The rain outside the house was continuous, just like usual, rootless water flowing from the clouds and beyond.
A spine-devouring beast crouched at the edge of the eaves, rainwater trickling down from its corners, forming a small waterfall. The little beast gazed into the distance, as if guarding the girl inside from being harassed by scoundrels.
"Do I look like the kind of person who publicly displays affection... in broad daylight?" Xu Chang'an twitched slightly at the corner of his eye, frowning as he said, "Why co out in sleepwear?"
He knew Yun Qian's constitution very well—sotis just a breeze of cold wind could give her a chill.
"I wanted to hear what you were talking about with her." Yun Qian squinted slightly and said, "That child seems quite interested in you."
Xu Chang'an covered his face and said helplessly, "That sentence, I also return to you in its entirety, Miss."
He initially thought Gu Qiancheng only appeared to be young, but upon interaction, he realized she might indeed be only around thirteen or fourteen years old.
Who could tell him why a thirteen-year-old girl would fall in love with his wife at first sight?
"Miss, I think you should restrain so of your charm." Xu Chang'an sighed.
"What charm do I have?" Yun Qian looked out at the rainy day and said slowly, "Before eting you, no one liked ."
"Miss stayed on that island all day, eating and sleeping, how could there be anyone else." Xu Chang'an squinted, "So before I arrived, who was taking care of Miss? Was it the Immortal Sect?"
"..." Yun Qian blinked and looked at the brazier in the corner of the room, "What's the plan next."
"Has anyone ever told you that, Miss, your way of changing the topic is quite blunt." Xu Chang'an twitched slightly at the corner of his eye.
"I was asking you a question." Yun Qian raised her head.
"Forget it." Xu Chang'an shook his head and said, holding the Storage Bag in his hand, "Since there is a Storage Pouch given by Steward Zhu, I'm planning to go to the city to prepare so items to take up the mountain."
In the Chaoyun Sect you can buy anything, but mostly with Spirit Stones or Sect Contribution Points, silver is entirely useless, so this ti I can use the Storage Pouch given by Zhu Pingniang to purchase more daily necessities, like drinks, to take up the mountain.
Xu Chang'an naturally didn't drink alcohol on ordinary days, but if he could et with Yun Qian frequently, that would be another matter entirely, after all, Yun Qian just entered the sect and still lived like an ordinary person.
It must be said, Zhu Pingniang truly took great care of him, right off the bat giving him a large space Storage Bag.
A Storage Pouch is not sothing everyone can afford, in the Chaoyun Sect, the smallest storage pouch is only one cubic ter, but it requires ten tis the Contribution Points of a Source Opening Pill to buy, and the price is roughly the sa if converted to Spirit Stones.
So although Xu Chang'an knew having a storage pouch would be much more convenient, in his urgency to break through, he simply couldn't afford one.
Being recruited into the Chaoyun Sect as an ordinary person, Xu Chang'an would be lying if he said he didn't envy those born into factions, but now he had been gifted a vast space by a system, and having this Storage Bag was another kind of ntal realm.
"Go shopping?" Yun Qian asked, "Do you want to co with you?"
Hearing Yun Qian's casual question, Xu Chang'an suddenly realized that since they arrived in Beisang City, they hadn't gone out together at all, and Beisang City was clearly a good place for leisure, but Xu Chang'an still said, "It's still raining, I'll just go myself."
"..." Yun Qian looked at the gloomy rainy day outside and said nothing.
After a simple wash, Yun Qian wrapped a little floral jacket over her sleepwear and followed Xu Chang'an to have breakfast together.
Breakfast was wontons.
Yun Qian stirred with a small spoon, and the wontons in the bowl imdiately beca lively, swirling, and colliding, like little ducks playing in the water under the sunset, very cute.
The wrapper was translucent, as soft and thin as cotton gauze, with the faint sight of tender, reddish filling inside, making the appetite grow.
Yun Qian didn't rush to eat but looked into Xu Chang'an's bowl, where a layer of enticing red oil was floating on the hot soup with green scallion pieces, the thick spicy oil making one's mouth water just by looking at it.
"Can't be happy without spice?" Yun Qian asked.
"Sort of." Xu Chang'an thought for a mont and said, "It's cold, eating sothing spicy can warm up the body, that's a good thing."
"But haven't you been cultivating?" Yun Qian reminded him.
"That too." Xu Chang'an pointed to his face, "Honestly, it's a desire of the taste buds."
What Gu Qiancheng said might not be wrong, because cultivation does lead to fasting without needing to eat, which indeed loses a lot of joy.
"I have a lot of desires." Xu Chang'an looked at Yun Qian in front of him, stretched out five fingers, then retracted two, and said, "I like money, beauty, and food."
"Having desires is a good thing." Yun Qian nodded, then fed the wonton in her spoon to Xu Chang'an's mouth.
"But cultivation is a more important thing, I know Miss you don't care about cultivation." Xu Chang'an said, "But I still hope Miss can... treat it as an important thing in your heart."
"Important in what way?" Yun Qian asked.
"It can improve your constitution."
"Like this?"
Yun Qian took an interest and said, "Can it help bear a child?"
Xu Chang'an twitched at the corner of his mouth, thinking this topic might never end.
He suddenly said, "It should be possible, at least not like yesterday, being out of strength after a quarter of an hour."
"That has nothing to do with constitution, I just have weak legs." Yun Qian calmly said sothing that made Xu Chang'an, a big man, a bit shy.
"So you couldn't stand up?"
"What else."
"..."
Xu Chang'an looked at his wife before him, as vast and clear as the open blue skies, watched those clean, profound eyes and sighed, "After cultivation, with vigorous qi and blood, I personally think the chances of getting pregnant are higher."
"I understand." Yun Qian nodded and said to Xu Chang'an, "I will try to cultivate, are you relieved now?"
"With those words from Miss, I am relieved." Xu Chang'an took a deep breath, then said, "The few people from my sa ti already reached the Open Source Realm, it's because my talent isn't very good, still stuck at Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer... Otherwise, after Open Source Realm, earning Sect Contribution Points would be much quicker, then I could prepare so Spirit Fruits for Miss to improve her constitution."
"I don't quite understand, to , cultivation has no aning." Yun Qian took a bite of her wonton, looked at the boy before her, thought of how he persuaded her to cultivate, lowered her eyes, and gently smiled.
To her before, cultivation had no aning at all, but now it was different.
Cultivation could make her Young Master Xu happy.
Could let Young Master Xu enjoy the achievent of breakthroughs, that was the greatest aning of cultivation for Yun Qian.
In fact, this was also the only aning of existence in this world.
The road should be slowly walked to have aning, just like her husband's na.
Slowly Plan Chang'an.
...
At this ti, after breakfast, Xu Chang'an prepared to drink a little by himself, after all, after going up the mountain temporarily there would be no chance to eat like this with Yun Qian.
He fetched the yellow wine given by the Wine Lady yesterday, drank a bowl like drinking water, only to feel a fragrance lingering in his throat.
The taste was good, just a bit too sweet, he should tell that girl when he leaves, after all, he had promised to give her so suggestions.
After putting down the bowl, he found Yun Qian staring at him.
"Miss, what are you looking at?" Xu Chang'an asked in confusion.
"I was just thinking, we still have a long ti, and many things we can do." Yun Qian glanced at the Daughter Red Wine in Xu Chang'an's hand and frowned, "There are quite a few girls around you, should I... do sothing according to common sense."
The book said that won who get jealous are more likable.
