Chapter 0 Extra Chapter 8 Final Chapter
Song Zijin couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he went over and pulled the man back to their yard by his ears.
"My lady, please be gentle, my ears are about to fall off!" Xiao Linyuan cried.
Song Zijin pushed him into the house and said, "We're about to enter the bridal chamber and you're going to scare your son-in-law. Aren't you afraid that something bad might happen to you?"
"Hmph, if he's no good, just divorce him and marry another one. She can't be worse than me, right? No, I have to send someone to listen. If this guy doesn't work..."
Song Zijin couldn't stand it anymore and simply covered his mouth.
"You old pervert, if Lingling finds out, how will she face the world?"
"Humph, making trouble in the bridal chamber is reasonable."
"Then why didn't anyone make a fuss when we got married?"
"No one should embarrass my wife!"
Song Zijin felt embarrassed and angry. He was almost fifty years old, but the double standard remained unchanged.
She simply ignored him and went to fiddle with the little bellyband her child was wearing.
All four children are married, so at least one baby can be born next year, right?
Xiao Linyuan realized that he had really gone too far this time and quickly came over to please him.
"Don't be angry, my lady. I'm just worried about you. Don't be angry, um..." He deliberately blew air into her ears, attacking her sensitive areas.
Song Zijin couldn't stand his torture anymore and wanted to get up but he grabbed her waist.
"Wife, we haven't had sex for several days~"
"How old are you? Why are you still so clingy?" Song Zijin tried to push him away.
But she accidentally hooked his clothes open.
Xiao Linyuan's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he pounced on the man with a tiger-like move, trapping him under him.
After sleeping in the same bed for so many years, he still likes her shy and gentle moans.
After an in-depth conversation, Xiao Linyuan was exhausted and out of breath.
You can't refuse to accept your old age.
But good physical strength is not enough, skills are more than enough. Mastering various techniques can also make the lady happy.
There was a cat's meow outside the door.
Song Zijin pushed the person away, put on his clothes and walked out the door.
She saw Xuetuanzi sitting at the door, looking at her straight.
Xuetuanzi is old. People in the zoo said that it was the first time they saw a cat live to over 20 years old.
Its fur had lost its luster and had fallen off in several patches, like uncombed dead grass in winter.
Song Zijin squatted down and wanted to pick it up, but it dodged him.
"What's wrong? Don't you recognize me?"
Xuetuanzi meowed, and it was unclear whether he was admitting or denying it.
At this time, Xiao Linyuan also put on his clothes and came out. Xuetuanzi looked at him and meowed.
Then he turned around with difficulty and walked out of the yard, turning back to look at the two of them every few steps.
"Is it trying to take us somewhere?"
"Then let's follow and see."
Xiao Linyuan squatted down and said, "I'll carry you."
Every time after doing it, her legs felt weak and she was afraid she couldn't walk far.
Song Zijin followed suit and climbed onto his still broad and powerful back nimbly.
The night is just right, and the May evening breeze is refreshing and pleasant.
A breeze blew across the mountains, and the foxtail grass made a rustling sound.
The cicadas chirped leisurely and the willow trees swayed gently, everything was just as Song Zijin liked.
Xuetuanzi walked slowly and it took him half an hour to reach the place where the night-blooming cereus was blooming in the deep mountains.
Tonight is the fifteenth night of the lunar month. The moonlight is very bright, shining on the buds of the night-blooming cereus. You can tell at a glance which ones will bloom tonight.
Xiao Linyuan was very surprised, as he had never seen so many night-blooming cereus bloom at once.
Snowball was tired and stopped under a flower bud, sweeping its tail a few times, as if it liked this place very much.
In an instant, Song Zijin understood what it was thinking.
She squatted down and touched its dry fur.
"You want to stay here forever, don't you?"
Snowball meowed.
The man and the cat looked at each other, and Song Zijin's eyes turned red.
She didn't cry when Lingling got married today because she knew that her daughter would never leave her.
But Snowball is about to leave.
She still remembered that the day she picked it up was her first time having a hangover, and she felt pity for it when she saw it trapped in the trap.
In fact, she didn't like cats very much. After picking it up, it was usually Fu Yue and Xiao Linyuan who fed it, but it never disliked her indifference.
Perhaps, it was a messenger sent by God to comfort her.
"Thank you, Snowball."
Snowball meowed, as if shy, and ran away with its tail held high.
Song Zijin did not chase after it, but instead broke off a branch and stuck it under the Epiphyllum tree.
"Maybe you misunderstood?" Xiao Linyuan squatted down and looked at her.
"It's already twenty-three years old. It won't live much longer."
Parting is always sad, let alone parting between life and death.
Song Zijin leaned in Xiao Linyuan's arms, silently shedding tears to the moon.
"People today cannot see the moon of the past, but this moon once shone on the ancients. Humans are truly insignificant, Lingzhi."
"We may be insignificant, but our love is great. For example, I promote laws to improve people's livelihoods, making Dali a better place; you promote medical skills, so that everyone no longer has to worry about seeing a doctor. Zijin, life is worth it.
The snowball has completed its mission, so it has to go back. We all have such a day, but before that, we have done everything we can to make this journey worthwhile.
He tried not to make her sad.
His mother-in-law once said that people will get sick if they are too sad, so he wanted to hit Guihong. After beating him up, he could vent his anger and then he wouldn't be sad anymore.
Young man, it won’t hurt to get beaten up a few times.
Song Zijin's tears gradually stopped.
Yes, she is only 41 years old and in good health. She can obviously live for many years. Why should she start to be sad and upset in the middle of her life?
"Lingzhi, let's go check it out!"
"What?" Xiao Linyuan was a little confused. Why did it come to looking around?
"We've spent the first half of our lives living for others. How about we live for ourselves in the remaining twenty or thirty years?"
Xiao Linyuan understood and nodded with a smile, "I'll listen to you, my lady."
——
One month after the little princess got married, Xiao Linyuan took Song Zijin on the road.
This time, they did not bring Fu Yue Chunsheng with them. They are not young anymore, and now that their son has achieved success, it is time for them to enjoy life with him.
The little princess was not brought along. She and her husband also had their own lives. She could go out and have fun or do something practical for the people. It was up to her.
The two men only brought four guards with them and traveled light.
At dawn, we set off towards the east.
No one knew how many places the emperor and empress dowager had traveled to. All they knew was that they would come back every two or three years to visit their children and their children's children.
One day, while moored on the Shuo River, the Queen Mother suddenly pointed at her reflection in the water and laughed, "They say that green mountains never grow old and love never fades, but our temples are already frosted."
The retired emperor pinned a freshly picked peony in her hair and hugged her tighter.
"Green mountains don't need to grow old, they just need to remember. Every wrinkle of theirs can hold a white hair."
The full text is over.
