The fifth day of the crossing
Qingling didn't have much to do, most of the things were done by men, and the women could only sit and wait for the men to come back from doing good things. Their caretakers gave them a large bunk and told them to stay here and rest for a few days, waiting for the groups to gather before they set out.
Because the old lady died, everyone was in no mood to speak, and they were each staying in their own children, confused and looking around, not knowing what they were thinking. Su Mingzhu also sat at the foot of the bed with her head down, her shoulders shaking from time to time, accompanied by one or two sobs, thinking that she was crying.
Qingling, although she can't empathize, she also feels a little sorry and melancholy for this family. The Su family can be regarded as being implicated by their own family. And everyone in the Su family is good, although there are some flaws, or machismo, or unpopular things, but they are also extremely educated and very reasonable.
Everyone was in a low mood, the little fat man was also asleep, Qingling just took advantage of this to check her current body, this body also has a spiritual root, and the qualifications are better than those in the previous life, it is a three-spirit root, water, wood and fire. Qingling was happy, this is also very good, she was limited in her previous life and qualifications, and she repeatedly studied the exercises and practiced before she reached the foundation, but the foundation building failed.
The heart moved at will, and Qingling skillfully used the exercises of the previous life that she was familiar with. It was only a second-rate exercise in Ling Tiange, and it was only obtained by Qing Ling after wasting the strength of the Nine Bulls and Two Tigers. Heaven and Earth Dueling is not high in terms of talent, but it is not aggressive, and it is more gentle to cultivate one's body with qi in order to achieve the goal of immortality. This kind of exercise with weak attack power was not very popular in the cultivation world at that time, so Qingling had a chance to get it.
The first step of cultivating qi into the body, Qingling was already ripe and could no longer be cooked, but Qingling found that the aura of this world was far from being compared with the cultivation realm that Qingling was originally in, and the aura of this world was very thin. Qingling was very disappointed, but after thinking about it, she could only comfort herself that she was fortunate to have at least aura.
Qingling thought that she was about to start on the road, and there were too many unknowns along the way. Qingling never pinned her hopes on others, and this kind of powerless day made her really insecure. And this body is originally grown in the deep boudoir, delicate and frail, and there is a little fat man to take care of. Now we must seize all the time to cultivate, as long as once the qi is drawn like the body, the first three percent of the qi cultivation is still very fast.
Don't worry about this, I have experience, but the aura in this world is too thin, and it may take ten days to step into the qi cultivation layer. If it was in the original cultivation realm, the aura was sufficient, and with her cultivation experience, it would only take a few hours to induce qi into the body.
Although the aura is thin, Qingling still began to concentrate, hold on to one heart, and condense the spirit into three filaments to slowly capture the aura of the outside world. Now it is only several times higher than the average person. However, it was also possible to divide three slender divine senses, and the range that could be extended was also very limited, and at most it could be found within a radius of 100 miles.
This made Qingling feel very uncomfortable. If you want to think that her divine consciousness in her heyday can be divided into hundreds of stout divine consciousness in an instant, it can be extended to the current range of one or two provinces. It is much stronger than the cultivators in the foundation building period. This is also the barrier for Qingling, as a pseudo-five spirit root, to reach the Great Perfection of Qi Cultivation and enter the foundation building period in another two hundred years. You must know that unless you have a great opportunity as a Five Spirit Root, most of them will stay at the seventh or eighth level of Qi cultivation for life and will not be able to advance.
Qingling felt the thinning of the aura in the air around her, and slowly manipulated her divine sense to touch the aura, most of the air was wood aura, water aura, and earth aura. None of these elements are active, they are all static and sluggish in one place. Qingling can absorb water and wood elements, and she tries to use her divine sense to slowly reel them into her body. The speed is a little slower than Qingling's budget.
The current body is relatively weak, and Qingling captures the aura and injects it into the body for more than two hours, and the body is quickly saturated. Qingling sighed, she finally had a lot of better qualifications in this life, but this world was lacking in aura. She could only comfort herself that she was okay and still had aura.
Qingling took the work, and found that the little fat man had already woken up, and was playing with the two twins, usually the twins and the little fat man had no contact, and now they got together to play, and I don't know how these two children played with the little fat man who couldn't speak.
As soon as Qingling woke up, the elder brother of the twins suddenly became restrained and hurriedly said, "Mother." He hurriedly pulled the corner of his sister's clothes with his hand, and the little girl also stood up in a hurry, and her hand was still nervously behind her back.
also followed the brother and shouted: "Mother".
He hurriedly added: "Let's play with my brother, is it okay?" ”
Qingling responded, and also leaned over to look at the little fat man, and the little fat man looked at Qingling, and was more cheerful Ula Ula, not knowing what he was talking about.
Qingling looked at him silly and smiled. Just let the three children continue to play in bed. The twins looked at Qingling again, and Qingling didn't know what to say, so they had to smile at them as a gesture of friendship and let them continue to play with their younger brother. After a while, he continued to play with the little fat man.
Qingling watched them play for a while, and they played well, so she put her mind at ease. I'm going to sort out the package, this is all her net worth at the moment. The third brother secretly gave it when he came to visit before, Qingling secretly saw it, it was two silver tickets of one hundred taels and one fifty taels, and I think the third brother gave her most of the savings over the years. Now thinking of Xie Mingyi, the third brother, Qingling feels like a warm current flowing through her, warm.
Qingling opened the package given by Third Brother Xie again, and the food in it had already been eaten, in addition to the change of clothes of a few people, the most important thing was the medicine in several small porcelain bottles. With these medicines, there is another layer of security along the way. There aren't a lot of things, and they're all in shape in a few clicks.
Qingling picked up the dirty clothes that the little fat man changed out of the prison last time, and suddenly thought that she didn't know how many days the clothes on her body were, and now she saw that they were really dirty enough, and she felt that her body and head were itchy. If I used to be able to do a cleaning technique, now I can only fetch and boil water by myself. Now it's still at the post station, it's still convenient to find water, and it's even more inconvenient to wash up if you go on the road.
Qingling couldn't sit still at this thought. She walked to her sister-in-law's side, planning to discuss it with her sister-in-law. The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law sat relatively closely, but everyone did not speak, and the movements were similar to those with their heads bowed and sitting silently.
Qingling greeted and said, "Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law." I haven't washed up in a short period of time, I think it's much more convenient to fetch water at this post station now, and I want to take this opportunity to clean up everyone. Otherwise, I don't know when I will have a chance on the road. Only then did I realize that everyone's current situation was unbearable.
"Okay, yes, it's been a mess during this time, my brother and sister haven't said that they haven't noticed it yet, let's all cheer up and hurry up and clean up." After the sister-in-law finished speaking, she subconsciously scratched her hair at home, she hadn't been combed for a long time, and her head was really itchy. I can't stand it for a while.
The others also pulled their sleeves, and they all smelled of it. I can't bear it in my heart. Hurriedly stood up and planned to ask the official in the inn. I asked the officials, but I didn't embarrass them, but just told them the location of the well and the house, and asked them to fetch water and burn it by themselves.
Seeing that there was something to do, everyone's spirits were much better and they took action. Several people worked together, and Su Mingzhu also helped to make water for a long time, but when it came to the fire, several people couldn't, but fortunately, Qingling knew some, but the first time I used the fire fold, it took a lot of time, and it took several times to light the fire to boil the water.
When the water is boiled, Qingling and sister-in-law, and the second sister-in-law wash the child in the house first, and Su Mingzhu is responsible for herself.
Qingling's side is more troublesome, and they have more children in this room. I saw that the twins looked at Qingling helplessly and longingly, and when they saw Qingling looking over, they hurriedly lowered their heads.
Qingling thought about it and planned to wash the little fat man first. Only then did I wash Yunxi and Yunyuan. Then he said to the twins: "Yunyuan, Yunxi, you sit here obediently for a while, I'll wash your sister and brother first, and then wash you later."
As soon as Su Yunyuan heard that Qingling would also help them wash, his eyes lit up suddenly, he nodded happily, and sat on the stool obediently without moving.
Compared with the eldest sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law and a few of them, they usually wash and have a girl to serve the master, and they are also distressed and caring for the children, but they rarely take care of them personally, and their movements are much slower.
Qingling, a person is used to life, and his life ability is still good. It's a bit uncomfortable to wash a child as young as Little Fat Man at the beginning, but slowly it will get better, and Qingling will be much faster, and a small white bun will be washed. Qingling cleaned up the little fat man and put him on the bed. The little fat man took a bath and was comfortable, Qingling put him on the bed, and he also happily gnawed his feet and played, not crying or making trouble.
After changing the water, Qingling quickly washed Mingxi and Mingyuan one by one. After changing into clean clothes, they hugged the little bun to the side and let them watch the little fat man play on the bed. The three children looked at me and chatted a word, anyway, Qingling couldn't understand.
After Qingling and the adults also washed up, Su Jingyun and a few of the other adults came back.
Only then did I know that the old lady's affairs were done, and I asked the eldest brother of the second sister-in-law's family to help, but I didn't even do a simple funeral. The brothers said this in a low voice, choked in frustration and frustration.
The atmosphere was silent, and finally the sister-in-law persuaded her, "Now this time can only be like this, at least I have fulfilled the old lady's last wish and buried her and the old lady together, and the old lady is at ease when she leaves." ”
Several women were also busy whispering comforting their husbands. Qingling comforted Su Jingyun in a dry whisper.
Su Jinglan and Su Jingyun tried to calm down their emotions and asked them and their children about the situation. Everyone came back to their senses and began to boil water again, intending to clean up for their men.
But this time, there is no need for a few of them to fetch water, a few men have more strength, and they don't wait for the essentials at the beginning, and they beat the water a few times.
By the time everyone has cleaned up, there is no strength to speak, there have been too many things that have happened recently. And they all rested.
Qingling was lying on the bed, and on the right were several children who had fallen asleep. Next to Su Jingyun on the left. When the original owner was there, the two didn't have much to talk about, and the two respected each other like guests.
Now that she is her, she actually feels a little fresh, she has never considered getting married. Now I have not only a husband, but also a child. Qingling doesn't like him much, but she thinks that such a husband is a little smaller and weaker. It's better to get along like the same as before, and it's not bad to get along like this now. When it's not appropriate, it's still necessary to take care of it.
Compared with Qingling's relaxation, Su Jingyun's mood was more complicated, heavy and uncomfortable. Today, I went to run errands with my eldest brother and them, and those who used to come over when they saw them now saw that they were going to hide far away, and some of the hateful ones would taunt a few words and fall into the well.
Those friends who drank with him and talked about things, claiming to be like-minded. is also dodging, good to see each other, but also forced by the pressure of the family and elders, can only send some silver taels with him, but the elders who rushed to say some roundabout words and drove away, some of them are not directly seen, afraid of getting into trouble, directly let him go.
finally said a lot of good things, lost a smile, and asked the second sister-in-law's mother-in-law to help and get things done. I was mentally prepared for these prospects, but I was still sad and aggrieved.
Looking at the second sister-in-law's mother-in-law's smiling faces, who used to see their affectionate smiles, and now their impatience, as well as the boredom that flashed in their eyes, Su Jingyun felt very uncomfortable in her heart, although she also knew that it was inevitable, but she deeply felt the sadness of things being wrong.
