447. There Is No Next Time (1)

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

Early the next morning, Aunt Xian who had foretold the auspicious day came to Yin Jinye’s study. Seeing Rong Yi was holding Yin Jinye’s neck from behind, she said with a hearty smile, “Ye’er, Yi, I picked another auspicious day for the two of you. It’s lunar January 1st. What do you say?”

The cultivators in the immortal world had no Spring Festival, so they could invite their relatives and friends over that day to have a gathering, so Rong Yi nodded to agree, “OK, I can invite Qi Yueshi and others over.”

But thinking that there were still four month, Yin Jinye slightly knitted his brows, “Isn’t there any auspicious day recently?”

Aunt Xian shook her head, “No, the first day of the lunar January is a good day other days are not that good, but, if you can’t wait, there’s a suitable day for marriage the next month, but your wedding robes even haven’t been prepared, and a lot of other things. So, the schedule might be a little tight.”

“The first day of lunar January it is then.”

Aunt Xian took out a pile of drawings, “This is the drawings of the wedding robes, you pick a design you like, and I give you the measurement to make them tailored.”

Last time, the embroidery lady got killed by Qi Lan, this time, she wouldn’t ask one to come to the mansion, but she took the design and measurement to get them tailored.

The drawings were very detailed, not only the patterns of the robes, but also the style and color.

With only a glimpse, Rong Yi was attracted by the dark purple robes embroidered with gold thread, not too bright, and looking quite noble, very suitable for Yin Jinye, “This one is good. I like it. Jinye, what about you?”

Yin Jinye didn’t like too shiny red, so he was particularly satisfied with the one Rong Yi picked, “OK, this one it is.”

Aunt Xian then put the drawings away and said with a smile, “I’ll get it tailored now.”

Yin Jinye said, “Take some guards with you.”

“Got it.”

As Aunt Xian just got out of the yard, she saw Min Pinyou who was also going out.

“Master You, are you going out so early?”

“Yes, I’m going to buy some herbs.” Min Pinyou smiled and went up to her, “Aunt Xian, where are you going?”

Aunt Xian smiled, “Go and prepare the wedding robes for your two cousins.”

Talking and laughing, soon the two of them went out of the mansion.

Aunt Xian pointed to the left side of the street, “Master You, I’ll go this side, so I’m afraid I can’t accompany you then.”

“OK.” Min Pinyou then turned to the right. Suddenly, someone bumped into him and pushed him into the side alley.

After taking a few steps, Aunt Xian remembered that Min Pinyou didn’t take guards with him, so she turned to ask him to take two guards with him, but the other side was already nowhere to be seen.

She turned around and smiled. “Young people really walk fast.”

Then took the guards to go to the embroidery shop.

About half an hour later, Min Pinyou went back. When seeing a few children playing in the courtyard, he looked sluggish for a moment.

“You, what are you doing here?” Min Pinjie came over and asked, “Didn’t you say you are going to buy some herbs? Why are you back so soon?”

Her words dragged Min Pinyou back to hi sense, “I already bought them. Well, I’m going back to refine elixirs.”

“Hmm, I hope you can make some good ones this time.” Min Pinjie went to accompany the old lord and others.

As soon as she left, Min Pinyou, who had gone far away, came back again and stood in the corridor watching the children playing. He walked to them with a look of hesitation.

“Uncle…” The children gave him a big smile.

Min Pinyou took out five small toys to give them, Yin Tao a kite, Yao’er a bamboo dragonfly, Yin Sensen a rattle-drum, Jiang Mu a top, and the little monk a small wooden fish

He asked, “I just bought them in the streets. Do you like it?”

All five children nodded. “Yes.”

Min Pinyu rubbed their heads, “Go and play.”

Jiang Mu took a look at his top, it was engraved with some small strange patterns, also on the whip, one wouldn’t even notice if not looking closely, “Uncle, what patterns are these?”

Min Pinyou’s eyes glowed, “In order to make the top look better, the peddler selling the tops specially painted some strange patterns on it so it doesn’t look as single as others, just like some peddlers would like to paint some color on their tops.”

“Oh.” Jiang Mu then threw the top onto the ground, ready to whip it.

The little monk on the side said, “Brother Mu, I also want to play the top.”

Min Pinyou hurriedly said, “This top is for Jiang Mu to play. Aren’t you a monk? You are fit to play with your wooden fish”

The little monk looked at him and said nothing.

Jiang Mu then handed it to the little monk and said, “Let him play first. I’ll play later.”

Min Pinyou’s face sank.
