Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points C.342 - 335 Er Dan’s Dream_1

Chapter 342: Chapter 335 Er Dan’s Dream_1

Before, Qin Niu was just a child from a poor family.

Er Dan could play with him without a care in the world.

Now Qin Niu’s status is incredibly noble, while Er Dan remains just an ordinary child from a poor family, naturally he doesn’t dare to easily get close to Qin Niu anymore.

Even if Er Dan is just a child, with none of the social customs of adults, his parents worry that their child might offend Qin Niu by speaking to him as before, and that would bring disaster upon their family.

“Offend? What are you talking about! If you ever want to see me, as long as I’m at home, you can come by any time. If you want to learn Insect Controlling, I can teach you that too, and help you become an Insect Master.”

Qin Niu took extra care of this little buddy.

He now had the complete capability to help Er Dan become a true Insect Master. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

“I… I don’t want to be an Insect Master, I want to be a Beast Tamer!”

Er Dan said, looking up at him.

“A Beast Tamer is better? But your family’s condition isn’t too good, if you raise a fierce beast that needs to eat meat at every meal, will your dad agree?”

“I don’t have to raise a fierce beast! I can raise an animal that eats grass, or even a mouse. The Treasure-Seeking Mouse that the lame man in the neighboring village has is really good.”

Er Dan had his own ideas.

“Why don’t you want to be an Insect Master?”

Qin Niu asked, purely out of curiosity.

“Because Insect Masters are feared by people, no one dares to deal with them. My dad told me that the bugs of Insect Masters are especially terrifying, a single bite, and you’ll lose your life right away. My mom also said that girls are very afraid of bugs, and it’s hard for Insect Masters to get married. Our family only has me as a son, if I can’t get a wife, my dad will definitely be very disappointed. I don’t want to make them unhappy.”

Er Dan may seem mischievous and often gets hung up by his dad to be whipped with a cane, but that doesn’t affect his filial piety towards his parents.

“Well, you do make some sense. This Talisman is called a Contract Charm, if you come across an animal you like, you can bite the tip of your finger, and then drop your blood right here. The Talisman will turn into a beam of golden light and shoot into the body of that animal…”

Qin Niu took out a Low-grade Contract Charm and handed it to Er Dan.

And he explained in detail how to use it.

“I can’t take something so valuable.”

Er Dan held back his hands, afraid to accept it.

“There’s no need to be so formal with me. After you become a great Beast Tamer, you might even help me with some things! Take it! But remember, never flash your wealth, and you must not tell anyone. After you’ve tamed an animal, you should train it well, and never show off in front of others. It’s best to even keep it a secret from your own parents and family.”

Qin Niu admonished Er Dan.

“Alright then! Thank you, Brother Ah Niu!”

Er Dan took the Talisman and carefully tucked it away like a treasure.

“The Talisman must not be contaminated, you’d better get a box to keep it in. Don’t fold it to avoid damage.”

Qin Niu patted Er Dan’s head.

“Here’s two Silver Moneys as a gift for your happiness. Today I’ll have a banquet at my house, remember to come and eat. You can eat your fill, and even take some home for tomorrow.”

“Hehe, Brother Ah Niu treats me the best! I’ll go get a box to put the Contract Charm in first.”

Er Dan was still childlike at heart.

The mention of delicious food immediately made his face light up with greed.

But he knew priorities, and he knew to get a box to keep the Talisman safe first.

Qin Niu watched Er Dan run off and couldn’t help but smile, his gaze filled with tenderness.

Before long, Auntie Hua came over to hurry him along.

“Master Qin, the auspicious hour is nearly upon us. I’m going to escort Miss Xiao Qing to fetch Tang Caixian. You go next door to welcome Miss Wang, and after you’ve brought her back, we’ll wait for Miss Tang to be escorted back as well so the wedding ceremony can proceed together.”

Auntie Hua’s face was painted with powder and rouge, her lips colored as red as a chicken’s behind.

There was even a red flower in her hair, signifying celebration.

This attire was quite amusing to look at.

“Alright! I will follow Aunt Hua’s arrangements.”

Qin Niu naturally had no objections.

“Hey, you can’t just go over like this; you have to change into the groom’s attire. Do you want me to help you with that?”

“No need; I can change by myself,”

Qin Niu waved his hand.

Wang Wanyan had already prepared his wedding attire, which was in the room. Today, he could just change into it directly.

After changing into his clothes, he led the suona band and the drum troupe, clanging and banging all the way to the adjacent house.

Wang Furen, too, was dressed in a brand-new outfit today, complete with a hat studded with jewels. He seldom wore a belt, but today he had one fastened around his waist.

In his hand, he held a jade ruyi scepter.

He emanated an aura of wealth and festivity.

Wang Furen’s maid supported Wang Wanyan as she gracefully descended the attic stairs.

“Qin Niu, this daughter of mine is my only treasure. I’ve never had the heart to scold or hit her. Today, I am formally entrusting her to you. Live a good life together, and if Wanyan does anything wrong, I ask that you be patient with her,”

said Wang Furen, his face filled with reluctance.

A woman should get married when she comes of age, and so should a man. He knew that this day would inevitably come.

Now that he was entrusting her to Qin Niu, it didn’t seem too bad.

“Please rest assured, Uncle Wang, I will treat Wanyan well and will honor you and Aunt together with her in the future,”

said Qin Niu. The Aunt he referred to was Wang Furen’s maid.

Although she had no formal status, she was, in reality, Wang Furen’s concubine.

“Qin Niu, our houses are close neighbors. If Wanyan ever makes you unhappy, come to me; do not harm her,”

the maid, who rarely spoke, said with a choked voice as she handed Wang Wanyan over to Qin Niu.

“Aunt, I will remember,”

Qin Niu nodded solemnly.

“Wanyan, remember to come back home often to see your father! If you ever need help, you can come to me anytime, or just send someone with a message,”

the maid told Wang Wanyan.

“Whimper…”

Wang Wanyan couldn’t hold back her sobs.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry, it’s your big day, you should be happy!”

The maid quickly comforted Wang Wanyan, gently patting her back and sending her off into the bridal sedan.

Wang Wanyan, with a voice slightly hoarse, said, “Father… Stepmother, please take good care of yourselves!”

She usually had conflicts with this maid since she believed that the maid had taken the love that should have belonged to her mother.

Now, for the first time, she called her “Stepmother.”

This also meant that, in her heart, Wang Wanyan had finally acknowledged the maid as her father’s concubine.

If she hadn’t been so adamantly opposed all along, Wang Furen might have taken the maid as a concubine by now.

Hearing her call the maid “Stepmother,” Wang Furen felt both gratified and a touch melancholic.

Qin Niu, with his bride, made his way back to his mansion.

The two households were adjacent; this must have been the shortest journey ever for a groom to receive his bride.

After Wang Wanyan was brought home, Aunt Hua on the other side was quite efficient; it wasn’t long before the sound of gongs and drums could be heard from afar.

Tang Caixian was also being brought back.

Both brides were first-class beauties, shrouded in floral veils and dressed in bright red.

“The auspicious time has arrived; the groom and bride, please proceed to the wedding ceremony!”

The master of ceremonies was Xu Zhenchang.

The three positioned themselves accordingly, standing side by side.
