Chapter 1281: The expanded courtyard, the chaotic era, flower appreciation

after an hour.

"After visiting Grandma Ping, let's go see Senior Sister Ganyu next." Jiang Yi drank three pots of her treasured fairy tea at Grandma Ping's place, and was successfully sent out by Grandma Ping.

"However, Senior Sister Ganyu may be busy at the Lantern Festival. Do you want to go see Master first?" he asked Shen He beside him.

"This morning I used the jade slip to talk to Master... She said she wanted to improve the 'Mechanical Cooking Machine' and send it to Master Lishui Dieshan." Shen He said.

"He said... 'We need to let these two guys who don't know how to cook see what the secrets of the mechanism are. Otherwise... humph! Let the young people who practice cultivation eat wild flowers and weeds every day.'"

"It's a bit strange. Did Master Xueyue Zhuyang and Master Lishui Dieshan accept any disciples?"

Jiang Yi looked at his senior sister who suddenly became cute.

In winter and summer, except around the Lantern Festival, Senior Sister practices with the immortals in Jueyunjian, and in spring and autumn she "adapts to life on earth" in Liyue Harbor.

It's you who eats wild flowers and weeds! Senior sister!

When Shen He was not around, other secretaries reported the company's situation to Jiang Yi.

"Since Master is also busy, let's wait two days before visiting him!" Jiang Yi pushed open the gate of his Yujingtai courtyard.

There are neatly trimmed bamboos inside the gate and a gorgeous screen wall. Walking around the archway, you can see three or four stone benches and a stone table, all clean and tidy.

The entire courtyard seems to have been renovated and expanded.

But usually when Jiang Yi is not here, only Shen He lives here.

"This is what Miss Ningguang meant..." Shen He said lightly.

"Is she afraid that I have too many friends and the previous yard can't accommodate them all?" Jiang Yi was speechless. This kind of concern might not be necessary.

The courtyard has become larger and the whole environment has become more quiet.

There were no guards or maids. Although Ningguang sent people to help clean up, something didn't seem right.

"Yandora, pick a room!"

"Oh, right!"

"Fushe, Fanan, Yingda, and Minu have nowhere to stay in Liyue Harbor. If they want to participate in the Lantern Festival, we need to arrange a house for them."

"Ying and Paimon..."

"Okay! When it's needed, unless we ask everyone to live in the cave, this yard is really not big enough..." Jiang Yi slapped his forehead.

Not to mention Shin and Heulia who can't come out now, if his friends in other countries come to Liyue to travel together, they can fill up the yard.

After walking a few steps, I found that "jade screens" had been hung in the renovated courtyard, living room and some rooms.

“Could this be the reason why Ningguang helped me renovate the yard? No, it’s Keqing who is in charge of the land, so she also contributed to this?” Jiang Yi looked at the courtyard full of Liyue Harbor’s modern decoration and traditional style. Is this a surprise given to him by the two Seven Stars?

"It seems that you don't hate it..." Shen He naturally knew everything. At this moment, he was just observing Jiang Yi's reaction for Keqing and Ningguang.

"This was my dream! Even in my dreams, I can't imagine a yard like this because of the lack of memory material." Jiang Yi stood in front of the house for a long time without moving.

This year marks the third Lantern Festival in Teyvat.

According to real time calculation, it has been almost three years since I came into this world.

And the time spent by consciousness, the time spent by the body under the law of time...the world has changed so much, and when we look back, we see eight thousand years of spring and autumn.

In ancient times there was a tree called Dachun, which took eight thousand years as spring and eight thousand years as autumn.

Infinite knowledge transforms into infinite wisdom, and the bridge connecting the two is thinking over a long period of time.

Swim freely in the ocean of knowledge and reach the stars of wisdom.

Eight thousand years is but a moment for heaven and earth.

The tests that mortals need to face in becoming gods are far longer than eight thousand years.

It was as if he had spent the same amount of time as the heaven and earth... Jiang Yi thought of Sanbing's words. For a god, there would be no illusions.

What the scattered soldiers said was, of course, true.

The origin of this feeling may be that after the Scattered Soldiers connected to the World Tree, they sensed the long memories and years of the World Tree; or after the Scattered Soldiers connected to the Heart of God, they sensed the long memories and years of the Heart of God; or perhaps it was something else...

It's just that the scattered soldiers did not endure the trials of so many years and sublimate their spirits into gods. After waking up, they could only say it was as if they had forgotten everything.

As for the doctors with the fighting power of gods, they are not gods, so naturally they will not have the feeling of becoming gods.

God and Tao are the same.

Hold the authority of heaven and earth.

……

"This afternoon, the General Affairs Department released the program for the Sea Lantern Festival."

"It is worth noting that..."

"Compared to the first version rumored on the Internet, several new programs have been added."

"The grand finale will be the 'Rainbow Tour Special Performance', which will be performed live on the harbor stage in the form of a concert and will be broadcast live simultaneously to add to the festive celebrations..."

"Qiaoying Manor, Qingce Manor, Guili New Town, Wangshu Inn...many places have prepared big screens to celebrate the Lantern Festival with fellow villagers."

“This is an unprecedented event.”

“Thank you to everyone in Liyue for their hard work this year.”

"While the government was busy preparing for the Lantern Festival, folk artists and composers also spontaneously prepared an 'online Lantern Festival evening party' to commemorate the new year and the new atmosphere."

Jiang Yi, who had just returned from visiting Qiqi and Baizhu at Bubulu, was eating melon seeds.

Chinese New Year is boring yet not boring.

Just walk around and then sit at home and watch the show.

For Liyue, this year will definitely be the most lively one and the one that will be most memorable for both the elderly and children in the future.

"The Knights of Mondstadt send their blessings to Liyue..."

"The Inazuma Society wishes everyone in Liyue a happy Lantern Festival..."

Jiang Yi looked at Qin and Kamisato Ayaka who appeared on the jade screen.

Mondstadt is next to Liyue, so the Floating Tower can be directly built on several mountains, while Inazuma is separated by a sea. The solution to the signal problem is to build a super-large signal transmission station directly there and pray for the blessing of the gods.

So, I successfully connected to the network here.

Ah this!

Jiang Yi looked at Kamisato Ayaka's face. This was probably the first time Kamisato Ayaka appeared publicly in the jade slip.

"Jiang Yijun, did you see me?"

"Phew! So nervous!"

"I should have called my brother to come..."

The jade slip vibrated.

Yandora, who was sitting on Jiang Yi's left, and Shen He, who was sitting on his right, looked at the jade slip that Jiang Yi had placed on the table.

"It seems that you will be a little busy later?" Shen He counted the girls Jiang Yi knew and gave each of them one minute to reply, which was enough for him to hold the jade slip for a long time.

"We had some flowers and herbs for lunch. If we have guests next time, I'll ask the master to make a few more 'Cooking Machines' so we can cook."

Jiang Yi glanced at the kitchen.

The kitchen houses various trial products produced by the company's laboratory.

Ice flower refrigerator, wind slime temperature regulator, fire slime heating and insulation box, mechanical washing machine... The above statements, although named as "liar flower" and "slime", there are no "liar flower" and "slime" installed in the instruments, they are just for the purpose of visually demonstrating the functions of the instruments.

Inexplicably, Jiang Yi felt more and more confused.

Although it was he who led the change, isn’t Teyvat too strange today?

When I, my senior sister and Yandora were sitting in the room, I would feel ashamed whenever I answered a phone call.

He subconsciously called out Shiranui and Yuki Onna.

Although no one was a talkative person, they easily broke the previous subtle atmosphere and swept away Jiang Yi's guilt.

"Ayaka, good afternoon!" He replied easily, "I see you! From now on, Princess Egret may not only be famous in Inazuma, but also in Teyvat."

Shiranui and Yuki Onna, who were called out inexplicably, stood there, not knowing whether to sit or walk, and looked at each other in confusion.

Shen He made tea and motioned for the two to sit down.

Yandora curled up on the sofa barefoot and blinked.

Moved to the side to make room.

The yard is big, but Yandora feels that the room is still not big enough! Otherwise, she could invite girls from three countries to celebrate the Lantern Festival together.

Like raindrops gathering into a sea, it is full of love.

……

"Hiss—" Dvorak, a musician from Fontaine, looked at the program list on the screen and couldn't help but cover his chest. "The efficiency of the Seven Stars is too high!"

"After the failure of the previous 'Rainbow Tour', I didn't have much hope for this concert. I didn't expect Seven Stars to attach so much importance to it and directly set the concert as the finale."

"Now, even I, the host, am getting nervous."

"This is the first live broadcast of the Liyue Lantern Festival. Is it really okay not to have your country's program as the finale?"

"Hehe!" Paimon laughed, "Keqing said that although the Lantern Festival is a traditional event of Liyue, this year's Lantern Festival activities are definitely not only held by Liyue people. In this era, embracing every different culture and creating a diverse world together is the new look of Liyue. Moreover, after the finale, there is another show to close the show."

"Besides, the opening of the Lantern Festival... is a Liyue show!"

Ying put her hands on her hips and said, "I believe the band you lead will not let everyone down."

Dvorak smiled and said, "This is a more grand music event than the one I held in Fontaine. If it weren't for your connections, I don't think I would have gotten this opportunity."

"The legendary immortal actually exists, and is so wise and tolerant of new things; the high and mighty Seven Stars of Liyue can personally meet me... I can't even imagine it."

"The last time I came to Liyue Harbor to promote the 'Rainbow Tour', there were only a handful of people willing to pay attention to me."

He looked towards Liyue’s Sky Lanterns, where the concert stage was located.

"Minghai Qixia Zhenjun, according to legend, acts freely, treats people sincerely, and is open-minded by nature." Paimeng said, "If music can be spread everywhere along with the flowing water, I think the spirits of the immortals and heroes in the past will also like the melody of this era..."

"That's great." Dvorak carried his instrument on his back. "I have to prepare now... I'll try to rehearse a few more times before the show starts."

"Don't worry! Once we find out what you asked us to find out, we will come and tell you." Paimeng knew that this uncle did not have the jade slip.

After saying goodbye to the uncle, Paimeng looked at Ying: "Shall we...shall we go back to Jiang Yi's yard to stay? All the inns around the Lantern Festival are booked out, and they are very expensive!"

"... Exactly. We had a conflict with Jiang Yi before. Would it be awkward to go back now?"

"It can't be that he lives in Chen Ge Hu again!"

A familiar voice suddenly appeared in the jade screen.

"Wow! Captain Jean, and Ayaka..." Paimon was startled and looked up at Jean and Kamisato Ayaka who were wishing everyone in Liyue a happy Lantern Festival.

“……”Ying lowered her head and looked at the message on the jade slip.

Jiang Yi did send her a few messages in the past two days, but she ignored them.

I lowered my head and walked against the flow of people who came to see the lanterns.

"Hey!" Paimon suddenly realized that Ying was gone, and hurriedly flew high, seeing the blond in the crowd, "Where are you going?"

"Yu Jingtai..." Ying said.

"Go find Keqing and Ganyu again?" Paimon wondered.
