"Will you promise to tell me whatever you plan to do in the future?"
Su Yun looked up at him with tears like falling pear flowers.
"Hm?"
Chen Xuan expressed confusion, glancing again at Su Wanqiu not far away. Seeing her shake her head,
he finally understood.
This little girl isn't dumb.
What did she figure out?
"Alright!"
"You promise!"
Su Yun rolled her face against his clothes, wiping her tears.
Instantly,
Chen Xuan was amused by her actions.
So he promised, "I promise, I'll definitely tell you in the future. Is that good now?"
"You're still laughing, so annoying!"
She broke free from Chen Xuan's embrace, approached Su Wanqiu to complain, "Look at him, sister..."
"Alright, alright, Brother Xuan is back, we're happy, let's not mind about anything else."
She was too exhausted.
Just now, she resembled a little wife waiting bitterly for her husband to return.
Now,
she's behaving like a child.
Such a...
"Everyone, look at what good things I've brought back."
Chen Xuan intentionally interrupted them.
Placing a large hemp sack on the ground, he called them over before opening the bag.
Then,
he began counting the items one by one.
"Look, this is a big bag of white flour."
"This is rice!"
"And...these are eggs..."
"Oh, this is pork fat, sister-in-law, you can refine it later and fry dishes with it. It's very fragrant."
"Also, this is a big bag of soybeans, you can stir-fry them or cook them, either way is fine."
...
The sack seemed like a treasure chest.
Soon,
the entire ground was covered.
At this moment,
looking at the dazzling array of things on the ground,
the jaws of the two women were nearly dropping to the floor.
Chen Xuan sat on a small stool without speaking, just watching the expressions of the two women with a smile.
Only to see,
Su Yun, squatting down, touched the rice, then tilted her head to look at Su Wanqiu with excitement, "Sister, this is rice, it's really rice!"
Rice,
for the Chen Family, no, for the entire Shuanggang Village, it's a scarce item.
It's been unknown how many days since they last ate it, probably half a year.
Su Yun had even forgotten what rice tastes like.
"It's rice, it's rice!"
Su Wanqiu couldn't help but nod and reply, her eyes reddening once more, this time with happiness and excitement.
"And this, white flour, sister, I want to eat white flour."
"Okay, okay, okay."
"This, soybeans..."
The little girl grew more and more excited, even held a handful of soybeans to her face.
However,
she quickly released what was in her hand, and carelessly dropped a few grains on the ground.
But,
she couldn't care less about that now.
Her attention was already drawn to a package of white crystalline substance.
"This...is it white sugar?"
This time she asked Chen Xuan.
"Yes!" He nodded to affirm her question.
The little girl could not wait any longer,
like an eager child, she pinched some and put it in her mouth.
"So sweet!"
She displayed a sweet smile,
then stood up, hugging Su Wanqiu beside her, and cried, "Sister, look, so many good things, our family finally has food, boo hoo..."
"Yes, so much, so much, we finally have food!"
Su Wanqiu couldn't control herself either and started crying tears of joy.
Indeed,
although it's just been this year when they faced natural disasters.
Still,
since she married into the Chen Family, she hadn't seen so many good things.
After the natural disaster,
times grew even harder,
not to mention seeing,
she didn't even dare to dream so big.
But,
now it's truly happening before her eyes.
How can this not make her excited?
Under these circumstances,
the two women cried their hearts out in happiness.
And Chen Xuan, sitting on the stool, sighed emotionally seeing this,
this was akin to sudden wealth, compared to the village.
No wonder the two women acted like this.
He stood up,
came to their side.
He wrapped his arms around the two women, using a particularly firm tone, "From now on, the family's life will get better and better, don't worry, I'll make sure you live well."
After saying this,
he tightly hugged the two women.
At this moment,
Su Yun was okay, wholeheartedly believing in Chen Xuan's words.
Su Wanqiu, of course, believed too,
but,
feeling the masculine aura from Chen Xuan,
her face flushed, and her heart raced.
Involuntarily,
she slightly lowered her head.
The warm atmosphere was soon broken by Chen Xuan,
"Gurgle gurgle..."
He chuckled awkwardly, he was hungry, very hungry!
So he spoke, "Sister-in-law, I'm hungry, can you make me something to eat?"
...
Dinner.
The three ate happily.
Although,
it was still sorghum porridge and such,
they enjoyed it more than ever.
"It's satisfying!"
Chen Xuan patted his round belly,
knowing his appetite was large, and having visited the black market today,
Su Wanqiu had specially prepared extra,
originally thinking she might have prepared too much,
but seeing the empty bowls on the table,
she sighed at Chen Xuan's capacity while feeling grateful she had prepared more.
After dinner,
the two women sent Chen Xuan to the room,
telling him to rest well,
not bothering with the rice and flour he brought back.
Familiar with her personality, Chen Xuan said nothing, went straight to his room.
He couldn't wait any longer.
He wanted to see what kind of cultivation technique the elder had given him in the Nine Revolutions Secret Technique.
Taking it from his bosom,
looking at the blue cover,
at this moment,
Chen Xuan felt his hands trembling slightly.
Hoo~~~~
He calmed himself.
Once entirely composed, he began to flip through the pages.
Half an hour later,
Chen Xuan closed the book.
"Come out!"
Summoning the panel.
[Name: Chen Xuan]
[Lifespan: 18/55]
[Realm: Eight Grade (Muscle Refining)]
[Cultivation Technique: Nine Revolutions Secret Technique (Upper Volume) (Not Started) (0/300), Health Cultivation Technique (Expert)]
[Skills: Advanced Archery, Advanced Tracking Technique, Bedroom Martial Arts (Mastery), Absorbing Palm (Incompatible with Cultivation Requirements)]
[Skill Points: 629]
Upper Volume!
After just finishing the last page, no wonder he felt unsatisfied.
Turns out this book only records the upper volume.
But,
the entrance to the upper volume requires 300 skill points.
Having had the system for so long, he grasped quite a lot.
Most directly, the more advanced the cultivation technique and skills, the more points needed, especially at higher realms.
Just entering requires 300 points,
according to the elder, reaching perfection might take at least several thousand.
Given his current rate of about 20 points per day,
three months is nearly 2000 points.
Is that enough?
He shook his head vigorously,
doesn't matter for now, let's start cultivation, deal with other things later.
"Add points to Nine Revolutions Secret Technique (Upper Volume)!"
.....
Instantly,
a familiar sensation emerged in his chest.
But,
this time the warm current was several degrees stronger than before.
Even,
feeling his chest increasingly hot.
Gradually,
Chen Xuan's face reddened, beads of sweat visibly appearing on his forehead.
