"Let's go, let's go down the mountain." Shen Yunxi was still led by Lan Yu, while Shen Ruoyu and the others were still riding the Swift Snow Wolf.

However, the previous laughter and chatter were absent along the way, and Shen Ruoyu was sullen, occasionally stealing glances at Shen Yunxi, seemingly still bothered by the fright he had just experienced.

"What's wrong? Is Yu Bao still afraid of that person?" Shen Yunxi asked softly.

Shen Ruoyu nodded and muttered softly, "Mommy, that uncle was so fierce, like an ice block."

“Brother, how can a real man be so…so…” Shen Ruoning couldn’t find the right words to describe her brother’s ‘lack of ambition’.

"Haha, Yu Bao, don't be afraid. When we get to Qingshui Town, Mommy will take you to eat something delicious, okay?"

Upon hearing about the delicious food, Shen Ruoyu's eyes immediately lit up, and she nodded repeatedly: "Great! I want candied hawthorn! And I want osmanthus cake!"

"As expected of a foodie brother!" Shen Ruoning's lips curled up slightly, unable to hide her good mood.

"Alright, it's getting late, let's hurry on our way," Shen Yunxi said with a faint smile.

The mother and her two children soon arrived at Qingshui Town.

The hustle and bustle of Qingshui Town stands in stark contrast to the tranquil mountains and forests.

The sounds of hawking, shouting, and children playing blended into a noisy symphony, assaulting Shen Yunxi's eardrums.

She led Shen Ruoyu by the hand, followed by Shen Ruoning, who remained calm as she rode the Swift Snow Wolf, weaving through the crowded streets.

Shen Ruoyu's eyes scanned the street stalls like radar. When he saw the dazzling array of candied hawthorns, brightly colored rattles, and uniquely shaped clay figurines, he excitedly tugged at Shen Yunxi's sleeve, "Mommy, I want that! And that too!"

Shen Yunxi smiled helplessly. This child is such a little glutton.

She took out a few copper coins, bought a string of candied hawthorns, and handed it to Shen Ruoyu, saying, "Eat slowly, don't choke."

Shen Ruoyu took the candied hawthorn, her face immediately lighting up with a smile, and said indistinctly, "Thank you, Mother!"

Then he started munching away, the syrup sticking to his little face, making him look even cuter.

Even the usually composed Shen Ruoning was drawn to an exquisite wooden doll on the street. The doll was so lifelike, with gorgeous clothes and exquisite features, it looked almost real. Shen Yunxi noticed her daughter's gaze and went over to ask about the price.

The stall owner was a shrewd middle-aged man. Seeing Shen Yunxi's extraordinary attire, he deliberately raised the price: "Madam, this is carved from the finest wood. I carved it myself, and it's incredibly exquisite. Look at the workmanship and the expression on her face. It's definitely worth the price!"

Having spent many years in the cultivation world in her previous life, Shen Yunxi had seen all sorts of people and was naturally not fooled by this petty trick. She smiled faintly, "Boss, your doll is nice, but it doesn't have to be so expensive. How about this, I'll give you a fair price, and if you agree, I'll buy it."

After some haggling, Shen Yunxi bought the wooden doll at a reasonable price and handed it to Shen Ruoning.

Shen Ruoning took the doll, a hint of joy flashing in her eyes, and softly said, "Thank you, Mother."

After purchasing daily necessities and some cultivation resources, Shen Yunxi found Bai Ruochen, who was waiting for them at the Laifu Inn, and asked him to take the two children to eat, while she…
