Chapter 557: Chivalry
Naturally, the family banquet will never engage in any pomp and circumstance, but a large round table is full of all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and the family can sit at the table to eat happily.
Since the news of Shen Sanqian's death came to the setting sun, this was the first time that the Shen family manor had such a lively scene.
The eldest lady must be the most embarrassing and emotional character in this one, there is a saying that the world is impermanent, only after experiencing some things in person, can you understand the deep feeling of ups and downs.
The Shen family has gone from the ups and downs of half a month ago to the current family being able to sit here to eat and chat lively, who can they talk to about the bitterness and speechlessness?
Chu Xianzhao still smiled brightly and talked to Shen Chuxia without any words, Shen Chuxia kept eating in Chu Xianzhao's bowl, if it weren't for his particularly eye-catching white hair, everyone would treat the three of them as real brothers and sisters,
The other sisters of the eldest lady also sat upright at this time, and the guilt on their faces still could not dissipate, as if they were not the ones who had proposed to leave the manor earlier.
Although she didn't know whether it was a wise or foolish choice to leave them behind, her sisters couldn't bear to watch them wander away, and now with Chu Xianzhao's backbone, Wei Jing's property after his death was all back to their hands, and the business bank would never have a huge leakage like in the past, and it could be regarded as everything returning to the right path before Shen Sanqian left the sunset.
As for the cold and glamorous woman sitting on Chu Instant's left, the eldest lady couldn't help but feel jealous, especially the murderous aura that emanated from her body was definitely not something that ordinary women could have, and the nameless people who were transferred to the business house by Chu Instant's call made her dare not underestimate it.
She was worried about destroying the trust between her and Chu Xianzhao, so she didn't send someone to investigate the whereabouts of those people, anyway, no matter how they looked at them, they looked like outlaws, if it weren't for the nepotism between them and Chu Xianzhao, she would never let these murderous guys enter the business house.
They are different from Wei Jing who is willing to endure and can play with the underworld, if Wei Jing was not forced to have no way out by Chu Xuan, he would never tear his face with them.
As for these fanatics of unknown origin, as long as Chu instantly summoned an order, they would dare to kill anyone, and there was no bottom line at all.
Fortunately, she didn't make a fuss about the child at first, and now she finally realized the feeling of repaying the grace of a drop of water with a spring.
The eldest lady raised her glass with a smile and said directly: "Today is our Shen family's family banquet, but there are still some things to say, that is, from today onwards, all the affairs of the Shen family will be handed over to Tang Huang in the future, and my old wife will also retire to enjoy the blessings." ”
Everyone present also expected that Chu Xianzhao would take over the position of head of the family sooner or later, but the shock on his face was still difficult to hide.
They are now in a situation where they are both prosperous and loss-making with Chu Xianzhao, and going against him is actually going against the entire Shen family, and then they can't get along with themselves, even if a woman like the Gao family hasn't given him any good looks since he entered the Shen family, she doesn't dare to keep a straight face in front of him, especially when she heard the eldest lady say that she wanted him to move into Shen Sanqian's study in the past, she could only smile helplessly, and the smile was more grateful to him for taking over the burden of the family.
Hearing this, Chu Xianzhao was not overjoyed, only the calm smile on the corner of his mouth.
The eldest lady said: "In the future, you will live in the courtyard before the master, and I will ask the next person to clean up the room for you in a while, and send all your things to the master's former study." ”
Chu Xianzhao couldn't help but say, "Auntie, let me live there, will it be a little overstepping, right?"
The eldest lady shook her head and said: "I don't know if Huayu told you that there is a lock dragon well in that courtyard, and the legend is that there is a dragon suppressed in it, and occasionally there is the sound of a cow roaring, and the well water has a fragrance of aging, which corresponds to the Fulong well in the palace, and is in the position of occupying the north and facing the south." ”
"What do you mean?"
"Now that you are the head of the Shen family, you should naturally live in this courtyard, I don't need you to be a rich businessman like when my lord was young, I want to use the dragon qi in the locked dragon well to raise a royal spirit, and be a hero who makes outsiders feel awe when they see you, even the royal family of the Zhao family dare not violate the bottom line of our family!"
Chu Xianzhao could only smile bitterly and agree.
The eldest lady smiled, and then said: Tang Huang, is there a girl who can be seen in the sunset, let us tell you the matchmaker. ”
Chu Xianzhao was a little stunned, Shen Huayu kicked him lightly, he immediately understood, and said with a smile: "I don't have the idea of marrying a wife for the time being, this matter can be slowed down, I have my sisters and sisters with me on weekdays, and my life is quite comfortable." ”
Shen Chuxia, who usually has a gentle personality, blushed after hearing her words, lowered his head and didn't dare to look at his eyes.
Mrs. Sun seemed to see the small movements between the three of her daughters, and couldn't help but smile: "Huayu, don't always pester your brother to make small moves, delaying him to marry a wife and have children, be careful that I marry you out first." ”
"Woo, my mother doesn't want me anymore, I'm a poor child that no one wants. ”
Shen Huayu didn't care about it, hugged Chu Xianzhao's arm, and looked at him pitifully, causing the people at the table to laugh.
"I finally understand why you didn't come with us here, although it is much more dangerous here in the setting sun than in the country of Yin, but at least you are free. ”
Jiang Tang said such a sentence in a voice that only Chu Xianzhao could hear.
Chu Xuan poured a glass of wine into her cup, and said with a smile on his face: "Those who know me, Jiang Tang also." ”
"But they are not your relatives after all, and they may have to bear the price of being your relatives. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Chu was stunned.
Jiang Tang didn't explain anything, and drank the glass of wine that Chu Zhao poured for her, revealing a smile that was incomprehensible.
——
Tang State, Qinglian Sword Sect.
Recently, the junior uncle in the Sword Sect was a little unhappy, because the sixth senior brother and the seventh senior sister had gone down the mountain, and there were few people in the Sword Sect who could talk to him.
As the two strongest in the younger generation of the Qinglian Sword Sect, the seventh senior sister specially instructed him to take a good break to practice swordsmanship before leaving, and not to be lazy and fishing, anyway, the seventh senior sister has a wooden temperament, and the truth she said is like that, but she still likes to listen to it, even those masters and uncles can't talk about her, but the little senior uncle is still very reluctant to let the sixth senior brother leave the Sword Sect, and he is reluctant to let the sixth senior brother leave.
The master told him that the two senior brothers and sisters went down the mountain to represent their Qinglou Sword Sect to go to Luoyang to participate in the martial arts event, and if one of the two of them could win the championship, the future would be limitless.
Listening to the tone of the masters and uncles, it seems that this martial arts move is very important, and it is necessary to go.
They also told themselves that if their swordsmanship was as powerful as the Sixth Senior Brother in ten years, their Qinglian Sword Sect would send someone to participate in the next martial arts event.
But he was still very unhappy, lying on the big bluestone on the mountain behind the sect, pillowing the sixth senior brother personally beating "Liu Bai" for him, and sticking a leaf to his forehead with a depressed expression.
A green-shirted swordsman came from the southeast, with a slender sword hanging from his waist, a sword wrapped in white cloth on his back, a grass root pulled from the river in his mouth, and his banine shoes were covered with mud, and he gently hummed a song of baked cakes that he had sung since he was a child.
This person was singing and clapping his hands to cheer up, which could be described as boring, and he couldn't tell at all that he was Li Duzun, who was known as the person who carried the Ding of the contemporary Qinglian Sword Sect.
After Li Duzhu and his sister Li Yaoyao said goodbye to their senior brother and master, they went down the mountain all the way to the north, out of the Tang Kingdom, across Zhejiang and Han into Qingguo, and the two went to participate in the decade-old martial arts event.
"Listen to me sing eighteen touch, reach out to touch my sister's sideburns, the red cloud flew half the sky, reach out and touch the front of my sister's head......"
After singing the song of baked cakes, Li Duzhu hummed a little song he heard when he passed by a certain green building in the Tang Kingdom.
Although he is known as a century-old talent of the Sword Sect with a sword like a god, he likes to sing more than practice swords on weekdays.
This Li Duzun, who has read the supreme sword book and practiced superb swordsmanship, did not feel how unbearable this Qinglou minor tune was, but he was a little playful and chic when he solicited customers.
The girl behind her, who was wearing a green shirt like Li Duzun, seemed to have a compelling heroic spirit between her eyebrows, and her appearance was even more dusty.
Li Duzhu had no taboos in the face of this junior sister, and said happily: "When we stayed in that Qinglou before, that good-hearted sister taught me to sing this song, I think that sister has a good background and is pitiful, so I gave her the money in my pocket, and forgot to leave us some money to take a boat to Luoyang, thinking about helping people kill horse bandits on the road to earn some travel expenses, but I didn't expect that the security of this Qingguo is really too good to be a mess, and there is not even a thief who robs money, so I can only grieve my sister You and I went to Luoyang." ”
Because Senior Brother Lu Idiot couldn't find the restaurant, Li Yaoyao, who lived in the Qinglou for the first time in his life, was angry, and said angrily: "Senior brother, we are going to participate in the martial arts event on behalf of the Qinglian Sword Sect, can you put on the spirit of a disciple of the Sword Sect, and if you sing it again, the face of the Sword Sect will be lost." ”
Li Duzhu said with a hippie smile: "Senior sister, I am embarrassed in front, and you pick up your face behind, we are a pair set by heaven and earth." ”
Li Yaoyao's face was expressionless, and twelve flying swords flew out of his waist, pointing directly at Li Duzhu's head.
Li Duzhu hurriedly begged for mercy: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I have been facing me like this since I was a child, and I will bully my senior brother, who must be the enemy of my previous life." ”
Li Yaoyao withdrew the flying sword, snorted coldly, and said, "You are younger than me." ”
"So what, I'm still your senior brother, junior sister, call out senior brother to listen!"
The woman in the green shirt began to practice the closed mouth again.
Li Dujun didn't look back, and said to himself: "I heard from the master, twenty years ago, the Qinglian Sword Sect was kicked out by a swordsman from the Northern Regions, this person is Guan Changye, who is known as the Sword God of the West by the world, you said that if we go back to twenty years ago and meet such an opponent, can we defeat him?"
Even if he didn't get an answer, Li Duzhu was not angry and continued: " Back then, the two-handed sword that the sword god in the south of the land had never been good at, and Li Kuidou, our uncle, finally defeated him, and later the battle in the city with Qing'an Longxian, it can be regarded as a wonderful hand that the heaven and the earth are all working together, in fact, in my opinion, there are too many flaws in the two-handed sword, that is, a swordsmanship monster like Guan Changye can control it, if you let others use it, and you encounter the Qinglian swordsmanship that is only fast and unbreakable, it will be difficult to escape death, junior sister, do you say this is the reason?"
The green-shirted swordsman with a long sword wrapped in cloth behind him still didn't answer, and still said in pieces: " Speaking of which, I am only six months younger than you, but I entered the Sword Sect six months earlier than you, I still remember the morning when you were taken up the mountain by the master, I was happy that I had a junior sister, holding a small wooden sword in my hand for you as a meeting gift, I don't know if you like it or not, now I think about it is the same as what happened yesterday, in fact, you are much more diligent than me, and I can enter the hall purely by relying on the body of the sword embryo, if you also have the qualifications of me, maybe the master's "too white" The owner is you, and I don't say this to show off anything to you, but I miss the time when we rode a bull and practiced swords when we were children. I was stupid, what did I give you a little girl wooden sword for, I should have given me the jade pendant that my mother gave me before she died, but she told me that this piece of jade was going to be given to my daughter-in-law, and I didn't know if I would like you in the future, so I didn't give it away......"
Listening to Li Duzhu's heartfelt words, Li Yaoyao's expression softened a lot, the corners of his mouth hooked a fleeting arc, and the ponytail and green silk drifted wantonly in the breeze.
Li Duzhun, who had not had a stick of incense for a long time, turned to her and said with a hippie smile: "Senior sister, do you know why the senior brothers like to watch your sword dance?"
Li Yaoyao replied seriously: "I don't know, but I feel that your eyes are weird, and I won't show you the sword next time." ”
"It's good if you don't know, but if you know, you'll be in trouble......"
Li Duzhu looked at the turbulent scenery on her chest quietly, couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, remembering her dancing posture in a light gauze sword, and the scenery on her chest also rippled.
No wonder the eighth senior brother said that he was willing to watch her live for ten years with a sword dance, and asked himself which of the sixth senior sister's breasts or steamed buns was softer than the steamed buns.
He thought to himself that this is not nonsense, if Lao Tzu can touch it every day, do you still need to accompany you unlucky boy here to eat steamed buns?
In fact, a long time ago, the Qinglian Sword Sect regarded Li Duzhu and Li Yaoyao as a natural pair.
Both of them are childhood sweethearts of the Sword Sect disciples, and their ages are almost the same, and the Qinglian Sword Sect has been intermarried with the same disciple for hundreds of years, and the parents of many children on Sword Mountain are brothers and sisters with each other, and it is very rare for Li Yaoyao and Li Duzhu to be brought from the mountain by the master, and it is no wonder that they are ridiculed by the same brothers and sisters as golden boys and girls.
Such a beautiful ridicule made the hearts of these two parties already unfazed, as for their master, he also had a natural attitude towards this, neither supporting nor opposing, and would never believe in the statement of the red face and chaotic sword heart like some unpopular sword sects.
The way of sword cultivation is often intentionally planting flowers and flowers, and unintentionally planting willows and willows, and the relationship between men and women is not harmful to the practice of swordsmanship, and in more cases, it will benefit a lot.
As for Li Yaoyao, he likes to fight with Li Duzhu in the Qinglian Sword Sect, in addition to practicing swords, teaching other junior brothers and sisters to practice swords, or going to the kitchen to cook a few pieces of baked cakes for the brothers and sisters to eat.
That's how Li Duzhu's baked cake song came, eating the baked cakes she made and singing the songs she made, I heard that her family used to make baked cakes, and when she just stood up, she had already learned to make baked cakes, anyway, he had eaten the baked cakes under the mountain and it was not as delicious as Li Yaoyao's cooking, and he never ate it for more than ten years.
Other swordsmen would like to take a sip of wine before they die, but Li Duzun may have wanted to eat a piece of the baked cake she made.
The sentence that there is wine and laughter when he dies, and when he arrives, it should become a baked cake to laugh.
In his opinion, Li Yaoyao, who makes baked cakes, always looks a little better than her when she practiced swords.
"Senior sister, if I am accidentally slaughtered by a very powerful swordsman in the future, I will not sacrifice wine in front of my grave on the Qingming Festival, make a few pieces of baked cakes and put them aside, and then put on a red gauze sword dance, not to mention how refreshing it is. ”
After Li Yaoyao snorted a few times, he frowned and said, "Bad luck, shouldn't we want to defeat our opponents in martial arts now?
The conversation between the two became more and more inconsequential, not at all like the swordsmanship experience of the Sword Sect disciples who talked about it, saying those bold words that cut off the world's heroes with one sword, but like those old husbands and wives, they pulled at home, and said something that had nothing to do with martial arts.
"Hehe, I was said by my junior sister, I still live to see that your sword dance is more combative, and I can't feel anything when I die, it's not cost-effective, I said it, if I win the championship in this martial arts move, junior sister, you have to put on a red veil for my sword dance, and I have to apply a little rouge, don't do too much, you know I don't like women with heavy makeup, and there is ......"
"You're beautiful!"
Li Yaoyao raised his hand and patted his head gently.
Li Duzhu smiled, grabbed her waist with a clench, and threw out the long sword in his hand at the same time.
The two swordsmen went away in the sky above the cherry blossom forest covering an area of 10,000 acres, and the wind blew the cherry petals and flew high.
The world's swordsmanship, only fast is not broken.
This is the iron rule engraved on the giant monument by the ancestor of the Qinglian Sword Sect, and in terms of the fastest sword, there is no faster sword in the world than the sword used in the hands of the swordsmen of the Qinglian Sword Sect.
Li Duzun rested his chin on her shoulder and said with emotion: "The two of us are a natural pair of immortal couples, I heard that the Xilin Sword God and Qing'an Longxian used to be a couple, but we will not be forced to separate by the conspiracy of those temple families like them, the leader of this martial arts move, I will fight for you no matter what, and then tell the entire Nanlu rivers and lakes and even the world, your Li Yaoyao's man is also not inferior to the Xilin Sword God of the year." ”
Listening to her sweetheart's words, Li Yaoyao, who is not smiling on weekdays, smiled slightly, Allure is not inferior to the Qing'an Dragon Immortal back then.
The man will go into the wine and will not stay for a thousand miles.
