About Talulah... / Discussing

Looking out the window at the receding scenery, and noticing that they were getting closer to their destination, Wen Fumizuki gently patted the little one leaning against her and said, "We're almost there. Little Griseo should get up too. Even if you want to sleep, you should eat dinner first."

"Ugh... I understand." Upon hearing this, Griseo rubbed her eyes, sat up straight, and replied in a soft voice.

"When we get there, Griseo, don't be shy. Just make yourself at home. But later you'll meet Wei Yenwu, the guy Little Tal mentioned. Don't be afraid, and you can ignore him if you don't want to." After giving these gentle instructions, Fumizuki couldn't help but reach out and pat Griseo's head.

"If he yells at you tonight, you can come and tell your auntie, and I'll help you teach him a lesson."

Okay~

Hearing Fumizuki mention this, Griseo perked up, a hint of excitement flashing in her beautiful purple eyes, and she nodded quickly.

Honestly, she was really eager to see this "traditional program" of the Lungmen Governor's family. Although she already knew that Wei Yenwu was henpecked, she had never seen him in person, whether as a little girl or in any other capacity!

"Heh~"

Fumizuki naturally noticed the expression on Griseo's face, but she simply assumed it was just a child being happy because someone was backing her up. "Let's get off the bus then. The housekeeper at home made a lot of delicious food tonight. I hope you'll like it, little Griseo."

Afterwards, Griseo followed Fumizuki into the residence. Once inside, she instinctively began to observe her surroundings, but unfortunately, she did not see Wei Yenwu.

However, the little girl didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, he was the lord of a city, so it was normal for him to be very busy and get off work late.

However, Griseo was completely unaware that Wei Yenwu was expected to return much later than usual today, and the reason was still because of her.

Because of what the little girl had told her last time, Fumizuki was worried that her husband would come home too early and scare the child, interrupting her good time. So she ordered him to work overtime today, or find something else to do if necessary.

Of course, to prevent anyone from taking this opportunity to sneak out for drinks, Fumizuki also made sure to keep Shirayuki by his side to protect him.

"Dinner will be a little while later. Auntie has prepared some gifts for you, little Griseo! Let's take a look!" After checking on the kitchen, Fumizuki returned to the living room, looking at the cute little girl sitting on the sofa with a smile and a hint of excitement.

"Hmm...?"

Upon hearing this, Griseo looked up, somewhat confused. Then, after meeting Fumizuki's gaze, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Before she could say anything, the person opposite her stepped forward and pulled her towards a room inside the villa.

Then, very quickly, Griseo's ominous premonition was confirmed.

"...!"

The blue-haired little girl stared blankly for a moment at the row of neatly hung dresses and clothes in front of her, then realized what was happening, shuddered, and instinctively tried to back away.

However, having already lured the little cutie inside, how could Fumizuki let her go so easily? She immediately slammed the door shut, extinguishing her hopes.

"Oh, Little Greta, why don't you try this on? I've noticed you've been wearing this dress the last few times. Since you're in Lungmen, why not take a few more back with you?" As she spoke, Fumizuki suppressed the corners of her mouth from turning around, took a dress from the clothes rack, and looked at Griseo.

"???)!"

Help! There's a creepy auntie here!!

In the end, the kitten—no, the little girl—couldn't escape the clutches of her furry aunt and was forced to embark on a dress-up journey.

Half an hour later--

"Oh dear, it's time to eat! There's so much more I haven't tried yet~ What a pity."

Hearing the sounds coming from outside the door, Fumizuki looked at Griseo, who had a look of utter despair on her face, with a hint of regret. "But, as expected, my taste hasn't deteriorated. These clothes suit little Griseo very well."

"Alright, it's time to eat. You can go change back into your original dress now, or you can wear what you're wearing now, since you're both very cute."

"???)...!"

Griseo, who had changed nearly 10 outfits in the past half hour, turned around and rushed into the cubicle to change into a dress the moment she heard Fumizuki's words.

Although the little girl doesn't object to wearing dresses, it doesn't mean she enjoys constantly changing outfits like a dress-up doll and getting compliments all the time... which makes her feel a bit embarrassed.

"Pfft..."

Watching Griseo's retreating figure, as if she were being chased by some ferocious beast, Fumizuki covered her mouth, unable to suppress a laugh. "Griseo is even cuter than Chen and Little Tal were when they were little."

After sighing, she seemed to remember something, and her smile faded, replaced by a look of melancholy.

Although Talulah had told Fumizuki in her previous letter that everything was fine on her end, she was still a little worried. After all, many children would put on a brave face in front of their parents, especially those with a relationship like theirs...

Hopefully, I can get some information out of little Griseo later and then offer some help.

P. S.: I'm back, but it's a bit late. Does anyone have any good medicine that I take four pills three times a day, and that smells a bit like cilantro?

Chapter 140: About Talulah...

"Hmm...?"

Griseo sat in the dining room, first looking at the abundant and diverse dinner in front of her, then at the empty seat next to Fumizuki, and couldn't help but tilt her head slightly, a question mark appearing on her little head.

"Furry... Is someone missing for dinner?"

"Little Griseo refers to Wei Yenwu? Don't worry about him, he's working overtime tonight, so he won't be having dinner with us." Hearing this, Fumizuki smiled gently and explained in a mild tone.

"Eat quickly, or it'll get cold. Even if you want to chat, you can talk while you eat. We don't have any strict rules about this in our family, so just relax and enjoy it."

"Uh-huh!"

After hearing Fumizuki's words, Griseo didn't say anything more. After nodding in agreement, she picked up her chopsticks and began to eat in small bites.

After a couple of bites, the little girl's pretty eyes lit up. She was completely amazed by the chef's culinary skills. Although she wasn't a picky eater, she could still tell the difference between good and bad food.

Having been in Lungmen for so long, Griseo has been shown many delicious foods, but after this battle, the top spot on the list of most delicious foods has been completely rewritten!

For a fleeting moment, she didn't even want to go back to the Reunion Movement and eat potatoes! Auntie, I'm hungry! Food!

Of course, this was just a thought; the little girl wouldn't be bought off by a meal. Rather than thinking about how to live under someone else's roof and freeload, she'd rather be thinking about poaching the chef.

After all, how could we forget our sisters when there's good food? We definitely have to find a way to bring it back! At the very least, we have to find a way to improve the food there.

Looking into the girl's bright eyes, Fumizuki used serving chopsticks to put some more food on her plate and asked, "How was dinner? Did you enjoy it, little Griseo?"

"Mmm, the food at the fluffy family's house is delicious."

Upon hearing this, Griseo nodded happily at first, then, as if remembering something, her mood shifted to one of disappointment, "But, it would be great if Talulah and the others could try it too..."

"..."

Fumizuki, who was already preoccupied with something, was momentarily speechless upon hearing Griseo. After a brief silence, she quickly composed herself and said with a smile, "Little Griseo, if you like it, eat more. But since we're on the topic, Auntie has a few questions for you."

"If you answer well, then the wish you just mentioned isn't something that can't be fulfilled!"

"Really???)?"

Seeing that Fumizuki, this huge fish, had taken the bait, Griseo blinked imperceptibly, then looked at her with a serious expression, waiting for her to continue.

"Heh~"

Unaware that she was a huge fish in Griseo's eyes, Fumizuki couldn't help but chuckle when she met Gretsch's expectant gaze. "Of course, I'm a woman of my word... How could a fluffy creature like me lie to such a cute little child as Griseo?"

"Hmm... then ask me, if I know."

"Don't worry, it won't be anything difficult. For example, little Griseo, can you tell me what you usually ate at the Little Tal?" Looking at the adorable little girl in front of her, Fumizuki's voice softened even more.

"Ugh???)..."

After hearing Fumizuki's simple question, Griseo roughly understood what the other person was thinking. She pondered for a moment, then held up her small hand and counted on her fingers, saying truthfully, "In the camp, there are potatoes, vegetable soup, Canned Food soup, meat soup... and occasionally fish soup or something."

"I see..."

Upon hearing Griseo's answer, a look of understanding flashed in Fumizuki's eyes. She then lovingly piled more food onto Gretchen's plate. "Has your camp ever experienced a food shortage?"

"???)..."

Looking at the food piling up in her bowl, Griseo silently moved her small bowl a little further away before nodding and saying, "Yes, but I took care of that when I was out last time... There shouldn't be any problems for a while?"

The little girl, who already roughly understood what Fumizuki was thinking, didn't mind guiding her a bit and then revealing some of her abilities to provide her with some small, convenient assistance.

"Griseo, you went out... Oh, is that so?"

Upon hearing this, Fumizuki, with a gentle expression and a smile on her face, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly and sigh. At the same time, her quick mind immediately recalled something that happened yesterday.

Yesterday, she noticed that Griseo and one of her sisters had purchased a large amount of supplies in Lungmen. While the quantity wasn't terrifying, it was certainly noteworthy.

Fumizuki had guessed that this batch of supplies would most likely be used for her niece, Little Tal, and now it seems that it's completely confirmed.

It seems that Griseo brings things back home ( to the Reunion Movement) every time she goes on a trip to support their development.

"Griseo, you really support that kid Little Tal." After figuring it out, Fumizuki couldn't help but sigh again.

To be honest, family knows family. Although it had been a long time since they had seen each other, Fumizuki felt that she still understood Little Tal's true nature.

She would never allow a child as young as Griseo to carry supplies for her when she went out. Since it couldn't have been Talulah's idea, and considering that Griseo's sisters gave the little one a lot of autonomy, the answer is obvious...

"Hmm... because I believe that with everyone's support, Talulah will be a great leader!" Hearing Fumizuki's exclamation, Griseo nodded emphatically, her eyes sparkling as she spoke.

This isn't something the little girl made up; it's her honest opinion.

If it weren't for Black Serpent's meddling and the loss of her friends, Griseo believed that Talulah was qualified and capable of leading her companions to the end. There might have been stumbles along the way, but setbacks are accompanied by growth and change. She didn't believe that Talulah would be unable to get back up after encountering setbacks, or that the Reunion Movement would be unable to rise again.

Although Talulah was called a "diode" by many before she transmigrated, one thing is undeniable: this dragon lady possesses great personal charm.

Her ideals, kindness, and actions attracted and moved groups of people with the same ideals to gather around her and follow her, which is why the [Reunion Movement] was born.

"That's really high praise..."

Chapter 141 Discussion

"That's really high praise..."

After sighing, Fumizuki narrowed her eyes slightly and said meaningfully, "I saw that little Griseo and your older sister went shopping for quite a few things earlier. Do you need Auntie to help you carry them home?"

"Hmm... no need for complicated transportation, I can just take it back with me." Griseo shook her head slightly in refusal after hearing Fumizuki's words.

"...?"

Upon receiving Griseo's unexpected reply, Fumizuki, who had been gently probing, couldn't help but be taken aback, and a question mark appeared above her head.

No, you're just taking it back?? How are you going to take it?

To be honest, Fumizuki had initially assumed that Griseo's people would gradually transport the large quantity of supplies she purchased in Lungmen through caravans or other means... but now it seems that wasn't the case?

After thinking for a moment, Fumizuki stopped her brainstorming session before continuing, "Take her back directly... Little Griseo, can you tell Auntie how you plan to take her?"

"Uh???) Just draw the thing in the painting, then seal it up and take it with you..." Griseo said seriously without changing her expression when they got to the crucial part of the conversation.

"!"

Griseo's words immediately surprised Fumizuki. Then, because of her position, she also thought of many other things.

For example, she realized the strategic significance of the cute little guy in front of her on the battlefield and in operations. Although she didn't know the upper limit of this ability yet, she believed that she could definitely take all the supplies she bought this time, otherwise she wouldn't have bought so many at once.

Moreover, Fumizuki's intuition told her that Griseo's abilities might be far more than that...

It's a pity, but not entirely a pity. Fumizuki is sure that if Griseo had met her in the first place, she would have definitely found a way to keep her here.

Of course, it's fine for him to stay with Little Tal now, especially with such a supportive attitude.

"Is there a limit to how many drawings Griseo can keep?" Coming back to her senses, Fumizuki continued to ask, "If you can still bring them, Auntie can help you buy some more things so you can take them back to Little Tal."

"Nothing has been found yet... As long as my strength hasn't run out, I can continue drawing." Upon hearing this, Griseo gently shook her little head and explained.

Although the answer was somewhat vague, the little girl wasn't trying to fool anyone. Her ability was that the stronger the "thing" she sealed away or the more energy it contained, the greater her energy consumption would be.

But simply drawing some supplies into a painting was a piece of cake for her, requiring almost no effort. She could draw as much as she could get.

As for her own abilities, Griseo didn't intend to reveal too much to Fumizuki, adopting a "I won't tell you unless you ask" approach, and if asked too much, she would give vague answers and let others guess.

After all, she said all this simply so she could easily get some things from Lungmen to take back to Talulah; there was no need for anything more.

"Oh, I see. Then Auntie will have to prepare well in the coming days." Hearing Griseo's reply, Fumizuki's eyes flashed with understanding, and then she smiled gently at her.

"Alright, stop chatting with me, the food will get cold soon."

"Um..."

After finishing her meal, Griseo chatted with Fumizuki about some interesting things about the Reunion Movement that this little girl reasonably knew, then rubbed her eyes and prepared to go to bed.

On one hand, the little girl's good sleep schedule kicked in, and she was really sleepy when it was time to go to bed.

On the other hand, she realized that if she didn't rest, Wei Yenwu really wasn't planning on coming back.

At first, Griseo could think it was a coincidence, but as time went on, she realized she wasn't stupid. She almost didn't need to guess to know that Wei Yenwu was 99.9% being sent away by his wife. She didn't know exactly what he was doing, but she was quite certain of that.

The little girl has already revealed so much, and to give the couple some time to discuss things, she thinks it's best to leave as soon as possible.

Ah~
