"This, find a piece of red cloth to sew up. After the child is born, pin it to her underwear. Don't forget to put it back on every time you change clothes. After she is three years old, you can take it off. Find the Ruyi lock that I gave you when you were a child and put it on her.
Girls, just keep them safe. As for wealth, they are born with it, so there is no need to ask for it. But Xixi, remember, this child cannot marry into a wealthy family. There is a lonely star in her marriage. We will see how it changes in the future, it is hard to say now."
Nanxi took it carefully and nodded, "Thank you, uncle."

"Then I'm not an old monster?"
"Monsters only start to grow up after 300 years old, and you are just starting out. Live well and be our ancestor..."
