Chapter 139
Ming Qiao's words were like thunder, shocking everyone in Qing Heng.
"What, what stepfather?"
Qing Heng suspected that he had heard it wrongly: "Qiao Qiao, did you say something wrong?"
"No."
Ming Qiao buried his little head in his mother's arms and rubbed it hard: "Mom, do you want a stepfather?"
Ming Qiao, who has read many novels, doesn't want a stepfather.
The stepmothers and stepfathers in the novels are all bad.
However, my mother’s stepfather is the uncle that Mingqiao likes.
Stepfather is not good, uncle is good.
This made Mingqiao very conflicted.
"Who wants to be my stepfather?" Qing Heng saw Ming Qiao said it so confidently and knew that he was probably not talking nonsense.
He lowered his eyes, looked at his son's little head, and asked patiently with a steady voice: "Qiao Qiao, be good and tell me everything you know."
Mingqiao didn't want to hide anything from his beloved mother.
He raised his little face and said, "Uncle wants to be my grandpa."
"Qiao Qiao saw the uncle today."
"Uncle hugged grandma."
After saying the last sentence, Ming Qiao hesitated and added: "Grandma's eyes are red. She seems to like uncle too."
Qingheng: "..."
Qingheng really didn't expect this to happen.
He had never seen the uncle Ming Qiao mentioned, but before tonight, he had always had a good impression of this uncle.
The other party took care of Ming Qiao when he and Wu Ye were not there, and also vented Ming Qiao's anger.
Both he and Wu Ye were very grateful to this strange old man.
But no matter how grateful he was, he would not involve his mother.
"Mother——"
Ming Qiao wanted to say something, but Wu Ye hugged him.
"My dear son, whether he is your stepfather or not is still uncertain. You don't have to worry about this matter. Your mother and I will take care of it."
After Wu Ye finished speaking, he kissed his son’s chubby face and began to coax him to sleep.
Mingqiao doesn't want to sleep yet.
Wu Ye held him in his arms and let him lie on his chest. He did not try to coax him to sleep, but just whispered to him a story he had made up.
Wu Ye has a deep voice, and in a night like this, even when he tells childish stories, it is particularly attractive.
Qingheng looked at him unconsciously.
Halfway through the story, the kid, who was refusing to sleep, closed his eyes tightly.
Wu Ye knew that he had fallen asleep, but he did not stop making noises.
After the whole story was told, Wu Ye's big hands supported his son's back, but his handsome face turned towards Qingheng.
"Stories outside require tips. I've finished telling my story, but I haven't received any tips yet?"
Wu Ye asked with a raised eyebrow, looking like he was going to give a reward.
Qingheng looked at him, leaned forward, and the next second, placed a kiss on his handsome face.
Wu Ye's eyes suddenly narrowed.
"It's not enough. There's still money for your son. You need to give more on behalf of your son."
Qingheng: "..."
Qingheng didn't bother to kiss him.
Qingheng didn't come over to kiss him, so Wu Ye came over and bit Qingheng's lips.
The two exchanged a long kiss.
"Don't think about anything. Your mother's feelings are her own business after all."
Wu Ye comforted Qing Heng: "Don't let this make things difficult for yourself by overthinking it."
"Um."
Qing Heng looked at Wu Ye and his son in front of him. He moved closer to Wu Ye and leaned on his shoulder: "I don't mean to stop my mother. As long as she is happy, I think it's okay for her to be with anyone."
For a moment, he felt that the news was too sudden.
"I know you won't stop your mother."
Wu Ye reached out and held Qing Heng's slightly cold hand. He smiled and said, "You won't stop me, but I don't know whether my brother will stop me or not."
Given my eldest brother's temper, if he knew about this and knew that someone was targeting our mother, I'm afraid he would not calm down.
Thinking of his elder brother, Qingheng couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips.
The older of the three family members leaned against the head of the bed, and the younger one lay on his chest. After a long while, they finally lay down.
Qingheng slept fairly soundly that night.
His son was still sleeping against the wall, while he was held in Wu Ye's arms. Neither of them moved around as much as his son when they slept, so they were still sleeping side by side until dawn.
The baby had a nap and seemed to be in a good mood, probably because he had enough sleep.
He kicked his daddy with his chubby feet and played with his daddy on the bed for a while. Only then did his daddy put his clothes on him and put him down.
"Go find your brother."
Wu Ye sent his son out first.
Mingqiao wore the new clothes made by her father and ran happily to find her brother.
As soon as he entered his brother's room, Ming Qiao keenly smelled something wrong.
"Brother, are you leaving?"
The happy expression on Mingqiao's little face disappeared.
You Qing touched his little face and said "hmm".
It would be useless for him to stay with Ming Qiao. It would be better for him to go out and try his luck on his own.
Mingqiao knew that his brother was going to leave, but when his brother really left, tears welled up in his eyes.
"Are you really not taking Qiao Qiao?"
Ming Qiao looked at her brother with tears in her eyes and recommended herself: "Qiao Qiao, be good."
"Wait until next time. I'll bring Qiao Qiao with me next time."
You Qing promised next time.
But there is no certainty as to when his next move will be.
At the dinner table.
The others also knew that You Qing was leaving, and they had already prepared their luggage, especially Dalong, who bought a lot of treasures for You Qing.
You Qing is a man of steady character. In the family, he is not close to anyone except Ming Qiao.
Now that he was about to leave, he finally lost his composure for once.
He hugged each of the adults who took care of him.
"I will let you know that I am safe."
You Qing whispered, "If you have anything to ask me, tell me and I will be back immediately."
"Just be good outside."
Wu Ye rubbed his little face, with a smile on his handsome face: "Don't worry about us, we will be fine."
"By the way, if someone bullies you outside, tell your family."
Wu Ye gave You Qing instructions one by one, telling him not to act tough outside.
You can go back whenever you want.
When you are bullied, just shake hands.
There are many people in their family, and no matter what time it is, they will go to support You Qing.
You Qing felt warm in his heart as he listened to the adults' words.
After breakfast, You Qing accompanied Ming Qiao to another day of classes.
During this day, Mingqiao was very clingy to him.
Seeing how affectionate they were, Lingsi couldn't help but take a few more glances at them.
"You Qing, can't you not leave?"
Lingsi and You Qing didn't talk much, and they didn't have much friendship, but seeing Mingqiao sticking to You Qing the whole day, Lingsi was really worried that Mingqiao wouldn't be able to recover after You Qing left.
"I'll be back soon."
You Qing replied: "Please take good care of Qiao Qiao when I'm not around."
Lingsi: "Okay."
Lingsi patted Mingqiao's little shoulder comfortingly, indicating that she had also tried her best.
The next day.
When Ming Qiao woke up, You Qing had already left.
Before he left, he wrote a letter to Mingqiao.
Mingqiao looked at the letter, her face still looking very sad.
"I don't want my brother to leave."
Mingqiao felt that she couldn't live without her brother.
He cried so sadly that Qingheng and Wuye took turns to comfort him, but they almost failed.
In the end, it was Shi Ze who stepped forward, brought him to the big dragon, and started playing with him.
With her grandparents by her side, and with the sect's affairs still on her mind, Ming Qiao slowly came out of her sad mood.
He sat on the big dragon and slid on its long body.
Tired of sliding, he lay down with his chubby body spread out, panting and talking to Dalong.
"Grandma, how should I fight in the sect competition?"
There aren't many of them here.
As for the Wukong Sect, he looked it up and found that there were many powerful old guys in this sect.
"roar."
Grandma can fight for you.
Ming Qiao shook her head: "No, grandma doesn't fight, Qiao Qiao finds someone to fight with."
Mingqiao opened her round eyes and thought seriously about her grandmother.
After thinking for a long time, he said in a deep voice: "We still have to ask the seniors!"
The ancestors of the Lintian Sect have to show up!
If they lose this sect competition, it will be very embarrassing.
"Grandma, I need to send out lots of invitations and put up notices."
Ming Qiao somersaulted and sat up.
He quickly came up with a plan with his clever little head.
For this sect competition, he must invite out the ancestor of their Lintian Sect!
"roar."
good.
Dalong supports his grandson. He not only verbally supports whatever his grandson wants to do, but also supports him financially.
With his grandmother's full support, Ming Qiao soon became rich and powerful and issued notices throughout the Tianjun world.
His notice was very simple, with only one core meaning:
Ancestors! Come home!
Tianjun Realm and Lintian Sect are waiting for you to come home!
Ming Qiao posted the notice, and then it was time to wait.
The Zhuling people also started looking for people for him.
While waiting, the little cloud that had been traveling far away was the first to send back news.
"Baby, come quickly, the person is here!"
In order to learn from its senior, the big cloud, the little cloud flew away early.
It vowed to grow as big as its predecessor, the big cloud, to cover the sky and the sun!
Now, it has been out for a while and has no intention of coming back.
Mingqiao had missed it for a long time.
As soon as Mingqiao received the message, he rushed over immediately.
If he wants to go out, he must be compensated by an adult.
Qingheng can't leave.
Qingheng will participate in the sect competition, and he needs to practice well during this last period of time.
Qingheng couldn't leave, so Wu Ye had to take care of household matters.
Shi Ze had to take care of Da Long.
Finally, seeing that Xie Qingyun was not so busy, he decided to send his little nephew off.
He was sending it as a gift to both his little nephew and his own daughter Yaya.
Yayas are inseparable from Mingqiao.
This time when they go out, the Yayas will follow their big brother.
Xie Qingyun was just about to send a few cubs to each other when Lingyan stood up and said he wanted to take the cubs out.
Xie Qingyun hesitated for a moment, not wanting to trouble his mother.
But Ling Yan insisted: "I just happened to be out for something, so I can drop them off on the way."
With Lingyan's insistence, the task of escorting the cubs fell on her.
Qingheng could tell at a glance that his mother went out not because of something, but because she wanted to hide from someone.
Her mood can be seen upon closer inspection.
Not very good.
Wu Ye also knew that Ling Yan wanted to go out and relax, so he held his chin and didn't say anything to stop her from beginning to end.
It’s time to leave, and Mingqiao needs to pack up her things.
While Mingqiao was packing up, Xie Qingyun returned to his room.
After he returned to his room, he told Baiguo that Er Yaya was going out with Mingqiao.
Bai Guo nodded: "I understand."
As he spoke, he tidied up the pots and some toys for the two babies.
"Guo Guo, I wanted to give it to them."
Xie Qingyun's handsome face was a little depressed: "My mother didn't let me send it, she said she would."
"I noticed that my mother has been a little absent-minded these past two days. I'm a little worried."
Xie Qingyun, the eldest son, also cares about his mother. He also sensed his mother's mood in the past two days.
Baiguo saw him sitting down depressed, stopped what he was doing, and touched his head.
"If you're worried, you can follow me."
Bai Guo had a faint smile on her pretty face: "Mother, I won't chase you away."
Bai Guo asked Xie Qingyun to go with him, but Xie Qingyun was a little hesitant.
He hugged Bai Guo's waist and asked, "Do you want to come with me?"
Baiguo shook his head.
Bai Guo is always gentle in front of Xie Qingyun, and he is also somewhat dependent on Xie Qingyun.
But he would not stick to Xie Qingyun blindly.
He has his own things to do.
"I want to give Uncle Sang treatment."
Sang Yu only received treatment for his external injuries, and his physical condition did not improve completely.
Baiguo has been treating him.
Xie Qingyun's handsome face was pressed against Bai Guo's arms. He gently rubbed it and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Guo Guo."
Baiguo smiled gently and didn't feel that he was working too hard.
The two of them just hugged each other like that.
After a while, Xie Qingyun raised his handsome face and asked, "What if I leave and you miss me?"
ginkgo:"……"
Bai Guo: "Nothing to do."
Before Xie Qingyun came, he was living well on his own.
Xie Qingyun was just here to drop the kids off this time and would be back in no time. Bai Guo felt that this amount of time would be no problem for him.
Bai Guo's answer obviously did not satisfy Xie Qingyun.
Xie Qingyun raised his eyebrows, put his big hands on Bai Guo's waist, and unreasonably asked Bai Guo to answer again.
Bai Guo lowered his head and looked at him.
"Then, then I don't miss you anymore."
Baiguo answered slowly, and the more he answered, the more dissatisfied Xie Qingyun became.
I don’t know how much time passed.
Lingyan had already set off with Mingqiao and Yaya, and only then was Xie Qingyun ready to leave.
He knew the route, so he could keep up even if we didn't start at the same time.
When Wu Ye saw that he was about to follow, his expression was quite meaningful.
"Do you really want to go? I don't think mother wants you to go either."
"I can follow you if I want to. What's it got to do with you?"
It turned out that Xie Qingyun always disliked Wu Ye, his brother's wife.
If two people disagree, they will start arguing.
Wu Ye smiled generously in response to Xie Qingyun's provocative tone.
"Brother, let me ask you a question."
"ask."
"If someone wanted to be your father, what would you do?"
"I'll kill him."
Xie Qingyun sneered: "But before I kill him, I will kill you first."
Wu Ye: “???”
Wu Ye died unjustly: "Why? It's not like I found you a stepfather!"
"Who told you to be so rude?"
After Xie Qingyun said this, he no longer paid attention to the talkative Wu Ye. He turned around and strode away.
Wu Ye, who was standing behind him, looked at his back and said angrily, "Such a disobedient son, just wait for your stepfather to punish you!"
After Wu Ye finished expressing his anger, he did not forget to look for Qing Heng.
He is going to complain to Qingheng!
Time passes by little by little.
Mingqiao was on his way out, being held by his grandmother.
"Grandma, am I heavy?"
Mingqiao tilted her head and asked her grandmother who was holding her.
“Not heavy.”
Lingyan is a traditional grandmother. Her ideal for her grandson is that he should be white and plump.
The chubby grandson in her arms now is very much to her liking.
"Grandma, if you're tired, you don't have to hold me."
Although Mingqiao likes to be hugged by adults, it is okay for adults not to hug him if they are tired.
Ling Yan smiled and replied, "Not tired."
The two of them, one big and one small, were hurrying on their way. Lingyan was only facing her little grandson, and her mood gradually relaxed.
The address given by Xiaoyunduo is a bit far away.
They found a place to rest halfway.
Lingyan built a small house for temporary living.
"Grandma, I'll cook for you!"
Mingqiao knew that his grandmother was not good at cooking, so he patted his chest and took on the task of cooking.
He always watched in the kitchen and tried cooking in the wild many times. At least he was better at cooking than his grandmother.
Lingyan sat down and watched the little guy busy himself quietly.
Not far away, there is mountain spring water.
Mingqiao took the kettle and went to fetch water. He boiled eggs with this spring water and they tasted especially good.
As Ming Qiao went to fetch water, a pile of food was piled in front of Ling Yan.
Lingyan: "Take it away."
Xie Jing, who had appeared frequently in the past two days but was always driven away, stood silently in front of Ling Yan.
He didn't take the stuff away.
Seeing this, Lingyan made a gesture to throw it.
He then spoke: "Don't throw it away, you can't cook, these are your favorite foods."
Ling Yan: “?”
Ling Yan laughed sarcastically: "Oh, you still remember what I like to eat."
"Remember."
Xie Jing pursed his lips. He looked at Ling Yan and wanted to stay a little longer, but was afraid of making Ling Yan even more annoyed.
"Ayan, I still remember a lot of things. Can you give me another chance?"
Xie Jing asked what was on his mind.
After he asked this question, he waited for Ling Yan's answer as if he was awaiting a trial.
Lingyan didn’t give it.
Lingyan just sat there with a cold face, not saying a word.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Xie Jing's face darkened.
"Ayan, even if you don't want to give me a chance, I will... continue to wait."
He was the one who was struggling and wasted so much time. Now, it is reasonable for Ling Yan to be angry.
He was patient and could wait until Lingyan gave him a good look.
"I'm right here with you. If you need anything, just call me."
Xie Jing said this and hid in the darkness again.
Ming Qiao, who was fetching water in the distance, came back humming a song, carrying a few water bottles.
One kettle for boiling eggs, one for stewing soup, and another for boiling water.
Daddy said that children should drink more hot water.
"Grandma, I've got some water. Hey, why are there so many foods? Grandma, did you bring these?"
Ling Yan didn't answer, but just said: "See if there is anything you like to eat."
Mingqiao picked out a few sweet ones.
He stuffed it into his mouth happily and felt that his mouth and heart were sweet.
“What a great time.”
Mingqiao's eyes curved up because of the sweetness.
He ate for a long time before he squatted down to boil water and cook.
Lingyan doesn't like cooking and has no interest in the kitchen at all.
In fact, she found it puzzling why people like Wu Ye and Shi Ze loved to cook.
"Qiao Qiao, do you like cooking?"
“I like it.”
Ming Qiao replied to her grandmother while fiddling with the fire: "I want to be able to cook like Daddy and Grandpa."
Lingyan then asked: "Why do you like cooking?"
"Because now that I have learned how to do it, I can cook it for the people I like in the future. I will cook for my brother in the future!"
My brother will definitely be touched when he eats the food he cooks!
Ling Yan: “…”
Ling Yan discovered the blind spot: "Your brother doesn't need you to cook for him. The food he cooks tastes better than yours."
Ming Qiao was stunned.
He thought about it belatedly and realized that the food his brother cooked seemed to taste better than his.
And when the two of them were together, his brother would cook for him.
"I, that's what I'm going to do."
Ming Qiao held the spatula she brought with her and said firmly in her baby voice, "I want to be filial to my brother!"
He couldn't always enjoy his brother's kindness, he also had to give something in return.
One big and one small, one cooks and the other waits for food.
soon.
Mingqiao had almost finished cooking the meal. He was about to serve the meal to his grandmother when suddenly, his eye caught a glimpse of a small thing on the ground.
"Little tiger! This is the little tiger that the uncle carved for me."
Ming Qiao stared blankly for two seconds, then picked up the little tiger and said, "My little tiger, why are you here?"
His little tiger was accidentally lost and he thought he would never find it again.
Now, the little tiger suddenly appeared, which made Ming Qiao look around subconsciously.
Ling Yan immediately thought that this little tiger was probably dropped by Xie Jing.
She was about to think of an excuse, but Ming Qiao had already reacted.
"Grandma, is it big--"
"no."
Lingyan instinctively refuted Mingqiao before he could finish his words.
After she finished her rebuttal, she realized that she was wrong, so she paused and abruptly changed the subject.
"Qiao Qiao, I'm hungry, let's eat."
Ming Qiao: “…”
Ming Qiao: "Okay."
Mingqiao hung the lost little tiger back on his clothes.
He touched the little tiger lovingly, and then served the meal to his grandmother.
The adult and the kid ate the not very delicious meal and filled their stomachs.
After filling their stomachs, they continued on their way.
At sunset they approached their destination.
Little Cloud came to pick us up early.
The little cloud that I haven't seen for many days has actually grown a little bit bigger.
Although it has grown, it is still soft.
Mingqiao's eyes lit up when she saw him.
“Duoduo!”
"Baby!"
The little cloud flew over, scooped up the baby he had been thinking about, and shoveled the baby onto himself.
"I'll take you flying!"
After the little cloud finished speaking, it ascended into the sky on the spot and flew away with its beloved baby.
Yiyun and Yizai hadn't been together for a long time, and when they met again, they were all so happy.
The little cloud flew away with the baby on its back.
Ling Yan watched them fly away and did not chase after them.
It's getting dark now, and the weather doesn't seem to be very good.
She wanted to clear the wooden hut so that Mingqiao could live there when he came back.
The sky is densely covered with dark clouds.
The little cloud flew away and was not in a hurry to send the baby back.
It efficiently delivered the baby to a valley.
This valley looks like a tomb.
"Baby, the sixth generation leader of the Lintian Sect lives here!"
Xiao Yunduo reminded Mingqiao and asked him to go and call for help.
Ming Qiao came here to look for someone.
He jumped down from the Little Cloud God and walked with his short legs to call his senior.
"Baby, this senior is very weird, you have to be patient and beg him."
"Yeah! I know!"
Ming Qiao's face was serious. He replied to Xiao Yunduo: "I am very good at kowtow."
He will definitely kowtow to the ancestor so that he will come out of seclusion.
Ming Qiao was still trying to kowtow for the glory of the Lintian Sect, while Ling Yan didn't seem to have much ambition.
She met Xie Jing again in the cabin.
“It’s going to rain.”
Xie Jing held an umbrella and whispered, "I'll bring you an umbrella."
People who practice spiritual cultivation will not get wet even without an umbrella.
Xie Jing's act of giving him an umbrella seemed unnecessary.
But he still came to deliver it stubbornly.
Lingyan glanced at the umbrella in his hand, which was the same umbrella they had once held together in the underworld.
This umbrella made Lingyan look dazed for a moment.
Xie Jing held the umbrella tightly and looked at Ling Yan without blinking.
"Ayan."
He noticed Ling Yan's hesitation and took the opportunity to say calmly, "Do you still recognize this umbrella? We made this umbrella together."
Ling Yan: “…”
Lingyan didn't say anything.
Xie Jing walked forward.
He approached Ling Yan step by step, and the distance between the two people was getting closer and closer.
Outside the house, Xie Qingyun, who had followed all the way, had a sullen face and set up a barrier.
The author has something to say:
