Although Xu Chen doesn't love money very much, he is from a poor family, how have he ever seen so much gold, his eyes were straight for a while, and he actually reached out and grabbed the box a little out of shape, wanting to experience the feeling of being a rich man.

But his hand stopped at the edge of the box, not because he remembered that such a move was a bit rude, but suddenly the many heroes who died to save Huang Xiaoxue appeared in his mind.

He couldn't help but feel sad, and the person also came back to his senses, so he said: "In the blessing of everyone, I was lucky to save Miss Huang, but this is not my ability alone, and there are many heroes who died on the road, which makes me very unhappy in my heart, how dare I be greedy for merit, please take back this gold, Xu Mou never dares to accept it." ”

"Why should the young man blame himself, you get rid of this big harm, so that I don't have to worry about transporting goods in the future, what's the harm in receiving this small gift. ”

Everyone thought he was pretending to be modest, and they all opened their mouths to persuade him. Those merchants went on to say that there was no reason to carry them back, and if Shaoxia refused to accept it, he would look down on them, which made Xu Chen very embarrassed.

Suddenly, he had an idea, and said, "Thank you for your love for me, I accept this ......"

Suddenly, he was stunned, because he saw a familiar figure behind those merchants, and he couldn't help laughing, and walked up to the man in a mocking tone, saying, "Don't come here outside Zhang Yuan!"

This person is Zhang Yuanwai, who blamed Xu Chen for letting go of the old snitch and blackmailing him for nearly forty taels of gold, and now he saw Xu Chen taking the initiative to talk to him, and couldn't help but say with an embarrassed face: "Shaoxia, I have eyes and no beads, and I have offended me before, I hope you don't care." ”

When Huang Zhongjie heard Zhang Yuanwai say this, he thought that Xu Chen had an enmity with him, so he hurriedly walked over and said with an old face: "Zhang Yuanwai, what did you disrespect to Shaoxia before, don't you invite it truthfully!"

Xu Chen laughed, squinting at Zhang Yuanwai, who looked uneasy, and was very proud in his heart, ready to see him look good on the spot, so as to eliminate the sullenness that had been suppressed for a long time.

Zhang Yuanwai's face became even more ugly, he privately pulled the corner of Xu Chen's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Xu Shaoxia, I have two hundred taels of gold in these two boxes of gifts, so I will make up for it, you will be an adult, don't embarrass the villain." ”

Hearing this, Xu Chen couldn't help but lose most of his anger, and remembered that he had blackmailed him a lot of money and food when he was with Master Jingkong before, and he could no longer bear to embarrass him, so he arched his hand and said to Huang Zhongjie: "Master Huang, it's just a small misunderstanding, I have long forgotten everything, and today I just came to catch up with him." ”

Huang Zhongjie saw that he didn't mention it and couldn't ask any more, so he glared at Zhang Yuanwai and went back to talk to the county official.

At this time, Xu Chen also returned to the crowd and continued what he had not finished just now: "Ladies and gentlemen, I said that this trip to the Black Wind Mountain was not my work alone, and I am really ashamed to accept these rewards. Why don't you use this money to buy a piece of feng shui treasure land for the dead heroes to rebuild the tomb for the deceased, and the rest of the money will be distributed to their families to ensure that they can live a stable life in the future, what do you think?"

As soon as Xu Chen's words were finished, the originally noisy city gate suddenly fell silent, and even those musicians stopped playing and looked at him. It's just that there was silence for a while, and the scene resounded with thunderous applause, praising him for his high style and brightness, and his future prospects are really limitless.

Huang Zhongjie saw that Xu Chen was kind-hearted, and his face smiled like a flower, and he said in his heart that I got this good son-in-law, which is really a blessing from the previous life.

But there was also a slight murmur in this happy crowd, at this moment, at the back of the crowd of onlookers, there were a few people with thieves and rat eyes looking at Xu Chen coldly, they were the secret agents sent by Shangguan Yu to inquire about the news.

Seeing that Xu Chen failed to die in Heifeng Mountain as they wished, but instead came back safely to show the limelight, these people all had disappointed expressions on their faces, and after whispering a little discussion, they quietly left, and went back to Qingfeng Mountain Villa to report to their master.

At this moment of celebration, who noticed the existence of these clowns, Huang Zhongjie stood beside Xu Chen with a happy heart, and said loudly to everyone: "Today I held a banquet in Mingyue Villa to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Xu Shaoxia, if you can afford Huang, please go to the village to have a few drinks and celebrate together!"

The scene was suddenly thunderous, I don't know who took the lead in lifting Xu Chen above his head, and the others also rushed up, hugging this young hero to go to Mingyue Villa with Huang Zhongjie to drink.

Seeing that he was so popular, Xu Chen's heart was fluttering, and when he arrived at Mingyue Villa, everyone seemed to have fallen into the clouds and fog, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and he was pushed to the chief by everyone to sit down, and took turns to toast him to express congratulations.

Xu Chen felt all the preferential treatment that Zhang Youde had received before, and he was extremely happy in his heart, and he couldn't help but be top-heavy, and he couldn't support it.

At this time, Huang Zhongjie called his daughter to toast again and thanked him for saving his life. Xu Chen was afraid of drinking too much and making a fool of himself, so he hurriedly excused himself.

When Huang Xiaoxue heard him refuse, her face suddenly sank, and she said in a coquettish voice: "Young Master Xu, do you dislike the little woman's glass of wine is not good enough, or do you have an opinion on me?"

Huang Zhongjie saw that there was an offensive meaning in his daughter's words, and his face was a little unbearable, but because everyone was not present, he had to secretly glance at his daughter.

But Huang Xiaoxue pretended not to see it, and when she saw that Xu Chen hadn't taken the glass, she handed the jasper wine glass in her hand to Xu Chen's lips and said, "Don't you want me to feed you?"

Huang Zhongjie saw that his daughter's behavior was a little provocative, and he couldn't help it anymore, and shouted: "Presumptuous, a girl's family is so frivolous, it's simply insulting!" After speaking, he hurriedly apologized to Xu Chen.

Xu Chen saw him scolding his daughter in public, which made Huang Xiaoxue's eyes flash with tears, and couldn't help but feel pity, and hurriedly said that he might as well take the wine glass in her hand and drink it all.

At this moment, a servant hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words to the county official sitting in the banquet, and the county official, who was drinking so much, changed his face after listening to his report, and immediately left the table to say goodbye to Huang Zhongjie and Xu Chen.

Huang Zhongjie couldn't help but ask in surprise: "My lord, is there anything urgent that you can't wait until you finish drinking before going back to work?"

"Oh, you don't know that there was a murder just now, how can I still be in the mood to drink, now I have to rush over to investigate the scene immediately. ”

Shangzhou has always been peaceful, and there has been no murder in Qingping County under its jurisdiction for many years, and now that such a murder has suddenly happened, how can the county officials not investigate the case. Huang Zhongjie also knew that the stakes were not good and he was forced to stay, so he personally sent him out of the village.

When Huang Zhongjie returned to the hall, he was angry, he actually saw his daughter sitting in his place to talk and laugh with everyone, and someone toasted her.

Not to mention that Huang Zhongjie was angry, even Xu Chen, who was sitting next to Huang Xiaoxue, shook his head and said secretly in his heart: "No wonder she provoked the gang of demon dogs in Jiangnan Sansha, if it is a lady who knows books and is courteous and focuses on female workers at home, how can she attract bees and butterflies to cause trouble." ”

He regretted it a little in his heart, if he had known that Huang Xiaoxue was such a character, he would never have joined the team to rescue this daughter.

Originally, she still had a little bit of a good impression of this rich daughter, but with Huang Xiaoxue's performance in the hall, Xu Chen felt that her behavior was a little too dissolute, and a trace of disgust had risen in her heart.

Huang Zhongjie blushed and pulled her away from the banquet under the pretext of talking to her daughter about some private matters, and then reprimanded her a few words, and ordered a few clever maids to send Huang Xiaoxue back to the boudoir, so that everyone would not see her presumptuous and talk about it, saying that her family education was not strict.

After returning to the banquet, he settled down and raised his glass to Xu Chen again, how dare Xu Chen drink it again, he quickly got up and said: "Huang Zhuang is sorry, I am greedy for a lot of cups today, and I really can't drink anymore." ”

Everyone was on the lookout to be able to fulfill his wishes, and one of them got up and said playfully: "Xu Shaoxia, this is wrong." ”

"Ah, what do you mean?"

"When is it, do you still call Huang Zhuang Master like that?"

Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, and asked inexplicably: "Is it rude to be under it?"

"Haha, Shaoxia is really a real person, you should change your name to your father-in-law. ”
