Chapter 52




52 Five-Animal Play

The expected pain did not come. Ji Zhao opened her eyes nervously and realized that things were not simple-

At this moment, she was only an inch away from Shen Yao.

More importantly, she was lying on top of him?

The moment their eyes met, Ji Zhao felt her heart beating non-stop.

“I’m… I’m sorry…” Ji Zhao hurriedly stood up with an awkward expression on her face.

“It’s fine.” Shen Yao slowly got up and elegantly wiped the dust off his clothes. He asked gently, “Did you hurt yourself?”

“No, no injuries.”

Ji Zhao subconsciously scratched her head and smiled sheepishly.

“But why are there watermelons here?”

“Many families in Shanghe Village have planted western melons, but these western melons are too watery. Moreover, they often go to the toilet after eating too much, so no one likes to eat it.”

Shen Yao explained patiently.

Ji Zhao pondered for a moment and understood.

After all, to the people living in this era, filling their stomachs was the most important goal.

Compared to other melons that could fill their stomachs, watermelons were indeed not filling. Moreover, too much water would make people want to use the restroom. In this way, it would reduce productivity. No wonder watermelons were so unpopular here!

“Then can we pick this watermelon back?” Ji Zhao stared at the round watermelon and could not help but swallow.

“Yes.” Looking at the innocent smile on her face, Shen Yao silently curled his lips and nodded slightly.

Ji Zhao was overjoyed. She quickly squatted in the watermelon field and carefully snapped the watermelon’s vines.

“This watermelon is so heavy!” Ji Zhao said with a frown as she picked up the heavy watermelon.

“I got it.”

Shen Yao easily picked up the heavy watermelon.

Ji Zhao silently gave him a thumbs up.

“When we get home, we’ll put this big watermelon in the well and cut it open tomorrow after lunch?”

“Okay.”

When Shen Yao heard the word “home”, the smile in his eyes deepened.

The search for melons came to an end. Ji Zhao, who had returned to her room, fell asleep in a few seconds.

The next morning, when Shen Yao, who was copying calligraphy in the house, heard laughter coming from the courtyard, he curiously opened the window.

In the courtyard, Ji Zhao, who was wearing a light pink dress, was like an exquisite peach blossom, bright and beautiful.

“Mother, look, we have to slow down in this position,” Ji Zhao explained with a gentle smile. “Follow my example~”

Ji Zhao bent her knees slightly. After her feet pulled away, she slowly spread her hands-

“What are you guys doing?” Shen Yao walked to the two of them curiously and asked softly with a faint smile.

“Ah Tao is teaching me an exercise!” Zhao Lanhua, who was in high spirits, said happily, “Third Brother, look, is Mother doing well?”

“I’m teaching Mother the Five Animal Play.” Ji Zhao smiled and explained gently, “The Five Animal Play is a special cultivation technique that nourishes one’s health. Every morning, when one wakes up to do the Five Animal Play, it will make one feel refreshed and energetic. Do you want to come along?”

“Okay.”

Ji Zhao smiled gently and explained patiently, “The Five Animal Play is not difficult. When you use your hands and feet, you must learn to breathe. The Five Animal Play consists of one: bear, two: deer, three: bear, four: ape, five: bird.”

Ji Zhao explained as she demonstrated, “After you finish the entire set, your body will sweat slightly. Do you want to try?”
