Chapter 226 Happy
Chapter 226 Happy
Where are the people? How did they disappear? It must be the gods who came down to earth. They played in the lake and left.
"Mom, have the fairies left? Will they come back? They dance so beautifully in the water. I like them. Let's go to the lake and wait for them tomorrow." A little girl said innocently.
The people at the lakeside were still dazed by the beauty. Had the immortal left? Did immortals really exist? If not, what had they just witnessed? How could someone fly over a lake, not fall into the water, and even dance on it? Who could do that?
The gods have come to our city and brought us good luck.
Qiqi and Zhou Jingze had no idea that their playfulness would bring a beautiful legend to this city. Later, the local storyteller would tell these stories as if they were gods descending to earth.
Xie Lei got up early in the morning and told the guards to load the carriage and harness it. He quickly ate and then set off.
"Yes, sir." They called each other sir, madam, etc. outside.
Qiqi and Zhou Jingze finished washing up and went to the private room. Their parents and uncle were already there, drinking tea and waiting for them. Their two sisters-in-law and three children were also playing and waiting for them.
"Dad, mother, uncle, and sister-in-law, you can eat first. Your nephew and niece are hungry too. Don't wait for us in the future." Qiqi said.
"Okay, okay, I won't wait for you next time. Dinner is ready," the mother said to the children. They were really hungry.
Xie Lei also packed his luggage and had dinner together.
Soon they were on their way. The three children all stuck their heads out to look at the bustle of the city. Different cities have different bustles.
Qiqi also saw their playful intentions. She put on her hood, and Zhou Jingze put on his mask. They asked the guards to stop the car. The two of them got out and called the three children out.
They had the guards drive the carriage outside the city to wait for them. Xie Lei also dismounted, and Qiqi asked him to follow the carriage to protect their parents, uncle, and sisters-in-law. The two of them left a few guards behind and walked with the children, looking around and buying anything they liked, satisfying the children's curiosity.
The three children walked ahead, watching. Qiqi and Zhou Jingze followed behind. The guards soon had a lot of things in their hands.
Qiqi also bought a lot of cakes for the three children so that they, their parents, uncle and sister-in-law could eat some snacks when they were hungry on the road.
Zhou Jingze saw someone selling candied haws and bought a bunch. He gave one to each of the three children and one to Qiqi.
Qiqi smiled and took it, eating it with great satisfaction. "Brother Jingze, you haven't forgotten that I like to eat candied haws. Thank you!"
The three children ate the candied haws and laughed heartily. They ran along happily, as cheerful as birds out of a cage. They stopped to look at anything new they saw, but they didn't clamor for anything to buy.
The guards behind bought everything they had seen. Qiqi got off the car and gave them a lot of silver notes, telling them to buy everything the children had seen.
Qiqi is a truly competent aunt, except she doesn't have time for the kids. This time, I'll let them shop. Buy as much as they want. As long as they're happy, that's all.
Soon they reached the city gate. The three children looked back at the city. Qiqi saw them and smiled. It seemed the three children hadn't seen enough. They would get off the bus at the next town and buy more.
"Children, your grandparents and mother are waiting for you. You can't let them wait too long." Qiqi said to them.
"Aunt, let's go quickly. We can't let grandpa and grandma wait for us." Xie Shangen said.
"Okay, let's leave the city. They're waiting for us outside. Let's go."
They soon spotted the carriage, which had stopped beside the city gate. They quickly arrived in front of the carriage. Several guards placed the items the children had chosen on their respective carriages. They also placed some cakes on the carriages.
Qiqi also took a few boxes of cakes and gave them to the guards. The guards were touched to see that they had their own cakes too. "Thank you, Princess, thank you, Prince."
Zhou Jingze also laughed. They all got into the car. "Qiqi, your prestige among the guards is higher than that of me, the Crown Prince. Look, they called me Crown Princess first, and then Crown Prince. I'm jealous."
"Hahaha. Who told you to have such a stern face every day? Just smile at them from now on." Qiqi pulled Zhou Jingze over and pinched his face. Then she smiled, which made Zhou Jingze laugh too.
This time, the children were the only ones who were happy. Auntie had the guards buy everything they liked. They all shouted with joy in the carriage.
The guards were also clever. They each took the items that the children liked. They didn't take anything randomly, so they could put them in the car and not have to divide them among them. Qiqi also saw their division of labor and admired the guards' cleverness. She hadn't thought of these little things. The guards were very meticulous. When Qiqi got on the car, she took out a bottle of elixir that increased cultivation and gave it to the guard leader, asking them to distribute it to everyone to increase their cultivation.
The head guard bowed to Qiqi repeatedly, thanking her for her training.
In the car, the little ones were looking at their toys, their school bags, their hair jewelry, and the many educational toys. They were having so much fun playing that they didn't even realize they were hungry. Only when their grandmother and mother gave them some cakes did they feel hungry.
Their carriage was moving smoothly. With her parents there, Qiqi didn't dare go to the space anymore. They were going to have lunch together, and if her parents couldn't see her, they'd get suspicious. She and Zhou Jingze were also responsible for their safety.
Soon, their car reached the edge of a forest. In the distance, there was a small river. The water was very clear. Zhou Jingze asked the guards to park the car by the river so they could cook a hot pot.
The guards quickly divided up their duties. Some set up the pot. Others went to the forest to collect firewood. Qiqi's sister-in-law went to the river to wash the vegetables and then took out a knife and cutting board to cut them.
Qiqi also took out a bucket of water and asked the sisters-in-law to use it to cook noodles. No matter how clean the river water was, Qiqi would not let them use it.
Soon the water in the pot boiled, and the noodles were put into the pot. When they were almost cooked, the meatballs were put in to cook, and then the vegetables were put in. The instant noodle seasoning that Qiqi gave was also put into the pot, and soon a large pot of fragrant noodles was cooked.
My sister-in-law first served a bowl of rice to my parents and uncle. Qiqi had already taken out several large mats and spread them on the ground, letting them sit on them to eat.
Soon, everyone was holding a bowl of noodles and eating them with relish. The guards and servants also each held a bowl and ate.
