
Not to mention the two girls, even Yan Qin did not expect Master Li to have such a big reaction.
However, she was smart because of this, she immediately said to Master Li, âOf course itâs my biological sister. I also like Ajiu. Didnât we come to the Bai family because we wanted to see Ajiu? Letâs do the homework. When Ajiu comes down later, shall we braid her hair?â
Master Li finally calmed down, but he was not as enthusiastic as before.
If this was before, he would definitely be very happy with so many girls.
Just now, he thought that his charm had played a role.
However, he felt disgusted and could not say what was wrong at the moment. He told himself that he would never bring girls to the Bai Family again.
Xiao Lin was the most composed person.
He had never taken these girls to heart.
The Xiao Family was different from the Li Family. They were born to be political.
Xiao Lin was destined to mature faster than many people. At this moment, he was thinking about something which had a very direct relationship with Bai Zhun.
Soon, Ajiu changed into her pajamas and came down.
Everyone knew what type of pajamas Ajiu wore. It was either a bear, a cat, or a little tiger. That day, Ajiu was wearing a kitten pajamas. With a sweep of her little tail, her appearance could melt oneâs heart.
Auntie Wang was still busy in the kitchen. When she looked up, she saw Ajiu staggering toward her with a yogurt cake in her little hands. Apparently, she wanted to give it to Auntie Wang.
Auntie Wang opened her mouth and said with a smile, âItâs Delicious.â
âIâll help Auntie Wang get a second bowl,â Ajiu said at the side of the kitchen.
Bai Zhun and Xiao Lin knew Ajiuâs personality, so they didnât care.
On the other hand, although Yan Qin was sitting in the living room writing a question, she still glanced over from time to time.
She didnât understand why this child was so good to a kitchen maid.
Yan Qin stood up and walked to the kitchen. She asked with a smile, âAuntie Wang, is there anything we can help you with?â
âNo, no, Miss Yan. Go Sit Down. Iâll be done soon.â Auntie Wang was busy preparing the dishes.
Ajiu stood there waiting. As soon as the dishes were ready, the child immediately picked them up with both hands and diligently put them on the table.
Seeing this, Yan Qinâs eyes turned and she smiled again. âAjiu, come, let me help you.â
Ajiu looked at her and stopped. Then, she shook her head and said very seriously, âI will need to handle many things as a monk in the future. Buddha thus said that I have to do my own things myself.â
Yan Qin had never seen such a strange child who would keep Buddhaâs words by their mouth all day long.
Moreover, she always felt that this child always clung to Bai Zhun.
She was clearly not his biological sister!
Yan Qin lowered her eyes, and a sharp light flashed across her eyes.
âYoung Master.â Auntie Wang wiped her hands with her apron. âItâs time to eat dinner. Iâve cooked a lot today. In a while, Iâll go to the dining hall in the courtyard to buy some steamed buns for you. I have steamed a lot of rice, and there are sweet potatoes in it. Itâs your favorite food. When you feed Ajiu, be careful not to burn her again.â
Auntie Wang really felt sorry for her Ajiu.
Bai Zhun had once fed someone carelessly and burned the childâs mouth. Since that incident, everything that Ajiu ate had to go through his mouth first.
Hearing Auntie Wangâs reminder, Yan Qin immediately nodded.
Ajiu had always been obedient. Holding her small bowl, she sat on the small wooden chair that belonged to her. Her lotus-root-like legs swung over.
Bai Zhun looked at her hands. Seeing that they were clean, he did not say anything more. He then put down the book in his hand and let everyone eat.
The Bai Family had always had a way of treating guests. They were very strict with their upbringing. Since everyone had come, they would naturally arrange everything properly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The dishes on the table were all vegetarian. The arrangement of the dishes was very beautiful.
The two female students sat down. They were all surprised. âThe vegetarian dishes are still so beautiful. Doesnât the Bai Family eat meat?â
âAjiu believes in Buddhism,â Xiao Lin explained.
One of the female students sat opposite him with a red face.
The other female student also had good eyesight. She pushed Yan Qin and asked her to sit with Bai Zhun.
However, there was a problem with Bai Zhun sitting next to Ajiu.
Seeing this, the female student smiled at the little girl. âAjiu, can you come over and cook? Let your sister Yan and brother talk for a while.â
Ajiuâs little palm had just touched her small bowl, and she thought that it was time to eat. Hearing the female classmateâs words, her little face lifted up, and she was a little dazed.
Xiao Lin looked at the child, and before Bai Zhun could open his mouth, he smiled and suggested, âLet Ajiu sit with me.â
When he said this, he was looking at Bai Zhun.
Bai Zhun did not look at anyone. He directly picked up the spoon next to Ajiu. He blew on it and he fed the rice in the spoon into Ajiuâs mouth. His voice was cold as he said, âIf you want to eat, then sit down. If you donât, then just go out.â
