Original God Zhongli BG Xiao Qinglong traveled through time

Chapter 316: By the Water

"Oh, I see!" Yaoyao's face bloomed with a bright smile. She raised her head, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and expectation. She gently shook Lin Huan's arm and continued to ask: "So, Sister Lin Huan's brother must be a very outstanding person, right?" Lin Huan smiled and nodded, with a hint of pride and pride in her eyes. She replied softly: "Yes, he is indeed very outstanding... It is really a very pleasant thing to have him by my side during the journey. Because he can always easily break the silence and make the atmosphere lively, just like having you, little Yaoyao, by my side." Lin Huan said, gently stroking Yaoyao's head, feeling Yaoyao's gentle and soft closeness, and her heart was filled with warmth. The two continued to walk along the winding path, surrounded by tall bamboos and beautiful scenery of green mountains and green waters. Unknowingly, they arrived at a small village hidden in the embrace of the mountains at noon.

Today's Qingce Village is different from the scene depicted in the game, and also different from what Lin Huan remembered five hundred years ago. Compared with the scene in memory, today's Qingce Village has added more vitality and vigor, and many young people have appeared, and the houses are more solid and beautiful. The lush rice fields of the past have been harvested, leaving golden rice stubble, which has become a place for children to chase and play. Since spring sowing has not yet begun, no one stops the children from playing on this harvested land, which also implies the expectation of planting and harvesting in the new season. The old people sit leisurely in the shade of the trees and talk, while the young people return to their hometown with a full year's harvest before the festival. The occasional sounds of chickens and dogs barking together outline a rural picture that is both peaceful and vibrant.

When Xiaoyaoyao saw those familiar scenes again, her mood became obviously happy. She seemed to have turned into a lively and cute little sparrow, jumping lightly along the path. The little bell behind her head swayed gently with every step she took, making a series of crisp and pleasant sounds, as if accompanying her happy mood. Along the way, the elders who knew Xiaoyaoyao greeted her with a smile, and Xiaoyaoyao responded one by one with her polite attitude, with a bright smile on her face.

Along the winding path, Xiao Yaoyao led Lin Huan forward skillfully, as if she knew every corner of the place by heart. Her brisk steps revealed her familiarity and love for this land. Finally, they came to a quiet courtyard. Before they stepped into the courtyard, Xiao Yaoyao's cheerful laughter came, as if her arrival brought endless joy to the courtyard.

"Mom and Dad! Yaoyao is back!" Little Yaoyao shouted excitedly, her voice full of longing for home and attachment to her parents. Her laughter echoed in the courtyard, as if telling everyone that she had finally returned to this place full of warmth and love.

"Is Xiaoyaoyao back?"

Before he finished speaking, the door of the courtyard creaked and then slowly opened. Then, a tall, dark-skinned but handsome man stepped out. His hands were a little rough from years of hard work, but his face was filled with a simple and warm smile, which was full of deep joy for his long-lost daughter. After all, he hadn't seen her for a year. He was wearing a coarse cloth shirt that was old but clean, and he exuded a reassuring and down-to-earth temperament.

The moment she saw her father, Yaoyao was like a happy little bird, flapping her wings excitedly and flying into her father's arms, so much so that she almost completely forgot about Lin Huan who was accompanying her home. Lin Huan folded his hands and stepped back slightly, leaving space for the long-lost family, watching quietly with a soft and warm smile.

Then, a soft and warm laugh came from behind Yaoyao's father. It was a woman's soft and gentle voice. She walked out from behind Yaoyao's father, with an elegant posture and graceful demeanor. Her long hair was tied into a bun behind her head, fixed by a white jade carved hairpin, but a strand of hair fell freely on her shoulders, looking soft and gentle. Her face was like a peach blossom, blooming and bright... At that moment, Lin Huan couldn't help feeling a little dazed, as if at that moment, she saw the person who was lost in time again, the one who always sat behind the counter of Bubulu, extremely gentle but also extremely resolute and firm... her sister Huixin.

"Oh, this child...please forgive me, she hasn't seen her father for a year..." Yaoyao's mother Shen Mei explained softly, with a hint of apology and helplessness in her voice, "They missed each other so much that they forgot about the guests in a hurry. This is indeed rude. I, Shen Mei, apologize to you on behalf of both father and daughter."

"Yaoyao's mother, you are too polite." Lin Huan forced himself to collect his thoughts and responded gently, "Yaoyao is still young. She has lived with Grandma Ping in Liyue Port for a long time. It is rare for her to go home to see her parents. It is understandable that she misses them so deeply. There is no need to apologize. On the contrary, I am sorry for coming here uninvited."

Lin Huan's heart was full of understanding and tolerance. She knew that the relationship between Yaoyao and her father was so deep that at the moment of reunion, they only had each other in their eyes and ignored the guests around them. Lin Huan did not mind this small impoliteness, but was moved by their family affection. She knew how precious such a moment was to Yaoyao and her father. She understood the joy brought by this long-lost reunion, and was naturally happy to give them enough space and time to enjoy this long-lost reunion.
