Chapter 140: The Jin Family
The carriage walked peacefully for a month, and Li Chenfeng, who was easy to trouble his physique, was really idle all day except for driving horses and horses.
The gradual appearance of the city wall in front of him undoubtedly cheered him up again, and after some process was saved, the carriage slowly drove into the gate of the city with the golden city written on it.
The two Jin Xueya sisters looked at the scene on the street through the door curtain, although it was the middle of winter, the shops on both sides of the street were still dazzling, and the various delicacies in the air undoubtedly did not make people swallow.
Compared with other places, there is not much difference in the number of people in Jincheng. The only difference is that in the past, people with sacks and patches of clothes could be seen everywhere on the streets, and there were even more beggars, and there were countless poor families.
The Jincheng in front of him is different, although not everyone is rich and rich, there are not many people with sackcloth patches, and there are few beggars on the street.
"Let's find a place to stay for the time being, and then make plans tomorrow. ”
Li Chenfeng opened the curtain and looked at the Jin family sisters.
Looking at the unfamiliar Jincheng, the sisters nodded, such a buffer is also good, if it goes straight to the topic, it is really a little difficult to accept, they are looking for their father, to be precise, the father who abandoned his wife and daughter!
After finding an inn at random, a few people settled down, ordered some meals at random, and filled their stomachs.
"Xiao Er, is there a family surnamed Jin in the city?" Li Chenfeng asked Xiao Er, who served the food to the table.
"The guest officer is a foreigner. The shopkeeper smiled politely.
Li Chenfeng nodded and did not deny it.
"Jincheng, there is only one family surnamed Jin, and the locals are known to everyone. ”
Looking at the shopkeeper with a look of adoration, Li Chenfeng was curious: "What's so special about this Jin family?"
The sisters stopped their chopsticks and listened carefully with their rice.
"Guest, then I'll have to tell you. The Jin family is not an ordinary family, the Jin family is a well-known martial arts family in Jincheng, and the ancestor of the Jin family defeated many martial arts masters with a golden sword technique, and climbed the status of the Jin family to the highest in one fell swoop. The shopkeeper's face was full of admiration.
"What about now?" Li Chenfeng didn't want to hear too many stories from the past, who didn't have a running account.
"Now, although it is not as domineering as when Jin Laozu was in time, it is still not to be underestimated, no one wants to provoke the Jin family, and the Jin family helps the poor on time, so few people in Jincheng starve to death, let alone freeze to death. ”
Li Chenfeng thought of the scarce beggars in the city, presumably the Jin family played a big role in this regard.
"Who else is in the Jin family now?" asked Li Chenfeng.
The shopkeeper didn't have any extra ideas, and he spit out everything he knew, and never hid it.
I learned from Xiao Er's mouth that the Jin family was not very prosperous, and Jin Laozu only left the descendants of Jin Maddao, and it happened that the same happened for Jin Maddao, and there was only one son under his knees, Jin Huaining.
Nine years ago, Jin Huaining took the eldest lady of the Song family as his wife, and he has not left any heirs until now. The people of Jincheng will talk about their own problems in their leisure time after dinner.
"Who is this Miss Song Family?" asked Li Chenfeng.
"Speaking of which, the Jin family has been getting worse and worse in recent years, the Song family has suddenly emerged over the years, and it has the strength to surpass the Jin family, and the personnel are extremely wide, and the incense is enough, so if you find it like this, you will surpass the Jin family sooner or later. ”
Some words may not dare to be said next year, the shopkeeper deliberately lowered his body and lowered his voice and said: "I heard that the reason why the Jin family got married was that I was afraid that one day the Song family would become the leader of Jincheng and not give the Jin family a way to live." ”
Listening to the gossip of Jincheng's interesting stories, I feel that there should be some Taoism in it, and there is no empty talk in the world.
Li Chenfeng rewarded Xiao Er with a piece of broken silver, which can be regarded as a reward for talking about so much saliva.
Xiao Er saluted twice and continued to serve the other tables.
Looking at the worried sisters, they didn't have much thought about the life and death of the Jin family, but if they had already married a wife, it was really difficult to accept.
"Don't worry, maybe Jin Huaining is not your father. Li Chenfeng comforted.
Jin Xueya nodded lightly and said that she didn't have to worry, but the dodge in her eyes couldn't be hidden.
After eating, several people went back to their rooms, and although the atmosphere was not depressing, there was an exceptionally silent mood.
Nothing to say all night!
On the second day, the sister of the Jin family came to the door of the guest room early, and when Li Chenfeng opened the door, she was startled by the older and younger sisters in front of the door.
"Brother Li, I want you to take us to the Jin family. Jin Xueya said.
Li Chenfeng knew that Jin Xueya was a little anxious, family affection was like the emotions that had accumulated in her heart, and now that her biological father was just around the corner, she would definitely not be able to wait for a single guest.
As for Jin Xiaoxi, she also looked sad, she was also a little curious about her father who she had seen, but the status in her heart was far less important than that of her senior brother, if she really stayed here, she would definitely never see her senior brother again in the future, and the emotion of parting was not easy to accept for her age.
Li Chenfeng looked at the frowning girl, habitually reached out and touched her head, and said, "Okay, let's go after eating!"
This breakfast can be regarded as tasteless, Jin Xueya only took a few bites of snacks, and then put down the dishes and chopsticks.
Jin Xiaoxi was even more obvious, just looking at the food on the table in a daze, and didn't have the heart to pick up the chopsticks.
After the long breakfast, Li Chenfeng looked at the food left in the bowl, and couldn't help sighing, not knowing whether he cared about the remaining food or the people who were about to separate.
"Let's go. Li Chenfeng spoke, took Jin Xiaoxi's hand, and smiled slightly.
Jin Xueya nodded worriedly.
The Jin family is not difficult to find, it can be regarded as well-known in Jincheng, and even children should know it.
After asking for directions, I finally came to the front of the mansion with the signboard of the Golden Mansion, and two stone lions that never got tired of seeing, like most large households, stood on both sides of the gate on the left and right.
Seeing Jin Xueya's extremely nervous appearance, Li Chenfeng signaled her not to worry, and took the initiative to step forward and knock on the knocker on the door.
Soon the door of the mansion opened, and the two sturdy subordinates opened the door, looking at the door with raised eyebrows, the man in black with an extremely angry face, and after his eyes swept around the Jin family sisters behind him, he spoke: "What's the matter?" ”
Listening to the arrogant question, Li Chenfeng was not angry, and still said kindly: "Under Li Chenfeng, I want to meet Jin Huaining Jin Daxia if I have something." ”
With color and eyes, the subordinate looked at Li Chenfeng from beginning to end again, although he looked like a son-in-law, he was not like a son-in-law with a background behind him, and the black clothes on his body were still eye-catching, at most he was a small family.
"My lord can not be seen when you see him, and he will not pee and take pictures. ”
"Let's go, don't come again!"
After the servant finished speaking, he retracted and prepared to close the door.
Li Chenfeng smiled lightly, stretched out his arm and put his palm on the door, and the door that was originally slowly closed could no longer be closed.
The subordinate who had no way to exert his strength saw the palm of the man in black on the door, and suddenly became furious.
"Boy, let go!"
"What if I don't let it go?" Li Chenfeng looked at the subordinate who looked down on the dog, and suddenly there was a fire in his heart, and the previous idea of saving face for the Jin family was also left behind.
"Don't let it go, grandpa will let you taste the bitterness today. ”
After the servant finished speaking, he ignored the gate anymore, raised his fist and hit Li Chenfeng on the cheek.
Looking at the vicious face of the evil servant, Li Chenfeng's sword qi burst out, and the fist that came from it stopped in mid-air with a twist, and it was difficult to move a single bit.
Li Chenfeng quickly made a move, pinched his right palm on the neck of the subordinate, and even raised it slowly, the splitting feeling of his arm and the suffocation of his throat made his free legs keep kicking.
Another subordinate who stood by and watched also looked at each other angrily and ran towards the mansion in fear.
"Oh no, someone's knocking on the door!"
Ignoring the subordinate who was shouting while fleeing, the strength of the palm of his right hand was even stronger, and the subordinate who was choked by the neck twisted his tongue desperately.
"Brother Li, let him go. Jin Xueya said behind her.
Hearing the woman's plea for mercy, Li Chenfeng threw the subordinate out of the door and threw him on the street.
Many passers-by, looking at the people on the ground wailing and constantly descending, and then looked at the man at the gate of the Golden Mansion, and they all stopped, wanting to see what the story was. The person who dared to come to the Jin family to make trouble had really never seen it.
