Fairies, please don't talk to me about love

"My home is just ahead."

They walked along the river until they reached the top of the mountain and looked down.

There are many grass and wooden houses on the plain behind the mountain, in addition to large tracts of farmland and herds of cattle and sheep.

"Well... although it doesn't look as prosperous as a big town or a sect, the village is actually quite nice!"

She walked in front to clear the way for the two of them, all the way down the mountain, the road gradually began to come alive.

"Ruyi? You're back!"

An old woman carrying a basket on her back saw Zhang Ruyi and immediately came over.

"You've grown taller - who are those two behind you?"

"Mother-in-law, they are good friends I made in the sect."

"Is that so? Welcome!"

The old woman came up and greeted Ye Lingtian and Xuan Feng before leaving in a hurry.

Zhang Ruyi led them forward, and everyone they met along the way greeted them enthusiastically.

It seems that she is very popular in the village.

"arrive."

Zhang Ruyi stopped in front of a two-story wooden house and knocked on the door tentatively.

No one responded for a long time.

"My dad is playing chess again?"

The door was pushed open with force and everyone stepped into the house.

As expected, the house was very plain, with almost no facilities other than the necessities of life.

Ye Lingtian walked to the wooden table in the middle, picked up a chess piece and looked at it carefully.

It seems that Zhang Ruyi's father is a free and easy person.

Why do you say that?

The chess pieces on the table clearly showed that he was playing against himself.

The black pieces were crushed by the white pieces, so he simply placed the black pieces randomly, and the left, right, top and bottom were all occupied by black pieces.

Well, very free and easy.

"Let's wait for a while. Maybe my father will be back soon. Do you want to try some specialties from my hometown?"

Zhang Ruyi skillfully opened the cabinet and took out a few green cakes.

"This is Kusabiki, um... it's made of grass and flour, it's really delicious!"

Ye Lingtian and Xuan Feng each took a piece and started to chew on it.

Ye Lingtian really wanted to try it. After all, he was also a foodie. Although he had no need for food after Nirvana, he still maintained the habit of eating two meals a day.

Xuan Feng endured the nausea and started to eat it.

For her, who was used to eating high-quality grass, it was a little hard for her to accept eating grass cakes whose only advantage was that they were fresh.

"Little Ji Xuan, you seem to like eating this?"

Zhang Ruyi noticed Xuanfeng who was eating the cake in big mouthfuls because she wanted to end the torture quickly, and gave her three more pieces.

"Eat it! If it's not enough, I can make it now."

"Thank you, Sister Ruyi!"

"Miss Ruyi, since you are already in the early stages of Danhua at the age of seventeen, your father must not be an ordinary person, right?"

"Well, my father..."

Once the topic was opened, time passed very quickly.

"I see, Miss Ruyi, your father is really a good man and a good husband."

"Yeah, so I've always admired him."

Just a few minutes after they finished the story session, a middle-aged man with a stubble on his face walked straight into the house.

"came back?"

"Father, I'm back."

The conversation between them was very dull. After a question and answer, the middle-aged man walked to his table, picked up the chess pieces and started playing chess with him.

"who are they."

"They are friends I made in the sect. We are currently out training and I just happened to pass by so I thought of coming back to see them."

"Ah."

Zhang Sanfeng didn't say anything else, but played chess with himself for an hour.

Ye Lingtian and Xuan Feng didn't know how to liven up the atmosphere.

It seems that Zhang Ruyi's father is a bit withdrawn?

Finally, Zhang Sanfeng dropped his last piece, and it was already dark outside.

He stood up and looked at his daughter's friends, then stared at Ye Lingtian and rubbed his eyes.

Ye Lingtian was also observing Zhang Sanfeng's face. He always felt as if he had seen this man somewhere before.

"Father, his name is Ye Lingyun, and the one next to him is Ji Xuan, they are both very powerful!"

"what is his name?"

"Ye...Ye Lingyun, what's wrong?"

Zhang Sanfeng's face, which had been tense before, relaxed at this moment and broke into a bright smile.

"Welcome, welcome! Oops, I'm sorry. I lost a game of chess to a little brat this afternoon, so I'm in a bad mood. Do you mind, little friend?"

Zhang Sanfeng walked up to Ye Lingtian, grabbed his hand and shook it vigorously a few times, then put his arm around his back and walked upstairs.

The black phoenix next to it was simply ignored as if it were air.

Zhang Ruyi was a little confused at this time.

Her father had always been a serious man, and as far as she could remember, she had never seen her father so happy.

Even though I had grown up and made great achievements in cultivation, he only praised me with a few emotionless words.

what is it today?

Chapter 2 Free Gift

"Is your father Ye Lingtian from Fengxian City?"

Zhang Sanfeng could never forget Ye Lingtian's face, and the person in front of him looked exactly like Ye Lingtian.

This Ye Lingyun should be his son, right?

Until this time, no matter how stupid Ye Lingtian was, he could see that the middle-aged man in front of him was Zhang Sanfeng, who had fought with him before in the Zhang family and was reincarnated like himself.

"I am Ye Lingtian. I didn't expect to see you here again, little Taoist priest."

----

Xuan Feng and Zhang Ruyi were waiting downstairs feeling very bored.

Xuan Feng used his spiritual sense to eavesdrop on the news above and roughly knew what had happened, but Zhang Ruyi was still in a confused state.

“Hahaha, okay—”

Zhang Sanfeng's hearty laughter came from the stairwell. Then, he led Ye Lingtian down the stairs, walked to the middle table, took the chessboard and chess pieces aside, and said to Zhang Ruyi:

"Daughter, there are some things in the kitchen that can be used to cook a table of dishes, go quickly!"

After saying that, he pulled Ye Lingtian to sit next to him.

Xuan Feng looked at the two of them and felt it was not appropriate to intervene rashly, so she simply retreated to the kitchen to find Zhang Ruyi.

"What's going on?"

In the kitchen, Zhang Ruyi was muttering to herself as she used the spiritual fire to ignite the firewood.

She really didn't expect that her taciturn father would be so excited to see Master Lingyun.

The only explanation is that Master Lingyun had met her father before, but Ye Lingyun was only 21 years old!

He was only three years older than her, and she dared to guarantee that she had never seen Ye Lingtian appear here.

Could it be that before her father brought her here to live, he had received favors from Ye Lingyun or his family?

"Sister Ruyi."

Xuan Feng walked in obediently and sat next to Zhang Ruyi.

"Little Ji Xuan, do you know why your son is so... with my father?"

Xuan Feng shook his head.

If I tell others what I heard, wouldn't I be exposed?

It was difficult for her to make up any other excuses. After all, she was now the little maid that Ye Lingyun picked up two years ago.

"That's really weird... Well, let's not think about it for now. There will be plenty of time to ask later."

......

"Don't be polite, just treat it as your own home!"

Zhang Sanfeng picked up chopsticks and put pieces of meat into Ye Lingtian's bowl, not stopping until he had picked up all the meat on the plate.

This resulted in the black phoenix, who had been staring at the meat, only eating two or three pieces in the end.

"Little Ji Xuan, don't you like straw cakes? I made some more for you, here."

Looking at the extra green thing in her bowl, Xuan Feng looked at Ye Lingtian who was eating meat opposite her with a resentful look.

Ye Lingtian noticed her and expressed his confusion with his expression.

"Humph~"

With his head lowered, Xuan Feng began to bite the innocent cake fiercely, as if he was eating someone's +-*%.

After dinner, Zhang Ruyi took them upstairs and assigned them two empty rooms.

There are only four rooms upstairs, one for each person is just right.

Just when Ye Lingtian put his things away and prepared to hug Xuan Feng to sleep, Zhang Sanfeng came up and grabbed him.

"Let's go fishing!"

Then he pulled Ye Lingtian and disappeared into the night.

----

"There are a lot of fat fish in the river nearby. I was there last time. Look—"

Zhang Sanfeng pointed to the river illuminated by the moonlight.

"It's very big and fat, weighing a full thirty kilograms!"

He walked to the river and picked up a fishing rod from the ground, then took out another one and handed it to Ye Lingtian.

Taking out a straw cake from the bag, he took a piece off and put it on the fish hook, then swung the rod into the river and found a comfortable place to sit cross-legged.

Ye Lingtian held the fishing rod in his hand and fell into deep thought.

"As a cultivator, can't you use your spiritual power to catch all the fish in the river?"

"Master Lingtian, in fact, the most important thing about fishing is not whether you can catch fish or not."

As Zhang Sanfeng spoke, he raised his fishing rod and caught a fish as long as his arm.

"But can you forget some things through fishing..."

Ye Lingtian walked to Zhang Sanfeng, who suddenly looked a little lost, and imitated him, twisted a piece of grass cake and threw the fishing rod in, then sat down cross-legged on the spot.

"I understand."
