Chapter Seventy-Eight: Dig Out Your Earwax for Me

"Zhong Wen, this is ......"

Yin Ning'er looked at the off-white bead in Zhong Wen's hand that emitted a faint light and said curiously.

"This is a treasure that has existed since the birth of heaven and earth. Zhong Wen approached Yin Ning'er's ear and explained softly the effect of the "Tai Sui Pearl".

"It's... Is this true?" Yin Ning'er's always cold face showed a rare look of surprise.

She now occasionally listens to Zhong Wen talk about "Journey to the West" with Xiao Lori and others, there are several powerful treasures in the book that were born in the chaotic development, when the world was generated, her heart has long been unconscious, and at this time, she heard that the Tai Sui Pearl has the magical effect of speeding up the growth rate of the elixir, and her eyes looked at this small bead and unconsciously brightened a little.

"The personal test is effective, and the fake one pays ten. Zhong Wen smiled and stuffed the off-white bead with a faint light into Yin Ning'er's hand, "Ning'er, from today onwards, this treasure of heaven and earth will be handed over to you for safekeeping." ā€

"No, no, it's too expensive. Yin Ning'er was taken aback and shirked again and again.

"Don't you like that kind of thing that helps plants grow?" Zhong Wen's voice was full of temptation like the demon Satan, "As long as you have this bead, you can grow as fast as you want them to grow, this feeling, tsk......t"

"But, but...... "In front of a treasure like Tai Sui Zhu, even a girl with a pure heart and few desires has to give birth to a trace of greed, but after all, she is different from ordinary people, she can hold back, shake her head and say, "No, you not only saved me, but also taught me so much knowledge of elixir and alchemy, how can I take your things again?"

What a pure and kind girl!

"Ning'er, I want you to help cultivate some high-grade elixirs, so I'll store the Tai Sui Bead with you for the time being. Zhong Wen admired in his heart, and no longer teased her, his face was straight, and he said softly, "Are you willing to help me?"

"I—I do. The girl lowered her head, two blush appeared on her face, and there was a rare expression of excitement in her always cold eyes.

Although she knew that she was most likely excited about the power of the treasure, listening to a beautiful and beautiful girl standing in front of her and saying these three words in a soft tone still made Zhong Wen's heart flutter.

"I need some 10,000-year-old Shouwu, 10,000-year-old dragon ginseng, and 5,000-year-old blood essence grass......" Patting the girl's shoulder gently, Zhong Wen smiled and instructed, "In addition, I would like to ask you to test the detailed effects of this Tai Sui Pearl, and see how long it can be soaked and how much effect it can produce." ā€

The elixirs reported in his mouth were all valuable materials for refining the "I Ching Cleansing Pill".

"Good. Yin Ning'er bowed her head slightly and happily agreed.

"I was supposed to grow these elixirs myself, but there were too many things to do, and I couldn't keep busy. Zhong Wen was a little apologetic, he felt guilty about using a beautiful girl as a coolie, "I can only bother you to think about it more." ā€

"Don't bother. Yin Ning'er shook her head and said softly, "I like to grow elixirs very much. ā€

Recently, he often discussed elixir and alchemy with Zhong Wen, and Yin Ning'er spoke to him in a tone that was unconsciously different from others.

Less indifference, more tenderness.

"Brother Zhong Wen, Brother Zhong Wen!" suddenly came the anxious voice of the little girl Si Qi outside.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Wen asked, pushing open the door.

"That man has come to Elder Shangguan again. Seeing Zhong Wen, Si Qi's eyes lit up, and he ran over and pulled his sleeve and hurriedly said.

"Oh, he did die again. Zhong Wen smiled, but his eyes became cold, "Let me meet this scumbag." ā€

After speaking, she found that Nangong Ling was actually not far in front of her, thinking of her relatives who were insulting her behind her back, and being caught, she didn't feel that her face was red, and she was a little embarrassed and said: "Sister Nangong, this..."

"Don't worry about me, this merry second uncle, I've been unhappy with him for a long time. Unexpectedly, Nangong Ling had a smile in his eyes, and he didn't feel angry at all.

She thought for a moment and reminded again: "Don't make trouble." ā€

"Okay!" Seeing that Nangong Ling didn't mind, but faintly added fuel to the fire, Zhong Wen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly ran back to the room to change into a high-end clothes bought in the morning, holding a standard folding fan for a noble son, stinky in front of the mirror for a moment, and then fanned the wind with his right hand, and walked towards the gate of the courtyard with brisk steps.

Shangguan Junyi had already come to the door, today she deliberately dressed up, wearing a water-colored dress, a white tulle on her upper body, a golden belt around her waist, lining her graceful figure, her long hair was coiled high, and a shiny multicolored hairpin was inserted on it, which looked noble and bright, charming and moving, and seeing the charming back from behind made Zhong Wen's heart beat slightly faster.

His gaze passed through Shangguan Junyi and fell on the handsome middle-aged man in front of her.

Sure enough, he is a handsome old guy, just a little worse than me, no wonder Sister Shangguan was so obsessed with him back then.

Looking at Nangong Lin's handsome appearance and well-matched clothes, Zhong Wen secretly slandered himself, and actually faintly felt a trace of jealousy.

"Junyi, here are some fresh peaches I brought you. Nangong Lin's voice was very magnetic, and his face was full of gentleness, which was very easy to make people feel close to him, "I remember that you liked to eat fresh peaches the most back then, and I specially asked people to bring some from Nantian City." ā€

The peaches of Nantiancheng, the grapes of Beikun Mountain, and are called the great and dry double, and the price is very expensive.

Nangong Lin did not find someone to carry it on his behalf, but personally picked up two baskets of peaches up the mountain, and was full of thoughtfulness in the subtleties.

He lifted the blue cloth strip covering the basket very gracefully, revealing the bright red peaches among them, and sure enough, they were all big and full, which was very attractive.

Knowing that Shangguan Junyi's family was rich and rivaled the country, Nangong Lin did not send any rare treasures, but instead did what she liked and prepared the fruits she liked to eat, which was not unconventional, but also seemed attentive.

A woman who has been abandoned for many years, Nangong Lin can clearly remember her taste preferences.

It is really a holy hand in flowers!

If I were a woman, I was afraid that I would fall in love with such a man.

Zhong Wen silently watched Nangong Lin's every move from behind, and there was a trace of frustration in his heart, only to feel that under the backdrop of the other party's appearance and demeanor, he was a rough straight man.

"Taste, this peach is so sweet, I have washed it with a mountain spring when I came up. Nangong Lin said, carefully picked out the one with the best quality in the basket, and handed it to Shangguan Junyi.

Even though he was very disdainful of Nangong Lin in his heart, Zhong Wen still had to admit that the atmosphere at the gate of the courtyard was soft, and the painting style was very beautiful.

"I can't take it. Shangguan Junyi finally spoke, her voice melodious, soft and beautiful.

"Junyi, can't you forgive me?" Nangong Lin's face darkened, with a hint of crying in his voice, "I know, it was the Nangong family who was sorry for you back then, and you just hated me to death, and you should ...... it"

"Mr. Nangong, I don't hate you anymore. Shangguan Junyi interrupted Nangong Lin's self-pity and self-complaint, and said in a calm tone, "After all, there were some entanglements back then, and at first glance yesterday, Junyi couldn't help but be emotionally agitated, please forgive me." ā€

"Junyi, I'm even more uncomfortable with you like this. Nangong Lin said affectionately, "I know that you are still complaining about me in your heart, it is better for you to beat me and scold me than to hold all the pain in your heart." ā€

"Mr. Nangong, now that Junyi is married to a wife, don't mention the things of the past. Shangguan Junyi's face showed a complicated expression, which seemed to be a little reminiscent, but also a hint of helplessness.

"What, are you married?" Nangong Lin's face changed greatly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his voice trembled, "Junyi, you must have lied to me, right!"

"Mr. Nangong, please respect yourself. Shangguan Junyi said softly, "Let the past pass." ā€

Nangong Lin was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a man's voice coming from behind Shangguan Junyi: "Lady, I haven't seen you everywhere, so I used to have fun here!"

Then, a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old swaggered out of the threshold of the courtyard.

The young man's face can be regarded as delicate, but his demeanor is arrogant and arrogant, a precious silk coat does not match his body shape, it seems too wide, and it is extremely incongruous on his body, the boy's hat on his head is worn crookedly, and his ten fingers are full of rings and other decorative items, and his right hand is waving a jade fracture fan quickly, as if he wants to imitate the behavior of the handsome son of the family, but it is a tiger dog, which looks very funny, and the left and right feet are very separated when walking, full of the atmosphere of the nouveau riche family.

"Xianggong. Seeing this gentlemanly young man, Shangguan Junyi seemed to be a little afraid, and replied with low eyebrows.

"Junyi, this, this is your husband?" Hearing the fairy-like Shangguan Junyi call the temperamentless young man in front of him as a minister, Nangong Lin couldn't believe his ears.

"Mr. Nangong, let me introduce you. Shangguan Junyi came to the young man's side and gently grabbed his arm, "This is my husband Jun Zhongwen." ā€

"Lady, who is this old man?" the young man stared at Nangong Lin up and down, frowned and asked loudly.

Hearing the words "old man", Nangong Lin raised his eyebrows, and his right hand faintly burst into green tendons.

"Xianggong, this is the son of Nangong Lin of the Nangong family. Shangguan Junyi introduced softly beside the young man, "My old acquaintance in the imperial capital in the past. ā€

"Oh, the son of the Imperial Capital family, but that's it. When the young man heard this, he glanced at Nangong Lin again, and then shook his head, with a hint of disdain in his eyes, "This old ... Nangong Gongzi, why did you come to our house?"

"Junyi, are you acting, right? He deliberately made you angry with me, right?" was despised by the people he looked down on, Nangong Lin couldn't bear it anymore, and his tone was not as soft as before, "How could you marry such an ignorant teenager?"

"What are you talking about this old man, who is the ignorant boy?" The young man was furious when he heard this, and the hat on his head that was already crooked fell directly to the ground, "Be careful that I let you walk around without eating!"

Shangguan Junyi hurriedly picked up the hat and put it on for the young man, patted his back and comforted him softly, and finally calmed his anger a little, turned to Nangong Lin and said: "Mr. Nangong, please don't insult my husband, Junyi's illness was cured by my father-in-law, and my husband's family has a great favor for me." ā€

As he spoke, a hint of pain faintly flashed in Shangguan Junyi's eyes.

Nangong Lin suddenly realized when he heard this, and sketched in his mind the bloody plot of the young man's father forcing Shangguan Junyi to marry his son with medical treatment as a threat.

"Let's go, lady, don't pay attention to him. The young man's face showed impatience, and he hugged Shangguan Junyi in his arms with his right hand, "I feel that there is a lot of earwax, you quickly dig it out for me." ā€
