In the current environment, as a child, Ningxia has done enough.
Of course Ning's mother wouldn't want her child to leave home so far? She also wants Ningxia to come back often, one more time, one more time, and always be by her side.
But she also knew that her child was not an ordinary person, and she was not an ordinary little girl who had to wait for her parents to tell her to get married. The opponent is an eagle, a monk who is different from the mortal world, an immortal with a life span of thousands of years and infinite possibilities. Such a person should not be confined to a small house, she should have a farther sky.
Besides, even the children of ordinary people in the mortal world are just old enough. They get married and have their own families and their own worlds. After all, they cannot always be with their parents. This is true for men, and even more so for women.
If Ning Xia had not become a monk, she would most likely have gotten married and entered another family life. She would eventually be farther and farther away from Ning's mother. This is the fate of most women in this world.
In these years, even though Ningxia was busy practicing, she still didn't forget her parents at home. They came back to visit from time to time, which made Ning's father and Ning's mother extremely happy. Even though the number of times she has come back over the years seems to be many, in fact ten fingers is about the same.
They don't expect to really keep this child by their side for a long time. After all... they can't affect the child's future just because of their own selfishness.
She was able to live a smooth life until now, with a stable life and no shortage of anything. She had filial children. She watched them move towards a happy and bright future, and she had close people by her side. Ning's mother felt that she had been very happy in her life.
I think the old man thought so too.
"It really doesn't matter. My parents are not old yet, and their eyesight is not even beautiful. They can even outwork young people like you, and they can live happily for many more years. There is no need for you to worry about your support." . Besides, your brother is not a decoration. He is a pillar of support. He will naturally take care of our elderly care. You just need to live your own life and be good to yourself." Ning's mother patted Ning Xia's hand.
"Don't worry, Xiaoxia, we won't feel lonely." She was only more afraid that Ningxia would be lonely.
This is understanding, but it is also the other side of warmth. It cannot really cut her, but it also gives her another kind of sour and soft astringency. It felt like something heavy was stuck in her throat, unable to swallow, and her heart felt uncomfortable.
"I..." Ning Xia's thousands of words failed to come out. Ning's mother had gently hugged her, and there was no need to say the rest.
The mother and daughter talked a lot more, which made Ningxia's anxiety dissipate a lot.
After a while, the brother and sister-in-law came into the house, and the mother and daughter, born and raised, sat together and chatted peacefully for a while, talking a lot.
Ning's father happened to catch up with the excitement when he came back and joined in. Ning Xia also simplified some of the less thrilling things she did in the world of cultivation and told them to her family, so that they could have some real sense of her life in the world of cultivation.
She also took out the "specialties" of the cultivation world specially prepared for her family and distributed them one by one, making the children who were full of yearning for the cultivation world excited. It's a pity that the elder of her brother's three children has been tested and has no cultivation aptitude. The younger ones are too young to be tested, so they can only ask reliable people to take them for testing in the future.
Ning Dengrong didn't care about this. He felt that destiny had its time and everything was determined by fate. As long as his children can live a good life, it's okay if they don't cultivate immortality.
It's a pity for the brother-in-law. She actually hopes that her daughter can enter that wonderful world like her sister-in-law Ningxia and have more choices and happiness. But this... is actually not bad. She will find a reliable husband for the child, a gentle scholar or a down-to-earth and capable businessman, and watch her have a happy son and daughter around her for a lifetime.
After dinner, Ningxia told Ning's father about this matter again, and the other party's reaction was much greater than that of Ning's mother. He is a typical Chinese father. He is silent and rarely talks. He has worked diligently all his life. He gradually became more cheerful when he was old and had conditions at home.
But he had always been doting on his daughter Ning Xia, and he was never willing to force her to work more even when the family had no conditions. On the contrary, he was very strict with Ning Dengrong.
He never hesitated to be cheerful every time Ning Xia came home, so when he heard that Ning Xia was going on a far journey and might not be able to come back for several years, he couldn't help but react angrily. This kind-hearted father who never blushed when he quarreled with others couldn't help but blush because his little daughter had to stay away from home, and he almost couldn't help crying.
The other party's attitude made Ningxia a little at a loss and couldn't continue talking. Their "quarrel", which was not a quarrel, attracted Ning Dengrong, who had returned early.
The elder brother didn't look surprised at all, and she didn't know what he said to Ning's father. It would be convenient for her to meet her familiar father again. But he was still reluctant to let her go, pulling Ning Xia and insisting that she come back early if she had the chance. She must not wander around outside for ten years before coming back to see her parents.
Because of Ning's father and Ning's mother's melancholy, Ning Xia stayed at Ning's house for more than ten days. She didn't leave until she couldn't stay any longer. A few days ago, she took time to visit Lin's father on the other side of the city. She brought him Lin Pingzhen's letter and told him about her long trip. Naturally, Lin's father was very reluctant to leave.
On the day Ningxia left home, Ning's father and Ning's mother agreed to stay in the house in order not to watch her leave. She vaguely heard Ning's father comforting Ning's mother, which made Ning Xia feel very uncomfortable.
The elder brother took a day off and did not go on duty, which cost his family a whole day. He was the only one who came to see her off at the door.
Her brother has become more dignified over the years, and has long since faded away from the youthful and irritable appearance of his youth. He was the calmest one after hearing the news, and he always tried his best to comfort his parents and was very supportive of Ningxia.
But the other party was unusually silent when they sent her out of Ningxia's house. Ningxia hesitated to speak several times and finally failed to say anything. Because caring for her father and mother is different from caring for her brother. In addition to caring about and being reluctant to leave, she feels a little ashamed of her brother, because it would seem too irresponsible of her to leave the entire responsibility of supporting her parents to him. some.
In the end, Ning Dengrong didn't give her a chance to say anything. He hugged her gently, lowered his head and said to the girl, "Don't worry about home. You should pay attention to your own safety outside... Come back soon."
"Brother and father and mother will wait for you, even if it takes another ten years, as long as you want to come back." We are here, home is here.
"...Okay." The girl said, burying her head on her brother's shoulder, unable to see her expression at the moment.
