Zhao Xi smiled and shook her head, saying, "Auntie, it's alright. It's not Yunfeng's fault. I took it myself. I'm not tired."
Seeing Zhao Xi protecting Lin Yunfeng, Dong Xiulan was even happier, and her smile became even brighter. She said gently to Zhao Xi, "Xi Xi, don't spoil him. Boys should do more work. How can you let girls carry so much luggage!"
After speaking, Dong Xiulan gave Lin Yunfeng a disdainful look.
Lin Yunfeng looked at Zhao Xi with a wronged expression, which made Zhao Xi burst out laughing.
"Alright, let's hurry back!"
Lin Jianguo said.
Dong Xiulan glanced at everyone and immediately ordered, "Nanxun, you ride your bicycle with Qingqing and the child, I'll take Xixi, and let your father and your third brother walk back."
When they arrived at the train station, Dong Xiulan and Lin Jianguo each rode a bicycle, and Dong Xiulan made the arrangement as follows.
After the four left, Lin Jianguo and his son Lin Yunfeng looked at each other for a long time, then sighed helplessly and walked home.
As soon as the four arrived home, Dong Xiulan busied herself cooking, with Lin Qing and Zhao Xi helping out. When Lin Yunfeng and Lin Jianguo returned, the meal was just finished; they had made a simple noodle dish with shredded pork. After everyone finished eating, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Zhao Xi followed Lin Yunfeng to Lin Yunfeng's room, while Lin Yunfeng went to his older brothers' rooms. Gu Nanxun also followed Lin Qing to Lin Qing's boudoir.
Gu Nanxun looked around at the clean and tidy room. The room was very simple and could be seen at a glance. There was only a bed and a table, but Dong Xiulan had made it very clean. The bedding on the bed was also clean and warm, and Gu Nanxun could smell a faint scent of soap.
"How about it? Isn't it pretty basic?"
Lin Qing placed Gu Nianqing on the bed, then looked at Gu Nanxun, who was surveying the room, and said with a smile.
"It's already very good. In the city, many families have several brothers crammed into one room. It's already quite good that Qingqing has her own bedroom."
After visiting Lin Qing's room, Gu Nanxun placed an alarm in the room and then led Lin Qing and Gu Nianqing into the space.
"Master, why did it take you so long to enter the space!"
"Master, are you alright?"
As soon as they entered the space, Huanling and Duobao greeted them. Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing used to enter the space almost every day, but this time they hadn't entered the space for several days because they were on the train.
As soon as Gu Nianqing saw Duobao, she tried to pounce on him. Gu Nanxun gently placed Gu Nianqing on Duobao's body, and Duobao rubbed against Gu Nianqing's legs before taking her to play elsewhere.
For some reason, ever since Gu Nianqing met Duobao when she was five months old and it had just woken up after digesting the blood of the divine beast, she has always liked Duobao. Whenever she enters the space, Gu Nianqing wants to stay with Duobao, and she even wants to sleep on Duobao's body.
After winning a drop of divine beast blood in a lottery, Gu Nanxun gave it to Duobao. Duobao woke up after sleeping for five months and evolved a pair of wings, as well as gaining the ability to ward off evil and bring good fortune.
According to Duobao, it was a drop of blood from the auspicious beast Qilin, and after Duobao ate it, he also developed some auspicious traits.
Gu Nanxun learned about it from Duobao, but Gu Nianqing immediately recognized that Duobao had some Qilin blood in its body. This was one of the reasons why Gu Nianqing was close to Duobao. Another reason was that Duobao was about to come of age, and the spiritual energy in its body had begun to overflow. After Duobao came of age, the place where it lived would be the place with the most spiritual energy in the entire space, and its function would be no less than that of a spiritual vein.
Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing didn't understand that the Golden Scale Spirit Dog was actually also called the Golden Scale Divine Dog. It had disappeared from the cultivation world for tens of thousands of years. Ten thousand years ago, which major sect didn't want to have a Golden Scale Divine Dog? The Golden Scale Divine Dog not only had powerful combat strength and could serve as a guardian beast of the mountain, but it could also continuously generate spiritual energy, allowing the entire sect to cultivate in a rich spiritual atmosphere.
Gu Nianqing had only seen the Golden Scale Divine Dog because she had lived a long enough life in her previous life. Moreover, this Golden Scale Divine Dog even possessed a trace of Qilin bloodline, which made Gu Nianqing like it even more.
After watching Duobao leave with Gu Nianqing, Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing went to the bedroom, washed up, and lay down on the bed. Soon after, they both fell asleep.
When the two woke up, it was already evening. Lin Qing led Gu Nanxun and Gu Nianqing out of the space and came out of the bedroom.
"Qingqing, you're awake. Did you get enough rest?"
Upon seeing Lin Qing, Dong Xiulan hurriedly stepped forward to ask what was wrong, and then took Gu Nianqing from Lin Qing's arms.
Lin Qing looked up and saw that Lin Yunfeng and Zhao Xi had also gotten up and were now sitting at the table chatting.
"Now that you're awake, let's eat!" Lin Jianguo said with a smile, his eyes fixed longingly on Gu Nianqing in Dong Xiulan's arms.
Dong Xiulan smiled, handed the child to Lin Jianguo, and then went straight to the kitchen to serve the dishes. Lin Qing and Zhao Xi hurriedly followed to help.
At Dong Xiulan's call, the family gathered around the dining table, the aroma of food filling the room. Tonight's dinner was even more sumptuous than lunch, featuring braised fish, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and a fragrant chicken soup.
"Here, Xixi, Qingqing, this is chicken soup that Mom specially made for you to nourish your bodies." Dong Xiulan gently served Zhao Xi and Lin Qing each a small bowl of chicken soup.
Then he served a bowl to Gu Nanxun and Lin Yunfeng.
"Mom, you and Dad should drink too," Lin Qing said with a smile when she saw that Dong Xiulan only served them chicken soup but not herself, so she served a bowl to both Dong Xiulan and Lin Jianguo.
Gu Nianqing blinked her big eyes and sat obediently in Lin Jianguo's lap, gazing longingly at the food on the table. As she looked, she couldn't help but sigh, "When will I grow up? When will I be able to eat meat?" Gu Nianqing thought to herself.
"Pfft..."
Although Gu Nianqing was sitting in Lin Jianguo's lap, Lin Qing kept an eye on him. At this moment, Gu Nianqing's little expressions kept changing, which made Lin Qing laugh out loud.
Following Lin Qing's gaze, everyone saw Gu Nianqing reluctantly turning her eyes away from the food.
"You're spineless!"
Gu Nanxun said something, then took a clean chopstick, dipped it in the chicken soup in the bowl, and carefully put it into Gu Nianqing's mouth. Gu Nianqing couldn't wait to put the chopstick in her mouth and suck on it. Oh my god, it smells so good! Then her eyes lit up and she stared straight at Gu Nanxun.
Gu Nanxun felt a pang of tenderness at Gu Nianqing's gaze and couldn't help but carefully scoop some chicken soup with a spoon, blow on it to cool it down, and feed it to Gu Nianqing.
"Nanxun, you mustn't!" Dong Xiulan hurriedly stopped Gu Nanxun when she saw his actions.
