Rebirth of the Starry Night Sky
"Come, baby, you can grab whatever you like!" Yun Xi said, holding Yun Qingran who was dressed in a bright red outfit, and arrived at the blanket covered with square red cloth, pointing to the things placed on it.
No, our little cloud friend is just one year old today, and this is the "grabbing ceremony" held by her family. The Cloud family follows ancient rituals, and the objects used for grabbing are specially made and passed down from ancestors. This time, Old Master Cloud has also added a blunt embroidery needle, an unopened engraving knife, and a silver needle box that has been passed down through generations, but it was given to the head of the household, not for grabbing, because the Cloud family is known for its medical skills.
Yun Qingran had already learned to walk a long time ago, and her training had made her bones develop much faster than ordinary children. However, she could only manage to walk unsteadily now, and from time to time, she would accidentally trip and fall.
She stared at the things on the table, hesitating to make a move, thinking about whether to be low-key or high-profile. She definitely wanted to grab some, but how to do it was the problem. She wanted to grab more, but even though most of the things were miniatures prepared for kids' birthday parties, they weren't something her small hands could grasp. And she couldn't use her spiritual power to lift them up either, fearing that would scare her family.
The old and young of the Yun family gathered around, thinking that something had happened, as they watched Yun Qingran remain still for so long.
"Little darling, why aren't you holding on? Are you feeling unwell at times?" Cloud Old Lady walked up and asked with concern, while carefully looking at Cloud Light's face for any abnormalities.
Yun Lao Ye also followed and came up, but didn't say a word, quietly taking Yun Qing Ran's pulse.
The others in the cloud house looked at him with worried faces, but they didn't dare to speak because they were afraid of disturbing Old Master Yun's pulse diagnosis.
Yun was taken aback by everyone's reaction at first, but soon became moved. This was because everyone cared about her so much that they would react this way.
"Grandma, I'm fine, I was just thinking about what I want to catch." Yun's soft and gentle childish voice rang out, explaining to everyone.
Everyone heard this and immediately felt relieved.
"Take your time, baby." Old Lady Yun stepped back a step, looking at Yun Qingran.
She didn't think twice, and directly walked towards the things laid out, amidst everyone's shocked expressions. She picked up the rouge box and threw it away; the accessories, thrown away; the toys... Yun Qingran walked by, picking up things and throwing them to both sides until only a few items were left on the red cloth. She looked at the remaining items with satisfaction: a silver needle case, a needle, an engraving knife, a brush pen, a book, a Xiao, and a delicate small knife. Then she pulled up the four corners of the red cloth one by one and dragged it to Old Master Yun's face.
"Grandpa, I've made up my mind." Yun Qingran smiled sweetly and waved the red cloth in her hand at Old Master Yun.
Yun Lao Ye Zi was only surprised at the beginning, but instantly calmed down, and later always looked calmly, after all, his own granddaughter was very different, he was the one who felt it most deeply.
"Little one, why did you choose these things?"
"Why can't I have so many since I like them all?" Yun Qingran raised her innocent smile and asked back.
"Of course." Cloud Old Master picked up Cloud Light, "Are you hungry? Let's go eat. Today there is longevity noodles specially made by your grandma for you."
Yun Lao Ye Zi carried Yun Qing Ran to the table and placed her in a special seat made just for her.
From the time she could hold her own spoon, she was no longer willing to sit in an adult's arms and be fed. She had Chen Cheng make a small stool that just reached the dinner table and put it on a chair next to Grandpa Yun's seat. Later when she learned to walk, she rarely let people carry her and walked by herself.
"Tomorrow we'll go to Qing Shui Town together and take a look. I've asked Ah Zhuo to buy a house there, everyone can go and see which one they like to live in, think about what furniture to make." After finishing dinner, Old Master Yun dropped a bombshell, leaving everyone stunned.
Yun Qingran also looked up at Old Man Yun, she thought that Old Man Yun had forgotten or wasn't planning to buy it and wanted to wait until after the New Year to ask again. She didn't expect Old Man Yun to have bought it so quickly, giving her a huge surprise.
At home, only Yun Qingran, Yun Xiangyan and Chen Chen knew about buying a house. Although the Yun family's daily life was not bad, they still couldn't afford to buy a big house that could accommodate everyone.
Yun old lady looked at Yun old man silently asking, her eyes full of worry. She was clear about how much money they had in the family and also understood that even if their eldest son and Chen Chen took out their own money, they wouldn't have this much.
"Isn't this because Little Cui took out that ceramic plate last time?" Cloud Old Master looked at the worry in Cloud Old Mistress's eyes and explained: "Later, when we were in the study, Little Cui told me that it was given to her by her master, who had sold it to buy a bigger house. He didn't like to see people, so he asked us to give Little Cui a separate courtyard, where he would teach her."
Everyone's heart was clear, and Old Lady Yun also put down her worries. Although she didn't understand the appreciation of antiques, through osmosis, she more or less knew that the plate was valuable, and selling it would be enough to buy such a mansion.
After everyone understood, Old Man Yun took Cloud Lightly to the study room. He still had things he wanted to ask privately and it wasn't convenient here.
"Good girl, this time buying a house only cost less than a quarter of the money, and there's still a lot left. Go ask your master how to give him the remaining money." Since last time Yun Qingran handed the porcelain plate to Old Man Yun, he no longer treated her as an ordinary child, knowing that she could understand adult conversations. Being able to worship such a person as a master, how could she be an ordinary child?
"Master said last night that the money will be given to us, and let Mom and Uncle do business with it, because I'll need a lot of money in the future. He'll give me a simple plan book for Mom tomorrow." Yun Qingran sat on her own special little chair, which was made by Chen Chen for her, just right for her to reach the table.
"Has your master come yesterday?" Looks like it's really formidable. Able to quietly enter the house without being discovered by anyone.
"Yes, Master also took me out for a flight and taught me to cultivate internal energy." Yun Qingran's eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Fly? How can you fly?" Old Man Yun still thought it was just jumping on the eaves.
"It's like a bird, suddenly flying from the rooftop to that forest over there." Yun Qingran said as she gestured.
Yun Lao Yezi was even more shocked to hear this, it seemed that Yun Qingran's master was more formidable than he had imagined. Originally, he thought the visitor's light body skill was good, but only able to jump on the eaves of houses, but unexpectedly reached the realm of treading snow without leaving a trace. Are there still such figures in the current martial arts world?
