Jiang Xichen bit into a candied haws and began to chew it with relish.

"Mother doesn't know, so Brother Ye, you have to keep it a secret for me. Otherwise, mother will be unhappy and will beat Xichen again."

Ye Qian'an nodded and smiled.

He took the wine jar from Jiang Xichen's arms and poured her a jar of wine, saying, "Can you carry it? If not, I'll send it back to you."

"Okay, okay~"

Jiang Xichen nodded, with a smile on his face: "Mother said that the guest invited tonight is Brother Ye."

"invite me?"

"Yes, big brother, your wine is delicious. After drinking your wine, my father and mother's old illnesses have been cured, and they look a lot younger. So my mother specially asked me to invite you to have a meal at home."

Ye Qian'an squatted down, pinched Jiang Xichen's face and said, "So, I bought myself some wine with my own money?"

"Oh~" Jiang Xichen slapped Ye Qian'an's big hand away and replied weakly: "I'm buying candied haws, Brother Ye, if you want to eat some... Xichen will leave you... two... one, okay?"

Jiang Xichen gestured with his fingers.

Ye Qian'an smiled and said, "Forget it. Brother doesn't like to eat candied haws. Xiao Xichen, eat more. You will definitely be a beautiful girl in the future."

"Yes, mother said that Xichen will definitely be a beautiful girl in the future, and asked me to go to a nearby sect to cultivate immortality and seek the truth."

Ye Qian'an looked at Jiang Xichen in front of him, and at the same time a blue light flashed before his eyes. Jiang Xichen's spiritual roots quietly appeared in Ye Qian'an's eyes.

The other party's spiritual root is water spiritual root. Although it is just an ordinary spiritual root, it also has the ability to become an immortal.

In the future, he should be able to reach the Jindan realm. If the opportunity is sufficient, he may even be able to reach the Yuanying or Huashen realm.

After thinking for a while, Ye Qian'an took out a string of amulets from his pocket, hung it around Jiang Xichen's neck and said, "Don't lose this amulet, it will keep you safe."

After closing the shop door, Ye Qian'an took Jiang Xichen back to her home.

Jiang Xichen's family is in the cloth business. Although they are not wealthy, it is enough for their family's three meals a day.

Inside the shop, there was a square table with a few home-cooked side dishes on it. Even though Ye Qian'an had been fasting, he still picked up his chopsticks and took a few bites.

Jiang Xichen's parents are both honest businessmen. Due to years of work, they are weak and sickly. Fortunately, Ye Qian'an's wine can cure their stubborn illnesses, so they are so grateful to Ye Qian'an.

Ye Qian'an shrugged his shoulders, raised his head, looked at the people in front of him, picked up the wine glass, and started chatting with them.

Jiang Xichen rubbed her belly, looked at the dishes in front of her, and pursed her lips. Perhaps because she had eaten the candied haws, she was not hungry now.

Since that day, Ye Qian'an had a new neighbor in his life. Every now and then, Ye Qian'an would go to Jiang Xichen's house to taste the delicious food, and the other party was also quite welcoming to Ye Qian'an.

Life is like a bowl of clear water, plain and simple with a hint of sweetness. Ye Qian'an feels a sense of spiritual cleansing about this kind of life without killing.

The neighbors of the surrounding shops gradually learned that the shop had a new owner, and they all had a favorable impression of Ye Qian'an, a young man who was quiet but also had a touch of elegance.

Ye Qian'an also sent his fine wine to every household. After they drank it, they kept coming back for more, some even saying that it was the best wine they had ever tasted in their lives.

A year passed in a flash, and Jiang Xichen had obviously grown up. Every day, he would come to the shop with candied haws and ask Ye Qi'an how to brew such delicious wine. Ye Qi'an was also unreserved and told Jiang Xichen how to brew it. The latter also took it seriously and wrote it down in a small notebook every time, and started brewing it after returning home.

For some reason, the wine brewed by Jiang Xichen follows the same steps as Ye Qian'an, but the taste of the two is worlds apart.

Jiang Xichen sat on Ye Qian'an's lap, eating a candied haws and said, "Brother Ye, the immortals from Qingyun Sect came down the mountain not long ago. They came to the city to recruit disciples. Mother and father introduced them to me. They said they will come tonight. Can you go over and help me check them out?"

Ye Qian'an rubbed Jiang Xichen's face and said, "This is the business of immortals. I am just an ordinary person. There is no point in me going there."

"Oh, with Brother Ye here, at least he can say a few words for me, unlike my parents who just keep praising the immortal."

Jiang Xichen pouted and said.

"And I don't want to leave home. Becoming an immortal is indeed very cool, but it is said that after becoming an immortal, you need to forget the mortal world, and the days of coming back will become less and less. By then, I won't be able to see Brother Ye anymore."

"This is what immortals are supposed to do. Forget about the mundane world and comprehend the way of heaven. This is what you should do. However, you should do it within your ability. In fact, being an ordinary person is not bad either."

Ye Qian'an rubbed Jiang Xichen's head and said with a smile.

"No, I want to become an immortal, then my mother and father will be able to live a good life. Then I will build a bigger house for Brother Ye, and there will be lots of candied haws to eat."

Hearing this, Ye Qian'an shook his head helplessly, but still agreed. He picked up the wine gourd on the table and took a sip.

"Brother Ye, there is one more thing I want to ask you."

"You said."

"Why does the wine I brew taste so different from yours, brother?"

Ye Qian'an smiled and said, "Winemaking and immortal cultivation are the same. In addition to immortals, there is also a kind of winemaker in this world. Although they are not immortals, they make wine for the immortals to seek fate."

"So, brother has also brewed wine for immortals?" Jiang Xichen blinked his watery eyes and asked softly.

"Uh..." Ye Qian'an didn't know how to answer, but he still smiled and said, "Maybe in the future."

"Xichen must buy out all the wine in brother's house from now on. In this way, brother Ye Qian'an can have a good rest."

Ye Qian'an nodded and smiled.

Then he explained to her the key steps in making wine. Every step and every herb needed to be controlled. If there was too much of any other herb, the taste would change drastically.

Jiang Xichen nodded and listened attentively.

It was not until the sun set that the two returned to the tailor shop, ready to welcome the immortal from Qingyun Sect.

Jiang Xichen's father and mother had prepared the meal early, but they did not sit at the table. This was specially prepared for the immortals, and each dish was very costly.

They have no blessing to enjoy.

After all, if it can allow his daughter to join Qingyun Sect, this little money will be worth it. (End of this chapter)
