The vast Tang Sect encompassed the entire Crouching Dragon Mountain Range.
There were three peaks in the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range: Sky Dragon Mountain, Earth Dragon Mountain, and Divine Dragon Mountain. Between the three mountains were basins, deep streams, and streams. The Tang Family and the Elders resided in Divine Dragon Mountain, while the Tang Sect's foundation and workers were spread out in the various weapon workshops on Sky Dragon Mountain and Earth Dragon Mountain.
In this autumn, there was a gorgeous scenery in one of the mountain ranges. Over there was Divine Dragon Mountain, and all the daisies had bloomed. These daisies were all of the same species. They all had white petals and yellow cores, and they were Ning Jing's favorite.
This sea of flowers had been planted by Ning Jing and Tang Li when they returned to the Tang Sect.
Back then, on the night of their wedding, Tang Li had planted little daisies all over their wedding room, and Ning Jing had not cared about them at all. However, even now, she still remembered what Tang Li had said back then.
Under the flickering red candlelight, he had said, "No matter what, I will take responsibility until the end. Jing Jing, I, Tang Li, will only love you in this lifetime. From now on, we will live on Crouching Dragon Mountain and forget about the mundane world. Let's plant little daisies all over the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range, okay? When autumn comes and the mountains are filled with your favorite flowers, I will do nothing but sit with you in the sea of flowers every day and watch the sunrise and sunset. Okay? Tang Li, Divine Dragon Mountain is already filled with my favorite flowers. Why haven't you woken up yet?
At this time, it was early morning.
Little Tang Tang, who could already walk and run, was playing with the maidservants in the sea of flowers. Under the sunlight, laughter filled the air.
Ning Jing and Tang Li sat on a big rock at the side, watching their daughter run and laughing.
Tang Li had already learned how to smile.
Every time he saw his daughter giggling, he would smile even more brightly. Those who did not know him would think that he had recovered and that he was the elegant and roguish guy he used to be.
In the past year, and in the past few months, Ning Jing had found a reason to persevere and stubborn under his smile.
Tang Li looked at his daughter while Ning Jing looked at him.
In this sea of flowers that covered the mountains and plains, life was not difficult. But the flowers will wither and winter will come. Ning Jing looked at the smiling Tang Li and muttered to herself, "Ah Li, wake up before the flowers wither, okay?"
Almost every day, Ning Jing would ask Tang Li this question.
Even if he could never wake up, she was willing to stay by his side for the rest of her life. However, even if she wanted to, the Tang Sect had to agree to it first!
Just yesterday, Mrs. Tang had half-jokingly said to her, "Ning Jing, you have to give birth to a boy for the Tang Family before his father comes back. Back then, it was only after I gave birth to Tang Li that no one in the Tang Sect dared to talk about taking in concubines. Otherwise, you'll have to deal with those girls in the future! "
Tang Zijin doted on Mrs. Tang so much that he had quarreled with his parents and elders over the issue of concubines. Ning Jing had even heard that Tang Zijin had considered eloping with Mrs. Tang in the past.
But her situation with Tang Li was different from theirs. Mrs. Tang could give birth to a boy, but she had no chance.
Moreover, people changed. Not everyone would admit their impulsive youths or stick to their ideals. When Tang Li had run away from home to escape his marriage, Tang Zijin had never stopped searching for him. He even forced Tang Li to marry Cang Qiuying without considering Tang Li's feelings. It was all for the sake of Cang Qiuzi's power on Celestial Mountain.
Ning Jing might be young, but she wasn't an ignorant and naive girl. She knew how cruel the reality of the Tang Clan was in this sea of flowers.
Even now, she didn't dare to tell Mrs. Tang that she couldn't get pregnant again. No matter how much Mrs. Tang doted on Tang Li, she wouldn't stand by her side when it came to having no children.
Only Tang Li, who was now the head of the Tang Clan, could be her and little Tang Li's only support.
Tang Li, when will you wake up?
Abruptly, Tang Li turned to look at Ning Jing.
Ning Jing's heart skipped a beat. After all, he never responded to her questions every day. He was always entranced by his daughter.
This was the first time he had turned to look at her when she had asked him this question.
Ning Jing was so moved that her heart leapt into her throat. She wanted to take Tang Li's hand, but didn't dare. Instead, she waited anxiously for his answer.
Tang Li murmured, "Will the flowers bloom again after they've withered?"
Ning Jing smiled helplessly. "They'll bloom again next year. Once they're gone … perhaps they'll never come back."
"Are we … leaving?" Tang Li asked again.
Ning Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He wasn't asking "Are you leaving?", but "Are we leaving?" If she wanted to take him away, she wouldn't have come back. But now, she really did want to take him away.
Tang Li waited for Ning Jing's answer. At this time, Shuang 'er, Mrs. Tang's maid, hurried over.
"Clan Master, Madam, Old Man fainted!"
"Quickly go and take a look. Old Man fainted!"
Ning Jing was shocked. She told the servants to take care of little Tang Tang while she pulled Tang Li and ran. Little Tang Tang stood up from the cluster of flowers and looked at her father and mother. Her delicate face was full of confusion and ignorance.
She watched for a while, and when she saw her father and mother walking further and further away, she immediately burst into tears. She had just learned how to speak and didn't know many words. As she cried, she babbled, "Ma … Ma …"
The maid had no choice but to run after them with little Tang Tang in her arms.
When Ning Jing and Tang Li arrived at the top of the mountain, Mrs. Tang had already been sent to her room, and the doctor was taking her pulse.
Tang Li, her son, stood expressionlessly outside the crowd, while Ning Jing rushed to the front. She waited quietly with a worried expression.
The surrounding maids who didn't know what was going on were all suspicious. After all, Mrs. Jing had fought with Old Man many times after she married into the Tang Clan! The entire Tang Clan knew that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't get along.
After the doctor stood up, Ning Jing quickly asked, "What's wrong with Old Man?"
"Don't worry, Madam. Old Man just overworked himself and caught a cold. His body is weak, so he fainted," the doctor said seriously. The physician said seriously, "This old man will prescribe a medicine to help Old Madame drive away her cold. As long as Old Madame rests more and recovers from her cold, she will be fine with a little nourishment and nourishment. Madam will wake up soon. "
Ning Jing sighed in relief and told the maid to go with the doctor to get the medicine.
After everyone left, only Ning Jing and Tang Li were left in the room. Tang Li stood to the side in a daze. If Ning Jing didn't say anything, he would probably stand there forever.
Ning Jing sat down by the bed and calmly said, "Tang Li, come here. Your mother is sick. "
Tang Li looked over and obediently walked over immediately.
Ning Jing moved aside and let Tang Li sit beside Madam Tang. Tang Li still did as he was told, but his head was lowered.
Looking at the mother and son like this, Ning Jing suddenly felt upset and said angrily, "Tang Li, look at your mother! Your mother loves you the most! Look at her, okay? "
Tang Li's gaze fell on Madam Tang's face. After looking at her for a while, he still looked like a fool and didn't say a word.
Ning Jing wanted to say something, but she suddenly realized that the corners of Madam Tang's eyes were wet. Soon, a line of tears silently flowed down the corner of her eyes.
Ning Jing then realized that Madam Tang had actually woken up a long time ago.
Ning Jing steeled her heart and pulled Tang Li's hand to wipe Madam Tang's tears.
Unexpectedly, Tang Li uncharacteristically slapped her hand away and suddenly stood up. Ning Jing also stood up and asked, "Tang Li, what are you rejecting?"
Tang Li shook his head repeatedly.
"Why? Why are you disobeying me? "Ning Jing asked again. She clearly felt that Tang Li was acting strangely.
Tang Li suddenly turned and ran out. At this time, the servant girl was about to come in with little Tang Tang, but she was bumped into by Tang Li. Just like that, little Tang Tang was sent flying out!
"Tang Tang!"
"My granddaughter!"
Ning Jing chased after him. Madam Tang was so anxious that she rolled off the bed. She didn't care about the pain or the dizziness in her head. She got up and chased out of the door.
As soon as she reached the door, Madam Tang saw a very thrilling scene. Little Tang Tang was about to fall to the ground, but Tang Li, who had flown over, caught her in time. He turned around and fell heavily to the ground, his limbs in the air.
Thank goodness!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Madam Tang couldn't hold back her tears, her eyes blurring. Although Ning Jing didn't show anything, her tightly clenched hands betrayed her heart.
On the other hand, little Tang Tang sat in Tang Li's arms and giggled. She seemed to like this kind of thrilling game very much.
It wasn't clear whether Tang Li was frightened or not, but at this moment, he was smiling foolishly at his daughter.
With her daughter around, Ning Jing never forced Tang Li to do anything.
She had the servant girls and attendants look after Madam Tang while she sent her back to her room.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't say a word, as if the matter of wiping away tears didn't happen. Ning Jing helped Madam Tang to the bed and was about to leave after settling her down. However, Madam Tang called out to her.
"Ning Jing, let's talk?"
Ning Jing could more or less guess what Madam Tang wanted to talk to her about. She sat down.
"Recently, has Ah Li … been sleeping in your room?" Madam Tang asked.
This was an interesting question.
Ever since they got married, even though they slept in different beds, Tang Li didn't have the habit of sleeping in the study. Not even for a day. And after she brought Tang Li back to the Tang Sect, Tang Li only recognized her and her daughter. If Tang Li didn't sleep in her room, where would he sleep?
Madam Tang asked a question that she already knew the answer to.
Ning Jing knew that Madam Tang wanted to ask about that. More accurately, Madam Tang wanted to ask if there was a possibility of her getting pregnant.
Ning Jing's eyes flashed with a hint of calculation. Perhaps this would be an excellent excuse for her. She replied, "No, he's not willing."
Actually, she didn't know if Tang Li was willing or not. But every night, she fell asleep with Tang Li in her arms and slept until dawn.
If she said that Tang Li wasn't willing. Did that mean that they wouldn't find another woman for Tang Li in the future?
Unexpectedly, Madam Tang took out a small packet of powder and handed it to Ning Jing. She whispered, "You should know how to use it. Ning Jing, help Tang Li have a son. "
Ning Jing had already guessed what Madam Tang wanted to do, but she didn't expect that Madam Tang would want her to drug Tang Li! Looking at the packet of powder, she only felt that it was especially ironic.
Ning Jing's lips curled into a Cold sneer. Madam Tang saw it and said, "Zijin and the elders are all in Tiandu. The project there won't be finished without three or four years. In these three or four years, many of the affairs of the Tang Sect should be shouldered by Tang Li. Now, with Tang Li like this, what can he do? "
"I can do it!" Ning Jing said seriously. She knew the current situation of the Tang Sect very well. She had also given many suggestions to Madam Tang.
"If you don't have a son, who will believe you?" Madam Tang asked helplessly.
