Chu Xuan walked with everyone for several hours, and when he returned to the Dao Sect, it was already twilight, and the evening breeze was gentle and the sky was full of light.

He planned to go to the dining hall to eat something casually, and then go directly back to his small building to rest, but Zhu Yan stopped him, saying that Zhu Tingzhi had instructed him that if he found him, he must take him back to the house, and set up a banquet to entertain him and wash the dust. Chu Xuan couldn't refuse, so he followed Zhu Yan to Zhu's mansion.

When the two arrived at the gate of Zhu's mansion, everyone in the Zhu family was overjoyed when they learned that Chu Xuan had been found, and they all came out to greet them.

"Xiao Xuan, you're fine, it's okay!"

Seeing that Chu Xuan came back intact, Zhu Tingzhi's heart, which had been hanging for a few days, finally let go. Not to mention anything else, this is a peerless genius with thirty-six hidden veins, but it is hard to find, if it is just gone, it will be a pity.

Seeing that the old man cared so much about himself, Chu Xuan was also moved, leaned over and bowed to the other party, and said, "The disciple is incompetent, which makes the master worry." ”

The old man hurriedly walked up to him, grabbed one of his hands, and said as he walked: "Originally, the day before yesterday was the old man's birthday, but in order to wait for you, a stinky boy, the old man deliberately waited until today to hold a birthday banquet, go, go to the back hall, and accompany the old man to have a few drinks!"

Several sons of the Zhu family also chimed in: "That's right, Brother Lin is in danger this time, so he should drink a few more cups to suppress the shock." ”

Hearing that he was going to drink, Chu Xuan's heart couldn't help but feel distressed, he was most afraid of being persuaded by others to drink. In fact, it's not that he can't drink at all, but after a few glasses of wine, he is easy to drink fragments, and he loves to talk nonsense when he breaks them, I'm afraid it won't look good at that time.

Turning his head to look at Zhu Yan, he found that Zhu Yan nodded to himself with a smile, so he had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, it's rare that everyone is happy for me, so I'll accompany you to have a good drink." ”

After a while, everyone moved to the back hall. The servants of the Zhu Mansion had already set up a banquet, and there were several long tables, all of which were neatly laid out, including mountain dishes and wild dishes, as well as eight delicacies, followed by all kinds of fruit brews and clear sauces, many of which Chu Xuan had never seen before. Look at this scale, there will be more visitors later.

Sure enough, not long after everyone sat down, the hall masters of the other three halls and some unknown elders came over to the banquet one after another, and even Li Yi, the real person of the ruling sect, also came with congratulatory gifts.

Hearing that Li Yi was coming, Zhu Tingzhi hurriedly got up to greet him personally, and Chu Xuan, as a junior, naturally left the table with him.

"Little ghost, I heard that you are missing, isn't it good?" Li Yi asked with a smile when he saw Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan smiled awkwardly and said, "I knew that the real person was coming tonight, so that headless monster specially let me come back and meet you." ”

Everyone laughed, and then took their seats. As soon as he entered the banquet, everyone really raised their glasses to persuade him to drink, as Chu Xuan had worried before, and it seemed that they would not stop if they didn't get him drunk.

In just a moment, Chu Xuan was so drunk that his face was red and his eyes were drunk. Zhu Tingzhi saw that the time was almost up, and immediately stood up and said in a loud voice: "On this birthday, the old man announced one thing to everyone, and now ask the real person of the ruling sect to make the decision and marry the little girl and Lin Xuan! The wedding date is set in two months!"

Li Yi was naturally happy that Chu Xuan and Zhu Yan tied the knot, so he nodded and said, "This matter is testified by the old man, so it is decided, Chu Xuan, Xiao Yan, what do you two think?"

When everyone heard this, they all turned their eyes to Chu Xuan and Zhu Yan.

I saw Zhu Yan's face flushed, he lowered his head and didn't say a word, and when he saw everyone staring at him, he twisted his head shyly and got up and went to the backyard.

Chu Xuan was already drunk at this time, and after listening to Li Yi's words, he laughed a few times, burped and said, "You, you old man is a little interesting, come, I'll give you another drink." ”

Zhu Tingzhi on the side hurriedly said: "Since Xiao Xuan didn't say anything against it, the old man will assume that he agrees, and you can also testify." ”

Everyone smiled and said: "Don't worry, Lord Zhu, we are all witnesses, you have accepted this son-in-law." After that, there was another push and a change of glass.

...

Early in the morning of the second day.

"Hmm, my head hurts, why am I lying here?"

Chu Xuan couldn't remember how much wine he drank, only knew that he must have been drunk last night, and when he opened his eyes, he realized that he was not in a small building, but in a guest room in Zhu's mansion.

He rubbed his head, put on his cloth shoes, got out of bed, and walked slowly towards the door, where he met Zhu Yan who came in with a sobering soup.

"Brother Xuan, are you awake?" Zhu Yan saw him, his face turned crimson, and he said in a low voice.

Chu Xuan was puzzled: "Senior sister, why is your face so red?"

Zhu Yan lowered his head and diverted the topic: "You were drunk last night, I warmed a bowl of sobering soup for you, drink it while it's hot." ”

Chu Xuan didn't think much about it, took the soup bowl and drank it in one gulp, and said, "Senior sister, I'll go back first, and come and play with me when you have time." ”

"Wait, Brother Xuan!"

"What's the matter, Senior Sister?"

"No, it's nothing...... Zhu Yan shook his head, and suddenly said, "Don't you remember what happened last night?"

"What happened last night? I don't remember it at all. Chu Xuan looked dazed.

"Well, forget it, you'll find out sooner or later. Zhu Yan sighed and said quietly: "It's okay for me, I'm just worried that my father's face won't get by, it's all my fault, I should have made it clear last night......"

Chu Xuan still didn't understand what she wanted to say, and asked a few times, but Zhu Yan didn't answer positively, so he had to return to his small building alone with a stomach full of doubts.

At this time, it is the spring and summer solstice, looking up at the sky, but seeing the dark clouds, covering the sky and the sun, there is a faint lightning crossing, it seems that a heavy rain is coming.

Chu Xuan returned to his place of residence, went up to the second floor, opened the window, and sat down by the window. While taking out the formation that had been written down in the book before, he was distracted and looking out the window at the gloomy lake.

A cool breeze rushed into the small building, blowing down the book in Chu Xuan's hand, Chu Xuan bent down to pick up the book, and was about to close the window, when he suddenly heard a "rustle" sound from far and near, and the heavy rain really came.

"Knock knock—"

Suddenly there were several knocks on the door downstairs.

Chu Xuan closed the window, went downstairs, opened the door, and found two women standing in front of the door, each holding a bamboo umbrella and carrying a gift box in their hands.

"Are you, Miss Xia?"

If it weren't for seeing the little maid next to him, Chu Xuan almost didn't recognize Xia Qinghan.

"Lin Gongzi, I came here to thank you. Xia Qinghan raised the gift in his hand and smiled lightly.

Today, she didn't wear men's clothes, she wore a flying fairy bun on her head, her ears were beaded, and her face was powdered, but the powder seemed to be too much, and it was a little unnatural, I think it was because she didn't dress up much on weekdays.

She was wearing a high-waisted skirt in aqua green, with fluttering sleeves, and a burst of fragrance from time to time.

Looking at it this way, it turned out that Xia Qinghan was also an incomprehensible beauty, Chu Xuan suddenly felt a little panicked in his heart, and excused himself: "I laughed with the girl that day, why are you still serious?"

Xia Qinghan insisted: "Childe, please accept it, otherwise my intentions will be in vain." ”

Chu Xuan couldn't, so he had to accept all the gifts.

At this time, the rain gradually became heavier, Xia Qinghan and Ah Yuan stood outside the door for a while, seeing that Chu Xuan was stunned and did not speak, Xia Qinghan said embarrassedly: "Childe, don't you plan to invite us to go up and sit down?"

"It's just, stupid, stupid. Ah Yuan was very unhappy, she carried the most things along the way.

Only then did Chu Xuan react, scratched his head embarrassedly, and said, "Forgive your sins, please go up to the second floor and sit down for a while." ”

The two of them went up to the second floor, and Chu Xuan immediately picked up a chair for them to sit down, but then he didn't know what to say, thought for a moment, and had to say: "I'm shabby here, I can't even entertain a cup of tea, so I neglect the two girls." ”

"Oh, you're embarrassed to tell me. Ah Yuan pursed his lips.

Xia Qinghan hurriedly motioned to the other party to stop, and then said to Chu Xuan: "My maid is spoiled by me on weekdays, and she doesn't know etiquette, I hope my son doesn't mind." ”

Hearing this, Ah Yuan didn't say a word, in fact, she really wanted to say to Xia Qinghan: You are embarrassed to say me! It's just that the other party desperately gave her a look, so she still held back.

Seeing Chu Xuanmu's wood, and because of Ah Xuan's presence, Xia Qinghan was embarrassed to take the initiative to talk to Chu Xuan, so he said: "Son, the rain is light, let's leave first." ”

"The two of you walked slowly. Chu Xuan said as he sent the two to the first floor.

Before leaving, Xia Qinghan's face suddenly turned red, and he said softly: "Childe, the end of this month is the little girl's birthday, the little girl made an appointment with a few close friends, and went to the 'Flower Pavilion' outside for a small gathering. The Flower Pavilion in her mouth is the most famous restaurant on Chongsheng Island.

Chu Xuan nodded and did not refuse.
