Chapter 042: Red Line
Just like when he came, Xia Jing strode away, not realizing that there was a person standing beside him, and he was still a young and delicate girl.
Fu Yingying looked at the back of him leaving, a little unwilling to be ignored like this, but she inexplicably felt that this man was really great.
"Nian'er, you go and accompany your uncle, don't let your brother-in-law drink, add more bowls of rice to him, and there will be business to talk about later."
"Okay." Guo Nian'an got up and bowed to Fu Yingying obediently before leaving.
"Yingying, I'm sorry, my brother-in-law was too anxious to be rude just now, the last time he came, he knew that he had to take care of the defense of men and women, and he didn't even enter my yard!"
Fu Yingying shook her head slightly, "Your uncle...... Why is it also a cloth dress? And it doesn't look very old, are you married? ”
Xia Hanqiu couldn't help laughing, as soon as the beard on her uncle's face came home, she was ordered by her grandmother to shave, saying that he was not yet married and was not qualified to grow a beard, and she almost didn't recognize it when she first came.
She never thought that her uncle-in-law after shaving was actually a baby face, saying that he had just reached the crown and was believed by people, plus he had lived with the Taoist for more than ten years, and he had seen many nobles, and he naturally had a bearing, and he looked more like a nobleman than a commoner.
"My brother-in-law should be twenty-five this year, my grandfather's family is a merchant, and he is only in accordance with the rules when he wears cloth clothes, he has only been out of school for a short time, and he has not yet married, but my grandmother should already be looking for him."
"Merchant?" Fu Yingying's eyes were full of disbelief, "How is it possible?" I don't look like it at all? ”
"Identity doesn't change because it's not like." Xia Hanqiu took a sip of tea indifferently, "My uncle's master is a master of Wuwei Dao, and he lives in a shifting spirit. Raising the body, even if you look at it, you can see it. ”
"Wuwei Dao Chief? The one in the West Mountain? ”
"You know that, too?"
Fu Yingying nodded again and again. His face could not hide his surprise, and countless thoughts instantly skipped through his heart. When she saw the man's red eyes after seeing her nephew, she felt that this was a person with heavy feelings, she thought that she was not bad looking, if she didn't wear a hat and went out, who wouldn't look twice.
But this man never set his eyes on her from beginning to end!
No, I didn't see her at all!
She suddenly thought in her heart, if there was such a husband, wouldn't she have to worry about him carrying a woman on the left to the door in the future?
As soon as this idea popped up, it was like grass growing and she couldn't suppress it, so she couldn't wait to ask him if he was married.
When he knew that he was not married, he learned that he was the son of a merchant.
The spark in my heart had just risen, and I was poured cold by a basin of cold water. But then I learned that he actually studied under Wuwei Dao Master......
The reputation of the Taoist of Wuwei is not among the people, but in the aristocratic circle.
How many people go to Xishan with gold and silver just to ask for a hexagram from the Taoist of Wuwei, if there is no such honor, they will be satisfied with a word and a half, but the Taoist of Wuwei rarely shows up, and the outside affairs are all handled by his four disciples.
Could it be that Qiu's uncle is one of them?
If he still has such an identity, even if he is the son of a merchant, his mother will definitely not stop him!
But. What was she going to ask?
"Yingying, are you...... Not happy? ”
Seeing that she had been disagreeing with her, Xia Hanqiu couldn't help asking, she also felt that her brother-in-law had made a sharp wave. But today's situation is different, she can understand her uncle's eagerness, if Yingying is still angry. She felt that she should replace her brother-in-law daoqian.
A word of sorry came to her lips, but she heard Fu Yingying say, "Your uncle...... Is it one of the four great disciples of Wuwei Dao Master? ”
Xia Hanqiu did not answer her question. Instead, he fixed his eyes on her, "Yingying." Do you care about this? ”
"I care, I, I made a decision, but this decision needs confidence."
"This confidence comes from you asking me this sentence?" Xia Hanqiu's memories were fused, and the things she thought about with her heart were quickly figured out, but she couldn't believe it.
One is the daughter of the city lord, the other is the son of a merchant, and the one who is not the head of the house, how can it be? Just because it involves the chief of Wuwei?
The Fu Yingying she knows is not such a superficial person!
"That's what you think, instead of living with a nobleman with a filthy mind, it's better for me to choose one myself."
Xia Hanqiu didn't know what expression to use to face her, "You're too bold, fortunately, it's only me here, if outsiders know about your reputation, your reputation will be ruined." ”
"I dare say that in front of you." Fu Yingying knew she was taking a risk, and after that idea popped up, she was like a gambler ready to take a big gamble, using the rest of her life as a bargaining chip.
"Uncle is not one of the four disciples." Xia Hanqiu saw her disappointment in her eyes and continued: "Wuwei Daoist does have four disciples, but they are not the four people you know, those four are only registered disciples, and they are full-time to deal with foreign affairs. ”
"What do you mean......"
Xia Hanqiu looked at her and smiled, "If you recognize Wuwei Daoist like that, my brother-in-law's identity is worthy of anyone." ”
It's all so clear, how could Fu Yingying not know Qiu's attitude, hope suddenly rose in her heart, and because her intentions were known, her face flew red, and the person who has always been calm and dares to say and do only feels extremely beautiful when he shows this appearance.
Xia Hanqiu held the pot and refilled the tea for her, and endured not laughing at her, "Dao Chief, is he really that powerful?" ”
"Is it really amazing, don't you ask your uncle to know?"
"My brother-in-law, I don't have to say anything, I don't have to say anything, but if I say that I can calculate, it's not that I praise myself, I'm better than him, when Wuwei Dao Chang took him back to the mountain, he said that his talent was in the practice of martial arts, and he couldn't do it, he was the last to get started among their senior brothers, I heard him say that the above three senior brothers are much stronger than him, Yingying, think about it before making a decision, my uncle is not as powerful as you think."
Fu Yingying understood that she was telling herself that if she really wanted that, she would have given up, but she was trying to be that person......
For some reason, she recognized this person at a glance.
Sending people away, Xia Hanqiu came to the dining room, his uncle had already eaten, and he was talking to Nian'er.
Guo Nianan stood up when he saw her, "Sister." ”
"Well, what are you talking about?"
"I asked him what he knew, Qiu'er, you tell me everything."
Xia Hanqiu didn't intend to hide it, but he didn't want to say these things again in front of Nian'er, so that he could face those bloody facts again, "Nian'er, you go to read the book, I can't say that I will go to the school in a few days." ”
Guo Nianan didn't question it at all, saluted and left.
Seeing that the two sisters and brothers got along so well, Xia Jing was relieved and felt that Qiu'er was too difficult, it was not easy for her to be alone, and she had a younger brother to drag her down......
"Uncle, what are you sighing for?" Sitting opposite his uncle, Xia Hanqiu asked.
Xia Jing had already heard from her that she was not married, and she didn't mention it at this time, but only urged her to say it quickly.
Xia Hanqiu did not refuse, and said this for half an hour.
"What a beast, what a beast!" Xia Jing was so angry that his face turned red, and the ones he found were not comparable to what Qiu'er said, but the more he knew, the more angry he became.
"Qiu'er, what are your plans?"
Xia Hanqiu looked at him in surprise, "I thought that brother-in-law you would impulsively kill Zhang Zetian." ”
Xia Jing rubbed his face, as if he wanted to wipe off the bitterness on his face, "I want to, but when I left the mountain, the master explained, I must not do things under the banner of the master, I must not commit the killing precept within three years, and now there are still a few months left, and the master emphasized that you can't kill if you have a relationship with me within three generations, from you, whatever he says is within my three-generation relationship." ”
"Uncle, you still want me to recognize a person who killed my mother as my father?"
"Autumn ......"
"I know what you mean, uncle, don't worry, even if Nian'er kills Zhang Zetian in front of me one day, I won't complain." If she could, she would even want to take revenge herself, but she didn't have the ability.
Xia Jing didn't know what to say, Zhang Zetian wouldn't let it go, even if he couldn't now, even if he couldn't do it himself, he would never just forget it, but Qiu'er was his daughter after all, and he didn't want someone to splash dirty water on Qiu'er.
So he and Nian'er can do these things, but Qiu'er can't.
"Don't talk about this, uncle, did Nian'er tell you just now that he wants to practice martial arts?"
"No, what, he wants to practice martial arts?"
"Well, he told me that he wanted to practice martial arts, can you accept apprentices?"
Xia Jing touched his clean and slippery chin, and remembered that before leaving the mountain, the master suddenly told him, if someone wanted to learn martial arts from him, he would teach him, and he was still strange at that time, the first rule of the master was that the skills should not be passed on without the consent of the master, why did the master open the door to him, it turned out that the master had already calculated this.
That...... If something happened to Wei'er, did the master already know about it?
"Uncle? Isn't it possible? ”
Xia Jing pressed the question to the bottom of his heart, and made up his mind that the next time he saw his master, he must ask clearly, "I can't accept apprentices, but I can teach Nian'er, but is it appropriate to let Nian'er practice martial arts?" ”
"Practice martial arts to strengthen your body, you can still bully back when you are bullied, you can't learn badly, you still have to learn what you should learn, and then you can arrange it well."
Xia Jing thought about it, at least he had the power to protect himself, and he could not worry so much when he was away.
"That's good, I made a fuss in Wuyang first, and it's not suitable to show up for the time being, you arrange a place for me to live, and I'll lead Nian'er into the door first."
Fu Yingying personally sent a letter of recommendation from the city lord the next day.
Since this day, Guo Nian'an got up before dawn every day to practice martial arts, practiced the basic skills for an hour before eating and going to the school, and continued to practice after returning from the school, and practiced for an hour after dinner, and then went to do the homework explained by the gentleman in the school.
Don't talk about playing and having fun, the time to sleep is compressed to the extreme, Xia Hanqiu was distressed when he saw it, but Guo Nianan gritted his teeth and persevered, Xia Jing didn't say anything in front of him, and as soon as he turned around, he praised Xia Hanqiu, saying that if it weren't for the fact that the master didn't dare to go back to the mountain, he wanted to take people to the master to see, maybe it would make the master move and accept a closed disciple.
Xia Hanqiu really hopes to be like this, but there are some things that he can't ask for. (To be continued......)
