Not wanting a mountain of dirty clothes to collect in her shifu’s cottage, Anji returned to the table and started preparing several talismans similar to the ones she drew earlier in Researcher Yang’s backyard. Then, she went around and found a small tub and basket that would work. The only problem was the lack of ashes. Anji would have to ask Aunt Wine for some tomorrow. For tonight, she could only wash them with heated water.
Setting up her personal laundry system outside with the help of a few lamps for light, Anji tossed her dirty clothes in and activated the talismans. It would take some time for the washing to finish. Hence, Anji went back indoors and started writing her letter.
Anji wanted to write to so many people. However, there was limited paper on the table. Hence, she had to prioritise. Would it be appropriate to request more papers, especially those suitable for talismans? After all, Anji will become a chore expert in the next few weeks. She could not imagine doing chores by hand if every researcher’s yard looked like Researcher Yang’s.
Sitting down, Anji prepared the ink and instantly missed her charcoal pencils. Although Pearl tried to find her the smallest brush, it was still too big for Anji. The ink splattered easily as she was too short, and the blotched strokes made her handwriting look clumsy.
After fifteen minutes of struggle, Anji finally filled one page full of words and addressed her parents, Lizi, and older sister. Knowing they would be full of worries if they knew what happened today, Anji cleverly omitted the part where she was bullied and injured. Instead, she reassured them that she was coping well while the climate was different.
Although the Mystical Qilin Sect was technologically advanced, it still lacked certain things that the Celestial Dragon Sect had. Anji wondered if her family would be able to courier such things. Her shifu should not mind. After all, those were things that Anji grew up with and needed.
Adding in the last line as a final thought, Anji requested a few seeds so she could grow them while in the Mystical Qilin Sect. Anji specified the persimmon seeds and herbs she requested. Those were important. Although she could not continue cultivating her persimmon shrub or see it becoming a tree, she still wanted to continue growing a spiritual plant. Grandpa Jin told her that if she could successfully grow a spiritual plant, she could undo one more seal on her golden core.
Putting the brush down, Anji let the ink on her letter dry while going back outside to check on the clothes. After confirming that they weren’t as dirty as Anji thought, she emptied the tub and stuck them into a spinning basket that would dry them quickly.
In less than ten minutes, Anji had a new uniform and clothes ready for tomorrow. Satisfied, she tidied everything away and headed back indoors, turned off the lamps and jumped to bed.
Tired from all the physical work, Anji fell asleep in less than ten breaths.
