Chapter 128: Gratitude
Not long after Chen Xue left, she came back and everyone excitedly bowed to her.
There was no other way. If it weren't for Chen Xue's magic, their legs would probably be crippled. If their legs were crippled, then it would mean they were beyond saving.
So, Chen Xue saved their lives.
Not only that, they also felt that Chen Xue had passed this magical skill to them, and they would be able to use it even if they were alone in the future. This was what excited them the most.
This is a magical technique!
It is coveted by countless people, even the emperor of the court.
However, Chen Xue handed it over to them easily, because they were not the kind of people who were ungrateful.
"If you have no place to stay at night, you can dig a snow cave."
Chen Xue said, and then instructed her subordinates to demonstrate, "Be careful to choose a location with thick snow, otherwise it will easily collapse..."
"If possible, you can use branches to reinforce the sides and spread them on the ground as a cushion..."
Chen Xue didn’t know much, but she used to watch survival shows and learned about them herself, so she knew this knowledge.
Although it is not much, it can ensure that these people have a peaceful place to sleep at night.
With Chen Xue showing off her magical skills, everyone naturally did not object to what Chen Xue said, but instead became more excited.
Soon, the servants of the Chen family dug a snow cave, and someone out of curiosity couldn't help but crawl in.
"Hey, it's so warm!"
The man couldn't help but exclaimed, and the others became curious after hearing what he said, "Is this true? Don't lie to me!"
"Why would I lie to you? Just come in and try it and you'll know!"
That person immediately left the snow cave, and the others went in, and then they all exclaimed, "It really is! It's much warmer than outside."
"Okay, stop squeezing it!"
Seeing them like this, Chen Xue quickly interrupted and said, "You can go dig a snow cave yourself."
Seeing that Chen Xue had spoken, they naturally didn't dare to fight anymore, and then went to dig their own snow caves.
"Don't be so close, stay away, or you'll collapse other people's snow caves."
Seeing them huddled together again, Chen Xue couldn't help but remind them again.
Then, she decided to be a good person and asked her men to guide them, otherwise many unlucky people would be buried in the snow in the middle of the night.
Seeing that everything was arranged, Chen Xue turned around and left to continue making her birthday cake.
When the prisoners saw Chen Xue leaving, they all bowed and saw her off respectfully. They were very grateful to Chen Xue in their hearts.
Whether teaching them magic or teaching them how to dig snow caves, it is equivalent to saving their lives.
If we count the time when the Chen family rescued them from the bandits, Chen Xue has saved their lives several times.
Not all of them are cruel and ungrateful. They were just jealous in their hearts before.
But now, knowing that Chen Xue is a disciple of the Kunshan immortal, the difference between his status and theirs is like the difference between the clouds in the sky and the mud on the ground.
If so, and the gap between two people is not big, then the other person will be jealous.
But if the gap between two people is like heaven and earth, and the other person can only look up, then jealousy will not exist, and there will be more envy, worship and admiration.
That is the case today.
Chen Xue was a disciple of an immortal, and his status doomed the gap between them in this life. In addition, Chen Xue taught them immortal arts and how to dig snow caves, so they felt more grateful than jealous.
"Tomorrow is Xiaodie's birthday, so let's make it a big one!"
Chen Xue rolled up her sleeves and said, "Tomorrow I'm going to go on a killing spree, ah, show off my skills and let you guys know what a delicious meal is."
"Oh," Chen's mother was surprised, "Then I must try Xiaoxue's cooking skills!"
Xiaodie next to her was a little flattered, "Miss, I... this... there's no need to make such a big deal. I'm just a maid, and now..."
"No!" Chen Xue interrupted her and hugged her, "We are good sisters and we are all family."
"Besides, how can a birthday be a trivial matter? Everyone only has one birthday each year."
Xiaodie is only sixteen years old, younger than herself, and she was not even an adult in her previous life.
So Chen Xue always treated her like a younger sister.
Xiaodie was deeply moved, tears rolled down her cheeks like pearls, and she vowed to repay the young lady, the master, and the mistress in her life.
"System, redeem my birthday gift package!"
Chen Xue has discovered that as long as there are enough contribution points, anything can be exchanged. She has seen this so-called birthday gift package in the past few days.
The so-called gift packages are actually some birthday supplies, such as birthday candles, balloons, birthday hats, longevity noodles, and even gift boxes for gifts.
Chen Xue sent Xiaodie away and pulled her parents into the room. "Dad, Mom, this is a gift box. Let's use it to put the gift in for Xiaodie."
Seeing the exquisite gift box, Chen's mother's eyes lit up, "Okay, I have to think carefully about what gift to give."
"How about you help me think about it?" Lord Chen said with a headache, "I haven't given many gifts, especially to other women..."
"Think for yourself!" Mother Chen glared at him. "Xiaodie has contributed so much to our family, how can you treat her so perfunctorily?"
"I……"
Lord Chen curled his lips and said, "Aren't you afraid that you will be jealous?"
Besides, he had never given gifts to other women, so how would he know what to give.
However, thinking that Xiaodie was about the same age as his daughter, and recalling the gift he had given his daughter before, Lord Chen had an idea.
"We are all exiled now, where can we find gifts..."
"Your belongings are not there, go and look for them yourself!" Chen's mother rolled her eyes at him and pointed to a warehouse built of bamboo houses not far away.
The Chen family’s savings are all there, and it is easy to find some gifts for Xiaodie from those savings.
After discussing it, they left the house and began to prepare for the next day.
The next day, the exiles continued their journey.
Thanks to the snow cave pointed out by Chen Xue, no one froze to death. Everyone was in high spirits and obviously slept very comfortably.
However, the surrounding area was covered with snow, and the monotonous color made everyone's mood become monotonous as well.
“When will we be able to survive this winter?”
Cold, hungry, tired.
A variety of emotions enveloped them, making them regret the wrong things they had done.
But it's no use regretting it.
The team suddenly became silent, and everyone seemed to be in a quiet mood, but Chen Xue's family was immersed in a joyful atmosphere.
"Xiaodie, you're the birthday girl today, so you don't have to work. Leave everything to us!"
"Girl, how can this be possible?"
"What did you call me?"
"girl!"
"You know I'm a girl, so you should listen to me!"
"yes!"
"Then I order you to rest well!"
