Since the Lin Clan arrived in the Spirit Realm, one happy event followed another.
Every day, the Duchess of Zhen would mention Immortal Envoy Jiang Feng and, if possible, burn incense three times a day to thank him for bringing good fortune to the Lin Clan.
Mu Liang had his heart set on forging a marriage alliance with the Lin Clan. This time, he brought Mu Qilin along, intending to let the Duchess of Zhen have a look at her.
At eighteen, Mu Qilin had a pretty face, gentle manners, and an elegant air, clearly being a young lady from a reputable family.
Duchess of Zhen naturally adored her and specifically ordered servants to bring Feng Liu and Xu Qiao'er to accompany the two city lord's daughters to the back garden for a stroll.
The purpose was supposedly to enjoy the scenery, but it was actually to introduce them to the young men of their family, hoping to leave an impression on those unmarried descendants.
Feng Liu and Xu Qiao'er faithfully accompanied the daughters through the garden, deliberately passing by the men's usual paths several times.
Thanks to Xu Qiao'er's clever planning, the two ladies completed the task successfully.
Besides the three younger children who had sneaked out of the house, all the remaining unmarried young men encountered the daughters by coincidence.
Mu Qifu found it interesting, repeatedly poking her sister's waist while wearing a playful smile.
Mu Qilin's face flushed red, as she glared at her sister over and over again before ultimately leaving them behind and walking alone to the Lotus Pond.
*
The Lotus Pond faced the Fluttering Snow Residence. Since Wei Shumin had married, Zizhu had followed her to Pine View Garden as her company.
Without a maid in> the Fluttering Snow Residence, Little Yun Xuan became particularly sensible, taking on the responsibilities of sweeping the courtyard and tending to the flowers in the garden.
Little Yun Xiao was now two years old, fluttering his small wings and bouncing along behind his sister, helping to pick up leaves and pluck weeds like a little tail.
From the Lotus Pond, Mu Qilin could see the brother-sister duo sweeping and frolicking in the yard.
Upon seeing Little Yun Xiao's wings clearly, she seemed bewitched by them, her breathing hastened, and she couldn't help but walk over.
“Who are you? What are you doing in the Fluttering Snow Residence?”
Noticing that her stare was fixed on her little brother, Little Yun Xuan became cautious.
Apparently oblivious, Mu Qilin walked straight towards Little Yun Xiao; somehow, the closer she got, the more she felt a familiar sensation and a ache in her heart.
When she reached the boy, she crouched down as if possessed, reaching out both hands, wanting to embrace him.
Little Yun Xuan panicked and quickly hugged her brother before dodging the stranger's grasp. With her delicate voice, she shouted, “Sister Xian'er, Sister Chu Lian, Sister Manyun! Come quickly! Someone is trying to take my little brother away!”
“What's going on?”
“Who wants to take Little Yun Xiao away?”
Upon hearing the shout, Yi Xian'er and Chu Lian hastily rushed out of their rooms, positioning themselves in front of the siblings.
Jiang Manyun arrived even faster. Seeing the bewilderment and confusion on Mu Qilin's face, she gathered a trace of spiritual power at her fingertip and tapped it on Mu Qilin's forehead.
“Ah!”
Mu Qilin screamed, falling backwards while her eyes immediately cleared.
“Sister!”
“What happened?”
“Why did she fall to the ground?”
Xu Qiao'er and the others arrived, looking shocked as they hurriedly helped Mu Qilin back up.
“Sister, how are you? Did you get hurt from the fall?”
Mu Qifu, unaware of the truth, glared at Jiang Manyun, thinking she had bullied her sister.
Mu Qilin clutched her chest with a blank mind, unable to understand her actions just now.
“Her condition is not right.”
Jiang Manyun, not bothering to argue with the little girl, continued with a serious expression, “It's best to let Miss Lin come and have a look.”
