Chapter 2919: Chapter 2920: Cliff Village Folk Descend the Mountain
The woman walked out from behind the stall, somewhat excitedly grabbing Bai Ruozhu’s arm, "We all know now, that so-called Immortal Land, it’s all a lie!"
"How did you know?" Bai Ruozhu was pleased with the outcome, but surprised at how they suddenly figured it out.
"One day during daylight, suddenly those old friends all returned, we all found it strange, then they just couldn’t leave again. At first, people said it was because my son Zhao Shu left the Village and upset the fairy, so these wandering souls couldn’t stay in the Immortal Land anymore. But later, when everyone talked more about it, we realized they weren’t in any Immortal Land before, they were staying right in Xunyang City," Zhao Shuniang said, her eyebrows dancing with excitement.
Bai Ruozhu instantly understood, it was on the day they took the Luo Family away, that all the wandering souls disappeared, they had gone to Cliff Village.
"Sir, where is my Zhao Shu? I went looking for you all before and was told you went to the Battlefield, scared me to death." She showed a worried expression, "Why isn’t Zhao Shu with you, did something happen on the Battlefield?"
Little Dengdeng tilted his head and said, "Lady, the three of us were out shopping, how would we bring others along? He’s naturally with his master, learning diligently."
Zhao Shuniang was overjoyed, looking at Dengdeng with great fondness, "The child from your family is indeed beautiful, this is the stall for my business, I don’t have anything good to offer, please have a bowl of noodles."
As she spoke, she hurriedly went to cook, Bai Ruozhu declined several times, but she wouldn’t stop, insistently cooking three bowls of noodles and placing them before the three.
"Zhao Shu is in the Guest House, he doesn’t know you’re down here, you should hurry to see him," Bai Ruozhu said.
"Alright, I’ll go right away." Zhao Shuniang was too excited, she didn’t even remove her apron or bother about the stall, turning around and running off.
Bai Ruozhu watched, dumbfounded, and couldn’t help but think of her own mother, she leaned her head on Jiang Yichun’s shoulder, saying, "I miss my parents, we should hurry back to Beiyu City once we’re in the Capital."
"Sure, there are two little ones too, you’re too biased as a mother," Jiang Yichun said.
"Alright, alright, alright, just you as the dad showing so much love for your sons."
Bai Ruozhu cautiously checked the noodles to ensure there was no problem, then the three ate some along with the hot soup, after eating, they worried again about what to do with the stall?
"Muyu, watch the stall and sell noodles until Zhao Family returns," Jiang Yichun instructed.
"Huh?" Muyu had a headache, "Master, I can’t cook noodles."
"If you can’t, learn, it’s not like you’re asked to take care of women, why do you have so many complaints? Do a good job, don’t ruin people’s business." Jiang Yichun emphasized.
"Yes, yes, yes." Muyu finally understood, his master was venting for his wife, daring him to oppose her arrangements, daring him not to respect her.
But cooking noodles was better than having to carry women, his Princess was also the jealous type, though far away wouldn’t learn anything.
Bai Ruozhu and her family strolled for a while longer before returning to the Guest House, unexpectedly, Zhao Shu’s parents were both still there.
Zhao Shu was about to leave with his parents, seeing them, he bowed, "Sir Jiang, Lady Bai, I’m going back with my parents, I’ll come back before departing tomorrow morning."
"Alright, you go," Bai Ruozhu thought for a moment, "By the way, explain to your parents about Kuai Xian, to avoid suffering losses later."
Since Kuai Xian clung to Zhao Shu, she might cling to Zhao Shu’s parents too.
Her grandfather and parents had come down, perhaps they could redeem her soon, then who knows what will happen.
"Okay, I’ll tell them," Zhao Shu said.
Zhao Shu returned home with his parents, to a very modest little room in the City, they had just come down from the mountain, and had no money, if it hadn’t been for Zhao Shu’s father being a carpenter and his mother setting up a noodle stall, they really wouldn’t have a way to make a living.
"Father, Mother, you’ve suffered," Zhao Shu’s eyes reddened as he handed over the silver given by the Astrologer before he left, "Take it, find a better place to live, and use the rest for business."
Zhao Shu’s father shyly pushed it back, "Son, Father was once only thinking of becoming an Immortal, completely deceived, and even wanted to stop you from seeking treatment, I wasn’t a competent parent."
"Father, don’t say that, who in the Village wasn’t deceived?" Zhao Shu replied, "I now have a Yin Yang Master as a teacher, I just want to learn skills to save you, never expected you could come down so soon."
For a moment, he lost direction, even considering staying in Xunyang City when he saw his parents, working with them to lead a mundane life.
But as he walked down the Alley just now, the darkness was heavy, and he immediately used a simple dispersing charm, and his state of mind changed again.
If he hadn’t learned Yin Yang Techniques, he’d just be an ordinary person, though life would come and go mundanely, if anything happened, he’d be ordinary, incapable of protecting his family, would he pretend to be crazy and stupid like in childhood?
"Father, Mother, I should stay and take care of you, but I want to learn Yin Yang Techniques well from my master, only by becoming strong can I give you a better life," Zhao Shu said.
Zhao Shuniang held his hand, "Yes, child, you should go, if you don’t go, I’d be mad at you, I don’t want you to be a nobody forever."
"Once, thinking you were silly, I just wanted you to live safely forever, but now knowing you’re fine and have a famous master, I hope you become more outstanding. You go, we won’t hold you back," Zhao Shuniang added.
Zhao Shu shed tears, but remembering Bai Ruozhu’s advice, he hurriedly wiped his eyes and talked about the entanglements between him and Kuai Xian.
"What’s Kuai girl’s doing in such a place, isn’t she too pitiful?" Zhao Shu’s father’s old habit of being a good person kicked in.
Zhao Shuniang slapped him, "Pitiful my foot, she brought it on herself. Luckily, the village head can’t mess with us anymore, he’s the most cunning, over the years he got plenty of benefits, fooling us together with that Ghost Immortal Family. He wanted our support to be a chief, I’m telling you, definitely don’t soften, don’t get involved at all."
"Alright, alright," Zhao Shu’s father replied.
Zhao Shu secretly remembered this matter and would report back to Bai Ruozhu.
"Oh no, I forgot my stall!" Zhao Shuniang slapped her head, remembering only now, looking at the time, it was almost the third watch.
"Mother, I’ll go with you to close the stall, beyond Xunyang City, you must take care of yourself, don’t work too hard, I’ll send silver regularly," Zhao Shu said.
Zhao Shuniang rubbed her eyes, "No need to send money, eat well, dress well outside, your father and I lack nothing, save some money for your bride."
"I can’t save, I’ll send it to you, you save for me," Zhao Shu said, eyes red.
