Volume 1: Dream and Reality Chapter 243 Non-Tigers Don't Go Up the Mountain
Cheng Ruan led Shen Yuan, passed through the ancient village and the crowd of druids onlookers, and came to the front of this wide courtyard, she pointed to the open gate of the courtyard and said, "This is my house, I'll go and clean up a guest room for you." ”
Shen Yuan raised his eyes to look at the unique courtyard in this ancient village, and pretended to be amazed and said, "Hey, big family." ”
Cheng Ruan smiled, and while leading Shen Yuan inward, he said: "My father is the patriarch of the Druid clan this term, and this courtyard is also handed down in one line, not unique to my family, I used to live in a wooden building in the south, I have time to take you to see it." ”
Shen Yuan nodded thoughtfully, and without waiting for him to say anything, a short and fat old man with a happy face came out of the courtyard, wearing a brown Tang costume embroidered with ancient coins, looking extremely wealthy.
The short and fat old man walked quickly towards the two of them, and said with a smile: "Miss, you are back, the old lady has been talking about you for more than half a month." ”
"Uncle Chen, I miss you so much. Cheng Ruan smiled like a flower, squeezed Shen Yuan's hand, and introduced: "Shen Yuan, this is Uncle Chen's housekeeper." Uncle Chen, this is my friend, Shen Yuan. ”
Steward Chen arched his hand to Shen Yuan with a smile and said, "Shen Gongzi, I have admired the name for a long time, Madame has prepared a guest room for Gongzi, please come with me." ”
Cheng Ruan led Shen Yuan behind Steward Chen, who was leading the way, and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, my mother already knew that he was back?"
It wasn't too long, but the young lady didn't get off the previous plane, and the lady was a little anxious, so she went out for a walk. Steward Chen leaned sideways and answered Cheng Ruan's question as he walked forward.
Cheng Ruan and Shen Yuan glanced at each other, and Shen Yuan showed a vague smile in his eyes, knowing that this courtyard was not easy to enter, and he was about to start when he got off the horse.
Steward Chen led the two to the innermost room of the wing room on the east side of the courtyard, and the one closest to the master bedroom, stood still in front of the wing, stretched out his hand to the closed door, and said slowly: "This room ......"
Shen Yuan's gaze swept over the closed door of this room, and then glanced at the second room next to him with the door wide open, knowing that the top room on the east side was probably not prepared for himself.
Sure enough, I heard Steward Chen say: "It was supposed to be prepared for Shen Gongzi, but on the second day of the Lunar New Year, a distinguished guest came to the door, and the family had to reserve it, and asked Shen Gongzi to understand Haihan." Madame told me that I must explain clearly to Shen Gongzi, and I must not let Gongzi feel neglected. ”
"Hehe, no, no, no. Shen Yuan smiled and waved his hand, never thinking that Steward Chen would really explain this matter very "clearly".
Steward Chen ignored Shen Yuan's move to interrupt this conversation, and continued: "The distinguished guest who came on the second day of the Lunar New Year is the Ji family's Ji Chigen Gongzi, who usually visits the door every three years and stays in the mansion. ”
Cheng Ruan's face changed suddenly, and the hand holding Shen Yuan tightened unconsciously, and he said almost silently: "Didn't he just come here last year?"
Steward Chen nodded, didn't pay attention to Cheng Ruan's question, and completed his own work with great loyalty, "Ji Gongzi is the fourth in the Qianxian Scroll, what is his family background, I believe that Shen Gongzi can know from his surname that the royal family is indescribably expensive." Over the years, Ji Gongzi's status in the Ji family has risen, and he has now taken over a considerable part of the affairs of the Ji family, and his martial arts skills are also extremely exquisite. ”
"It can be said that he is almost a sure choice of the prince, and Moyang Old Immortal also said so in the Hidden Immortal Scroll. ”
Shen Yuan nodded in understanding, such a person, who has a relationship with Cheng Ruan's family, is on the throne, and is strong, even the only hidden immortal scroll that Shen Yuan can show off is ranked one place lower than him, and he lives in the first room of the east wing, needless to say.
However, Steward Chen's explanation still didn't stop, so he continued: "The master of the Ji family and our Cheng family are world friends, and when the wife was pregnant for seven months, the ancestors of the two families pointed to the marriage, saying that the young lady would marry into the Ji family in the future. ”
Shen Yuan felt that the little jade hand in his hand had faded from two points of heat, and his breathing had become heavier, and he didn't need to look back, he knew that there should be a hidden anger in Cheng Ruan's eyes at this time.
The smile on Shen Yuan's face also faded, and he snorted lightly.
"It's just...... The two grandparents were not engaged, and there was a big difference. My family's engagement needed to take place in the Land of All Souls, and for various reasons, it didn't take place. ”
"This time, Miss and Ji Gongzi are both adults, Miss will graduate from Yulong Academy next year, and after completing her studies, she will return home, and it is time to put marriage on the agenda. And Ji Gongzi visited last year and this year, and the meaning is self-evident. ”
Steward Chen arched his hand to Shen Yuan, there was no smile on his happy face, but surprisingly serious, and continued: "That's the end of the explanation, Madam still has a sentence for me to bring to you." ”
You say. Shen Yuan nodded lightly and looked directly at Steward Chen.
"If you are not a tiger, you don't go up the mountain. ”
Steward Chen said, arched his hand again, led to the second room with the door open, and said, "This is Shen Gongzi's room, please." ”
Dropping such a sentence, Steward Chen bowed down and said goodbye, and left without looking back.
Shen Yuan...... Shen Yuan, listen to my explanation. Cheng Ruan walked around to Shen Yuan in a little panic, tears in his bright eyes, and he was both aggrieved and annoyed.
"You don't have to explain anything. Shen Yuan stretched out his hand and took Cheng Ruan's soft waist in his arms, patted her back gently, and gently comforted her.
"A stinky boy who doesn't have a marriage contract dares to disturb my good deeds, and his legs are discounted. ”
There was a sneer on the corner of Shen Yuan's mouth, but the words he said were ten out of ten like a reckless man.
Cheng Ruan's heart was tightened again after just two points of relaxation, and he quickly raised his head and said, "That's not good." ”
Shen Yuan's eyes changed, and his face stiffened, "What's the matter?
"That's not it, the problem is that he is the future emperor of the Red Empire, and you broke his leg...... In the future, it will be difficult to move an inch. ”
"Hmph, do you remember the sentence that Steward Chen brought?"
"But ......"
"It's not that the tiger doesn't go up the mountain, she's reminding me that if I can't defeat myself, I should leave now, and if I stay, I can't be afraid of any challenge. Dare to fight and dare to fight, in order to turn the disadvantage. I don't care, these days, whoever provokes me, I will beat him to death. ”
“……”
Cheng Ruan had tens of millions of wisdom in his heart, but now he only felt that his mind was a mess, and he didn't know how to deal with this sudden situation, and he was a little speechless for a while, but he instinctively felt that Shen Yuan's method was very inappropriate.
