Chapter 5: The Witch House
As soon as Wu Qiaoyan stepped into the witch house, she was caught by the second uncle.
The Wu clan is not prosperous, there are only three brothers in the lineage, and Wu Qiaoyan's father is the youngest son of the old man Wu. Since he was a child, he was extremely talented, and he thought that the Wu clan would rise again because of him, but in those turbulent years, the old man Wu lost his young son and daughter-in-law one after another, leaving only Wu Qiaoyan who was waiting to be fed.
What broke Old Man Wu's heart even more was that his granddaughter turned out to be a waste material. Not only that, but he also has an ugly face and is relatively stupid.
From then on, the old man set an extra family rule for the Wu family: if Wu Qiaoyan accidentally does something wrong in the future, she is not allowed to be too harsh, but can only be guided.
But with the bad things she did more and more uncompetitively, no one in the Wu family treated her except for the old man Wu.
Du Jiajing, the second daughter-in-law of the Wu family, is a powerful character, with a strong personality, and she takes care of all the chores of the Wu family, and she does things resolutely. In the Wu family, the one she looks down on the most is Wu Qiaoyan.
Wu Qiaoyan, who had just finished the accident in the past two days, disappeared without a trace! This made her very unhappy. Didn't you see that the old man was seriously sinned because of the matter of protecting the treasure jade? In case of......
Du Jiajing, who looked for Wu Qiaoyan three times and twice and threw herself into the air, had already been on fire, especially now that Wu Qiaoyan was still laughing heartlessly, her lungs were about to explode.
Du Jiajing's attention was completely on Wu Qiaoyan, and he didn't see Sikong Fengxuan who came in after Wu Qiaoyan. She stepped forward without saying a word, grabbed Wu Qiaoyan's ear, and screamed bitterly.
"Dead girl, do you have a long heart? The old man has always loved you, ten years, even a piece of pig iron is ripe, right? Why don't you die outside and don't come back? β
Wu Qiaoyan, who was caught off guard and was in pain, bared her teeth to protect her ears and asked for mercy again and again.
"Second uncle, the most gentle and beautiful second aunt, you let go first, there are guests, there are guests. Hiss-it hurts! β
As soon as she shouted like this, Du Jiajing realized that the superlative Sikong Fengxuan not far away was walking towards her step by step.
When did Syracuse come to be such a handsome? Du Jiajing was puzzled.
Sikong Fengxuan glanced at Wu Qiaoyan's ears that were red by Du Jiajing, and there was a fatal coolness in his voice: "Let go." β
The irresistibility in his tone made Du Jiajing subconsciously let go of his hand.
Ordered to the host as a guest? Is this really good?
The scene suddenly fell into embarrassment.
However, Du Jiajing, who manages general affairs all year round, is not stupid. The cold and noble aura on Sikong Fengxuan's body can it be an ordinary person?
Du Jiajing laughed dryly and stretched out her index finger to poke Wu Qiaoyan's forehead, but suddenly felt a sharp gaze from the 'guest' swept over, as if her finger would be broken off if it was poked to death.
She tucked her fingers away. changed to take Wu Qiaoyan's hand with a pleasant face. patted it gently: "You kid, why do you only say it now when a distinguished guest comes to the door?" β
After turning his back, he squeezed his eyebrows and tortured Wu Qiaoyan, "Stinky girl, who is that?" How did you meet? Why did you bring it home? β
Wu Qiaoyan learned from her memory that although Du Jiajing was strong, harsh, and very disgusted with the original body. But he is a well-intentioned person.
Once the original body was sick, she still took care of her for a few days. So as soon as she entered the door, she was grabbed by the ears and scolded, but Wu Qiaoyan was not angry.
"Second uncle, he is from Jianbao Pavilion, and he promised to come to help grandpa see his injuries."
"Oh, from the Treasure Pavilion." Du Jiajing repeated casually, but in the next moment, she suddenly raised her voice in an octave: "What did you say?" Treasure Pavilion? β
After getting Wu Qiaoyan's affirmation, she immediately smiled, let go of Wu Qiaoyan, and her enthusiasm for Sikong Fengxuan soared.
"When a noble person comes to the cold house, it is a foolish woman who neglects the distinguished guest, and I hope that the distinguished guest will forgive me."
Du Jiajing, who had always only trained people with a stiff face, suddenly smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth, which made Wu Qiaoyan very frightened, and she silently swallowed back the words 'He is the master of Jianbao Pavilion'.
Sikong Fengxuan is not impressed by Du Jiajing's enthusiasm at all, and the most common thing he usually does is to fall asleep. Accustomed to being alone, he was a little uncomfortable with Du Jiajing's high-decibel voice. He staggered Du Jiajing indifferently, took Wu Qiaoyan's hand without saying a word, and strode forward.
Du Jiajing, who was hanging in place, looked at the two people who walked away with big hands and small hands, and muttered twice: "This girl has finally gone through a shit luck and done a serious job." After sighing, he went to do his own thing in a hurry.
And Sikong Fengxuan, who was pulling Wu Qiaoyan forward, suddenly felt that the soft and boneless little hand in his palm was pulling back hard.
Wu Qiaoyan's actions made Sikong Fengxuan frown in displeasure. He clenched his little hands tighter, and the coldness on his body instantly spread wantonly, and asked, "You dislike me?" β
Wu Qiaoyan: "......" Where did he come to the conclusion that I dislike him?
Wu Qiaoyan, who felt that her hands were being clenched more and more tightly, and could only passively follow Sikong Fengxuan to continue walking, said speechlessly: "I just want to tell you, if you go again, you will go to the toilet, let's go together, isn't it appropriate?" I'm still young, though. β
Sikong Fengxuan's feet paused, and his warm and handsome face cracked inch by inch. He decisively let go of Wu Qiaoyan's hand, and put his hand behind his back with a dark face: "Lead the way." β
Looking at Sikong Fengxuan, who had a completely poker face, Wu Qiaoyan wanted to laugh out loud. But when he glanced at him with a warning eye, she was immediately stunned, and she could only hold back.
Sikong Fengxuan frowned and stared at Wu Qiaoyan, who was walking in front and shrugged her shoulders with a snicker, and once again affirmed a conclusion in her heart: she is really toxic, and whoever has been in contact with her for a long time will not only be abnormal but also have a tendency to become stupid.
The two soon arrived at the upper room of the Wu Mansion, and before they entered the house, Wu Qiaoyan shouted loudly: "Grandpa, Qiaoyan is back." β
The suppressed coughing sound in the room stopped abruptly because she heard Wu Qiaoyan's voice.
This made Wu Qiaoyan, who was about to push the door in, smile gradually disappeared. Grandpa is afraid that she will feel guilty! Even the cough has to be endured, but how can the cough be endured. She sadly tugged at Sikong Fengxuan's sleeve and pleaded.
"Sikong Fengxuan, my grandfather's old illness is entrusted to you, I will give you the way to catch the blood silverfish, and even you can put forward other conditions, as long as I Wu Qiaoyan can do it, it is absolutely unambiguous."
Sikong Fengxuan glanced at Wu Qiaoyan quietly, let out a faint 'hmm' in the middle of the sound, and took the lead in entering the house.
The old man Wu is full of gorgeous hair, round face, and rich. However, because of the pain, he looked haggard. He began to look at the curtain of the door after hearing Wu Qiaoyan's voice.
He hadn't seen this kid for two days, and he was always afraid that if he didn't watch it under his nose, Wu Qiaoyan would be bullied.
The curtain of the door sounded, but he saw that it was a strange young man who exuded a noble air all over his body.
Sikong Fengxuan's arrival surprised Old Man Wu, and he struggled to get up and ask, "May I ask your Excellencyββ? β
Without waiting for Sikong Fengxuan to answer, Wu Qiaoyan rushed in from behind like a small cannonball, and helped Old Man Wu to lie down distressedly: "Grandpa, he is a person from Jianbao Pavilion, and he specially came to show you his injuries." Lie down with peace of mind, Qiao Yan will definitely make you live a long life. β
Sikong Fengxuan, who had not spoken since entering the door, was furious as soon as he opened his mouth: "For people who cultivate combat power, if you tell him to live a long life and live a hundred years, you are cursing him to die early." β
Wu Qiaoyan was embarrassed for a while, but it was the old man Wu who lovingly maintained: "Don't blame the distinguished guest, Qiao Yan has been innocent since she was a child, although what she said is a little unsatisfactory, but her heart is excellent." β
Sikong Feng Xuan's intuition was mixed with a lot of water in what the old man Wu said.
He didn't answer anymore, and directly put aside Wu Qiaoyan, who was smiling stupidly, and began to show Old Man Wu his injuries.
After the battle qi condensed into filaments and wandered through the eight veins of the old man's strange meridians for a week, Sikong Fengxuan's complexion became solemn.
I thought that in a remote and impoverished place like Syracuse, even the injuries suffered after the battle would not be tricky, because the combat power level of the people here was too low.
But the old man's injuries are obviously old injuries left after the fight with the people. What an accident!
