"It seems that I have to build that thing in advance.”Staring at his own purple eyes in the mirror, Moxie's gaze became even more profound. From this, it could be seen that the Evil God's Heart's charm had a very good effect.
After muttering to himself, Moxie returned the mirror to Ino.
"Jun Moxie…this is for you!”Just as Ino took the mirror and kept it, Xiao Ying suddenly stepped forward and took out a pink silk pouch from her bag and handed it to Moxie. Seeing this, Ino also hurriedly took out a silk pouch inlaid with golden threads and handed it to Moxie."Jun Moxie, please accept mine as well!”
There were two names for this kind of brocade bag. One was called a sachet, and the other was a prayer brocade bag. Most of them would contain New Year jade, possession talismans, New Year cards, and the like. Sachets were specially embroidered by women to give to men. The process was very big. The silk needed to be smeared with spices. Just the embroidery process alone made many women's fingers full of bloody holes. Sachet also represented a person's thoughts. Unless they hated the woman very much, most of the men who received sachets from the woman would accept them. In fact, they even had to accept them.
"Thank you!" Staring at the two sachets in front of him, Moxie smiled and took them naturally, putting them into his pocket.
Seeing Moxie take the sachet, Ino and Sakura's faces lit up with joy. Especially Ino, who said excitedly,""That's great! Jun Moxie has accepted it!”
Xiao Ying, who was beside him, was also full of joy. It was not an easy thing to get close to Moxie. In the past three months in the Ninja School, even if Ino was brave and unafraid of setbacks, he would always shamelessly approach Moxie whenever he saw him. The number of times Moxie took the initiative to speak to her was not many. It wasn't that Moxie hated Ino and Sakura, but that he was still busy teaching the newbies and didn't have the time to care about love affairs.
"Jun Moxie, do you want to play with me?”After cheering, Ino extended an invitation to Moxie, his bright eyes looking at Moxie expectantly.
Xiao Ying was also pinching the corner of her clothes, full of anticipation.
"No, you guys play!" Moxie shook his head and refused,"I still have things to do."”
"What is it? Do you need our help?”Moxie's rejection was within Ino and Xiao Ying's expectations. This was Moxie's style of doing things. It would be surprising if Moxie agreed. They had only invited him because they wanted to use this opportunity to express their desires. Therefore, upon hearing Moxie's words, Ino and Xiao Ying didn't feel disappointed. Instead, they asked curiously.
"No need, I just went to the rice shop to buy something!”Moxie said with a smile.
"Rice shop? Buying things!" And this sentence allowed Ino to capture the key point. He immediately said to Moxie,""Moxie Jun, are you going to pound the rice cake?”
Smashing rice cakes was one of the customs of the New Year. Almost every family would make some rice cakes to celebrate the festival.
"Yes, I am." Moxie nodded.
"That's great! Xiao Ying, let's help Jun Moxie too!”Ino pulled Xiao Ying's hand and suggested. He didn't expect that Moxie hadn't even agreed to her help.
"Yes!" Xiao Ying nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
Ino's eyes were shining as he looked at Moxie."Jun Moxie, can we help you?”
"Popping rice cakes is a very troublesome and boring thing. It requires a lot of patience and time. If you're not afraid of being tired, come with me!”Moxie put one hand into his pocket and touched the two sachets in his pocket. He thought for a moment and slowly said. Then, he walked towards the biggest rice shop in the village.
Ino and Sakura quickly came to Moxie's side, as if they hadn't heard Moxie's words. Popping rice cakes was indeed a very boring thing. They didn't have the time and patience to help their parents at home, but this was also a matter of people. If they were helping their families, they would naturally feel bored. After a while, they would be extremely tired, and they would even stop working and run out to play. However, if he were to pound rice cakes with Moxie, who he had a crush on and admired, he believed that he wouldn't feel tired even if he didn't eat a single grain of rice from morning till night.
As the saying goes, men and women work, and work is not tiring.
After arriving at the biggest rice shop in Muye, Moxie bought a set of tools to pound the rice cakes, as well as the glutinous rice and other ingredients needed for the rice cakes. He handed the bag of ingredients to Ino and Sakura, then picked up his tools and rushed back to the forest.
After passing through the jungle, they first arrived at the waterfall, and then they saw the wooden house behind a few big trees.
"So, Jun Moxie, you're living here now! No wonder every time I went to your house, the doors and windows were always closed. Even last night, there was no light. I thought that it was because I met you every time you went out on a mission. I didn't expect that you had already moved here.”Ino looked at the wooden house in front of him with his mouth agape.
"Isn't Jun Moxie afraid of staying here at night?”Xiao Ying asked curiously.
"You don't have to be afraid if you're used to living here. The environment here is very good. No one comes over, and it's very quiet.”
"That…Jun Moxie, can I come here often to play in the future?”Ino asked anxiously.
"Whatever! However, I often go out to do missions and rarely stay at home. If it weren't for the holidays, I wouldn't have stayed at home for so long.”Moxie said casually.
"That's great. Xiao Ying and I can come over every day to help you clean up. That way, you can stay in a clean room when you come back.”Ino cheered as if he had received Moxie's approval. And her words caused Moxie's eyes to waver slightly. This wasn't the first time he had heard Ino's words, nor was it the second time he had heard it, nor was it the first time a girl had said this to him. The first person to say this to Moxie was Chu Tian. At that time, Moxie was very surprised that the shy Chu Tian actually mustered up the courage to say such words to him. The second person was Tian Tian, who had discovered his house after Chu Tian.
The previous two times, Moxie had nodded in agreement. But this time, he shook his head and said,""There's no need. Someone has already done this work.”
"Someone did it? Who is it?" Ino and Sakura were extremely puzzled.
Moxie didn't reply. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the two figures standing in front of his house.
[P.S. After a few more chapters to lay the foundation for the relationship between the man and the four women, it's time to start the first high-level event of the book-the Chuunin exam!]
