Guan Xilin nodded in response, “I know, I need to improve my strength.”
“By the way, Father, Mother, could you help Big Brother with the wedding?” She looked at her parents, who were seated nearby.
“Sure, we’ll take care of it.” They nodded and asked with a smile, “What about you and Mo Ze? When are you going to get married?”
Feng Jiu grinned as she replied, “We are in no rush; we will take our time.”
They talked in the hall for a while before asking Feng Jiu to go back to rest. Back in the yard, she smiled as she observed that nothing had changed. “It’s been a long time, but nothing has changed here.”
“The furnishings have not been changed, everything is arranged in your previous style. The courtyard is also cleaned daily, so you can stay at any time.” Feng Xiao, who was following her, walked with his hands clasped behind his back. “It’s rare for you to return home; let’s stay a few days longer this time!”
Feng Jiu replied, “Alright,” went into the room, looked around, and then came back out. “Father, is everything fine here?”
“Don’t worry about us, we’re fine here. You can rest assured.”
He smiled and said, “We don’t have a state system where we live, and freedom is all around us. Other empires do not dare to act arrogantly toward our people. We always live in peace. Furthermore, even though there is no imperial state system, the people around us or anywhere else do not dare to target us.”
“That’s good,” she said, nodding her head.
“When you come back this time, aren’t you going to let everyone know?” He asked.
“Mm, I didn’t tell anyone I’m back, so those people won’t come and cause trouble.”
“I see. I’ll take care of it.” As he said this, he motioned for her to sit down and said with a smile, “Your mother went to the kitchen to cook some food for you. Take a seat for now, and after you’re done eating, just take some time to relax.”
“Great,” she said, smiling, “I’ll let Old White and them all out. It’s been a while since you’ve seen them.” She flicked her sleeves and let them all out to frolic in the courtyard.
“Hey? Is there now one more white tiger? “Feng Xiao was surprised to see the little white tiger rubbing against her daughter’s feet.
“Mm-hmm. I took it.” She smiled. “Additionally, there is a silver wolf without a contract that should follow Mo Ze here.”
There’s no reason to be afraid of a fight with your small group. “He smiled warmly and reached out to stroke the little white tiger’s head.
When the little white tiger realised it was the master’s father, the little white tiger meekly bowed its head and squinted with contentment while being petted.
Not long after, Shangguan Wanrou walked in. She set down the tray, removed the bowl from the tray, and set it in front of Feng Jiu. “Little Jiu, I’ve made you some food. Come and taste it.”
Feng Jiu lifted the lid and saw the steaming bowl of noodles piled high with toppings. When she smelled the aroma, she couldn’t help but smile and say, “Thank you, Mother.”
“Eat while it’s hot!” ” Shangguan Wanrou sat beside her and handed her the chopsticks, a gentle look on her face as she watched her daughter’s contented expression.
This child was so happy with just a bowl of noodles. Her heart ached at the thought that she was away from home and no one would cook such trivial things for her.
What a challenge it must have been for this child to be alone outside without a family member!
