Younger, Master Loo had a bit of a male chauvinist streak, but as he aged, Old Madam Loo had gradually eroded it away.
Situ Xin didn’t continue the topic, as in her heart, the exam wasn’t worth ntioning.
“Grandpa, Grandfather, when I ca in just now, how co I heard you two talking about a gift for Grandpa Yu?” Situ Xin asked curiously.
“Yes, we just received Grandpa Yu’s birthday banquet invitation today, it’s the day after tomorrow.
Right now, we are discussing what to give him,” Old Master Situ said candidly to Situ Xin.
“Perfect.
Baby is here too, can you help us think of sothing?” Old Master Loo also said.
“Jin, think of sothing too.”
After hearing this, Situ Xin began to sift through her mind for items in her space that could be given as gifts.
She filtered through the entire underground storage, shaking her head, as the items there were either too precious or inappropriate to give as gifts.
Just as she was about to shake her head, she suddenly rembered the Ginseng and Lingzhi mushrooms she had planted with seeds on the mountain in her space.
“Grandpa, Grandfather, what do you think about giving Ginseng and Lingzhi mushrooms as gifts?” Situ Xin tentatively asked.
“Ginseng and Lingzhi are fine items, indeed good for gifts.
But the Ginseng and Lingzhi need to be wild and have so age to them.
It’s very rare to find wild Ginseng and Lingzhi with age nowadays, especially in such a short ti,” Old Master Loo said while stroking his beard.
As he spoke, he also recalled if he knew anyone who might have these items.
“It’s tough indeed.
If there really are so, they would indeed make fine presents,” Old Master Situ agreed.
“Well, Grandpa, Grandfather, my master gave so wild Ginseng and Lingzhi.
Would you like those?” Situ Xin suggested tentatively.
“You have so?” Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo first expressed their surprise, but then they realized it made sense.
If Situ Xin’s master could procure Ginseng Fruit, Ginseng and Lingzhi wouldn’t be a problem.
On the side, Situ Jin looked at Situ Xin and remarked with admiration: “Baby, I’ve co to realize that your master can do anything.
Anything at all.
I bet to your master, these cherished wild Ginseng and Lingzhi are like common cabbages.”
Hearing Situ Jin’s words, Situ Xin thought to herself, “These Ginseng and Lingzhi are definitely not like cabbages; century-old wild Ginseng and Lingzhi that others cannot easily acquire are rely a small bag of seeds to .”
After sticking out her tongue at Situ Jin, Situ Xin turned to Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo and said, “So, Grandpa, Grandfather, do you want them?
If so, I can fetch them for you right now.”
Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo hesitated since they didn’t want to keep taking from their granddaughter (grand-niece).
Seeing the dilemma in her grandfathers’ thoughts, Situ Xin went up to the two old masters and cajoled, “Oh, Grandpa, Grandfather, we are family after all.
What belongs to the baby is also yours, grandpa and grandma, grandfather and grandmother.” With that, without waiting for them to refuse, she took out a Ginseng and a Lingzhi mushroom from her space.
The Ginseng and the Lingzhi had just been picked by Situ Xin from the mountain in her space.
As Situ Xin’s cultivation technique improved, her control over “Phoenix Nest” beca more flexible.
Recently, Situ Xin discovered she could take items directly from her space while outside, even those planted in the ground, and bring them out of the space.
To everyone else, it seed she was retrieving items from her Storage Ring or Storage Bracelet.
Handing the freshly harvested Ginseng and Lingzhi to Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo, Situ Xin asked, “Grandpa, Grandfather, what do you think?
Can they serve as gifts?”
Each old master took a Ginseng and a Lingzhi and examined them closely.
After about five minutes, they exchanged glances and Old Master Loo said first, “This Ginseng and Lingzhi are the best I’ve seen over the years.
These appear to be a hundred years old.”
“That, I wouldn’t know; my master didn’t ntion it when he gave them to ,” Situ Xin replied.
She was unsure about the ratio of ti in the mountains to the outside world, but she knew that things matured much faster in the space mountain than in the space’s soil, though she wasn’t clear on the specifics.
“Every ti your master gives sothing, it’s a treasure,” and thus the gift dilemma for grandpa Yu’s birthday was resolved.
However, Situ Xin suddenly thought of the birthday banquet her grandfathers ntioned and quickly asked, “Grandpa, Grandfather, can I skip Grandpa Yu’s banquet?” Situ Xin had always been indifferent to social gatherings, both in her past and present life.
As a result, she had managed to avoid every family banquet.
In fact, Situ Xin could escape so easily because both families tacitly agreed, preferring not to have her too exposed to the public.
Consequently, many not so close to the Situ or Loo families had only ever seen her during her full-month celebration and first birthday; afterward, she had been out of sight.
They knew of the little princess of the Situ Family but had never seen what she looked like.
“No, you can’t escape Grandpa Yu’s birthday banquet this ti.
Even if we agree, Grandpa Yu would co personally to fetch you if he doesn’t see you there,” said Old Master Situ with a chuckle.
As if he didn’t think the blow was enough, Old Master Loo added, “When Grandpa Yu ca to send us the invitation, he specifically ntioned that you must co.” It was a preemptive asure by Elder Yu, knowing Situ Xin’s personality.
