Chapter 169: Promise
Faced with Cheng Biting Jin's chic invitation, Tang Xiu suddenly remembered a very popular sentence in later generations.
Life is like a strong field, since you can't resist, it's better to choose a more comfortable posture.
Therefore, when faced with the same result, but there was a choice between mild and rough processes, Tang Xiu also chose a more comfortable way to invite.
Of course, this is only on the premise of making sure that Cheng Yanjin has no ill will towards them, otherwise once he perceives the danger, he will not be able to beat him, and Tang Xiu will definitely not sit back and wait for death so obediently.
In terms of martial arts, Tang Xiu may really have no way to bite the gold, and the gap in the realm can be solved by not being ruthless or by having many people.
But compared with Cheng Biting Jin, Tang Xiu has another identity, he is a doctor, although he only has half a bucket of water, but if he wants to use the medical skills he has learned to kill people and defeat the enemy, Tang Xiu believes that if he really encounters a desperate situation where either you die or I die, even a martial artist at the peak of dark strength will never be able to leave him.
You must know that what Tang Xiu learned in the medical classics left by his ancestors before was not just the art of curing diseases and saving people.
Pharmacology, like a weapon, can be used correctly to heal diseases and save people, and improper use can poison the world!
This is not an exaggeration at all, ancient Chinese medicine, coupled with some chemical principles of later generations known to Tang Xiu, it is not difficult to formulate some colorless and tasteless poisons that can make people instantly paralyzed or paralyzed.
When he came to Chang'an this time, the medicinal powder that Tang Xiu had with him was not only one that tempted people's hearts. The reason why it was not used on Cheng Biting Jin was that Cheng Biting Jin had no malicious intentions, even if he made a move, his subordinates were quite measured. The second is that Tang Xiu himself can't afford to face the serious consequences of poisoning a grandfather, compared with Cheng Yanjin, a little old man who has lived for more than 60 years, Tang Xiu still cares more about his own life.
"Hahaha......"
"I know that my grandson is a smart man, how can he ask for hardship?" Cheng Yanjin laughed, shook his hand and said, "Then it's decided!" Tomorrow, after you go to worship Pei Youdao, you will go back to our house directly, and grandpa will send someone to pick you up at that time! ”
"Also, although the Ci'en Temple here is good, it is a monk's nest after all, so what's the matter with living here with a female dependent? If you come to Chang'an in the future, you will live directly in our house, and your grandfather will point out a yard for you, even if you live at home for a long time in the future, there will be no problem! ”
Although Cheng Yanjin's words and deeds were domineering, the words he said were very heartwarming, at least Pei Caier and the three of them were somewhat moved after listening to it.
"Grandpa Cheng is polite." Seeing that Tang Xiu still had a cold face and did not squeak, Pei Cai'er chuckled and bent over to thank Cheng Biting Jin, "As long as Grandpa Cheng is not afraid that we will disturb the tranquility of the mansion at that time......
"Hahaha, or my good granddaughter-in-law can speak," Cheng Yanjin said with a smile: "But grandpa, my favorite thing in my usual life is that someone comes to disturb me, the more noisy grandpa is, the happier he is, if the house is too quiet, grandpa will feel uncomfortable." Therefore, good granddaughter-in-law, even if you come in the future, as long as you come to the house, not only the old man, but also your aunt and grandmother will definitely be very happy. ”
"That old woman is nagging in the old man's ear all day long, saying that her grandchildren are not around, and there is no one to talk to recently, and the granddaughter-in-law is so well-behaved and sensible, the old woman will definitely like you very much!"
"Grandpa Cheng has won the prize." Being praised so much in front of her, Pei Caier's little face was a little red, and she lowered her head and looked shy.
"Hahaha...... Okay, the old man still has something to do, so I'll leave first, remember to see you at home tomorrow morning! ”
After speaking, Cheng Yanjin turned around and left, and when he was about to walk to the gate of the courtyard, he suddenly turned around again, and warned Tang Xiu in a loud voice: "Good grandson, don't think about leaving secretly, otherwise even if you chase after Taiyuan Mansion, Grandpa will tie you back again, don't be lucky, otherwise don't blame Grandpa for not being merciful!" ”
"I ......" Tang Xiu opened his mouth, and finally nodded helplessly: "Lu Guogong rest assured, tomorrow's junior will definitely go to the appointment on time!" ”
People are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, this is Cheng Bitingjin's home field, under the nose of Cheng Biting Jin, the head snake, they want to leave Chang'an together unknowingly, it is really not an easy thing.
"That's good, this time grandpa is really gone, see you tomorrow!"
Cheng Yanjin's old face showed a trace of a victorious smile, nodded his head with satisfaction, put his hands behind his back, took small square steps, and slowly left the courtyard gate step by step, this time he really left.
Seeing that he had finally sent this plague god away, Tang Xiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and went back to the room and sat on the chair weakly, thinking about the corresponding countermeasures in his heart.
"Husband seems to be very wary of Lu Guogong?" personally handed Tang Xiu a cup of warm tea and gently placed it on the table in front of Tang Xiu, Pei Cai'er also sat down opposite and asked Tang Xiu softly.
"Lu Guogong is Mrs. Tai's sister-in-law and husband's aunt and grandfather, the relationship between the two families should not be fake, after all, this matter is not difficult to verify, and there seems to be no need to deceive us with Lu Guogong's identity, my husband has always wanted to refuse Lu Guogong's invitation today, isn't it a little too careful?"
"Hearts?" Tang Xiu smiled bitterly and shook his head lightly, "It's my wish that I'm worried about it." ”
There are some things that Tang Xiu is inconvenient to talk to Pei Caier, lest Pei Caier will be worried or have a bad heart when she knows about it.
Therefore, things such as the murder in the west of the city and Pei Youdao's death in prison, Tang Xiu would rather hide them in his heart alone than let Pei Cai'er know a little.
Tang Xiu can guess a little bit about Cheng Biting Jin's intentions, and it is true to admit his relatives, but if it weren't for the things that Cheng Biting Jin needed in the Tang Mansion, if Tang Xiu was just a loser who was nothing, it is estimated that Cheng Biting Jin would not be so enthusiastic.
Although Cheng Biting Jin didn't say a word about watermelon and medicinal diet today, Tang Xiu believed that when Cheng Biting Jin's emotional card was almost played, Cheng Biting Jin's true purpose would naturally be revealed.
At the end of the day, it's a question of guilt and trust.
In the previous life, even Tang Xiu thought that his closest wife in the whole world could secretly poison him for his secret, not to mention Cheng Yanjin, the so-called aunt and grandfather he had never seen or even heard of.
If Cheng Biting Jin became greedy, wouldn't they just throw themselves into the Cheng Mansion so rashly?
"Actually," Seeing that Tang Xiu still couldn't let go, Pei Cai'er said softly: "Before we came to Chang'an, Lu Guogong seemed to have been to our manor in Taiyuan. According to Tang Lu, Mrs. Tai didn't seem to want to see Lu Guogong at that time, and Lu Guogong didn't use force, and left in disgrace after being rejected by Mrs. Tai......"
