Old stuff
t down... These days I haven't been home, so I don't know if my disciples have neglected our honored guest.""Uncle, you're too polite~~ You and I are the same age. We get along really well. Besides, w...The scent of rouge.
This is something we've smelled since yesterday, my brother still has a faint scent after taking a shower.
But today I can't smell it anymore. Miss Lin and I are so close to him, there's no way I wouldn't be able to smell it.
But Bai Wu Chang suddenly said this, he must have smelled something amiss.
They say that wine is fragrant because it's aged, but does the aftertaste of old rouge also become so strong just because it has gone rancid and moldy
My brother said incomprehensibly: “I just tidied up the storeroom, where did the smell of rouge come from Those old lipsticks have gone bad. I accidentally rubbed some on my hand yesterday, and it made Qin'er misunderstand. What the heck is this stuff”
Jiang Qiyun glanced at me, and I nodded. "So I went through that pile of things last night to see if there was anything unusual. I didn't find anything out of the ordinary, just exceptionally fragrant, so fragrant it made my nose sting... You even asked me where the rouge scent came from."
"Let me take a look back and see what it is," Jiang Qiyun said, and that ended the topic. The real star of the show today wasn't us anyway.
Two babies slept in a double stroller, surrounded by a mountain of gifts.
The gifts from the underworld are so unique. Looking at the little clothes and swaddling cloths that Meng Shu and the others made, either Tai Chi diagrams or double fish playing in water, it’s very evocative.
I imagined the baby wearing a little outfit, with two Tai Chi symbols on the sleeves... Oh my gosh, it would be too cute.
Lin Yanqin bought a pair of gold locks that were heavy. I felt a little embarrassed, and my brother was also reprimanding her in a low voice, saying that it was difficult to repay favors for such expensive gifts.
"...But I don't know what to give to express my feelings." She murmured softly.
I laughed and said, "How about you give me a nephew and niece"
She blushed, and my brother glared at me fiercely—knowing full well you shouldn't say things like that, this is playing with fire!
I bit my lip and smirked, I was truly happy today. The past year had been spent in anxiety, worry, and apprehension almost constantly. Now, I felt a sense of tranquility as if time had stood still.
I can set goals and start taking steps to determine my own path.
And more and more people are gathering around, so you won't feel isolated.
The full moon banquet was relatively subdued. No one dared to cause trouble in front of Jiang Qiyun, not even a loud noise.
After the dinner party, Miss Lin went home first. Dabao drove Dad and grandma back home with the baby to sleep. My brother and I stayed behind to check out with the hotel staff.
I clutched my bag and ducked into the restroom of the banquet hall. Jiang Qiyun followed, locking the door behind him.
"What are you doing" I glared at him.
He reached out to help me undo the hooks and zipper on my back. “That must have been hard Really painful”
So he knew all along…
It's really not easy being a breastfeeding mother. To ensure the safest food for her child, she has to take her breast pump everywhere she goes.
He brushed lightly against my ear, whispering, "Such a milky scent. Both of those little ones have it too."
"Or what Isn't that what a baby implies, a milky scent"
Jiang Qiyun frowned as I poured out almost two hundred milliliters, frowning and saying, “Just pour it out like that”
"Well, what else can we do!" I laughed and cried. "I think it's a waste too, but this is the time when there's the most, and Yu Gui and You Nan can't drink that much anyway."
He let out a soft sigh and said, “The bodies of Yin-Yang Er Qi are both fragile and troublesome, but they can miraculously give birth to so many wonderful things.”
"Hmph... Sorry, it's just that you're so fragile and troublesome." I put the breast pump away.
My phone was vibrating nonstop. I thought it was my brother urging me to leave, but when I looked, it was a call from home.
What's wrong
I picked up the phone, and a heavy, gruff voice came through. It was the Wolf Demon, he wasn't fully recovered yet.
"Little Uncle, the bell at home rang."
Bell
Are you talking about the copper bell hanging in the courtyard
This is how our family deals with negative energies. Some negative energies need to be exposed to sunlight to dispel the stagnant energy. We tie red strings in a designated area and hang small bells in the middle.
If there is resentment or negative energy clashing, the small bell will ring.
Could it be that something in that pile of junk is restless Or has something been attracted to my house and wants to barge in
To minimize the influence of the Underworld's power on the mortal world, Jiang Qiyun withdrew the surrounding Yin soldiers.
Now the danger has decreased a lot, besides, what kind of place is my home
A rather ordinary three-story building, not even insects, snakes, rats, or ants dared to approach it. Even mosquitoes were scarce on summer nights.
All the people living in the house were very kind, last time that little ghost came in, he kept trying to run away, like he had entered a haunted house, scared and flustered.
What kind of nosy thing would come to my house
Even without vengeful spirits lurking outside, the house is full of troublesome ancestors.
Old Mrs. Wu is a magical existence. Last time Jiang Qiyun said she had given birth to a divine child, adding at least twenty years of good fortune and longevity, Old Mrs. Wu continued to enjoy her peaceful life with contentment. The ferocious black cat Ling continued to guard her.
Besides, there's also the lynx cub, Xiao Nie. It's a martial arts master with its fleshly body. Right now, it's sleeping in its den too. What kind of thing dares to cause trouble
"Don't be afraid, we're coming back now and we packed a lot of snacks for you." I comforted him over the phone.
Tan Lang bowed and said, "Thank you, little uncle. It's best to return soon, that bell rang more than once."
"Okay," I replied, and immediately set off for home.
Jiang Qiyun decided to return to the underworld first. He felt it was inconvenient to incarnate as a lotus, and we didn't force him to stay. After my brother settled the bill, we immediately drove home.
My dad has arrived, he's checking around the yard, but hasn't found anything unusual.
My brother moved in a folding ladder, the largest one, with eight red ropes, hanging in the center of the courtyard.
He took down the copper bell and examined it, but there was no unusual aura.
"Why do I have a bad feeling about this" My brother continued to hang the bell.
I'm a little uneasy too: "Could it be that old rouge that's the problem But I didn't feel anything wrong when I checked it yesterday..."
"What problems can old rouge have I've heard all sorts of things, but I've never heard that rouge lipstick and eyebrow pencils can become spirits!"
"Old things should have some spirit, right…" I bent down to sift through the boxes, pulling out that carved vanity and planning to show it to Jiang Qiyun later.
My older brother crossed his arms and said, “Our house is like the Ghost Gate for spirits and monsters. Who in their right mind would want to come here”
As soon as his voice fell, a fragrant wind shook the bell above his head.
Ring ring…
A faint bell rang in the night wind. Tian Zun, the Supreme Celestial Emperor of High Heaven and Great Mercy, became the most revered Taoist deity among folk believers.The Jade Emperor existed before the beginning of time, being a manife...
