Chapter 78 Rewards

“Little Jing’er, don’t run, stand there and wait for your aunt to come up.”

Huangfu Yue was afraid Huangfu Jing would fall if she ran too fast, and even more afraid she was heading for the stairs. If she fell down the stairs, tumbling all the way down would be terrible, so she quickly called out.

Before she finished speaking, she leaped forward with her two nieces in her arms. The next moment, she soared over four meters high from the ground to the second floor, instantly arriving in front of Huangfu Jing.

Everyone watching was dumbfounded, their faces filled with shock.

“Such exquisite Qinggong! It’s like she can fly!” someone exclaimed.

“We knew the eldest miss was highly skilled in martial arts, reaching a realm of divine proficiency, but I never expected her Qinggong to be this formidable!”

“The eldest miss is truly a celestial being!”

“I really want to learn martial arts from the eldest miss!”

Huangfu Yue listened to the gasps and murmurs of the servants below, a subtle smile forming on her lips.

Hearing someone express a desire to learn martial arts from her reminded her that once they settled down in Lingping and no longer had to travel daily, she could teach everyone in the manor to practice martial arts. Both masters and servants would be taught.

This would allow them to strengthen their bodies and protect themselves, relieving her of the burden of always needing to protect them, which would make things much easier for her.

Protecting so many people was quite tiring!

“Little aunt, are you a fairy from the heavens?! You can actually fly!” Huangfu Jing stared at Huangfu Yue with wide eyes, her face full of wonder.

Huangfu Yue chuckled, amused by her eldest niece.

“Little Jing’er, you are so adorable!” Huangfu Yue bent down, reaching out to lift Huangfu Jing by her little bottom, holding her and planting a kiss on her bright, clear little face.

“Little aunt, you’re so strong, you can hold two people with one hand!” Huangfu Ying, who had been in Huangfu Yue’s other arm and had gaped in amazement as Huangfu Yue flew up with her and her cousin, now widened her mouth again and cried out, “Wow!”

“Little aunt is amazing, she’s a strongwoman!” Huangfu Ling, seated on Huangfu Yue’s other arm, clapped her hands and exclaimed.

Huangfu Yue looked at her nieces, her eyes curved into crescent moons. What a bunch of adorable little girls… *Hmph*, he…

Huangfu Yue suddenly noticed Huangfu Xuan a few steps away, being held by his mother and running to catch up with his sister. Seeing her fly up to stop his sister from running, pick up his sister, he stopped, looking at her and his sisters with an envious expression.

Her beautiful eyes flickered. Huangfu Yue, holding the three little girls, walked over to Huangfu Xuan, her expression full of affection, and asked with a smile, “Xuan’er, do you also want your little aunt to hug you and kiss you?”

Huangfu Xuan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. “I’m not like these little girls, needing hugs and kisses from little aunt! I’m a little man, I don’t want hugs and kisses!”

Well, he’s got a strong mouth! This boy is quite cute too!

Huangfu Yue’s smile deepened. She bent down towards Huangfu Xuan, extending her free hand and placing it behind his bottom, lifting him up.

For others, holding four children would be extremely difficult, too heavy. But for her, it was as easy as picking up a pair of chopsticks, effortless.

“Ah! Little aunt, what are you doing? Put me down quickly!” Huangfu Xuan, suddenly lifted, was somewhat panicked. He waved his little hands and shouted.

Huangfu Yue ignored her little nephew and kissed his face.

“Little aunt, why are you kissing me!” Huangfu Xuan’s little face flushed red. He shyly reached up to cover the cheek she had kissed.

“You don’t like it when little aunt kisses you? Little aunt is so sad!” Huangfu Yue feigned a sad expression.

“No! I don’t dislike it, little aunt, don’t be sad!” Huangfu Xuan’s expression became anxious. He quickly waved his hands and shouted.

“Then kiss little aunt!” Huangfu Yue curved her lips and brought her cheek closer to Huangfu Xuan’s mouth.

Huangfu Xuan showed a shy expression. “I… I’m a boy, and you’re a girl. How can I kiss my little aunt!”

“Little fellow, how old are you that you’re already talking about the distinction between men and women!” Huangfu Yue burst into laughter, amused by him.

“Brother won’t kiss little aunt, I will!” Huangfu Jing declared, enthusiastically leaning forward and planting a big kiss on Huangfu Yue’s cheek.

“Little Jing’er is so good! A good child!” Huangfu Yue’s lips curved to their deepest. “You four siblings are all good children. Little aunt wants to give you a reward!”

“What reward?” All four little ones showed curious and expectant expressions.

“Guess!” Huangfu Yue winked at the four children, deliberately creating suspense.

The four children looked at each other, then shook their heads in unison. “We can’t guess.” This is too hard to guess!

“Don’t you want to think more, just guess anything? Giving up so quickly! This won’t do! One must use their brain, and not give up easily.”

Huangfu Yue raised the corner of her exquisite right eyebrow slightly and shook her head, educating the four children.

“Xuan’er, you guess.” Huangfu Yue looked at her nephew again.

Huangfu Xuan tilted his head slightly, thought for a moment, and then said, “I guess it’s food, it’s… something we’ve never seen, heard of, or tasted before.”

“Why do you guess that?” Huangfu Yue asked.

“Because little aunt gave us new foods before that we had never seen, heard of, or tasted, so I guessed that what you’re giving us this time should also be new food we’ve never seen, heard of, or tasted,” Huangfu Xuan replied. “Little aunt, did I guess correctly?”

“Don’t be in a hurry, I’ll tell you the answer later. Your sisters haven’t guessed yet. Jing’er, Ying’er, Ling’er, your brother has guessed. You guess too, there will be a reward for guessing correctly.” Huangfu Yue said, looking at the three little girls.

“I, I guessed the same as brother,” Huangfu Jing said first.

Hearing her elder cousin’s words, Huangfu Ling raised her little hand and called out, “I guessed the same as Big Brother.”

“Me too! I think like Brother Xuan, little aunt, you’re going to give us something delicious!” Huangfu Ying also raised her hand.

Huangfu Yue shook her head, showing a hint of dissatisfaction. “You three little girls aren’t using your brains!”

The three little girls looked at each other, showing embarrassed expressions and giving a dry laugh. They indeed hadn’t thought about it, they had just followed others’ answers.

“This time it’s okay, but you can’t do this next time. You must use your brains,” Huangfu Yue educated them. In her heart, she called for her spatial dimension to send out four lollipops, directly into the hands of the four children.

When the four children saw the lollipops suddenly appear in their hands, they were stunned for a moment, then showed surprised expressions and exclaimed in unison, “Little aunt, is this the reward you mentioned earlier?”

“Yes. These are lollipops, they’re very delicious. You just need to tear off the pretty colored paper wrapped around the round ball at the tip of the small stick to see the candy,” Huangfu Yue said.
