Chapter 18: Awkward Confrontation
"Oh, it turns out that you are from the Mo family. Zhang Chenshou stroked his beard, which was not luxuriant, "This, where is your father?"
Zhang Meng listened to the confused conversation between the two just now, and his palms were also dripping with a lot of sweat, and he looked at Mo Mo's comfortable appearance with his spare eyes, and felt funny in his heart.
"Dad, Mo Mo and I have known each other for a long time, and today we happened to meet by chance in the city, why don't you invite someone to sit in the house?" Zhang Meng interrupted Zhang Chenshou's questioning.
Zhang Chenshou's face froze, glared at Zhang Meng, and said, "I don't understand the rules, doesn't my father know, I still need you to remind me." ”
Zhang Meng stuck out her tongue, knowing that her father cherished her face, and when men talked, she usually didn't dare to interject, but seeing that her father was chatting with Mo Mo endlessly, what should she do if she was exposed?
"It doesn't matter, the courtyard of Zhang's Mansion is full of grass, a hundred flowers are vibrant, chatting here, it is more elegant, our Mo family has been with demon beasts for generations, and we prefer this kind of open and elegant place. Mo Mo blurted out that he didn't know how he became so civil.
This step was clever, Zhang Chenshou naturally saved face, and said a little proudly: "Our Zhang Mansion is also a relatively old mansion in this city, every grass and tree here has been cultivated by the Zhang family for generations, and Mengmeng grew up in this environment, it must be gentle and delicate." ”
Zhang Meng couldn't help but blush when he heard his father boasting about himself in front of other men, remembering that he had beaten Mo Mo several times before, and he couldn't wait to do it all over again, so that he could be worthy of the words gentle and delicate.
Although Mo Mo snickered in his heart, he said without changing his face: "Yes, what Uncle said is right. ”
Zhang Chenshou felt that since his daughter brought the sons of other families over, he couldn't offend whether he liked it or not, especially these families with cultivation methods, he had never offended, so he said, "Then Master Mo will go to the hall and sit down, right?"
Mo Mo was also not easy to refuse, and said: "The younger generation listens to it. ”
Seeing that the old man didn't look angry, Mother Liu led the way in front and brought the three of them to the hall.
The furnishings in the hall of the Zhang family are simple, on the side, several wooden chairs are neatly arranged, two armchairs in the high hall, and a tea table for drinking tea is sandwiched in the middle.
Zhang Chenshou pondered again and again, and invited Mo Mo to the upper seat, and Zhang Meng sat on the side with his mouth curled.
Zhang Chenshou didn't want to offend the big family, so he didn't dare to slack off.
Zhang Meng secretly despised Momo, and even sat on an equal footing with his father.
Mother Liu went to make a pot of tea and brought it up slowly, because she felt that the old man was not slacking off Mo Mo, so she also poured a cup for Mo Mo.
"Young Master Mo, what kind of divine beasts did the ancestors enslave?" Zhang Chenshou was very eager to know how powerful Mo Mo's family was, in the Underworld Beast City, according to what kind of divine beasts they enslaved, they could almost guess what strength they had, except for those skilled craftsmen, of course, but since Mo Mo said that their family often went in and out of the forest, it must be a family that knew how to enslave them.
Mo Mo didn't know what a divine beast was, and he couldn't even remember the name of a divine beast in his head, except for the ten thousand years and thousands of years of Xuanshen, silver fox, and stinky centipede that he had come into contact with, he had never seen any awesome divine beasts.
After thinking about it, he said, "Oh, there are not many divine beasts in the family, and I don't know how to envoy divine beasts at the moment." ”
Zhang Chenshou's face changed, and he pondered: "This is unlikely, the person Zhang Meng can fancy must have a skill, and the person in the Underworld Beast City who will not enslave the divine beast, isn't that just a waste?"
Zhang Chenshou thought of another possibility and said, "Oh, that means your family is a craftsman blacksmith?"
Speaking of skillful blacksmiths, compared with chefs, they almost belong to the same social status, the reason why Zhang Chenshou didn't ask Mo Mo if he was a tailor family, just look at Mo Mo's clothes, how could the clothes worn by the tailor family be like this.
Zhang Meng saw that the conversation between the two was about to be exposed, and hurriedly said: "Master Mo, their family is a family of skilled craftsmen, father, you see, my six-mang-hundred-turn watch was given to me by Master Mo." ”
"Six-mang, hundred-turn watch?" Zhang Chenshou was curious, and looked at the thing Zhang Meng was wearing on his wrist, he hadn't seen it himself, but looking at the blue light that was slightly emitted on the dial, it seemed to be a high-quality material.
Mo Mo saw the opportunity and immediately said: "Oh, I saw that Miss Zhang's hand was like a soft wattle, and I thought that this watch must look good on her wrist, so I gave her one, which can record the time." ”
"Oh?" Zhang Chenshou was naturally extremely happy when he saw someone giving his daughter a gift, but he didn't know how much this watch was worth, so there was no way to evaluate the strength of the other party's family.
As soon as Mo Mo saw that the time had come, he immediately took out the spirit bead from his arms.
Because Mo Mo felt that this spirit bead was really a little cold, he was embarrassed to say: "This bead was originally brought by me to satisfy hunger, and since I am fortunate to come to your mansion today, I will stay here, I am really ashamed, I have long admired Miss Zhang, I have not seen it for many years, and I see it today, and I am even more bitter about lovesickness. If you can give some time, the younger generation will definitely bring more gifts from home and give them to the uncle, so that the uncle can consider it again. ”
After saying this, Zhang Chenshou actually didn't listen to it much, but he heard the previous sentence "This bead was originally carried on his body and used to satisfy hunger" He heard it clearly, at this time, looking at this pearl that was much bigger than a big pearl, Zhang Chenshou's saliva almost flowed out, God, this is a spirit bead, right?
Mother Liu also covered her mouth and stood aside in shock, stunned, as soon as she made a move, it was such a big pearl, how rich is this kid's family?
Mo Mo saw that the atmosphere was a little cold at this time, and felt that he was really shabby and couldn't be shabby, so he added: "Uncle, don't dislike it, the courtesy is light and affectionate, if the uncle thinks it's really shabby, the younger generation will think of other ways." ”
Zhang Chenshou really couldn't hold back his hands, carefully picked up this spirit bead, and then his throat and eyes seemed to be stuck with a lump of phlegm, coughed a few times, and said, "This, Mo Gongzi, how did you and Mengmeng meet?"
This Mo Mo blurted out and said, "A few years ago, I was injured because I was attacked by a demon beast, and I happened to meet Miss Zhang, who originally had the grace to save me. ”
Zhang Chenshou couldn't help it, then laughed and said, "So that's the case, then how many families do you have now?"
In Zhang Chenshou's eyes, in such a generous family, the son-in-law usually has several wives, and the kid in front of him, if he only has one or two wives, his heart is actually biased towards Momo
