Outside the hospital.

The head of the family and the eight elders came together.

It can be seen from this that the news that Chonghua has returned alive from the Tianshu Ruins should be shocking.

"What about others?"

Xuanyuan Wuyu looked to be about sixty years old, wearing a dark green delicate robe, with a simple jade pendant hanging from his waist, and he looked like the one with the highest status in this group.

This is the courtyard of Xuanyuan Yuanliang's family, although Xuanyuan is the head of the family, but the people don't know him.

After all, there is no TV in Taiweiyuan.

The guards didn't know Xuanyuan Wuyu, but they vaguely recognized several of the eight elders, so after hearing Xuanyuan Wuyu's seemingly endless question, the guards were immediately stunned in place, not knowing how to answer at all.

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Yuanliang had to immediately walk out of the back of the team, and then quickly whispered: "Confused, what did the head of the family ask you about? Why don't you answer? Where is that kid Chonghua?"

After hearing the reprimand of the head of the family, the guard replied with a sudden understanding: "Back to the master, the second son has been staying in the second lady's room since he came back, and he hasn't gone anywhere......"

"Alright, get out of here. ”

The Xuanyuan family is very large.

If you have to describe it, in fact, you can see the Xuanyuan family as a county seat.

The head of the family is the county magistrate, and the eight elders are the mayors of each township.

Now that the county magistrate is here, it is understandable that the people below are a little lazy.

Don't look at Xuanyuan Yuanliang's majesty all day long, but in front of the head of the family, he is also like a sycophant who can only nod his head.

And this is the characteristic of Taiweiyuan.

i.e. –

Feudal hierarchy.

Under the provisions of this system, the authority of the head of the family is absolutely inadmissible.

Fortunately, Xuanyuan Wuyu seems to be in a good mood today.

So after hearing the guard's answer, Xuanyuan Wuyu didn't show any intention to blame, and after waving his hand casually, he strode into the courtyard.

Seeing this, the people who accompanied him also followed him one after another, and rushed into the courtyard in a swarm.

At this time, Chonghua had also heard the movement outside the house.

After motioning for his mother not to get up, he went to the door on his own, and pushed the door open.

That moment.

All eyes were on him.

This is the youngest son of Xuanyuan Yuanliang's family-

Xuanyuan Chonghua.

A little kid who hasn't even been crowned yet.

If it weren't for Chonghua's successful return alive from the Tianshu Ruins, most of the people here might have forgotten that Xuanyuan Yuanliang still has such an 'excellent' young son.

"Hua'er, why don't you kneel down and salute?!"

According to Taiweiyuan's custom, the coronation ceremony, which is also known as the coming-of-age ceremony, can be held when you reach the age of twenty.

And before the coronation ceremony was held, juniors like Chonghua were not even qualified to step into the ancestral hall of the clan.

In the past, when the clan was in the meeting, Chonghua often ran outside the venue with his peers in the clan to peek, so he knew both the head of the family and the rest of the elders.

Therefore, after Chonghua heard Xuanyuan Yuanliang's reminder, he immediately stopped on the steps, and then bowed to the people in the courtyard and saluted with fists: "Chonghua is here, greeting the head of the family, my father, and all the elders!"

There is nothing wrong with Chonghua's words.

But there was clearly something very wrong with his behavior.

In front of the head of the family, Chonghua, as a mere junior, has a gift of not kneeling?

What a sin of disrespect!

Xuanyuan Yuanliang saw all this in his eyes, but his father could only be in a hurry, and he didn't dare to remind him at all.

Could it be that he still wants to remind the head of the family to punish Chonghua's great disrespect?!

Xuanyuan Yuan's conscience was very anxious.

That's because he didn't know that Chonghua had changed......

Chonghua has been by Chen Xi's side for too long, and he has also lived in modern society for so long.

So unconsciously, Chonghua's perception of the world has changed a lot.

'They are also human beings, are they all equal......

'What's the big deal about just having a meal?'

'Come, come, sit down and eat together, and taste my craft......

Qin Yuqing didn't allow the two of them to step into the inner courtyard for half a step, but Chen Xi opened his mouth and let the two of them sit directly at the dinner table.

This is just a small thing, but this little thing left a deep impression on Chonghua.

From daily food and daily life, to talking and recreational in his spare time, Chen Xi's every move affects him and Yizhi almost all the time.

The reason why no anomalies were found before was because the two of them had not returned to Taiweiyuan.

It is precisely because of this that after Chonghua came back this time, he found that he seemed to be a little out of place with the things around him.

It's not that he doesn't know how to be polite.

I just don't want to kneel.

'What are you doing on your knees?' Stand up, haven't you heard of gold under a man's knees? Stand up straight. ’

This moment.

Chonghua had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

So much so that he even began to miss the earth a little.

Xuanyuan didn't know what Chonghua was thinking.

What's more, he didn't know what Chonghua was thinking at all.

"No courtesy, Yuan Liang leads the way, talk in a different place. ”

Xuanyuan Wuyu came here today for a purpose, so he didn't bother to waste too much time on these side matters.

With an order, the head of the family asked Xuanyuan Yuanliang to take everyone to sit in the main hall of the other courtyard in turn.

Then, in front of everyone present, Chonghua repeated everything he had just said to Zhang.

Roughly the same reaction as Zhang's.

After everyone heard Chonghua say that he had been living in Mr. Chen's house during this time, the expression on his face was as wonderful as it was.

After Chonghua gave a general account of his experience, he stood aside and waited for the head of the family to ask questions.

After a deep groan, the head of the family frowned and asked softly, "That is to say, ......"

"Mr. Chen has already put you in the doorwall?"

It's no wonder that everyone understands it this way.

After all......

It's not the Earth.

Except for Chen Xi, who would put the captives in their own homes and provide them with good food and drink?

"Uh......"

"When I go home, Mr. Chen didn't take me as a disciple......"

"He just let me live in his house, and when I had nothing to do, he would give me a few or three words......

Chonghua tried to explain.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Wuyu replied with a sudden realization: "I think it's because the cultivation of the two of you is too low, and Mr. Chen is afraid that the two of you will lose his face, so he didn't give you the title of master and apprentice......"

"If that's ......"

"You really can't claim to be an apprentice. ”

As soon as these words came out, the eight elders suddenly seemed to have figured out something, and couldn't help but nod their heads and echo: "The head of the family is reasonable. ”

Seeing that this misunderstanding was getting bigger and bigger, Chonghua hesitated for a moment, but finally forcibly swallowed back the words that had been said to his lips.

Anyway, there's nothing wrong with being Mr. Chen's apprentice.

Since everyone has to understand it like this, he can only let it go.

It's a big deal to go back and explain it to Mr. Chen, anyway, he didn't lie around with Mr. Chen......

Chonghua thought that he had a clear conscience, so he didn't dwell on this issue.

Since Xuanyuan had asked everything he should have asked, and everything he should have understood, Chonghua estimated that they should also leave, so he left the main hall with great interest.

Of course, he didn't go far, but waited silently outside the house, so that he would have to give the elders a ride later.

Chonghua stood bored outside the door and waited.

But at this moment, his name rang coldly in the main hall.

"Yuanliang, you really gave birth to a good son. ”

"This kid is called Chonghua, isn't he?"

"What is the eight characters of the birthday?

"It just so happens that the old man has a niece, who is twenty-eight years old and ...... in the boudoir"

"I don't know, Yuanliang, are you willing to marry the old man?"

That moment.

Chonghua only felt that he was drenched from his head to his feet by a basin of cold water.

Before Xuanyuan Yuanliang could reply, his whole person was like an electric shock, and he rushed into the main hall, and then shouted at everyone in front of the head of the family: "Don't !!"
