390. They Are So Sweet (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
The fine wood bed was a big bed which was made from the ingredients used to refine magic weapons. It had the miraculous effect of providing spiritual nourishment for the body.
When Rong Yi and others came to the shop, Xiang Lu said jokingly, “s.h.i.+fu, I heard that you are going to get married soon, so you can take the opportunity to check out those wooden utensils you like.”
Old Lady Yin agreed with him, “Yes, you both have a look by the way, and we are all here, and can give you some advice. If you see something you like, you can order now.”
Bu Qi joked, “Now my s.h.i.+fu and Lord Yin live in the same room. Even if they are not married, they should change a bigger bed.”
Rong Yi felt embarra.s.sed and showed the whites of his eyes at him.
The mouth of Yin Jinye slightly curved, “I already see things I like. No need to look around.
Rong Yi was surprised, “Really?”
“Hmm.”
Xiang Lv laughed and said, “Lord Yin is already impatient.”
Yin Jinye honestly admitted, “Yeah, you can say that.”
“Our s.h.i.+fu is already yours. Why?”
Aunt Xian and Old Lady Yin smiled happily.
“Grandma, grandma, we want a big bed, too.” Cried little Cherry.
Then Yao’er also shouted, “We want a big bed.”
Old Lady Yin asked curiously, “Why do you want a big bed?”
“There are four of us. We need a big one.”
The children often played until midnight and wouldn’t sleep, so Yin Jinye ordered them to sleep separately, but after midnight, Jiang Mu would again put his three younger brothers in one bed.
The second day, when they woke up and saw each other, they would hang out together again.
Old Lady Yin agreed, “Then buy it, but, you mustn’t make it too late at night, or you’ll still have to sleep separately.”
Yin Tao, Yin Sensen and Yao’er had reached the Breatharianism phase, so if they didn’t sleep well, they’d feel not well the next day.
“OK.” The four children ran happily to select the bed they like.
After old Lady Yin bought the appliances, and bought some other things with Rong Yi and others, and finally went back to the mansion.
As they were about to step into the gate, they saw a carriage pulling by two giant wolves flying their way.
When Old Lady Yin saw the lantern with the character Min on it, she exclaimed excitedly, “Ye’er, it’s your grandparents.”
The carter stepped down and bowed respectfully to Old Lady Yin. “My greetings, Miss.”
Old Lady Yin felt both happy and strange. “Uncle Chang, didn’t you say in the letter that you’d only come tomorrow? Why today?”
The carter smiled, “The master misses you too much.”
At this moment, a n.o.ble-looking woman walked out of the carriage, very similar to Old Lady Yin in appearance, but it looked like her age was not much different from Old Lady Yin.
“Mom…” Old Lady Yin delighted went to support her mother get off.
As Old Lady Min saw her daughter, she looked both happy and melancholy, patted the back of her hand and said, “Go and help your dad down.”
Old Lady Yin was slightly stunned and then raised the car curtain. She was shocked as she saw his father inside, “Dad, how did you get so much older?”
“Mom, what’s wrong with grandfather?” Rong Yi moved to the carriage and looked inside. An old man with white hair was in, his face covered with wrinkles, like a candle in the wind, who could die at any moment.
Old Lady Yin hurriedly asked Old Lady Min, “Mom, what happened to dad?”
Old Lady Min sighed, “He can’t break the Mahayana phase and make it to the Perfection phase, and he can’t overpower his doom and ascend. Now he is approaching his time limit, and he is aging rapidly. In another two years, maybe…”
As she spoke, her eyes turned red and she choked up.
Old Lady Yin was also very sad, “How could this be? Did he take elixirs to prolong his life?”
“He had already taken a lot, but the elixirs in our cultivation world have no effect on him at all, only those from the immortal world would do.” Old Lady Min covered her mouth and dare not cry out, in case her partner heard her.
Rong Yi quickly asked the servants to help him down.
But as soon as the servant touched him, he refused, “I can move, I can still move. Don’t help me.”
He stood up, trembling, and with Rong Yi’s supporting, got out of the carriage.
He looked around. “What is this place?”
Old Lady Min said, “Don’t you want to see your daughter? We are at her mansion now.”
Old Lady Yin excitedly called out, “Dad.”
Old Lord Min pushed her away and took Rong Yi’s hand joyfully. “Dan…”
The others, “…”
“Huh?” Rong Yi had all question marks over his face, “Grandpa, are you mistaken?”
“Dan, you’re as young and pretty as ever.”
Rong Yi, “…”
Old Lady Min looked ever sadder “His condition is getting worse now.”
Old Lady Yin hurriedly tried to comfort her mother.
Rong Yi asked them, “Dan? Who is Dan?”
“My wife.” The old lord said happily.
Rong Yi, “…”
He was sure that the old lord was having senile dementia.
Yin Jinye frowned.
Bu Qi and Xiang Lv could hardly suppress their laugh.
Old Lady Yin looked embarra.s.sed, “Dad, mom is here.”
The old man looked at her. “Who are you?”
Old Lady Yin, “…”
The old man turned back and took Rong Yi’s hand with a smile. “Dan, let’s get married.”
“OK, OK, let’s go inside first.” Rong Yi hurriedly coaxed him into the house.
The old man looked at Jin Jinye and said happily, “Dad, Dan has agreed to marry me.”
Yin Jinye jumped with blue veins jumping on his forehead.
“Dad, we must hurry to get the betrothal gifts ready, oh right, we also need to find the matchmaker.”
Yin Jinye asked, “What if I don’t agree with your marriage?”
