Fragrance is good for purifying the heart

Chapter 68
At this moment, voices came from outside the house. It was the Qi couple who had returned.

When they saw Gardenia coming, they were all overjoyed. Aunt Feng cooked a meal at home, stir-fried some side dishes, cooked a carp freshly caught from the river, and invited Gardenia to eat with them.

At the dinner table, some interesting daily stories about An He at home were also discussed. Aunt Feng's words clearly revealed her love for An He, without the slightest hint of dislike.Although Qi Laosan didn't talk much, it could be seen that he was very concerned about An He's physical condition.

So, Gardenia reiterated the fact that she had checked Anhe's pulse, "You two, don't worry, Xiao An is in good health and has no disease."

"Let me tell you, my An'er just grows faster than ordinary people. He grows so fast, maybe he is a god..." Aunt Feng said with a smile while putting some gardenias into the bowl. Had a piece of braised fish.

"That's nonsense..." Qi Laosan interrupted Aunt Feng, "Originally, other doctors said that we were destined to have no children, but since it is because of you, girl, that we have An'er and can enjoy family happiness, An'er He is also filial, and we are content with that. We only hope that a hundred years from now, he will be able to get married and start a business, and there will be someone around him who knows both coldness and warmth to take care of him..."

"Yes," Gardenia thought for a moment and then said, "In the future... even if there is no one else, I, as the elder sister, will still take care of Xiao An."

Hearing this, An He interjected, "Sister, you must keep your word."

Gardenia stared at his little face, and saw that when he said this, he still had a shy look on his face, which was really cute. His eyes were as clear as the spring water in Yuquan Township, without any impurities, and he loved Xiao An very much in his heart. After adding some, she smiled and nodded when she saw that he was seriously waiting for her response.

That night, Gardenia was not in a hurry to return to Taixu Mountain. Firstly, Anhe was very attached to her. Secondly, she herself missed Anhe very much. Furthermore, she and her master went down the mountain to practice in various sects. I don’t know how long it will be before I see Xiao An again.

So Gardenia stayed at the Qi couple's house that night.

At night, Anhe stood in front of her room holding a big pillow. When Gardenia opened the door, she happened to see him looking awkward and cautious:

"I want to...sister, can I sleep with my sister tonight?"

He begged softly, then lowered his head to look at his toes, as if he was afraid of Gardenia's rejection, with an expression like a pitiful little puppy.

Gardenia remembered the scene when he was just born in that magical sea of ​​flowers. She hugged him happily. His milky white hair, chubby little face, and a pair of big black shiny eyes stared at Gardenia intently. , as if he was afraid that Gardenia would not want him.

Gardenia never regarded him as a 12-year-old boy, but only thought of him when he was young. She smiled, patted her bed, and said, "Come on--"

Anhe happily dragged the big pillow, climbed onto her bed, and snuggled up with Gardenia, head to head.

When he stayed by her side, he seemed very at ease and safe. Not long after, his subtle breathing was heard, and he said vaguely, "Sister... No one will take care of Xiao An in the future. You have to take care of me." I oh..."

Gardenia touched his short cow-white hair, kissed him gently, coaxed him in a low voice, and said half seriously and half jokingly: "My little An is so cute, how come no one wants it? He will definitely be very popular in the future." If girls like it, maybe it can be used by both men and women."

An He seemed to understand her words while half asleep. He hugged her hand and whispered softly: "I don't want others to like me. I just want my sister to like me..."

After spending another day with Anhe, Gardenia said goodbye to the Qi family and his wife and prepared to return to Taixu Mountain.

An He stood at the door, holding back the tears in her eyes, patting her chest and saying, "Sister, go ahead. Xiao An has grown up and won't cling to your sister." Gardenia saw his pretending to be strong. , sighed, spread out one palm, and condensed mana from the palm. Even if a message-transmitting paper crane book appeared in an instant, it still looked like a folded paper crane.

Because she was about to separate from her younger brother Xiao An, Gardenia specially chose a paper crane made of faint blue paper, which symbolizes a touch of sadness and longing.

She coaxed him: "From now on, whenever Xiao An misses her sister, just talk to the paper crane, and her sister will know."

"Really?" A look of surprise appeared on An He's face. He took the paper crane handed over by Gardenia and held it tightly in his hand, as if he was worried, and held it like a treasure. Into my arms, close to my heart.

In fact, the sound-transmitting paper crane that Gardenia gave him only had a trace of her magic power left on it. An He could speak to the sound-transmitting paper crane, but if he didn't condense his magic power and reopen the paper crane, he wouldn't be able to listen. To what Anhe said.

The reason why Gardenia said that was just because she didn't want to see An He being too sad because she missed her.

Sneaking back to Taixu Mountain, she avoided others and returned to Xiaozhulou, where she planned to study the Earth-Binding Cold Thorn Secret Technique and Cangyun Jiugong Sword Technique taught by her master. As soon as she entered the Xiaozhulou, she saw a floating figure floating in the sky. A message-carrying paper crane hangs in the air.

She frowned unconsciously, concentrated her magic power slightly in the palm of her hand, caught the sound-transmitting paper crane book floating in mid-air, opened it gently, and Master Beimian's voice came from it:
"Prajna Seaside, my teacher will be waiting for you for three days."

Gardenia was a little confused as to why the master didn't directly pass the paper crane message book to her through magic, but instead kept it in this small bamboo building.He said it would be limited to three days, and it was already the third day.

I wonder if Master is still waiting for her at Prajna Sea.

She brought up the White Rainbow Sword. Because the small bamboo building was very close to the Prajna Sea, she didn't have a sword. She just hurried to the Prajna Sea, stood by the surging river and looked around, but there was no sign of her master.

"Master - where are you?" She tried calling Beimian, but still no one answered, "Master... my disciple is late, are you there?"

She stood at the Prajna Sea and waited for a long time, but still could not see Beimian. She was a little anxious, so she took up the Baihong Sword and flew crookedly through the large peach forest behind the Prajna Sea to look for him.

At this time, the peach blossoms were in full bloom, and the pink and white colors were moving with the wind, floating in the air, like rising cherry-colored snowflakes, carrying a faint fragrance. When the Gardenia Royal Sword flew by, I couldn't help but be attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of me.

She walked around the peach blossom forest but didn't see Master Beimian. She simply put away the Baihong Sword and walked through the peach blossom forest. She planned to walk for a while and then go to Prajna Seaside to see if she could find Beimian. Crown.

As I walked, I was attracted by a cluster of pink and white peach blossom trees.

It was a peach blossom with a low body, and a branch full of peach blossoms stretched out across the path. The branches were covered with pink and white peach petals. When the gardenia ducked by, the faint fragrance It came to my nose.

Gardenia felt very comfortable in her heart, and she brought her nose closer to smell the low peach petals. Suddenly, two large hands appeared behind her, holding her shoulders, thick and warm, "Gardenia... you are here." .”
