Chapter 591 Chang'e Sister Éi!

"Dong, dong, dong~!" As the knocking sounded, Hai Tianqing wanted to open the door, but Fang Xingyun gave him a seemingly non-existent glance and said, "The Hu family couple."

Hai Tianqing braced himself and went to open the door, seeing Hu Wei and Cang Lan leading the round-headed, chubby Xiao Yuanyuan in.

"Jiang Xiao's back?" Cang Lan greeted Hai Tianqing, her waterfall-like black hair draped over her neck, and stepped inside, asking with a look of pleasant surprise.

Jiang Hua said, "I'm Jiang Hua. Jiang Xiao just went to the riverbank to prepare a bonfire feast. Your family of three has returned at the perfect time."

"Hehe." Hu Wei laughed heartily, reaching out to rub Yuanyuan's head, and said, "We went out to climb the mountain with Yuanyuan. The little guy's physique is really good, he climbed faster than me."

Hu Wei's words were clearly praising Yuanyuan. In the past, Yuanyuan would proudly pat his little chest with a resounding thud, but this time...

Yuanyuan had been stunned ever since he walked into the living room.

"Yuanyuan, greet people, these are Uncle Quan's teammates." Cang Lan squatted down, brought her face close to Yuanyuan's, and said softly.

But Yuanyuan's big eyes were still staring blankly ahead, without saying a word.

Cang Lan was a little confused. This wasn't my child!

Yuanyuan's personality simply didn't include shyness. Even if there were a lot of strangers present, he wouldn't be timid, so...???

Following Yuanyuan's gaze, Cang Lan looked over and saw Han Jiangxue sitting on the bamboo chair, quietly drinking tea.

What a beautiful girl, what a presence.

In Teacher Fang's home, Han Jiangxue had shed her icy demeanor, and her eyebrows seemed a little gentler.

She had obviously noticed the little guy's gaze. Of course, she knew of Yuanyuan's existence. Back then, she, Xia Yan, and Jiang Xiao had jointly bought books and toys for Yuanyuan and sent them into the upper Snow Plains dimension. She remembered these things clearly.

But... but why was this little guy stunned?

"You must be Yuanyuan. Jiang Xiao mentioned you to me!" Xia Yan walked over with her long legs, squatted down, and said with a smile, "You know, I bought your picture books for you."

Unexpectedly, Yuanyuan stretched out his little hand, pressed it on Xia Yan's face, and pushed away Xia Yan, who was blocking his view.

Xia Yan: ???

Cang Lan's expression turned stern, and she said sternly, "Yuanyuan, how can you be so impolite!?"

Yuanyuan finally came back to his senses, reached out to hold his mother's hand, pointed a finger at Han Jiangxue, and said, "Chang'e *jie jie* éi!" (sister)

For a moment, everyone present was stunned.

Jiang Hua covered his face with one hand. Crap, how could he have forgotten about this!?

"It really is Chang'e *jie jie* éi!" Yuanyuan let go of his mother's hand, flapping his short legs, and walked forward quickly, circling around Han Jiangxue's bamboo chair, observing and sizing her up from all angles. His big eyes were filled with even more surprise.

Han Jiangxue placed her teacup on the table beside her, reached out, and stopped the little guy from circling her, asking, "Why do you say that?"

Yuanyuan looked up, feeling the slender hand pressed on his head, and said in surprise, "It's real, not an illusion, not a dream, I can touch it!"

As he spoke, Yuanyuan stretched out his finger and cautiously poked the palm of Han Jiangxue's hand in front of him.

Yuanyuan quickly turned around, looked at Jiang Hua, and said, "Has Hou Yi come too!?"

Jiang Hua covered his face, burying it even lower.

Hou Yi exploded! He exploded just this morning, his chest pierced by fencing...

"What's going on?" Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Hua and asked softly.

Jiang Hua said with an embarrassed smile, "Do you remember when I said I wanted to tell Yuanyuan a story, so I specifically absorbed the Lily of the Valley Star Bead before going to the upper Snow Plains?"

Han Jiangxue: "Mm."

Jiang Hua spread out his hands and said as a matter of course, "The story characters always need a prototype, right? So, I picked the most beautiful one from all the women I've met in my life."

"Pfft..." Gu Shian spat out a mouthful of tea, "Cough, cough..."

While coughing, he gave Jiang Hua a thumbs up!

Boss! Awesome!

You can even smooth things over like that! You can even flirt like that!

Han Jiangxue's face flushed slightly, and she glared at Jiang Hua. Just as she was about to say something, Jiang Hua quickly said, "The bonfire party is ready, let's go to the riverside."

As he spoke, Jiang Hua stepped forward quickly, picked up Yuanyuan, and ran.

Xia Yan wasn't happy, though. With a few flashes, she went directly to the riverside, not speaking to Jiang Hua, but directly approaching the person in charge, Jiang Xiao.

As soon as she flashed here, she saw a huge bonfire, crackling and burning under the starry sky.

And around the bonfire, a circle of savages were cheering happily. They hadn't held a bonfire feast in a long time since Xiao Chongyang left.

Xia Yan looked left and right. With the crowd of people, she simply closed her eyes and used her senses to find Jiang Xiao, who was hiding by the river, bathing the Yingying Bear.

"Hey! I also care about him, and I went with you to buy toys. Why isn't there me in his story!?" Xia Yan pounced on Jiang Xiao's back and directly strangled Jiang Xiao's neck.

"Ying?" The Yingying Bear was sitting on the ground, its fluffy face being rubbed back and forth by Jiang Xiao, shaking its head comfortably. Suddenly, it was knocked to the ground, with Xia Yan and Jiang Xiao pressing on its belly.

Jiang Xiao said, "You're in it, of course you are. In the story of Chang'e, isn't there also Marshal Tianpeng..."

Xia Yan was shocked! Completely shocked!

She stood up and kicked Jiang Xiao into the river, stomping her feet angrily: "Ya!"

"Pfft." Jiang Xiao poked his head out of the river, spitting a legful of water at Xia Yan, and said, "Just kidding, how could I turn you into Pigsy? You're so beautiful."

Xia Yan's emotions finally stabilized, and she snorted softly: "Hmph, that's for sure. Say it! Why isn't there me in his story!?"

"There's only one girl in that story. You don't have a role to play. There's also a rabbit. Do you want to be it?" Jiang Xiao grinned, still comforting her, "It doesn't matter that you're not in his story. You're in my story."

Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and pointed at Jiang Xiao in the river, "Tch! You渣男(zhā nán, scumbag)! You just flirted with Xue Xue and now you're flirting with me!"

Some people didn't want to, but their bodies were very honest.

While Xia Yan was scolding, she stretched out her long legs and handed her military boots to Jiang Xiao, signaling him to grab them and climb ashore.

Jiang Xiao grabbed Xia Yan's ankle and exerted force suddenly, pulling her into the river too...

"Ya!"

A few minutes later, when the Hai family, Hu family, and the Weiyu group were sitting on grass mats, eating barbecue and drinking thorn fruit wine, they saw two drenched chickens walking over, bickering.

Fang Xingyun looked at the two little ones with a smile, handing them napkins.

Jiang Xiao nudged Xia Yan's shoulder, gesturing towards Han Jiangxue's position, and said, "Tell me the truth, aren't you moved by this scene? If I don't use her image, who else would I use?"

Xia Yan pursed her lips, wiping her wet short hair while looking at Han Jiangxue.

Under the illumination of the huge bonfire, Han Jiangxue's eyes, a mix of light and shadow, were illuminated. She looked into the distance, at the savages singing to their hearts' content in front of the bonfire, and a hint of a smile gradually appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Fine, whatever." Xia Yan said casually, being good at finding an excuse, "I'll let it go because you specially prepared barbecue for me and held a bonfire party."

Surrounding them were savages standing silently, listening to the singing. And directly opposite them, beyond the blazing firelight, was another seating area for the human camp.

Compared to here, the atmosphere over there was more somber.

Dasheng sat next to Hou Mingming. Ever since Erwei took Fu Hei and Ying Ya away, he had been quietly accompanying Hou Mingming, comforting his companion in his own way.

The blind girl was kneeling on the grass mat, next to Jiang Hua, who was propped up on his side, eating fruit leisurely.

Gu Shian looked curiously at the savages. When they first arrived, the savages were still cheering and jumping for joy, but since the bonfire party started, since the singing began, the cheering was gone, the dancing was gone, only the chanting remained.

Gu Shian became interested and asked curiously, "What are they singing? This melody..."

Cang Lan explained, "In order to better teach the savage children, Teacher Fang studied the language of the savage tribe very hard.

This song is a gift from Teacher Fang to the savage tribe. Now, it is the White Birch Forest tribe song personally designated by Chieftain Bru."

For a moment, everyone looked at Fang Xingyun with admiration.

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask, but I just couldn't find the opportunity. Why did you write a song in the savage language instead of directly writing a Chinese song?"

Since Jiang Hua had been stationed here, he knew this song.

Fang Xingyun said, "We want to enlighten them, not assimilate them.

Teaching them the language, opening their minds, and letting them understand Chinese culture is all in the hope that they will learn more about the outside world and be able to communicate with humans one day.

They already have their own language and their own tribal traditions. After being enlightened by Ms. Zhu Yue, they changed from 'beasts' to 'savages'.

Of course, some assimilation is inevitable.

But I hope they can retain those excellent tribal cultures and pass them on to future generations."

Jiang Xiao looked at Hai Tianqing with a look of admiration and said, "Look at your wife, and then look at you, you're both teachers at the Imperial Capital Star Warrior Academy..."

Hai Tianqing looked at Fang Xingyun with gentle eyes, smiled, and didn't say anything.

"Teacher Fang, what are the lyrics?" Gu Shian was still full of curiosity about the song. This melody seemed a little sad?

Fang Xingyun listened carefully, following the savages' singing, and translated it sentence by sentence:

"Before the white birch forest, a small river flows.

The birch leaves on the river drift to the distance.

Distant graves, please listen to my singing,

The singing is of white birch, thorn fruit, your home.

The children of the hometown grow up generation after generation,

They take up knives and halberds and rush to the battlefield.

May the heroic souls who died in battle bless their return home.

Home is white birch, thorn fruit, the place where birch leaves drift."

The smiles on the faces of the people who had been listening to the ballad faded.

They had originally stood at a higher angle to look at these savages, to listen to their strange language and strange songs.

But after they understood the meaning of the lyrics, they also quieted down.

They were fighting outside, and so was the white birch forest, only on different levels.

Here, Jiang Xiao was their "god".

Jiang Xiao gave them a world, gave them a piece of land, and gave them a goal to fight for.

The savage tribe was indeed different from other races. Even the creatures in Yegu Pagoda and the City of Dancing Souls had higher intelligence, but for people, they still hadn't broken away from the concept of "star beasts".

Perhaps conquest and slaughter still existed in the blood of the savage tribe, but after their minds were opened, after they had culture and heritage, the savage tribe truly broke away from the concept of star beasts.

Ms. Zhu Yue enlightened the White Birch Forest, Jiang Xiao infinitely strengthened the White Birch Forest, the Hu family couple consolidated the agricultural and pastoral development of the White Birch Forest, and Fang Xingyun, even if she didn't do anything in the future, just relying on this song could establish her status.

When a race truly has faith, and no longer kills for the sake of killing or lives for the sake of living, in the forest of thousands of races in this Star Warrior world, the savage tribe will have the conditions to inherit and survive.

"Second Aunt!" Xiao Chongyang jumped up from behind the giant savage witch and rode on her neck.

The witch smiled, raised her arm to support Xiao Chongyang's body, and said softly, "I'm your second aunt. Your first aunt has gone to the battlefield."

Xiao Chongyang hugged the giant head of the savage witch with both hands and said, "This song is so nice, why haven't I heard it before?"

The witch said, "Teacher Fang taught it to us."

As she spoke, the witch took Xiao Chongyang and walked to the bonfire, shouting loudly at the savages, "\$ ~!"

"Oh! Oh! Oh!"

"Woo! Woo! Woo!" As the song ended, the bonfire party, which had been slightly silent, became lively again. Obviously, the savages were planning to truly enjoy the evening.

"Second Aunt, sing my favorite song!" Xiao Chongyang, riding on the witch's neck, leaned down and looked at the witch's face.

"Okay, you start, and the tribesmen will sing along with you." A trace of doting appeared in the witch's eyes.

"Yo-hoo~" Xiao Chongyang seemed to have found his old self, happily singing loudly, "On the mountain where the horses run..."

The savages, who were feasting, heard the familiar singing, put down the barbecue and fruit in their mouths, and loudly echoed in pure Chinese accents: "A cloud, a cloud..."

For a moment, the atmosphere of the bonfire party was exceptionally lively.
