Jing Liqiu helped the eldest lady write a short letter.
Although there are few sentences in the letter, it carries a mother's full longing for her children and grandchildren.
When Jing Liqiu sealed the letter, he felt heavy in his hand.
Not long after, the old lady and Ling Suxue made up the bed, she pointed to a large bed in the bedroom and said, "This is the bed that my son and daughter-in-law used to sleep in, and you two husbands and wives will spend the night here tonight!" ā
Jing and Ling were stunned for a moment, quickly shook their heads and waved their hands, and said in unison: "We are not husband and wife!" ā
"Huh?" The eldest lady smiled embarrassedly: "You are so compatible, are you not husband and wife?" ā
"Hmmm! No! She used to be my sister and is now my friend! Jing Liqiu explained.
"I'm sorry about that! Blame me for being clumsy! The eldest lady embarrassedly pulled Ling Suxue and walked to the other bedroom: "Ling girl, such a handsome and extraordinary man, how can you just be friends with him?" ā
Ling Suxue's face was confused, and she didn't understand the deep meaning of the old lady's words.
The old lady's face was ashamed: "That young man is good at kung fu, and he is handsome!" If I had been young and unmarried, I would have pestered him to be abducted into my boudoir! ā
Ling Suxue's cheeks flushed, and she quickly shook her head: "Auntie, don't be joking." I am a cultivator, and I can't move my heart, not to mention that I have a heavy responsibility on my body, and I will never marry anyone in this life. ā
"So you are a Taoist aunt! What a pity! What a handsome young man, just missed by you! The old lady sighed regretfully: "Alas...... If you don't dislike it tonight, sleep with me! ā
Ling Suxue nodded.
Jing Liqiu suddenly walked over: "Su Xue, my bed will be for you to sleep on, I can sleep on the ground." ā
The old lady's eyes shone brightly, and she smiled slyly with a careful heart: "It's okay, she sleeps on the bed, on the ground next to your bed, the two of you are in the same room, and there is a good care, I'll go find an old bunk to cover the floor!" ā
The eldest lady left with a smile, and couldn't help but think of the situation when her son chased her daughter-in-law.
is also like this, the daughter-in-law sleeps on the bed, and the son sleeps on the ground to guard.
By the end of the night, the two guests had fallen asleep.
The old lady cleaned up the table, swept the floor, tiptoed to the door of the bedroom with the candlestick, looked at Ling Suxue who was sleeping on the top of the bed facing the wall, and frowned: "This spirit girl is so stunned!" I didn't even know that I was facing out of bed! ā
Then she shook her head and walked away.
It seems that it is useless for her to match other people's marriages.
After a while, the old lady returned to her bedroom, closed the quilt, closed her eyes and hugged the memories of her son, and fell asleep happily.
Following.
The morning sun is like soft silk, swaying on the earth.
Lingsu Xue's slender figure was already in the backyard, clothed in the morning light, practicing morning exercises.
Jing Liqiu stood at the door of the backyard with a sleepy face, stretching his waist and yawning, and said in a different tone: "Su Xue, you are too diligent!" I actually brought the set of morning exercises in the unfixed view here to practice. ā
Ling Suxue stretched out her arms and stretched her chest, and said with a smile while doing exercises: "Although I was kicked out by the uncertain view, my heart of cultivation has not decreased. ā
"Tsk!" Jing Liqiu frowned and smiled bitterly: "What a beautiful embryo, you have to cultivate!" I don't know what's going on in your head! ā
"That's it! What a yellow flower girl! I actually gave up the world of flowers and learned to be a Taoist aunt with a pure heart and few desires! The figure of the old lady came over at some point.
Ling Suxue was embarrassed, but kept smiling: "Auntie, everyone is born with their own mission, and my mission is to become an immortal." ā
"Oh my God! You're really crazy, so it's so good to become an immortal? "The old lady is disdainful.
Ling Suxue smiled, no matter what others said, she would not give up the goal of returning to the Heavenly Realm.
Jing Liqiu felt that the atmosphere was awkward, and immediately quipped: "Auntie, you don't understand, she is so ambitious!" Let's make her an immortal, let's go have breakfast! ā
"Okay! This morning I made my son's favorite hand-rolled noodles, a soup stewed with white radish, which tastes better than the restaurant in town! The old lady boasted confidently.
Jing Liqiu instigated a mouthful of saliva: "That's great!" I used to eat the clear soup in the Taoist temple with little water, but now I want to eat two more bowls! ā
When they left the backyard, he didn't forget to remind Ling Suxue: "Hurry up and finish the exercises, eat noodles in the house today!" ā
"Got it!" Ling Suxue smiled and watched them leave.
Back in the hall, Jing Liqiu looked at a large bowl of white hot noodles on the table, salivating: "It's so fragrant!" ā
"You eat more, I'll roll out some noodles!" The old lady beckoned.
Jing Liqiu sat down unceremoniously, picked up the chopsticks and ate it in a big gulp, because the taste was really good, and he didn't care about burning his mouth, so he finished eating a bowl after three times and five divided by two.
The old lady brought another bowl, looked at Jing Liqiu's mouth with the residual noodles hanging on the corner, and said happily: "You are really like my son!" He eats the rolled noodles I made, and the corners of his mouth are also covered like this! ā
"Hey, that's rude." Jing Liqiu took out the Chinese towel in his arms and wiped it: "Auntie, the noodles you made are really delicious." ā
"Then I'll make you another bowl?"
"No, no, that's enough, it's enough to eat two bowls, just leave one bowl for Su Xue."
"You're pretty good at thinking about Miss Ling! When my son pursued my daughter-in-law, he also thought about her in the same way. But my daughter-in-law, Miss Billing, is clever and knows how to capture my son's heart. ā
"Huh! I'm afraid that the eldest lady has misunderstood, I only have a simple friendship with Miss Ling, and I, like her, may not be able to start a family in my life. ā
"Huh? How can you be the same as the spirit girl, it seems that this cultivation path is not shallow! The old lady said regretfully: "You are still young, you can still walk around and look outside, when you are old and I can't walk anymore, and your children and grandchildren are not around, when you are alone, you will know how lonely and lonely it is to live alone!" ā
When Jing Liqiu heard this, he felt sad, and took the old lady's hand and said, "Auntie, tomorrow I will send you to Qingshui Town to reunite with my son, right?" ā
"No!" The eldest lady gently pushed Jing Liqiu's hand away, and her eyes showed a trace of desolation: "I'm an old country woman, covered in mud and unclean, so don't bother them." Their family of five lives well, and I am content. ā
"Since you can't bear to live with your children and grandchildren for a long time, then go to Qingshui Town to play for a few days, and then I'm sending you back, and I have nowhere to go anyway."
"Don't you have a home, young man?"
"I ...... It's an orphan. ā
When the eldest lady heard this, she burst into tears, raised her sleeves and wiped: "They are all poor people." ā
"Auntie, don't cry, I'm not bitter, although I don't know who my parents are, but I have a group of brothers who live on Kunlun Mountain. What's more, I still have a friend like Miss Ling! Jing Liqiu comforted.
The old lady smiled bitterly with tears in her eyes, and couldn't bear to say anything more.
Jing Liqiu continued to ask: "Auntie, shall I send you to Qingshui Town to play for a few days?" ā
"No need. Going and coming back will only make you more sad, so it's better not to go. With that, the old lady turned around and walked to the kitchen, washed the dishes and chopsticks.
After a while, Ling Suxue approached the hall and asked the handsome guy at the table: "Brother Jing, why does the eldest lady look unhappy?" ā
"Because she misses her children and grandchildren......" Jing Liqiu looked at the front and said abruptly. (To be continued.) )
