Chapter 301: Suspicion
But at this time, one of them suddenly said: "The little nephew remembered something, recently, there is a boy with a foreign surname who seems to come to my Weng Mansion often under the pretext of excuses, and since the father and son of Weng Steward disappeared, they have also disappeared, and now I think about it, it is quite suspicious." ”
Weng Quan asked, "Which family?"
The man hesitated and said, "This little nephew doesn't know, but Sister Xiaowan should know that they were often together during that time." ”
Weng Quan let out an "oh", "Are you talking about that kid from the Zhong family? He only has the early stage of cultivation in the Dan, which is unlikely." Then he suddenly remembered something, and showed a contemplative look, and after a moment, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a terrifying light burst out. Snorted and said, "If he is surnamed Zhong, then it is possible to do so, my spirit worm may not be worth risking his life for others, but his Zhong family definitely has a reason to do so." And since that person can perform the art of disguise and transformation, it is not surprising that there is any special method to cultivate himself to cover up. Dare to hit my Weng Quan's head with the idea, Tianquan, you go and call Wan'er!"
Not long after, Weng Xiaowan followed Weng Tianquan into the hall.
Weng Xiaowan obviously knew the purpose of his father's call, and frowned slightly, looking preoccupied. Seeing Weng Quan, she took two steps closely, "Father, aren't you suspicious of Weng Guan Shi? Why is it that he has become Zhong Di again? You also think too highly of him, how can it be possible in the early stage of a knot? Even if you have the magical power to change your appearance, your stone pagoda is not something that can be entered in a small knot period." Not to mention that he is an outsider, even your daughter and I will never dare to enter without your care. ”
Weng Quan listened to this. Silence fell for a moment again. Ruo glanced at her meaningfully and said, "It's too early to draw conclusions now, Wan'er, you should go to the City Lord's Mansion with your father now." Whether it has anything to do with that kid or not, there will be an answer soon. Let's go. ”
Weng Xiaowan nodded when he heard this. After figuring out some of these joints, his expression suddenly relaxed. Indeed, as soon as you see him, your doubts are gone
City Lord's Mansion, in the living room. A tall middle-aged man with a somewhat similar appearance to Pang Yuanxiong sat firmly on the main seat. At his side, Weng Quan's father and daughter sat in turn. Being able to get a seat in front of an elder of such a status is obviously an extraordinary relationship between the two families.
This person is none other than Pang Xuanwu, the city lord of Bluestone City. The two chatted for a while, and saw that Weng Quan was talking eloquently. looked calm, but Weng Xiaojuan next to him was always a little absent-minded. After thinking about it for a while, he smiled slightly and said: "Brother Weng and his niece are visiting this time, I'm afraid there are other things, right? You and I have always been good friends, so you don't need to be polite, you might as well speak up if you have something!"
Weng Quan laughed when he heard this: "Sure enough, I still can't hide Brother Pang's eyes, in fact, it's not a big deal, one is because I haven't seen Brother Pang for many years, and I reminisce about the past." The second is to meet the descendants of the Zhong family. There just happened to be something I wanted to ask him about something. ”
Pang Xuanwu said: "I've heard of that person, I remember that Yuanxiong asked me to leave him some time ago, Brother Weng waited for a while." I'll have them go and find him. So he called in one of the guards and gave a few orders. After he left, the two continued to chat.
Weng Xiaowan had no interest in any of this. When she was bored, she began to look around, but she overheard the two elders talking about her. It seems that Pang Xuanwu wants to match her with Pang Yuanling, but Weng Quan values Pang Yuanxiong more. In the end, for some reason, it seemed that there was no agreement in some places, so I changed the topic to other places. And the two did not make the atmosphere awkward because of these slight differences, and they still talked happily.
Weng Xiaowan already has a strong resistance to these things, and he can't control them anyway, so it's better not to listen and not be upset. What's more, it's not the first time, so I'm too lazy to listen.
After a while, Pang Yuanxiong pushed the door and walked in, and after saluting Pang Xuanwu and Weng Quan, he walked to the other side and sat down.
Pang Xuanwu saw him enter alone, and said suspiciously: "Why, that junior of the Zhong family didn't come with you?"
Pang Yuanxiong said: "Back to my father, Zhong Di came to me a month ago, saying that he wanted to find a place to retreat and practice to break through the bottleneck, but he didn't think much about it at that time, and felt that there was nothing to do with him for the time being, so he agreed. According to my calculations, it will be months before I return. And he didn't think to leave him an emergency messenger when he left, but now it seems that the child was negligent. In this way, Uncle Weng may have to wait for a while if he wants to see him. Then he smiled, "Sister Wan is also familiar with him, if he comes back, the little nephew will let him go to see Uncle Weng." ”
Pang Xuanwu nodded and said, "That's it, it's really unfortunate." ”
Weng Quan's expression didn't change much when he heard this, but the ruthless color in his eyes flashed away, and he smiled: "It's nothing, originally I was just a temporary idea, it doesn't matter if I can't see it." I haven't seen Brother Pang for many years, so I should take the opportunity to have a good exchange this time. Then he said to Weng Xiaowan, who had a rather ugly face: "You girl knows nonsense all day long, and this is the expression when you sit down and listen to the elders chatting." Yuanxiong, if you take her out for a walk, it's really unpleasant to let her stay here. ”
When Weng Xiaowan heard this, he knew that his expression just now was a little out of shape, so he immediately reluctantly smiled and said, "Father is right, Brother Yuanxiong, let's go." ”
Pang Yuanxiong was extremely helpless, but it was difficult to say anything, and after some politeness, he left the hall with Weng Xiaohuan, who was obviously absent-minded.
Half a day later, Weng Quan's father and daughter returned to Weng Mansion.
Weng Quan walked in front with a gloomy face, and Weng Xiaowan followed behind him without saying a word.
As soon as he entered his own courtyard, Weng Xiaowan couldn't help but take a few quick steps, and said with a slight hesitation: "Father, Wan'er thinks that maybe he really went to retreat and cultivate. ”
Weng Quan snorted, "Do you like that kid? ”
Weng Xiaowan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then argued with an aggrieved face: "Wan'er can just talk to him, which is what my father thinks!"
Weng Quan glanced at her and said, "No matter what, that kid is the most suspicious." More than 100 years ago, his ancestor Zhong Tianyuan had the idea of being a father and a dark cockroach, but because of the uncompromising exchange conditions, the deal was not reached in the end. However, the relationship has been good since then. Now it seems that it was his Zhong family who couldn't help it first. Hmph, do you think I'm a bully?"
Weng Xiaowan said: "But my father can't be determined that Zhong Di did it because of this!"
Weng Quan was silent for a moment and said: "My father will give him half a year, but if he doesn't show up by then, hum, the Zhong family will definitely pay the price!"
Weng Xiaowan sighed lightly when she heard this, but she didn't say anything anymore. (To be continued......)
