Chapter 241: Letter to Xiao Chen
Seeing that his two elder brothers were drinking, Nangong Yan unceremoniously took a wine cup, poured it to the brim, and then craned his neck and drank it all. The mood is finally a little better. "Sister, although being an elder brother doesn't stop you from drinking, I still want you to behave ladylike. You know, as Xiaojie of my Nangong family, if you do this, it will make people laugh!" Nangong Yi opened his hazy eyes and said.
"Lady, lady, brother, am I still a lady at the moment? Ah Fu, this guy is really hateful! I care so much about him!" Nangong Yan said angrily.
"I think Brother Xiao Chen is a good person, Fourth Sister, you shouldn't make it so difficult for him. Nangong Xiong's tongue had already begun to tremble. But even so, he leisurely picked up a glass of wine and poured it down comfortably.
"Drink, drink, it's such a time, can you still drink?" Nangong Yan, who was angry, saw that until this time, his brother was still helping the person who had no conscience, and he was not angry. Nangong Yan immediately picked up the wine jar on the table and smashed it hard and deeply to the ground. With a crisp sound, the jar shattered to the ground, and the aroma of the wine overflowed.
"Fourth sister, if you think he has no conscience, don't go to Huayang Sect with him tomorrow!" Nangong Xiong's tongue was knotted.
"Phew, Nangong Xiong, do you think this Xiaojie will be as knowledgeable as him? Go, of course I want to go to Huayang Sect, I not only want to take him to Huayang Sect, I also want to be good to him in every way, I just want to see him condemned by his conscience!"
"Don't Nangong Xiong Nangong Xiong call me that, don't forget that I'm your third brother!"
"Nangong Xiong, you shut up for me, Ben Xiaojie is in a bad mood now, it angered me, I want you to look good!"
"Yes, yes!" Nangong Xiong nodded hurriedly, it was really sad to have such an almost unreasonable sister!
"I said, sister, why are you doing this? Xiao Chen's gift to you, you don't want to forget it, why waste it so much? Do you know how sorry it is to waste such a good wine!" At this time, Nangong Yi finally interjected. Looking at the fragments of the wine jar scattered all over the place, Nangong Xiong, who was also good at wine, showed a sad look.
"Big brother, you've drunk too much!" Nangong Xiong hurriedly covered his eyes, he didn't dare to look at what was going to happen next.
"I want you to take care of it!" Nangong Yan, who was extremely angry, stomped her foot angrily, but suddenly she realized that something was wrong.
"Wait, third brother, you said that this wine was a gift from Xiao Chen?" Nangong Yan grabbed Nangong Xiong's shoulder.
"Is this still fake? Fourth sister, let me tell you, Xiao Chen gave you a total of two jars of wine, one of which has been drunk by us, and the only one has been broken by you. It's a pity that such a good wine!But this idea was taken by your third brother, and I persuaded him a few times, hoping that he could ask for your opinion, but he didn't listen!" Nangong Yi looked at Nangong Meng with a gloating expression.
"Big brother, you are too unrighteous to betray even your own brother?" Nangong Xiong also smiled.
"What? You said that you drank up one of the two jars of wine that Xiao Chen gave me, and tricked me into breaking the other jar? This is so hateful, you two bastards!" Nangong Yan, who understood, was furious.
"Hey Fourth Sister!, it's our fault to drink all the jars of wine, but you did it yourself to break the other jar, we didn't force you!" Nangong Yi said leisurely, he finished the last sip of wine in his cup.
"I don't care, you bastard! Quickly return my wine!" Nangong Yan shook Nangong Xiong's shoulders desperately, unwilling to say. Poor Nangong Xiong had already drunk high, and it was already very reluctant to be able to sit still today. After Nangong Yan shook like this, he couldn't bear it anymore, he 'plopped' and fell from the chair, and after he landed, there was no movement.
"Third brother, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?" "Don't scare me!" Seeing this, Nangong Yan panicked, but at this time, Nangong Xiong had no sound at all.
"Big brother, big brother, take a look, what's wrong with the third brother?" Nangong Yan, who was crying with a sad face, hurriedly cast a look at his eldest brother for help. But I saw that my eldest brother suddenly fell on top of his wheelchair, and there was no movement anymore.
"Big brother, third brother, don't scare me!" At this time, Nangong Yan was frightened stupid by this sudden change, her eyes were glazed, and she collapsed on the ground weakly. Why is his eldest brother and third brother like this? Could it be that wine is poisonous? This is impossible, Ah Fu is definitely not such a person!
But what's going on?
At this moment, only two low snoring sounds could be heard slowly. Nangong Yan was stunned at first, then overjoyed, and finally furious. Good guys, these two guys drank too much and fell asleep, causing me to shed so many tears in vain.
Nangong Yan longed for these two hateful guys to come up for a while, but she couldn't bear to fall when her hand was raised in the air. Nangong Yan gritted her teeth, stomped her foot, and went straight to the door. But she didn't notice that not long after she left, the two sleeping guys suddenly opened their eyes.
The two of them gave each other a thumbs up at the same time and smiled knowingly. It's all in plain sight.
"Mom, look, these are all ours!" Xiao Chen opened the box containing the silver taels in front of Mama Xu, and the dazzling light was about to dazzle Mama Xu's eyes. Xiao Chen looked at Mother Xu proudly, hoping to see his mother show an extremely excited expression. But he was disappointed, and Xu's mother's face became more and more cold.
"You can't steal these, right? Child, I can't imagine that you are such a person, you are so disappointed to me! Although we are very poor, if you do such a thing, how can you have the face to raise your head to meet people in the future?" Xu's mother covered her face and sobbed in a low voice.
"Mom. You listen to me explain, things are not what you think..."At this time, Xiao Chen really had a feeling of crying and laughing, but at the same time, an inexplicable feeling ignited in his heart. But in order not to worry about his kind mother, Xiao Chen once again lied against his will.
In Xiao Chen's words, he was going out with a few friends and accidentally found a treasure. After that, everyone turned this treasure into cash.
"You didn't lie to me?" Mama Xu was still staring at Xiao Chen's eyes.
"Absolutely not. Otherwise, in a few days, I will bring those friends of mine, and you can ask them in person?" In order to avoid his mother's gaze, Xiao Chen hurriedly walked behind Mother Xu and gently kneaded it for her. The kneading that was just right made Xu Ma let out a pleasant sigh.
"Kid, no. I'm sure you wouldn't lie to your mother. I think this money will be saved for you to use when you ask for a daughter-in-law in the future. ”
"I understand, Mom!" At this time, Xiao Chen could only shake his head and smile bitterly. Xu Ma, who was enjoying herself with her eyes closed, suddenly felt that something seemed to be on her wrist. She opened her eyes and saw that on her right wrist, there was actually a jade bracelet with a green color and a warm touch.
"Mom, this is my gift to you. Do you like it!" Xiao Chen asked softly.
"Like, like. It's just that this costs a lot of money, right?" "Mom, don't worry. This is the cheapest in the jade shop, and it's not worth a few bucks!" In order to reassure Mother Xu, Xiao Chen lied again. In fact, this jade bracelet was the most expensive in the jade shop that Xiao Chen bought. But in Xiao Chen's mind, for his mother, who loves him deeply, such a gift is still too light.
"That's right, Mom! I'm going to go out with the four girls tomorrow! Don't worry, I'll be back in a few days!" After a moment's hesitation, Xiao Chen finally said.
"Where are you going?" asked Xu Ma subconsciously.
"I don't know this or this, I just listened to the four girls, take me around, and have a long insight!" In order not to worry the old man in front of him, Xiao Chen deliberately concealed it.
"That's fine!" Mother Xu didn't have the slightest doubt, she nodded, "Child, you are also old, and you can't stay in Nangong Mansion all the time, it's time to go out for a walk and see more!"
"By the way, child, when you are away from home, your mother is not by your side, you have to learn to take care of yourself!"
"Mom, I will!" the warm current rose in my heart again.
"Child, since you plan to go out with Sixiaojei tomorrow, Mom will go and prepare for you now!" Xu Ma turned around and left, but suddenly stopped.
"Look at my brain, it's easy to forget! By the way, kid, here's a letter from you!" Xu's mother patted her head, and she suddenly remembered something. Mother Xu hurriedly walked to the table and took a black letterhead.
"My letter?" Xiao Chen asked casually, "Mom, who sent it?"
"I don't know. Mother Xu shook her head blankly, "I knew that as soon as I entered this room, I saw this letter!"
"Is it?" Xiao Chen took the letter and found that there were three words written on it, Xiao Chenqi, and his handwriting was vigorous and powerful. Xiao Chen took the letter from the letterhead and shook it open. This letter is written very simply: Xiao Chen, when you come back, come to the back garden to see me. ”
"Who is this?" Xiao Chen was puzzled. If someone from outside Nangong Mansion sent it, then why did you invite me to meet me in the back garden of Nangong Mansion? But if it was someone from inside Nangong Mansion, what could not be said to my face?
Xiao Chen thought for a moment, and suddenly laughed, this must be a prank, it will never be wrong. And those who like to play this kind of trick, except for the four girls, there will never be anyone else! It seems that until now, her anger has not disappeared!
"Mom, I'll go out. I'll be right back. Xiao Chen smiled. Although I know that this is just a prank, if I don't go, I'm afraid it will make the four girls even more crazy. Forget it, I'm afraid of you!
"Why, just came back, you have to go out again!" Mother Xu was stunned.
"No, Mom, it's just that a friend wants to ask me to meet in the back garden. Xiao Chen smiled bitterly.
"Friend?" Mama Xu looked at Xiao Chen's eyes suspiciously, "It can't be a love letter from a maid in the house, right?" But it's no wonder, my child is so handsome, of course he will be liked by many girls. But son, I don't think you should go, I'll go, let her die of this heart. Son, you know, the second xiaojie and the fourth xiaojie are very interesting to you, if you can please one of them, I will die of happiness!"
"Mom, what are you talking nonsense! Look at the handwriting, it's clearly a man. You're thinking too much!" Xiao Chen hurriedly flashed out of the door. If you continue like this, your scalp will crack.
The back garden, as beautiful as ever, is as quiet as ever. But among the flowers, there stood a man dressed in black. Why, it's not the four girls. Xiao Chen, who clearly saw his back, was stunned.
"Xiao Chen, are you here?" as if he had eyes behind his back. Before Xiao Chen could get closer, the cold voice of the man in black came.
"Hmm. Are you looking for me?" Xiao Chen frowned, although his voice sounded unfamiliar, but the back gave him a sense of déjà vu.
"Not bad. The man in black finally turned around. Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, how could it be him? Xiao Chen finally remembered. This person is clearly the mysterious man in black who was near Qiu Shuizhuang and had killed the thieves who had slipped through the net.
"Xiao Chen, my name is Xu Sheng. It's the shadow guard of the Third Young Master of Nangong!" The man in black nodded towards Xiao Chen. Yes, this person is Xu Sheng, who is extremely brave among the people who exterminated General Cao's subordinates.
"What are you looking for me?"
"This is for you!" Xu Sheng kicked at a box beside him. With a 'bang', the gold, silver and jewelry were scattered all over the ground.
"What do you mean by that?" Xiao Chen asked coldly. And when he saw the other party seeing so many gold and silver treasures, he could still keep his composure. Xu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then nodded incessantly.
"For you, these things are enough for you to do whatever you want!" Xu Sheng glanced at the gold, silver and jewelry scattered all over the place, "Xiao Chen, you have been at Nangong's house for a while, and the few things you have done during this period are not something that ordinary people can accomplish. Your performance surprised everyone in Nangong Mansion. Xiao Chen, you are young, talented and intelligent, plus open-minded and sincere. I'm sure you're going to be a great thing!"
Xu Sheng took a long breath, "Xiao Chen, a man is alive, who doesn't want to be vigorous? Who is willing to spend his life in plain and insipid? But Xiao Chen, if you only stay in Nangong Mansion as a servant for the rest of your life, you will never have a chance to make a name for yourself." Xiao Chen, are you willing?"
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Xiao Chen said with his eyebrows tightened.
"It's very simple, leaving the Nangong family, the vast world outside is the world suitable for you Xiao Chen. ”
"But..."Xiao Chen hesitated, in fact, he had been thinking about this issue for a long time. Xiao Chen understands that if he wants to know the whereabouts of his parents, he must have strong enough strength. But if you always stay in Nangong Mansion, how can your strength improve rapidly?
"The only way to improve your strength quickly is to travel the world and constantly challenge those who are stronger than you. Fighting is always more effective than hard training!" King Kong's words from the past still floated in Xiao Chen's ears.
