Chapter 18: The Treasure Pavilion
When night fell, the moon hung in the sky like a large jade plate, and the faint moonlight sprinkled the earth.
After dinner, Zhou Chen immediately went back to his room to sleep, but he couldn't sleep while lying on the bed, what Zhou Xiaotian said at the dinner table today, the impact was too huge for him, no less than an atomic bomb explosion.
"Mother" is such a strange word, he originally thought that he would not hear it in this life, and it would be impossible to call it. but suddenly broke into his life.
I don't know how long it took, Zhou Chen opened his eyes, looked at the faint silver halo on the window paper, and said in a trance: "I don't know what kind of person my mother is, whether she is as gentle as the third aunt or fierce like the second aunt." ”
He rolled over, looked at the dark corner of the bed, and asked, "Master, do you think my mother will be beautiful?" ”
The stone in the darkness seemed to move, and then Yi Xuerou's angry voice came to Zhou Chen's ears through the darkness: "How do I know that I haven't seen her again." ”
"Oh!" Zhou Chen replied softly.
After a while, Zhou Chen asked in a low voice again: "Master, you say, will my mother be very powerful, I heard my father say that she seems to be a member of a certain big family in the Divine Domain." ”
"I don't know. Again in the darkness, Eva's angry voice came out: "I don't know her." ”
"Master, Tianxue Palace is not powerful in the Divine Domain. Zhou Chen seemed to have a lot of questions tonight, and kept asking Yi Xuerou this and that, because he was full of confusion and confusion about the future.
If what Zhou Xiaotian said today is all true, then how should he face his grandfather now, he loves himself, because of his identity, or from the heart, compared to this, he doesn't know how to face the mother and her family who have not yet met, they let their family separate, so that he grew up without a mother, after seeing them, should he forgive them, or should he not forgive them.
"Of course it's amazing, Tianxue Palace is definitely a super force in the Divine Domain. Yi Xuerou said confidently, "And I can guarantee that it is definitely the favorite place for you men." ”
The place where men love to go the most, with longing, at this moment, Zhou Chen shamelessly thought about what Yi Xuerou said.
Noticing the change in Zhou Chen's expression, Yi Xuerou suddenly understood the mistake in her sentence, and immediately explained: "Don't think crooked, stinky boy, what I mean is that Tianxue Palace only accepts female disciples, not male disciples." "So the Heavenly Snow Palace of the Divine Domain is definitely a place that every man dreams of going.
"If you fall in love with that girl after you arrive at Tianxue Palace, you can tell the master, and the master can be a matchmaker for you. Ashroy patted her chest.
"Master, Tianxue Palace, compared to my mother's family, who is more powerful of the two. ”
"Master, if I want to take revenge on my mother's family, will you help me? ”
"Master, do you think my mother will still remember me and my sister?"
"Master, you said that I went to the Divine Domain to see my mother, how about being a gentleman. ”
This night, Zhou Chen's questions are as many as countless stars in the sky, and someone is like a mother, patiently answering all his questions, this night, Zhou Chen's heart has more hatred, that is, hatred for his mother's family and breaking up their family.
......
"Brother, hurry up, today is the day of the moon ceremony, why don't you hurry up. Zhou Chen, who was sleeping, faintly heard his sister's shouts, the so-called Yuefeng is the monthly living expenses of Zhou Chen's family.
Turning over his body, he opened his eyes in a daze, and what came into his eyes was Zhou Yaer's delicate face.
"What's the matter? Zhou Chen squinted his eyes and asked lazily.
"Receiving the moon. Zhou Yaer said word by word with her hands on her hips.
"Don't. Zhou Chen refused. Rolled over and hid under the covers.
Looking at her brother's appearance, Zhou Yaer was angry and funny, rolled up her sleeves, and lifted the quilt: "Brother, I see if you can still sleep." ”
The quilt was lifted, Zhou Chen couldn't help but shrink up, and at the same time stretched out his right hand to pull the corner that was lifted.
"Little sister, will it be okay to let me sleep again? Zhou Chen said pitifully: "I promise to get it." ”
"No, get me up. ”
Zhou Ya'er didn't eat Zhou Chen's set at all, shook her head and refused. Lifted the quilt again, crossed his hands on his hips, and stared at Zhou Chen with a muttering mouth, looking extremely cute.
"Okay, okay! I'm afraid of you, so I'll get up at once, don't lift my quilt. Zhou Chen had a bitter face, and said coldly, being disturbed by Zhou Ya'er like this, he suddenly lost his sleepiness, glared at Zhou Ya'er, and Zhou Chen could only get up depressed.
Looking at his sister's departing figure, Zhou Chen sighed: "I don't let people live, I can't even sleep well." Although he said what he said, his heart was warm, and it felt so good.
took the black robe hanging on the hanger and walked out of the room, at this time Zhou Yaer had already made breakfast and was waiting for Zhou Chen to come out to eat together.
There was only a pot of porridge and a few steamed buns on the table. The breakfast wasn't rich, but it was easy to fill your stomach.
Looking at only Zhou Ya'er and Zhou Lingxuan on the table, the expression of disappointment immediately hung on Zhou Chen's face.
"Is Dad gone?" Zhou Chen pursed his lips and asked softly.
"Hmm!" Zhou Ya'er nodded and said, "When I got up in the morning, I found that my father was no longer in the room, and I guess I secretly left in the middle of the night." ”
"Xiao Chen, come and eat. Zhou Lingxuan beckoned to Zhou Chen and said, "Otherwise, it won't taste good if it's cold." ”
Zhou Chen answered, sat down next to Zhou Yaer, and after a while, the breakfast on the table was swept away by the three of them.
Standing up, Zhou Ya'er said, "Brother, wait for me." ”
Then he quickly ran into his boudoir, and after a while, Zhou Yaer came out with an extra gold card in her hand.
"Brother, this card has all the belongings of our family, and now I will hand it over to you. Zhou Ya'er handed the card to Zhou Chen and said, "There are a thousand gold coins in it." ”
"Little sister, ...... you are" Zhou Chen took the card and asked suspiciously.
"Brother will be our coming-of-age ceremony in a month, and I don't want to see you being bullied at the coming-of-age ceremony. Zhou Ya'er said softly: "The money in the gold card is for you to buy spiritual weapons." ”
Zhou Ya'er raised her head and said seriously: "Brother, you must work hard to defeat those who bully you." ”
Shaking the gold card in his hand, Zhou Chen said seriously: "I will." ”
Zhou Chen glanced at Zhou Ya'er and Zhou Lingxuan, turned around and left the house.
According to the usual way, Zhou Chen came to the account room and successfully received the monthly stipends, including one hundred gold coins for Zhou Xiaotian, fifty gold coins for Zhou Lingxuan, and ten gold coins for Zhou Chen and Zhou Yaer. This adds up to a total of 170 gold coins.
......
Cloud Sky City is worthy of being a big city, and its popularity is extremely grand, although it is now a scorching sun, the flow of people on the street is still turbulent. Especially on the road leading to the Treasure Pavilion, the flow of people is more crowded.
Treasure Pavilion, the largest item exchange in Cloud Sky City, belongs to the Ning family, the richest family in the Star Flame Empire. At the same time, the Ning family also belongs to one of the four major families of the Xingyan Empire.
In the Xingyan Empire, when it comes to wealth, the Ning family is definitely the first.
However, the Ning family in the Xingyan Empire is not the kind of ancient family that has developed for hundreds of years, but twenty years ago, it swept through the Xingyan Empire like a hurricane, and quickly took root in the Xingyan Empire, and the speed of development was unexpected, and it quickly became one of the four major families of the Xingyan Empire, and the Nie family, which was also one of the four major families (one of the four major families of the Xingyan Empire ten years ago), was squeezed out of the new family, and the Nie family, who was squeezed out of the four major families of the Xingyan Empire, did not make any counterattack, but tacitly acquiesced that the Ning family was stronger than the Nie family。
