Chapter 199: The Peng Family
The Peng family is not everyone, but it is stronger than the ordinary rich merchant family, that is, the commonly known landlord, located in Pingyang County, is the lord of Pingyang County, and the head of the Peng family is the county lord.
Pingyang County is a rich city, whether it is water and soil or agriculture and commerce, it can be regarded as above the middle level of the Tianfan Continent, and it is completely two directions away from the capital where the emperor is located, so even if the royal family is red-eyed, there are not many opportunities to meddle, over time, as the lord of a county, the Peng family has become the real overlord, the Peng family has always been a family of warriors, and the high martial arts skills are not a problem in the entire Pingyang County. What's more, because of the birth of Peng Jihan and Peng Jihao, the twin linggen twins, the prestige of the Peng family in Pingyang County has reached a place that others cannot look up to.
Although the Peng family is the landlord of the land, but it is the enviable landlord of the landlord, the frequent fights in the inner house of other big families, and the property battles with the sons and daughters-in-law, the Peng family will never appear, because ah, the head of the Peng family also took a wife, gave birth to four sons, two daughters, amazing, it stands to reason that such a family should be forever happy and happy, but, since the year before, such a happy family has been shrouded in gloom, just because the head of the Peng family was injured, was injured by a high-level magical beast when he was training with his heirs, and this injury was more than a year.
In fact, this Peng family master is really unlucky, and it is not the time to be injured, if it was the heyday of the Peng Jihan brothers, a few healing pills were really nothing, but now? They were all abandoned deposits, and even the pills that were usually supplied by the sect were replaced with the lowest grades, not to mention others. There is no need to mention it to the senior brothers and sisters of alchemy, because they have already become the target of suppression from above, and in this selfish cultivation realm, self-protection is the best strategy. Therefore, no matter how anxious the Peng family brothers were, it was useless, they could only use their lowest-grade healing pill to extend their father's life, so that although the head of the Peng family would not be in danger of his life, he could not recover to his former health and strength.
Early in the morning, Mrs. Peng helped her husband, whose body was weakening, out for a walk in the yard, watching her husband's once strong body being tortured by old injuries into the appearance of a sick scholar, Mrs. Peng's heart was as painful as if it was tightly pinched by an invisible hand. Her majestic husband. Why is it the way it is today?
"Ahem...... Fish. Sit down and take a break, ahem...... Somewhat tired. After less than a cup of tea, the face of the head of the Peng family was already pale and pale. The purple lips trembled, and before he could say a word, he coughed again.
"But, master, you are ......" Mrs. Peng's eyes were red, her slender body trembled slightly, but her arms were strong to support her husband's body that was about to fall.
"Hehe, fish, it's okay, I'm really fine, you see. I...... "......Wanting to prove that his body is still good, the head of the Peng family stood up straight and wanted to stride a few steps to show it, but was interrupted by a violent cough.
"Master......" Mrs. Peng's eyes were full of tears and finally flowed, she regretted it at this moment, why did she let her husband and son go out that day despite being terrified, if she stopped it, there would be no later events, every time in the dead of night, she wanted to tear herself apart.
Touching his wife's tarnished jade hand, the Peng family's tender eyes appeared watery, his wife, he has been loved and spoiled all his life, and he has been spoiled by him, if one day, he is gone, her wife, what should be good? Will she be able to take good care of herself?
"Daddy, mother, those people are here again, say it's ......" Two handsome young men in green robes hurriedly came in from the gate of the courtyard, their tone was very anxious, but they fell silent after seeing their father's pale face, showing pain and regret.
"Xuanzhou, Lian Yi, you're back, why didn't you go to class today?" Erasing the sparkle from the corners of her eyes, Mrs. Peng said softly with a happy face.
Xuanzhou and Lianyi's eyes were full of sadness, and they strode over to their parents' side and helped their father sit down, "Daddy, are you feeling better today?" Looking at Daddy's face, they knew very well that Daddy's physical condition was getting worse day by day, but they still wanted to ask this, and wanted Daddy to say something better, although they knew that it was just self-deception, but they couldn't help but want to do it, because only by doing this, they could breathe normally, for the two of them, Daddy's body was the poison in their hearts, if they didn't want to get the heir of the brown bear as a pet animal that day, they wouldn't have hurt Daddy, and even ...... Their fathers were loving, their mothers were gentle, and they never blamed their brothers for their ignorance and cowardice, but their consciences were tormented like fire all the time.
"Much better, much better, ahem...... Do not worry...... Ahem......" The head of the Peng family smiled and reassured.
"Daddy, someone from this family is here, saying that he is going to enter our house, saying that he is ......" Speaking of this, Peng Xuanzhou didn't know how to continue, why can't everyone in the Peng family be as kind and generous as Daddy? Why do they always think of money and power as the first place?
It turns out that the Peng family, which has an enviable family style, is just a side branch of the Peng family, the head of the Peng family is just the concubine of the family, raised by his aunt since he was a child, and the year his aunt died was his weak crown gift, after the weak crown gift, he only stayed at home for half a month and resolutely separated out of the family, when he left, he was out of the house, so, even if he developed later, the people of the family did not dare to come and intervene, but now it is different, the pillars of their vein are about to collapse, but they left a huge family business, The people of the family began to want to get involved regardless of a qiē, on the surface they wanted to help control the family to avoid a family crisis, but their private thoughts were known to passers-by, which was shameful.
"It's okay, ahem...... As long as Daddy is there, they won't take anything away, so let Lu Ju come over and cough ....... ”
"Yes, Daddy." Xuanzhou respectfully responded and went out, and walked back after a while, followed by a middle-aged man over half a hundred years old, the man had a simple face, with a touch of gentleness and elegance in his eyes, he was the Guan Jialu Bureau of the Peng family.
"The head of the house. Madam. Lu Ju bowed respectfully.
"Ahem...... Lu Bureau, everything the head of the family asked you to do is ...... Ahem...... Is it done? ”
"The head of the family, one qiē has been completed." Lu Ju looked at the head of the Peng family with a deep worry in his eyes.
"Well, that's good. Ahem...... How many of my family are here today? With his hands on his thighs, the face of the head of the Peng family was still pale, as if he was not taboo at all about his family's thoughts.
"Five people, and ten guards were blocked by me, and the old lady and the old lady also came." Lu Ju's tone was a little irritable and not depressed, although when he followed the master, the master had already come out of his family, but he had never lived a poor life, but he could imagine the time when he was separated. The old lady and the old lady must have been snubbed as well. It's good now. As soon as I heard that something had happened to the master, I wanted to come to the door to fight the autumn breeze, hum. I really underestimate their Peng family, even if the old man really has three games and two shorts in the future, as well as the eldest young master and the second young master, where is the turn of the heartless family.
Thinking of the two brothers of the Peng family, Lu Ju's heart was also more firm, the two young masters had broken through the foundation building period, even the emperor did not dare to do anything to their Peng family at will, you are a small family, even if you give you a bear bile, I don't expect you to do that!
I heard that the old lady and the old lady were also coming. The faces of the Peng family and his wife changed, and there was hesitation between their eyebrows.
If it wasn't for the two old people who gave him some help when his mother was sick, perhaps, his mother would have left earlier, although when he left later, the two old people did not react, but for the help of these two old people, the Peng family still recognized.
"What did you two say?" Mrs. Peng spoke in place of her husband.
"No, I just said I wanted to see the master." said so, but the calculation in the eyes of the two couldn't hide it, Lu Ju didn't say it clearly, he didn't want to stick another knife in the master's heart.
Xuanzhou and Lian Yi stood together, looked at each other, and then quietly withdrew, they wanted to see what these people were going to do! They have already sent a message to the eldest and second brothers in private, and they believe that they will rush back soon.
The brothers are proud of their brother.
"Third brother, fourth brother, why did you come out, the people in that family are too much, they actually came with luggage, saying that they will be a family with us in the future, it's just too shameless, don't live with them if you kill me." Two young ladies of seven or eight years old pouted and pulled their brother's sleeves indignantly.
Listening to the unanimous voice of the two younger sisters, Xuanzhou and Lian Yi also looked embarrassed, looking at the face of the father when he heard the second elder just now, I am afraid that the matter is not so easy to solve.
"Let's go to the hall and take a look, the third brother has already sent a message to the eldest brother and the second brother, I believe they will be able to come back soon." Xuanzhou comforted his sister, and then walked to the hall with Lian Yi.
"Hey, this thing is a good thing, the skins of high-level spirit beasts are used as mats, this Yuanji is really willing, hey, and this, this, my mother, this is the ribs of the demon cow, it's really a tyrannical thing, no, this Yuanji is really, such a good thing is not to share with the family, but it is placed here to entertain guests, it is really a conscienceless, when we meet, I have to talk about him." Before she could enter the hall, she heard the woman's voice coming from the hall, and the tone seemed as if everything here was her own.
The four brothers and sisters all frowned in unison.
When the scene in the hall came into view, Xuanzhou and Lian Yi were angry, only to see that the woman who spoke just now was actually stuffing the seats in their hall into the spirit beast car at the gate.
"Stop, you robbers!" Xuanzhou and Lian Yi shot out like lightning, and appeared on the side of the spirit beast car in the blink of an eye, and easily recaptured the animal skin seat, but when they were about to turn around and leave, they found that the spirit beast car was already stuffed with their family's porcelain carvings in just a short time.
"Alas...... What are you doing...... Dare to rob your eldest aunt's things, it's really an uneducated person, and I don't know how Brother Yuanji can teach you to be uneducated...... Ah......h
Seeing his wife hurt, even if he knows that it was his wife's fault. Qian Hui, as a husband, was also angry, "Damn, Xuanzhou Lianyi, why are you so uneducated now." This is your aunt. Qian Hui strode over and waved his hand to give the second son a few slaps.
"Woo...... I don't want to live anymore, the young master of the Peng family has beaten people...... Hit someone...... What kind of sin did I suffer, but I came to my brother's house and was beaten by my brother's son......" Seeing that her husband helped her out, the woman also began to cry and grab the ground.
Xuanzhou, Lian Yi just coldly hooked his lips at the husband and wife who were making this scene, dodged Qian Hui's movements, and dodged back to the hall, "Come on, keep an eye on these people for Ben Shao." If there are any more incidents of stealing. One less piece. You're the only one who asks! Xuanzhou didn't bother to look at the other people present, and after giving the order, the domestic servant appeared in the living room. He walked into the courtyard, as if he was polluting his eyes by looking at this family more.
The old lady and the old lady were shocked by the scene in front of them for a long time and did not react, and it happened too suddenly, they were not prepared, when their old couple and eldest daughter's family were all taken care of by the domestic servants, they knew that they were being monitored.
Xuanzhou and Lian Yi and the two angry girls were only halfway through when they saw their father who was supported by their mother and Lu Ju.
"Father, mother, we ......" recounted what had just happened, and the faces of the four siblings were full of indignation. The Peng family and his wife were not as excited as the children, but they sighed lightly, "That's it, forget it, but don't do it in the future, the four of you are all going back to your yard now, and you are not allowed to come out without permission." "In fact, with the temper of Mrs. Peng's family, when she encountered such a thing, she should have kicked people out early in the morning, but because of the arrival of the two old men, she also endured it, but she would not let the children go out to apologize, otherwise she would not be arrogant, this is not her style of a hot fish lady.
Knowing his wife's intentions, the head of the Peng family just hooked his lips and smiled dotingly, "Yes, you guys go back separately, cough cough ......"
"Yes, father." In front of their father, they were always absolutely obedient.
"Ahem...... What are you doing, stand down. Walking into the hall and seeing the eldest sister and the servant who were arguing non-stop, Mrs. Peng's eyes flashed with disgust and impatience, so she used the servant to remind the other party not to go too far.
"Ah, Brother Yuanji, brother and sister, you are here, I ......" The lady in the gorgeous shirt saw that the person she was waiting for had finally arrived, her eyes lit up, and she immediately came up.
However......
"Peng Yuanji meets the two ancestors." Peng Yuanji didn't pay attention to Peng Linna, but looked at the second elder on the seat and made a junior salute.
"Fan Yuer visited the two ancestors, and I wish the two ancestors a long and healthy life."
"Alas, good, good, come, come, Yuanji, Yu'er, sit." The two old men pulled out a kind smile and looked at Peng Yuanji's eyes shining, like four shining lanterns.
"Two ancestors, how are you doing all these years? Ahem...... Yuanji because of some things, cough cough...... I always don't have time to visit my ancestors, is it Yuanji's unfilial piety, or beg the two ancestors to forgive Yuanji, cough cough ......"
"No, no, hehe...... Our second elder has always had a good life, since you left the family, there has been no news of you, I miss you, I didn't expect it, over the years, you have grown so much, it is the blessing of my Peng family......" The old lady seems to be very emotional, but he secretly still involves his family, and when he speaks, the corner of his eyes has always focused on Yuanji's face.
"Huh...... The ancestor is strict, this is not the credit of Yuanji, it is the support of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, this qiē, if it were not for the help of his father-in-law and mother-in-law and the support of Yu'er, Yuanji would not have come to this day. Peng Yuanji skillfully avoided the topic of his own family.
"Yao'er, don't come to see your eleventh uncle yet." The old lady touched a soft nail, rolled his eyes, and glanced at the white-clothed young man next to him who had not spoken, so he opened his mouth as if he had just remembered.
"Yao'er has seen my uncle, my aunt." Peng Yao stepped forward and saluted, but there was no trace of respect on his arrogant face, in his opinion, an uncle of the side branch was really nothing, if it weren't for his father and mother saying that he could get a good meeting gift from this uncle of the side branch of Laoshzi, he would not have bothered to show up.
"Medicine? Oh, good, good. Peng Yuanji and his wife nodded with a smile, and they didn't mean to give a meeting gift at all, so Peng Yao, who had been silently waiting for the meeting gift, blocked his chest in one breath and was stunned.
"Oh, I said brother, brother and sister, why don't you invite us into the inner courtyard to sit, what's the matter with staying in the hall? We haven't stopped saluting yet, that, that big tall man, you come over and help Aunt Ben rest the salute in the car. Peng Lina greeted very familiarly.
"Wait." When the servants hesitated, Mrs. Peng opened her mouth with a cold face, "This lady, I think you are mistaken, we don't know you, why do we want to unload your luggage?" Little, Yingying, mixed the two old men into the pear orchard, and the others, threw them out! "Mrs. Peng's resolute behavior has always been hot, and there is no room for people to react.
"Ah, you dare, Mrs. Ben is the eldest girl of the Peng family, you dare to ......" The latter words have been far away, as for the rest of the father and son, they were thrown out together with red faces, even if they were angry in their hearts, they didn't dare to say much, just because they knew that this was someone else's territory, and from the mouth of the family who didn't get the benefits before but provoked a commotion back, they learned that this Mrs. Peng family is a master of the Dijie, and in terms of their skills, it is not enough to see at all.
"This ...... This ......" The second elder was so shocked by this formation that he couldn't close his mouth, and could only be stupidly mixed into the inner courtyard by the servants.
"The two ancestors came from afar, they must be tired, let's go to the guest room to rest first, and the fish will send the husband to rest first, and then come to serve the two ancestors for dinner."
Mrs. Peng's resoluteness once again played a role.
When the four brothers and sisters heard the news from the servant, they all gave a thumbs up, and praised at the same time: It's still our old lady's high number!
Qingling Sect, "Big brother, my father's situation is getting worse, we can't delay any longer. As soon as Peng Jihao received the news from his younger brother, he couldn't sit still anymore.
Gathering his aura, Peng Jihan stood up from the futon with a solemn face, "Well, you go to the mission pavilion to get some tasks to go down the mountain." ”
"Okay." Peng Jihao didn't say a word and ran out.
Outside the mountain gate, Luo Jin and Lin Yu waited at the mountain gate early in the morning, and their four eyes always fell on the direction where Luo Xin often came and went.
It didn't take long to see the white light flickering on the flat hillside that was empty, and a slender white figure gradually became clear.
"Heart." One man and one beast greeted her excitedly, they hadn't seen her in months.
"Big brother." gave Luo Jin a hug as usual, and Luo Xin naturally stepped onto Lin Yu's back, which had already stretched.
"Big brother came early, right?" Just look at the dew on the shirt, you must have been waiting for a few hours, and Luo Xin was very helpless about Luo Jin's always arriving early.
"No, the eldest brother came on time, just in front of you for a stick of incense." Luo Jin rubbed the top of Luo Xin's head dotingly, opened his eyes and said nonsense.
"Big brother, I've grown up." So stop rubbing your head at every turn.
"No matter how big she is, she is the sister of the eldest brother." Luo Jin shrugged.
Luo Xin: ......
"Big brother, how did you think about the advice I gave you last time?" The eldest brother can't always be by her side, if this is the case, the eldest brother's cultivation will not make any progress, even if she uses the pill to pile up a peak master of the heavenly rank, it is just a high-level fun pavilion www.biquge.info, but it is not a high strength, there is no rich fighting experience, even if there is a high level, it is useless, if it is not good, it will be a light death.
"Xinxin......" Luo Jin groaned, did not say the following words, Xinxin's opinions, he really considered it seriously, but he never made up his mind, he and Lin Yu were really unwilling to leave Xinxin's side.
"Big brother, I can't always run out for nothing, I also have to cultivate, so even if my eldest brother is always waiting here, I won't see my heart a few times a year, so why don't I use these waiting hours to learn new things? I think that as long as the eldest brother wants to learn, with the eldest brother's ability and qualifications, he will be able to do his best. Luo Xin said bitterly.
