Chapter 53: The Lingering Past
People come and go, singing and dancing in broad daylight, passers-by are wanton and noisy, and all kinds of monsters are passing around.
Xi Xiaocan glanced at those people or demons who let go of themselves, and pouted in disgust: "This is the legendary 'three regardless'?"
"Yes. Wen Dao immediately bowed down and replied, his vicious gaze swept through the streets and alleys, "This is the place where the scum of the two clans of the shemale clan live together. ”
"Sure enough, it's a gathering place for low-level creatures!" Xi Xiaocan snorted weirdly, "Are you sure that demon girl is hiding here?"
Wen Dao lowered his body respectfully: "Absolutely sure!"
"Very good!" Xi Xiaocan gritted his teeth and glared at the crowd, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and he couldn't wait to grab Xi Xiaoshen with his own hands, "Dig three feet into the ground, you have to dig her out for me!"
Xi Xiaocan stomped his feet, and commanded to smell the incense: "Go, find the best inn, Miss Ben wants to take a bath and rest." ”
Wen Dao casually glanced at Wen Xiang, and reluctantly walked into the bazaar, asking everywhere which inn was the most comfortable.
"Senior sister......" Wen Sheng caught up and accompanied her to find the inn, "Don't take care of the stupid lack of the eldest lady, Senior Brother Wen Dao is just using her, and when this deal is finished, who cares who she is!"
Wen Xiang was resentful in her heart, and complained desperately: "She had to come with her, but she was shouting tired all the way, three steps and a stop, five steps and a rest, and she walked for many days." She always plays with the temper of the eldest lady and uses me as a servant!"
"Senior sister, bear with me for a few days, she loves how to let her go. Wen Dao leaned into Wenxiang's ear and whispered, "You don't know yet, our business this time is based on time, and if she spends one more day, we will take one more day." She doesn't care about money, what are you anxious about!"
"And this way of calculating money?This eldest lady, her brain is broken......" smelling the fragrance and venting sulking was in a good mood, they laughed while talking, just look for the most expensive inn, anyway, the eldest lady is not bad for money.
As soon as Xi Xiaocan lived in the No. 1 room of Tianzi, she took a rose petal bath. The mist of water and the fragrance of flowers lingered in the water, and she couldn't help but let out a sigh of satisfaction.
She closed her eyes and leaned back on the edge of the pine tub, the heat that continued to seep into her pores gradually awakened the memory that was hidden deep in her heart.
On that day, the sun was shining and the breeze was warm, and the elders gathered together to celebrate her 18th birthday.
Not to mention the delicious food and wine during the banquet, the guests also heard her praise endlessly.
From childhood to adulthood, her annual birthday banquet was spent in the limelight. This is nothing unusual, as the daughter of a famous family, even if there is more praise, she can fully afford it.
She has always been regarded as a pearl in the palm of her hand by the Xi family, and her food, clothing, housing and transportation are the best, and when she becomes an adult, the husband who will be married is naturally one of the best in the town.
Chongjia scholarly family, ancestors once had a civil official with three grades of official residence, Chongxiao is deeply shaded and talented, and is a famous talent in the surrounding ten miles and eight towns.
He appeared for the first time at her birthday banquet, and Sven was polite and talked extraordinary, and Mrs. Xi was very satisfied with him, and immediately made this family affair with Chongxiao's parents.
Chongxiaoxiao always lowered her eyebrows and was obedient, not daring to look at the high-ranking lady of the Xi family, Xi Xiaocan also pretended not to think so, as if she didn't take him in her eyes at all.
But when the matchmaker placed their eight-character stickers on a plate painted red and gold, a smile rose at the corner of her mouth.
She likes him, not because others say he is good, but because his warm and clear eyes look very stable.
The next few meetings went as smoothly as expected, and Chongxiaoxiao patiently tolerated her arrogance and willfulness. He is like a noodle person who can knead at will, he is obedient to her and never dares to disobey her.
In fact, she spent a lot of thought in order to see Chong Xiaoxiao often, but as the dignified lady of the Xi family, she always had to be reserved, but he, a nerd, didn't understand the amorous at all.
Not long ago, she deliberately let him go back and forth to Xifu on the grounds of raising birds, but she didn't expect him to openly quarrel with her for the first time for a bird, and because of this, he got involved with the hateful Xi Xiaoshen.
Since then, she has felt that he has changed, and he used to occasionally make her laugh, but then he has been silent, as if he has suffered a great grievance with her.
She thought that she would identify him in this life.
But no one expected that such a docile Chongxiao would finally do the ugly thing of running away from home in front of the whole town for the sake of that lowly demon girl. not only caused her to lose face, but also made the Xi family feel embarrassed!
"Damn!" Xi Xiaocan only felt Xi Xiaogray's ill-intentioned smile infinitely enlarge in front of her eyes, she suddenly opened her eyes, and waved her hand to disturb the pot of rose petals.
She pulled off her dress, put on it for a moment, and rushed to the next room, slamming the door with her fists.
Wen Dao, who was meditating in the room, got up and opened the door, and saw the angry Xi Xiaocan shouting: "You go and arrest that demon girl immediately, after the matter is completed, I will support you to become the strongest demon hunter on behalf of the Xi family!"
Hearing this, he immediately arched his hand and said: "Yes, we will definitely live up to our mission!"
That night, Wen Dao led the sound and incense, and hurriedly disappeared into the quiet night, searching everywhere for suspicious smells......
The moonlight was slightly cool, Chongxiaoxiao and Xiao Huangli hugged each other and sat in front of the inn window, Chongxiaoxiao recalled his experience, and still had palpitations.
"If I hadn't met you, my life would have been miserable. ”
Xiao Huangli listened to his aggrieved tone, and hurriedly reassured: "Okay, okay, don't worry, smile, we have come to Sanzhi, even if that eldest lady has the ability, it is impossible to arrest you back." ”
Chong Xiaoxiao gently pinched the tip of her small nose and said with a smile: "Little fool, since we have come this far, what else do I have to fear." When I decided to run away from marriage, I left my net worth and life behind. ”
As he spoke, Chong Xiaoxiao held Xiao Huangli's hand and stared at her affectionately: "As long as I am with you, I am willing to give everything!"
Little Huangli's eyes moistened with emotion: "Xiaoxiao, you are really a rare infatuated man in the world! No matter how many hardships and obstacles I encounter in the future, I will stay with you for the rest of my life." ”
Chongxiao smiled and nodded movingly: "Lili, you are the most righteous and gentle girl in the world, do you remember our encounter?"
"Of course, I'll never forget it. The little oriole snuggled happily in his arms, and her bright eyes looked out the window at the branches.
It was a sunny afternoon, and she was flying freely among the flowers, as usual.
She has always liked the scenery of flowers in full bloom, and when she is in a good mood, she will land on the treetops and sing happily.
But just as she was singing, a dense net suddenly fell from the sky, enveloping her and making her unable to move. Even though she desperately rushed around, she couldn't fly back into the blue sky.
"I've caught you, where do you want to run?" The family members who tried their best to close the net were full of laughter, scrambling to flatter the glamorous young lady.
"The eldest lady is really clever and wise! You said that you would be able to catch this bird within three days, so you caught it!"
