After Qingli washed up, she came to the pavilion outside.
Food has been placed on the dining table.
Because it was cold, a charcoal fire was lit in the pavilion. The original ventilation area was also surrounded by walls. Without the wind, and with the addition of the charcoal fire, it was actually quite warm.
Qingming was sitting by the charcoal fire holding Yangyang, teaching him how to read.
Seeing Qingli coming, Yangyang smiled and called, "Mom."
Qingming looked up, put the book away and handed it to his grandson, "Yangyang, put the book away, we will read it after dinner."
Yangyang nodded obediently, holding the book and running towards the study.
"Morning, Master."
Qingli spoke lazily. After greeting Qingming, she sat on the other side of the charcoal fire.
Seeing her lazy appearance, Qingming said disdainfully: "Ali, why do I feel that you are getting lazier and lazier? It seems that I have to find something for you to do."
Qingli was helpless, "Master, if you have any instructions, just tell me! How can I not obey your orders?"
Qingming pretended to snort coldly, "Of course not, the child has grown up and has a lot of things to do!"
Qingli laughed helplessly, "Master, I don't mind. I don't mind at all. Just tell me what you want. I'll do it for you."
Qingming sighed and his expression suddenly became serious.
"Recently, there is a Taoist temple called Jiuli Temple that has become very famous. The master of that temple is called Li Jiuhua. Actually, he is my junior fellow apprentice, but he has long been expelled from the sect. We each went our separate ways. But I found that the Seven Profound Treasure Book that our Seven Profound Sect lost seems to be in his possession. That book can only be used by the sect leader, and you haven't even seen it!"
Qingli was curious, "Master, you have a junior brother? Do you have other senior brothers and sisters?"
Qingming seemed to be lost in some memories. After a long while, he only said lightly, "No, let's talk business. What Li Jiuhua does outside has nothing to do with me, but this Seven Mysterious Treasure Book is not something he can have. Ah Li, go and get this Seven Mysterious Treasure Book back. It belongs to you."
Qingli nodded, "Okay, Master, is what's written on it important? What is it?"
Qingming did not satisfy her curiosity and said, "You can find it if you want. Only the previous masters can see it."
Qingli asked, "Master, have you seen it?"
Qingming nodded, "I have seen it, but I haven't understood it thoroughly yet, so I can't find it."
Qingli nodded, "Okay, Master, I will definitely find your things back for you. But Master, you have to take care of Mengmeng and Yangyang. I can't take them with me when I go to do things."
Qingli had wanted to go out for a run for a long time. She had been to the mountains only a handful of times in the past three years. Apart from giving money to the kid from the Lin family, she went to see Xue Nan and the others. She could only come back on the same day because the two kids at home were very noisy and would not let her go out for too long.
Qingming never thought of letting her take the two children with her. His junior fellow apprentice was not a good person, and it would be too dangerous for the two children to go with him.
"I didn't want you to take it with you. You're not going to play. It's so dangerous. They should just stay in the valley. You should get the things as soon as possible and come back!"
That being said, Qingming knew in his heart that it was not so easy to get this thing back. It would probably take a long time for Qingli to get it back.
Qingli said, "Master, you have to do a good job of convincing Mengmeng and Yangyang. I can't do it. I can only leave secretly. You can explain to them yourself later."
Qingming was also helpless. Thinking about this really gave him a headache.
"Okay, okay, I get it. I will comfort them both."
The two of them didn't know that their conversation was heard by Meng Meng who was hiding outside.
Mengmeng was very angry and wanted to rush out to find her master and mother to argue, but was suddenly stopped by her younger brother.
Yangyang made a hushing gesture to his sister, then pulled her to a safe place before saying, "Sister, if you go to question Master and mother, the result will be the same. Mother won't take us there."
Yangyang's little face, which was 60% similar to Qingli's, was full of calmness. He always looked serious when speaking, like a solemn adult. Although his face was similar to Qingli's, his temperament was completely different.
Mengmeng's face looked nothing like Qingli's, except for the mouth. Her eyes and nose were like her father's.
Knowing that her brother had always been interested, Meng Meng hurriedly asked, "Brother, if you have any ideas, tell me quickly."
The two had only been to the mountain once since they were three years old. Since then, they had been thinking about it all the time. Unfortunately, they had never been able to go out again.
A gleam of light flashed in Yangyang's bright black eyes, and he said lightly: "Sister, if you want to go to the mountain, you can only go secretly. It won't work if you talk to people with reason. Adults won't talk to children with reason."
Mengmeng felt that what her brother said made sense. Every time she tried to reason with the masters, they found countless excuses to avoid the issue.
Meng Meng looked at her brother with her bright and cunning eyes, "So are we going to run away secretly?"
Yangyang nodded, "Yes, but this matter needs to be considered carefully, and we can't rush it. So, sister, please be patient. I will definitely take you out after mother leaves."
Meng Meng nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you. If you don't keep your word, I'll beat you up."
The little girl raised her fat little fist threateningly.
Yang Yang glanced at her fist, his eyes full of helplessness, "If you don't keep your word, you can beat me up as you like."
Mengmeng felt relieved then, and the brother and sister walked towards the pavilion. Just then, Qingyu and Jianyue had already served all the dishes and were about to call them to come and eat.
"Mengmeng, Yangyang, it's time to eat."
Jian Yue shouted at the two children.
It was the birthday of the two children, and the meals were very rich, a big table full of their favorite foods.
The two kids were thinking about what happened in the mountain and were in a good mood. They ate an extra bowl of rice. Qingli felt relieved to see that they had such a good appetite.
"Mengmeng, stop being naughty. Don't go to the back mountain to play alone in the future. It's dangerous, you know?"
"And Yangyang, you can't follow your sister and make trouble, okay? Keep an eye on your sister and let her read more and learn more words."
Yang Yang nodded, and then asked casually, "Mom, are you going out? Why are you telling me all this?"
Qingli felt guilty at her son's words, but it quickly disappeared. She smiled and said, "No! It was your birthday today, and I felt something. It's not easy to raise you two. You two must protect yourselves, so that your mother can feel at ease."
Mengmeng also smiled, "Mom, if you want to go out, you must take us with you. We will be very good. You must not abandon us, otherwise we will be sad."
Looking at her daughter's admiring and loving eyes, Qingli felt a flash of guilt in her heart. Not only was it that the two of them were too young and it was inconvenient to take them with her, but she was also afraid that they might encounter some danger and would not be able to protect them.
Qingli thought that after she found the Seven Mysterious Treasures that her master had mentioned, she would take the children on a trip. They really couldn't keep them in the mountains forever; they should go see the outside world.
Thinking about it, Qingli said, "When mother finishes everything, I will take you two to travel around the world and have fun for a year or so before coming back."
The two kids nodded obediently, but they were thinking in their hearts that they couldn't wait any longer, this time they had to go up the mountain.
After dinner, the two little guys ran back to their room, saying that they wanted to read, but in fact, they were secretly studying the escape route.
