In the room, Tian Zhu was smoking a pipe, the spicy smell filled the entire room. Tian Zhuang was also there. Although the two didn't speak, the expression on their faces didn't show any sadness.
Tian Niu sat beside the table and carried Little Crane Grass to the stool next to him. Tian Niu looked at Tian Zhu and said, "Uncle Zhu, you have to enlighten your sister-in-law and aunt. Little Crane Grass is just going to school. Right, our family's Xiao Yu is younger than Little Crane Grass by a year. How about our two families get married?
What do you think? "When Tian Zhu heard Tian Niu's words, he couldn't help but chuckle," Kid, I'll talk to your aunt. She will understand. This isn't just for Bao 'er, it's also for the entire village. As for the marriage, Daniu, it's not that Uncle wants to nag you, but I'm willing. But can that work? If Bao 'er really goes to school in the future, it would take ten to twenty years. He can wait, but can Xiao Yu? If she's twenty or thirty years old and still hasn't married, how can she live? Don't talk nonsense in the future. "
Tian Niu also sighed. He knew that Tian Zhu was right. Plant Masters were completely different from ordinary people. Even for those who didn't become Plant Masters, because of their cultivation, their lifespan would be greatly increased. But at the same time, the things they need to learn would also be greatly increased. And in the process of learning, they almost didn't get married. So if Little Crane Grass really becomes a Plant Master, then Tian Yu really wouldn't be able to marry Little Crane Grass. Just like what Tian Zhu said, Little Crane Grass can wait, but Tian Yu can't.
In the Soul World, women generally get married at the age of sixteen. In a place like Tree Root Village, girls generally get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen. Even in a big city, a woman who hasn't married at the age of eighteen would be considered a big girl. Not to mention, if she didn't get married at the age of twenty or thirty, she would be drowned in people's spittle.
Tian Zhu looked at Tian Niu and said, "Da Niu, I'll leave Bao 'er to you. The hope of the village is also in your hands. You must discipline Bao' er well. If he doesn't learn well, then beat him and scold him. You must not be soft-hearted. If he goes astray, then our village's hope will be gone.
Tian Niu smiled and said, "Uncle Zhu Zi, I can see that Bao 'er is very sensible. I don't need to worry about her. You can rest assured that I will teach Bao' er well."
Tian Zhu nodded and sighed. He turned his head and glanced at Little Crane Grass who was looking at him with a confused expression. He reached out his hand and gently stroked Little Crane Grass's hair. He smiled and said, "Bao 'er, from today onwards, can you follow your Uncle Daniu to his house? There will be good food and fun things to do every day. Also, Little Sister Xiaoyu will play with you, okay? "
Little Crane Grass looked at Tian Zhu in confusion and asked, "Grandpa is going too? Is Grandma going too? What about Mom and Dad? "
Tian Zhu smiled bitterly and said, "Bao 'er, Grandpa and Grandma won't be going. Your parents won't be going either. We'll be staying at home to farm. Only Bao' er and your Uncle Daniu will be going, okay?"
Little Crane Grass understood and immediately cried out, "I'm not Grandpa. I don't want to go to Uncle Daniu's house. I want to stay at home and accompany Grandpa and Grandma, as well as Mom and Dad." Then she began to cry.
Seeing Little Crane Grass crying, Tian Zhu's eyes also became moist. He gently stroked Little Crane Grass's head and said, "Bao 'er, be good and listen to me. You'll go with Uncle Daniu to his house to learn some skills. Once you learn some skills, you can go home. At that time, you'll be able to let everyone in the village live a good life. Everyone in the village will be able to eat meat and wear new clothes during the Earthly New Year."
Little Crane Grass stopped crying and looked at his grandpa in a daze. He looked at his grandpa and said, "Grandpa, if I learn some skills, will I be able to let the grandpas, grandmas, and uncles in the village eat meat and wear new clothes? Then what about you, Grandpa? Can you also eat meat and wear new clothes every day? What about Grandma? What about Mom and Dad? "
Tian Zhu choked with sobs as he said, "You can, you can. As long as Bao 'er learns some skills, everyone in the village will be able to eat meat and wear new clothes."
Little Crane Grass rubbed his face hard until it turned red. He nodded and said, "Then Grandpa, I'll go with Uncle Daniu. I want to learn some skills. I want to let the grandpas, grandmas, and uncles in the village eat meat every day. During the new year, they will have new clothes to wear and wine to drink."
Hearing Little Crane Grass's words, Tian Niu's eyes also turned red. He gently stroked Little Crane Grass's head and muttered, "My good Bao 'er, what a sensible child. The Heavens are really blessing my Tree Root Village."
Tian Zhuang's eyes were also red as he looked at his son. However, he still had a smile on his face. For him to have such a sensible child, Tian Zhuang felt very proud.
At this time, Tian Zhuang's mother and Cuifen also came out of the house with dishes. Their eyes were red, but they didn't shed any tears.
When it was time to eat, everyone gave Little Crane Grass some food. Little Crane Grass looked at his bowl and saw a pile of delicious food. However, he didn't feel as tasty as he usually does.
After eating, Tian Niu stood up and said to Tian Zhu, "Uncle Zhu, I still have a lot of things to do in the city. I'll be going back tomorrow. You guys have a good time with Bao 'er, I'll be leaving." Then he turned around and left. Tian Zhu and Tian Zhuang sent him to the door before returning to the house.
Once he returned to the house, Tian Zhu saw that Cuifen had already taken out a large bag of clothes from the house. She was currently gesturing at Little Crane Grass' body. She did not cry, but her eyes were filled with tears.
On this day, the atmosphere of the Tian Family was very depressing. Everyone was surrounding Little Crane Grass. Little Crane Grass also felt the change in the atmosphere, but he didn't cry. This was because he saw his grandfather secretly crying, his grandmother secretly crying, and his parents secretly crying. He was very sad, but he knew that his grandfather, grandmother, and parents were even sadder. Therefore, he didn't cry.
Cuifen hugged Little Crane Grass the entire night and didn't sleep a wink. When she woke up in the morning, she made Little Crane Grass' favorite food and dressed him in the best and newest clothes. Then, she sat at the side and watched Little Crane Grass finish all the food. She couldn't control the tears in her eyes and finally, they flowed out.
Little Crane Grass saw his mother crying, but he didn't cry. Instead, he ran to his mother's side and held her hand as he said, "Mother, don't cry. Bao 'er will go and learn. When Bao' er learns, Bao 'er will make meat for mother every day. I'll let mother wear new clothes every day."
Cuifen couldn't bear it anymore. She hugged Little Crane Grass as her tears kept flowing. Tian Zhu kept smoking while Tian Zhuang's eyes were also red. Tian Zhuang's mother was also standing on the side and crying.
At this time, the sound of a horse's hooves could be heard from outside. A carriage stopped in front of Tian Zhu's house. This carriage belonged to Tian Niu. Now that he was the shopkeeper, he could use the carriage in the shop. Now, he didn't need five days to go back to Treeroot Village from Emerald City. Now, he only needed two days to go back to the village.
After the carriage stopped, Tian Niu came down and entered the courtyard. When he entered the courtyard, he saw Cuifen hugging Little Crane Grass and crying. He sighed and stopped. He could understand Cuifen's feelings. He also couldn't bear to separate from his child. But at the same time, he also knew that if he kept Little Crane Grass in Root Village, then Little Crane Grass's growth would be delayed.
Tian Zhu also saw Tian Niu standing outside the door. He gently tapped the pipe in his hand and said, "Alright, Cuifen, don't cry. Bao 'er is going to learn, it's not like he won't come back. Go, let Bao' er go with Da Niu. In the future, whether he's a dragon or a snake will depend on this."
Cuifen let go of Little Crane Grass and wiped her tears. She looked at Little Crane Grass with a strong gaze and said, "Bao 'er, when you go to Uncle Da Niu's house, you have to be obedient. You have to learn seriously and don't be naughty."
Little Crane Grass nodded and said, "Mother, I will learn seriously. I will be obedient, I won't be naughty."
Cuifen nodded, then she gently touched Little Crane Grass's face and said, "Our Bao 'er is very obedient. You are mother's good child." Then she stood up and took Little Crane Grass's hand and walked out of the house. Then she bowed to Tian Niu and said, "Brother Da Niu, I'll leave Bao 'er to you."
Tian Niu returned the bow and said, "Sister, rest assured, I will take good care of Bao 'er."
Cuifen nodded, then she led Little Crane Grass to Da Niu. Then she looked down at Little Crane Grass and said, "Bao 'er, go, go with your Uncle Da Niu and learn properly."
Little Crane Grass nodded and walked to Tian Niu's side. Tian Niu cupped his fist to Tian Zhu and said, "Uncle Zhu, Aunty, Dazhuang, Sister, I will definitely take good care of Bao 'er. You can rest assured." Then he took Little Crane Grass to the carriage. Little Crane Grass was still looking back at his grandfather, grandmother, father, and mother.
They didn't expect that when they arrived in front of Tian Zhu's house, they would find that all the villagers had come. Village Chief Tian was also standing in front of the crowd. Tian Niu carried the little crane grass to the carriage and turned to look at the villagers. Then he turned to the village chief and said, "Father, you lead everyone back. I'll take good care of Bao 'er."
Village Chief Tian looked at the Little Crane Grass, then turned to Tian Niu and said, "Da Niu, take good care of Bao 'er. If the next time I see Bao' er and Bao 'er has lost weight, I will teach you a lesson. Go, everyone is here to send you off."
Tian Niu also knew that everyone was here to send him off, so he nodded and cupped his fist to the crowd. Then he turned around and got on the carriage, then he drove it away. Tian Niu's carriage was only a single horse carriage. It didn't have a carriage, it was just covered with a layer of hay. Even so, it was still considered a great thing in the village.
The people of Tree Root Village sent Tian Niu and Little Crane Grass to the entrance of the village. They watched as the carriage went further and further away until it couldn't be seen anymore. Only then did they slowly disperse. They knew that they had sent away a ray of hope today. What they didn't know was that it wasn't just a ray of hope that they had sent away. They also didn't think that their small Tree Root Village would undergo earth-shattering changes because of this child.
Little Crane Grass kept looking at the direction of the village until he couldn't see the village's shadow anymore. He couldn't hold it in any longer and his tears kept flowing out. However, he didn't cry out loud. He kept using his sleeves to wipe his eyes, but his tears were like spring water. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop them, they kept flowing out.
Tian Niu also saw Little Crane Grass's appearance. He sighed and hugged Little Crane Grass in his arms. Little Crane Grass hid in Tian Niu's arms and continued to cry. After an unknown period of time, he was tired from crying and finally fell asleep in a daze.
In his dream, Little Crane Grass discovered that he had once again become that man, that incomparably tall man. That man was still facing countless lightning bolts, but he didn't have any fear in his heart. He kept on dispersing the lightning bolts. In his eyes, these lightning bolts were nothing at all. He was incomparably powerful.
Then he discovered that the lightning bolts had completely disappeared. Then the man and the palace behind him were covered by a white light. After that, the man arrived at a new place. However, he felt very sleepy and tired. He wanted to sleep, but he suddenly appeared in a strange but very beautiful room. Then he said something to the women in the room and fell asleep. Before he fell asleep, he saw the women's worried eyes. Then he didn't know anything as he fell into darkness.
Little Crane Grass immediately woke up because the darkness was too frightening. There was no light at all, it was just darkness, the purest darkness. It was truly frightening.
"Bao 'er, you're awake!" A voice was suddenly heard. Little Crane Grass immediately woke up. He looked around and discovered that he was in a room. Uncle Daniu was sitting in front of him, looking at him with a worried expression.
Little Crane Grass immediately said, "Uncle Daniu, are we in the city? Are we in your home? "
Tian Niu shook his head and said, "Bao 'er, we're not home yet. We'll be home tomorrow. We're in an inn right now. Bao 'er, are you hungry? I've already told the waiter to prepare some food. Get up and eat. "
Little Crane Grass nodded, then he got up from the bed. Seeing his shoes on the ground, he immediately jumped down and put them on. Then he looked up at Tian Niu. Tian Niu watched Little Crane Grass. Tian Niu looked at Little Crane Grass's movements, but he didn't go up to help. He wanted to see if Little Crane Grass could put on her own shoes, and he was very satisfied. From Little Crane Grass's skillful movements, he could see that Little Crane Grass had already learned how to put on her own shoes. This also made Tian Niu feel relieved. This meant that Little Crane Grass could already take care of herself, which was a good thing. Otherwise, when he went to school, it would be very troublesome. Although he was now a shopkeeper, he wasn't a rich family. It was impossible for him to hire a servant to take care of Little Crane Grass. If Little Crane Grass couldn't take care of herself, then even if she reached home, Little Crane Grass couldn't immediately go to school.
Seeing Little Crane Grass put on his shoes, Tian Niu pulled Little Crane Grass' hand and walked out of the room. Strictly speaking, the inn they were staying in was just a rural inn. Because the house was big and had a lot of rooms, there were a few empty rooms for passersby to rest. Therefore, the inn wasn't very big. When the two left the room, they entered a small living room. An old man was sitting in the living room. When he saw the two come out, the old man quickly stood up and said, "Guests, the food is ready. Do you want to eat now?"
