Little Bell ran out happily with the letter. "Hey, Aunt Liu, the letter is here. I forgot about it yesterday because Su Jingshuo interrupted me. Here, here, here, take it and read it!"
When Liu Jingrou saw the letter, she took it immediately. After confirming that the signature on it was Su Daoxiu's handwriting, she was obviously relieved and a smile appeared on her face.
"That's good, that's good. I said it should have been delivered. I'll go read the letter first."
Xiao Lingling nodded and smiled as she saw Liu Jingrou off.
She turned around and immediately pulled Chunying back to the room. She picked up the pen and wrote a short letter in a few seconds.
"Chun Ying, arrange to send this letter to Uncle Wang immediately. Also, find a way to check Uncle Wang's whereabouts after he returned to Beijing and find out where he went this time.
I told Uncle Wang before that he wouldn't stop communicating with me unless it was absolutely necessary!"
Chunying also realized that something dangerous might have happened, and quickly took the letter.
"Yes, Princess, I'll make arrangements right away. Do you want to mobilize our forces?"
Xiao Lingdang shook her head and said, "Not for now. They are of no use right now. If you are short of manpower, you can ask Brother Zhe for help."
Chunying nodded without saying anything else, turned around and left.
Xiao Lingling sat in the chair in a daze. Logically, she had checked before Uncle Wang set out, and although there was danger, it should not be life-threatening.
So it is very likely that he encountered some trouble and didn't take care of it.
However, although she was still confident in her judgment, she did not want to take any risks, so it was more important to have someone go and take a look.
After making all the arrangements, Xiao Lingdang took Jing Yan to practice.
The little guy was wearing a training suit and looked quite energetic.
Xiao Lingdang taught in a very strict manner, just like when she was learning the basic skills with Yang Qi. Looking at Jing Yan's cute and adorable face, she couldn't help but wonder if she was also so silly back then.
"Hold on, we have to keep doing the horse stance for 25 minutes today. Come, sister will accompany you!"
Jing Yan's physical fitness is very good. Although he was very tired after two quarters of an hour, and his movements became more and more deformed as time went on, Jing Yan never complained of being tired and never stopped.
It was not until the little bell called out that the time was up that the little guy collapsed to the ground in exhaustion.
His little face was flushed and covered in sweat. The few strands of hair on his forehead were wet with sweat and stood at his temples.
Xiao Lingling brought a towel to wipe his face. "How is it? Tired? You'll be tired like this many times in the future. Practicing martial arts is a very tiring job. It's not too late for you to regret it now."
She tried to seduce Jing Yan in a gentle voice, but the little guy remained calm. While panting, he took the teacup handed to him by the maid and drank the water in big gulps.
When he was full, he wiped his mouth and said, "Sister and Master, don't worry, I won't give up! I know it's hard, but I like it.
Sooner or later, I will become a great hero! At least I can protect my family like my father did, so I won't give up!
As he spoke, Jing Yan clenched his fists and raised his arms to cheer himself up. He looked so adorable.
Little Bell looked at him amused and ruffled his messy hair. "Okay, okay, as long as you don't feel tired. Come on, don't sit there anymore. Do some simple exercises, otherwise your legs will hurt."
Xiao Lingling took Jing Yan's hand and helped him stretch his arms and legs while giving him a simple back massage.
Obviously both of them are still children, but they look inexplicably harmonious.
It was Zhao's sudden appearance that interrupted their movements. "Little Bell, hurry up, your master and your senior brother are back! Hurry, they're in the front yard!"
Xiao Lingling was stunned for a moment, then after she came to her senses, she immediately rushed to Zhao with great excitement.
"Grandma, who are you talking about? Master and Senior Brother?"
Zhao smiled and said, "Yes, it's your master and your eldest brother. They just came back exhausted and are drinking tea in the front yard."
Little Lingling was extremely surprised and was about to run forward. Suddenly, she thought of something, turned around, picked up Jing Yan, and ran to the front yard with him in her arms.
"Jing Yan, come on, I'll take you to meet your master and your uncle, they are both very powerful."
Little Bell kept muttering to herself as she ran. She was so excited that Zhao couldn't help laughing.
In the front hall, Jiang Xinian was drinking cup after cup of water, looking a little embarrassed.
Su Jingsheng tilted his head and looked at the door eagerly. He hadn't seen his junior sister for more than half a year, and he didn't know if the little girl was angry.
Originally they said they would only be away for two months, but they didn't expect that they would be away for such a long time with stops and starts.
I couldn't even make it back for my junior sister's birthday.
Originally they would have delayed for some time, but after hearing about the Lin family's misfortune, they hurried back.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew over, and the next moment Xiao Lingling was standing in front of them holding Jing Yan.
Jiang Xinian paused while drinking tea, and looked at Xiao Lingling who had lost weight, with a hint of heartache in his eyes.
But he didn't say much. Instead, he put down the teacup with a smile and waved to the little bell.
"Come here, let the master see if you have made any progress recently."
Xiao Lingling hadn't seen them for more than half a year. It was impossible for her to say that she didn't miss them. She hurried forward with a hint of red in her eyes.
"Master, I'm quite capable. I've researched a lot of great things in the past six months. Most importantly, I've even accepted a little apprentice.
Come, Jing Yan, call me Master!"
Jing Yan first looked at Jiang Xinian. Although he was a little hesitant, he still obediently called him "Master".
Jiang Xinian was a little surprised, "Are you going to teach him medical skills?"
Little Bell shook her head. "No, Jing Yan wants to learn martial arts from me. But since he has chosen me as his master, then my master is naturally his master's master. Right, Master?"
It's true, what he said made a lot of sense. Jiang Xinian nodded seriously and was ready to reach out to take the little guy and hug him.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Lingling zoomed back with the little guy in her arms, grabbed Jing Yan and knelt on the ground.
"Quick, meet your master!"
Jing Yan was a little confused, and Xiao Lingling immediately leaned over and whispered something in his ear.
Then Jing Yan's eyes lit up, and he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Jiang Xinian.
Then, before Jiang Xinian could react, it immediately stretched out its two little paws towards Jiang Xinian.
"Jing Yan greets Master, thank you for the greeting gift."
Jing Yan looked at Jiang Xinian with sparkling eyes, which confused him. Jiang Xinian, who came to his senses, held his forehead with one hand and looked at his little disciple who was trying to hold back his laughter, feeling helpless.
"Never mind, never mind. Since you call me Grandmaster, I should give you a gift. Here, this is an extremely precious medicinal bead that I, your Grandmaster, found with great difficulty in the Far North. I'll give it to you.
Keep it well, and ask your master to make it into a pill for you later. It will help speed up your internal cultivation!"
