Chapter 57: Marriage Proposal
"Let's go out today. After Gu Moxi was dressed neatly, she put on a veil and hugged the Red Tiger, today she was going to the auction house to auction a Sleepy Demon Ring and Healing Elixir. This Chixiao Tiger did sleep extremely sweetly, but this was just a calm on the surface, she used her spiritual power to probe last night, as Shui Ruo said, the internal injuries were a little serious.
Just in case, Gu Moxi still put down his cultivation and decided to heal the little guy's injuries as soon as possible.
Bai He tidied up the bed for Gu Moxi, well, he didn't find the red spots that Madame said.
"Okay, Miss, where are we going?"
Gu Moxi was also in a very good mood today, and wanted to tease Bai He, "Let's go to those small stalls that sell small picture books." โ
Bai He's hand stiffened, she couldn't answer this!
"Hahaha, I'm kidding. Where is the auction in this night city?" Gu Moxi sat on the soft collapse, stroked the red tiger in one hand, and grabbed a peach in the other, nibbling very happily.
Bai He also made the bed at this time, wiped the sweat from her forehead, turned around and smiled at Gu Moxi, she was a little happy in her heart, Miss finally stopped thinking about those little picture books every day, God knows how others think of her every time she buys so many copies!
"Miss, there are many auction houses in this night city, I don't know which one you want to go to?" Bai He moved a small bench for himself and sat next to Gu Moxi.
Gu Moxi has completely changed the "stinky problems" on Bai He these days, and Bai He finally understood his own young lady, and gradually regarded Gu Moxi as his sister. Between sisters, why care about the rules of master and servant?
Gu Moxi turned his head to look at Bai He, who was sitting beside him, put the peach in his hand directly on his dress, and took out another peach with his free hand and handed it to Bai He, "Of course I have to go to the biggest auction house." โ
"The bigger the auction house, the more money it needs. However, the advantage is that there is a wide variety, and you can find it in whatever you want, but in the end, this bid often exceeds the value of the auction item several times. Bai He reached out and took the peach and took a small bite.
Gu Moxi felt that it was okay, it was not bad to see the world, "Let's go there." โ
"The largest auction house in this night city is called Hengyun Auction, this Hengyun auction is everywhere, as long as it is on this fantasy continent, then there is its branch, I heard that this Hengyun auction is the property of an elder in the Imperial City. Bai He replied.
"Okay, let's go there. Gu Moxi agreed very quickly. This former lord is also a little local tyrant, she accidentally found the Lingsu stone hidden by the former lord a few days ago, and counted as many as five hundred, plus the goods delivered by Li Wanru before, there are more than six hundred. Of course, in addition to these spirit stones, she also found ten spirit element crystals, and she didn't want to take out these ten crystals to spend, so she had to keep some for later cultivation.
"Oh well. Bai He shrugged helplessly, once the young lady decided, it was useless for her to persuade her, so it was better not to say it. Bai He also noticed the little white tiger sleeping on his young lady's lap, wiped his little hands, and slowly stretched out to the little white tiger. Just about to touch it, the little white tiger seemed to have a sense, and immediately twisted his ass down and dodged. Bai He pouted, and a kitten was not allowed to touch it.
If the Red Tiger heard Bai He's words at this time, he would definitely blow up his hair.
There are extremely few beast masters with Honorable Rank Demonic Beasts in this Night City, not to mention a mutated Blood Talisman Red Tiger, you must know that this Blood Talisman Red Tiger has reached the peak of the tenth level of the Honorable Rank, no one can guarantee that it will not be directly promoted to the Half-Immortal Rank, if ordinary people know Gu Moxi's good luck, they will definitely die of jealousy.
"Miss, where did you pick up this kitten?" Bai He didn't touch the "little fat cat", and he didn't feel the slightest bit of displeasure, and turned his head and asked.
Gu Moxi was stunned and couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud.
It's no wonder that after this red tiger became smaller, it was a kitten, if she didn't know the reason for this, she would definitely be the same as Bai He, thinking that this was an ordinary kitten.
"Isn't this a kitten?" Bai He was a little strange, did she say something wrong?
Gu Moxi waved his hand, "You're right, this is indeed a kitten, I picked it up from outside the city." โ
"Miss, let's go to the auction house, are we going to buy something?" Bai He quickly finished nibbling a peach, put the peach pit into his waste spirit storage bag, and by the way, put the leftover peel that Gu Moxi and Shen Yuan ate yesterday into it.
"You'll know when the time comes. Gu Moxi threw the peach pit in his hand into Bai He's spirit storage bag and winked at Bai He.
Bai He was inexplicably stunned, and touched his little face, well, a little hot. If Miss is a man, she is afraid that she will be fascinated.
"Girl, you little girl, don't you have a crush on you?" Shui Ruo's underbeaten voice sounded in Gu Moxi's head again.
"But it's a girl, and the master used to say that only men and women can be together. "The Demon Summoning Sword has sold a little more cute.
Gu Moxi's face darkened again, "Shut up for me!"
With calm regained in his mind, Gu Moxi got up and patted Bai He's shoulder, "Let's go." โ
Bai He immediately stood up, put the small bench in the corner, and kept up with Gu Moxi's footsteps.
During this time, Gu Moxi finally figured out the Gu Mansion, and soon arrived in the front hall, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard the sound of talking.
"Mrs. Gu, you see that my son Yunyan is good-looking, and his cultivation is also considered to be the best among the young generation in Night City, this ......" The folds on Zhang Xiao's face burst into laughter, and he just wanted to continue. Li Qinghe waved his hand, a little impatient, and Zhang Xiao quickly stopped his mouth.
Li Qinghe took a sip of tea, "Master Zhang, this is all a matter for young people, I follow Mo Xi's wishes in everything, and I never force it." โ
Zhang Xiao glanced at Zhang Yunyan, who was standing next to him, and Zhang Yunyan immediately stood up, "Mrs. Gu, I saw Miss Gu's demeanor at the birthday banquet yesterday, and I can't forget it today." I fell in love with Miss Gu at first sight, and I hope that Mrs. Gu will be fulfilled. โ
Gu Moxi, who was standing outside the door, heard it clearly, and was a little speechless, these nonsense words can only deceive the little girl who is not deeply involved in the world, she is an old aunt who has lived for more than 20 years, and she is completely unmoved.
Bai He secretly glanced at Gu Moxi, and did not find that his young lady was a little shy, and nodded his toes to look at the room, this Zhang Gongzi also looked good, I don't know how it compares to that young man this morning.
And Li Qinghe in the house is very bland, these people's careful thoughts, she still can't guess it?
His daughter withdrew from the marriage contract at the birthday banquet, completely got rid of the title of waste, and was fortunate to be accepted as an apprentice by the deacon of the temple, who among the families in the night city could not weigh the status of their daughter? If they can marry her Gu Mansion, they can have a little relationship with this temple, and if this is passed out, I don't know how much benefit it will bring to them.
It's a pity that what she hates the most is this kind of person who tends to be inflammatory.
As the saying goes, where the wind blows, the grass falls.
"Zhang Yunyan, if you fall in love at first sight so easily, I really don't dare to let Mo Xi make a marriage contract with you. Li Qinghe has always been straightforward and quick-spoken, and said such a sentence mercilessly.
Zhang Yunyan, who was still in a state of flux, immediately didn't know how to pick it up, stood in place and didn't know what to do, and looked at Zhang Xiao as if asking for help. Zhang Yunyan thinks that he is handsome, and the jade tree is in the wind, which is no worse than that Yunrong. Today's coming to Gufu to propose marriage, according to him, should be smooth sailing, unexpectedly, Li Qinghe is such an attitude.
"Mother, I already have a place in my heart. Gu Moxi walked in from outside the door, it just so happened that these two people were here today, I believe that there will be more families to propose marriage in the future, she doesn't have so much time to deal with these things, it is better to be a hundred.
Zhang Xiao was a little confused, this Gu Moxi had just divorced Yun Rong, and he found a new love so quickly?
"What, the head of the Zhang family doesn't believe it?" Gu Moxi directly scooped up the heart-protecting jade pendant on his waist into his hand and lit it up in front of Zhang Xiao's eyes.
Zhang Xiao's old eyes widened, although the appearance of this heart-protecting jade pendant is no different from the ordinary one, but it does have the breath of a man's heart's blood on it, this is indeed a heart-protecting jade pendant. Zhang Xiao was a little disappointed in his heart, he originally thought that his speed was fast enough, but he was still cut off.
Zhang Yunyan on the side was also stunned, looked at the jade pendant in Gu Moxi's hand, and then looked at Gu Moxi, "I don't know which son of the family it is?"
Zhang Xiao also reacted, staring at Gu Moxi directly, he also wanted to know who had intercepted his beard!
Bai He and Li Qinghe also looked at Gu Moxi, looking forward to Gu Moxi's answer, although Li Qinghe had already seen through everything, he still wanted to hear his daughter say it herself.
Gu Moxi silently took back his jade pendant and said quietly: "The deacon of the temple." โ
Zhang Xiao and Zhang Yunyan opened their mouths wide at the same time, glanced at each other, and then looked at Gu Moxi.
It turns out that the deacon of the temple is premeditated, no wonder he will come to the city lord's mansion to celebrate his birthday, the drunkard does not mean to drink!
It's just enough to quietly accept Gu Moxi as an apprentice, and even the marriage contract is given, is this to personally cultivate the future daughter-in-law?
"That'...... That's really ...... It's really bothering, it's still ...... I also hope that Miss Gu, don't ...... Tell the deacon. Zhang Xiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a stumbling face.
Zhang Yunyan also nodded violently, if the deacon knew that he was delusional and wanted to pry the corner of the wall, he wouldn't fix him to death?
Gu Moxi looked at Zhang Yunyan extremely seriously, "What Zhang Gongzi said was sincere, how long has it been since it became so fast?"
Zhang Yunyan was about to cry at this time, should this little aunt and grandmother tease him like this!
"Also... Please also Mrs. Gu, a large number of adults, don't put ยทยท Will this matter..." Zhang Xiao still couldn't react, and he still couldn't change it.
Li Qinghe held back a smile and nodded very generously, "Don't worry, the head of the Zhang family, this matter will never reach the ears of the deacon." โ
Zhang Xiao was moved to tears, thanked Li Qinghe vigorously, and left three hundred spirit stones before leaving.
