Acai's Sky

Chapter 279: 5 years...

The world outside is turbulent and changing rapidly, but all this seems to have nothing to do with Ah Cai.

She still lives a carefree life as she pleases, and is so comfortable and leisurely from morning to night every day.

No matter how chaotic and noisy the outside world is, Ah Cai is still just an innocent child, and can naturally choose the lifestyle she wants.

Every morning, when the first ray of sunlight shines through the window, Acai will get up early and go to the courtyard to practice the smooth and flowing Tai Chi techniques.

After noon, he would return to the house to read and write quietly, immersing himself in the ocean of knowledge.

I took a short nap at noon to recharge my energy, and after waking up, I picked up my beloved flute and played a beautiful piece of music.

Occasionally, when he was in a good mood, he would sneak out of the house and run to the streets to listen to storytellers telling strange stories that happened in the mansions of major families, sometimes laughing and sometimes marveling.

At night, she would light the furnace and carefully refine various precious elixirs...

Time flies by like a white horse, and in the blink of an eye, five whole years have passed.

During this long period of time, Acai has always maintained her love for life and her persistent pursuit of life, making every day full and meaningful.

……

This morning,

The morning sun shone into the courtyard. Ah Cai, wearing a loose training suit, had just finished practicing a set of smooth Tai Chi techniques.

At this moment, she only felt that the breath in her body was smooth and the meridians in her body were unobstructed, as if her body had returned to normal.

After a short rest, Ah Cai couldn't wait to pick up the long sword placed beside her and continue practicing her sword skills.

At that moment, Tong Jiawu, carrying two large food boxes, lightly stepped into Ah Cai's courtyard. Seeing her master already practicing swordplay, Tong Jiawu understood: it seemed her master had recovered and was in excellent condition.

When Ah Cai saw Tong Jiawu coming, she immediately stopped what she was doing.

He smiled and greeted her, "Good morning!"

Tong Jiawu also quickly responded: "Good morning, Master~"

Tong Jiawu then showed a look of joy on her face and asked with concern, "Master, has the soul and body completely merged?"

Upon hearing this, Ah Cai nodded happily and replied, "Yes, it's finally done. If it happens again, I'm afraid I'll have to seal part of my soul. That would be unbearable!"

Seeing this, Tong Jiawu quickly covered her mouth and chuckled, "Hehe... Other people's lives as time travelers aren't as difficult as mine! Look at the second young master of the Wuwei Marquis's Mansion, he's full of energy and fun all day long!"

Hearing this, Ah Cai immediately became interested and turned around to ask curiously, "Oh? What's he been up to lately? I haven't heard from him in quite a while."

"Haha, it's a little funny, but I'll tell you more later. Now, you should go wash up!"

Tong Jiawu raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a bright smile, and spoke gently to Acai.

After hearing this, Acai nodded obediently, ran into the house, and in the blink of an eye she was in the [temperature-controlled shower room] that was full of technology and comfort.

Tong Jiawu walked into the side hall with light steps. She carefully placed the exquisite food box in her hand on the table, and then opened the lid gracefully.

As the food box was slowly opened, an enticing aroma instantly spread.

I saw her methodically taking out the delicious breakfast she brought one by one and placing them neatly on the dining table.

The first thing that catches your eye is a small bowl of steaming, golden pumpkin millet porridge, whose thick texture seems to emit a warm glow.

Next came a basket of crystal clear, white jade-like steamed shrimp dumplings, each one small and exquisite, making people salivate.

There are also a few pieces of fragrant potato pancakes, which are crispy on the outside and soft, sweet and delicious on the inside, making people want to take a bite.

The plate on the side was filled with refreshing and delicious shredded beef. The tender beef paired with green vegetables looked very tempting.

There were also several beautifully crafted shrimp sandwiches, with juicy shrimp in the middle and the bread soft and delicious.

Finally, there is a small bowl of delicious fish ball and seaweed soup. The round and plump fish balls look particularly tempting against the backdrop of seaweed.

A Cai sat down and ate while staring at Tong Jiawu, indicating that she could tell the story.

Tong Jiawu laughed as she recounted, "The second young master who traveled through time wrote a poem... which was actually a plagiarism of a Tang Dynasty poem.

I ran to show it to Lord Lin, hoping to get his praise. It just so happened that Lord Lin was seeing off a friend outside the city, and the poem he presented was

"Cold rain falls on the river and enters Wu at night; at dawn I bid farewell to my guest, amidst the lonely mountains of Chu. If friends and family in Luoyang ask about me, I will tell them that my heart is as pure as ice, as clear as a jade pot."

Who would have thought that after reading the poem, Lin Hou asked him in confusion, "Where is Luoyang? Are the mountains of Chu solitary? What is the meaning of entering Wu?" "Although the words are beautiful, they can't be made up!"

Ah Cai swallowed the food in her mouth and asked, "Why is he in such a hurry? He knows that Lord Lin is not his biological father?"

Tong Jiawu also laughed, "He met his biological father, Qin Beast, the young master of the Qin family. He asked the second young master to approach Lord Lin, as if he wanted him to do something and gave him five thousand taels of silver!"

Ah Cai, “…”

"Now when a father asks his son to do something, he has to pay for it himself? It's so expensive!"

Ah Cai picked up a shrimp dumpling and asked, "The people outside the mansion are looking for treasure. Haven't they found the entrance yet?"

Tong Jiawu nodded, "That's right! Not only can't we find the people from the Marquis' Mansion, we can't even find the Zhai family members that the emperor sent for..."

Ah Cai held up the shrimp dumplings and said, "It's strange. We can all find it, why can't they find it..."

Tong Jiawu pondered, "Could it be that it was specially left for the male protagonist to discover?"

Ah Cai put down her chopsticks and tapped the table. "Let Ah Er lead them to the secret passage and uncover the underground treasure. I've noticed the weather has been a bit unusual lately, so it's best to be cautious."

……

Ah Da wiped the sword in his hand. This was a habit he developed after coming to this plane and playing the role of a ranger.

Ah Er hasn't gone to the Marquis' Mansion to watch the play today, and is chatting with Ah San!

Tong Jiawu walked in and saw the three of them. "Let's ask Marquis Lin to clean up their mansion. Our master said the weather is unusual and wants to take out the treasure in advance..."

Ah Da stopped what he was doing and said, "Then we need to speed up. There are so many things going on in the Lin Marquis's mansion. It's so chaotic that he has to watch the show all day long."

Ah Er disagreed, "Once the opera singers start making trouble, everyone will be kicked out. It's no big deal!"

Ah San also agreed with Ah Er, "Go tell Lord Lin that our young lady wants to go back to the mansion to play hide-and-seek..."
