The three Supreme Elders couldn't force it, so they had to give up temporarily.
Qi Ying did not follow them immediately, but directly escaped and went to another place in Qijiapu.
In a quiet courtyard in Qijiapu that was not remote but not close to the center, Qi Ying saw a haggard woman who seemed a little out of place with the magnificent Qi family. She was already middle-aged, and the wrinkles on her face said The vicissitudes she has experienced over the years, and her vaguely identifiable appearance can still remind Qiying who she is.
The mother in this world is Rong Zhi.
Compared with his father in this life, his mother is even more vague in Qi Ying's memory. Unlike Qi Dongming who prefers this "mature" son, Rong Zhi loves his children equally, even more so than "Qi Ying" who has not been around for a long time. "He is fierce", and she loves and pities other children even more.
In Qi Ying's limited memory, very few people could detect Rong Zhi's concern.
But I can still think of the clothes I wore when I was practicing since I was a child. All the clothes I wore were made by my mother and sent to the back mountain by servants. From the small clothes and tiger-head shoes I wore when I was three years old, to the clothes I wore when I was ten years old, The gown she wore when she was two years old was all cut and sewn by her, stitch by stitch.
Qi Ying's arrival was not completely silent.
The even breathing still disturbed Rong Zhi who was watering the flowers. She turned around suddenly and saw a tall young man in black robe standing behind him. She was a little at a loss for a moment. However, after this brief shock, she revealed that He couldn't hide his joy: "Lie'er... you're back..."
After not seeing each other for many years, she could still recognize her child at a glance.
Qi Ying was a little embarrassed for a moment. Even when he was in the main world, he had never been able to talk to the person called "mother". Moreover, compared with Qi Dongming, who was not serious at all, this dignified and loving mother was too much. It was so difficult to deal with that people could only stand there dumbly, hesitating and unable to speak.
If other people saw his embarrassment, they would definitely laugh at him—the most powerful master in the world, the Holy Master of the Mysterious Light Realm, could not even say a word in front of a mortal.
Rong Zhi did not lose his composure because of Qi Ying's embarrassment, but walked up to him naturally and tidied Qi Ying's robe with some pity: "Lie'er, you have been outside all these years and have no time to tidy up. Clothes, this outfit is too rough, there isn’t even a pattern on it... Come in and change your clothes."
Qi Ying followed her into the room.
Just like the quiet and elegant outside, Rong Zhi's room also reveals the diligence and neatness of the owner. The furniture is not too luxurious, but it is spotless.
Rong Zhi asked Qi Ying to sit on the chair first, and then went to the back room to rummage for a while. When he came out, he held a thick pile of clothes in his hands: "Mom, I have been thinking that you must have grown up over the years, but I don't know. Whatever your figure is, I made these clothes for you, thinking that when you come back, you will have clothes that fit you. Those clothes made by outsiders may be beautiful, but they are not as close-fitting and comfortable as those cut by us."
Qi Ying looked at the pile of clothes, her nose felt a little sore.
The maternal love that he had not felt since he was a teenager was infected here.
No matter how much Yu Ma regards herself as her own child, she is not her biological mother after all. She has more than enough teaching but a little lack of care. In comparison, although Rong Zhi has never had any communication with her, these clothes embody great maternal love. But it is enough to show how much she values herself in her heart.
She is not a profound cultivator, just an ordinary mortal.
These clothes are made of tough fabrics, which are a bit difficult for tailors to cut. If she wants to make a dress, she must put in more sweat and hard work. She doesn’t know how many people are needed. day and night. And there are at least more than 20 pieces of clothes in this thick pile. How do you know how many days it took her to make it
Qi Ying glanced at Rong Zhi's hands from the corner of her eye, and her eyes became moist. The hands of the maids of the Qi family were all smooth and smooth, but Rong Zhi's hands had some calluses and scars. When she thought about it, she knew that she used the needles and threads of those cultivators. With the fabric, she would inevitably hurt herself sometimes. She didn't know how much blood she had spent on these clothes.
"You compare them one by one and try them on. Whichever one fits you, wear that one. If there is none, I will measure and make another set for you. There is cut fabric in the house, so it can be made quickly. "
Rong Zhi said lovingly.
Qi Ying immediately took the clothes from her hand and tried them on one by one.
However, perhaps Rong Zhi really didn't expect Qi Ying to grow so fast in these years. His stature was far higher than that of Qi Dongming and his brothers, and he was taller and burlier, so none of these clothes fit him.
Qi Ying originally wanted to use magic power to stretch one of the clothes a little, so that it would be enough to wear, but Rong Zhi put all the clothes away: "Sure enough, I didn't think about it. I didn't expect Lie'er to be so tall and handsome. These clothes cannot be worn.”
"Mother..." Qi Ying was a little stuck when he said this word. He was not used to saying this word. After a short pause, he continued, "It's okay. I'll take one and use a little magic power. It can become a perfect fit.”
Rong Zhi said: "The clothes made by mana are not as good as those sewn by hand. They are all imaginary. Sometimes if you don't care, they start to deform and shrink. It's better for me to make a good set of clothes! Your elder brother gave some as a gift a few days ago. Here comes the good satin, just in time for use.”
then.
Qi Ying then entered the room and watched Rong Zhi get busy.
This woman, whom he had never observed carefully, now looked extraordinarily beautiful in Qi Ying's eyes. Whether it was her movements of cutting silk or the meticulousness with which she took the needle and thread, it seemed that her whole body exuded a different kind of brilliance. Her demeanor and beauty, It is completely incomparable to those beauties flaunting their beauty in flower houses.
"How have you been, mom, these past few years?"
Qi Ying couldn't find anything to say.
Rong Zhi was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Okay, how can it be bad? After your father who likes prostitution and gambling is gone, my life is really good."
“…”
Qi Ying smiled bitterly, Qi Dongming, Qi Dongming, how did you get such great luck to marry such a good wife
While Rong Zhi was talking about Qi Dongming, her sadness and vicissitudes could still be discerned in his brows: "It's just that without him, life is really lonely. Your brothers and sisters have already started families or married far away. Now, my brother and sister, who are younger than you, have been sent to a sect in the outer city to practice. I have lived here alone for more than three years. I just can’t stand the leisure and have nothing to do, so I will do it for you every day. clothing… "
