Four Sons and One Daughter: No One to Pay Respects at the Grave, But the Old Mother Has No Mercy

"Mom, aren't you being too biased toward Eldest Brother? Dividing the family property now, he benefits the most.

"Mom, I want that piece of land by Shuichuan. You promised it to m...

Chapter 1242 A Joyful and Harmonious Moment

ten years……

Will feelings definitely rekindle after ten years?

Even if the threads of affection grow back, will Xie Zheng definitely be able to regain his memories?

Most importantly, is Xie Zheng willing to give it a try?

Also, is this folk remedy effective?

If it's an extremely rare and difficult-to-obtain medicinal herb, like something like heart's blood, where would she get it?

"No, it's not that difficult. This folk remedy requires hearth soil, rootless water, two ounces of moss, and one horsebit. Use the Samadhi True Fire to refine the first three ingredients and consume them. Use the horsebit to perform acupuncture on a specific acupoint on the first and fifteenth of each month for seven days."

It contains all five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

It sounds plausible.

But Song Chunxue was puzzled, "A certain acupoint? This acupoint is very special, do I need to needle it myself?"

Qi Yun pondered for a moment, "No, you need to do the acupuncture. You could have easily done those acupuncture points in the past, but Lord Xie might not be willing to let you do them now."

Song Chunxue remained silent for a long time before saying, "Let's forget it. I don't think forgetting him might be a bad thing."

Qi Yun sighed, "You could say that."

"Don't tell him that he's going back in a few days. His daughter is in the capital, and his roots are in the capital. Don't bother him."

Outside the door, the Moon-Accompanying Immortal seemed lost in thought.

In the evening, Hongying's three children ran to the fort.

"Grandma, what are you busy with?"

"What is Grandma making? It smells so good."

"Hmm, Grandma's still a little sore, did you add sugar?"

The three children stood side by side by the stove. They had grown up, and the eldest was now as tall as Song Chunxue.

"It tastes especially good with brown sugar, and there's also one with honey. I only fried a small bowl because it burns too easily. If you like it, I'll make more for you tomorrow." Song Chunxue said, taking the bowl that was covered behind the stove and lifting the cutting board to see that there was only half a bowl left.

It must have been eaten by Qi Yun.

"Give it to the three of us, Grandma, you count and divide it. That's how my mother and my third aunt divided it, and they said it's fair." Xiao Xu handed the bowl to Song Chunxue. "It smells delicious, and there are eggs in it?"

Song Chunxue nodded and distributed the steamed buns to them very fairly, eight apricot-sized buns for each person.

She ate the last one herself.

Qi Yun walked in and found that he had finished all the food he had been enjoying.

But he didn't say anything; he just squatted down and continued to tend the fire.

"Want some more?" Song Chunxue asked him.

Qi Yun felt embarrassed to take the food from the child, and whispered, "I thought you left it for me, so I secretly ate half of it. I'll make some more later, and you can teach me."

"Okay, then you can give it a try." Song Chunxue prepared the necessary ingredients for him. "Just knead it into a ball, let it rest, and knead the honey evenly."

"Okay, sure!" Qi Yun stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and started working. "You guys really love eating grains. Even I, who loves meat, find it delicious now."

Xiujuan asked curiously, "So you used to only eat meat? No wonder you're so tall."

Qi Yun laughed and ruffled her hair. "It's because you guys are too short. I've bumped my head on this kitchen door three times already. Each time it made me cry and almost made me lose control of my bladder from the pain."

Xiujuan stood shyly behind Song Chunxue, saying, "Men and women should not touch each other."

"Oh right, I almost forgot, you guys have quite a few rules." Qi Yun quickly moved a little further away. "You can't let other men touch you from now on, unless you get married."

"Can I marry you? You're the prettiest one."

"..." The people in the room were suddenly stunned, staring at each other in disbelief.

Seeing everyone's strong reaction, Xiujuan's face suddenly turned red. "I was just talking nonsense."

Before she could finish speaking, she had already run to the yard.

Song Chunxue watched her retreating figure, thinking that Xiujuan was already eleven years old and must know something.

Qi Yun is indeed outstanding in appearance, so it's reasonable for a young girl to say that.

But Qi Yun can't be allowed to keep appearing in front of Xiu Juan, otherwise she'll be too picky and won't be able to get married in the future.

"Master, I will definitely be careful in the future and will never lead the little girl astray." Qi Yun, wearing an apron, stood by the stove and raised his hand to swear.

"Everyone loves beauty, what's there to be afraid of? I'll talk to Xiujuan." Song Chunxue poured the cooled meat into a porcelain jar, and once it solidified, she could put it into her storage ring.

There were three small porcelain jars in total, one for each of the three brothers.

As for the eldest brother, I'll just buy him half a pig later; you can't usually buy meat in the countryside.

She felt as if she had returned to the days before and after the Lunar New Year, when she would be busy around the stove, and by the time dinner was ready, it was already dark.

The children didn't want to go back, so Song Chunxue didn't let them go back and gave each of them a bowl of jiaotuan (a type of porridge).

In the heat of autumn, a bowl of jiangshui jiaotuan (a type of glutinous rice noodle soup) can make your stomach feel lighter.

The Moon-Accompanying Immortal looked at the porridge with chive oil, silently scooped out the chive oil with a spoon, and poured it into Song Chunxue's bowl.

I don't eat spicy food.

"Oh, I forgot. I'm sorry, Master. You don't eat chili oil." Song Chunxue stood up. "I'll ladle you a fresh bowl."

Just then, Xie Zheng came in from outside.

A wolfhound followed behind him, very affectionately wagging its tail and constantly jumping on him.

Xie Zheng's clothes were covered in dog paw prints.

"Don't spoil it. Dogs are dirty and will eat anything." Song Chunxue raised her hand and scare it twice. The wolfhound obediently went outside.

But dogs, like children, love to join in the fun, so they lay on the platform outside, panting and listening to them chat and eat.

"It looks pretty clean." Xie Zheng raised his hand and called out twice. The dog stood up enthusiastically and wagged its tail, but because of Song Chunxue's gaze, it had no choice but to obediently sit back down.

Qi Yun ate half a bowl of jiaotuan and was full; he didn't like eating such coarse grains.

Meat is still the best. He ate a lot in the afternoon and planned to meditate and digest it in the evening.

Looking at his master's three well-behaved and sensible grandchildren, Qi Yun couldn't help but think that if he were to find a human or a fox to have children with in the future...

P.S.: Seeing you all asking me to update before midnight is so sweet, and I feel a bit ashamed. Yesterday, the house started leaking. It's on the top floor of the old house, right above the bed, so it's unbearable to live there anymore. I need to find a new place, which caused a slight delay.

That's right, I'm from Gansu~ Welcome to escape the summer heat, it feels like winter tonight.
