Volume 1 Chapter 24 The Qin Family
"Ouch, Childe, where are you going?"
Seeing Jiang Fan coming from downstairs, the shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward to inquire enthusiastically. For this generous son, the shopkeeper has a deep memory.
When he saw Qin Xue behind Jiang Fan, a hint of envy flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes.
Although Qin Xue had put on a cyan veil at this moment to hide her appearance, through the tulle, she could still vaguely glimpse her graceful face.
At this moment, Qin Xue was silent, standing quietly behind Jiang Fan, like a little woman walking with her husband.
"Well, I'm going to go on a long trip." Jiang Fan nodded in response, then took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper, and said softly: "You don't have to look for it, you have worked hard for this time." ”
"Oops! Childe, you're really so kind! Next time, if the son comes to Ziyang City again, please be sure to visit the 'Moon Tower' again! The shopkeeper said goodbye with a smile on his face.
After leaving the inn, the two came to the bustling street.
Originally, Jiang Fan planned to put Qin Xue directly into the Qiankun bag, which would also reduce some trouble, after all, the death of the young master of the Feng family was not a trivial matter.
However, Qin Xue didn't want to do this, and if there was no Qin Xue to lead the way now, Jiang Fan really didn't know where the Qin family was.
"Jiang Fan, there is a jewelry store over there, can you accompany me to take a look?" Before Jiang Fan could react, Qin Xue had already held his hand tightly and walked quickly towards the stall.
"Qin ......" Jiang Fan originally wanted to stop it, but in the end he swallowed the words in his mouth.
At this time, there were many people, and Jiang Fan didn't dare to call Qin Xue's name directly. After all, who knows if Feng Tianba's men will lurk nearby, although they had destroyed the body last night, Feng Tianba's death must be related to Qin Xue.
"Oh, this girl has such a good eye, this is the signature earrings of our small store - mandarin duck pendant. There is only this pair in the entire Ziyang City, which can make lovers become married! "The shopkeeper is a middle-aged woman with a beautiful face, and naturally she knows how to please customers.
"Jiang Fan, is it good-looking?" Qin Xue picked up this pair of purple mandarin duck earrings, asked softly, and handed them to Jiang Fan.
"It's beautiful!" Jiang Fan replied subconsciously.
Then, he looked up at the middle-aged woman and asked, "Shopkeeper, how much are these earrings?" ”
"Childe, only five taels of silver." The middle-aged woman replied enthusiastically.
"Okay, I'll buy it." After speaking, Jiang Fan took out five taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman who took the silver smiled enthusiastically, and hurriedly praised: "Childe is really unique, although I can't see the girl's face clearly, but I can also feel that the girl is not an ordinary woman." Childe, you are truly blessed! ”
"Shop, in fact, we ......," Jiang Fan hurriedly explained.
"Childe, you don't need to explain, the old woman, I am from here, and I understand it in my heart." The middle-aged woman smiled knowingly.
Faced with such a situation, Jiang Fan could only shake his head helplessly and stopped talking.
"Jiang Fan, help me put on the earrings!" Qin Xue stared at Jiang Fan affectionately and handed him the earrings in her hand.
Jiang Fan looked at this scene, couldn't help blushing and heartbeat, and replied hesitantly: "Qin Xue, this may not be appropriate, right?" ”
Qin Xue covered her mouth and chuckled, and said mischievously: "Okay, okay, don't be shy!" You wooden idiot. After speaking, Qin Xue lifted the curtain and personally put the pair of mandarin duck earrings on her earlobes.
When Qin Xue turned her head slightly, the breeze blew, and the earrings swayed, like butterflies dancing in the sea of violet flowers, adding a bit of mysterious charm to her face.
Looking at Qin Xue, who was once cold and beautiful, now showing tenderness and the appearance of a little woman, Jiang Fan fell into confusion for a while.
"Qin Xue, aren't you curious about my background?" Jiang Fan couldn't help but ask.
Qin Xue replied with a smile: "Jiang Fan, as long as you are sincere to me, I don't care about your identity or your origin. ”
Jiang Fan was slightly stunned after hearing this, and his heart was a little trance-like. He didn't know if his insignificant cultivation was a blessing or a curse to have such a beautiful woman right now?
But he knew that since what happened last night, his life was destined to be inextricably linked to the woman in front of him. Because, he can't be a cold-blooded person.
"Alright, let's go home." After Qin Xue finished speaking, she took Jiang Fan's hand again and walked briskly through the crowd.
Looking at Qin Xue's back and recalling the scene when he saw Qin Xue for the first time, Jiang Fan couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
……
Under the guidance of Qin Xue, the two quickly came to the door of the Qin family's mansion, and did not encounter any accidents along the way. Everything seemed too peaceful, after all, a considerable amount of time had passed since Feng Tianba's death.
The Qin family's mansion was located in the southeast of Ziyang City, while the Feng family was located in the northwest, and the two families were mortal enemies.
Recently, the Feng family, with the help of the Xuantian Sect monks, has been continuously eroding the Qin family's business. Soon after, the entire Qin family will be swallowed up by the Feng family, and the reason for all this is only because the Qin family elder is seriously ill.
"Let's go!" Qin Xue came to the door of her house and subconsciously let go of the hand holding Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan nodded in response, thinking in his heart: "It seems that she still has some concerns, but I am too worried." Just now, he was still worried that if Qin Xue continued to hold his hand openly, he tried his best to think about how to deal with the reaction of the Qin family's elders.
"It's the eldest lady who is back!" As soon as the two approached, the guard outside the mansion door shouted loudly.
At this moment, the Qin Mansion was obviously heavily guarded, and there were four monks standing outside the door to escort them.
"Four cultivators of the third layer of the Spiritual Qi Realm, it seems that the Qin family is indeed a huge family." Looking at the guards outside the mansion and recalling his original cultivation, Jiang Fan couldn't help but sigh lightly.
As soon as the two of them walked into the Qin family's compound, a white-haired old man walked up with a smile: "Miss, are you back?" ”
"Well, Heber!" Qin Xue replied with a smile.
This white-haired old man is Qin Wanhai, the housekeeper of the Qin family, who is over 100 years old, has served the Qin family for two generations, and has now reached the late stage of the Lingquan Realm.
Then, Qin Wanhai asked, "Miss, I don't know if you went to the Treasure Pavilion and found a spirit grass that can heal the patriarch?" ”
Qin Xue directly took out the Nine Turns Spirit Vine from the storage bag and said with a smile: "Hai Bo, this Nine Turns Spirit Vine is known as the king of detoxification, and it can remove nearly a hundred kinds of poisons in the world. I believe that after taking it, my father's condition will definitely improve. ”
"yes, everything will be fine." Qin Wanhai looked at the Nine Turns Spirit Vine in Qin Xue's hand and frowned.
Maybe it was a bystander, Jiang Fan always felt that this white-haired old man was a little unusual, but he didn't speak.
Then, Qin Wanhai looked at Jiang Fan on the side and asked, "Miss, who is this son?" ”
"Haibo, his name is Jiang Fan. Thanks to him this time, otherwise Qin Xue might never see you again. Qin Xue said with some excitement.
"Oh? Why did the young lady say that? Qin Wanhai frowned, as if he was looking forward to Qin Xue's answer.
However, Qin Wanhai's reaction naturally did not escape Jiang Fan's careful observation.
