Victory is won over countless human struggles

  The day Mo Xie left, Mo Ye didn't see him off because Lu Yan was ill. It was some kind of acute condition, and the whole person seemed to be choked, so Lu Yan's family had to come to invite Mo Ye in the middle of the night.

  These days, Qing'er had been lingering around her sickbed, having night sweats and talking incoherently at night. Many doctors were invited, and countless prescriptions were taken, but there was no improvement. Later on, it was finally discovered by her elderly grandmother that she had a secret. One day, when Qing'er's spirit was still good, her elderly grandmother shut the door and interrogated her.

  The green ant still wanted to hide, but this fierce and terrifying disease also scared her, so she confessed to her old grandmother that it was she who had brought people into the mountain cave and collided with the flesh image.

  The old grandmother was shocked to hear the news, her face turned pale, and she hastily ordered someone to prepare three sacrifices, personally leading people to worship outside the cave. The situation with Green Ant only improved then, and coincidentally, Mian Chan left, and Green Ant's mood also improved along with it.

  But she didn't bother to let people know that she had recovered, instead she lazily lay on the couch, day after day asking someone to invite Mo Xie over.

  Mo Xie was also ill before, and at first he refused to come, but in the end he still came.

  Mo Ye stepped into the courtyard, and the whole Lu family came out to greet him, bowing respectfully. Lu couldn't sit still, she threw off her quilt and rushed out of the room, supporting herself on the doorframe at the entrance. From a distance, she saw that white-clad slender young man standing in the sunlight, bending down to help up her family members with elegance. Her face twisted as she burst into tears, "You've finally come!"

  Everyone in the family avoided going out, and only she and Mo Xie were left in the green ant's room. The green ant had already swept away her sickly look, with a rosy glow on her delicate face, "I knew you wouldn't want to come again, but today you would still come——today is Qixi Festival."

  "Is it already Qi Xi?" Mo Xie was taken aback for a moment, "It's come so quickly."

  The green ant's pretty face lit up, "You've prepared a gift for me, haven't you? My little sister secretly told me that you had someone carry two big trunks over!"

  Mo Ye frowned. The box contained venison sent by his grandfather from the mountain, the tenderest fawn of the plum blossom deer. To prevent the tribesmen from hunting randomly, they had set up a ranch on the mountain to raise deer, sheep and roe deer, providing fresh meat for the tribe. However, this venison was sent to the Lu Yan family, not just to Lu Yan alone.

  The green ant's eyes gleamed with disappointment as it gazed at his earlobe, revealing a greedy look, "I want the moonlight stone earring on your ear!"

  The moonlight has a magical power for them, and the moonstone on his ear is his mark.

  "I should go." Mo Xie stood up and went outside.

  "What's wrong with you!" The green ant fell from the bed and grabbed his arm, "You used to be good to me, how did it become like this! I know I can't monopolize you, you're destined to have your harem... but you've already promised to marry me, shouldn't you at least look up to me a bit!"

  Mo Ye suddenly turned his head, "It's precisely because I wanted to spare you a glance that I didn't punish you for bringing someone to the Chong Suo Wu Yu without permission! Do you know what kind of trouble you've stirred up?!"

  On the Double Seventh Festival night, Mazi fell asleep early. After tasting the melon seeds made by her mother and sewing a few stitches with the neighbor's girl, she crawled into bed. For a long time, Mazi had not slept so soundly.

  The quilt was like Jiang Yuan's embrace, and the pillow seemed to be stained with the fragrance of his body. She was like a child who had been lost for a long time, finally stumbling back home.

  Jiang Yuanfen racked her brains to prescribe medicine for her, and after taking it, although she didn't feel any obvious effects, she secretly hid the truth from him, only wanting to put his mind at ease.

  It was just a sweet dream that was shattered by the sudden onset of low fever. She hugged her body tightly in her sleep, and her teeth chattered involuntarily. In her dream, she was kicked off a dark cliff and woke up with a start. The room was silent and still.

  Her throat was swollen and she breathed with difficulty. She clutched herself, panting heavily - when suddenly outside the window, a vast expanse of starlight floated up.

  One, two, a hundred, a thousand... Her window frames were all lit up, as if they were filled with colorful lanterns. She suddenly remembered what it was, and tumbled out of bed, stumbling and rushing to the window...

  Delicate clouds play cleverly, flying stars convey hatred, the vast Milky Way quietly crosses. Golden wind and jade dew meet once, and they surpass countless human affairs...

  What lit up her window was actually thousands and millions of fireflies!

  Happy Double Seventh Festival! Thanks for the big flower from Lan~
