《Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time!》Chapter 14: Receive a Letter
Advertisement
Ever since Yun Lian suffered a setback in the room, she had not come out for a few days to make a scene.
Yun Xi jumped at the opportunity to frequently produce some delicious food from the [Space] to 'feed' her adorable younger brother, Yun Yang.
Days passed just like that. After a few days, a postman wearing a green uniform knocked on the Yun residence's main door.
"Sister-in-law, there's a letter for your family."
Liu Fang happened to pass by the courtyard and saw the postman in green. As this place was small, every family was familiar with each other. The postman directly asked her to accept the package.
Given that she had studied for two years, she could read a few keywords.
From the top of the package, it could be seen that such a big package was for Old Master Yun.
Although Old Master Yun had always been ill, he was still honorable in the family. Those who had served in the army had a different temperament, giving people the illusion of submission.
"Old Man, Old Master Zhou has sent you a letter."
Liu Fang sent the package over and left. She did not want to stay in the old man's room for even a second.
Zhao Lan was the one who handed the package to Old Master Yun.
"It should be from Buddy Zhou!"
The old man's dazed eyes seemed to light up as he recalled his lofty military career.
He opened the package. Inside were two letters and a small piece of luggage wrapped in cloth.
One of the letters was written by Old Master Zhou to Old Master Yun, while the other letter was written by Zhou Lin to Yun Xi.
The old man had been a messenger in the past, so it was not difficult for him to read. When he noticed that there was another letter written to her granddaughter, he hurriedly asked the old lady to ask his granddaughter over.

When Yun Xi heard that Zhou Lin had written to her, she was slightly surprised. However, when she thought about how Zhou Lin had taken so many medicines from her before he returned, she understood his situation.
Yun Xi came all the way to the old man's house. She did not know why she would be so worked up when she received a letter from a man even though she was nearly 50 years old altogether in her two lifetimes.
"Yun Xi,
Hope all is well.
Thank you for the medicines you gave me. My leg injury has improved in the past two days. In particular, the painkiller wrapped in the white pill had a miraculous effect. After taking it for a few moments, most of the pain in my body has been alleviated.
..."
At the back of the letter, there were some routine greetings and words of appreciation. In the last two lines, he talked about having prepared two sets of clothes for Yun Xi as a token of appreciation. He had also sent over some rare fruits, hoping that she would like them.
Old Master Yun had also finished reading the letter from Old Master Zhou. In his cloudy eyes, there seemed to be tears glistening. It was likely that Old Master Zhou had also explained the gifts in the letter. Old Master Yun was tactful and instructed Yun Xi to bring these gifts back when she returned.
The old lady, on the other hand, did not know what was happening. When the two of them were reading the letters, she had already opened the cloth bag that had been mailed over. She saw some fruits that she had never seen before that, and they were emitting a strange fragrance. There were also two fashionable flowery dresses.
She originally thought that it was Zhou Mo, that young master, who mailed these to her little granddaughter. She did not expect that these good things were all for the little girl, Yun Xi.

However, Yun Xi knew what to do. After living for two lifetimes, she definitely knew how to be sophisticated.
As usual, she accepted the clothes. She picked out some of these rare fruits and left them in Old Master Yun's room.
"Grandpa, these gifts should be for you. I'll bring some back for my parents to taste."
Yun Xi tried to establish a positive image of herself in front of Old Master Yun. She portrayed herself as filial and sensible. After fawning over Old Master Yun, she would not have to worry about not having a strong support in this family.
"Alright, you've grown up. Hurry up and go back."
Old Master Yun used the corner of his shirt to wipe away the tears at the corners of his eyes. Looking at the fruits that Yun Xi had picked out, he revealed a satisfied and excited smile.
It was embarrassing of Old Master Yun to shed tears in front of the children. Therefore, he urged Yun Xi to hurry home..
