Chapter 55: Before You Go Out

Coming downstairs, Ding Zhengyi adjusted his expression, exhaled softly, and then stepped into the dining hall.

In the dining hall, Wu and Xiaoqiu were busy placing the dishes and chopsticks, and the four dishes and one soup on the table were extremely exquisite, and they were still steaming at this time.

In the past, unless a guest came to visit, Ding Zhengyi's lunch would generally not exceed two dishes, after all, the monks did not pay much attention to these complicated things, and the limited time had to be spent on cultivation.

Although the Wu clan is not interested in cultivation, she needs her help in taking care of Lingtian and daily chores, so there is no condition to pay attention to the desire of the tongue.

Since returning the rented family Lingtian, she and Ding Zhongyuan went to the family's ordinary town many times, where they enjoyed the mundane food that never got tired of eating, and the Wu family reformed the family's food.

Not only did the number of dishes increase, but also the color and flavor were complete, and this change made Ding Zhengyi quite happy, even if he didn't care much about what he ate, but it was a pleasure to be able to feast on it.

Looking away from the dishes on the table, Ding Zhengyi saw that Wu took a rice bowl, holding the rice with an expressionless face, and did not keep chatting with Xiaoqiu as before, what she showed at the moment was just a listless and lazy appearance.

"It's early to come down today. ”

Seeing Ding Zhengyi walk in, Wu nodded slightly, and his face was a little more energetic.

"I smelled the smell of the food and my stomach rumbled. ”

Ding Zhengyi was afraid that what he said truthfully would bring unnecessary worries to the Wu family, so he simply gaged.

"You're all right, are you?"

Knowing her son Mo Ruomu, Wu immediately noticed that something was wrong with Ding Zhengyi, she put down the rice bowl in her hand, and asked with concern.

"What could it be, everything went well. ”

Touching his nose and snorting, Ding Zheng took the opportunity to move a chair and sit down sideways.

"Today's meal is so delicious. ”

Ding Zhongyuan's hearty voice sounded outside the canteen at the right time, and as the voice came, his figure also appeared outside the canteen door.

"Hurry up and wash your hands and get ready to eat, by the way, is there anything worth talking about today?"

Ding Zhongyuan's arrival successfully attracted Wu's attention, and her interest was obviously much higher.

"Don't mention it, I've sat all morning in vain, it's not the busy farming season, what will happen. ”

Entering the dining hall, Ding Zhongyuan, who was about to sit down, replied with a pout, his tone was far less natural than just now.

"Oh, let's eat then. ”

When Wu heard Ding Zhongyuan's answer, he was obviously a little disappointed, and said absent-mindedly.

Next, the family picked up their own dishes and chopsticks and ate lunch in silence, which was also the most normal scene when Ding Zhengyi ate at home during this time.

Although the dishes were delicious, except for Xiaoqiu, the other three people did not eat it, Ding Zhongyuan and his wife were bored, so they ate without a pair, and their faces flashed with memories from time to time.

And Ding Zhengyi felt very uncomfortable because he saw his parents' lonely appearance, so he slowly pulled the meal, and he was not in the mood to savor it.

According to the rhythm of the past, Ding Zhengyi would finish eating first, and then quickly run upstairs to cultivate, out of sight and out of mind, only when he was immersed in cultivation, he would temporarily forget these worries.

Today, Ding Zhengyi seemed a little abnormal, I saw him chewing slowly, eating his meals in an orderly manner, and exchanging words with Xiaoqiu from time to time.

This made Ding Zhongyuan and his wife stunned, and the corners of their mouths were occasionally stained with rice grains, and they didn't realize it.

"I want to go to my grandmother's house for the past two days, I haven't been there for many years, and I miss them a lot. ”

After eating, without waiting for Wu to ask the doubts in his heart, Ding Zhengyi directly gave the answer.

"You're going to grandma's house?"

Wu asked as if he hadn't heard clearly, plucking out his ears with doubts.

Ding Zhongyuan also opened his mouth wide on the side, but he couldn't make any sound, as if he was shocked by Ding Zhengyi's words, and he didn't come back to his senses.

"We went together, and I just wanted to meet my cousins who I had never met. ”

Ding Zhengyi also knew that because of his sudden change, they couldn't accept it for a while, so he repeated it again.

"What? You want to be a good guy again?"

Wu Shi heard Ding Zhengyi's affirmative answer, as if he had ignored the surprise at his change, and the tone of the questioning directly raised a few tones.

This is because in the family, Ding Zhengyi a few months ago was the representative of caring for the clan.

He exchanged hundreds of catties of yellow tooth rice and dozens of yellow bud pills, and sent them to the two brothers of Wenwu free of charge, which was revealed by the elders of the family, intentionally or unintentionally.

This made other clansmen envious, and at the same time, they also pinned their hopes on getting Ding Zhengyi's favor, so that not only the people of the side tribe, but even some of the descendants of the disciples also came to the door for help.

For this reason, Ding Zhongyuan and his wife didn't know how much saliva they had spent, and explained repeatedly, and the Wu family even showed up to say, pointing to her third-level Qi cultivation to prove that their family really had no extra resources.

In the end, after discussing with Ding Changshou, the matter was pushed onto him.

The external explanation is that Ding Changshou has too deep feelings for his eldest brother, so he ignored Ding Zhengyi's cultivation and instructed him to fund the two civil and military brothers.

This reason is reasonable, and it has also been acquiesced in by Ding Changshou.

This made the clansmen who had broken through the threshold gradually disperse, but Ding Zhongyuan and his wife knew the inside story, and they understood that this was Ding Zhengyi's idea.

Regarding Ding Zhengyi's taking out so many cultivation resources and giving them to the two brothers for free, Ding Zhongyuan and his wife originally resolutely disagreed, but in the face of Ding Zhengyi's insistence and Ding Changshou's support, they could only accept this result helplessly.

But for Xiaoqiu's rapid cultivation progress, Ding Zhongyuan and his wife also saw it in their eyes and knew it, but they didn't raise any objections to it.

I have to say that there is really no unified standard for the definition of intimacy, and Ding Zhengyi obviously has this feeling through this matter.

The Wenwu brothers can be said to be the nephews of Ding Zhongyuan and his wife, but they usually don't move around much, so they are more estranged.

And Xiaoqiu is nominally just Ding Zhengyi's maid, but because she has lived in this family for nearly ten years, the Wu family has a very deep affection for her, and the two of them talk as much as Ding Zhengyi and the two combined, so even if Ding Zhengyi spends a lot of resources on Xiaoqiu, they don't care.

This also made Ding Zhengyi troubled by the relationship between the clansmen, and he had been thinking about how to change the status quo all this time, but he had no clue.

Although Ding Zhongyuan and his wife reluctantly accepted the fact that Ding Zhengyi funded the Wenwu brothers, they were still influenced by the younger generations who flocked to the clan later, especially the Wu family, who was very sensitive to the words Ding Zhengyi said about brothers and sisters, so she had such a big reaction.

"Well, there's no such thing, I mean just look at relatives and get in touch with feelings. ”

Ding Zhengyi touched his head, he almost didn't understand why the Wu family was so excited, and after reacting instantly, he hurriedly explained.

"When do you think it's better to go? ”

Ding Zhongyuan finally came back to his senses at this time, came over with great interest, and interjected to ask Ding Zhengyi.

Ding Zhongyuan didn't care if there were any potential safety hazards on this road, he knew that with Ding Zhengyi's character, he would definitely consider it carefully.

"yes, when are you leaving?"

Wu also understood that she had overreacted a little just now, so she quickly shifted her attention to traveling.

Xiaoqiu also blinked her eyes on the side, with a very expectant look on her face.

"Tomorrow, let's leave early, and if we don't delay on the way, we'll be there in the evening. ”

Ding Zhengyi saw that the three of them were staring at him with burning eyes, and could only give the answer they wanted to hear the most.

Moreover, it is better for him to remove the obstacles in his cultivation sooner rather than later, and the sooner he regulates his emotional malhabits, the sooner he can resume normal cultivation.
