Little Kingfisher saw it clearly: “We don't need to think too much about it, just let it be.”
“Mhm.”
Lin Qingluo agreed in her heart, so she stopped being distracted and continued to focus on studying the formations.

At the beginning of the new year, the Su Clan received good news that Su Ziqin's marriage had been arranged.
Shitou rushed into Fluttering Snow Residence like a gust of wind, informing his master of the great news.
“You just said, who's getting married?”
Upon hearing the words “getting married,” Lin Qingluo was obviously stunned and couldn't believe it, so she asked again.
“Sister Ziqin.”
With a playful expression in his eyes, Shitou repeated the answer one word at a time.
Lin Qingluo looked puzzled: “Who is she marrying?”
“Xu Wei.”
Shitou felt extremely fortunate to be the one delivering the news, as he was able to witness his master's rare shocked expression.
“Him?”
Lin Qingluo was even more shocked: “Why would Sister Ziqin like that Minister of the Ministry of Public Works who is obsessed with visiting Bright Moon Pavilion and having secret rendezvous with beautiful women?”
“Although Xu Wei enjoys a romantic lifestyle and has an air of elegance about him, overall, his character isn't bad, and he doesn't have any particularly terrible habits.”
Shitou gave a playful smile, thinking it necessary to defend Xu Wei a little. After all, he was about to become his brother-in-law and shouldn't leave a bad impression in his master's heart.
“Besides, he's a high official of the court, and he has a lot of interaction with Sister Ziqin. Over time, it's only natural for feelings to develop.”
“Oh, well.”
Lin Qingluo let out a relieved smile: “It's rare for Sister Ziqin to find someone she likes. As her younger siblings, we shouldn't meddle. What's most important is that they have a good relationship.”
“What master said is right.”
Shitou smiled obsequiously and smoothly continued: “Brother Zixuan asked me to tell you that on the second day of the new year, Niuniu is taking the children to her parents' house to celebrate the festival. He wants us all to go home and have a reunion dinner.”
“Alright.”
Lin Qingluo happily agreed: “I'll definitely go home tomorrow.”
“Hehe, master, go on with your work, I'll be on my way.”
Having achieved his goal, Shitou left like a gust of wind.
“Sister Ziqin is finally getting married. This must make our mother very happy. Hearing such good news before ascending is truly delightful.”
Lin Qingluo watched Shitou leave with a smile, stretched out lazily, and with a flash, she disappeared from Fluttering Snow Residence.
The next moment, she appeared in Drunken Frost Residence.
Her grandmother was getting older and her health was declining, so Lin Qingluo should spend more time at home with her.
*
Ten days later, at Wu Mountain on the Polar Ice Field.
Deep in the snow-covered mountain, a girl dressed in white, with a green feather in her hair and three colored stripes on her face, and looking no more than seven or eight years old, was carrying an even smaller baby, only a few months old, as they ran helplessly through the ice and snow.
Right behind her, a wrinkled-faced wizard, waving a Skull Staff, cackled and pursued them relentlessly.
“Ah!”
The snow on the ground was wet and slippery, and the girl twisted her right ankle, fell to the ground, and slid several meters forward with the baby, cutting her forehead open.
“Waaa.”
The little baby, frightened by being pressed under his sister, began to cry loudly.
“Little brother, be good, don't cry.”
Seeing the wizard getting closer, the girl was burning with anxiety. Ignoring the pain in her foot, she forced herself to get up and stagger forward.
“Hmph, you little bitch, you still dare to run.”
The wizard finally caught up and swung his Skull Staff at the girl.
“Ah.”
The girl was struck on the shoulder and fell again, rolling several times on the ground with her brother and bleeding profusely from her injured forehead.
“Hand over your little brother.”
The wizard approached and bent down to snatch the baby away.
