Chapter 64 An elderly man with white hair came into the woman's view.
Shiqiao Village.
During the three days her sister was gone, every morning when Bai Ruxue woke up, she would sit on the stone bench in the courtyard, just like forty-eight years ago, looking at the path outside the courtyard.
In Bai Ruxue's mind, it seemed as if everything had happened yesterday.
Neither Bai Ruxue nor Xiaoqing slept the night before Xiaoqing left.
Xiaoqing told her older sister many, many things.
Bai Ruxue knew that she had fallen into a deep sleep only after Xiaoqing fed her that pill.
She also knew that Master Fuchen had given Xiaoqing a Soul-Remembering Pill, which could help her regain her memories.
However, Xiaoqing hesitated and did not eat it for herself immediately.
Bai Ruxue didn't blame her younger sister.
In Bai Ruxue's view, Xiaoqing, who was caught in the middle, was the one who had the hardest time, as she bore all the responsibility and guilt alone.
Sometimes, the person making the choice suffers more than the person being chosen.
From Xiao Qing's words, Bai Ruxue also learned that Xiao Mo had actually known for a long time that she and her sister were demons, but Xiao Mo had been pretending not to know.
For the past forty-eight years, Xiao Mo would come to visit him in front of the cave every now and then.
Bai Ruxue heard from her younger sister that Xiao Mo was still unmarried.
Even just listening to Xiaoqing's story, Bai Ruxue could imagine how Xiao Mo had been all alone all these years, and her heart ached.
That afternoon, just as Bai Ruxue's thoughts were drifting away...
She sensed some movement coming from the woods outside the courtyard.
Turning her head, Bai Ruxue saw the two little girls and two little boys secretly watching her.
Bai Ruxue stood up, went into the kitchen, and brought out the pastries.
These pastries were made by Bai Ruxue yesterday for the four "sneaky" children.
The day before yesterday morning, Bai Ruxue noticed that these children were secretly watching her.
So yesterday she went to the next village to buy some ingredients and made these osmanthus cakes.
Thinking that if they came again today, she would treat them to pastries and ask them why they were spying on her.
Bai Ruxue looked at them and softly asked, "Would you like some osmanthus cake?"
The four children were startled. They looked at each other and then awkwardly walked out of the grove.
"You must have been the one who exposed it!"
"I don't!"
"It must be Huihui, Huihui just farted."
"You're the one talking nonsense!" the girl retorted, blushing.
The four children bickered with each other as they walked into the yard.
"Come and have something to eat," Bai Ruxue said with a gentle smile.
Looking at the pretty older sister and then at the osmanthus cake on the table, the four children shyly walked into the courtyard.
At first, the four children were a little reserved, but their eyes lit up the moment they took their first bite of osmanthus cake.
"Eat slowly, don't choke." Bai Ruxue poured a bowl of water for the four children.
"Big sister, your pastries are so delicious," said the little boy named Qi Ming, looking up at the table.
"Thank you." Bai Ruxue smiled. "But why are you all staring at me?"
"Um," the little boy named Qi Ming scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "Huihui said there's a very pretty older sister in the village, like a fairy, so we came here."
"Then we noticed that you often sit in the yard looking outside, big sister. Lily said that you must have encountered something sad, and Huihui said that you are a fairy and are meditating," said the little boy named Hu Hui.
"In the end, we made a bet: whoever guessed correctly would treat us to candy," Lily replied. "But we were too shy to ask our older sister," Huihui said, blushing.
"Big sister, why are you sitting in the yard the whole time?" Qi Ming asked.
"I'm waiting for someone," Bai Ruxue said with a gentle smile.
"Waiting for someone?" The seven-year-old girl seemed to understand but not quite. "But big sister, you've been waiting for three days already. Is he not coming?"
Bai Ruxue stroked the little girl's hair: "He will come. Even if he doesn't, big sister will keep waiting."
"Big sister, you're so stubborn," Hu Hui said.
Bai Ruxue smiled and said, "Sister, this isn't stubbornness. The truly stubborn person waited for forty-eight years."
"Wow! Forty-eight years!" the children exclaimed in unison.
"Sister, why has this person been waiting for so long?"
"This is a very, very long story. Would you like to hear it?"
"We want to hear it, we want to hear it."
Once upon a time, there was a scholar who, one day, went up a mountain and rescued a little white snake.
As evening approached, Xiao Mo entered Shiqiao Village and walked step by step toward his own courtyard.
Because Xiao Mo hadn't returned to the village for a long time, and even when he did, he would only visit the village chief, Aunt Chen, and spend most of his time in Sheshan.
In addition, Xiao Mo is currently wearing a tattered blue robe.
Therefore, no one recognized Xiao Mo as the famous Prime Minister Xiao.
The villagers glanced at Xiao Mo, wondering who this unfamiliar old man was and why they had never seen him before.
"Let me tell you, in the former residence of our Prime Minister Xiao, there lived a fairy dressed in white, who was incredibly beautiful!"
"They're living in Prime Minister Xiao's former residence? Should we kick them out?"
"I don't think so. That fairy in white was brought back by the fairy in green. She should be a friend of the fairy in green. And the fairy in green is rumored to be a good friend of Prime Minister Xiao. She cleans the courtyard for Prime Minister Xiao every now and then."
"Eh? I heard a rumor that Prime Minister Xiao had a childhood sweetheart who eventually joined the immortal sect. Could it be this fairy?"
"I've heard this rumor too. It's said that Prime Minister Xiao hasn't married because he's waiting for her."
"Don't talk nonsense. Those are just stories from novels. That fairy in the white dress must be a fellow disciple of the fairy in green. She's just staying for a few nights. Don't gossip."
As Xiao Mo passed by the village pond, he overheard several women washing clothes chatting.
Xiao Mo paused slightly, stepped forward, and bowed to the women: "Ladies, could you tell me about the woman in the white dress?"
Goodbye, fairy sister.
"Fairy sister, thank you for treating us to osmanthus cake."
"Tomorrow I'll bring you some cured meat from my family, Fairy Sister."
As the sun was about to set, the children waved goodbye to the fairy sister.
"Be careful on the road."
Bai Ruxue stood at the courtyard gate, smiling as she watched them leave.
After they had gone far away, Bai Ruxue turned around and walked back into the courtyard.
But just as Bai Ruxue took two steps...
Suddenly, the woman stopped.
Bai Ruxue's heartbeat quickened, her fingers gripped her sleeves tightly, and her eyes darted around.
Turning around, a white-haired old man came into the woman's view.
