to Song Wei's house to see his younger brother. As soon as I walked in, I felt something was wrong. Later, under his younger brother's quilt, I saw a ghost. The ghost also saw me, but it closed its e...This subtle and hard-to-articulate agony wasn't just unbearable for him, it was starting to get to me too.
He was my mentor in this matter, although it wasn't pleasant at first. It gave me psychological trauma and made me feel like it was a painful thing.
Later, I gradually realized he wasn't that scary. His forbearance and compassion eventually turned into love. When I heard him say "...also love you," I gave up struggling.
The nights used to be wild and passionate, but now, gradually, both of them have suppressed the spark in their hearts. They don't even dare to kiss too deeply anymore. It's truly unbearable...
"Don't look at me like that, Mu Xia Qiao, it will kindle the flames of desire." He said with a smile, "I'm not one of those old men in the Nine Heavens, I can't be as pure as them."
Pure… I remembered the space where Jiang Qiyun had attained enlightenment.
Pure Land of Bliss.
Is it necessary to cultivate the mindset of Sanqing, Sisheng, Shenxiao, and Jiucheng to be a true immortal
"What are you thinking about again" Jiang Qiyun's clear voice rang behind my neck.
"Didn't...you go to the Shen family today That's why you're out so late"
"Not yet, I'm busy."
"I received today—"
"I know, the attendants came to tell me," he paused and chuckled lightly. "They were all in a fuss reporting: Your Majesty, the little empress has gone off ghost hunting again."
There's nothing strange about it, this isn't the first time I've dealt with a ghost.
"I can't call upon those two little imps, I kind of miss them. It's been ages since I last saw them." I sighed, it was all my fault for losing that important seal...
Jiang Qiyun's voice was heavy with worry: "I'm worried that Mingzhang wasn't simply lost in the Underworld. We've searched everywhere, and found nothing... Could it be that when he broke the formation and fell into the path of evil spirits, a malicious spirit took him In any case, he must be protected by a barrier. Otherwise, I would have been able to sense him."
"What should we do then... If we can't find..."
Jiang Qiyun let out a long sigh: "I'm thinking of going to the Heavenly Palace."
"Huh What are you doing"
"Go, acknowledge your mistakes!" He gritted his teeth. "Let the Jade Emperor destroy these two divine seals and give me new ones."
His tone was extremely reluctant, like someone as proud as him having to admit they were wrong... He must be very conflicted.
Those omnipotent immortals who have lived for countless years probably look at Jiang Qiyun as if he were a junior, and they like to bully and play tricks on him, don't they
"But you have to wait until you've given birth." He sighed, "If that old man makes things difficult for me, I won't be able to come back for a while. Why don't you just go after you've had the baby"
... Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Although Jiang Qiyun wasn't around during the day, he knew about my every move. I suspected he had sent someone to watch me. As soon as I stepped out of the house, he would know where I was going.
My home is very lively now, I need two rice cookers to cook, because Tan Lang eats too much. He said he has almost never eaten at the table. Hearing this, I couldn't stop my tears welling up and kept giving him dishes.
My brother chimed in, "Xiao Qiao, you haven't even become a mother yet, and you're already so shallow!"
The God of Wealth finally remembered our family and quickly sent another job.
This document was sent by someone from the Shen family.
The Shen family does things on a much grander scale than we do. They even send their disciples to pick us up in cars. Before, Old Mrs. Shen mentioned that the Shen family would also introduce jobs to us, but we would have to give them a portion as an offering according to their rules.
This is to be expected, my brother has no problem with this, but he's very unhappy about it involving the Shen family.
This content is empty. Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
"Alright, Yun Fan, after all, she's your aunt. Some respect is still necessary. Besides, the Shen family is where your mother grew up." My dad said with a frown, trying to persuade me.
The case Shen's family gave us was in a remote village. My brother flipped through a few pages and said with a pout, "It takes five hours to drive here! What big clients could there possibly be in such a desolate place They gave us this thankless task just because they know we won't make much profit. That old Shen is really cunning. I don't believe there are any big clients in this backwater."
His voice cut off abruptly.
The amount of the commission is written as five hundred thousand.
My brother jumped up suddenly: "Old Mrs. Shen is still generous! I thought she'd only give me five thousand for this little job. I'll go pack my things now!"
He took two steps and turned back to ask me, "Xiao Qiao, are you coming It's quite remote there, the environment might be harsh, and you might have to stay outside for a night."
"Go ahead, if you go I'll definitely go too." I flipped through the files and realized the client was a mine owner. No wonder he was so lavish even in this remote backwater.
My brother hesitated, struggling to say, "This will be the last time. Finishing this job will give her family some face, and we won't have to clash with the Mu family so fiercely afterward... After this, we'll stop taking jobs. Wait until you've safely given birth and recovered your health, then we can talk."
I smiled at my brother. He really thought of everything.
》》》
The next morning, we set off early and continued to discuss what had happened on the way.
Mine owners are a type of businessman who tend to have more karmic obstacles. If they have an accident, it's even more troublesome. My brother said it must be because he accidentally dug up someone's ancestral grave, which is why he's so unlucky.
This mine owner's household is troubled, and recently a child has died.
His eldest daughter was spoiled and got pregnant before she turned eighteen. He and his wife beat her up, and she ran away from home. When they finally found her, her stomach was already big, and she couldn't have an abortion. The couple gritted their teeth and said, "Let's just have the baby."
But her parents didn't give her a good face, scolding her every day. The eldest daughter, in a fit of anger, hanged herself.
"This spiteful ghost is bound to cause trouble, definitely making the house unbearable." My brother scoffed.
The mine owner lived in the county town. After we arrived, he stammered and said, “Could you two first help me perform a ritual for my child He’s still at home.”
"Why are you still at home It's past the seventh day, isn't it" I asked in puzzlement.
It's already April, and the temperature is rising every day. Staying home for so many days, aren't you afraid of getting smelly!
The mine owner's face was full of pain. He whispered, "I also want to send them away as soon as possible! But... but my daughter refuses to leave!!"
His face was pale and gaunt, a clear indication of extreme panic. He had no idea what his daughter might have done at home to frighten him to such a state.
When I got off the bus, he saw that I was pregnant and asked in a terrified voice, "You're pregnant at such a young age"
I nodded and said, “That’s right, but I’m luckier. My family loves me and hasn’t driven me crazy.”
The mine owner couldn't hold his face anymore, clutching his head and saying: "...I never expected the child would go to such extremes!"
So, many people think that verbal abuse isn't a big deal. It's just a few harsh words, right Little do they know, the psychological damage caused by language can be immense, especially when it comes from someone close and dear to us.
When we arrived at his house, his wife was directing several men carrying a coffin.
The color of that coffin was simply inconceivable. is it"I can't bear to see it like this," I whispered, "How about I come over and take a look Even just arranging things requires proper placement and orientation."She gratefully covered her face and...
