"Well, why should we be enemies if we can be friends? I haven't asked for your name yet. Can … can you tell me?"
But the next moment, the Crane Patriarch's slightly stuttering and expectant voice made the old woman stiffen. Her mind went blank and she could not believe it. Was he trying to flirt with her?
"Can … can I? It's okay if you don't want to tell me. I … I won't mind. "
The Crane Patriarch's voice became even more stuttering. There was even a hint of nervousness and uneasiness in his voice.
The old woman opened her mouth but could not say a word. Her tangerine-peel-like old face was flushed. She was nervous, perturbed, and a little shy.
A question was circling in her mind. What did he see in her? Her face was full of wrinkles and most of her hair was white. She was an old woman with one foot in the grave. What part of her could attract a man?
Oh, that's right, her figure. She had maintained a pretty good figure. Even though some parts had begun to sag and her skin had begun to age, she still had the elasticity.
However, such a powerhouse could find any young woman he wanted. Why did he have a crush on an old woman like her?
The old woman's heart was filled with mixed feelings. She hoped that this powerhouse really had a crush on her, but she was also afraid that he was just playing with her. If that happened, she would have no place to hide her old face.
"You don't want to? Forget it then. I'm sorry, I've offended you. "
The Crane Patriarch thought that she was really unwilling and apologized politely. But the disappointment in his voice could not be concealed.
Although their conversation was through telepathy, the Crane Patriarch did not deliberately hide it from Ding Ning because of the spiritual connection between him and her.
Ding Ning was stunned. He did not expect the Crane Patriarch to have a crush on this old woman. His taste was really … unique.
"The Patriarch is missing Great Grandmother."
He Xiang secretly explained to him through telepathy. Ding Ning then understood what was going on.
It turned out that the Crane Patriarch and his wife were very close. Although they were both from the Crane Tribe and had a long lifespan, their cultivation aptitude limited their realm, cultivation, and achievements.
The Crane Ancestor's aptitude was very good, but his wife's cultivation aptitude was very poor. Therefore, even though both of them were known for their longevity, their lifespans were worlds apart.
The Crane Ancestor had always thought that his lifespan was very long, and that he could spend a very long time with his wife. Therefore, when he was young, he was wholeheartedly focused on improving his cultivation base. If he was not immersed in nature, he would cultivate in seclusion. As a result, he neglected his wife's feelings.
The experts of the Crane Clan would go into seclusion for a few months, or a hundred or even a thousand years. The Crane Ancestor had been focusing on martial arts all year round and neglected his wife's care and communication, which made his wife mistakenly think that he had begun to despise her. She fell sick from depression and passed away when he went into seclusion.
When Ancestor Crane came out of seclusion, it was already a hundred years later. When he heard the news, he was overwhelmed with grief. He knelt in front of his deceased wife's grave and cried bitterly. He touched the tombstone day and night in repentance.
Their son also had a lot of complaints about him, thinking that he was heartless. When he saw how devastated he was, he realized that he still loved their mother deeply. Only then did he take out the letter his mother had left for him and show it to him.
Rather than calling it a letter, it was more like her diary. In the diary, the Crane Ancestor's wife had written down everything that happened between them from the moment they met to the moment of their death.
From the innocent feelings when they were childhood sweethearts … to the first awakening of love … to the blush and heartbeat when they were in love … to the shyness when they were newlyweds … to the warm life after they were married … to the joy of hugging each other when their children were born …
Until the second half of their lives, the passion began to fade, and love turned into familial love. Life became more and more ordinary. The husband and wife were already so familiar with each other that there was no need for too much communication. Instead, they began to drift apart.
Women were different from men. Women needed protection and companionship. She had no ambition, nor did she seek to have extraordinary cultivation base. She only wanted to live a peaceful life with the person she loved deeply.
It was a pity that the first half of her life developed according to her expectations, but the second half of her life completely deviated from the trajectory of her life. She tossed and turned in bed at night, unable to sleep. In the end, she became depressed and fell ill, ending her imperfect life.
On the last page of the diary, his wife thanked him for giving her the first half of her life that she wanted. She did not regret it, but she had some regrets. If there was a next life, she hoped that she could complete the second half of her life.
The Crane Ancestor looked at the record left by his dead wife and cried bitterly. He always felt that there was still a long time, but he ignored her feelings. Unfortunately, it was too late. The regret of his dead wife had become a knot in his heart that he could not untie. Therefore, he did not remarry, but waited for his dead wife to reincarnate to make up for the rest of his life that he owed her.
"You mean? This old woman might be the reincarnation of the Crane Ancestor's dead wife? "
Ding Ning asked in disbelief. What kind of international joke was this? The Crane Ancestor's wife died in the Kunpeng World. Even if she reincarnated, she could only be in the Myriad Demon Territory or the Hell Wretched Earth. How could she reincarnate to Earth?
"Who knows? Let's not talk about whether or not great-grandmother can reincarnate. Even if she reincarnated, she would have long lost the memory of her previous life, and it is impossible for her to look like …"
He Xiang suddenly stopped talking halfway. He looked at the old woman in disbelief, whose face was flushed, and gulped.
"What's wrong?"
Ding Ning asked with some doubts in his mind.
"No wonder, no wonder the Elder Ancestor thinks that she is the reincarnation of great-grandmother. I didn't take a closer look before, but now that I have a closer look, she is simply a replica of great-grandmother. Even if they are not exactly the same, they are at least 80% similar. Especially the way her face is flushed, it is almost the same as great-grandmother's."
He Xiang said in shock.
Ding Ning was also a little dumbfounded. He did not expect such a coincidence to happen. He did not believe that this old woman was the reincarnation of the Crane Ancestor's wife. It should be a coincidence that they looked similar.
But everyone understood this kind of thing and could not say anything. If the Crane Ancestor thought that she was, then she was. Even if she was not, it could be considered as fulfilling his regret.
What's more, the old woman was definitely a person of high status and power in the Holy-goddess Tribe. If the Crane Ancestor could make her one of his people, it would be exactly what Ding Ning wanted. He immediately encouraged the Crane Ancestor to pursue his own happiness. If he really could not do it, he could knock her out and carry her back to force himself on her, and then slowly cultivate their relationship.
This shameless suggestion made the Crane Ancestor speechless for a long time. He muttered in his heart, "No wonder you have so many women. You f * cking snatched them back like this."
Ding Ning did not know that he had already established the image of a bandit in the Crane Ancestor's mind. He even happily thought that the Crane Ancestor was seriously considering his unscrupulous suggestion.
He stretched out his hand and held the white hand of Night Lone Ranger, who was reluctant to leave him all the time. His eyes full of tenderness were full of endless love and heartache. He blamed himself and said, "It's all my fault that you have suffered."
"It's not your fault. I don't suffer at all when I can see you again."
Night Lone Ranger's eyes were full of happy smiles.
On the way here, she had already known the general course of events. Although she was not clear about the specific details, she knew that the young man who needed her to secretly protect at the beginning had grown into a towering tree that could shelter her from wind and rain.
Recalling every little thing since they knew each other, from the accident at the beginning to the ill-fated relationship between them, until they met again today after the clouds had dispersed, she felt a myriad of emotions in her heart. She was both proud and full of pride.
Half a year ago, she still hoped that Ding Ning could enter the Sky Martial Arts Realm as soon as possible and show his talent so that he would be qualified to pursue her.
Unexpectedly, half a year later, he was already qualified to stand on the opposite side of her sect. With the toughest attitude and the most overbearing way, he made her sect, which was listed in the Holy Gate, send her over obediently.
This was her man, the man of her Night Lone Ranger. He did what no one could do for thousands of years. How could she not be proud? Not proud?
Gently stroking her swollen abdomen, Night Lone Ranger murmured, "Child, this is your father, the great hero who can protect us."
"What did you say?"
Ding Ning was distracted teaching Crane Ancestor to pick up girls. He did not hear what she said and asked hurriedly.
"Nothing. I told our child that Dad is a great hero."
Night Lone Ranger gave him a bright smile and said softly.
Ding Ning felt warm in his heart. He held her hand tightly and said with a smile, "I got your master here. She will accompany you every day."
"Ah, really?"
Night Lone Ranger said in surprise. She looked up and saw Night Lone Ranger smiling at her. She let go of Ding Ning's hand, shouted "Master", and ran over quickly.
"Slow down, slow down, be careful of the child …"
Ding Ning's face turned green with fear, and he shouted with his heart beating fast.
Only then did Night Lone Ranger realize that something was wrong. She hurriedly slowed down, turned her head, smiled apologetically at Ding Ning, and stuck out her tongue mischievously.
Ding Ning did not know whether to laugh or cry. He rushed over, carefully supported her as if serving the empress dowager, and blamed, "You are going to be a mother, how dare you still act like a child?"
"I am too happy. I have a master, you, and a child. In the future, I will also be a person with a family."
Night Lone Ranger knew that she was in the wrong, so she pouted and said coquettishly.
Hearing this, Ding Ning felt a lump in his throat, and his tears almost fell down. He held her hand tightly and said in a choked voice, "Well, we will go home later and never be separated again."
"Okay!"
Night Lone Ranger nodded hard, with a bright smile on her face.
"You scared me. Why did you run? Aren't you afraid of hurting the child?"
Night Lone Ranger ran over and complained with a face full of fear.
Night Lone Ranger held Ding Ning with one hand and Night Lone Ranger with the other, and said with a smile, "It's okay. She is as tough as I was when I was young."
"No matter how tough she is, the child is still young. When she is born, we don't need to be so careful."
Night Lone Ranger said very seriously.
Ding Ning felt that a row of crows flew over his head, and his face was full of black lines. "What did she say?
What did she mean by "When she is born, we don't need to be so careful"?
Haha … no wonder Duxing was raised by her to be so … sturdy.
Instead of feeling ashamed, he felt proud. Ding Ning was speechless.
He suddenly felt a strong sense of regret. How could he let this unreliable woman take care of Duxing?
No, no, I definitely can't let this silly woman take care of my daughter in the future. Otherwise, I don't know how 'naughty' she will become.
Also, Du Xing couldn't be handed over to her to take care of. With her temperament, she might forget about Du Xing at a critical moment. This wasn't a matter of not eating for one or two days. It was a matter of life and death.
Ding Ning began to seriously consider who he should find to take care of Duxing. Ye Linglong was directly rejected. At most, he would allow her to chat with Duxing to relieve boredom when she was free. He could never let her take care of Duxing's daily life.
Let her sister Ding Qianlie take care of her?
No, not to mention that her sister was very busy, even if she wasn't busy, it wouldn't be suitable. Besides, she had never given birth to a child and had never served anyone before. How could she have the experience of taking care of someone?
Luoxue? No, she had no time to deal with the restaurant. Most importantly, she had never given birth before and had no experience in taking care of pregnant women.
