Everything Is Going Well

After the whole family came to express their thanks, Peng Wei held a special banquet in the mansion and invited people from the Su mansion.

Two days later, Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu made an appointment with the Peng family twins to go hiking together. They originally wanted Gu Ling to take them there, but Gu Ling said he was not free. He and Su Liang were concentrating on researching a new drug. In the end, It was decided that Qiu Jing and Cheng Yun would take their four children to Wangxiang Mountain.

When it was time to set off, there were two more people in the team, one was Min Rou who came here specially, and the other was Wen Ran.

Of course Qiu Jing was very happy, but Cheng Yun thought it was a coincidence. His family probably didn't know about him and Wen Ran.

"It's the two aunts we invited!" Ji Xiaoshu said with a smile, "It's fun when there are many people!"

"Very good." Chengyun nodded in agreement, his eyes passing over Wen Ran again. The skirt she wore today was very nice. She had never seen it before, and her hair style was different from before.

We didn't prepare a carriage either. There were four of us, and we happened to be riding horses with four children. Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu both had their own ponies, but since Ashin and Ale didn't, they didn't ride alone today.

Qiu Jing said that he would give each of his two apprentices a good horse as a gift. They are all very happy.

The weather is fine, the sun is shining, and the wind is warm.

The four adults and four children dismounted at Guangwangxiang Mountain. Ashin and Ah Le couldn't help but marvel when they looked at the high mountain top surrounded by clouds and mist. The mountains on Xingluo Island are not high. They had seen high mountains all the way to the capital, but this was their first opportunity to climb a mountain and they were looking forward to it.

The four children got off their horses and rushed forward. Ji Xiaoshu, who was running at the front, shouted, "Quick! Let's see who gets too tired to walk first!"

Zheng'er walked behind Ashin and Ale, reminding them to watch the road and be careful where they step. The mountain road was not smooth, and both he and Ji Xiaoshu were very familiar with it.

Behind them are Min Rou and Wen Ran, who are holding their arms affectionately. Min Rou and Qiu Jing had just come here to play the day before yesterday, and this was the first time Wen Ran came back. However, she had often followed Wen Ming into the mountains to collect herbs since she was a child, and she was quite experienced in mountaineering.

Qiu Jing and Cheng Yun tied up their horses and walked side by side at the end, chatting as they walked. Listening to the laughter of the children in front, their eyes fell on the two smiling girls in front from time to time.

"Are you moving out after you get married next month?" Chengyun asked.

Qiu Jing nodded, "We're getting married outside. Qi Yan has already helped buy a house. It's not big, and it's all packed up."

It was quite lively now that everyone gathered in the Su Mansion, but Qiu Jing felt that he still needed to have his own family when he got married, so it was not appropriate for Min Rou to marry into the Su Mansion. Even if I come back to live occasionally after getting married. Besides, he also hopes to have a good life as a couple.

Qi Jun and Liao Dong, who were married before, and Qi Yan and Nangong Qian, who were also about to get married, all bought houses outside.

"That's good." Chengyun nodded.

"What about you?" Qiu Jing asked.

Chengyun was stunned for a moment, and his eyes fell on Wen Ran again. I feel like denying it seems like lying, but admit it, the two of them are still in the "trying it out" stage and haven't decided yet.

"Let nature take its course," Cheng Yun said.

Qiu Jing showed a meaningful smile. Nowadays, one of the great pleasures of the family, old and young, is to share the love progress of Cheng Yun and Wen Ran. They also see that they thought they secretly went to the woods. As long as Wen Ran cooks, Cheng Yun immediately runs to light the fire to help... No one can see through it. Speaking of which, I find it very interesting and want to see when these two will confess.

Ashin and Ale's bodies were not as strong as Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu. It was their first time climbing a mountain and they ran a little fast at first. They got tired after not going very far.

Ji Xiaoshu, who ran to the front, turned back and comforted them, "It's okay. Senior Brother and I have been here ten or eight times. The first time we came back, we felt too tired and couldn't walk! We can come here often to play in the future." alright!"

"Brother Xiaoshu is so awesome!" A Le looked at Ji Xiaoshu with admiration, "You're not even tired!"

Ji Xiaoshu chuckled, "Just so so!"

Qiu Jing and Cheng Yun stepped forward and carried the twins on their backs one by one, telling them to take a rest and then leave on their own.

Halfway through, he stopped to rest. Wen Ran took out the water and let the children drink it first, then gave it to Qiu Jing and Cheng Yun. After bringing food, the children said they were not hungry and would eat at the top of the mountain.

As they walked, they arrived at the waterfall and stream where Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu were first taken by Gu Ling to look for tadpoles.

Qiu Jing and Chengyun put the twins down, and the four children rushed to the water's edge.

Ji Xiaoshu quickly caught a tadpole, held it together with his hands and showed it to Ashin and Ale, "What do you think this is?"

Ashin and Ale were both confused. There may be one on Xingluo Island, but they have never seen it, and no one has taken them to look for it.

"This is a tadpole, it won't bite." Zheng'er said with a smile, "You can touch it."

Then, the four adults sat nearby and rested, listening to Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu explaining to the twins what tadpoles are, what they will become when they grow up, and the story of tadpoles looking for their mother.

Min Rou said with a smile, "I don't know tadpoles even when I'm this old. No one taught me about tadpoles. Zheng'er and Xiaoshu know more than us."

Wen Ran nodded, "I have seen them before, and I know they will turn into frogs when they grow up, but I don't know as much as they do."

Not only that, along the way, Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu will also introduce the herbs they discovered to the twins.

Finally, the group reached the top of the mountain before noon.

"Go hunting, or there will be no meat to eat." Min Rou said to Qiu Jing and Cheng Yun. The last time she came with Qiu Jing, Qiu Jing had killed a rabbit, which he roasted and brought salt and spices. It was delicious.

Today, Qiu Jing also brought spices that Gu Ling personally prepared, as well as a bow and arrow. Upon hearing this, he went to look for prey with Cheng Yun.

Min Rou and Wen Ran found a flat area with soft grass where they could bask in the sun. There was also a big rock next to it where they could place food, and they spread the picnic mats they brought.

Ji Xiaoshu, who loved climbing trees, had already demonstrated his climbing skills to his new friends, and then came down to teach the twins how to climb trees.

"Be careful not to fall." Wen Ran reminded.

Zheng Er responded, "Don't worry, Aunt Ran, I will take good care of my brothers."

"Zheng Er is so sensible." Min Rou praised.

When Axin and Ale learned to climb trees, the four children climbed up the trees and looked at the beautiful scenery below the mountain. Qiu Jing and Chengyun came back with a pheasant and a hare.

"Master!" Ale called Qiu Jing while sitting on the tree, smiling so much that his eyes narrowed.

Qiu Jing raised the plump hare in his hand, "Come down, let's barbecue together!"

Zhenger went down first, and caught his brother below, fearing that they would fall, and then the four children went to help.

When the pheasants and hares were roasted fragrantly, the picnic began.

"It smells so good, what is this?" Axin asked Qiu Jing holding a small bottle in his hand. The bottle cap had two layers, and the second layer had many small round holes, which could evenly sprinkle the powder in the bottle on the barbecue.

"This is the barbecue spice made exclusively by my master, and the bottle was also made by my master." Ji Xiaoshu said.

"Uncle Gu is really omnipotent!" Axin exclaimed.

After tasting the delicious barbecue, Axin and Ale felt that they had never eaten such delicious food before. Four rabbit legs were divided among the four children, and Qiu Jing broke off a chicken leg and handed it to Min Rou.

Min Rou shook her head, "I'll eat chicken wings."

"What do you want to eat?" Cheng Yun asked Wen Ran.

"I'll eat chicken wings, too." Wen Ran said.

The two chicken legs were finally given to A Xin and A Le. Cheng Yun and Qiu Jing ate most of the others. In addition, there were fruits brought by Wen Ran and snacks brought by Min Rou.

After the picnic, Qiu Jing and Min Rou sat side by side on the cliff to watch the scenery, and the four children played games together.

After Cheng Yun helped Wen Ran pack up, the two sat on the rocks and talked.

"Family members, they probably don't know yet, right?" Cheng Yun said.

Wen Ran laughed when he heard it, "Do you really think they don't know?"

Cheng Yun blinked, "You mean..."

"They all know." Wen Ran said calmly, "but they didn't point it out, and wanted to see when we would explain it."

Cheng Yun coughed lightly, "Is this... so obvious?"

"Living under the same roof, what do you think?" Wen Ran chuckled.

"Then...should we confess?" Cheng Yun asked in a low voice, tilting his head towards Wen Ran, and smelled a faint fragrance.

"I don't care. It's fun now. They think it's interesting that we're sneaking around, and I think it's interesting that they think we don't know." Wen Ran shrugged, "But whether to say it or not, and when to say it, is up to you."

Cheng Yun couldn't help laughing when he heard Wen Ran's words, "Indeed, it's very interesting. Then let's not say it, and see who can't help but make it clear first."

"Then I think it should be my grandfather. If nothing unexpected happens, he will talk to you soon." Wen Ran made such a judgment based on his understanding of Wen Ming. Wen Ming respects Wen Ran very much. Wen Ran didn't take the initiative to talk about his relationship, and Wen Ming wouldn't ask Wen Ran, but he would definitely ask Cheng Yun what he wanted to do and whether he was serious.

Chengyun got nervous when he heard it, "What will your grandfather talk to me about? If he asks, how should I answer?"

Wen Ran smiled, "What are you afraid of? Just say whatever you think."

"Then are we... sure?" Chengyun asked nervously.

"I think it's not bad, what do you think?" Wen Ran reached out to take the leaves that fell on Chengyun's head.

Chengyun nodded immediately, "I think it's very good."

Axin's voice suddenly came from behind the two of them, "Aunt Ran, do you have any more water?"

Wen Ran immediately stood up, "Yes. There are two more fruits, do you want to eat?"

Axin drank two sips of water, took the two fruits, and ran to the three friends not far away.

The four of them shared the fruits, and Axin said to Ji Xiaoshu, "Brother Xiaoshu, I heard Uncle Yun said that he thought it was very good."

Ji Xiaoshu smiled, "It seems that Uncle Chengyun can get married this year, which is a good thing."

"Are Uncle Yun and Aunt Ran a couple?" A Le asked curiously.

Zheng'er covered Ale's mouth, "Keep your voice down, they haven't made it public yet, Master's wife said this is called an underground relationship."

"Why not make it public?" Axin was puzzled.

Ji Xiaoshu clasped his hands together and said seriously, "Maybe Uncle Chengyun returned to secular life too thoroughly, and he was afraid that the Buddha would blame him, so he wanted to give the Buddha more time to accept his changes."

Zheng'er knocked Ji Xiaoshu's forehead, "Don't talk nonsense."

"I think what Brother Xiaoshu said makes sense!" Ale expressed his support for Ji Xiaoshu.

Ji Xiaoshu hugged Ale and rubbed his head, "Haha! I'm talking nonsense, don't take it seriously!"

On the way down the mountain, Qiu Jing and Chengyun hunted a few more prey.

After coming down from the mountain, Qiu Jing first sent Min Rou home and gave her a pheasant to take back to honor Minister Min. Then they sent the twins back to Peng Mansion together, leaving two more game animals.

"Master, can you give us some of the most delicious spices?" Ashin wanted Peng Wu to try the delicious barbecue they had eaten.

Qiu Jing gave them the spice bottle he was carrying. Gu Ling made it and still has it at home.

When Peng Wu came out to pick up the child, Qiu Jing and the others had already left, saying they would come over as guests another day.

"Mom, we went hiking today. It's such a high mountain!"

"We couldn't walk on the road, so it was Master and Uncle Yun who carried us up! Brother Zheng'er and Brother Xiaoshu showed us tadpoles. We will see them again later. The tadpoles will grow into frogs!"

"The barbecue uses the spices made by Uncle Gu, which is the most delicious in the world! Here, Master gave us the spices!"

The smile on Peng Wu's lips never fell. Xingluo Island is a closed place. Her children have never seen the outside world since they were young. Fortunately, mother and son met good people. Now the children are happy every day. Seeing their smiling faces, she feels the pain of the past. The pain isn't worth it anymore.

…

Feng Ming returned to the capital a few days later than Su Liang expected. It was already night when he got home. He walked in dusty and looked a lot thinner. He has been traveling for a long time.

"Master, Prince." Feng Ming bowed his hands in salute.

Yuanming Pavilion was having dinner, and Zhu Zan immediately came up to meet him, "How is it? Did everything go well? Are you not injured?"

Feng Ming smiled and shook his head, "No, no! Things went very smoothly. It just took a little effort to help the two old people find their sons! Their sons are still alive and have married a long time ago. Their grandchildren are not young anymore. It's just that they went to live with relatives many years ago. Settled somewhere else.”

"That's good." Su Liang nodded, "You go and wash up first, come over for dinner, and we'll talk about the rest later."

Zhu Zan accompanied Feng Ming to the kitchen to fetch water for washing, and told him about the situation at home.

"The Peng family just happened to move to the capital? What a coincidence and great!" Feng Ming was very happy when he heard this, "Miss Peng finally came to the end of her hardships."

"They asked about you earlier and said they would like to thank you when you come back." Zhu Zan helped Feng Ming fetch water.

Feng Ming shook his head, "No need to thank me, it's all thanks to the prince and Mr. Qiu."

Zhu Zan patted Feng Ming on the shoulder, "I'm still looking for a chance to treat you to a drink!"

Feng Ming nodded, "I have to drink your wine!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

…

Two days after Feng Ming came back, Gu Ling and Su Liang had news about Sheng Yue: outside the back door of Kasyapa City Lin Mansion, several corpses were dumped one after another. They were all men, old and young. The same thing was A bloody six-pointed star symbol was carved on his face with a knife.

The six-pointed star is the symbol of Xingluo Island. Although no one saw Sheng Yue, Gu Ling and Su Liang knew that this must be Sheng Yue's handiwork when they received the news. Sheng Yue also informed them in this way: he was completing the task assigned by Gu Ling.

"Most of those who left Xingluo Island should be in the south. It is expected that Sheng Yue will be able to clear out the remnants next month and come to the capital." Su Liang analyzed.

Gu Ling nodded, "When the time comes, let him appreciate Nuannuan's transformation into a living person."

Su Liang coughed lightly, "He will be hit hard. After all, he is also a descendant of a time traveler, but it just doesn't work."

"This is the effect we want." Gu Ling said calmly.

Su Liang smiled slightly, "Master, do you still remember how cold and cold you were when you first met me?"

Gu Ling shook his head, "Actually, I'm just pretending."
