"Ah! You're really something. Every time I talk to you, I forget the time. It's all your fault! "
Qin Dongxue suddenly remembered the matter at hand. She peeked at the time and immediately blamed Ling Yun.
It was already eleven o 'clock in the morning.
Ling Yun could only smile bitterly in response. He thought to himself, You were the one who brought up the topic. Why are you blaming me now?
However, he would be looking for trouble if he were to argue with Qin Dongxue. He might not even reach Qin Qiuyue's place in an hour.
"It's all my fault. Let's go. Don't let Mother wait for too long."
"Let's go, let's go!"
Qin Dongxue decided to use the Sword Kinesis Flight, and Ling Yun followed her easily.
Actually, Ancient Qin Village wasn't that big. Including the forests, fields, rivers, and ponds around the village, Ancient Qin Village was about a thousand meters long and eight hundred meters wide.
There were only a few dozen independent houses in the village, and because of the incident 18 years ago, more than half of those houses were empty, with very few people living in them.
Qin Qiuyue's return to the Qin Family this time was indeed a homecoming. However, it had been almost nineteen years. No matter how good her memory was, Ancient Qin Village was already very unfamiliar to her.
This could be proven by one thing. She had never seen any of the children in the Qin Family below the age of nineteen, let alone know their names.
Even Qin Wei, the eldest son of Qin Chunfeng, was only one and a half years old when she left the Qin Family. Now, he had grown into a twenty-year-old youth.
Therefore, after meeting everyone in the family, Qin Qiuyue took the initiative to say that she wouldn't stay in the Qin Family's ancestral mansion. Instead, she chose to stay in a quiet courtyard in the southwest corner of the village.
Now, Qin Changqing agreed to all of Qin Qiuyue's requests without hesitation. Whatever she said, he would do. He wouldn't go too far beyond Qin Qiuyue's standards, nor would he discount them. He would only try his best to achieve perfection.
Silently nourishing everything.
Qin Changqing did this because of three reasons.
Firstly, it was because he felt that he owed Qin Qiuyue too much. His heart ached for his eldest daughter, and he was filled with endless guilt towards her.
Secondly, Qin Qiuyue's experiences over the past 18 years, especially the past half a year or so, were simply too bumpy. It was not an exaggeration to say that her life had been filled with bad luck. Now that she had finally escaped from the calamity, both her body and mind needed time to rest.
Last but not least, Qin Qiuyue single-handedly raised a pair of exceptional children, Lingyun and Ning Lingyu!
These two people were too heaven-defying! Especially Ling Yun!
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Qin Family was able to hold their heads high and be as stable as Mount Tai today was all because of Ling Yun!
A mother's status was determined by her son's status. In any era, in any place, from the ancient royal families to the ordinary families, there was no exception!
Swoosh!
Qin Dongxue and Ling Yun arrived at the southwest end of the village and stopped in front of a quiet courtyard.
"This is the place. Sister said that she wants to live here alone for some time and doesn't want anyone to disturb her."
Qin Dongxue pointed at the door and turned to Ling Yun.
"Hmm."
Ling Yun scanned the surroundings and found that the courtyard was surrounded by green trees. The lawn around the courtyard was trimmed neatly. Not far from the door was a clear river that coincidentally made a turn at the southwest corner of the village.
This courtyard was rather large and was a genuine ancient building. Inside, there were fake mountains, green trees, flowers, and a small bamboo forest. There was even a clear lake with a man-made bridge that led to the center of the lake. There was a small pavilion that was used to enjoy the scenery.
There was a light there. The light was soft and not dazzling, reflecting the sparkling surface of the lake.
At this moment, Qin Qiuyue was sitting on a bamboo chair in the middle of the lake. There was a simple tea table in front of her that emitted the fragrance of tea.
It had been eight days since Ling Yun rescued Qin Qiuyue on the night of the 26th of September.
Compared to when she was rescued, Qin Qiuyue had obviously recovered a lot. Although her body was still on the skinny side, her figure had clearly become rounder. Her skin had become smooth and translucent again. Her cheeks were rosy and glowed under the light. Her long hair had become black and glossy, and her gaze was calm and gentle. She gave off a feeling of indifference and transcendence.
She sat there quietly and sipped her tea. It was unknown how long she had been there, but it was as if her entire being had blended into the scenery of the courtyard.
"What a great place!"
Ling Yun couldn't help but praise after seeing everything in the courtyard with his divine sense.
At the same time, this was, of course, to let Qin Qiuyue know that he had arrived.
"Yun Er, you're here?"
Qin Qiuyue heard Ling Yun's voice and turned her head slightly to look in the direction of the courtyard. "The door isn't closed, come in."
"Yes!"
Ling Yun replied and pushed the door open.
"Dongxue, I want to talk to Yun Er alone tonight. You can go back now, but don't eavesdrop."
Qin Dongxue was about to follow Ling Yun into the courtyard when she heard Qin Qiuyue's words.
She had long known that Qin Qiuyue definitely had something to say to Ling Yun alone since she didn't go to Big Brother's house for dinner. She originally thought that she could listen in by personally sending Ling Yun over, but she was stopped by her big sister before she could even enter the courtyard.
"Oh!"
Qin Dongxue was very discouraged, but she could only agree. "Big Sister, I'll be leaving then!"
Ling Yun purposely stood at the door for a while longer. He was slightly surprised when he realized that Qin Dongxue actually waved at him and left. However, he only smiled and closed the courtyard door before turning towards the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
"Boom!"
Just as he reached the lakeside, Ling Yun used his divine sense and directly took out the Ghost Willow. He chose a spot and planted the Ghost Willow.
In an instant, the Wood Spiritual Energy in the courtyard was incomparably blazing. A huge amount of life essence permeated from the Ghost Willow and enveloped the area around the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Now, the Ghost Willow could completely communicate with Ling Yun. If Ling Yun didn't want it to, it wouldn't emit any Wood Spiritual Energy even if it was exposed outside.
Ling Yun did this to speed up Qin Qiuyue's recovery.
"Whoosh!"
In the next moment, Ling Yun's figure flashed and appeared in front of Qin Qiuyue.
"Mom, I'm here."
This time, Ling Yun knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Qin Qiuyue.
Even though Ling Yun had saved Qin Qiuyue eight days ago, that was when they were working together. Only now, when they were alone, could they be considered to have truly met.
Qin Qiuyue smiled and accepted Ling Yun's kowtow. Then, she stood up and stretched out her hands to help Ling Yun up.
"Yun Er, get up."
Under the light, Qin Qiuyue held Ling Yun's shoulders with both hands. She carefully looked at Ling Yun's face and stared at him for a while before releasing her hands.
"Sit down. Tonight, there will only be the two of us here. Let's have a good chat and talk."
"Aye!"
Ling Yun bowed respectfully to Qin Qiuyue before sitting down opposite her.
"Yun Er, have some tea first."
Just as Ling Yun sat down, Qin Qiuyue poured a cup of tea and brought it over. She smiled and said, "You must have drunk quite a lot tonight? My second brother, Qin Xiahua, can't stop persuading you to drink. Yesterday, he was waiting for you to come back and won't go home without getting drunk. "
"Yes, I did drink quite a lot. However, in the end, it was Second Uncle who got drunk, not me."
Ling Yun said with a smile as he drank the tea in one gulp.
Qin Qiuyue smiled sweetly and said, "With his ability, it's impossible for him to get the current Yun Er drunk."
"I like peace and quiet. In the past, I rarely participated in such lively occasions. Now, I don't want to participate even more. Therefore, even though I knew you were coming, I didn't come to welcome you. Don't blame me."
Ling Yun hurriedly said, "Mom, it's already my fault that I didn't come to greet you immediately after arriving at the Ancient Qin Village. How can I blame you?"
Qin Qiuyue shook her head and said, "I told your Grandpa Qin to wait for you to come and see me after dinner. That's why they arranged it this way."
She took a sip of tea and put down the teacup. Then, she looked at Ling Yun and said, "Yun Er, the day I left the letter in Qingshui City was actually the same day you went to the crater. It should be slightly later than you, around four o 'clock in the morning."
Ling Yun was stunned. He didn't expect Qin Qiuyue to cut to the chase so quickly.
"Oh, I went to the crater at around midnight. So, it seems like Mom left Qingshui City only four hours later than me."
"That's right."
Qin Qiuyue nodded. "However, I didn't expect us to be separated for half a year. After half a year, Yun Er has also grown to such a realm!"
Hearing this sentence, Ling Yun's heart skipped a beat.
However, Ling Yun's expression didn't change. He looked at his nose and calmly poured tea for Qin Qiuyue.
"Yun Er, I don't have much to say about what happened after I left Qingshui City. You already know what you need to know."
"As for what happened to you in the past six months, even though I've heard a lot of it in the past eight days, it's all over the place."
"So, tonight, right here, can you tell me in detail what you've experienced after entering the crater until now?"
Qin Qiuyue picked up the teacup again. Her hands were trembling slightly as she looked at Ling Yun expectantly.
"Of course."
This was something that Ling Yun was supposed to do. How could he refuse? He smiled and pondered for a while before starting to tell his story.
"Mom, this is a long story … That afternoon, after I sent Zhuang Meifeng and Xiao Meimei to Mansion Number Nine …"
"Hold on."
Qin Qiuyue interrupted him as soon as he started. "Yun Er, I'm willing to listen to your explanation no matter how detailed it is. However, there's something that I have to say first." Qin Qiuyue smiled faintly.
"Mom, please speak."
"What should be said, don't say a word about what shouldn't be said. Don't hide what should be said from me, and don't lie to me about what shouldn't be said. "
Ling Yun: "…"
Just from this sentence alone, Ling Yun knew that Qin Qiuyue, who had experienced the ups and downs of life, had wisdom as vast as the sea.
…
Hmm, this conversation between mother and son finally had the right atmosphere and flavor.
