afraid of me." He scoffed.It seems I'm not the only one who's still feeling uneasy about what happened before. He's also quite awkward about it.Such a massive project, such a paradise hidden in plain...It's true, I haven't been traveling back and forth as much lately. Plus, being pampered with delicious food and drinks at home by my fifth and sixth sisters has definitely made me put on some weight.
"It's almost there, but it's not time to go out yet. Besides, we're not that delicate."
Lin Gongzi nodded, tidied up the various documents on her desk, and asked, “You rarely come over once, are you going to see your junior sister-in-law I'm just going to the Shen family, I can take you there.”
"Huh Is the young mistress at the Shen residence"
"Yes, coincidentally, I also have something to ask her about the strange and eerie abandoned village near your home. I want to see if the Shen family can handle it. Since you're here, why don't we discuss it together" Lin Gongzi looked at me.
Lin Yanhuan is the kind of person who you can't tell their age.
Why do I say so It's probably because I've seen too many people seeking medical treatment and recuperation at home. Most of them can "look at someone's face" to tell something about their health.
Our ancestors always said that one's appearance reflects their inner self. Besides genetics, a person's external environment, aura, psychological factors, and physical health can all influence someone's "appearance".
Why do criminals have sinister and cold eyes, while heroes have clear and noble gazes
The chronically ill are burdened with worries and anxieties, while the poor and destitute wear expressions of despair.
A wealthy and honorable family…
I've never seen anyone like Master Lin from such a wealthy and noble family.
His countenance showed no hint of anything "unfavorable". His aura was pure, devoid of any trace of evil or malice. Physically, he appeared to be in excellent condition, the kind of person who adheres strictly to self-discipline.
If you really want to describe him, he probably has the appearance of a young man with great bearing, but the mindset of an old man who understands the rules.
"Why are you taking me with you if you're going to see the junior mistress This is something between you two, and I have no place interfering." I said bluntly.
Lin Gongzi's mouth twitched slightly, and she gave a faint smile: "The Shen family is indeed a giant in the yin-yang circle, but my identity cannot enter such places at will. Taking you with me, using your name to pay homage to the mountain gate would be much more convenient."
“......That’s so much trouble, why not just give the young mistress a call and have her come over here.”
"How could I possibly ask her to work I heard her young child is sick, and I couldn't be so heartless as to call her out... Are you going"
When I heard that the little one was sick, I felt a pang of worry. Was it You Nan or Lan Xi "You didn't say anything sooner!" I said, feeling anxious. "Of course we have to visit them..."
Mu Wanchen knew I was going to the Shen family, so he nodded and said, "Wherever you go, I'll accompany you."
Miss Lin arranged a private car for the two of us. After all, the Shen family's place was rather special. It seemed disrespectful to the Emperor to simply pass through the back entrance, so it was best to stick to the main gate.
The atmosphere at the Shen family's place was very clear, after all, the scenic area was just a "front", and the Shen family's main business wasn't here.
The large manor house had stone steps and a mountain gate, looking very formal. Behind the gate was a path with a young attendant on duty. As soon as we were seen from afar, one of the attendants ran over to greet us.
Upon hearing that we were friends of the "head of household," they immediately invited us in and went to summon others.
The little wife came to the main hall to greet us: "How did you all get together"
"I went to find Young Master Lin to hand in my assignment, and Young Master Lin kindly brought me here to visit you." I made some polite conversation and then whispered, "I heard that the junior disciple is ill"
The young mistress frowned slightly and said, "I don't know what's going on either. Lanxi has had a fever for the past two days. She might have caught a cold. I've been taking care of her these past few days... You guys are really well-informed."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“I called Muyunfan and he told me about it,” Lin Gongzi replied. “I was also wondering what the Shen family thought of the sinister energy in that area, after all, you are a trusted family… plus, I heard your child is sick, so I came to visit.”
Lánxī, the young son of the junior mistress, was just over a year old. He couldn't walk steadily yet and was very much loved in the Shen family. Normally, there were many people taking care of him both openly and secretly. However, the junior mistress was quite busy now, and sometimes she couldn't look after her child herself. She felt some guilt about this.
"I've been keeping an eye on things with Xiao Lu'er, and I even asked Jiang Qiyun about the deserted village. He said it was a karmic field for humans, where there had been a war in the past, with too many soldiers dying unjustly. Back then, it was on the border, and with corpses strewn everywhere, no one performed a soul-saving ceremony for them. That's why that area has always been barren and desolate. There are also some deeper reasons behind building a village there...but he didn't tell me." The junior wife said helplessly, pursing her lips.
It's not too unusual. It's already a great blessing that the Emperor has deigned to speak to us, even just a few words. Anyway, we've long since let go of our expectations.
When the time comes, fate will bring us together naturally.
"Also, when I told Jiang Qiyun about establishing a village there, he only reminded me to pay attention to feng shui and leave some space for faith. He didn't say anything else."
"This means we're bringing the Earth God back, right At least protecting our land is essential for prosperity and growth." I patted my head and said, "My village doesn't even have an Earth God. And all the boundary markers are blank. There aren't any deities guarding the land…"
The young wife looked at me with a smile: "Well, you admit that's your deserted village, don't you"
"...What else can I do"
"I brought the plan, you can take a look." Lin Gongzi took out his phone to show Xiao Shi Niang.
"Little sister-in-law, are you looking at this to seal a red envelope" I patted my forehead.
The little wife glared at me and said, "What red envelope do you want when you're looking at things!"
Then I'll pack some for my younger brother and sister, hehe.
"Just forget it, when you have children, I'll still have to help you with… By the way, when are you planning on having children" The junior mistress looked at me, then at Mu Wanchen.
Mu Wanchen replied, "It should be at the end of this month or early next month... It's hard to say, after all, with poison on my body, I can't count it by ordinary circumstances."
They chatted for a while, and I sat uncomfortably in the rocking chair, fidgeting constantly. Mu Wanchen saw this and got up and said, “I’ll take you back first.”
"No, wait a moment and have dinner together." The young wife persuaded: "Let me take a look at this plan first. It's rare to see Mr. Lin in person, so I might as well ask him directly. If Little Luo gets tired, she can walk around here for a bit. We'll have dinner together later."
This Ling Mountain with its beautiful scenery is a great oxygen bar for a pregnant woman. I walked slowly in the front yard with Mu Wanchen, admiring the buildings and flowers here, and taking a breath of fresh mountain air.
"After living here for a while, people all seem to carry an ethereal air about them." I said.
"...Actually, Taoism emphasizes both detachment from and engagement with the world. It not only allows for transcendence of worldly affairs through cultivation but also enables one to enter the world and alleviate suffering. This also requires possessing worldly wisdom."
As I was walking and talking, something suddenly flew over and nearly hit me—""Heaven, earth, gods, humans, ghosts, and five immortals; scaled creatures, hairy ones, feathered ones, insects of the five kinds."This is the classification of immortals by ancient sages, as well as...
