A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles-Chapter 519: Fear of Aunt-in-law Telling on Me
Chapter 519: Chapter 519: Fear of Aunt-in-law Telling on Me
Lady Ji sighed. "He fell into this Lotus Pond, and I fear his soul is incomplete. When he awakens, he might very well have become a fool!"
"What?"
Huo Xing’Er didn’t panic at Lady Ji’s words, but Ji Youyuan grew anxious.
"Mother, are you mistaken? How could Second Brother become a fool?"
Lady Ji sighed again and pointed to the Lotus Pond.
"This Lotus Pond is connected to the Wangchuan River, so its water is essentially Wangchuan River water. The moment Second Brother came in, he jumped straight into this Lotus Pond. After Suisui pulled him out, she said his soul might be incomplete, that he might become a fool!"
Ji Youyuan’s face paled, and he couldn’t help but stare at the Lotus Pond.
Huo Xing’Er’s gaze landed on the lotus-filled pond.
"He probably lost his mind when he saw those lotus flowers and wanted to go down and gather some lotus roots for medicine!"
Lady Ji was quite surprised to hear this.
"How did you know? None of us could figure out why he acted like a madman and jumped into the Lotus Pond the moment he came in!"
This seemingly estranged couple,
Lady Ji mused.
It’s surprising how well they actually understand each other’s personalities, strengths, and weaknesses. I remember back in Ling Village, when Suisui said Huo Xing’Er had spat blood after pinching her fingers, the way Ji Youran looked back then...
"That man is a medicine fanatic. He wishes he could stuff every rare medicinal herb in the world into his medicine chest, let alone a natural treasure like this, brimming with the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth!"
"Second Auntie is amazing! Ah Ling said this little lotus is about to cultivate into a spirit and told me I absolutely mustn’t disturb it. But she also said I can bathe in this pond water often, as it helps the little lotus spirit’s cultivation!"
Huo Xing’Er nodded and said no more.
Ji Youyuan, however, frowned.
"Has Second Uncle really become a fool?"
Xiaosuisui shook her head and answered honestly, "I don’t know!"
Ji Youyuan was about to ask something else when Xiaosuisui continued, "Even if Second Uncle really becomes a fool, it’s no big deal. I’ll just take a trip to the Wangchuan River, find all the pieces of Second Uncle’s soul, and then put them back together for him."
Both Ji Youyuan and Huo Xing’Er couldn’t help the twitch at the corners of their mouths.
Is the Wangchuan River your backyard or something?
they both thought.
You think you can just go find his soul parts whenever you please?
"Alright, let’s get back to the main topic. I called you two here to discuss Suisui entering the Buddhist order!"
Seeing their conversation endlessly revolving around Ji Youran, Lady Ji forcefully interrupted and changed the subject.
"What? Entering the Buddhist order? Why would Suisui enter the Buddhist order? She’s perfectly fine!"
Ji Youyuan’s expression turned grim. His precious, gentle little girl, the current High Princess of the Capital City—her fine, soft hair couldn’t even be styled into a proper flying sky bun yet, and now it was all to be shaved off for her to become a nun?
"Big Brother! You’ve been away at the Illusion Sect, so you probably don’t know about some things that have happened in Capital City these past two days. We didn’t get a chance to tell you. It’s a good time for me to tell you about the ’good deeds’ the Sect Leader’s little darling has been up to lately!"
She heavily emphasized the words "good deeds"!
Xiaosuisui listened, a little scared.
No matter how I hear it,
she thought,
it sounds like Second Auntie is tattling on me!
So she stretched her arms towards her benevolent grandmother. "Grandma, hug!"
Lady Ji reached out to take her, but Ji Youyuan held her tightly. "Didn’t you say you hadn’t seen your Big Uncle in a long time and missed him?"
Xiaosuisui: "..."
I wish I could turn back time,
she lamented internally,
and take back my impulsive urge to ask Big Uncle for a hug!
"I... I was just worried that if Big Uncle held me for too long, my body is quite heavy, it would make Big Uncle’s arm sore..."
