Chapter 167: Winning the Second Master's Trust
Jinghua shook her head, "You can think of me, how could they not think of me." Pen %Fun %www.biquge.info" she chuckled, "Come to think of it, get that pastry, and you will suspect me." β
"That ......"
"But, I went into retreat." Jinghua took a bite of the pastry and raised her eyebrows slightly, this pastry is delicious.
"You're saying they don't think you're in retreat?" Chun Tao felt that this reason was too far-fetched, and it was really unseemly. How can anyone feel that it is not the other party's because the other person is in retreat?
Jinghua looked affirmative, "Don't believe it, that's the reason." β
"What reason is Little Flower talking about?" Before Jing Hua could explain in detail, Jing Chengyi's voice rang out. He walked directly to Jinghua from the courtyard entrance, sat down at the stone table, took a snack in his hand, and took a bite, "Yo, this snack tastes good!" β
Jinghua raised her eyebrows, although she didn't have anyone to come to this courtyard, and the slaves were also sent away by her, leaving only Chun Tao, but she remembered that Yi Ning would always guard it. He looked at the person in front of him and sighed again, other people's people are not easy to use after all!
"Isn't the second uncle chatting with grandpa?" Jinghua waved her hand and motioned for Chun Tao to go down and prepare tea.
Jing Chengyi didn't care, "I've been chatting with the old man for a long time, so I'll come and talk to you." β
"Huh?" Jing Hua was a little puzzled, what did Jing Chengyi want to say to herself.
Of course, she wouldn't think that Jing Chengyi was just here to chat!
Obviously, Jing Chengyi and Jing Yue must have come to some conclusion after chatting, and this conclusion made Jing Chengyi need to come to himself to verify it.
Thinking of this, Jinghua frowned slightly, but instantly showed her face, "That's a good feeling, what does the second uncle want to talk about?" β
"Hmm......" Jing Chengyi didn't seem to expect Jing Hua to open his mouth to himself with such an eyebrow, and he didn't think of any good entry point for a while, so he opened directly from the topic at lunch, "You said earlier that you would study Danfang, when will you refine Dan?" β
"I worshipped a good master." Jinghua shrugged her shoulders, saying that this matter was not her own credit, but was taught by her master.
"Oh, yes." It's like remembering it when it's been mentioned, "You still have a master." It's Xia Lao. β
Xia Lao's reputation is indeed very great, but in Anxi Valley, in fact, the most important thing is his life-saving skills, not an elixir. After all, you have to take your life pills first.
Jing Hua could also see that Jing Chengyi didn't care about Xia Lao very much, and after thinking about it, he understood. In this world, although most people think that pills are important, Jing Chengyi probably belongs to the kind of people who don't rely on pills very much.
There's nothing wrong with that.
As far as Jinghua is concerned, he agrees with this practice of not relying on pills. So on the matter of Jing Chengyi, she still agrees very much.
"Second Uncle doesn't seem to use pills often." Jinghua smiled lightly.
Jing Chengyi nodded, Chun Tao came in from outside and poured him a cup of tea, he poured a cup, "It's not commonly used, and places like Anxi Valley don't really need it." β
Jinghua thought about it, although the more dangerous the place, the more accustomed people were to bring more pills. But a true cultivator, in fact, the more dangerous the place, the more he can't rely on the pill.
"That's right, it's best to survive on your own." What Jing Hua said was in agreement with Jing Chengyi's remarks.
Although there was no problem with this, Jing Chengyi was stunned when he heard it. How could this come out of the mouth of his niece?
Can a person's personality change so much?
Before the accident of the eldest brother and sister-in-law, Jinghua was not cowardly and incompetent, nor was she afraid of her hands and feet. But I was still young, and I couldn't see anything else. Later, something happened, and when I went to Lincheng, I found that this girl was too cowardly.
But how can a cowardly man say this?
"There is a sentence, the second uncle wants to ask you." If he hadn't heard this, Jing Chengyi would have to talk about it for a long time, but after listening to it, he only had one feeling, that is, he could talk to Jing Hua directly.
"Second uncle is polite, but it doesn't hurt to ask." Jing Hua was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that Jing Chengyi was planning to go straight.
"Over the years, the old man has been in retreat, but the second uncle has always known about your situation." Although it was straightforward, Jing Chengyi still didn't ask the question directly. He said this halfway, and then stopped.
But Jing Hua understood what Jing Chengyi wanted to ask.
What Jing Chengyi wanted to ask was nothing more than why he had changed his personality and something like that.
Jinghua took a deep breath, but felt a little difficult. Jing Chengyi is not like Su Wuyue, he directly knows that he is not from this world, nor is he as simple as Jing Lu, and naturally he is not one of those others who just asks casually.
Jing Chengyi wants to be sure that he is Jing Hua himself, but it is not so easy to explain.
"Since the second uncle knows about my situation, he didn't want to take me away once?" After thinking about it, Jinghua asked a question first.
Jing Chengyi had already explained this question to Jing Yue, but if that explanation was directly said to Jing Hua, it seemed a little inappropriate.
After all, it doesn't seem good to say that the other party is cowardly and that the other party is not good.
If it is an inconsequential person, he will say it, but after all, the other party is his own niece, and Jing Chengyi doesn't plan to say that.
"The place I'm staying in is more dangerous." Jing Chengyi's words admit that the Jing family in Lincheng is in danger. But his explanation was limited to the fact that Anxi Valley was more dangerous than Lincheng, and as for the reason for his character, he did not mention anything.
Jinghua nodded, as if she understood what Jing Chengyi said. "It's not safe to be in the city." She spread her hands, since the other party admitted that Lincheng was not safe, her own statement made some sense.
"You mean, you were pretending before?" Although Jing Chengyi could understand Jing Hua's words, he didn't believe it.
Feign?
Jing Chengyi really doesn't believe that Jinghua can pretend to be so good! Her own people are secretly protecting her, and there is no reason for her to pretend to be cowardly, ignorant, and incapable when she is alone! This doesn't make sense!
It seems that he has long known that Jing Chengyi will doubt himself, and Jing Hua did not explain too much, but just smiled lightly and said nothing.
Jing Hua's lack of a word made Jing Chengyi frown slightly, is this refusing to answer?
You've just been clearly skeptical, right? Why is it that Jinghua has no meaning to explain at all?
"If you don't behave well, I'll take you out of there." Jing Chengyi waited for a while and didn't wait for Jing Hua's answer, and after thinking about it, he spoke first. This sentence is not an explanation, but rather a clichΓ©.
Jinghua nodded, "I believe in the second uncle." There was sincerity in her eyes, as if she really fully believed what Jing Chengyi said. However, I didn't know that my second uncle knew about me at that time. β
