"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 1282 Thank you, Auntie!
When she met her master's gaze, Song Chunxue felt a little guilty.
"I secretly used some on the senior female cultivator who came to my door, and also on a child who came to beg for food. I didn't use any on anyone else."
The Moon-Accompanying Immortal nodded, "Don't use it lightly anymore. That thing is extremely precious. Giving it to them would be a waste of its potential."
As he spoke, he took out a jar of ordinary spirit stones and gave it to her.
"Trading one of your pills for this batch will have the same effect on most people."
Song Chunxue accepted a jar of spirit stones, but gave her master a bowl of her own, saying, "I still have some."
The Moon-Accompanying Immortal paused for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh out loud. He turned to look at Zhang Chengxuan and said, "Your junior brother is quite generous."
Song Chunxue guessed that this thing was more valuable than they said.
"I'll have the stubborn donkey take me to look again later. Maybe we can still find him. After all, Master isn't just anyone." Song Chunxue turned her head and looked at the two people fighting in the field, which was almost like wolves fighting each other.
She took a sip of strong tea and said thoughtfully, "I've discovered that everything here is very different from what I remember."
"Naturally. Different perspectives and different abilities lead to different views of everything." The Moon-Accompanying Immortal advised her, "But at this time, you must be especially careful not to rush, take it one step at a time, and cultivate too quickly is not good either."
“Yes, you might as well just honestly farm for half a year, farm properly, and live your leisurely farmer’s life.” Zhang Chengxuan chimed in, “This would be good for both of you, otherwise if you make any big noise during your cultivation, it will attract evil cultivators like those from the ditch.”
Song Chunxue watched the two fighting and rolling down the cliff, and nodded, "Very well, that's exactly what I was thinking."
She wanted to take a break; she really wanted to be a farmer again, completely focused on her work.
But she always felt that the master and apprentice were hiding something from her.
But now she's learned to be smart; she shouldn't be curious or ask about things she shouldn't know, as it won't do her any good.
For the past six months, I've made the most of my time spending time with my older sister and brother.
After they had almost finished drinking the tea, the Moon-Accompanying Immortal went to the ditch and subdued the evil cultivator leader. The creature inside the old Taoist's body was taken away by his senior brother.
"Alright, let's go back. We should head back too." Immortal Banyue shook his head slightly. "Don't take on disciples so casually in the future; it'll only make things harder for me!"
"Okay, I'll remember." She could tell that her master looked a bit haggard lately. After all, taking care of children was nothing compared to the carefree life of an immortal.
“But I can offer some guidance to outer disciples.” Zhang Chengxuan leaned closer to her. “As long as they’re not direct disciples, anything is fine.”
At the time, Song Chunxue didn't understand why her senior brother had said that. Half a month later, she found out.
The two kids who came begging before have come again.
This time, the two of them simply refused to leave.
"Auntie, please take us in. We can do anything."
“Auntie, you must be a hermit! I ate your food the other day, and I floated up in my sleep. The next day, I walked as lightly as a swallow, and I was as tall as my brother.” Xiaodou knelt down and kowtowed. “Please, Auntie, guide me. I promise I won’t cause you any trouble.”
Doudou also knelt on the ground and nodded heavily, "Yes, Auntie, it's fine if you don't take me in, as long as you keep Xiaodou, our whole family will thank you."
As she spoke, DouDou pushed the basket in front of her, "This is our family's old hen, it lays eggs. We have one left for my sister to lay eggs, this one is for you."
Helpless, Song Chunxue said, "Come in and talk."
Fortunately, no one nearby saw it, otherwise they would have started making things up again.
Da Dou and Xiao Dou carried their baskets into the yard and knelt down again.
"Get up. I don't need anyone's help here, and I won't be taking on any apprentices. If you want some food, I can give you some." Song Chunxue pointed to the new house outside. "Let's talk inside."
The stubborn donkey came over chewing on a roasted potato, circled around the soybeans and red beans, and then ran to its own shack to eat potatoes.
He loves the charred skin, and he's very easy to feed.
Doudou and Xiaodou hesitated, after all, their grandfather had said that this time, one of them had to be kept no matter what.
"Eat something first. I just made some noodle soup." Song Chunxue rubbed their heads. "Wait inside, I'll go get it."
A short while later, she came out carrying three bowls of noodles that had been portioned out.
"Eat up, I still have some guokui (a type of flatbread) here. Come on, eat it with the noodle soup."
Seeing that Xiaodou had really grown taller, Song Chunxue thought that she must not use it recklessly in the future, because this would attract the attention of her family.
It's hard for the two children to resist food.
She subtly inquired and confirmed that their family had sent them.
Fortunately, their grandfather was wise and didn't tell anyone.
Xiaodou's height was also covered up with other excuses.
This child is indeed a promising talent for cultivation. The key is that he is still so young, only nine years old. If he starts cultivating now, he will be extraordinary in the future.
However, even outer disciples cannot be accepted casually.
Children's character is very important, so Song Chunxue agreed to let the two of them help chop firewood for three days.
They stayed in the north room that night, but the eldest son arrived the next day.
"Mother, I heard you took in two children, is that true?"
"It's fake. We're just letting them stay one night. After all, they arrived in the evening. What if they get carried away by wolves if they go back at night?"
It was just dawn, and Song Chunxue thought to herself that her boss had probably spent the whole night thinking about how to start the conversation.
She was somewhat displeased.
The eldest brother is being a bit too controlling.
After entering the house, the eldest brother saw the two children, drank some tea, and then left.
"Mom, what I really mean is, if I had to choose one child to stay with you, I would prefer it to be one of my own children."
Upon arriving at the courtyard gate, Jiang Yeming knew his words wouldn't be well-received, so he lowered his head and explained, "I know that cultivation depends on fate, but we shouldn't let good things go to outsiders. I hope my children can be like you."
Song Chunxue smiled, "I know, but cultivation also depends on talent."
Even if his children were talented, she wouldn't teach them.
Ordinary people think of spiritual practice as too simple.
If she's doing well now, capable of fighting and roaming the world, and wants to send her child over to join in the fun, only to take her back when she gets married in the future, what kind of spiritual practice is that?
She didn't have the time to come up with all sorts of ways to take care of their children.
If Xiaodou really has talent, she wouldn't mind helping her.
The younger the child, the higher their comprehension.
"Then I'll bring you honey for the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days."
“No need, I will go to the market.” Song Chunxue said frankly, “I’ve already said, don’t come looking for me unless it’s important. Even if I’m leading people in cultivation, that’s my own business.”
Jiang Yeming's expression was grim. "I understand."
It seems I'd rather get food from the fort than go to the boss.
Back in the house, Da Dou and Xiao Dou stood up, looking anxious.
"Have I caused any trouble for your aunt?"
"No."
Song Chunxue noticed that the floor of the house had been swept clean, the table had been wiped shiny, and even the dishes after meals had been cleaned.
“Then we’ll go back,” Xiaodou said awkwardly, carrying her basket. “My mother is feeling much better, thank you, Auntie.”
"Don't rush off, Xiaodou, sit down. I'll teach you something." Song Chunxue looked at Dadou, "Go outside and sweep the yard for me."
"Great!" Doudou exclaimed happily. "Thank you, Auntie!"
