ecause my legs hurt so badly. Thinking about this, I immediately bowed my head and said, "This clothes is one size too big, I can just alter it."After saying that, I ran downstairs to get the sewing k...Hearing my brother's voice, I felt relieved and fell into a deep sleep.
There is a person in this world who shares the same blood as me, and my trust in him surpasses myself.
He always knows how to make me laugh, no matter how big the problem is, even if I'm crying my eyes out, he can make me feel like "It's nothing, it's not a big deal."
"Xiao Qiao, why are you giggling You haven't even wiped away your tears yet, and you're already smiling foolishly." My brother brushed my hair off my forehead and patted my face with a smile: "Are you awake Get up and go to the restroom. You've been asleep for a whole day and night! This is a hospital bed, you know, wetting the bed costs extra!"
I opened my eyes with a smile, it was an ordinary hospital room, and my brother was by my side.
There was a faint blue tinge to his eyes, he must have pulled an all-nighter.
"I've got your shoulder fixed. Stay still, or you'll risk a crooked bone."
"Well, no need to hug me, I'm fine." I walked in slippers to the bathroom.
In the mirror, I looked like a mess with my long hair tangled up like a bird's nest and puffy, red eyes. I didn't even know how many tears I had cried the previous night.
When I returned to the ward, the doctor happened to be making rounds and reminded me of the precautions, allowing me to go home for rest.
"This bone-setting technique is excellent, perfect." Before leaving, the doctor also complimented the person who pushed my shoulder back.
I smiled faintly.
On the way back, I learned what happened after I passed out from my brother.
Jiang Qiyun was about to let the Shen family arrange a ward, but my brother firmly refused. He carried me out of the alley himself, not allowing anyone to help. Yin Cha Da Bao drove us to Renmin Hospital.
"I think Jiang Qiyun has a lot of hostility... The little ghost messengers came to report, saying they heard you reciting the Bao Gao (a charm) summoning, and as soon as they appeared, they found the name seal thrown away. They appeared where the name seal landed, and you were nowhere to be found, so they hurried to report to Jiang Qiyun."
"Jiang Qiyun heard this, immediately broke open the Ghost Gate and directly dragged the soul-refining of that evil sect saintess into the Nether Hell... Originally that woman's soul was also implicated, and she died instantly..."
Later, he summoned the City God, Land Gods, and ghost soldiers. The entire Widow Lane area within a kilometer radius was turned upside down by his men. All those people ended up in the hospital today... they got infected with too much negative energy.
Cheng Banxian knew you were gone after. Thinking back to that Xiaolan leaving his courtyard, he probably saw you, so he immediately went to look for Xiaolan and found that her place was surrounded by barriers. We wanted to go in, but there were too many Sanskrit spells, we couldn't break through! Jiang Qiyun and the others' magical powers are too limited when they are in the Yang world.
"Sigh... I heard from Yin Cha Da Bao that Jiang Qiyun has committed a grave taboo this time... He directly destroyed two souls, regardless of the sins those souls might have committed, as the one in charge of the underworld, he not only showed favoritism but also used such heavy-handed measures. It's possible that he will be summoned for tea!"
I was listlessly curled up in the back seat when I heard this, my eyelids twitching slightly.
There are people outside of people, and there are heavens outside of heavens. He could also be summoned
Besides him, there should be two other venerated deities who preceded him as leaders of the Underworld. He'll probably get scolded and punished, I reckon.
"Brother... we should contact Cheng Banxian as soon as possible. I want to cure Dad quickly."
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll never see him again.
I really feel like I'll die young. I hope to see my dad recover before I die, and that both he and my brother will have companionship.
"Okay, okay, you should take good care of yourself! You have a little one in your belly! Oh, by the way! I told the doctor yesterday that you're pregnant, so he'll be careful with his medication and treatment. He said you should get checked out, because getting hurt could be bad for the baby…"
I wryly smiled and said, "How do I check A normal person's belly should start showing after three months, but mine hasn't moved an inch. What if the hospital ultrasound shows nothing but a cloudy mass instead of a fetus How am I supposed to explain that"
My brother let out a heavy sigh: "This is really frustrating! Maybe we should go see Old Aunt"
"...I want to go home and sleep."

Chén Bànxiān said that the creature I needed to raise was actually several large roosters.
He said to me earnestly, “These aren’t ordinary chickens. Look at their feathers, look at their eyes, you just know these are very, very expensive…free-range chickens, pure natural feeding, no feed…Ouch! Don't hit me, you should respect your elders!”
My brother raised the duster he used to clean antique furniture and whacked him: “Cut the crap! Get to the point!”
In short, you need to feed these chickens with centipedes. Here's the contact information for a centipede farm. You can contact them yourselves. I don't have time to help you feed them. Later, you will use these chickens to peck at the poison I extract.
He gave me a lot of instructions and promised to perform an exorcism on my father in ten days.
A glimmer of hope flickered in my heart. Sitting on my father's wicker chair in the courtyard, I watched my brother and Mr. Chen build a chicken coop.
A sudden chill touched my nose, and when I looked up, snow was falling from the sky.
November has arrived.
From late summer to deep autumn, and then into early winter, my mood has also gone through three seasons.
The scorching heat of late summer, the tender embrace of autumn, and the desolate beauty of early winter.
"It's so cold, Xiao Qiao, don't sit in the yard. Go make some dinner. I want to have hot pot!" My brother shouted at me.
"Young hero, young heroine, could you add another pair of chopsticks..."
"Get out of here! Don't you see my sister is injured Are you shameless to eat and drink for free!"
……
It takes a month to recover from a dislocation, fortunately it's my left shoulder, which doesn't much affect my life. I can still wrap myself in plastic wrap to keep dry when taking a shower.
These days Jiang Qiyun hasn't shown up. Maybe it's because of my hysterical words, causing the string connecting our kites to snap.
I've never felt this 1.2 meter bed cramped, but now lying on it, I feel like I'm lying on a wasteland.
Everyone says it takes 100 days to form a habit. I've spent 100 days getting used to him being here, and I can also spend 100 days getting used to him not being here. It's really no big deal.
Whether it's my unborn child, my womb, or even my life, take them all. I even have a faint hope of dying so that I won't have to endure the pain of the rest of my life.
As long as my father gets better and my brother doesn't have to shoulder all of this alone, I will be at ease, content, and worry-free.
I've been staying home nursing my injuries these days. School is on a long break, so things like credits and failing grades don't matter anymore. Strangely enough, Song Wei called to tell me that our homeroom teacher marked me as present for all classes, and even the subject teachers, including the most difficult one, Xie Dingding, didn't mention that Mu Xiaoqiao hadn't been there
Just as I was puzzled, several Maybachs stopped in front of my house. Lin Yanhuan walked in with the domineering aura that comes naturally to royalty, making my small shop seem prosperous and vibrant.
"Mr. Lin, hello..." I greeted him lazily.
Lin Yanhuan smiled faintly: "How come, you don't seem to welcome me"
"...Your tasks are more difficult than mine. As I am currently injured, I'm afraid I can't accept your care right now."
Upon hearing this, he let out a light chuckle——stoop to enter. Though naturally tall, he now stood beside the stove, his sleeves rolled up to his elbows, his head bowed as he washed away the dew and dust from the fresh bamboo shoots in a basin of...
