Chapter 9: Rivalry
The inheritance of the Wu clan needs to be calm, after the witch is settled, in order not to disturb him, the witch evil tiptoed to cover the door, I wanted to play the sword to calm down, but when I turned around, I saw that Wu Ming was carefully protecting Mrs. Ruan and walking towards this side.
The slowly rising sun shone on the entire mountain, especially covering the newcomers Wu Ming and Ruan Mei, looking at them from the position where Wu Xie was standing, they were like fairy couples bathed in holy light, and anyone who looked at them would feel like a match.
"Little evil child."
The wooden bucket that Ah Da used to carry water was thrown on the ground again, and when he heard his call, the witch subconsciously looked over, only to see him standing upright on the edge of the water tank, and his not very handsome face was at a loss.
"What's wrong?" There was nothing wrong with him, and the witch knew this very well, so he naturally waved his hand at him, signaling him to retreat to the side, lest he wait for the war to start and be implicated.
"You must calm down, Patriarch him...... Anyway, it's also your father. ”
didn't really retreat to the side, Ah Da was stunned for a moment, then went straight to the witch evil, and when he passed by her, he mentioned this sentence softly.
Wu Xie glanced at him, there was no sadness or joy on his face, obviously he was a girl who had just turned seventeen, but there was something hidden in his eyes that Ah Da couldn't see, and sighed helplessly, Ah Da took the long sword hanging on his back to destroy the world in his hand, and said that Wu Xie calmed down, but he knew in his heart that from the time Wu Ming protected Mrs. Ruan, this war could not be avoided.
"What kind of wind is blowing today, and it actually blows Daddy to the back mountain?"
Greet each other with a smile, and so will the witch evil, but every time Wu Ming sees her smile, she will subconsciously suspect that she is hiding a knife in her smile, so she instinctively took a step forward and protected Ruan Mei behind her tightly.
His actions were like brandishing an invisible broadsword, slashing his head and giving the witch demon a knife, and the sharp pain went from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, and exploded in an instant.
At this time, Wu Xie slowly realized that the past had already been invisibly buried in Wu Ming's heart, it was he who indulged her, so he would let her chase and run, and now she is the one who wants to go down the mountain, so he naturally doesn't have to indulge her anymore, so that spoiling should be changed.
"Husband, what are you doing here?" Stretched out his hand on Wu Ming's arm, secretly pulled him back to his original position, and persuaded softly: "No matter what the slave family says, the husband and the eighth lady carried the sedan chair and married into the house, even if the eldest lady is not satisfied, she will not hurt me, the stepmother, in front of so many Wu clan children." ”
Ruan Mei didn't deliberately lower her voice, and most of the people present were practitioners, so they naturally heard her words clearly, and they were biased towards her, and suddenly understood Wu Ming's vigilant actions just now, in order to prevent Wu Ming from killing his stepmother in anger. Those who are inclined to witchcraft and evil gradually understand that this new lady who entered the door is not a master who is easy to get along with, and in a few words, she provoked the relationship between the father and daughter of the witch family.
"I really won't hurt you."
Just when everyone was expecting how the witch evil, known as the little evil star, would teach this stepmother who came to provoke her, the witch demon nodded unexpectedly in approval of Ruan Mei's words, and turned sideways to make a gesture of invitation to her and Wu Ming.
Wu Xie rarely gave in, and without waiting for Ruan Mei to figure out her thoughts, Wu Ming strode out.
In order not to disturb Wu She, Wu Xie chose to let Wu Ming and Ruan Mei go to his cabin, which was absolutely impossible, so after Wu Ming and Ruan Mei entered the house, Wu Xie immediately glanced at Ah Ambassador behind him and motioned for him to stop those people behind.
"Evil son, you are ......"
Glancing out in the direction of Wu Ming's finger, Wu Xie chuckled lightly and asked rhetorically: "Daddy, isn't he afraid, thinking that he can't protect a woman if he goes out in person." ”
"What are you talking about?" Wu Ming frowned, sat down in the first seat, picked up the teacup on the table and poured a glass of water, drank it in his mouth and found that it was cold, and immediately put it back again, looking very disgusted.
Ruan Mei, who was secretly observing their father and daughter, knew that Wu Ming was on fire in his heart, and seized the opportunity to tell Chunhong about coming over to invite Wu Xie to Qianshan with a smile.
After listening to her, Wu Ming immediately took over and questioned Wu Xie: "Your thirteen mother ordered the kitchen to prepare your favorite food early in the morning, and you were busy organizing the birthday banquet, in order to make you happy, you don't want to go to Qianshan to meet people, so you don't need to beat Chunhong back." ”
"Call back? That's what the maid told her father? The witch sneered.
Wu Ming frowned, as if he had thought of something, but he couldn't ask directly in front of Ruan Mei in front of him, as he did before, so he had to wake up and say, "Everyone has seen the injury on Chunhong's arm." ”
"Daddy said to fight, then let's fight."
"You kid ......" Wu Ming felt that the child in front of him was spoiled by himself, and wanted to blame a few words, but the words couldn't be said completely, and in the end, he could only sigh leisurely.
Seeing this, Ruan Mei hurriedly went over to comfort her, but the witch didn't give her this opportunity, and threw out a sentence coldly: "Daddy understands his daughter, and if his daughter doesn't like it, he will be killed when he pulls out his sword, and there are few people who are as lucky as Chunhong who can go back alive to complain to his master." ”
"This ...... Miss, you are a girl, how can you talk about killing people at every turn. Ruan Mei looked frightened, and leaned towards Wu Ming tremblingly.
Wu Ming naturally took her into his arms, and his purple lips pursed into a line, he couldn't say whether he was angry or relieved, but the gaze at Wu Xie was a little sharper, which made Ruan Mei secretly happy.
"I've come to invite you personally, but you still don't want to go to the birthday banquet in Qianshan?"
I thought that Wu Ming would be like Ruan Mei, persuading himself to have less murderous thoughts, but I never thought that he would ask such a question, Wu Xie was not prepared, so he had to look at him blankly, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he shook his head with a smile: "My daughter is about to go down the mountain, there is no need to make this exception, besides, my mother once said when she was alive that it was too extravagant and wasteful to put on a birthday banquet, so she celebrated my birthday, and she got up early in the morning to make a bowl of noodles and fry an egg to finish." ”
"Ahem, you should know that your father and I can't cook."
"My daughter knows."
Wu Xie nodded, generously forgiving that the father couldn't even give his daughter a bowl of noodles, but his eyes were locked on Ruan Mei in Wu Xie's arms.
Seeing Wu Ming hesitantly looking at the beauty in his arms, he didn't say anything to let her cook, Wu Xie had no choice but to wave his hand and said: "Actually, it's nothing if you don't eat noodles, it's just that the back mountain has always been quiet, if your father is fine, don't come over, the beautiful scenery on the mountain will not be worse than the back mountain in the front mountain." ”
"What did the eldest lady say, since the slave family is married to her husband, she wants to be a good stepmother, and the eldest lady wants to eat noodles, so the slave family naturally has to do it herself."
Obviously, Ruan Mei is also a person who refuses to admit defeat, but looking at her supple skin and white skin, she doesn't look like a person who can cook, Wu Xie immediately understood, she is talking hard, so she bet that Wu Ming will not really let her go below.
Inevitably missing this great opportunity, Wu Xie hurriedly went to the door and patted Ah Da on the shoulder, signaling him to make way for Ruan Mei: "It just so happens that there is a stove outside the house, and Madame will make a fire here, so you don't have to toss back and forth." ”
"You ......"
Ruan Mei seemed to want to say something, but Wu Ming looked at her happily, holding her stomach and ordering: "Do more, I'm a little hungry after tossing for so long, just eat with the evil child." ”
"Yes, the slave will do it."
It can be heard that Ruan Meifu was very reluctant when she received the order, but it was a pity that Wu Ming decided that she could make delicious food, and she would want to turn her face and sell it miserably, but she lost to Wu Xie.
She's a person who doesn't want to throw in the towel!
Wu Xie once again affirmed his evaluation of Ruan Mei, and when he saw that she had really gone out to tinker with the stove, he couldn't help but look forward to a little anticipation, looking forward to eating a bowl of hot longevity noodles on his birthday.
"Actually, she is not bad in nature."
The voice above her head startled the witch who was paying attention to Ruan Mei's gray face and fire, and when she looked back, she saw Wu Ming standing straight behind her, admiring Ruan Mei's embarrassment with her with great interest.
Did Daddy say that sentence just now? The witch and evil are not clear, after all, this is not like what he can say, but it is not her style to be stuffed in his heart, and after hesitating for a while, he asked in a low voice: "Daddy knows that she was deliberately framed?" ”
"You are my daughter, I can naturally hear which words you say are true and which are false."
"Perhaps, I should really kill Chunhong."
"You kid, it's because the murderous intent is too heavy that you can't practice the arts, and you can't practice the internal strength of the Wu clan." At this time, Wu Ming hated iron and steel.
He shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and took the opportunity of Ah Da guarding the door outside, bringing up the old witch and evil things again, and asked about Ruan Mei's background: "Daddy really knows the details of Mrs. Ruan?" ”
"Of course."
"But she's like this, not like a daughter who can be raised by selling tofu."
"You're not like a daughter your mother can raise."
"Old man, are you doing it on purpose?" Wu Xie's clenched fists, she dared to bet with all her net worth that Wu Ming was definitely deliberate.
Laughing and raising his hand to grab her fist, Wu Ming raised his eyebrows, deliberately leaned into her ear and asked, "Why didn't you just draw your sword and cut people today?" ”
"I'm going down the mountain soon, I have to make a good impression on my father, if my father prefers the soul slashing in my hand, my daughter doesn't mind drawing her sword now."
"No, no, no, it's good to be gentle, evil child, you are a girl after all, don't be too murderous, and you need to be even more like this after you go down the mountain." Wu Ming shook his head like a rattle, amused by his actions, Wu Xie raised his lips and retorted: "Maybe when I go down the mountain, I will kill all sides, provoke a bunch of enemies, and then tell them that I am the eldest lady of the Wu clan, and my father can't help but admit it." ”
"You're deliberately making trouble for me."
"I think it's good, find you more messes, you won't have the heart to find other peony flowers."
"Go, what kind of person is your father and I, and I'm afraid that others will seek revenge, let me tell you, even if you find all the chaos in the world, your father won't frown."
"Daddy is mighty! Daddy is domineering! "Praise it when it should be praised, but after praising the witch evil, you still have to let Wu Ming, the father, know that she has grown up, and she will not let him change the topic casually: "Now you can talk about it, who is Mrs. Ruan." ”
