After being reborn, I took my childhood sweetheart to cultivate immortality.

Although Xu Qingman's blunt words were hurtful, Yu Yuxuan had no choice but to lower her head, thinking about the increasingly difficult life at home.

"Sister-in-law, you're joking. I'm Jinchen's older sister, Yu Yuxuan. Don't you remember me?"

Xu Qingman said with disgust, "My husband doesn't have a sister. I've already told him not to randomly claim relatives, don't you understand?"

"No, you have to help me, I really have no other choice. My parents have both left with Jinxuan, and I really can't find anyone to help me. Please, please, take your time."

Seeing that Xu Qingman was about to close the door, Yu Yuxuan disregarded everything else and desperately blocked the doorway with her body.

"Get lost! My name is not something any Tom, Dick, or Harry can call. If you do it again, I'll make sure your soul is scattered to the winds."

The slightest hint of the cultivator's aura was enough to frighten Yu Yuxuan into standing there, too terrified to move.

After the door closed, she took a deep breath and patted her pounding heart.

How could I have been so foolish? In my haste, I forgot that the Xu family members were cultivators. These people were not people an ordinary old woman like me could afford to offend; a slight misstep could cost me my life.

Sigh! Forget it, I'll go back and think of another way. Even my own parents and younger brother don't care about me, how could anyone else be so kind?

When Yu Jinchen saw Xu Qingman enter with a frown, he asked, "Wife, who came looking for you just now?"

"It's Yu Yuxuan from the Yu family. She said she's encountered some difficulties and wants to ask me for help."

Yu Jinchen said with some disgust, "Ignore her, we have nothing to do with her family anymore."

"Hmm, I ignored her, but Yu Yuxuan seems to have changed a lot. She's not as domineering as before."

"Okay, let's talk about something else. Mom and Dad said they want to share some of the snacks we brought with the neighbors, and they asked us what would be suitable for us to take."

"This must be the place with the lowest spiritual energy. Most of these neighbors are ordinary people, and they can't handle too much spiritual energy. Never mind, I'll go find my mother."

---------

The next morning, in front of the Xu family's old house in Xujia Village, Shanggang Town.

"Oh dear! This house is no good if no one lives in it, it's almost completely collapsed."

As Mr. Xu Maoye looked at the old house that was about to collapse, he reminisced about his childhood when he lived there and his childhood playmates.

An aged voice sounded behind him, "Maoye, is that Maoye?"

"Who are you? You're Holly, right? How come you..."

Looking at the white-haired old man in front of him, leaning on a cane and standing there somewhat unsteadily, Xu Maoye could hardly recognize him.

"Haha, yes, I'm Dongqing, getting old. Maoye, you seem to be getting younger and younger. If you didn't look the same as when you were young, I wouldn't recognize you."

Grandpa Xu Dongqing was very happy. He never expected that he would be able to see his good brother again before he died.

He thought he would never hear from Maoye again after hearing that his granddaughter had taken him away to cultivate immortality more than 20 years ago.

Xu Maoye said with a smile, "Dongqing, it's so good to see you again. You must be over ninety years old this year, right?"

“Yes, they are ninety-two years old. These are all your children, right? Your house has collapsed and you can’t stay here. Come on, come back to my house with me for a while.”

"Alright, let's go sit for a while." Xu Maoye didn't stand on ceremony and prepared to go over and see how his old brother was doing.

The group walked for less than two minutes before being led by Grandpa Xu Dongqing to a luxurious three-story villa.

"Hey, Dongqing, you're doing pretty well, you even live in a villa."

"Hehe, this was built by my eldest grandson. Now the kid has become successful. He was found to have some kind of spiritual root and went to a cultivation sect to cultivate immortality. This house was built by him when he came back a few years ago."

When Xu Maoye learned that his old friend's grandson was also a cultivator, the gift he received included a Longevity Fruit that could extend one's lifespan by twenty years, as well as several low-grade pills.

The two old men became increasingly excited as they talked about their children. They praised each other's kids, and before they knew it, more than an hour had passed.

When it was lunchtime, the family stayed for a sumptuous lunch at the strong invitation of Mr. Xu Dongqing and his son and daughter-in-law.

Although they were not cultivators themselves, they had gained some knowledge since their child entered the immortal sect.

Since such a good thing has been given to my family, I definitely have to treat them to a sumptuous meal.

If Xu Maoye hadn't stopped him, Xu Dongqing's son would have almost slaughtered their own fat pig to entertain guests.

It was only after the old lady mentioned inviting his sister's family to her home that afternoon that the old man reluctantly said goodbye to his old friend and returned to the city with his children.

On the way, the two old people were sullen. Only after Xu Jingzai asked them did Xu Maoye answer, "Sigh, after the old house collapsed, our family didn't even have a place to stay in the village."

Xu Jingheng was both amused and exasperated. "I thought it was something serious, but it's nothing. It's not like we're short of money; we just need to build a house."

Xu Qinghe also smiled and advised, "Grandfather, Grandmother, let's build a good one this time, a big manor, so that others will envy our family."

Xu Maoye chuckled and scolded, "You child, what are you building? You just squander your money. A house like your Grandpa Dongqing's is enough. Anyway, we're not going to live here permanently."

As soon as Xu Maoye finished speaking, everyone in the family covered their mouths and chuckled. The old man felt ashamed that his family didn't have a nice house in the village.

At this time, the family was unaware that a large family was anxiously waiting for them at their doorstep.

"Mom, where did Uncle and the others go? Why haven't they come back yet?"

"How would I know? Your uncle clearly told us to come in the afternoon, but you insisted on coming so early."

"I was just thinking of asking my uncle to take a look and see if the children really don't have that kind of spiritual root."

"Mother, please don't blame my eldest brother and sister-in-law. They were just thinking of the children."

"Great-Grandma, take a look, isn't that Uncle's family?"

Xu Dongmei was massaging her legs, which were aching from standing for so long, when she heard her great-granddaughter's voice and looked up.

"Oh my, really."

"Brother, sister-in-law, are you back?"

Xu Dongmei greeted her brother and sister-in-law with a smile, and then immediately instructed her children, "Quickly call for help."

After everyone had greeted their respective relatives, Xu Meifen had already opened the door and let Xu Qingman's aunt and her family in.

"Auntie, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Wait a moment, I'll call and order a meal from the restaurant."

Judging from the situation, her aunt's family must have arrived long ago. Xu Qingman didn't want her mother to cook, so she decided to call some people back from outside.

Xu Dongmei smiled and nodded, "Oh, okay, we really haven't eaten yet. Is this a slow meal? You're still so beautiful after all these years."

The old man looked around and saw that his sister's family was all there, but he didn't see Xu Dongmei's husband. So he asked, "Dongmei, why didn't we see Liao Donggen?"

Xu Dongmei replied with distress, "Brother, the child's father was murdered a long time ago."

Xu Maoye asked with a strange expression, "What's going on?"
