At this point, Lin Xue pretended to wipe her eyes sadly.
Old Man Liu and Uncle Liu Qing listened with great interest.
They felt that what happened to Lin Xue was very legendary, with a touch of martial arts chivalry.
"Did our master give any instructions before he left?"
Unlike his father, Liu Qing remained calm. After hearing his wife's story, he became curious about the mysterious Taoist nun.
"Master, I left behind some life-saving items, and I'm told never to tell anyone else about them in this lifetime!"
"With all these things, I would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life, which is why I've been a little lazy most of the time."
"After all, I have the things my master left behind, so even if I never work in my life, it will be enough for me to support myself."
Upon hearing Lin Xue's words, both father and son widened their eyes.
What exactly is it that gives my wife (daughter-in-law) such confidence?
"What exactly did your master leave you?"
Liu Qing was so curious that he wanted to crawl into Lin Xue's arms to get a better look.
"Smack!"
"You brat, the master already told me not to say it, why are you still asking?"
Old Master Liu wasn't as foolish as his son.
Since the Taoist nun forbade him to speak, why did his daughter-in-law come to him again? There must be a reason that had to be told.
Although I am also very anxious to know what it is, if I appear too eager, it will seem like I am coveting my daughter-in-law's baby.
He certainly didn't want to cause such a misunderstanding.
"I can't say what it is."
Lin Xue slowly picked up a bite of food. Her husband had been busy tidying up during the day, so the dinner was very simple.
I stir-fried a plate of Chinese cabbage and served it with mixed grain rice.
The young couple had enough to eat, and since Liu Qing was a good cook, Lin Xue wasn't picky.
"But since I can't say, daughter-in-law, you didn't call me here just to tell me you have a Taoist nun as your master, did you?"
The old man was even more puzzled. What exactly did his third daughter-in-law mean?
"You two, stand up first!"
Lin Xue glanced at the two of them while eating.
The father and son exchanged a glance, and although they didn't know why, they obediently stood up and took a step back.
"Wife, I always listen to you, so you can't not give me food!"
Grandpa Liu didn't think anything of it, since he hadn't planned to eat at his third son's house in the first place.
But Liu Qing couldn't stand it. Just because he called his father over for dinner, his wife wouldn't give him any food?
Isn't this just teasing him?
"fool."
Lin Xue glanced at the silly man, then picked up her bowl and chopsticks and leaned back.
The next second, to the disbelief of the Liu father and son, they discovered that the table in front of them, along with the food on it, had all vanished from the spot.
Where's the dining table?
Where's my dinner?
The two grown men, though focusing on different things, were equally surprised.
"Did you see it clearly?"
"You two, stop standing so close and shut your mouths!"
Upon hearing Lin Xue raise her voice, the two of them immediately shut their mouths and took a step back.
Stunned, Old Master Liu no longer cared about social hierarchy.
He was scolded by his daughter-in-law, but he didn't take it to heart.
The next second, the table and the food on it reappeared in front of the two of them.
The two of them acted as if they had seen a rare treasure, and went forward to touch the table and the dishes.
"young married woman?"
Liu Qing stared wide-eyed at his wife. What kind of fairy-tale wife had he married?
"It cannot be spoken of!"
Lin Xue put the chopsticks to her lips, making a shushing gesture.
"The treasure my master gave me is only about the size of a room."
"Moreover, I don't want any fourth person to know about this, except for the three of us in the room."
"Especially my two sisters-in-law!"
The two sisters-in-law were in different situations from Lin Xue. Because they were going to marry Liu Qing, the original owner had a falling out with her family and hadn't been back for several months.
However, her two sisters-in-law often go back to their parents' home, and no one knows what the situation is like there now. If this matter is leaked, Lin Xue will probably be captured and used as a means of transportation.
"The thing is right next to me, but I can see it, while you can't, and nobody else can!"
“Once I die, the items will return to my master on their own.”
"Even if I wanted to let you use the treasure, I couldn't!"
Having gotten used to storage space, Lin Xue didn't want to travel with big bags and small packages.
The Master did not speak of strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits.
However, supernatural and bizarre phenomena have always existed in folk myths and legends.
Therefore, the Liu father and son quickly and readily accepted Lin Xue's precious child.
"Third brother's wife, we're about to have to flee the famine. I wonder if your precious thing can help us gather some things?"
Old Master Liu immediately realized the crux of the matter: his third daughter-in-law must have told him this to prevent the Liu family's fortune from declining.
Otherwise, if the daughter-in-law secretly keeps it for herself, they won't know and that's fine.
However, when I think about setting off, I realize that there are many things I won't be able to take with me.
His wife was so worried that blisters appeared on the corners of her mouth.
The eldest and second daughters-in-law were also so worried that they couldn't sleep for several days.
"You guys pack it up as you see fit, but don't tell your family about this. I'll just sneak the packed things away later after we've taken them out."
"Father, I haven't told even my family about this, except for you and my husband!"
"If others find out about the treasure, even if they can't get it, they'll probably be envious and want to ruin our Liu family!"
Lin Xue was giving Old Master Liu a warning, even though she believed that old people were wise and experienced and that the old man should know how to make a decision.
But I'm worried that the old man might lose his mind and reveal the secret again.
"Third daughter-in-law, don't worry, this matter that I witnessed today will definitely not reach a fourth person's ears!"
"I'll have your mother move all the things to the cellar tomorrow. I'll need your help to pack them up when she leaves!"
After finishing their business, Lin Xue invited the two of them to start eating.
They hadn't made much to begin with, and now there was one more person. The old man didn't want to eat, but seeing Lin Xue's insistence, he didn't refuse anymore.
After finishing his rice in a few bites without even touching the vegetables, the old man hurriedly went back home.
Liu Qing, the devoted husband, then cleaned up the dishes and began to reorganize the household items and the things he wanted to take with him.
Of course, the things to be taken away here refer to items that are in plain sight.
After all, they were fleeing famine; they couldn't possibly be dragging an empty cart with only their wives by their side, could they?
Lin Xue didn't care about all that. She was pregnant, and although it wasn't public yet, she had to be extremely careful about her health.
After dinner, Liu Qing helped him take a hot bath, and then he went to bed early to rest.
Liu Qing was busy at home until late at night before finally going to sleep.
