992: Chapter 616 992: Chapter 616 Lin Dandan went to the Cai Family’s castle and naturally mentioned it to everyone, but no one else had much to say!
“Oh, when you’ve got status, it’s different.
While we toil away, some get to rest!” Lin Daiyu said with her sharp tongue.
Lin Dandan ignored her, as the rest of the family encouraged her to go and rest assuredly, assuring her that they would keep watch here!
“Alright, please let me know if anything comes up!”
Lin Dandan nodded to everyone and flew away silently, not caring what others thought.
Protecting herself and the child in her womb was the top priority!
Yan Weiwei came out to meet Lin Dandan and did not leave again.
Although there weren’t many people in the castle, they still needed a few of the higher-level cultivators to guard it!
Being with her family was what she needed to do at this moment!
As for the beast tide outside, it wasn’t that they couldn’t control the situation!
Cai Xiangxiang helped to arrange a room, giving Lin Dandan a quiet and comfortable room!
Jiang Tang had prepared many guest rooms when he helped them build the castle, making use of some empty spaces.
In addition to their own, every village household had one beautiful house, so that outsiders coming in could have individual houses with their own small courtyards!
He thought that if people came to visit Cai Xiangxiang in the future, it wouldn’t be right to always stay in her house without any rooms.
Moreover, sometimes he would bring some women over; they couldn’t just stay inside a Magical Treasure, could they?
So, they used some other people’s vegetable patches and wastelands to build houses, planning a series of small homes with courtyards one by one.
They never thought they’d be living here now, without bothering other villagers!
In this small house with two rooms, a small kitchen, and a latrine, the space might be small, but it was more than enough for Lin Dandan alone!
This place was a temporary residence.
The room had no bed or quilts!
An unoccupied room.
These cultivators usually all had Storage Bags, storage rings, and the like, containing all sorts of things.
When traveling, they would be prepared with many items; beds, quilts, clothes, luggage, decorations—all sorts placed out one by one; chairs, tables, dressing tables, the bed, quilts!
The whole room was filled, and there was no living room, nor a need to prepare for receiving guests.
This small table and few stools in the room were for entertaining incoming visitors!
It also was her living space here, and one room became the entirety of her active area!
“Knock, knock, knock”
Yan Weiwei gently tapped on the door, and upon opening, she saw how quickly the room was set up and smiled:
“Not bad, quite a cozy little home!
I knew you liked using your own stuff, so I didn’t arrange otherwise!”
Lin Dandan stood up and performed a Purification Magic on herself, then gestured to Yan Weiwei, who was holding a tray, to please come in.
“Senior sister, I’m fully capable of taking care of myself—no need for such courtesy!”
Yan Weiwei nodded.
She was also a guest here.
Having stayed a little longer, no matter what others thought, she would make sure Lin Dandan had a proper place to stay and fulfill her responsibility as a senior sister, caring for Jiang Tang’s woman while he was away.
Yan Weiwei set down the tray of fruits.
Cai Xiangxiang came in from behind: “Sister Lin, you’ve sorted things out already?
Hungry?
I’ve brought you some lunch!”
On the tray, she placed fish soup, chicken, eggs, and a big bowl of white rice on the small table.
“Thank you for the trouble,” Lin Dandan nodded.
“We only have these simple foods here, Sister Lin.
Please, enjoy your meal slowly!”
“Thanks, they’re already very good!” Lin Dandan sincerely thanked her.
Although the dishes were few, they were nutritionally balanced.
“Alright, we won’t disturb Sister Lin while she eats.
Senior sister, let’s go back and eat together!” Cai Xiangxiang warmly took Yan Weiwei’s hand, then nodded to Lin Dandan before going out and closing the door behind her.
Lin Dandan didn’t feel slighted by this solo reception; this way, she could eat her fill in peace and do whatever she wanted afterward.
The quiet environment was conducive to cultivation!
And so she settled in here, with meals delivered by someone each time, whether it was Cai Xiangxiang or Yan Weiwei.
They would message her, and if she responded, they would deliver; if there was no reply, they would not disturb her cultivation!
However, at the next meal, they would remind her—if she skipped meals for the sake of Cultivation, the child in her womb would lack nutrition.
Cai Xiangxiang generally wouldn’t say such things, not wanting to be disliked for speaking out of turn!
She would leave these matters to Yan Weiwei, who would give suggestions or speak on her behalf.
Lin Dandan wasn’t bothered by Yan Weiwei’s words, nor did she dislike being looked after.
Here, where everyone else was a stranger, it was warming to be cared for.
She felt that with pregnancy, she had become much more vulnerable, perhaps softened by impending motherhood.
On the outside, she showed no need for care, but inside, she was fragile!
As the days went by, she always hoped Jiang Tang would return with a surprise.
With every knock on the door, she hoped to see her beloved appear!
Yan Weiwei conscientiously took care of Lin Dandan.
Besides instructing the family during the day, she would meditate at night.
Now she didn’t need to sleep, but she couldn’t enter spiritual retreat either.
Perhaps preoccupied, she couldn’t concentrate on her Cultivation and thus couldn’t improve her Cultivation.
The Spiritual Energy within the castle was rich, much warmer than the cold winter outside.
It didn’t feel like it was snowing, but rather like springtime warmth!
Cai Xiangxiang would occasionally check on Lin Dandan, but mostly she would provide answers to her family and the villagers, keeping herself busy.
Being busy meant not always thinking about Jiang Tang!
