Chapter 178: A Strip of Water

Although Tongbao Pavilion was just a shop, the space here was large and the facilities were no less complete than any sect Ruan Ruan had seen before.

It is divided into four floors, the first floor is the ordinary trading hall, the second floor is the VIP area, the third floor is the residence of the pavilion master and the deacons, and the fourth floor is the most mysterious and can never be opened.

At this time, Ruan Ruan and the three of them were in an elegant single room on the second floor, receiving a little bit of fragrant tea.

"I'm sorry, let me introduce myself, I'm the supervisor here, Lin Ruoxuan. ”

The crisp voice of the middle-aged woman is like a pearl falling on a jade plate, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

"Thank you Director Lin for upholding justice and returning our innocence. ”

Ruan Ruan looked at the graceful woman in front of her, and had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

"I just disturbed you, so I specially invite you to come here to talk about it. ”

Lin Ruoxuan took out the mixed yuan blue wave and put it in front of the three of them.

"A little heart, and I hope you don't refuse. ”

Her actions surprised the three of them, and they didn't understand what she meant.

"Let's handle it according to the regulations, and we can't let Director Lin break the bank. ”

Ruan Ruan knows the truth of being soft on people, and doesn't want to owe a favor because of this.

"It's okay, this magic weapon hasn't been sold for a long time, and it's a fate that you can meet it. ”

Lin Ruoxuan didn't take a penny, and she looked very atmospheric.

"How does this make Tongbao Pavilion keep doing this kind of loss-making business. ”

Ruan Ruan's heart was full of questions, he and the others had no background here, and they should not be treated with such courtesy.

"It's just a treasure, of course, it's to be given to someone who is destined. ”

Lin Ruoxuan smiled slightly, and it could be seen that her attitude was very sincere.

"The jade bracelet on this little sister's wrist is very beautiful, can you lend me a look? ”

She rolled her eyes and looked at Yuqing with a look of anticipation.

Yuqing felt that her previous attitude was friendly, and she did not refuse her request.

She took off the jade bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Lin Ruoxuan.

Lin Ruoxuan took the bracelet and observed it carefully, as if she was holding a peerless treasure in her hand.

As she watched, tears welled up in her eyes.

Her palms were slender and white, and she gently rubbed the bracelet, stunned.

After a while, she felt her gaffe and handed the bracelet back to Yuqing.

"I don't know who gave you this bracelet, little sister. ”

Lin Ruoxuan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, regained her previous calm appearance, and smiled.

When this bracelet came out of Tianxing Academy, Lin Xiangrou handed it to Yuqing with her own hands.

Yuqing didn't know the other party's intentions, and hesitated for a while, not knowing whether to tell her or not.

Seeing the smile on her face, Yuqing was finally melted by her enthusiasm.

"It was given to me by my mentor. ”

Yuqing didn't directly say Lin Xiangrou's name, so she could only say vaguely.

"Your mentor, her name is Lin Xiangrou. ”

Lin Ruoxuan's words surprised Ruan Ruan and Yuqing.

This place is far away from the mountains and rivers of Tiancang Continent, how can anyone know Lin Xiangrou.

Seeing the expressions of the two, Lin Ruoxuan proved the guess in her heart even more.

"To be honest, Tongbao Pavilion is the property of the Lin family, and this bracelet is a unique token of the Lin family, so I can see it at a glance. ”

The news revealed by Lin Ruoxuan shocked the two even more.

They never thought that Lin Xiangrou still had such a secret.

Tongbao Pavilion, which has been able to stand in Anping Mansion for many years, also has a relationship with the lord of the mansion.

This Lin family runs the Tongbao Pavilion, and it is obviously one of the largest forces here.

Lin Xiangrou is a member of the Lin family, she is burdened with such a prominent family background, why should she hide in the remote Tiancang Continent.

There must be something hidden in this.

"I don't know how Director Lin knows Mentor Lin. ”

Yuqing didn't expect that a jade bracelet would expose Lin Xiangrou's news.

Remembering the look on her face before leaving, she began to worry about whether she was in trouble.

"I am Lin Xiangrou's sister and the eldest lady of the Lin family. ”

Lin Ruoxuan's beautiful eyes flashed with a moving light.

Yuqing finally understood why she had that special sense of familiarity when she saw Lin Ruoxuan.

Lin Xiangrou's shadow can be seen in her.

The only difference is that Lin Ruoxuan looks more mature and capable than Lin Xiangrou, and Lin Xiangrou has a stronger affinity.

The difference in environment creates a difference in temperament.

"So, we're all family, and now you can accept my gift. ”

Lin Ruoxuan saw that they were all silent, so she hurriedly adjusted the atmosphere.

For this sudden change in relationship, Ruan Ruan and Yuqing are still a little uncomfortable.

It's so small to be able to meet old people here.

In the dark, these inextricable connections make people feel unexpectedly moved.

"Since it is Director Lin's heart, we are disrespectful. ”

Yuqing's personality is lively and simple, and she is very excited about this magic weapon, so she no longer refuses.

With this relationship, several people began to talk more and more.

"My little sister and I have been separated for many years, and I don't know how she is living now. ”

Lin Ruoxuan still wants to know more about her sister. The teenager in front of her is full of youthful vitality, making her feel as if she is back to her youthful appearance.

Yuqing described the scene in the academy in a gurgling voice, making Lin Ruoxuan nod uncontrollably.

"She's never talked about it, and it seems that she's still haunted by the past. ”

Lin Ruoxuan knew from Yuqing's words that Lin Xiangrou had become the tutor of Tianxing Academy, and she was also very relieved in her heart.

Lin Xiangrou's past?

This is something that Ruan Ruan and Yuqing have never understood.

They always thought that Lin Xiangrou was from a big family in the imperial city, but they didn't know that she still had a background like the Lin family.

She concealed this life experience, and there must be unknown bitterness.

This is also what Ruan Ruan and Yuqing are most confused about, what happened in the middle of being able to make her run from the bustling Anping Mansion to the isolated Tiancang Continent.

"It's all in the past, and I'm not afraid of your jokes. ”

Lin Ruoxuan provoked this conversation, and Ruan Ruan Ruan and Yuqing both pricked up their ears and listened quietly.

"The Lin family's ability to take charge of Tongbao Pavilion is entirely due to a marriage with the City Lord's Mansion. ”

Lin Ruoxuan's eyes became confused, and she fell into the memories of the past.

"The City Lord's Mansion of Anping Mansion is the highest authority in charge of this place. At the edge of the Forgotten Lands is the Terrans' most fortified fortress. The Lin family was also a big family in the north of the city before, but its power was the weakest, and it was in danger of being swallowed up by other families at any time. The head of the Lin family, that is, my father and Xiangrou, has been trying to improve the status of the family. There are a mixture of dragons and snakes here, and if you don't have enough strength, you can't gain a foothold. The father only has two daughters under his knees, and he is afraid that no one will inherit the family business, which is also the reason why he is worried. ”

Ruan Ruan deeply felt the helplessness in her tone, no matter where it was, it wasn't always like this.

Strength represents the foundation of the foothold, and without strength, you need to have a strong backer.

"Lord Qi Daoyuan, the lord of the City Lord's Mansion, has three sons, and the eldest son, Qi Beiming, married the young lady of the Feng family. The Feng Gongzi you met today is a side of the Feng family. ”

Ruan Ruan finally understood why the guy who wore a swagger in the market was so arrogant.

This is also the sorrow of the big family, the overly rich life, which has created a mixed balance in the family.

"The second son of the Qi family, but he married you?"

Yuqing tilted her head and said her guess.

"Yes, exactly. Qi Beicha is my husband. ”

Lin Ruoxuan looked at Yuqing, this girl is really cute and weird.

Seven cups of tea?

Ruan Ruan almost squirted out the tea in his mouth, but he immediately controlled himself, so that Lin Ruoxuan, who was sitting opposite, did not make a fool of himself.

"My father originally wanted to marry Xiangrou to the third son, but he didn't pray. But Xiaomei didn't want this marriage, she didn't want to entrust herself to someone she had never met. ”

Lin Ruoxuan sighed, for the development of the family, women are usually reduced to the weight of power, and being a woman is also a sadness.

She actually supports Lin Xiangrou's decision, she doesn't want her sister to be the same as herself, she has her own ideas and dares to pursue her own path.

Ruan Ruan and Yuqing finally understood the ins and outs.

Lin Xiangrou didn't want to be a tool for marriage, so she didn't hesitate to run away from home.

I don't know what kind of process she went through before she moved to the Tiancang Continent, and it is estimated that Xia Jianghe's support is indispensable in the middle.

"I wouldn't be willing to. ”

Yuqing's little face was serious, which made Lin Ruoxuan a little funny.

Of course, she is not afraid of heaven and earth at her age, and she has never encountered such a scene.

Then Yuqing's words made her almost faint.

"Seven steps down, this is too weak. ”
