Chapter 124 Auspicious Smoke Emerging from the Ancestral Grave
Greenie asked Greenie curiously, "Fifth Sister, when did you two get together?"
Qing'er coughed first, "Ahem, it's been a few years."
"You were together before you went back? I heard you mention that?" Wow, that's quite a secret.
"Fifth Sister, why didn't you even tell us?" Lan'er was a little unhappy when she heard this. Sure enough, Fifth Sister had someone she liked, so she didn't care about her anymore. It was one thing not to tell the other sisters, but why couldn't it be her?
Qing'er calmly replied, "I just wanted to give you a surprise." She was too lazy to explain, so she figured she might as well just meet them and tell them.
Greenie pouted, clearly not believing her, and then asked, "You told Mother, didn't you?"
Qing'er nodded without any guilt. "Of course, such beautiful flowers should definitely be mentioned to Mother."
Li Lianhua, who was standing to the side, immediately burst into laughter, her mouth stretching almost to her ears.
Only Li Xiangxian and Di Feisheng looked completely bewildered. "Empress Dowager?" That title was reserved for royalty, wasn't it? They'd never heard of so many princesses in the royal family. Seeing Li Lianhua's completely unsurprised expression, they knew perfectly well he knew something. A bitter feeling instantly welled up inside them. They were all someone else's sons-in-law; he knew everything, while they knew nothing.
Although Di Feisheng had comforted himself earlier, so much time had passed and Lan'er hadn't told him anything about his family. Thinking of this, he looked at Lan'er with resentment. Li Xiangxian looked at Lü'er with the same expression. Only Li Lianhua was there, grinning foolishly.
Perhaps those two gazes were too intense, for the three sisters who were chatting there stopped and looked at them.
"Afei, what's wrong?" Lan'er rarely saw Di Feisheng with this expression and thought something had happened.
Greenie looked at Li Xiangxian and gestured with her eyes, asking what was wrong.
Li Lianhua moved the stool over and sat down next to Qing'er. Qing'er smiled at him and then asked softly, "What's wrong with them? Weren't they fine just now?"
Li Lianhua said with a hint of pride, "They envy me." Although all his attention had been on Qing'er, he could still sense the two auras of sorrow emanating from the people beside him.
Qing'er looked puzzled. Envious?
Li Lianhua smiled and said, "They envy how good Qing'er is to me."
Li Lianhua's voice wasn't loud, but everyone present, who was a cultivator, heard it.
Greenie was speechless, then stared intently at Li Xiangxian, "Am I not good to you?" Her eyes seemed to say, "If you dare say no, you're dead."
Lee Sang-hyun coughed awkwardly and said, "Very good!"
Lan'er felt a little guilty, since Di Feisheng had always been the one to indulge and pamper her.
Di Feisheng has always been the type to speak his mind. Now that he's here, he definitely has to ask. He feels that if he doesn't ask, Lan'er might not remember what he told him: "Lan'er, you've never told me about your family."
Lan'er didn't know why, but she could see the grievance on his expressionless face. She said somewhat guiltily, "You didn't even ask."
The others understood why they had those expressions.
Qing'er looked at Lü'er and Lan'er speechlessly, "Didn't you tell them about what happened at home?"
The two shook their heads simultaneously. It wasn't that they were deliberately keeping quiet; they simply hadn't thought of saying it at all.
Qing'er rubbed her forehead. Oh well, she was used to these unreliable sisters. She'd do the talking herself.
Qing'er cleared her throat and began to speak, "We are not from this world..." She spoke slowly, taking almost an hour to finish, and of course, she also mentioned some of the rules for survival in the Heavenly Court. In the meantime, Qi Mushan and his wife finished cooking and came out to call them to eat, but when they heard Qing'er talking about the Heavenly Court, they quietly sat down to listen.
As for eating, it's not important. They've all cultivated immortality, so they're used to eating. They just eat when they have time and don't eat when they don't.
They were all shocked after hearing this. Qi Mushan said: "You brats, you've lost all your potential. You even managed to snag a princess from the Heavenly Court."
Granny Cen: Good lad, is this some kind of auspicious sign from your ancestors' graves?
