Chapter 209: Spend Less
Before anyone could say anything, the flowers in Bu Ruo's hand disappeared. She waved her hand casually, and snow began to fall in the small courtyard where they were. She waved her hand again, and a hurricane blew outside the courtyard, shaking the trees...
Seeing the shock in their eyes, Bu Ruo pointed mischievously at the top of Jin Congcong's head. The wind and snow stopped instantly, but a light rain began to fall on someone's head...
"Hey? Hey, hey, hey? Ruo'er, Ruo'er... stop it. I'm wearing a new robe today. Don't let it get wet!"
"Ruo'er! Ruo'er! I'm going to stop showing off from now on, okay? I'll work hard at sweeping the floor and practicing. I promise I won't be just a pile of dust next time."
Bu Ruo smiled and waved her hand, and the rain that was chasing Jin Congcong stopped running: "This is not spiritual consciousness, but divine consciousness. If your understanding is high enough... maybe spiritual consciousness can become divine consciousness."
Jin Congcong came up with a licked face: "Then what is in your consciousness, Ruoer?"
"It's a flower~" Bu Ruo glanced at him, "Don't think about competing with me, I'm much more powerful than you. Although flowers are in my consciousness, everything in the world can be used by me as long as I want."
Jin Congcong sat aside dejectedly: "Okay, okay, you are all amazing, with fire, water, flowers and rain, but I am the only one who turned to gray, okay."
Bu Ruo smiled and said, "Who said you are not powerful? In fact, you are still quite powerful."
"What's so great about me?"
"You're so cocky! Look at how you looked just now. If you had a tail, you'd want to stick it up to the sky."
Jin Congcong: ...
…
These days, Bu Ruo would go to bully Jin Congcong after visiting Luo Ran's children during the day, and at night he would sit at the gate of the yard waiting for Xiao Yulan.
Xiao Yulan came back on the fifth night. As soon as he landed, he saw his little wife looking at him pitifully, her eyes full of worry.
"Ruo'er, why are you sitting here? Get up quickly, it's cold."
Bu Ruo stood up from the threshold and pointed: "Bi'er put a cushion under me. Today is the fifth day. Did you come back on time?"
Xiao Yulan chuckled helplessly, "No way, I went all the way there and found that the rift wasn't in Da Zhou at all, but in Beining. It's only thanks to my demonic power that I was able to return in such a short time."
"The barrier does have a crack. I've sealed it. It'll be fine until you give birth. Things over there can't get through for the time being."
"Beining again?" Bu Ruo frowned, his eyes filled with resentment. "It's so annoying! Sooner or later, I'm going to make Beining's messy witchcraft disappear."
"By the way, I went to see my beautiful master the day you left. She said the continent next door is connected to ours and is the land of the Heavenly Demons."
Hearing Bu Ruo's words, Xiao Yulan also frowned, and after thinking for a moment...
"Is he the immortal who was removed from the immortal world?"
Bu Ruo was stunned and looked at Xiao Yulan hatefully.
"Uh...did the king say something wrong?"
"No."
Seeing that Bu Ruo's mouth was pouting so much that it could be tied up, Xiao Yulan coaxed him softly, "Since I'm not wrong, then what are you angry about?"
Bu Ruo pinched him hard: "Why can't I figure it out after thinking for a long time? You know it as soon as you think about it. My beautiful master said I was stupid... It's okay to say I'm stupid, but she also said I'm stupid to death..."
Xiao Yulan: ...
"Don't laugh! You can only walk on the same path as me, and you can't go astray!"
"Okay, okay, I will always be on the same path with Ruo'er. Just go forward with confidence. I'll be there to protect you."
A month later, Luo Ran finished her confinement and it was time for Bu Ruo and his group to go back.
At the foot of the nameless mountain, Bu Ruo's brow twitched slightly as he watched Luo Ran ordering people to load things onto the carriage box by box.
"Master's wife, we really don't need so many. When we came here, there were only two carriages, but now there are already seven. We really can't move any more."
Luo Ran frowned as she looked at the boxes of things. "This isn't enough. Let Master's Wife prepare some more. She'll deliver it to you personally before you give birth."
"Don't worry about the carriage. We have plenty of carriages and drivers in Wuming Mountain. There are so many people in the mountain, is it possible that we can't find a few drivers?"
"The last time you went back to Kyoto, your master's wife wasn't there. When I came back, I heard that your master had brought you a box of cakes when you left. I was so angry that I chased him all over the mountain and beat him up for several days. You bastard, why didn't you kill him? It was as if I didn't leave him any money."
Jin Congcong: "I finally know who I follow."
"And you!"
Luo Ran grabbed Jin Congcong's ear and started scolding him, "Did you remember everything I told you? When you get to the palace, you must listen carefully to Ruo'er and the prince. Don't cause any trouble for them. If you need money, then... find a way to earn it yourself. Don't always ask Ruo'er for it."
"Ruo'er is pregnant now, so you better be steady and stop yelling all day long and startling her. Aren't you a sweeping fairy? Go back and just sweep the floor honestly. Help others with some work and show some tact. Don't be such a nuisance all day long."
"Also, the food in this carriage is for Ruo'er to nourish her body, you are not allowed to eat it! The silver and those fun things are also for Ruo'er, you are not allowed to take them! Those ancient books are for the prince, don't think about them! The precious herbs are for Doctor Du, you are not allowed to use them to make your crappy medicinal food!"
"If I knew you dared to touch those things, I would come over and break your legs!"
Jin Congcong looked at his father standing aside as if he were invisible and yelled, "Can you please use your mighty power as the master of a mountain to control your wife? Didn't you see how he bullied your son? Are you still a man?"
Jin Wuyou touched his nose awkwardly after seeing the look his wife was giving him: "I can't. I'm afraid your mother will leave the father behind and keep the son. You know, your mother is really capable of doing that."
Jin Congcong cried, "Then...then you can give me some silver, okay? I don't want much, just give me eight taels."
Bu Ruo burst out laughing. "Jin Congcong, are you still thinking about your eight taels of silver? I told you, what's not yours will never be yours. Even if Master gave it to you, you have to throw it away."
Jin Wuyou was even more embarrassed, his voice as small as a mosquito: "Eight taels... I can't give you eight taels. I only have twenty copper coins, which your mother gave me yesterday after I worked for half a day."
"Didn't you see the clothes hanging out in the yard when you left this morning? I washed your mother's and your children's clothes. I washed them all until midnight."
Jin Congcong opened his mouth, sighed, took out ten copper coins from his sleeve pocket, bit his back teeth and put them into Jin Wuyou's hand.
"Son, this is all I can do for you. Please spend it sparingly. I don't have any more..."
