Xu Milu obediently stood up and took a few steps forward: "Yes."
With one hand holding a steamed bun, Sun Wukong magically produced two plump, juicy peaches from his robes with the other:
"The Peach Banquet is in a few days. I had planned to take you to heaven for some fun, but you certainly won't be able to go. You and Chenxiang can share these two peaches."
"Has Master eaten yet?"
Xu Milu blinked, refusing to accept the peach: "The Peach Banquet is in a few days, and these peaches..."
Zhen Yuanzi clapped his hands and laughed:
“My dear brother, why wait until the Peach Banquet to eat a peach? Besides, we live as long as heaven and earth. These thousand-year-old peaches will only add a little to our lifespan, and will not be of much use to us.”
Sun Wukong chuckled and, without a word, stuffed two peaches into her arms.
"On a whim, I went to the Heavenly Palace and passed by the Peach Garden, where I had a chat with the local earth god."
On a whim, you happened to be passing by and picked up two peaches, right?
You are strong.
Afraid of being seen by others, Xu Milu quickly put away the peaches. Just as she was about to say something, Sun Wukong waved his hand again, and a cloud carried her down to earth.
"Go away, go away, go play by yourself, don't disturb our game of chess... Stay away from Ling Mountain these few days. If you're going on a long trip, take Chenxiang with you, remember that!"
Immortals have long lifespans, so it's normal for them to play a game of chess for ten or more years; otherwise, there wouldn't be the saying "the man who rotted the axe handle."
How did Sun Wukong know she was going on a long trip?
Why should she bring Chenxiang along?
Xu Milu was somewhat surprised, but before she could ask, she plummeted straight to the clouds.
The starry sky around her swayed like water plants in the water, with sparrow bones following closely behind, protecting her firmly.
In a hazy state, Xu Milu saw a hint of unease in Zhen Yuanzi's otherwise ethereal voice. He stared at the sparrow bone, his face expressionless and solemn as he said:
"Never mention this knife to outsiders again, as it is connected to my Wuzhuang Temple."
As Xu Milu continued to fall, she touched the sparrow bone in her arms and comforted it, "Zhenyuan Daxian was lying to you. A frying pan is actually pretty good, right?"
Bird bone:......
...
...
With her feet firmly on the ground, Xu Milu put away the sparrow bone. Aqing and Daizi, who had been eagerly waiting in the shop, rushed to her side as soon as she landed.
"Milu! It's getting late, do you still want to go play in the mountains?"
"My lady, my lady, where have you gone! Did you go to the Heavenly Palace? My lady is truly amazing!"
Xu Milu looked up. She had only spoken for a short while in the sky, less than fifteen minutes, and yet dusk had already fallen on earth, with the evening glow like waves.
No wonder everyone dreams of becoming an immortal.
"Of course I'll go. I'll go after I go to Sister Yin's house. Ah Qing, Sister Yin is gentle and will definitely like you when she sees you."
"Dai Zi, go and call a rat demon to inform Chen Xiang at the manor outside the city that we're not cooking tonight; we're going to Old Hu's for a feast of mountain delicacies."
Xu Milu patted Dai Zi's head and then went to the back to pack up some alien specialties—it was too late last night, and she was afraid of disturbing Yin Wenjiao's sleep, so she didn't visit.
...
...
Upon seeing Xu Milu return, Yin Wenjiao was overjoyed. She held Xu Milu's hand and looked her over closely, sighing repeatedly.
"Oh, you've lost a lot of weight. These clothes don't fit you anymore. You're back just in time. I went to the East Market the other day and bought a few bolts of cloth."
It's a caravan of fox spirits carrying persimmons, and the foreign silk they brought back from the Uyghurs is so pretty, it's perfect for a young lady like you to wear!
I bought quite a few. I kept a red one for Tuan'er's wedding dress, a purple one for Dai Zi's clothes, and a moon-white one for Liu'er's robe. They're sewn inside the clothes; they're so smooth and comfortable.
"Look, look! This pink and pale yellow fabric is perfect for a girl your age. It's so pleasing to wear."
As she spoke, she held up the fabric and held it up to Xu Milu's body, her expression one of undisguised joy.
To make a wedding dress for Bai Tuan'er?
Xu Milu glanced at the rat spirit serving tea and water and almost couldn't help but laugh: "Then Sister Yin, you'll probably have to wait a long time."
"!"
Upon hearing her name mentioned, Bai Tuan'er looked up warily, but upon seeing Xu Milu, she lowered her head again, wishing she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
For some reason, this rat spirit is incredibly brave. She's usually fearless and gets along well with Mo Xuan and Chen Xiang, and she also gets along with Dai Zi. But when it comes to her, she's like a mouse seeing a cat.
"And this one... Ah Qing... Ah Qing..."
Looking at Aqing's age, Yin Wenjiao was unsure what to call her, but Aqing smiled and replied:
“My age is irrelevant, and my lady need not be so formal. Just call me ‘Aqing’ like Milu does. I’ve heard her say that there is a gentle and beautiful lady named Yin in Chang’an. Now I’ve finally seen the true face of this goddess!”
“Ah Qing, ‘Green as water, the green of reeds, the tranquility of green, the elegance of lotus, a girl seen on the shore,’ this name is really good.”
Yin Wenjiao rarely hit it off with anyone, but now that she had met Aqing, whose appearance was somewhat strange, she didn't care that the other was a demon. She kept pulling her along, and before long, the two were calling each other "sister" and "brother".
Well, the Tripitaka Master has gained another aunt.
Although it was just something Ah Qing said casually, Yin Wenjiao is the Buddha Mother, and strictly speaking, she can also be considered a Bodhisattva.
Xu Milu felt a little guilty when she saw the statue of the Tripitaka Master enshrined to the side.
"Madam Xu, have some tea."
Bai Tuan'er served a cup of tea and said in a soft voice:
"My wife said that Madam Xu doesn't like Lei Cha (pounded tea), so she just added morning dew from plum blossoms to brew a clear tea..."
Her voice was so soft it was like a mosquito's buzz, or like a flame in the wind, about to go out in the next second.
