A journey through ancient times, a journey of exquisite divine skills

Chapter 132 Reunion II

The uncles and aunts from Sujia Village told Aunt Su not to worry, since Da Ya and the other girl had finally returned, and they shouldn't let them go hungry.

"Auntie, don't worry, Daya and Xiaoyue have finally come back."

We need to make sure they both have a good meal; we can't let them go hungry.

As they talked, they pulled Daya and Xiaoyue toward the dining table, ready to begin this warm family dinner.

Just as everyone was hurriedly trying to get Daya and Xiaoyue into their seats.

An aunt in the crowd turned her head unintentionally, and her gaze fell on Hong Pijing and Mei Yanyan, who were standing not far away.

The aunt then spoke to Daya and Xiaoyue, saying, "Oh dear, Daya and Xiaoyue..."

"We have guests, why don't you two girls properly introduce them to everyone?"

When Daya heard her aunt's question, she was slightly taken aback at first, and then looked in the direction her aunt was looking.

When they saw Hong Pijing and Mei Yanyan smiling and looking in their direction.

Her already slightly shy face instantly flushed a bright, luscious red, like a ripe apple.

Daya lowered her head subconsciously, but quickly raised it again, gently took Mei Yanyan's hand, and then walked lightly to the front of the crowd.

Da Ya shyly introduced herself to everyone.

"Grandma, uncles and aunts, let me introduce you. This young lady is named Mei Yanyan, and this senior gentleman is named Hong Pijing."

Yan Yan and the senior met on our way to Sichao about six months ago.

We were able to return safely thanks to the help of Yan Yan and Senior Hong.

"If it weren't for Yan Yan and Senior Hong traveling with us, we would have faced even greater difficulties."

After hearing Daya's explanation, Grandma Su's face showed gratitude.

After hearing Da Ya's introduction, Grandma Su quickly stepped forward and bowed to Hong Pijing in gratitude.

"Brother, thank you so much. You've been taking care of the children in my Su family village all this time."

Upon seeing this, Hong Pijing quickly waved his hand and replied, "Sister, you flatter me. We've been supporting each other along the way."

Daya and Xiaoyue also helped me a lot; we all looked out for each other.

Grandma Su was deeply moved by Hong Pijing's words.

She turned to look at Mei Yanyan, a kind smile on her face.

"You little girl, you're so pretty. Grandma thanks you for taking care of my Su family's children all this way."

Mei Yanyan's face flushed red when Grandma Su praised her like that.

She lowered her head shyly and said softly, "Grandma, you're too kind. Actually, I wasn't much of a help."

At this moment, the other uncles and aunts couldn't help but laugh when they saw them still politely declining.

An auntie joked, "Alright, alright, stop thanking me like that."

"Auntie, to be honest, let's sit down and eat while we chat, otherwise the food will get cold."

"Yes, yes, yes!" everyone echoed.

"Brother, young lady, come, come, let's all sit down and eat together."

So, under everyone's enthusiastic invitation, Hong Pijing and Mei Yanyan felt embarrassed to refuse any longer.

They were led to the dining table and sat down with the people of Sujia Village.

So everyone took their seats and began to enjoy the carefully prepared dinner.

Everyone ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

The table was laden with all sorts of delicious dishes, their aromas filling the air and making one's mouth water.

"Senior Hong, Yan Yan, please make yourselves at home."

Daya greeted them warmly, her eyes filled with gratitude for the two companions who had helped them along the way.

"Yes, Sister Yan and Brother Yan, please don't be shy, eat more."

Xiaoyue chimed in, her tone carrying a hint of coquetry, making her sound exceptionally affectionate.

"Mmm, I haven't been eating properly since I came out yesterday. This food smells so good."

Mei Yanyan responded with a smile, her smile as warm and bright as the spring sunshine.

She picked up a delicious-looking dish, savored it carefully, and her face beamed with satisfaction.

"Come on, Uncle, try this braised pork. It's a specialty of Su Family Village. You can't find it anywhere else."

An uncle enthusiastically picked up a piece of braised pork with a bright red color and a good balance of fat and lean meat, and put it into Hong Pijing's bowl.

"Haha, thank you. This braised pork looks so appetizing. I have to try it."

Hong Pijing took the braised pork and exaggeratedly smelled it.

Then he picked up a piece of braised pork and took a big bite, saying with a satisfied look, "Mmm, this meat should only exist in heaven, it's a rare treat to taste in the mortal world."

He ate the braised pork with a satisfied smile on his face.

At this moment, Xiaoyue also spoke up: "Uncle, my brother can't live without wine, is there any wine left at home?"

Bring out more wine and let the old man have a good drink.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll go get it right away." After saying that, the uncle got up and went inside to get the wine.

A short while later, he came over with a jar of wine and poured a large bowl for Hong Pijing.

Grandma Su found it a little strange to hear Xiaoyue calling Hong Pijing "older brother" repeatedly.

He then asked, "Xiaoyue, why do you call the older brother 'older brother'?"

When Xiaoyue heard this question, she was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to explain.

Seeing her so shy, Hong Pijing helped her out, saying, "Haha, big sister, here's what happened."

Although I'm a bit older, I have a young mindset.

Xiaoyue thought I was quite interesting, so she insisted on calling me "older brother," which I gladly accepted. After all, having more sisters means having more options, right?

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Hong Pijing then recounted to everyone present how he met them and the interesting things that happened along the way.

He deliberately described the fight scenes as thrilling and exciting, and told the jokes during their conversation in a vivid and detailed way.

Everyone listened with great interest, sometimes holding their breath in tension, and sometimes laughing so hard they were doubled over.

"Pfft, Senior Hong, don't be so funny." Mei Yanyan couldn't stand Hong Pijing's words.

"Hehe, you flatter me. I'm just a person who likes to have fun."

"Life is too short to enjoy it while we can," Hong Pijing replied with a smile.

The entire dinner was filled with laughter and cheerful conversation, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

At this moment, Grandma Su looked at Hong Pijing and Mei Yanyan and asked with concern, "Young man, young lady, what are your plans for the future?"

Hong Pijing put down his chopsticks, pondered for a moment, and said, "Big sister, I haven't decided yet. I'll just go with the flow."

I might continue traveling around in a while, but for now, I still need to get rid of the toxins in my body.

"Hmm, even I, an older sister, don't understand this kind of illness. Don't you guys have any way to help this young man?"

Daya and Xiaoyue both shook their heads.

Xiaoyue said, "We can't do anything for now, but I heard from the Spirit King that Xiaoya is probably sick, it's just..."

Sujiacun looked troubled when he heard Xiaoyue mention Xiaoya.

At this moment, Mei Yanyan blushed and said, "Grandma, I haven't thought it through yet. Maybe I'll stay here for a while longer."

"Okay, okay, then stay a few more days," Grandma Su nodded with a smile.

Her eyes were filled with affection and reluctance for Mei Yanyan.

When Xiaoyue heard Hong Pijing say that he wanted to leave, she was startled.

He hurriedly asked, "Brother, are you planning to leave? Maybe you shouldn't go?"

I believe Xiaoya will definitely come back, and when she does, she will be able to cure the poison in your body.

Hong Pijing looked at Xiaoyue, who was anxious, and smiled slightly, comforting her, "Little Yue, there's no need to be so anxious. Your older brother didn't say he was leaving right away."

However, as the old saying goes, all good things must come to an end.

You all have your own paths to walk, and your older brother also has his own journey to embark on.

Whether we part ways sooner or later, there is essentially no difference.

I've been traveling alone all these years, and I'm used to it.

So, little Yue, you don't need to worry about me anymore.

As long as you, Su Yue, will always be our older brother's little sister, isn't that enough for us?

"Brother, why don't you stay here for a while?"

"Alright, alright, I have nowhere else to go either. Of course I'll stay."

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, no one rushed to get up and leave.

The adults asked Daya and the others about their journey, and the four of them responded to them.
