After Jiao'er returned, I estimated the time and had You write down the decree of bestowing marriage and send it to the barbarian family.
The date of the arranged marriage is still some time away, so I can let my darling go on a trip with me before the wedding, which can be considered a pre-wedding bachelorette trip.
However, we must wait until Jiao'er has calmed down her father before we can take her to play in the mortal world.
I'm staying in the palace, so I don't know how Jiao'er is doing at home, but with You by my side, I'm not worried at all.
"You, how are Jiao'er and her father doing now?" This is the umpteenth time I've asked this question.
“Manjiao’er has already comforted her father, but he is still sad. Manjiao’er is trying to comfort him.”
"I see."
I don't want to keep asking You, but I don't know the situation, so I can only keep asking You.
At this rate, my daughter should be able to come to see me soon.
I had someone secretly deliver a letter to Jiao'er, which was about this trip to the mortal realm.
I waited for my beloved daughter in the palace for another day or two, and now there are less than ten days left until her wedding day.
Why isn't my baby well yet?
"You, is Jiao'er's father still heartbroken?" I couldn't help but ask You again.
These past few days, I've learned that the seemingly resolute Manchester City lord is actually a crybaby in private; he's been crying non-stop these past few days.
I can hardly imagine what the Manchester City Lord looks like, crying his eyes out at home. I wonder who his daughter took after to have such a temperament.
“Manjiao’er is already on her way to the palace.”
"Really?" I stared wide-eyed, unable to believe it. I had waited for two whole days, and finally my beloved daughter was here.
"Hmm." You nodded helplessly at me.
When I heard You say that, I ran happily to the window and gazed at Jiao'er's figure.
I don't know how long I waited, but I finally saw my daughter on the shore.
"Jiao'er!" I shouted, frantically waving to Jiao'er.
Manjiao looked up and saw me. She smiled slightly at me and quickened her pace.
Jiao'er immediately apologized to me, "I'm sorry, I've been at home with my father. Have I been keeping you company?"
"It's alright, it's alright. You're getting married, so it's right for you to stay home and keep your father company."
"My darling, are you ready?"
"Yes, I'm ready." Jiao'er nodded solemnly, her eyes filled with undisguised excitement.
Man Jiao'er has never been to the mortal realm, but recently there have been more and more legends about the mortal realm in the Abyss. Many ministers in the court have been able to come to the mortal realm with You's help, and those few are the envy of everyone in the Abyss.
“You.” I tugged at You’s sleeve, and You instantly understood what I meant, raising her head slightly and nodding at me.
I knew You had already taken precautions for Jiao'er. "Let's go."
You pulled me along, and I pulled Jiao'er along. The next second, we appeared in our mortal home.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I heard the sound of barking.
"Bai Xue?" I let go of Jiao'er and You's hands and ran towards the source of the voice. I hadn't seen Bai Xue for several days and I missed him.
When Bai Xue saw me, she excitedly went up to me, circled around me, and wagged her tail wildly.
I picked up Snow White and patted her belly. Hmm, she was round and plump, she really wasn't hungry. In fact, after not seeing her for a few days, I felt that Snow White had gained quite a bit of weight.
Now it looks like a little ball of flesh.
Jiao'er stared wide-eyed at the room, then carefully moved step by step in front of me. "Is this the mortal realm?"
I nodded. "Yes." I glanced out the window; it was dusk.
"Look!" I pointed to the window for Jiao'er to see, then put Bai Xue on the ground and pulled Jiao'er out the door.
Fortunately, the villa I bought has a large lawn in front of it, enough for the two of us and a dog to run around in.
Jiao'er stood on the grass, staring at the sky in utter astonishment, and murmured to herself, "So beautiful."
Such scenery does not exist in the abyss; the sky above the abyss is always a deep, dark expanse.
The setting sun in the west dyed the entire sky orange, its glow stretching for miles.
I lay on the grass playing with the snow, and I figured I'd be watching Jiao'er for a long time.
As I guessed, I lay down on the grass and drifted off to sleep. When I opened my eyes again, Jiao'er was still looking at the sky.
My goodness, how long has Jiao'er been watching?
It was afternoon when I went to sleep, and now the sky, which was orange, has turned completely black, but it's not the same as the sky in the abyss. In the abyss, the sky is pitch black, and you can't see anything.
Although the night sky on earth is also pitch black, the radiant and gentle moon and the stars that fill the sky are things that the abyss does not have.
Jiao'er gazed at the starry sky and the moon, lost in thought.
I sniffed. I realized that my daughter could look at the sky all day long.
"Jiao'er, stop looking and go inside to rest," I said, tugging at Jiao'er's sleeve.
Jiao'er shook her head, "You go in, I'll take another look."
"Alright." Looking at Jiao'er's expression, I stopped refusing and let her see if she wanted to.
I took Bai Xue into the house.
“Jiao’er can look at the sky all day long,” I said to You as soon as I entered the door.
You responded softly, "Mmm."
I suddenly realized that many ministers from the Abyss also came to the mortal realm. Were they like this when they first came? If so, how can they do things for You?
"You, were your subordinates like this when they first came to the mortal realm?"
You glanced at Man Jiao'er in the courtyard and shook her head, "They wouldn't dare."
"Dare not?" I thought of how You usually faced the ministers, and I shuddered. That's true.
Jiao'er stood in the yard the whole time, while You and I were in the kitchen making food. You was the one doing most of the cooking, and I was helping out.
Soon, a table full of steaming hot dishes was served.
Since today is Jiao'er's first time in the human world, I asked You to prepare a more lavish meal. At first, You was unwilling, saying that she didn't want anyone other than me to eat the dishes she made.
I held You and comforted her for a long time before she finally cooked a lot of dishes.
The world is so convenient these days! You can buy groceries on your phone without even leaving home. It feels almost like magic.
"Jiao'er." After finishing cooking, I stood at the door and called to Jiao'er, who was standing in the yard, "Jiao'er, dinner is ready."
"I won't eat." Jiao'er shook her head, still gazing at the starry sky with rapt attention.
I shook my head helplessly, took a few steps forward and pulled Jiao'er along, "How can you not eat? This was specially made for you by You."
"You did this for me?" Jiao'er tilted her head and looked at me, her eyes full of distrust.
"Yes." I nodded, lying without blushing.
"Let's go quickly. Considering this is your first time in the mortal realm, don't you want to taste the differences between mortal ingredients and those from the abyss?"
As soon as I said that, it was exactly what Jiao'er wanted to hear. Her eyes lit up and she agreed.
I took my seat with my daughter, and the last dish of the meal was finished.
Let's eat! I picked up my chopsticks and began to eat happily. Jiao'er often hangs out with me, so she's not as afraid of You as the others in the Abyss.
