When I became a Jade-faced Fox

Yu'er wrinkled her nose, fanned her nose with her hands, and pouted. "What a strong smell of incense."

"Because today is the second day of the second month, the day when the dragon raises its head, sacrifices are being held in Suzhou and Hangzhou, so the smell of incense is everywhere." Seeing that they had arrived home, the Fox King felt a lot more relaxed.

"Besides, you never know. If you take a walk for a while, you might even run into your brothers and sisters. Mom will take you out to play for a while, okay? We can go back to our clan home in the evening when there are fewer people around." The lady also wanted to take Yu'er to relax.

Yu'er originally thought that the second day of the second lunar month was just so-so, but she didn't want to spoil her mother's mood, so she nodded and agreed. Who would have thought that her father would suddenly lift her above his head and let Yu'er sit on his shoulders. Although Yu'er didn't say anything, she couldn't hide the smile on her lips and eyes.

"Let's go! Daddy and mommy are taking you out to play!"

The streets are full of people coming and going. Street vendors are trying to attract customers. Some are waving their hands, some are shouting, and some are busy with their heads down. There are all kinds of people.

Yu'er saw a stall with rattles on it. The stall owner was holding one in his hand and moving it constantly. The sound it made hit Yu'er's ears, and Yu'er couldn't help but want to look over there.

"If you want it, just tell me. I'm not refusing to buy it for you." Madam took a rattle and stuffed it into Yu'er's hand. "You're just a kid, why should you be embarrassed if you want a rattle?"

Yu'er was already shy, as she always felt that she was an adult. But when she heard her mother say this, not only did her face feel a little hot, but her ears also turned red.

"Don't we have no money? I mean, we don't have human money." Yu'er said in a low voice.

"Who told you that we have no money? I didn't say that, your father did." The lady immediately denied it and suspected the Fox King.

"I asked Qingyu and Li Nu to exchange money when I took you out to play just now. Don't worry and have fun." The Fox King shook Yu'er to let her sit steadily, and continued to happily take them around the market.

It seems that the sun is approaching noon.

"Are you hungry? Dad smells some barbecue over there. Let's go and try some. You and your mother haven't had a good meal these days due to the long journey and sleeping in the open air." The Fox King asked Yu'er, but his eyes were on his wife.

"Okay, Dad, put me down, and let's go together. There are not many people here now." Yu'er hugged the Fox King's head.

When I came to the store, I saw that the couple who owned the store did not look like Han Chinese, with high nose bridges, deep eye sockets, and slightly gray hair. Although they wore the same clothes, their accents were still very obvious when they spoke.

According to the store owner, this food is a specialty of their tribe, called Qiang cooking. It is to dip the cooked venison into a sauce made of various seasonings. For economic reasons, they use chicken as well as venison.

The taste is excellent, but the price is really expensive. The Wei and Jin Dynasties were a period of rare wars, but the food culture was highly developed. The nobles and officials were extravagant, but the common people could not get enough food.

When the sun was setting, Yu'er went outside the city and found the desolate scene of the nearby villages. She couldn't bear it, so she closed her eyes and buried her head in her wife's arms.

Seeing that there was no one around, the Fox King made some hand gestures and muttered something. Then, where the moonlight fell, a door emitting soft light appeared.

"Shao'er, take Yu'er and go in quickly." This door requires both moonlight and magic power to maintain, and the Fox King urged him.

After the family entered, the Fox King was about to retract his magic power when he heard a clear male voice behind him, which smelled of alcohol on the wind.

"Which brother or sister is that in front? Wait for me, wait for me."

The Fox King saw a thin man in scarlet clothes and a silver crown rushing towards him. His clothes were a little disheveled and his crown was about to fall off.

"Thank you, thank you." He kept thanking people before he even saw them. When he bowed his head to thank them, his hand was still supporting his crown.

"Hong Rui?"

"Third aunt?"

When the lady saw that this was her eldest brother's child, she smelled not only alcohol but also rouge on him, so she slapped him on the back.

"Ouch! Aunt, please be gentle."

"You are still young and don't learn your lesson. Where have you been? You reek of alcohol and..."

As soon as the photo was taken, the man started to scream. The lady wanted to scold him, but she saw her daughter listening attentively and watching the fun. She was too embarrassed to scold Hong Rui for fooling around, for fear that he would teach Yu Er bad habits.

The Fox King looked at Hong Rui and just shook his head helplessly. He motioned Hong Rui to open his mouth and flicked a hangover pill into his hand.

Foxes are one of the most spiritual creatures among all living things. They understand human nature and love at an early age. Except for the foxes who find a partner early on to spend their lives together, most others cannot escape the mortal world.

But how could it be so easy to get through this world! Ordinary foxes did not have any cultivation techniques, and would often seduce young men and women, suck their essence, or even worse, kill people, which was against the harmony of nature.

Hong Rui's situation is different. Although he is a male fox, he is born with a charming character, charming but not evil. If he can practice well, his future is limitless. But the practice of this charming fox is not only about the technique, but more importantly, it is necessary to understand emotions and feelings, but not indulge in love. Therefore, Hong Rui's emotional tribulation is much more serious than that of ordinary foxes, but once it is overcome, Tushan clan can wait for another ancestor to grow up.

"Today is the second day of the second lunar month, so I went out for a walk. This is my little cousin! She is so small!"

Hong Rui was originally talking to the lady with a playful smile, but when he lowered his head, he saw the little girl in the lady's hand.

"Little sister, I'm your brother Rui!" Hong Rui squatted down and talked to Yu'er. While talking, he was touching her body. Seeing Yu'er yawning slightly, he suddenly slapped his head in annoyance.

"My bad, my bad, aunt, uncle, let's go, let's go back now, I'm sleepy. I've prepared your gift a long time ago, but I don't have it with me today. Can I send it to you tomorrow?"

Yu'er nodded. The lady picked her up and they returned to their own residence.

On the hillside of a not very high hill, there is a three-story bamboo building. The downstairs is empty. The first floor is the room of Li Nu and Qing Yu, and the second floor is the room of the Fox King and his family of three. In the open space in front of the door, there are large patches of red peonies, as warm as fire. A path passes through the peonies, dividing them into two. A stream winds around the hill and passes by Yu Er's house when it passes halfway up the hill.

"Aunt, uncle, you should go to bed early. I will go back and tell my parents that you have brought my little sister back. We can talk about it tomorrow. My little sister is so sleepy that she can't open her eyes."

Yu'er was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, and her little head was moving up and down in the air.

"Okay, Rui'er. Tell your parents that we will visit tomorrow."

"Okay, see you then." Hong Rui made an operatic gesture of waving sleeves, indicating that he was leaving.
