Chapter 540: Straight Ball, Scared Herself Away
Behind me, there were laughter and cheers, and firecrackers and fireworks were constantly ringing.
Bai Yu turned the wooden box upside down and used it as a stool. After sitting down, he spread a piece of his clothes on the bottom of another wooden box and patted it to signal Tianbao to sit down.
Tian Bao's mouth twitched slightly, "I'm not that afraid of dirt."
"I just don't want you to get your clothes dirty." Bai Yu smiled and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
On the night of the first day of the new year, the wind and snow continued. The snowflakes were as dense as feathers, and were blocked by the eaves outside the house. They looked somewhat gentle under the moonlight.
"These two wooden boxes were used by you to plant things in order to verify the efficacy of the stream water. You and I each took care of the crops in one box, and I carved the words on them." Thinking back to the past, Bai Yu's eyes became more gentle, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up, revealing a smile.
Tianbao's eyes passed over the smile on his face, and she looked up at Xueyue, "I can't remember. What stream? Where did you get it from?"
"It's from your secret space, a magical place visible only to you. There's an inexhaustible stream of water, endless medicinal herbs, and, yes, endless pears." Bai Yu's smile widened, and he winked at Tian Bao coquettishly. "You've only mentioned that place to me."
“…” Tianbao also turned his head to look at him, his eyes full of confusion and his head full of question marks.
These sounded like fairy tales from a storybook, but she believed that Bai Yu would not lie to her.
"That place can absorb all dead things. You once placed Wang Bai, Mammy Lu, and Quartz there to nourish them. Mammy was also able to come back to life because of this..."
A young man's voice was heard in his ears. Tianbao touched his head and looked at his hands, feeling more and more magical.
Then he stared at a small stone at his feet and said, "Collect!"
No response.
After trying several times, the pebble remained in the same place.
Tianbao, “…”
"Two years ago, you pushed your abilities to the limit in order to save someone. Perhaps it's because you overexerted yourself, or perhaps it's because you lost your memory, so you can't use that space anymore for the time being."
"Maybe it can't be used anymore?"
"So what?" The young man's voice was soft and steady, with a reassuring smile. "Having it is a good thing, but not having it is no pity. Whether there is space or not, you are still you. As long as you are at peace."
Tianbao turned her head again, met the young man's eyes reflected in the moonlight, and asked, "Everyone calls me Tianbao, why do you call me Jiuer?"
Hearing this, Bai Yu's eyes turned deep and he stared at her intently, "I already told you the answer before you lost your memory. If you want to know, just remember what happened before... Jiuer."
Jiuer called out in a gentle and tender voice, very low and soft.
Tian Bao felt that the soft call was deafening. She stared with her eyes wide open, her heart beating like thunder. "...Do you like me?"
"yes."
The next moment, the space above the box next to Bai Yu was empty, and the woman disappeared, leaving only the hem of his clothes spread out on it, with a few messy folds on it.
The right rear window behind me slammed shut.
Bai Yu, "..."
Bai Yu, "..."
After a moment's silence, a joyful laugh escaped from his mouth and lasted for a long time.
The straight ball that Tianbao hit scared herself away.
The room to the right of the vegetable garden is Tianbao's bedroom.
There was no light in the room, it was pitch black, and with the windows closed, it was pitch dark.
In the main room across the door, the elders were talking and laughing.
Outside the window, the joyful laughter of young people could be heard.
Tianbao walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, like an ant on a hot pan, with steam coming out of his whole body.
What a shame! What a shame!
My brain just went blank. I rushed back to my room and closed the window before I realized why she ran away?!
Fleeing without fighting is definitely not something Su Tianbao would do!
But it’s impossible to go out again, wouldn’t that be even more embarrassing?
...What the hell is Bai Yu laughing at?
Tsk!
…
The next morning, Tianbao woke up to the noise as usual.
He got out of bed with dark circles under his eyes, and before going out, he picked up the bronze mirror on the table and looked at himself for the first time.
The scars on her face are still there. Although they have improved a lot after applying medicine, she is still an ugly girl.
"I can even say I like this face." Tian Bao threw the bronze mirror away, shook his head and complained, "Tsk, that's too strong!"
The brazier in the main room was already burning brightly.
All the elders and juniors in the family were present, and even Nian Nian Sui Sui were running around, clamoring for roasted glutinous rice cakes.
Tianbao is the last one to get up.
"Sister, go wash up first. Bing'er will bake some rice cakes for you and you can eat them later!" Bing'er's eyes lit up when she saw her, and the smile on her jade-white face became even brighter.
Tian Bao rubbed her head and when he was about to go to the kitchen, he stopped and put his face in front of Bing'er, "Bing'er, I have so many scars on my face, are you scared when you see them?"
"Don't worry! Whether or not there's a scar on your face, Bing'er likes you the most! It's not your face that I like, that's too superficial!"
Join in the fun every year, "I love my sister the most!"
Tianbao's heart was filled with dense bubbles, and he felt extremely comfortable. The corners of his mouth curled up, "What a silly child."
Everyone: “…”
There were bursts of muffled laughter.
Grandma Su laughed and said, "You are so old-fashioned. You are still a child yourself."
Sweet baby's tight feet.
That's not possible, she is twenty-three years old.
The elders laughed for a while, then their smiles faded and they looked at the handsome young man sitting quietly in a corner with a faint smile, "A-Li, are you leaving today?"
Wei Li hummed, "I've been away for so long this time, and all the affairs of the court have been handled by Elder Gan and Uncle Ziyi. Now that I've settled down, it's time to go back."
Old Man Su nodded and said, "It's time to go back. You have your responsibilities and are responsible for the people of this country. Go back and don't worry about us."
"Your burden is the heaviest. Grandpa and grandma can't help you much... Take care of yourself. No matter how busy you are, remember to eat. Xiaowen said that when you're busy, you often forget to eat, and you're still reviewing memorials in the middle of the night worrying about state affairs."
"Auntie is going to pack your things. I'll bring you some of our homemade sun-dried large-leaf tea and rice cakes. They're all your favorites."
"I've prepared a bag of tonic pills made by my aunt for you. Take them with you. There are imperial physicians in the palace, and although you don't need these tonics, they are also a token of my aunt's kindness. The pills are made using Du Lao's recipe, and they are very effective."
"Brother A-li, give me a hug! You're leaving soon, so give me more hugs year after year!"
Wei Li laughed and held Niannian Suisui on his lap.
I'm leaving soon, so I'm naturally reluctant to leave.
However, the deep concern and understanding of his family will also make him move forward more determined.
He shoulders the responsibility of the well-being of the people of a country, and he is not allowed to be willful when making choices between gains and losses.
Since this is the case, he will be a good emperor who works hard to govern the country.
Let my grandparents see the prosperous era he created with their own eyes during their lifetime.
Only then will you live up to your kindness and love.
