AST 0137 – The feeling of a heart warming family
“Daddy!”
Qing Shui gazed at the adorable little girl walking over with a bounce in her step as he swept the little girl into a hug under the gentle smile of Wu-shuang.
“Okay, come look for me when you are free. I won’t disturb you all any longer.” Wu-shuang lightly pinched the cheeks of the little girl as she laughed and departed.
“You’re back!” It was only at this moment that Mingyue spoke.
Qing Shui looked at Mingyue Gelou, whom he had not seen for half a month. That saintliness of her motherly love was extremely attractive to him. Compared to back then, her smile now was even wider, and filled with warmth. Every movement she made would cause people to be mesmerized. Not only that, but she was also extremely amicable and easy to approach.
“Sister Mingyue, have you gotten used to staying here?” Qing Shui joyfully led the way as all three of them walked in the direction of the Qing Clan’s medical store.
“Yes, the people here are all very nice to me and my daughter. Thank you, if not for you, my daughter…”
“Mingyue, Yuchang has already regarded me as her daddy. I’ve said it before that I was fated to meet her. Curing her makes me even happier than you feel, so don’t worry about it.”
Qing Shui, in a moment of agitation, had directly called her Mingyue. He wasn’t willing to see Mingyue keep putting herself down, treating herself like a servant.
Mingyue Gelou felt a warmth blossom in her heart as she heard the words of Qing Shui. It was unknown when it had started, but the shadow of Qing Shui had already left an indelible imprint in her heart.
The most important thing was that Qing Shui was currently her support. It could even be said that he was the very sky supporting her. She felt that if there was no Qing Shui, even the sky would crumble.
“This place would forever be considered as home for both of you. The people living here are also your kin. Do you agree Yuchang?” Qing Shui laughed, as he slowly enunciated each word of the sentence to his daughter. Although the sound of his voice wasn’t loud, it resounded like thunder in Mingyue’s heart, as tears involuntarily flowed down her cheeks.
“Daddy, home, lololo!”
Qing Shui kissed the cheeks of the little girl, and walked into the medical store together with Mingyue.
It was afternoon now, so only Yuan Ying was around. The rest were all busy with their own tasks; even Qing Zi and his wife were away settling some business deals.
Recently the Qing Clan, in the period of time that Qing Shui was away, had started a small trading business where they import and export items. The main items were beast furs, coal and specialty merchandise. Qing Zi and his wife were helping out in this new business venture. They had already planned it all out, and wanted to start this long ago. The only thing that had held them back before, was the lack of funds. Before Qing Shui went to the Golden Ringed Valley, he took out about 30,000 taels of silver for them to use as their startup capital.
“Qing Shui, was that woman earlier your fiancee? She’s so beautiful, and you guys look so cute together!” Mingyue remarked happily along the way.
Looking at how happy Mingyue was chatting about his ‘fiancee’, Qing Shui silently scolded the stupid man who tossed Mingyue aside. This type of man didn’t know how to cherish a woman. How could he ever allow such a good woman like Mingyue to suffer.
“She’s very beautiful, as beautiful as sister Mingyue, but she’s not my fiancee. Nobody wants me anyway. Do you want me sister Mingyue?” Qing Shui smiled as he replied.
“Ah! No, no. This sister is already a flower that has lost its bloom. How would I have the qualifications be with you? Sister’s greatest wish is just to see you attain happiness.”
“Don’t say it like that, in my heart, you are very pure and saintly. He left you because he was blind. Be more confident in yourself. You don’t lose out to others at all, and even look more beautiful compared to them.” Qing Shui held her hands after speaking, apparently intending on giving her courage.
“Thank you, Qing Shui!” Mingyue blushed, causing Qing Shui to be breathless, awed by her beauty.
That night after they had heard that Qing Shui was back, and upon learning that there were demonic beasts to feast upon, the Qing Clan members were all endlessly shocked. Qing Shui had brought back quite a bit of the Snake King’s flesh.
Meat from demonic beasts were incomparably delicious. Everyone in this world knew that the higher grade a demonic beast was, the tastier their flesh would be. Not only that, their flesh could be preserved for longer periods of time, even through the blistering heat of summer, the meat wouldn’t spoil even if it was left out in the open for half a month.
After Qing Yi realized that Qing Shui killed a Xiantian grade demonic beast, she was initially joyful, but it soon turned into reproach. She repeatedly reminded Qing Shui never to attempt such a feat again.
“Brother Qing Shui, my idol. Little brother future happiness will all depend on you from now on. Groom me to the xiantian level, and find me a Xiantian wife…”
Everyone burst into laughter after hearing the words of the joker, Qing You. The younger generation had all started to use their language ‘to beat up’ Qing You, as Qing You helplessly pleaded with Qing Shui, but was of course rejected. From this, Qing Shui could feel the happiness that came about from the warmth of a family. He understood that Qing You had very thick skin, and seemed invulnerable to whatever jeers were thrown his way.
The 3rd generation of the Qing Clan weren’t numerous, and couldn’t be considered a big family Clan. However the relationship between them were as close as real brothers, and they would go all out for each other. Qing bei, the only female in the 3rd generation received more care and love compared to the others.
Now that Mingyue and Yuchang were staying over at the Qing Clan, little Yuchang became the focus of attention, and everyone felt as though she really was the daughter of Qing Shui.
