Chapter 2 - Skipping School

A paper ball was thrown over and landed right on Ji Aier's desk. She didn't need to open it to know that Ji En must want to skip school again. Every time he wanted to skip school, he would throw a note to her, which was to inform her that she had to follow him. Ji Aier turned her head and looked at Ji En, who was sitting at the desk behind her in the left row. He was packing his things.

The class today is really boring, Ji En thought, so he stuffed his books into his schoolbag as if he were collecting garbage.

He was very smart. Although he often skipped school, it didn't affect his getting high scores at all. In this school, his schoolwork, along with Cheng Zongyi's and Tang Jun's, was the best, and they were also the best of friends. And no matter how hard she tried, she could only barely stay at a medium level.

Ji Aier had a good impression of Cheng Zongyi. He was always very polite. She had never seen a driver pick him up in a nice car either, so there didn't seem to be any air of a pampered young master about him, unlike Ji En, who was like a tyrant. Although the Ji family was very strict about etiquette, Ji Aier couldn't see how high Ji En's cultivation was.

After climbing over the school wall, Ji En threw his schoolbag to Ji Aier. She understood why he always made her follow him when he skipped school. It turned out that he needed someone to carry his schoolbag for him.

Ji En and Ji Aier took a taxi and came to a small stream. Ji Aier felt all the hairs on her body stand up. She looked at Ji En in confusion, not knowing what he was going to do.

"I found there are a lot of small fish here!" Ji En said happily. Then he took off his school uniform jacket and threw it aside, rolled up his trouser legs, and walked towards the stream. This was a precious place he had好不容易 found. There were mountains and water here, the scenery was beautiful, and the air was very fresh.

"Ji En, better not. The butler will scold us later!" If he got his clothes all dirty, it wouldn't be him who got scolded, but she who would be in trouble. Although the butler had repeatedly admonished her to call Ji En "Young Master," every time Ji En would threaten her not to call him that.

"You coward, come down quickly, or I'll go back and tell the butler that you pushed me into the mud pit today." Ji En actually threatened Ji Aier without changing his expression. He just liked to scare her and then watch her depressed expression.

If there was someone in the world that Ji Aier hated the most and could honestly and bravely shout out, then she would not hesitate to say it was Ji En. But she had no choice. She could only put the two schoolbags on a patch of grass that Ji Aier thought was relatively clean, then drape her jacket over the schoolbags, roll up her trouser legs, and follow him into the water.

The stream was very clear, so you could clearly see there were a lot of fish in it. They swam in groups like this, but they were all not very big, probably only about two or three centimeters long. The water in the stream was very cold, and it wasn't deep, only reaching up to the knees. The feeling of stepping on the sand and soaking in the water was very comfortable, just like enjoying a massage.

"What are you daydreaming about? Come and help me block that side." Ji En's voice broke Ji Aier's reverie. He asked her to help him block one end, and then he would drive the fish from the other end, so that the fish would enter the small net he had prepared in advance.

But because Ji Aier's movements were not as agile as those of the small fish, the small fish easily slipped past her feet and palms. After three attempts, they didn't catch anything. Ji En was so angry that he called her as stupid as the clumsy hulk in the cartoon Popeye who was often bullied by Popeye.

Ji Aier resigned herself to not defending herself. Anyway, it was useless to argue. All she could do was try every means to help Ji En catch the fish.

Finally, they changed their strategy. Instead of attacking from both sides, they changed to guiding from one side. So she and Ji En stood on the same line and began to drive the small fish into their net. She could even imagine the scene where when they lifted the net later, they could see a lot of small fish jumping in the net.

Ji En excitedly lifted the net, but the scene that Ji Aier had imagined didn't appear. Instead, there was something black and slippery struggling desperately in the net.

Ji En reached out and grabbed it, then suddenly held it in front of Ji Aier. Ji Aier almost screamed reflexively and was on the verge of falling into the stream. From then on, she knew that the thing she was most afraid of was loach.

Three Poems about Butterflies

By Xu Yin (Tang Dynasty)

Not like the moths in the cocoons that can't fly together,Where there are fragrant flowers, they will surely pass by.The wind of the sky sends them gently floating away,And they laugh at the spider's vainly weaving its web.

Gracefully they flutter in pairs by the painted railing,The beautiful lady steals glances at them again and again.Don't despise their short wings that fly not far,Try to catch them among the flowers, and it's already difficult.

They flutter freely without anything to tie them down,How many wild gardens and desolate paths there are!Without hearing the music, who taught them to dance?They should rely on the warbling orioles to sing for them.
