ch 239 – An Unexpected Discovery; Chasing Away The Best (8)
“It’s a good thing that they can’t cultivate. This kind of live style doesn’t really sh with their personalities. They can and should just live out their lives peacefully. Now that they are with , I will do everything within my power to give them a quiet and peaceful life.”
After saying that, Zhou Jinjiang took his wife’s hand into his and smiled, “No matter how old I am, I just want you to be by myside. And also the kids. Luckily you’ve had so mystical water as well and are now a martial apprentice. As long as you work hard on your cultivation, you will continue to have break throughs.”
“Ye, you are right. Brother Cheng is so nice to us. They let us use everything theirs, food, clothes, everything sa as them. We are their guests in na, but they truly treat us like family. I just wish Dalang and Erlang could join us soon!”
“Don’t worry, I will get them out of serving the royals and be with us!” Seeing the desire in his wife’s eyes, Zhou Jinjiang made up his mind and comfort her tenderly.
“It’s just that the Cheng’s aren’t very stable as of yet, we all need to work hard to achieve that!” Mrs. Zhou smiled but she didn’t mind. Afterall, Zhou Jinjiang had already told her what to expect back in Emperor City.
Suddenly, Mrs. Zhou thought of sothing and asked, “Oh yeah, how was Xiao Xiao? Everybody was scared for her tonight. We all thought she wouldn’t….”
“Don’t worry. Xiao Xiao wasn’t as simple as she seed. We are definitely lucky to be able to stay with the Cheng’s!”
Zhou Jinjiang’s eyes sparkled and he continued, “In a few days, I am going to take a trip to Qing’an Province. I want see if there’s anywhere that’s suitable to build a moat. If I can’t find a suitable place, we will just have to build it right here!”
“That’s all decided by you n. We are won, we don’t know anything like that!”
Before they headed to bed, Cheng Biyuan walked into the master bedroom of the main structure and also found his wife waiting for him. He couldn’t help but to ask, “How co you are still up?”
“Ye, how’s Xiao Xiao? Is she okay? Is she back?” Mrs. Cheng kept on asking with a worried look.
“Don’t worry. Xiao Xiao is fine. She had retired into her own room!”
The slightly tired looking Cheng Biyuan sat down, poured himself a glass of mystical water and downed it. The mystical water he had inside his house wasn’t from the cloned well outside, but brought to him by Xiao Xiao directly from the dinsion.
After three glasses of mystical water, Cheng Biyuan felt incredible and all the tiredness was gone. Then he finally looked over at his wife, pondered for a bit and said, “Yuqin, you…”
“What’s the matter, ye? Sothing you want to tell ?” Mrs. Cheng could tell he had sothing on his mind.
Cheng Biyuan reached over and wiped away the remnant of tears from the corners of her eyes and said, “It’s a good thing that you love the kids, I know. But your biggest weakness is being too soft. Especially in the last few years, you have changed so much. I am not saying that is bad, but you are lacking so aggressiveness and assertiveness, you have gone soft.
“I think it’s all my fault. I didn’t get good enough care of you. Back at Emperor City, you were bullied by others, but you had no choice but to take all the abuse quietly. Those years had taken it all from you. All your feistiness were all gone. Ever since we got here, our lives were much tougher than before, but relatively peaceful. Even so, you’d never confront anyone, and that had molded you into this very compliant personality.”
“Ye, am I too helpless? Do I make you worry too much about ?”
Ever since she has been married and had kids, Mrs. Cheng had stopped cultivating altogether. Even now she was only a mid level martial apprentice, basically just any normal woman. Granted, if it ever ca down to a life and death mont, her potential just might release.
