Xiao Yue jumped up and down, saying: "The chapter is less than 50% complete, just wait until midnight and you can read it!" Yunmian felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at, not knowing if he had inadvertently turned his forehead red, and subconsciously tilted his head to the side, looking at the fox lady in front of him with suspicion. "You..."
The hostess stared at the red mark on her forehead, still in shock, and subconsciously stretched out her hand to touch Yunmian's brow.
Yunmian saw the fox lady's hand reaching out to her and couldn't help but close her eyes, letting out a soft "mm" as she felt the warm fingertips brush against her forehead. Then, all she heard was the fox lady asking: "This red mark... is it born with?"
"What's wrong?"
Yunmian didn't expect Hu Zhuren to ask this, and naturally perked up her ears to look at her own forehead.
The birthmark on her forehead had indeed been there since she was born, but Yunmeng herself couldn't see it normally, so she didn't pay much attention to where it came from.
She carefully looked at the mistress of the fox, saw that the woman in front of her was elegant and refined, with an expression that didn't seem angry, so she honestly replied: "I'm not very clear either, but I've had it since I became conscious, it should be..."
The Fox Spirit's Wife asked: "Can you... transform into a human form for me to see?"
That's no problem at all, Yunmian nodded.
The mistress of the fox host suddenly came to her senses and realized that she had been staring at someone else's child for too long. She hastily regained her composure and said: "It doesn't look good talking here, follow me first, let's go inside and talk."
As she spoke, she personally led Yunmian into the palace, and Yunmian quickly followed.
……
Is such a thing really possible in this world?
After a moment, the mistress of the Fox clan sat opposite Yunmian in the guest room. She gazed at the young girl sitting in front of her and couldn't speak for a while. The girl in front of her was about the same age as Wen Ting, 13 or 14 years old, with a tender and delicate complexion. Her skin was snow-white, her features were elegant, and her plain clothes couldn't hide her beauty. A pair of almond-shaped eyes sparkled brightly, and she sat there looking somewhat at a loss. Even among the beautiful women of the Fox clan, she could be considered extremely pretty, with a face that would undoubtedly attract attention from others... From the mistress's perspective, she could see the bright red mole on her forehead.
This red shape resembles a flower, with petals divided into three leaves, just like half of a red lotus.
The red mark on the girl's forehead was also of this shape, and could be said to be a sideways view of a lotus flower, or a front-facing half-flower. As the son she had raised herself, Mistress Hu naturally knew his appearance well, and the mark on the girl's forehead was identical to his in every way; if they were put together, they would form a complete red lotus!
How can such things happen in this world?
The mistress of the fox was indeed hard to conceal her surprise.
Rare as the heavenly red lotus is, one bloom is already a rare find, yet it has given birth to a pair! This is truly unheard of and unseen! Could it be that in this world... there really is such a thing as a heaven-born perfect match?!
The mistress of the Fox family was so shocked that she didn't know what to do, but Yunmian felt a bit uneasy under her gaze and couldn't help but speak up: "Fox Mistress..."
The Fox Lady's expression finally changed, and her previous puzzlement about why her son would choose Yunmian as his wife dissipated. The Fox Lady's face showed a hint of joy, and she said warmly: "But you were scared, weren't you? I heard that your school has already started classes recently, and you've just begun to cultivate... do you still feel like getting used to it?"
"It's a habit."
Yunmian quickly replied.
"Speaking of which..."
The lady of the house paused for a moment. "I heard that you have never actually seen the young master until now, is this true?"
Yunmian was taken aback, and upon hearing Hu Zhuren's straightforward question, a faint blush appeared on her pale face. She nodded slightly, looking embarrassed, and replied, "Mmm."
The mistress of the fox host sighed in her heart, shook her head helplessly, and said straightforwardly that the young man's thoughts were indeed changeable and unpredictable. Ting Er's grades were always top-notch, but he didn't know how to talk about love at all. He had only seen a few times and chose this little white fox as his fiancée, it can be seen that he was deeply in love at first sight, but unfortunately, he never let the other party see himself... Instead, he made the girl's family frightened and confused, how could this be possible?
The mistress of the fox host didn't think much, just thinking that Wen Ting was inexperienced in love, and for the first time, she felt a bit shy. She liked her daughter's temperament, looking at Yunmian's appearance,
Reminder from netizen: Please pay attention to your eyes' rest for a long time.
This is a beautiful separator line
She was probably brought by the fox official with little mental preparation, panicked and her heart unconsciously softened.
"Actually, the matter of choosing a new master and mistress didn't have to be so rushed. You two still had some time to spend together... It's just that Ting Er's tribulation is imminent, so we hurried things along. Originally, when we decided on a candidate, we should have reported it to the heavens and held a grand ceremony, but with his tribulation happening in just two days, I'm afraid there won't be enough time. I'm really sorry to put you through this... I called you here today not only to meet you, but also to give you this."
As she spoke, Lady Hu took out a jade pendant that had been prepared long ago from her sleeve and placed it in Yunmian's hand.
Yunmian was actually unclear about the situation and hastily took it over in a daze.
The gentle lady said, "The training methods of Qingqiu are all chosen by the Heavenly Way, and have been explored and obtained by generations of divine foxes. We do not intend to change them, so for now, we cannot accept you into the palace to live. The formal engagement ceremony will have to wait until the young master returns, that's why this is a token of faith for you to enter the Fox Palace, if you need to come and go from the Fox Palace, you can also use it, take it."
Yunmian certainly knew it was an important thing, so he hastily nodded and solemnly put it away.
At this time, only heard the hostess of the fox ask her: "Speaking of which...the day when he descended to suffer tribulations is not far away, it's rare today, can you see the young master?"
Yunmian was taken aback and subconsciously asked: "Is it okay?"
Yunmian asked, and immediately felt a bit embarrassed.
"Of course it is."
The lady of the fox host smiled elegantly and slowly got up, saying: "Follow me."
Yunmian heard this and immediately got up, following Mrs. Hu Zhuren in a fluster along the way.
The lady of the fox spirit walked quickly until she slowed down when she reached another palace. There were many houses in the palace, and she entered one that seemed to be a study. Yunmeng had never seen such a scene before, and he was amazed at the sight of the books filling the room. However, at this time, the lady of the fox spirit stopped in front of one of the doors.
Strictly speaking, it is not a solid door, but a partition between the inner and outer rooms, with two layers of gauze curtains and bead curtains separating both sides.
Yunmian was still a bit dizzy at this time. She was chosen as the young master's wife with a sense of being honored, but didn't know what specific duties this position entailed, only knowing that it could only be held by a woman, and seemingly in the future would involve reading together with the young master, and also marrying him, with their relationship being even more intimate than usual.
So walking here, Yunmian is both bewildered and somewhat nervous.
The mistress of the fox host hesitated at the door, but did not rush in directly. Instead, she knocked on the wooden frame by the screen and called out: "Ting Er."
A figure flashed behind the mosquito net, seemingly a young man. Yunmian unconsciously tiptoed and curiously looked inside through the beaded curtain.
Wen Ting was reviewing Mr. Gong's lessons in the study, and also making some preparations for the upcoming event, when he heard his mother's voice outside the door, and subconsciously lifted his head, only to find that the first thing he saw was not Mrs. Hu but a curious girl peeking inside.
Wen Ting was taken aback for a moment. Although she knew that the other person couldn't see her clearly through the curtain, her face still flushed instantly, and she involuntarily turned her head away.
Yun mian zai wai tan lai tan qu kan bu qing chu, bu mian xie qi.
English Translation:
The cloud is outside, looking around but can't see clearly, and can't help but feel disappointed.
Wen Ting was able to see clearly, he was born with nine tails and his cultivation was serious, just one glance and he saw the appearance of Yun Mian.
He had never clearly seen Yunmian's appearance before, let alone in human form. But thinking about what today was and that his mother had suddenly brought another unfamiliar girl to see him, how could Wen Ting not guess what was going on? Although he hadn't meant it back then, thinking that she was the wife he had chosen for himself, Wen Ting still felt flustered and didn't dare look at her again, hastily shifting his gaze away.
Wen Ting remained calm and composed behind the silk curtain, taking a long time before responding in a gentle voice: "Mother..."
Hearing a sound from inside, Yunmian immediately perked up his ears and continued to curiously look inside.
The mistress of the fox said: "I brought Meng'er to see you, are you willing to come out and talk?"
Wen Ting only felt that outside the curtain, there was a clean and straightforward gaze belonging to a girl burning on his face. He was flustered and didn't dare look out. But as soon as he heard they wanted to see him, Wen Ting panicked and hastily said: "F-fine...".
Yunmian listened carefully to every word coming from inside the house, and when she heard that her young master was unwilling to come out and see her, she was taken aback.
