Long Kangnian couldn't hold his liquor; a little fruit wine was enough to make him drunk. He clung to his brother's leg, complaining bitterly, "Waaah, you never tell me anything! I'm all grown up now... What happened between you two back then...?"
Long Aotian kicked him away in disgust.
"It's okay if you don't tell me, anyway, Dad wrote me a letter and said he'll tell me everything as long as I go home!"
"Don't go back!" Long Aotian's face was ugly, and he kicked the troublesome kid again.
But at this moment, Long Kangnian was drunk and could not hear what he was saying at all. He just kept muttering to himself, like a kindergarten child who had been wronged.
Xiao Roushu, having secretly drunk some of Fu Hongming and the others' wine, was now drunkenly hugging a tree in the courtyard and confessing: "Senior Sister Tianning, do you know how much I like you? Your 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin Sword Tomb' move was so cool! I've never seen such a cool person in my life! You're even more awesome than the seniors recorded in the incomplete scroll! I regret becoming my father's disciple, ahhh, I should have joined your sect later!"
"Or you can be my second master, and you'll be of the same generation as my father!"
"No, no, no! How could my father compare to you!"
Tianning: "..."
If Sect Leader Xiao heard such words, he would probably be furious.
Fu Hongming, with malicious intent, tried to feed wine to the old man in the coffin, but Shi Qinxin discovered it. Shi Qinxin picked up her sword and was about to kill this unfilial senior brother. The two chased and fought in the courtyard, which was more exciting than a play!
Tianning found a tree, sat down, and admired the moon. She looked at the interesting scene below with amusement.
Before she could even take out her storybook, she saw Jiang Xi, who was blind, slowly climbing the tree, inching her way towards her.
"What's wrong, Second Senior Brother?" Tianning thought he was drunk.
"Junior Sister..." Jiang Xi was clearly not used to being in the tree, his voice was a little weak, but he still tried to speak steadily:
"What I meant was... you can think of me as your older brother, and your eldest and fourth senior brothers are also older brothers, and your third senior sister is an older sister... or if you want, you can think of me as your mother!" He paused, then suddenly realized, "That probably won't work either, otherwise the seniority of Master and Third Junior Sister will be messed up..."
Tianning: "..."
"In short! We don't want that biased fourth brother! If Junior Sister needs anything, just tell the senior brothers and sisters. This place is Junior Sister's home. If there's anything, Junior Sister must tell us..." Jiang Xi said a lot in one breath.
Tian Ning listened attentively. Among the senior brothers and sisters, the second senior brother was the most thoughtful. He must have been worried about Wenren Xue because of Wenren Yang's bias in helping her that day.
I felt a warm glow in my heart. Compared to the Wen family, whose blood ties are thicker than water, the people of Hujian Mountain seemed more like family.
Rather than treating her as a daughter, the Wen family treated her more like a pet cat or dog. As long as she had enough to eat and wear and could survive, that was enough. They would call her over and play with her occasionally when they thought of her.
Tianning never considered that place as home.
"Don't worry, Second Senior Brother, I don't care what they do," Tian Ning said.
Jiang Xi couldn't see what Tian Ning's expression was at that moment, but he knew that a little girl who hadn't grown up with her parents since childhood and was suddenly taken home must be longing for love. He felt that his junior sister was pretending to be strong.
Jiang Xi wanted to say something to comfort Tian Ning, but Long Aotian, who had somehow gotten rid of Long Kangnian, jumped up and said resentfully, "Second Senior Brother! Are you secretly giving Junior Sister something good behind my back again?"
"You can't always be so biased! Don't you know that even I, your junior brother, can be heartbroken?"
"..."
Jiang Xi didn't know if he was heartbroken, but she was disgusted and silently backed away to start climbing down.
Second Senior Brother has difficulty moving around, and Tianning wanted to send him down, but Long Aotian stopped her, saying, "Although Second Senior Brother is blind, his hearing is exceptionally good. Don't worry, Junior Sister, he can go down by himself."
You're such a good junior brother.
