Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!

Chapter 660 Parting

Ling'er looked at Yao Yao gratefully, "Yao Yao, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would probably still be suffering from those people's contempt and insults in Li Family Village."

Yao Yao smiled, her eyes crinkling, her face beaming.

"Sister Ling'er, it's because we are destined to be together."

Ling'er pinched Yao Yao's cheek. "We're leaving tonight. We won't be able to spend the New Year with Yao Yao in the capital."

Yao Yao was stunned for a moment. After all, she was still a child. When she heard that the person in front of her was leaving tonight, her eyes reddened slightly, and she asked in a soft voice, "Is it so urgent?"

She knew that Sister Ling'er would leave sooner or later, but she didn't expect her to leave so soon.

Ling'er gently wiped away Yao Yao's tears. "You also know that the other three kingdoms, including Anping Kingdom, are eyeing Fengluo Kingdom covetously. As a princess of a kingdom, shouldn't you quickly lead your people to take over Fengluo Kingdom?"

"It's a pity that I can't spend the New Year with you in Beijing."

His words carried a hint of regret.

“Yaoyao knows that rebuilding a country will cost a lot of money. Yaoyao has a lot of gold and silver jewelry, which Yaoyao can give to Sister Ling’er.”

Yao Yao stared at Ling'er with her round eyes, looking very serious.

Ling'er chuckled, pinched Yao Yao's nose, and said, "No need, my father and mother left me a sum of money, enough for me to rebuild Fengluo Kingdom."

"More than twenty years ago, Fengluo Kingdom was the leader of the five kingdoms."

Yao Yao nodded, "Okay, Sister Ling'er, just tell me if you need anything!"

"it is good!"

...............

night

The family sat down at the dining table to prepare for dinner.

"Yaoyao, tonight we've got your favorite braised pork knuckle and roast chicken." Grandma Liu said happily to Yaoyao, "But you have to eat some vegetables, otherwise you'll be nutritionally unbalanced."

Yao Yao kept her eyes fixed on the dishes on the table and nodded emphatically.

"OK."

The family watched with delight as Yao Yao looked on with longing.

Can't help but laugh.

We have these same dishes at home every day, but Yao Yao never gets tired of them.

What a greedy little cat.

Grandma Liu looked around but didn't see Ling'er.

"Why didn't Ling'er come to eat?" Old Mrs. Liu said to the maid, "Go and call Miss Ling'er out for dinner. The food gets cold quickly in this cold weather."

"Yes!" the maid nodded.

Just as I was about to step out of the main hall, I saw Ling'er gracefully approaching.

He carried a thin package on his back.

Ye Wan was puzzled. "Ling'er, what's going on?"

"Ling'er," Shen Chulan called out.

Yuan Laosi's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling.

Ling'er knelt down on the ground with a thud, "Ling'er is sorry, everyone."

Grandma Liu realized what was happening and quickly went over to help Ling'er up. "Oh dear, what's wrong with you? Why are you kneeling down all of a sudden?"

Grandma Liu glanced at the bundle on Ling'er's back and asked, "What are you doing carrying that bundle? Where are you going?"

Ling'er looked at Old Lady Liu and said, "I came here for this very reason."

"Madam, am I going home?"

Old Master Liu was overjoyed, his face beaming with happiness for Ling'er.

"Really? Where are your family members? Are they also in Beijing? You found your family and didn't even tell us."

Ling'er shook her head. "No, I'm going back to Fengluo Kingdom."

"Phoenix Fall Kingdom!" Old Lady Liu exclaimed in surprise, then covered her mouth and cried out, "Wasn't Phoenix Fall Kingdom destroyed and reduced to ruins more than twenty years ago? How could your family members be in the ruins?"

The Yuan family members also looked at Ling'er with surprise.

Yuan Laosi felt increasingly uneasy, looking nervously at Ling'er's delicate and bright face.

Yao Yao was starving, so she climbed onto the table, tore off a chicken leg, and mumbled an explanation for Ling'er.

“Sister Ling’er is the princess of Fengluo Kingdom, and Fengluo Kingdom has recovered its vitality, so naturally Sister Ling’er should go back.”

"Sister Ling'er's people are waiting for her outside the General's Mansion!"

Looking at Ling'er's eyes, one black and one blue, Old Lady Liu suddenly remembered what Yao Yao had told her: being born with heterochromia meant she was destined for an extraordinary life.

Perhaps this is the life that Ling'er should have lived.

"Ling'er, are you really sure?" Old Mrs. Liu asked.

Old Yuan stared intently at Ling'er, afraid she would nod.

Don't... nod.

But Ling'er's reaction disappointed him.

Ling'er nodded, "Yes, I've made up my mind."

Old Mrs. Liu knew that she had made up her mind, so she asked, "How about having a meal before you leave?"

She couldn't bear to part with the child in front of her; the child was well-behaved, beautiful, gentle, and considerate of everyone.

Looking into those expectant yet fearful eyes, Ling'er nodded.

I don't know when we'll be able to sit down and have a meal together again after this departure.

Yuan Laosi was very disappointed, but his expression remained unchanged. He quietly and cautiously observed Ling'er.

Half an hour later...

The Yuan family escorted Ling'er outside the capital city.

"It's cold now, and the journey is long, so don't catch a cold." Old Mrs. Liu tightened Ling'er's clothes, her face full of worry.

In December, a thick layer of snow fell on the capital city.

Not to mention the rugged mountain roads, where the thin ice on the ground makes them slippery and difficult to walk on.

I wonder when I'll be able to go to Phoenix Lands.

Yao Yao took out a wooden box. "Sister Ling'er, there are explosive talismans, attack talismans, and healing pills in here. If anyone bullies you, just throw one out and they'll be torn to pieces."

Ling'er was very touched, and without being coy, she accepted it readily.

They really need this.

"Take this package with you." Shen Chulan handed a heavy package to Ling'er.

A series of muffled thuds came from the package, and Ling'er immediately knew what was inside, shaking her head repeatedly.

"Madam, no need."

Shen Chulan smiled at Ling'er, "Still calling me Madam? Just call me Sister Chulan." As she spoke, she grabbed Ling'er's hand and hugged the package, "Take this. We're family. What family member goes on a long journey without giving travel expenses?"

Ye Wan also handed a package to Ling'er, saying, "Yes, we are family."

Each member of the Yuan family gave Ling'er something to carry with her.

"Open this package after you get on the carriage," Yuan Laosi instructed.

Ling'er didn't dare to look up into Yuan Laosi's eyes, and nodded.

He turned and got into the carriage.

The sound of the carriage rubbing against the ground grew fainter and fainter as the Yuan family entered the city.
