“Leaving already?”
In the courtyard, Ouyang Ji looked at Gu Changsheng and Yao Xian.
Gu Changsheng smiled and nodded, saying, “We’ve been bothering you for several months already. If we don’t leave now, I’m afraid you’ll be chasing us away.”
Ouyang Ji smiled gently upon hearing this, offering no rebuttal.
“Uncle Gu, Xin’er is going to miss you.”
At this moment, Ouyang Xin walked up to Gu Changsheng, took his hand, her face full of reluctance.
“Xin’er, are you not going to miss me at all?” Yao Xian asked, looking at Ouyang Xin with a hint of grievance.
“Xin’er will also miss Auntie Gu, but Xin’er will miss Uncle Gu the most.” Ouyang Xin said crisply.
“You, I’ve bought you so much candy for nothing.” Yao Xian huffed softly, looking unhappy.
Gu Changsheng, hearing Ouyang Xin's words, laughed heartily and glanced triumphantly at Yao Xian, who simply rolled her eyes at him.
Gu Changsheng squatted down, pinched Ouyang Xin's tender and adorable little face, and said, “Since you’ll miss Uncle Gu, then practice the magic that Uncle Gu taught you diligently. When you become stronger in the future, you can come and play with Uncle Gu anytime.”
“How strong do I have to be?” Ouyang Xin hadn't yet formed a concept of what strength meant.
“Stronger than your daddy will do.” Gu Changsheng said with a smile.
Ouyang Ji glared at Gu Changsheng upon hearing this. This old drunkard was setting a trap for his daughter. Stronger than him? When would that be?
But it was also good to give Xin’er a goal to strive for from a young age, which was a hundred times better than having no goal at all.
“That’s great! I will practice diligently and strive to surpass Daddy as soon as possible, and then go play with Uncle Gu.”
Ouyang Xin agreed very naively.
“Then you must work hard!” Gu Changsheng ruffled her hair, then noticed that Ouyang Xin's neck was empty. So, with a wave of his hand, a jade pendant exuding an ancient aura appeared in his hand. He personally put it around Ouyang Xin's neck and said, “This is the Longevity Jade. It can bless Xin’er with good luck in the future, and you can even get free candied hawthorns when you go to the street.”
“Really?”
Speaking of candied hawthorns, Ouyang Xin's eyes lit up instantly, like stars in the night sky, twinkling.
“Really.” Gu Changsheng laughed.
At this moment, Feng Xi walked over and said, “Brother Gu, this gift is too precious.”
She was not a little girl like Ouyang Xin. She could feel an incredibly rich aura of luck from that jade pendant. Normally, ordinary people would not be able to detect luck, but the luck of that jade pendant was too powerful, so powerful that even she could feel it.
Gu Changsheng waved his hand and said, “This is a gift for Xin’er, as long as Xin’er likes it, right, Xin’er?”
“Yes, yes, Xin’er likes it very much.” Ouyang Xin lowered her head, constantly fiddling with the jade pendant, as if she had discovered a new toy, full of joy.
Hearing this, Feng Xi couldn't help but look at Ouyang Ji.
Ouyang Ji said, “One shouldn't refuse gifts from elders. Just let Xin’er keep it.”
Seeing this, Feng Xi couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, but Ouyang Ji was the head of the family after all, and since he had said so, Feng Xi could only agree.
“You’re leaving, aren’t you going to take some of my sake with you?” Gu Changsheng then brought up the sake that Ouyang Ji had brewed himself.
Ouyang Ji glared at him upon hearing this, and said, “How dare you say that? I’ve treasured a hundred years’ worth, and you’ve drunk it all. Others only take a sip, but you, you old drunkard, drink it like water?”
“Hey, you old scholar, I can fancy your little bit of wine, that’s your honor. Go ask around in the mortal realm, who wouldn't be honored if I drank their wine?”
When Gu Changsheng heard Ouyang Ji call him an old drunkard, he refused to admit defeat, and immediately called him an old scholar in return.
“Let’s skip this honor, I can’t afford it.” Ouyang Ji chuckled coldly.
“Oh dear, you old scholar, you just don’t want to give me any sake, do you?”
Gu Changsheng squinted at Ouyang Ji.
“It’s not that I don’t want to give it, it’s that I don’t have it.” Ouyang Ji said confidently.
“Hmph, you say you don’t have it, and that’s that?” Gu Changsheng smiled strangely.
Ouyang Ji was immediately shocked when he saw this, but Gu Changsheng ignored him. He lowered his head and ruffled Ouyang Xin's little head, saying, “Xin’er, when we grow up in the future, we can’t be as stingy as your daddy.”
The little girl nodded and said, “When Xin’er grows up, she will buy a lot and lots of wine for Uncle Gu.”
“Haha, good, Uncle is waiting.” Gu Changsheng laughed, then said to Feng Xi, “Sister-in-law, it’s a pity that you married this old scholar.”
Feng Xi couldn't help but smile wryly upon hearing this. She could naturally tell that Gu Changsheng was joking.
Ouyang Ji naturally refused to back down either. He said to Yao Xian, “Yao Xian, this old drunkard is always thinking about drinking, he must often neglect you. Please bear with him, that’s just how he is.”
But Yao Xian smiled and said, “He has never neglected me.”
“……”
Ouyang Ji stopped talking, then looked at Feng Xi, although he didn't speak, his eyes seemed to be saying, 'Why don't you say something nice about me too?'
However, Feng Xi only gave him a big eye roll.
Seeing this, Ouyang Ji couldn't help but sigh.
“There is no banquet in the world that doesn't end, we will meet again someday.” Gu Changsheng said.
“We will meet again someday!”
Ouyang Ji also responded seriously at this moment.
“Uncle Gu, Auntie Gu, we will meet again someday!”
The little girl Ouyang Xin also imitated, her appearance was incredibly adorable.
“We will meet again someday.”
Gu Changsheng and Yao Xian waved to the little girl and left.
After they left, Ouyang Ji suddenly walked quickly to the backyard. He formed hand seals, and the next moment, a six-pointed star pattern appeared on the ground. This was a seal, and a very powerful seal.
When the seal dissipated, the ground revealed its original appearance, which turned out to be a cellar.
Ouyang Ji walked in. Before long, a cry of surprise resounded throughout this small world.
“Damn it, Gu Changsheng, you old drunkard, you actually stole my wine! Stealing is one thing, but you didn't even leave me a drop, I f**k……”
Outside, Ouyang Xin, listening to her father's slightly grief-stricken voice, couldn't help but ask, “Mother, what is Daddy doing?”
Feng Xi smiled and said, “It's nothing, your daddy is singing loudly.”
“Oh, can I do that too in the future?” Ouyang Xin asked.
Feng Xi shook her head and said, “You can’t learn this.”
“Okay!” Ouyang Xin also felt that this way of singing was not pleasant, and was relieved when she heard that she couldn't learn it.
“Mother, I want to practice the magic that Uncle Gu taught me.” Ouyang Xin said.
“Go ahead, if you don’t understand anything, ask Mother. If Mother doesn’t understand, go ask your daddy.” Feng Xi said with a smile.
“Okay!”
Ouyang Xin nodded obediently, came to the place where Gu Changsheng had taught her the technique before, sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes, and in a short while, she had already entered a deep state of ethereal cultivation.
Feng Xi's eyes flashed with shock when she saw this scene.
Ouyang Xin did not have any special physique. With the bloodline of Ouyang Ji and the Undying Clan, her talent would naturally not be bad, but Feng Xi did not know how good her daughter's talent was.
Now she saw it.
To quickly enter an ethereal state like this, she was simply born for cultivation.
Their daughter's future achievements would definitely be extraordinary!
