Chapter 225: Listen to the Wind in the Teahouse
Ling'er put down the work in her hand, and followed Chen Xuan into the house, Chen Xuan had already poured a glass of water and put it on the table when Ling'er entered the house.
"Young master, do you have anything to do with me?" Ling'er said crisply.
"Let's drink a glass of water first, look at you sweating profusely" Chen Xuan handed over the water.
"Young Master Xie" Ling'er took a sip and put the cup on the table.
"Has anything happened to the family recently, why did I come back when I saw that everyone's expressions were wrong, and everyone had a forced smile on their faces," Chen Xuan asked.
"This" Ling'er hesitated for a moment, "Don't ask about this matter, Ling'er doesn't know" Ling'er's eyes flashed left and right, and she didn't dare to face Chen Xuan.
"Ling'er, can't even I know, when I was ten years old, you came to serve me, and now it's almost ten years, are you still worried about your young master, say it, I won't say it"
"Young master, don't force me, I really don't know, besides, isn't the family good now, everyone is happy that the young master can come back, today Mrs. also ordered the kitchen to make a lot of delicious food, wash the dust for you" Ling'er bypassed the topic.
"Little girl, I haven't seen you for a few years, you have started to play sloppy with your young master, tell me quickly, what happened, I am also a member of this family, I have the right to know" Chen Xuan with a hint of anger.
"The slave doesn't dare, how dare the slave and the maid deceive the young master, if the young master doesn't understand, you can ask the old lady" Ling'er said aggrievedly.
Chen Xuan felt like he was going to cry when he saw Ling'er, so he hurriedly came over and touched Ling'er's head, "I didn't mean to call you just now, I'm also in a hurry, don't you mind" Chen Xuan put away his anger and said softly.
Ling'er's tears fell suddenly, and she kept sobbing next to Chen Xuan, "The young master comes back once every two years, and when he comes back, he calls Ling'er, Ling'er doesn't know what he did wrong, it's been ten years, I have been serving the young master since I was eight years old, and it has been nine years now, the young master has never said Ling'er once, does the young master hate Ling'er" Ling'er sobbed.
"No, how can I hate you, although you have been the identity of a maid all these years, but when did I treat you as a maid, I have always regarded you as my own sister, today's thing is that I am wrong, I shouldn't shout at you, young master, I'm sorry, stop crying nose, crying will become a big cat"
"Flutter!"
Ling'er snorted and burst into laughter, "The young master is not Ling'er who won't tell you, besides, Ling'er is just a subordinate, and what he knows is limited, the master has something to say in the morning, let the young master have a good time for a few days these days, and after two days, the master wants the young master to return to the sect, don't delay the cultivation, the future of the Chen family depends on you, and Ling'er only knew it in the morning" Ling'er put away her crying and said to Chen Xuan.
"Okay, I won't force you, you go out and get busy, the yard doesn't have to be cleaned up, I'll go out for a walk"
"That Ling'er is gone," said Ling'er walked out of Chen Xuan's room.
Chen Xuan glanced at the direction in which Ling'er walked out, and glanced at Ling'er's back, "This girl has also learned to lie in the past two years, she obviously didn't tell the truth to herself just now, as long as he knew before, there was nothing he didn't know, it seems that Ling'er has also grown up, this time I also have to talk to my parents, find a mother-in-law for Ling'er, I don't need any maids here" Chen Xuan stood in place and muttered.
Simply cleaned himself up and put on a light white shirt, Chen Xuan did not choose a strong outfit, returned to the family, Chen Xuan gave up any cultivation, during this time he was ready to accompany his parents, and there was a major matter, but this is not the time, let's talk about it myself when the time comes, Chen Xuan arranged everything, relaxed, Chen Xuan stepped out of his room.
"Dad, mother!" Chen Xuan came to the courtyard where his parents lived and saw his parents sitting in the yard. He shouted.
"Xuan'er, you're here, did you sleep well last night," Chen Xuan's mother said with concern.
"Very good mother, I want to go out for a walk today, maybe I won't be back until the evening" Chen Xuan walked over and said.
"Okay, kid, it's okay to go out for a walk, but be safe, you know?"
"I know my mother, then I'll go" After saying that, Chen Xuan also said hello to his father and walked out of the yard.
Chen Xuan met a lot of acquaintances along the way, Chen Xuan went up to say hello one by one, but everyone showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, Chen Xuan basically knows now, something must have happened to the family, but now everyone seems to be hiding from themselves, so I simply don't ask, the best way is to go out and inquire by yourself, do they think they can hide it from me.
Stepping through Chen Xuan's gate, Chen Xuan walked towards the street, many shops are now open, most of the shops on both sides of the street have a Chen Zi written on the flags, it seems that the Chen family basically monopolizes most of the resources in Hongling Town.
Passing through the street, Chen Xuan found a teahouse that was not opened by the Chen family, walked in, and chose a private seat, directly in front of a clear lake, there are pieces of lotus leaves similar to straw hats floating on the top of the lake, several lotus flowers open and fight Yan, now it is autumn, a large number of lotus seeds on the lake have matured, many old people lead their children to play by the lake, picking lotus flowers, picking lotus leaves, playing in the lake, a peaceful picture appeared in front of Chen Xuan's eyes.
Chen Xuan sat down, asked for a pot of clear and turquoise green tea, and had a lot of thoughts, looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Xuan's thoughts returned to the place where he originally lived, not knowing what the earth is like now, and not knowing if the rules of time are different from here, whether he can return to the earth in his lifetime.
The morning teahouse business is not very good, only a few sporadic people, and a lot of talented and beautiful people, in pairs by the lake, chanting poems and painting each other, Chen Xuan just said nothing, very enjoy this tranquility, I hope that I will always be silent in this tranquility, from the first day I crossed over, Chen Xuan is fighting with the sky, fighting with the earth, fighting with people, nearly three years, never so peaceful and peaceful at this time.
Until noon, the people in the teahouse began to increase one after another, there were owners of nearby shops, there were also businessmen in a hurry, and some warriors, who may have rushed from the Sunset Mountains, it is difficult for the martial artists of the day after tomorrow to survive, and they will go hunting monsters every day in exchange for the necessities of life, and there is no guarantee of survival at all, maybe one day they will be buried in the mouth of the monster and become the food in the belly of the monster.
The quiet teahouse began to become noisy, but fortunately, Chen Xuan chose the corner by the corner, and the sound was very small, and some people began to talk when they stepped into the teahouse again.
"Master Lu, did Xiaohong of Cuihong Garden let you wrap it last night, that is the last Oiran that has not been budded this month, Lu Ye must have been **** last night," several big men shouted at a middle-aged man with wine and meat and fat intestines, regardless of the scruples.
"Don't mention it, that little lady shouted for help before she had a good time, and she couldn't stand it anymore, it was really disappointing, and finally she found the old bustard to change to a girl, but it was much more exciting than Xiaohong, this night, I took two powerful pills in a row, and I couldn't satisfy the little slut, and I want to go tonight, and I will go again, and all this bit of oil on my body will be squeezed dry by him" The obese middle-aged man boasted.
Immediately after that, some unbearable language began to come out, Chen Xuan frowned, there were more and more people in the teahouse, and the more people there were, the more noisy it became, and some shouting and selling voices also came out in the teahouse, and there were also those who sang.
"Do you know recently, the Chen family in Hongling Town has encountered ** annoyance, and now the shops are closed every day, I don't know why some shops have started to open again today, could it be that the strong man who threatened the Chen family has already let the Chen family go" A big man spat and said loudly.
"It's impossible, that strong man has set a period of one month, and there are five days to reach January, and we will see when the time comes, if the Chen family is destroyed, the last remaining family in our Hongling Town will also disappear."
"Isn't it, although there were three families in Hongling Town a few years ago, the reputation of the Chen family has always been good, and I have dealt with the Chen family a few times, and each time it will not let us suffer from the loss of the knife edge, and now almost every time I hunt the Demon Beast Neidan is sold to the Chen family, but recently the Chen family's shops have all closed, and I can only find another way" A big man said helplessly.
Chen Xuan's spirit had already covered the entire teahouse, even if there were a few mosquitoes in the teahouse, Chen Xuan knew that none of these people's conversations could be hidden from Chen Xuan's ears and eyes.
"But isn't it, the reputation of the Chen family is good in the vicinity, but this time it may be a natural disaster, no one knows who the Chen family has offended, and they actually sent the former of the Yuanwu Realm to come, and if they don't return to obedience, they will all be killed, I was also in Hongling Town at that time, and the strong man stood in the air, and with his might, he suppressed the entire Chen family, and he didn't even have the ability to resist, at that time, I was 10,000 meters away from the Chen family, and I was also suppressed by this coercion and couldn't raise my head, it seems that the Chen family is more than auspicious this time."
There are sighs, there are pity, and there are many gloating, these people's expressions and mentality can't hide Chen Xuan who is sitting in a corner, Chen Xuan is just like a beautiful talent at this time, there is not the slightest aura fluctuation on his body, Chen Xuan completely hides his breath, and now he is an ordinary person, so everyone has no idea that there are still people in the corner.
Time is quietly slipping away, the time to drink tea at noon has passed quickly, some people began to leave the teahouse, and then went to fight for their goals, watching everyone leave, Chen Xuan's face showed a gloomy face, someone was actually fighting the idea of the Chen family, this time fortunately he rushed back in time, otherwise the family would be destroyed, he was still covered in his bones, got up to settle the bill, Chen Xuan also walked down from the teahouse, this time Chen Xuan did not go in the direction of the super family, but in the direction of the outside of the city.
