Through the blue gauze curtains, the deep and shallow green shades are dazzling, and the calls of knowledge come and go.

On the octagonal dining table of the rich peony Yang Limu, the six cold dishes and six plates of candied fruit in the first round were removed one after another, and the maids rushed in, served the twelve hot dishes of the second round, and bowed down.

A five-short gourmet stood beside the table, his head was as big as a bucket, garlic nostrils, pig's nose was long and thick, and his dark green skin was full of wrinkles.

"This is a raccoon dog from the scorching wilderness, which was offered by a small family a few days ago, and it is also a rare thing, An'er might as well try it. Yuan Wan sat upright, raised her chopsticks, and gently scratched on a basin of dishes covered with red bean sauce, the steam was thick, revealing the pieces of snow-white flesh petals inside, and the strong fragrance overflowed, lingering around the table for a long time.

When Zhi Hunt really heard it, he only felt refreshed and full of energy.

The gluttonous man proudly introduced: "Near some 10,000-year-old craters in the Yan Wilderness, there is a strange plant that grows with a bright color and attractive fragrance. After being swallowed by the local raccoon dog, not only can it not be digested, but the fruit will absorb the essence of flesh and blood in its body, continue to grow, and gradually merge with the organs of the raccoon beast, until it finally breaks out of the abdomen and turns into essence.

Before it breaks the abdomen, it is hunted and killed, and after eighteen preparations such as soaking, soaking, and frying, it is then cooked in a simmering pot for half an hour, and finally it is accompanied by the secret sauce of our clan, and the juice is collected on high heat. The taste is like meat but not meat, like fruit but not fruit, and it is said to be the best delicious product that nourishes vitality. ”

"Thank you, old lady. Zhi Zhenzhen got up and picked up a piece of raccoon dog meat petals, handed it to Zhao Dieniang who was sitting next to him, and said respectfully, "Please use it first." Then I took a slice of my own.

The meat petal is broken as soon as you bite it, and the tender and smooth fine meat melts into delicious juice in the mouth, and the strong meat aroma and sweet fruit aroma are fused together, the sweet and salty complement each other, and the aftertaste is endless, and at the same time, the internal organs give birth to a warm essence, and the blood flow is also a little smoother.

"An'er, you have been practicing swords hard these days, so you have to eat more to replenish your body. Zhao Dieniang scooped a spoonful of viscous and transparent crystal Jiao paste, dipped it in a thousand-year-old black sesame milk, put it in a real bowl of Zhijiao, and wiped the sauce at the corner of his mouth with a silk handkerchief.

The gluttonous chef couldn't help but say: "The crystal Jiao paste has a sweet taste, and it is suitable for light nine-section lotus root juice." He stepped forward and personally prepared half a bowl, sprinkled a pinch of red roses, and presented it to Zhijiazhen.

"My mother has worked hard for me for more than ten years, and I should make up for it. Zhi Zhenzhen handed the bowl to Zhao Dieniang again, and the two looked like a mother and a son.

Yuan Wan smiled: "Dieniang, you have been in the Hou Mansion for some time, are you still used to living?"

"Thank you for your care. Zhao Dieniang said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Peace of mind is home." Whether it is a deep mountain or a mansion, as long as An'er is here, I will be used to living as a mother. ”

Yuan Wan stared at her fixedly. Zhao Dieniang just lowered her head, and the wooden hairpin pendant inserted in the cloud bun hung down, covering her eyebrows.

The huge dining room was silent, the three of them had their own thoughts, and the summer cicadas outside were becoming more and more lively. The sunlight leaked through the curtains, like wisps of bright water waves.

"Dieniang, I know that the Hou Mansion has treated you slowly over the years, and you will inevitably have resentment in your heart, which is human nature. Yuan Wan stared at Zhao Dieniang for a while, "But as the saying goes, you can only come after hardship." Now An'er has a future, and it can be regarded as a light lintel. You mother-in-law boiled out, and your face is also bright. Those old things, you don't have to torture yourself in your heart. The biological mother of the little marquis of Yongning always has to have some belly, doesn't she?"

"That's what the old lady said. Whether it's slow treatment or bad treatment, I, a poor man, have to endure it. Zhao Dieniang still lowered her head, hiding a sneer from the corner of her eyes, and let it slowly solidify. I thought Yuan Wan was a simple straight person, but I thought it was also a vulgar thing with the eyes of power. I used to ignore myself, but now Yuan An has just entered the Taoist gate, and he has come to the door to feast.

"That's right, you've grown. Even if it is bitter gall to swallow, you have to smile and say sweet, and then swallow it. Because this is the Yongning Hou Mansion, the Boling Yuan clan, not the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, the deserted village and wild town. Yuan Wan's tone was flat, not angry but threatening, "When you enter this vermilion lacquer gate, you must bear something, this is the family, and it is the noble blood inheritance." By the way, there is a party in the Golden Branch Pavilion tomorrow, and you can go too. Make more connections, learn something, and help An'er. ”

The Golden Branch Pavilion is formed by a group of noble ladies and ladies of princely families, who often talk about the wind and the moon together, and write poems on the qin, which is the most elegant. Zhao Dieniang was silent for a moment and responded in a low voice.

"As for An'er—" Yuan Wan changed her words, "Although the Thunder Cliff of the Taishang Shenxiao Sect has been prerecorded, it is not all right. There are factions everywhere, and no matter how talented you are, you are alone. The Boling Yuan clan is quite powerful in the Taishang Shenxiao Sect, and it is still of some use to An'er. ”

Zhi Hunt really listened to the needle-sharp wheat mangs revealed by the words of the two, and silently calculated. Yongning Hou must try to get rid of it, and then it should be Zhao Dieniang's turn, the former needs to plan carefully, maybe start with Tuke's master?

"I listen to my mother. He wasted no time in saying.

The hairpin pendant on Zhao Dieniang's bun trembled slightly.

Yuan Wan frowned inadvertently: "As a mother, I hope you are well." An'er, these days, there are a lot of people who come to give gifts, right?"

Zhi Hunt Zhen said: "Back to the old lady, in addition to the Xie family, the Wang family and my original family, the other twelve county families, as well as dozens of small families and cold families, also gave generous gifts, and later I asked Wang Changshi to give the gift list to the old lady. ”

"Not only did you give gifts, but you also gave them away, right?" asked Yuan Wan with a smile.

"Yes, I also sent a lot of courtesans and dancers, as well as a dozen or so virgin stoves that can be replenished. Zhi Hunt really said quietly, he deliberately accepted these women in order to facilitate the admission of the guests. The girl of the Hehuan faction disguised herself as a dancing girl, and she stayed in the house for a few days, and she was safe and guarded, and she didn't have any trouble.

"What are you going to do with it?" asked Yuan Wan with a smirk.

Zhi Hunt Zhen pondered for a moment and said, "It's just something outside the body. ”

"Well said!" Yuan Wan nodded approvingly, "You are now famous and healthy, and you are known as the most talented young swordsman of our human race, you must guard against arrogance and rashness, keep your heart, and don't become the second in the river and be ridiculed." She hesitated for a moment, and then said, "You pre-recorded Thunder Cliff this time, and the old body has nothing foreign to give you." Years ago, I witnessed a peerless sword technique that you can learn from. ”

The ivory chopsticks in Yuan Wan's hand were slightly warped, as if they had instantly turned into a sharp sword, and the invisible cold light came out, and the temperature of the dining room couldn't help but drop, as if falling into an ice cave, and the sound of cicadas outside the curtain seemed to freeze.

Zhi Hunt was really shocked.

The teeth and chopsticks spread, and the sword light slowly swept up......

With a bang, outside the True Divine Wandering Object, the sword light trance brought him to the top of the void mountain in the spiritual world: his long sword spread, and the sword light that swept up merged with this sword, like a lonely feather wing flying to the end of heaven and earth.

The vast heaven and earth seemed to be separated by a sword, blooming with the most dazzling light. This sword is independent and stunning, as if it is the supreme realm that countless sword cultivators dream of, and Yuan Wan is just a little superficial.

After a long time, Zhi Hunti Zhen slowly came back to his senses. Yuan Wan and the glutton had left at some point, Zhao Dieniang looked at him thoughtfully, and the dishes on the table were replaced by the third round of sweet soup melons and fruits, and frosty ice cheese.

"The old lady said that you are immersed in the sword intent perception of this sword, and it is not appropriate to disturb, and she also wants me to tell you that Thunder Cliff has gone to the highest and is the head of the first gate of the Great Jin Dynasty. Zhao Dieniang stood up and slowly walked to the curtain, her jade face was reflected in the wisps of hot summer sun, still like soaked in ice water.

Zhi Hunt Zhen smiled faintly, is the Bo Ling Yuan clan going to invest a lot of money on himself?

"If so, if An'er is still there...... He, can he get ahead in the Yuan clan like you?" After a long time, Zhao Dieniang suddenly asked faintly.

Zhi Hunti really froze for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Xia Cicada kept screaming lively, but the figures of the two became more and more silent.
