Chapter 1130 Crystal Ball

,

After the old man left, Yuchen asked me, how did the old man help me solve the curse?

I thought for a moment, then said in disgust, "He made me drink a bowl of particularly smelly medicine, and then the curse was lifted.

"

"Nothing else?" Yuchen asked worriedly.

I thought for a moment, then shook my head, "After drinking the medicine, I fell asleep and there was nothing else.

"

Yuchen still seemed worried, so he took my hand and felt my pulse.

I asked him strangely, could he not trust the old man so much?

Yuchen said, "His medical skills are very good, but he is very strange. I'm worried about what experiments he will do on you.

"

Hearing that Yuchen cared about me, I smiled happily and said, "Don't worry, if he does anything strange to me, I will definitely tell you.

"

While we were talking, the old man came in with a bowl of steaming chicken soup. He brought the chicken soup in front of me and smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes. "Daughter-in-law, drink the chicken soup while it's hot. It's good for your health."

"

I have been tossing for so long without getting even a drop of water in. Now that I can smell the aroma of chicken soup, the glutton in my stomach is suddenly aroused.

I thanked the old man, took the chicken soup and drank it.

While I was drinking chicken soup, Yuchen told the old man that we were leaving.

The old man had a face full of reluctance, but he seemed to be afraid of making Yuchen angry, and he didn't dare to force us to stay. He just kept reminding me and Yuchen to come back to see him more often.

The old man didn't look crazy at all when he said these words, just like an ordinary father looking forward to the return of his children.

Seeing the old man like this, I realized that the old man didn't want to take advantage of Yuchen, he really regarded Yuchen as his son.

After finishing the chicken soup, Yuchen picked me up and said, "Let's go.

"

I wanted to say that I was not in a hurry to go back and could stay with the old man for a while.

But when I looked up and saw Yuchen's cold expression, I swallowed back the words that came to my lips.

I said to the old man, "Uncle, Yuchen and I will come back to see you often.

"

After hearing what I said, the old man nodded happily.

After walking out of the house, the old man called Xiao Qi over and asked Xiao Qi to see us off.

"By the way, daughter-in-law, I have a gift for you, please wait a moment.

"After saying that, the old man ran into the house in a panic. When he came out again, he had a jade pendant in his hand.

The jade pendant in the shape of a water drop is worn on a blackened red thread. It can be seen that this jade pendant is very old. The red thread has changed color, but the jade is still crystal clear. There are cotton spots that have not melted inside. It looks like

It's like snowflakes wrapped in water droplets, very beautiful.

The old man handed me the jade pendant and said, "Daughter-in-law, you must accept this gift.

This is a meeting gift from his mother to you. If you don't accept it, his mother will be angry with me.

"

Yuchen glanced at the old man and said coldly, "Your wife has died a long time ago. She can't be angry with you..."

"Son, what nonsense are you talking about! I know you quarreled with your mother, but you are a son, and even if you are angry with your mother, you can't curse your mother like this!" The old man was angry, with an old face.

Turning red, he glared at Yuchen, "Hurry up and apologize to your mother.

"

Yuchen accepted him as my father just to save me.

Of course Yuchen would not be happy if Yuchen was asked to recognize another mother now.

I noticed that Yuchen was angry, so I quickly took the jade pendant and said to the old man, "Uncle, I apologize on behalf of Yuchen. We will leave first if we have something else to do."

"

If I stay any longer, I'm afraid Yuchen won't be able to control his temper.

Xiaoqi sent us across the swamp by boat, and then he separated from us.

Yuchen held me and walked down the mountain.

I asked him curiously, how did he and the old man meet?

The old man asked Xiao Qi to call Yuchen "young master", which showed that the old man had long wanted to recognize Yuchen as his son.

With Yuchen's temper, how could he associate with such a person?

Yuchen seemed reluctant to say more, but when he met my curious eyes, he patiently told me that he had come to this mountain to practice.

At that time, there was abundant spiritual energy here, and the old man also took a fancy to the abundant spiritual energy here, so he wanted to take possession of this mountain as his own.

Yuchen and the old man met while fighting for this mountain.

"He came with his wife's body, and he has been researching a medicine that can revive his wife.

After I learned about this, I gave up fighting with him for the mountain.

On the day I left, he suddenly came to me and said that he wanted to..." Yuchen's expression turned cold, and his cold eyes showed a light of disgust, "If he hadn't run so fast at that time, he would have been buried on this mountain long ago.

"

Hearing this, I reached out and hooked Yuchen's neck. My eyes were all about him, and I smiled and said, "Yuchen, I like you so much.

"

You obviously hate the old man so much, but for me, not only did you come here, but you also agreed to adopt the old man as your father.

I feel that there is no other man in this world who would be so kind to me.

Yuchen didn't seem to expect that I would suddenly confess to him. He glanced at me speechlessly, "What are you thinking of again?"

"Of course I'm remembering that you were kind to me.

"

I was holding Yuchen, and when he was getting tired, a white shadow suddenly appeared in front of us.

"Sister Lin Xi.

"It's Zhu Jianming.

Zhu Jianming seemed to be rushing over to me in a hurry. He was panting violently. His already transparent body became even more insubstantial, as if he might disappear at any time.

Yuchen reached out and put his fingertips on Zhu Jianming's forehead. After Zhu Jianming's body slowly materialized, he asked, "Why are you here?"

Seeing Zhu Jianming, my heart ached, "Did something happen to my grandma?"

Zhu Jianming shook his head, "Grandma is fine. Grandma said she missed you and asked me to ask you to go home and stay for a few days.

"

Hearing this, I frowned in disbelief, "Really? You didn't lie?" If you miss me, just call me. Why make Zhu Jianming make a special trip.

Zhu Jianming is just a wandering soul without any cultivation. He almost died of exhaustion just to find me.

Zhu Jianming said with a serious face, he definitely didn't lie to me.

I still don't believe it.

My grandma was a disciple of Chu Ma when she was young. She was very reverent of gods and ghosts, and she would not torment Zhu Jianming for no reason.

Seeing that I was still worried, Yuchen said, "Don't think nonsense, you're scaring yourself. Let's go and see with our own eyes whether something happened to grandma.

"

It was already dark at this time, and the place was in the wilderness, so I didn't have to worry about anyone seeing me, so Yuchen hugged me and jumped into the air.

Along the way, I was thinking about what happened to grandma and why Zhu Jianming lied.

But when I arrived at grandma's house, I was dumbfounded.

Grandma was sitting in the living room safe and sound. The dining table was placed in the center of the living room, and the table was filled with wine and food.

There is also a birthday cake in the middle of the table.

When she saw Yuchen and I coming back, grandma smiled and waved to me, "Xiao Xi, it's your birthday today.

After waiting for you for a whole day and you didn't call, I knew you must have forgotten.

It's good to have Yuchen here. He came back so quickly and the food is not cold yet.

Quick, go to Qiao Yuan and blow out the candles.

"

I glanced at the birthday cake on the table, "Grandma, you asked Zhu Jianming to run to me just to get me back quickly and help me celebrate my birthday?"

Grandma nodded.

Although grandma admitted it, I still felt that something was wrong. Grandma was not a careless person. On the contrary, grandma had a bright mind and acted prudently. She asked Zhu Jianming to run errands for such a trivial matter. This in itself was very strange.

Grandma walked to the table, sat down, and said to me, "Xiao Xi, grandma is getting old, and she doesn't have much time to stay with you.

On your birthday, grandma spends it with you only once.

"

Hearing what grandma said, I felt heartbroken and all the strange feelings were forgotten.

I walked over and hugged grandma, "Grandma, you want to live a long life, and you want to stay with me forever."

"

"Silly boy, grandma is a mortal. How many mortals can live to be a hundred years old?

Grandma looked at Yuchen and said with a smile, "Xiao Xi, grandma can rest assured that Yuchen is with you."

"

While talking, grandma asked Yuchen to come over and sit down.

Then, she stood up and poured a glass of wine for Yuchen herself, "Yuchen, I will ask you to take more care of Xiao Xi from now on. She is still a child and willfully behaves. Please be more patient with her.

"

Hearing ordinary things about funeral arrangements makes me feel very uncomfortable.

I hugged grandma and was so scared that tears welled up in my eyes, "Grandma, don't scare me, I'm not going anywhere, I'll stay by your side."
