“Elder Brother and Little Jiu are not far behind me! As soon as I arrived in the city I ran back as quickly as I could. Mother, I missed you so much. I was almost eaten by a beast, I almost didn’t make it back to see you.” She threw herself into her mother’s arms and rubbed against her like a kitten.
Xie Yan on the other side was relieved when he saw that his daughter had returned. His heart lifted when he heard that she had been in danger, but when he saw that she was uninjured, he relaxed once again.
“It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back.” He patted his daughter’s head. The big rock that was hanging over him over the past few days could finally be put down.
When the beautiful woman heard that her son and Feng Jiu were well, she burst into a smile: “That’s right, it’s good that you’re back.” She would ask her more later on.
Not long after, Feng Jiu and Xie Yutang also returned, but Old Patriarch Guo and Guo Xinning didn’t come with them. According to the words of Old Patriarch Guo, as it was short notice, they would reside at the Guo Family’s small courtyard and visit them another time.
Xie Yutang didn’t try to retain them, and went home with Feng Jiu instead. After all, he was only a young person, even though he had a few days’ of training and experience outside, the moment he arrived home, he grinned happily and his steps sped up a little. In the end, he ran inside.
“Mother, Mother, I’m back!”
When she heard her son’s voice and saw him running inside quickly, Xie Yan said with some distaste: “The children only call for their Mother when they return home, am I really such a failure as a Father? Don’t you miss me after being away from home for so many days?”
Xie Shisi smiled and held his hand: “Father, I missed you. Little Shi missed you. I even brought gifts for all of you!”
Upon hearing this, Xie Yan laughed: “It’s fine, at least Father didn’t dote on you in vain, Little Shi.”
The family was finally reunited. When they saw their two children had returned home safely, and Feng Jiu walking behind them slowly, even if they didn’t say anything, the husband and wife knew that it was because of Feng Jiu that their two children were able to return safely.
“Master, Madam.” Feng Jiu bowed respectfully.
“Little Jiu, thank you for bringing my two children home back.” The beautiful woman said and held Feng Jiu’s hand gratefully.
Feng Jiu smiled and didn’t say much, she just said: “I will go back to my courtyard to wash and change first.”
“That’s fine, you go back and have a good rest.” The beautiful woman said. After she watched Feng Jiu turn and leave, the couple went inside with their children and asked them what had happened in the past few days…
After they had heard the full story, the couple went to thank Feng Jiu in person that night. Although they knew that Feng Jiu was no ordinary person, they hadn’t expected her to be so complicated.
Feng Jiu had forgotten about the matter quite quickly as the appointment with the Treasure Exchange Building was nearing. Therefore, the next day, she left and went to the Treasure Exchange Building.
A top-quality medicine pill had attracted many contenders from several nearby cities. On this day, everyone had gone to the Treasure Exchange Building early and waited. Although they knew that the Master of the pill would also attend, they hadn’t expected that they wouldn’t even get to see that person’s face.
In a wing-room of the Treasure Exchange Building, documents of records were placed in front of Feng Jiu, as well as the list of items that were easily exchanged…
