Chapter 131: The aggrieved Nezha "Sister, why are you...
"Sister, why do you always hold this mirror? And you like talking to it."
Nezha has long been curious about the gorgeous target mirror in her hand, but his height is too low, and he cannot see the mirror even if he stands on tiptoe.
Fu Li held up the mirror and shook it gently, raising an eyebrow. "This is my magic weapon, so of course I have to use it every day."
Of course there are other reasons.
Lingzhuzi was too tall, and whenever they stood close to each other, Fuli had to look up at him.
She didn't think anything of it at the time, but now that her heights were reversed, Lingzhuzi had become little Nezha. Every time she saw her using the mirror to communicate with the outside world, she would crane her neck and stand on tiptoe to look up. Fuli suddenly felt refreshed.
——Haha, you have come to this day!
As for Nezha, his height will return to the height he had when he was Lingzhuzi, so Fuli will not be considered for the time being.
Anyway, he will grow taller sooner or later, so of course we should enjoy the benefits of height while he is still young.
The young Nezha was unaware of her evil taste; he simply became more curious about the mirror.
At this moment, there was a "ding-ling" sound, and Nezha knew that his sister was going to talk to the mirror again.
But this time he guessed wrong. Fu Li just stared at the mirror for a moment, a look of confusion flashed across her face, then she squatted down and said to him, "I have something to do at home, so I have to go back first."
Of course, before squatting down, she had put the mirror away, absolutely not letting Nezha see it.
Nezha was still feeling disappointed when he heard the news that she was leaving. Tears welled up in his eyes and he said nothing. He just looked at her with tearful eyes, silently accusing her.
This is much worse than being unreasonable. Even though Fu Li knows that he is a green tea girl, she can't withstand this trick of his.
"I'm not lying to you. I really have something to do. I'll go back and come back after I finish it."
"I'll bring you something delicious when I come back, okay?"
"How about I kiss you? Or you kiss me."
Nezha didn't even need to use the second move. As long as he continued to launch the "Tears Sparkling" attack, Fu Li would be defeated step by step and unknowingly signed an unequal treaty.
"I don't want any delicious food, and I don't want you to kiss me." Nezha sniffed, his eyebrows and eyes turned red. "I just want you to come back safely."
Fu Li sighed softly, hugged him tightly, and promised, "Okay."
After discussing with Nezha, she carried him to find Yin Hua, told her that she was going to leave temporarily, and handed Nezha over to her safely.
Yin Hua held his son in his arms and asked, "Is your matter urgent? If not, please wait for half a day while I prepare some local specialties for you to take back and also to reward your family members on the Immortal Mountain."
Fu Li said hurriedly, "That's not necessary. I have to go and come back quickly, otherwise someone will cause a flood."
As she spoke, she looked at Nezha with a half-smile, which made Nezha so embarrassed that he hid in his mother's arms. The two unscrupulous adults laughed.
"Madam, Nezha, I'm leaving now."
She bowed and disappeared the next moment.
Yin Hua patted his son on the butt and reminded him, "Okay, don't be shy, the real person has left."
Nezha clung to her embrace and refused to come out, saying stubbornly, "I'm not shy!"
Yin Hua just found it funny and said jokingly, "You're so tough with me, but why are you so good at talking in front of Master Dai?"
"Oh, mother!" Nezha suddenly raised his head, looking very embarrassed and angry. If Yin Hua teased him again, he would definitely get anxious.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more, okay? Really, you're so young and you already know how to save face."
At this time, Li Jing strode in. Seeing Nezha return at this hour, he couldn't help but frown and asked sternly, "get out of class is over so early? Did you make Master Dai angry?"
Nezha snorted and pouted unhappily: "I didn't!"
Li Jing said, "Master Dai is always punctual and trustworthy. She has arranged time for teaching and playing. If you didn't offend her by being naughty, then you must have skipped class without permission."
This time, even Yin Hua's expression changed. He said unhappily, "Mr. Nan, how can you condemn Nezha without even hearing his explanation? Master Dai had something to do at home today, so he sent Nezha back early to take care of some personal matters."
Nezha was so aggrieved that his eyes were filled with tears, but he was stubborn and refused to let the tears fall. He stared at Li Jing, wanting an explanation.
Li Jing smiled awkwardly and evaded the question, "So he went home for something. I was saying, Master Dai has always valued Nezha's studies. How could he let him skip classes?"
And then, nothing happened.
He walked to the side room, took off his armor, changed into light casual clothes, and left his wronged son to be comforted by his wife.
Yin Hua, obviously used to this, coaxed Nezha with a very skilled voice, telling him over and over again: "Your father is too concerned about your studies. He's afraid that you'll get naughty and anger the real person. He just can't speak, but he loves you just as much."
In the past, Jinzha and Muzha were both coaxed into good health by their mother in this way.
But Nezha is naturally intelligent, sensitive, and has amazing intuition. He has his own judgment on who is good to him and who is not.
Before he could read, he had only vaguely sensed that his father's attitude toward him was a little strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on why.
But as he read more and more books, understood more and more truths, and Fu Li told him some stories about human nature, Nezha gradually realized that his father did love him, but his love was mixed with jealousy that he himself was not even aware of.
Yes, jealousy, the father is jealous of his son.
This is so ridiculous, I'm afraid no one will believe it if I tell it to others.
Whenever I change a child, I either feel that I am thinking too much, or I PUA myself before realizing that everything is an illusion.
But Nezha is not an ordinary child, and Fu Li, who teaches him, is not an ordinary person either.
As someone who has been surfing the Internet for many years and has witnessed the existence of all kinds of strange humanoid creatures, Fu Li never dares to underestimate the evil of human nature, nor will she prevent Nezha from understanding the evil of human nature in order to reduce the killing.
She firmly believed that correct guidance, rather than blindly concealing the truth, would help Nezha understand the weight and fragility of life.
Nezha nestled in Yin Hua's arms, listening to his mother's gentle comfort, and remained silent.
He knew that his mother truly loved him, and he also knew that if he revealed Li Jing's feelings, his mother would be the one who suffered the most.
But if he was asked to go against his conscience and agree with what his mother said, he couldn't do it.
So he could only remain silent, close his eyes and lean against his mother's chest, listening to the regular heartbeat and forcing himself to fall asleep.
When there was no more movement outside, Li Jing tiptoed out, glanced at Nezha, and silently asked his wife, "Is he asleep?"
Yin Hua nodded slightly, carried Nezha into the inner room and placed him down.
The maids had already brought in dinner: a plate of roast meat, two plates of vegetables, a large bowl of broth, and a pot of corn rice.
There are two kinds of meat sauce and one kind of bean sauce for the meal.
This seemingly simple diet was already the standard for the nobility of the era. Ordinary people might not even have a single meal of meat in their entire lives.
Yin Hua complained in a low voice, "How dare you scold Nezha without knowing the truth. This child is sensitive and not as easy to appease as the eldest and second children."
Li Jing said, "I'm just worried that he might become a bad person."
Yin Hua glared at him and said, "Don't do this again in the future. Be careful that your son won't be close to you when he grows up."
"He dares?" Li Jing glared. "I'm his biological father, so why can't I say a few words to him?"
"Keep your voice down and don't wake the child." Yin Hua subconsciously glanced into the inner room, then listened carefully. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard no sound.
Knowing that Li Jing wouldn't listen, she simply stopped talking and served him a bowl of corn rice, urging him, "Alright, eat quickly."
The couple then ate quietly.
Nezha in the inner room had already opened his eyes and was staring blankly at the ceiling of the tent, but did not make any sound.
He didn't sleep on the couch popular in the Central Plains, but on a bed that came from Shuzhong. Thinking of what Yin Hua said, Fu Li might also be from Shuzhong, he couldn't help but wonder: Sister said she was going home to take care of personal matters. Did she go back to Shuzhong?
=====
The Fu Li that Nezha was thinking about was not in Shuzhong, but in Kunlun.
Previously, she received a message from Yuanshi Tianzun, asking her to put aside what she was doing and go to Kunlun Mountain to meet him.
Fu Li didn't understand why, but since Second Master had summoned her, how could she dare to neglect him? After bidding farewell to the Li family, she immediately headed for Kunlun Mountain.
To show her respect, she stopped her cloud at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, used her magical power of "shrinking the earth into an inch", and walked up the mountain on foot.
The White Crane Child had already been waiting for her halfway up the mountain. Seeing her approaching with the speed of a star, he hurried forward and bowed, "Baihe greets Senior Sister. The Master has been waiting for a long time. Please follow me, Senior Sister."
Fu Li nodded slightly: "Thank you, Junior Brother Baihe."
She pulled out a handful of Penglai Island's specialty fruit from her sleeve and stuffed it directly into the White Crane Boy's hand. She smiled and said, "There's nothing special about this fruit, it just tastes really good. Junior Brother, enjoy it."
As a boy under the sage, Baihe Tong had no shortage of magic weapons or elixirs, and ordinary treasures were not valued by others. On the contrary, Fuli felt that the delicious fruit was still thinking of him, which made him smile.
"Thank you, Senior Sister."
Fu Li smiled and said, "If you have time in the future, you can take your friends to Penglai to play. Although the spiritual energy there is not as strong as Kunlun, it still has some unique scenery."
The White Crane Boy smiled and said, "Actually, I've had this idea for a long time, but I didn't have Senior Sister's permission, so I couldn't disturb her rashly."
"What are you talking about?" Fu Li gave him a look of reproach. "We're all family, why bother with all that nonsense? As long as you're willing to come, it means you care about me. I'm so happy. How can you call me a bother?"
"It's my fault. Senior sister, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time." Baihe Tongzi's smile became even brighter.
Fu Li smiled cheerfully, pointed at him and said, "It's been a few years since we last met, and you seem to be more talkative than before."
The White Crane Boy was a little embarrassed and whispered, "After watching the live broadcasts of Mount Emei for a long time, even the dumbest person can learn a thing or two."
"Hahahahaha..." Fu Li laughed for a while and asked, "Oh, right, I was just about to ask you, do you know why the Second Master came to see me?"
The White Crane Boy shook his head at first, then suddenly remembered something: "Oh right, just before Senior Sister came, two people came down the mountain to seek my master's help. The master didn't say whether to meet them or not, but directly threw them into the Heart Refining Secret Realm. Perhaps, it has something to do with these two people."
Fu Li nodded, and although still confused, she thanked the White Crane Boy.
