In Qiyunfang's inner residence, under the gaze of the maid and the housekeeper on the side, Chen Jiulian, the head of the Chen family, who had just sent away the two heads of the family who had come to pressure him together, frowned and thought about the content of the previous conversation, and finally sighed and walked out of the gate, bypassing a courtyard wall and entering the backyard.

Holding on for more than two days in a row was already the maximum he could do now, and as the pressure from other families increased, he decided to go to Chu Wenxin to talk to see if he could share some of the money to block those people's mouths.

Now his heart is very bitter, he doesn't see any intention of taking everything from the Situ family from these young masters, but if he continues like this, his Chen family will be considered to be at odds with the other thirteen families. It was easy for these people to leave, but it would take at least several years or even more than ten years for the Chen family to ease up again, and the gap between them was enough for the Chen family to be wiped out several times!

The backyard of the workshop was originally a residence specially for the upper echelons of the Chen family to come here to supervise, the place is not big but not small, two residences, a small courtyard and a well are the usual treatment of the upper echelons of the Chen family here.

As soon as he entered, he saw Chu Wenxin, Bai Xue'er, and the girl named Qi Shui sitting cross-legged on the futon by the well, one by one, a fishing rod, and the fishing line hanging into the well, and they were fishing and playing leisurely, while the old housekeeper surnamed Dong on the side was sitting on a rattan chair in the courtyard dozing, and couldn't help but feel a little breathless.

He remembered that he had heard them say that it was boring to wait like this, so he sent someone to put fish in the well for them to watch and play, and the result was ......

Even though he knew that it was unlikely, he still reluctantly put on a smile, and walked forward amiably and smiled: "That...... Chu Shaoxia......"

Chu Wenxin was also secretly playing with the two women while secretly passing the time, and looked at him when he heard the words: "The head of the Chen family is here, but those guys are not convinced?" ”

As soon as a sentence came out, Bai Xue'er and Qi Shui on the side also looked at Chen Jiulian at the same time, and the gaze from the two refining masters made Chen Jiulian's heart sink, and he hurriedly laughed: "It's a bit troublesome, I have known these people for a long time, and they are not fuel-efficient lamps, and four more families came to put pressure this morning, my Chen family has a small business, you see ......"

"Insatiable, isn't it?"

Before Chu Wenxin could speak, Bai Xue'er slammed the fishing rod on the edge of the well on the ground, and her face was angry: "These things belong to Miss and Dong Gongzi, they are really shameless!" ”

After that, she looked at Qi Shui: "Sister Shui, why don't you and I go to slaughter one or two to deter you?" ”

Qi Shui didn't say a word, and then Bai Xue'er also looked at Chu Wenxin and wanted to hear his advice, Feng Ling, Dong Tianle and Chu Wenxin's friendship during this time, they all saw it in their eyes, although Chu Wenxin's cultivation at this moment was not high, but there was no doubt that he could act on behalf of the three of them.

The family is big and there are many rules, and they are not good at making decisions about many things, but Chu Wenxin, who is regarded as a brother by Feng Ling and Dong Tianle, is an exception. At least he knows more, and he also knows how to be good to Feng Ling, Xiao Sha, and Dong Tianle, at least Chu Wenxin is not responsible for doing something wrong, but they may not!

To be honest, as the generals and personal maids of a big family like the Feng family, they rarely suffer this kind of anger outside, and if it weren't for Chu Wenxin's persuasion during this time, they would almost have to move out of the identity of the two families to deal with it.

Under their gaze, Chu Wenxin's face remained unchanged, and he only paused for a moment and said, "Continue to wait."

Even though he had expected this result in advance, Chen Jiulian couldn't help frowning, and was about to speak, when two children of the Chen family hurriedly rushed in on the side: "Family master, Xiao Shaoxia, they are back." ”

"Coming back?"

As soon as they heard this, the three people by the well suddenly got up, and Chu Wenxin threw an arrow in front of this person: "Where have they been?"

"In front of you"

Without waiting for this person to answer, at the corner of the outside, the figures of Xiao Sha, Dong Tianle and Feng Ling had already appeared, Xiao Sha looked at Chu Wenxin, who was dressed decently today and looked like a son, and teased: "I look good today, at least I look like a character." ”

"Ugh! Okay, why did you go for so long? Who is this? ”

Chu Wenxin scratched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly, and in a blink of an eye, he saw the thin old man who had his joints removed in his hand, and was surprised by the strong aura and terrifying appearance of this person, but he also felt that the tattered Taoist robe on his body was somewhat familiar.

"I'll talk about it later"

Xiao Sha handed the old man over to him, turned his head to look at Chen Jiulian, who looked quite happy on the side, and hugged his fists and said, "Let the head of the family wait for a long time."

"Don't dare"

Chen Jiu, who knew that he was the person on the rookie list, said politely twice, he wanted to talk to him about the current situation in Zhuang Nei, but he knew that they had just come back and were not suitable to talk about it, his eyes turned on the old Dao who was a little scary in Xiao Sha's hand, and after a few polite words, he found a reason to leave with his subordinates, thinking that even if they didn't say it, they should have a decision.

With this walk, the atmosphere in the small courtyard immediately became lively!

Dong Bai, who was still pretending to be asleep, had already gotten up to make tea for the three of them when he heard the voice, and Bai Xue'er also took Qi Shui to greet Feng Ling, chattering badly about the other thirteen families outside who wanted to covet the property they got from the Situ family.

Dong Tianle, who had just let the family go outside the workshop, had worked hard for a few days, and was about to drink tea and take a break, when he heard this, he suddenly became angry, and threatened to give these grandsons a little bit of power, and the old men finally got some money and had to pay taxes?

Feng Ling chatted with them sentence by sentence, and after saying a few words, she found a reason to take a few people out, leaving only Chu Wenxin and Xiao Sha, as well as the old way of being so thin that they were about to become dry corpses.

Chu Wenxin also wanted to ask Feng Ling and Dong Tianle to take the idea of cleaning up the gang, but seeing that they left without saying much to him, he left Xiao Sha and himself, and immediately understood that something might happen, and as soon as they left, the old man who had been removed from his joints threw it on Dong Bai's rattan chair, and sat down with Xiao Sha at the stone table in the courtyard and asked directly: "Look at your mystery, is it not going well?" ”

"It's not uneasy, but it's not over!"

Xiao Sha glanced at the old Taoist who was 'thrown' on the rattan chair by him and grinned like a toothache: "If you are gentle with him, he may be your ancestor generation." ”

"Ancestors?"

Chu Wenxin was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lao Dao in disbelief: "What do you say?" It can't be that they deal with us like the Changfeng Sword Sect, right? ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Sha's face faded a little, and he opened his mouth to tell the story of his several people's visit this time and what they saw and heard in the cave.

Those things are complicated to do, but they are just a cup of tea, and by the time he finished speaking, the relaxed look on Chu Wen's face had disappeared, and he rarely showed a bit of solemnity.

And Xiao Sha said it lightly, in fact, he also had doubts in his heart, Situ Lie said that there was still an ambush here, but the other party who asked the family general just now said that nothing happened, and there was no trace of turmoil along the way, and I felt that this thing was becoming more and more incomprehensible!
