Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 289 Three-Day Appointment
"Wangshu, what about you?"

He Shutong looked at Wangshu with a doting and expectant look in his eyes.

She stroked the surface of the pond with her delicate hands, causing ripples to form.

This is one of the most important moments in Wangshu's life, and she will witness this moment with her own eyes. She feels very happy both as a stepmother and a master.

Wangshu blinked, a little confused:
"Should I say it too?"

"Sister, you don't understand these red tapes, so there's no need to go through with it..."

"How can this be possible? Becoming a Taoist couple is a very serious matter. In the mortal world, every marriage must be signed with three letters and six ceremonies, and witnessed by the marriage bureaus in various places. Although the marriage bureau cannot control people who practice Taoism, the marriage vows are indispensable. This is the contract that you will be together for life, and it is the proof that you can seek the approval of the Heavenly Dao."

Wangshu nodded seriously, then knelt down neatly like Yousu. This was the first time she knelt before someone in nearly fifty years.

"Then I want to say it too. Please teach me, Master."

He Shutong smiled and raised her jade hand slightly, and saw a little orange-red spark suddenly hanging on the surrounding trees, adding a touch of festive warmth to the quiet night.

You Su used his spiritual sense to explore and found that there were actually two red candles standing on the branches. He was slightly touched by his master's sense of ritual, and he could truly feel her joy at this moment.

"I'll say one sentence at a time, and you can repeat after me."

He Shutong straightened his slender waist and cleared his throat with a few coughs, not daring to be indecent in this sacred moment.

"Ah."

Wangshu also felt the solemnity. She nervously pinched the corner of her clothes with her jade hands, waiting for He Shutong to speak.

"A marriage certificate, presented to the heavens, reported to the underworld, and presented to the ninth heaven, please let me be a witness."

"A marriage certificate, presented to the heavens, reported to the underworld, and presented to the ninth heaven, please let me be a witness."

Wangshu repeated loudly what He Shutong said.

"You should say 'Please Master, bear witness'."

He Shutong smiled helplessly and corrected the girl.

The girl lowered her head again, as if she was a little ashamed, but she could also feel that You Su and He Shutong had no intention of laughing at her, so she mustered up her courage and said:

"Master, please bear witness!"

You Su was secretly surprised. Senior Sister always spoke softly, but the volume of this sentence was so loud that it did not match her cold temperament.

"If you betray me, it's intentional. You will be expelled from the Three Realms and will never be reincarnated again."

"If you betray me, it's intentional. You will be expelled from the Three Realms and will never be reincarnated again."

She said this with utmost seriousness, and the person she was facing was naturally He Shutong, the witness.

He Shutong showed a strange expression and corrected: "It's you, not me."

Wangshu looked puzzled: "Master, I said 'you', not 'I'."

You Su was horrified when he heard this. He couldn't even imagine what his master's wife would say to him one day.

He Shutong frowned, "Who is going to form a Taoist partner with your junior brother?"

"It's me." Wangshu answered straightforwardly, as if he was afraid that You Su would be snatched away by someone.

"That's it, come again."

Wangshu finally understood what his master meant, and said again: "If I betray you, it would be intentional. I will be expelled from the Three Realms and will never be reincarnated."

He Shutong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Wangshu's imitation almost made him a big joke.

"Wangshu is a congenital spirit, and Yousu is also an orphan. I will bear witness as a master and pass on the promise of a long life together. I will write on the red paper so that the red leaf alliance can be recorded in the love genealogy."

After He Shutong finished reading, he took a long breath and said in a straight voice:
"From this moment on, Izumo City's Yousu and Henggao Mountain's Wangshu will become Taoist companions. Let's make a covenant together and our marriage will last forever!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the candles lit up brightly, as if celebrating the important moment of the newlyweds' marriage.

You Su felt something and accurately grabbed his senior sister's hand.

It is no longer cold to the touch, but warm, like a piece of warm jade that has been soaked in a hot spring.

Wangshu also held Yousu's hand with her backhand. She didn't quite understand the etiquette, but she somehow felt that from this moment on, the relationship between her and her junior brother had become different.

He Shutong looked at the two people being affectionate and tender, and felt a dullness in his eyes.

"Well, the engagement is final, get up."

The two of them slowly stood up. You Su looked at Wangshu and laughed foolishly, but didn't know what to say. Wangshu also looked at You Su frankly, as if he took it as a kind of enjoyment.

He Shutong was the one who felt embarrassed, secretly sighing that the two were really a perfect match. One was a blind man, and the other was a fairy with a pure mind. They could probably look at each other for a whole night without feeling embarrassed.

"When I found Wangshu, it was the third day of the first lunar month. It was from that day that I started to give her a name and tell her fortune. From this perspective, the third day of the first lunar month is Wangshu's birthday.

Wangshu has always been very obedient and well protected by everyone. Only on her birthday will I allow her to indulge herself a little. Wangshu has a quiet temperament, and we in Lotus Peak don't like disturbances, so there is no need to hold a grand banquet like other immortals do when they marry. Three days later, Wangshu's 50th birthday is also a good day. The four masters and apprentices of Lotus Peak will hold a simple wedding banquet for you. How about it?"

Of course, she said this to You Su. How could You Su refuse such a good thing?

"Everything is up to Master's Wife! But..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that I don't know what kind of betrothal gift I should give. This is the first time for me. Master's wife is my elder, and she is also my elder. Why don't you make a request, and I will do my best to meet it."

"No need for that. We are already a family, so why bother talking about dowry or betrothal gifts? The best gift you can give to each other is to live in harmony and spend the rest of your lives together."

He Shutong seemed very open-minded, which deeply moved You Su.

"Suer will definitely do it!"

"Well, your wish has been fulfilled. Go and get some rest. It's getting late."

He Shutong just felt like he had completed an important mission, and had a sense of relief after getting what he wanted.

"Thank you, Master! Have a good rest then!"

You Su quickly bowed and was about to leave with his sister.

He Shutong stopped him, "Wait, I told you to go and rest, not Wangshu to leave. Wangshu, please stay here with me. I want to talk to you."

You Su was stunned at first, but soon he understood. This is just like a woman getting married and not being allowed to see the groom until a few days before the wedding.

On the one hand, it is to avoid conflicting happiness, and on the other hand, the bride's mother will teach her daughter, who is about to become a wife, some private knowledge before marriage.

"I know you two really love each other, but Wangshu still has only a vague understanding of many things. I will teach her more in the next few days. You don't have to come to Lianshengchi if you have nothing else. After the wedding banquet in three days, I will return your sister to you." "Yes, then I will come to pick up my sister in three days."

You Su would naturally not go against his master's wife's plan. He also knew that some things were indeed inconvenient for him to teach, and it would be best if his master's wife could do it for him.

You Su reluctantly played with the girl's plump jade-like hand and said, "Senior Sister, I'll leave first. I'll come pick you up on your birthday."

Wangshu and Yousu had just gotten married, and at this moment, he didn't want to leave Yousu for a moment, holding Yousu's hand tightly:

"don't want……"

"Wangshu, don't be stubborn. A short separation is for a longer stay together."

Wangshu hesitated, but finally put her hand down obediently. Although she was not very mature, she understood the importance of things.

You Su gave Wangshu a reassuring smile and walked into the fairy forest, looking back every few steps.

He Shutong sighed in his heart. He felt a lot of pressure when he thought about teaching this pure and innocent girl that kind of thing. But this is also the only way for the girl to become a normal person. She is not an ethereal fairy.

As You Su walked in the forest, it was impossible for him not to look forward to the next three days. Today's success made him more confident. In his mind, he could not forget the words of marriage recited by his master's wife and his sister.

The master's wife is both a teacher and a mother to my senior sister, and I also have a filial piety towards her.

If it is really possible, just saying it is possible, then it is not just a master-disciple relationship, but also a rice bowl relationship...

As he was thinking this, You Su was almost tripped by a stone on the roadside.

This was rare for him who would subconsciously avoid obstacles when walking. His heart was beating fast as if he was a guilty thief. He slapped his face in panic, trying to calm himself down and not fall into such a bold delusion.

He had just confirmed his relationship with his senior sister, but it was wrong for him to think so far ahead...

……

When You Su returned to the room, he found Ji Lingruo sitting in his room waiting.

The girl flipped through the book at hand, but in fact she couldn't read a single word. She said casually:

"Senior Sister didn't come out?"

"Master's wife said to keep her for three days, and asked me and Junior Sister to pick her up after three days. It's a good opportunity for the four of us, the master and disciples of Lotus Peak, to have a reunion and a meal."

The bright candlelight illuminated Ji Lingruo after she had taken a bath, making her look bright and charming. Her face showed no joy or sadness, and she said calmly:
"You mean we're going to hold the wedding banquet in three days, and we're going to train Senior Sister to be a qualified Taoist partner in the next few days?"

You Su didn't dare to continue the conversation, so he could only say: "Three days later is my senior sister's birthday..."

Ji Lingruo curled her lips, feeling that the book was so densely packed with words that each one was an eyesore, so she closed the book:
"It seems that I was right. What will you do to me if I don't go?"

You Su pursed his lips, knowing that the girl was just throwing a tantrum:
"If Junior Sister doesn't go, the wedding banquet won't be held... Of course, we have to wait until Junior Sister is willing to go before holding the wedding banquet."

"You know the truth."

Ji Lingruo finally turned to look at You Su. Seeing the young man's timid and fearful look, he didn't even dare to sit down. He felt much more relieved.

While she was taking a shower, she was worried about whether she was too kind and that was why her senior brother dared to be indecisive. Did she have no status at all in his eyes?

You Su's behavior proved that the young man still had her in his heart. At least he knew that she was the "first wife" in public.

"What are you standing there for? Sit down."

Ji Lingruo kicked the stool beside her and started fiddling with the objects in her hands, which turned out to be a pair of scissors and a piece of red paper.

"Junior sister, why do you want to cut paper? What did you cut?"

You Su quickly sat down, showing concern.

"It was just a casual cut, nothing was cut." Ji Lingruo replied casually, and then asked, "Take Senior Sister to see Master, what did you say? Tell me everything."

You Su knew he couldn't get away with it, so he poured himself two cups of tea and slowly repeated to Ji Lingruo the conversation that had taken place by the Liansheng Pond tonight.

"That day, my senior sister rescued me. When I saw her face through the crack in her mask, I could only see a glowing mist. I was shocked at the time, but now I know that there are such magical creatures in the world. From this perspective, you are really out of your league."

"Junior sister is the second princess of the snake clan, and I am marrying above my station." You Su said sweetly.

Ji Lingruo didn't listen to the boy's coaxing and complained: "No matter how tall the second princess is, she can't be taller than the eldest princess."

You Su really didn't know how to respond and could only scratch his head and smile bitterly.

Ji Lingruo gave You Su a dirty look, but did not continue to make things difficult for him. Instead, she focused on the work at hand.

You Su just accompanied her silently. He could feel that his junior sister was still resentful, but she should have acquiesced long ago, so why was she resentful for no reason?

He thought about it and finally figured out the reason.

"Although my junior sister and I are Taoist companions, we have never had any ceremony. Tomorrow is the first day of the first lunar month, the first day of the year. Why don't my junior sister and I go to ask the master's wife for a witness tomorrow?"

Ji Lingruo suddenly glanced at You Su, not expecting that her thoughts were so easy to guess, and then muttered:
"Who cares... Although the master is good, he is not my closest relative. You asked for a witness, but you haven't even seen my people. You should at least go to my mother's grave."

You Su also felt guilty. His junior sister had no one to rely on in Zhongyuanzhou, but he handed her over to him without the approval of his tribe members. This love and trust was really hard for him to repay.

Ji Lingruo's original intention of saying this was not to make You Su blame himself. She hesitated and said, "Besides...my sister is not here."

You Su nodded slightly, "That's good, then Junior Sister can be with Xueruo, double happiness."

Ji Lingruo widened her beautiful eyes and kicked You Su's calf, "What are you thinking about! An elder sister is like a mother. I want my sister to witness with her own eyes who will marry her. No matter what, I will be the first one, okay? From now on, she has to call me sister!"

You Su raised his eyebrows slightly, only then did he realize that the girl had such a 'evil' mind, and was actually thinking about letting the proud Xueruo call her sister.

"What, you don't want to?"

Ji Lingruo looked at You Su's embarrassed expression and said angrily, "You just bully me!"

"How could that be? It must be Junior Sister who made the big one!"

You Su also tried to comfort her in a gentle voice. His difficulty was not because he did not want to acknowledge his junior sister as the boss, but because he was worried that his junior sister would not be able to defeat Miss Xueruo and would continue to fight hard, and in the end, he would probably be the one who suffered.

Ji Lingruo finally felt relieved after getting the promise. Since she was destined to share her senior brother with other women, her family status had to be confirmed.

She took the scissors in her hand, then slowly spread out the red paper-cut, which turned out to be the word "囍".

She and Yousu had indeed lacked a solemn ceremony from the time they were in the coffin until today. Even if she was willing to leave that day for later, she would still worry about Wangshu getting there first.

She pasted the paper-cut on the window, blushing, the girl murmured:

"kiss Me……"

On this New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers popped on Lotus Peak, where fireworks were prohibited.
