Chapter 76 There is a mission
When I returned to Yushenmen, my uncle, sister, brother , and that girl Lu Xiaofeng actually prepared a large table of food, which was rare for me. They said they wanted to welcome my wife, Jiang Qiqi, who I brought back.
It should be that the uncle had already told them about Jiang Qiqi's matter, so no one looked at Jiang Qiqi differently because of her mental problems, and no one mentioned the matter at all.
"Junior brother, your wife is so beautiful."
The second senior brother put his arm around my shoulders and winked at me. Then he took out two talismans from his pocket, handed them to Jiang Qiqi and Xiaomin, and said, "Sister-in-law, Xiaomin, here is a gift for meeting you. This is the substitute talisman I got in exchange for doing something for Taoist Master Zhang from Laoshan. It can save your life at a critical moment."
Jiang Qiqi didn't seem to understand what he said, but she continued with a smile, and then sensibly put the talisman in her arms. Xiao Min's eyes lit up and she said, "Second Senior Brother, are you talking about Taoist Master Zhang Fanglin from Laoshan?"
Everyone agreed that Jiang Qiqi and Xiao Min would call them the same way I called them.
"Xiao Min also knows Taoist Zhang?"
Second Brother seemed a little surprised.
"Not really. I don't have much to do normally. I like reading. Although I have been staying in Magnolia Valley, I have learned a lot about the outside world from books."
"You little brat, look at them. If you have nothing to do, read some books and gain some knowledge."
The master glared at me and said.
Then the other people also gave gifts one by one. Senior sister Shangguan Xian gave Jiang Qiqi a jade pendant, saying that it could warm the mind. Although I didn't understand it, it should be a good thing and it looks good. As a result, everyone had eaten, and Jiang Qiqi was still playing with the jade pendant.
"Jiang Qiqi, put your things away quickly and eat well."
I sat next to her and gently scolded her. She looked at me carefully, grumbled in response, and then put the jade pendant in her arms.
"Look, they really look like a couple."
The uncle-master laughed jokingly.
"Junior brother, you are now beginning to discipline your wife, haha."
The second brother also laughed.
Jiang Qiqi and Xiao Min were arranged to live in my yard. Before we came back, Lu Xiaofeng had cleaned up my yard and tidied up two rooms for Jiang Qiqi and Xiao Min to live in.
"Uncle Junior, I have cleaned your yard for you, but this is not for nothing. I will deduct money from your remuneration for the next mission."
Lu Xiaofeng seemed very satisfied with the fruits of her labor, and looked at the clean courtyard with a smile on her face. I turned my head and rolled my eyes at her, saying, "You still say that I only care about money, but you are obviously more obsessed with money than me."
"Humph, this is the labor compensation I deserve. There is a kitchen and bathroom in the yard. I bought some food and daily necessities for you. Of course, these expenses will be deducted from your future mission remuneration. You will solve your own food and hygiene problems in the future."
Lu Xiaofeng left a word and turned away.
I shrugged and took Jiang Qiqi and Xiao Min to find their rooms. Their rooms were right next to mine. Then I carefully checked the entire courtyard. Basically, everything I needed for daily life was there.
After walking around, I returned to Jiang Qiqi and Xiao Min's room. It was already evening, and Jiang Qiqi was probably tired from the journey and had fallen asleep.
"Jiang Qiqi fell asleep? I'm tired too, so I'm going back to sleep. If you want to wash up, there are daily necessities in the bathroom."
"Master Ye Yun, can you just call Miss Qiqi Qiqi directly from now on? It will be more intimate this way."
I nodded and said, "Well, don't call me Young Master anymore. Just call me Ye Yun. Okay, from now on, just treat this as the same as Magnolia Valley."
"I was brought back to Magnolia Valley by Third Master and grew up with Miss Qiqi. Wherever Miss Qiqi is, that's my home."
I shrugged and smiled, "It would be best if you could treat this place as your home. Don't think too much about it, it's the same wherever you are, just live happily."
I was really tired after a long day of driving. I went back to my room and fell asleep. I don't know how long I slept, but I suddenly felt an itch in my nose, and then I sneezed and woke up.
"Ye Yun is a lazy bum, hurry up and get up."
Jiang Qiqi was standing by the bed, holding a bunch of grass she had pulled out from somewhere, looking at me with a smile. Seeing her smiling face, I couldn't get angry either, so I could only look at my phone helplessly. It was just past six o'clock, and the sky outside seemed to be just getting light.
"Qiqi, what are you doing? Why are you getting up so early instead of sleeping well?"
"Ms. Qiqi practices martial arts every morning. She has had this habit for more than ten years."
Xiao Min appeared at the door with a towel in her hand. Looking closely, Qiqi did have some sweat on her head. Damn, getting up early in the morning to practice martial arts, it would be a shame not to become a hero.
"Ms. Qiqi, go take a shower and change your clothes, so you can have breakfast later. Ye Yun, you should get up soon too."
After they left, I checked my phone , then pulled the quilt over my head and continued to sleep. Damn, you got up so early to rob someone?
The following days were very dull. Second Senior Brother went out again, and Lu Xiaofeng was nowhere to be seen. Senior Uncle walked the dog all day, taking the arrogant big black dog around the top of the mountain, as if patrolling the mountain. Senior Sister, as always, stayed in her own courtyard all day, and I don't know what she was doing. The day after we came back, the old master engraved the formation on my hand and went down the mountain.
Anyway, I have nearly 200,000 yuan in my card now, which is enough to send money to my family every month. I am also happy to have free time. I read books, bask in the sun, and sleep in the yard every day. Qiqi is very happy almost every day, and her daily life is simple and regular. But I also saw her sitting alone a few times, staring blankly at the sky, and I don’t know what she was thinking.
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and Lu Xiaofeng sent a message saying that there was finally a mission.
I suddenly realized that although every mission was dangerous, I seemed to have come to like that feeling. It was not just because I could make money, but also because I seemed to have an instinctive liking for it.
As usual, the girl just left an address and asked me to go there as soon as possible, without any extra nonsense.
With the old man, Uncle Master, and Senior Sister Shangguan Xian on the mountain, it must be safe. But the mountain is huge, and if one runs out alone, there might be some danger.
"Xiao Min, take good care of Qiqi. It may take me a while to come back."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Qiqi. Over the years, every time Master San goes on a mission, he will tell you the same thing. Although I'm used to it, please still be careful."
Although Xiao Min had a smile on her face, she seemed a little worried.
I waved my hand and said, "Don't worry. I don't have any other skills, but I am first-rate in escaping and saving my life. Besides, I am just a rookie, and Lu Xiaofeng will never take me to carry out a mission that is too dangerous."
Kiki was playing alone by the vegetable garden in the yard. She seemed to be curious about something every day.
"Okay, I'm leaving now."
I thought it was just an ordinary ghost hunting mission, but I didn't expect that it almost made me never come back.
