After rebirth, the eldest sister voluntarily abdicated and gave way to the wise.

When she arrived at the gate of Xu Youan's courtyard, he was already waiting there.

"Junior brother, why is your yard so empty?" As soon as she entered the door, she saw nothing except the little golden peach's exaggeratedly large nest.

The eldest brother's courtyard is filled with strange objects, some complete and some half-complete. She has not been to the second brother's courtyard yet, but she heard from the third sister that there are many weapons made by the second brother himself. The third sister's courtyard is full of various spiritual plants, which is very beautiful. The fourth brother has not returned yet, so she doesn't know what it looks like inside, but she thinks it should not be like Xu Youan's here, bare and with nothing.

Xu Youan saw that Senior Sister had indeed noticed his yard, pursed his lips, and said, "I'm still young and don't know how to arrange the yard, so I thought I'd think about it later. Senior Sister, do you have any good ideas?"

"Ah? This..."

This really made her feel troubled. In her previous life, she had practiced both cultivation and swordsmanship. The yard was as cold as the ice and snow on the sword edge, not even as cold as here.

"Why don't I send a message to Shui Lian'er and Qin Beiyao and ask them for advice?" She felt that this was more reliable.

Xu Youan's originally bright eyes suddenly dimmed.

He looked at her expectantly, his voice soft and gentle: "But Senior Sister, I just want you to help me."

Jiang Liqian was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

It seems that her charm is still as strong as before, and she is still trusted by her junior classmates.

"Okay then, but let me make it clear first, I... I'm actually not particularly good at this." This is probably one of the few things she is not very good at.

Xu Youan didn't care about these things. He immediately prepared pen, ink, paper and inkstone, brought out the pastries specially made for her, and then sat next to her holding Xiao Jintao.

The pastry is soft and warm. When you bite into it, it is neither sweet nor greasy, and has the fragrance of osmanthus.

She thought it was delicious, so she gave a piece to Xu Youan, Xiao Jintao and the dog.

At first, Little Golden Peach disdained to taste the grains that the monk ate. Not only did they contain impurities, but they also delayed his cultivation. But when the tip of its tongue touched the pastries, it suddenly felt that eating some impurities was no big deal. It was willing to eat them, and eat as much as it could!

Damn it, that bad boy. Not only did he not cook such delicious food for it, he also forced it to eat the disgusting demon pill core every day. Its fur became smooth and shiny, but its face was almost twisted into a dough stick.

Wagging its tail, it became bolder and suddenly jumped into Jiang Liqian's arms, rubbing its head against her chin, telling her that it still wanted to eat!

Jiang Liqian didn't misunderstand its meaning this time. Seeing that it actually liked eating pastries so much, she stuffed another piece into its mouth.

Xu Youan's face darkened as he glared at it secretly.

Little Golden Peach relied on its real owner being here and pretended not to see it.

Jiang Liqian was naturally oblivious to their little antics. Picking up a pen and paper, she paused and asked, "Junior brother, what do you like to do on a daily basis? Do you have any favorite flowers, plants, or colorful gemstones?"

Xu Youan thought about it, took out a few books about magic circles from the house and put them on the table.

"I don't have a particular favorite, flowers, plants, jewelry, or antiques, but I do have a favorite color, and I love purple."

Jiang Liqian was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that when she first met Xu Youan, he seemed to be wearing a purple robe.

This color is quite similar to the thunder spiritual power she uses.

"Then let's use purple as the main color and use the formation plate as a rockery and flowing water decoration in the yard. When we build our foundation in the future, we can set up the formation we like in our own yard."

As Jiang Liqian spoke, she began to write down the materials needed to decorate the yard. The thing that Zhenfeng had the most of was discarded formation plates. As for purple, she could ask the third senior sister for some purple spirit grass seeds to plant in the flower fields. Since the junior brother liked formations, she had to leave an empty space in the yard for him to experiment and store formation plates.

She leaned over the stone table, making notes and writing, and she put all the energy she had put into managing the Qiankun Sect in her previous life, determined to demonstrate her abilities as a junior sister.

Xu Youan sat beside her and watched her, adding some tea and cakes from time to time, or teasing Xiao Jintao. The golden sunlight spread over the two of them, as if covered with a layer of golden gauze, hazy and dreamy, yet peaceful and beautiful.

Time slipped away quietly from the two people's fingertips, and when the sun set in the west, the two had already decided on the final arrangement plan.

Jiang Liqian promised that after the rankings of the quiz were released tomorrow, she would come to help him decorate the yard every day after school, and she would also call Shui Lian'er and Qin Beiyao along, as there was strength in numbers.

This time Xu Youan did not object.

"Sister, after everything is decorated, do you think this place looks like a home we decorated ourselves?"

Jiang Liqian stood there in a daze for a moment.

Something seemed to have transcended the eternal cycle of reincarnation and shot into her sea of ​​consciousness.

[Senior Sister, look here, does it look like our home? ]

[Senior Sister, you have a home, you have a home, and I am here, I am here...]

[Don't leave me, Senior Sister, I beg you, can you hold on a little longer? ]

[Let’s go home, let’s go home, Senior Sister…]

Suddenly, everything went dark before her eyes and she lost consciousness.

“Senior Sister——!”

-

"You should know that being too close to her is not good for her."

"I know, I just didn't expect..."

"Naivety and stupidity, I thought, were impossible for you to commit."

"...She's so lonely, I just want to spend more time with her..."

"She's better off without you."

Endless silence lingered in the darkness, with the fragrance of sandalwood lingering in the air. Before the warm spring breeze could reach the windowsill, it was driven away by the sudden cold wind.

In the deep darkness, a hoarse voice was heard after a long time.

"I see."

The voice warned one last time.

"Xu Youan, being greedy will not end well.

"To you, to her, both."

-

A splitting headache.

It was as if his sea of ​​consciousness was severely attacked by a powerful being in the Nascent Soul stage.

When she opened her eyes, Jiang Liqian still felt dizzy and the whole world was spinning in front of her.

It took her a long time to drink the glass of water handed to her by her third senior sister.

Her eyes subconsciously swept across the room, and she wondered: "Where is my junior brother?"

Wasn't she in Xu Youan's yard? Why did she suddenly return to her own room?

Also, why did her head hurt so much?

What happened?

A series of doubts flashed through her mind, but she couldn't grasp the most crucial one.

"Junior brother told Master that he would be in seclusion for three years. During these three years, he would not see anyone except Master."

She was stunned: "What?!"

This is impossible!

They were clearly discussing how to decorate the courtyard just now!
