When I became a Jade-faced Fox
Chapter 41: Relatives and Friends Gathering
Ever since returning from Five Finger Mountain, Yu'er has been in seclusion without stopping, hoping to refine the golden elixir as soon as possible.
Before she went into seclusion, she specifically told Ao Lan to come to her cave when he had time. If he received a sound transmission note from her parents, she would ask them to return to their tribe next spring, and she would go back to reunite with them.
But what he didn't expect was that the fox's plans were not as good as God's. During the retreat and cultivation, the days passed quickly. When Yu'er opened her eyes again, she had reached the middle stage of the Heavenly Fairyland, but that day was already the beginning of summer of the second year.
"It's over, it's over, they've stood me up!" Yu'er jumped around on the ground as if her feet were on fire.
"What should I do?" Yu'er thought for a moment, "I have to go back anyway."
Now that you have made the decision, you must hurry and do it without any delay.
As soon as Yu'er left the cave, Ao Lan stopped her, "Yu'er, Yu'er, go home quickly. Your parents are sending notes to urge you. If you don't come out, I'll knock on the door."
"My parents are still in the clan land, that's great!" Yu'er was extremely happy to hear that.
"Okay Ao Lan, I'll go back first. Wait for my news. I'll take my family to Chang'an. Don't you want to see your uncle? When we leave and come back, you can also go to Chang'an and wait for me. I'll go with you, okay?"
"Okay, okay! I'll wait for your sound transmission note." Ao Lan understood that she was in a hurry to urge Yu'er to go home, and she had this intention, but Yu'er took the initiative to bring it up before she said it, which made her feel embarrassed.
"Remember to call Senior Brother Zhu!" Yu'er had already flown far away, but her voice still came over.
"I'll ask for you." Ao Lan stepped forward a few steps and waved goodbye vigorously.
Yu'er was eager to return home, and as her magic power had improved, she rushed back in one day. When she returned, it was just dawn in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
It must have rained yesterday. There are puddles on the bluestone slabs. The flowers seem a little timid and are about to open their buds quietly. The surrounding leaves are lush green, swaying slightly in the wind, with a layer of halo. Birds and insects can be heard faintly.
Beautiful! Really beautiful! Yuer can't remember the last time she observed these. Now she just feels comfortable!
Perhaps because she was homesick, Yu'er hesitated at the door for a moment, then conjured up a water mirror, tidied herself up carefully, straightened her chest and raised her head, and then took a step forward.
Yu'er thought that the one who was so anxious was her mother, but she didn't expect it was her cousin Hongrui.
"You're finally back." Hong Rui sat at the door and looked into the distance. Originally he just took a normal look without any hope, but he ended up seeing a familiar face.
"He's taller, more promising, and more handsome." Hong Rui didn't know why he was dazzled by the wind and his mood was up and down.
Yu'er sensed Hongrui's emotions, "Cousin, brother, don't be like this."
"Oh, it's been such a long time since I last saw you. You were only this tall last time, and you're this tall now. If I didn't see your face, I wouldn't have recognized you." Hong Rui gestured with his hands. Time flies so fast. The little kid back then has now grown into an adult who can carry the world on his own.
"Oh, Mingming, you brought me medicine once." Yu'er put her arm around Hongrui's arm and acted coquettishly.
"That time, you almost scared your family to death!" Hong Rui took Yu'er into the house.
"Dad, Mom, aunt, uncle, look who's back!" Hong Rui spoke very loudly. Yu'er felt her ears hurt and reached out to rub them.
As soon as they reached the door, the four adults who were sitting opposite each other drinking tea stood up and looked at Yu'er's little head popping out from behind Hongrui.
"Dad, Mom, Uncle and Aunt." Yu'er smiled.
"Come here quickly, let me take a look." Madam Hongshao lifted Yu'er's arm and looked her up and down. She even asked Yu'er to turn around in a circle before she held her in her arms. "This is my little fox cub."
These words were so familiar that Yu'er felt her eyes sore. At this moment, she felt a big hand rubbing her head and looked up to her side.
"father!"
"Oh!" The Fox King agreed with a smile.
"Sit down and talk." My uncle called out quickly.
"That's right, Yu'er, you can tell from the looks of it that you came in a hurry. Let the child sit down quickly and we'll talk further." The eldest aunt followed closely behind.
"Once Yu'er comes back, no one will see me." Hong Rui pouted as if trying to win favor.
"You are hundreds of years older than her, and you want to be jealous?" The aunt threw a teacup to him, "Hurry up and pour a cup of tea for Yu'er."
"I knew that my aunt loves me." Yu'er sat down next to her parents and looked at Hongrui with a proud look on her face.
"Okay, I'll go to work. It's my bad position." Hong Rui looked resentful, but the corners of his mouth were curled upwards.
Yu'er briefly and lightly told what had happened to her over the years, and then began to ask what her parents and uncle and aunt were doing. She had passed by the clan land several times and came back to visit her relatives, but had never seen them.
Yu'er only spoke a few words, reporting good news but not bad news. The adults knew that her life was not easy, she was just complaining.
The adult would not reveal everything he had done. He just said that he had found a job for Queen Taishan, but unlike Yu'er, he was just a non-staff member, working for the Queen.
Yu'er was still surprised. After all, for the adults in her family, they had to give up a lot of things before they could do this.
"Don't think too much. You can't work hard while we just wait for the ready-made food." The Fox King looked at his little fox cub's frowned brow and knocked her on the head.
"What about Jilei Mountain? You don't want it anymore? What if someone else takes it?"
"Things outside of one's body, you cannot bring them with you when you are born and you cannot take them with you when you die. How can they be more important than life and the joy of being together with your family?"
Yu'er knew this, but she felt bad for her parents who had lived there for many years. They would not feel good if they left. So she just said, "I grew up there, so I can't keep talking about it. My spiritual fruit trees should be growing well now."
"That's true."
"Speaking of which, our family is lucky. Our children have all awakened their spirits early and can practice cultivation. But listen to other families..." The aunt also felt it was difficult to say, "If the spiritual fruit trees planted by Yu'er are really good, why don't we propose to the ancestor to designate Jilei Mountain as our base."
"What you mean is that if we send people to garrison there, we can not only protect a lot of spiritual fruits, but also protect Jilei Mountain." The uncle took over the conversation.
My aunt felt a little embarrassed and said, "Yes, that's it. I'm afraid I'm a little sorry for you."
"What are you talking about, sister-in-law? This is the best of both worlds." Mrs. Hongshao waved her hand indifferently.
"That's right!" The Fox King also responded.
"Where's Yu'er?"
"I don't mind either, aunt." Yu'er of course followed her parents, but she didn't understand why her aunt was so concerned about this matter.
"Okay, then let Yu'er take a rest and report the good news to the ancestor tomorrow." The uncle made the decision.
"Well, after visiting the old ancestor, can you accompany me to Chang'an? I will settle there, and you can come to see me when you are free. The errands for the queen..."
Yu Er didn't finish her words, "Don't worry, we have time. We have plenty of vacation time accumulated over the years."
"Well, it couldn't be better!"
