The little girl introduced herself to Mu Ge."My name is Xun Xin. Can you show me the cigarettes you made?”
"Of course." Mu Ge smiled and nodded.”
Xun Xin casually took the cigarette from Mu Ge and played with it curiously. She put it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it. She frowned and said,""How can this be a cigarette? It's clearly smelly smoke. How can someone buy such a smelly thing?”
Xun Yu was very embarrassed. He grabbed Xun Xin's hand and dragged her away. If he let this sister stay any longer, he would feel too ashamed to face Mu Ge.
" Big Brother, I'm not leaving. Let go of Xin 'er. Otherwise, I'll tell Mother that you bullied Big Brother Xin' er."
Mu Ge watched Xun Yu and his sister leave and couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect Xun Yu to have a younger sister. Moreover, this younger sister was so different from the other girls who were educated and reasonable since they were young. Xun Xin was a little different, mischievous and fun.
However, Xun Xin gave Mu Ge a sense of familiarity. Perhaps it had been a long time since he had seen such a woman.
In his previous life, many of his ex-girlfriends had the same personality. They liked to play with Mu Ge like a child, but they broke up for various reasons. Perhaps it was because Mu Ge was too romantic and did not like to hang on to a tree…
Mu Ge returned to his room to rest for a while, but Xun Xin ran over again. She sneakily waited for Xun Yu to leave before running over to look for Mu Ge.
"Mu Ge, quickly teach me how to use this cigarette. I heard Big Brother say that you're smoking. Xin-er doesn't know how to smoke.”Xun Xin curiously took out the cigarette that Mu Ge gave her and asked Mu Ge.
Mu Ge smiled and shook his head." No, no. You need to light it with a candle and put it in your mouth to inhale."”
"Then quickly teach me. Xiner wants to smoke too!”Xun Xin urged impatiently.
"Um, women are not allowed to smoke." Mu Ge did not want to lead the underage astray.
"Why not? If you guys can smoke, why can't Xiner smoke? You're bullying Xiner just like Eldest Brother!”Xun Xin looked at Mu Ge with her big eyes after she finished speaking. She looked pitiful and misty. She looked like she could melt the ice and snow in the world.
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll teach you how to smoke." Mu Ge was instantly defeated by this girl.
"Brother Mu, you're the best. I'll call you Brother Mu from now on.”Xun Xin immediately put on a smug smile.
Mu Ge smiled bitterly. He couldn't bear to see a girl cry, even if she was so young.
Moreover, Xun Xin was definitely a beauty. She had a fair and rosy face, a pair of big black eyes, a red mouth, and sharp facial features. She looked very beautiful when she smiled.
Coupled with her long hair that fell on her shoulders, she was innocent and lively, like a little angel who had descended into the world.
" Cough, cough." As Mu Ge expected, the girl coughed non-stop the moment she was whipped. Her snow-white neck was red from choking.
"Just drink some water." Mu Ge poured her a glass of water and comforted her back.
This kind of action was very common in modern times, but in ancient times, it was a little frivolous. This was skin to skin contact.
Xun Xin immediately moved away from Mu Ge. Her face was red as she threw the cigarette butt away and shouted,""It's clearly smelly smoke! Brother Mu is a bad guy! Lying to Xiner! I'm not playing with you anymore!" After saying that, the girl ran away without looking back, leaving Mu Ge confused.
At night, Xun Yu came to Mu Ge and said that he wanted to treat him to a meal. Mu Ge thanked him and went to the hall. He did not expect Xun Yu's father to be there.
"Greetings, Lord Xun." Mu Ge hurriedly bowed to the other party. Xun Kun was a former official. Even though he had retired and returned to his hometown, there were still many old friends in the court.
Xun Kun's appearance was somewhat similar to Xun Yu's, but his face was dignified without anger and looked a little serious.
"Yes, I heard from Xun Yu that you invented the 'cigarette' and all the young masters of the aristocratic families are fighting over it?”Xun Kun asked.
" Yes." Mu Ge nodded respectfully." It's just a treasure passed down by my master. Mu Ge didn't expect so many people to like it."”
"Can I see this?" Xun Kun asked.
In just one day, a new and fun luxury item called 'cigarettes' had already spread among the disciples of the various aristocratic families. It was very popular among the hedonistic sons and scholars of the aristocratic families.
Xun Kun had also heard it by chance today, but he didn't pay much attention to it at that time. Later on, when he returned home, Xun Yu told him about it, and he was a little curious.
"Of course you can." Mu Ge took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Xun Kun. He then demonstrated how to smoke for Xun Kun.
In order to prevent Xun Kun from coughing, Mu Ge reminded Xun Kun to smoke in small sips and not swallow it. This made Xun Kun the first person in this era who did not choke from smoking.
"When this thing inhales and exhales, there is actually such a scene of smoke lingering around it. It is indeed quite magical.”Xun Kun smiled and commented.
Xun Yu smiled and said," Father, you might not know this. If you take this regularly, it can strengthen your body and prolong your life. If you like it, I can buy some from Brother Ziyu."”
"Oh? It has such an effect?" Xun Kun looked at Mu Ge and asked.
Mu Ge felt ashamed. He was just a dog skin plaster seller. How could he believe his words? If smoking could really strengthen the body, there would not be so many people suffering from lung cancer in modern society.
However, there was no way to take back this lie, so Mu Ge could only nod in agreement.
"Forget it, I don't like this taste.”Xun Kun wasn't interested in the cigarettes either. Mu Ge thought to himself that the whole family was a good comrade who didn't smoke.
The servant girl brought the dishes up. Xun Yu invited Mu Ge to take a seat, but Xun Kun did not eat with them. He and his wife, Xun Yu's mother, were eating in the backyard.
Mu Ge thought that they were the only ones eating today, but a small figure walked into the dining hall. It was Xun Xin.
