The Meng family siblings blinked and stared at Chu Qingxiao.
Chu Yanjun also looked dull. He looked at Chu Zhaozhao and Chu Qingxiao for a while. He wanted to ask something but for a while he didn't know how to ask.
Chu Zhaozhao's face turned red suddenly, and she stared at Chu Qingxiao, the light in her eyes was fierce, as if she wanted to stare Chu Qingxiao to death.
Chu Qingxiao also came to his senses and realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Of course, this can't be entirely his fault.
After all, during their time in Gosying Village, the two of them had become accustomed to living and eating together, so they said this subconsciously.
"What I mean is..." Chu Qingxiao said quickly, preparing to make up for it, but he was not good at words. At this moment, he was in a hurry. Although he wanted to explain, he hesitated for a long time and didn't know how to make up for it.
.
"Young Master Chu, it's true. Are you confused because of the rush these days? Why are you talking nonsense?" Just when Chu Qingxiao was having a hard time getting off the tiger, Sanniang suddenly said softly.
Sanniang wore a veil to cover her appearance, only revealing her eyes that were full of autumn water. She looked quite charming. Chu Yanjun on the side heard this and couldn't help but take a second look at these eyes that made people dream.
Of course, Chu Qingxiao on the side had no intention to observe Chu Yanjun's condition. When he heard this, he nodded quickly, secretly thinking that it was better for Sister Sanniang to help him out.
"Haha, I'm really confused. Look at what I'm saying!" he said in a haha tone.
But I heard Sanniang continue at this moment: "You and Zhaozhao are husband and wife. This is her house. Why don't you just go and live in her house? Why bother others to arrange a wing room for you?"
"The husband and wife live in separate rooms, how can you not make people laugh if word spreads about it?"
"..." Chu Qingxiao's gratitude to Sanniang disappeared in an instant. He stared at Sanniang with a complaining face and secretly said in his heart, Xue Sanniang, you are really my good sister...
Of course, Sanniang cannot be blamed for this. After all, in the eyes of the people in Cangying Village, Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao were husband and wife. The story of their elopement for each other is still passed down orally among the boys and girls in Cangying Village.
"Husband...husband and wife?!" Chu Yanjun's eyes widened and he shouted in a voice that was an octave higher.
He glanced at Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao again, trying hard to accept this fact.
"Zhaozhao, does Grandpa know about this?" he asked.
Chu Zhaozhao was also overwhelmed by this scene and her head was a little confused. After hearing this, she quickly shook her head: "I don't know yet."
But as soon as the words came out, I felt something was wrong and was about to explain.
But Chu Yanjun's expression just changed, and he immediately looked at Chu Zhaozhao seriously and said, "That's fine."
"After all, you have reached this age. As long as it is your decision, you can rest assured that the clan brother will fully support it."
Chu Zhaozhao was stunned when he said this.
In her memory, most of the people in her family were hostile or jealous towards her. Although these things were rarely brought to the table, Chu Zhaozhao could really feel the politeness during the few meetings.
feel.
It can be said that there are very few people who can support me as much as the brother in front of me.
Chu Zhaozhao couldn't help but feel a little moved: "Thank you, brother..."
She said this, but she felt something was wrong and hurriedly said: "No, brother, listen to me, this is..."
"Okay! Brother Clan understands, and Clan Brother has also been young. This Mr. Chu has extraordinary appearance, and you are a perfect match for Clan Sister. I will meet Grandpa at the banquet later. You can talk to him. He has always loved you.
, I won’t embarrass Brother Chu even if I think about it.” After saying this, he looked at the confused Chu Qingxiao and said seriously: “But although we don’t object, Brother Chu, although our Chu family is in a state of decline now, why?
He is also a well-known figure in Wancheng."
"The clan sister is the apple of my eye in my family. We still have to handle the things we need to do in a graceful manner."
"I..." Chu Qingxiao was about to explain.
"I know that these things won't be discussed clearly for a while, and I can't be the master. Let's go to the banquet first, and then we can figure it out slowly. Don't worry, as long as the clan sister likes it, I, the clan brother's number one
Support!" Chu Yanjun was extremely enthusiastic and open-minded, but it was this enthusiasm and open-mindedness that made Chu Qingxiao want to say something but for a while he didn't know where to start.
After saying this, Chu Yanjun did not give the two of them a chance to explain. He turned around and enthusiastically led everyone towards the direction of the banquet.
Chu Yanjun enthusiastically led the way, while Chu Zhaozhao, who was following behind, had a blushing face.
Chu Qingxiao, who was still in a daze, stared at the hospitable appearance of Lord Chu Yan in front of him, and said sincerely: "Zhaozhao, your brother is a good person."
It was better not to speak, but when she spoke, Chu Zhaozhao was immediately furious. She glared at Chu Qingxiao fiercely: "Are you out of your mind? What nonsense are you talking about!"
Chu Qingxiao was also a little embarrassed, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "It wasn't that my mind didn't turn around at that time. Besides, I could explain it originally, but who knew that Sister Sanniang would suddenly say such a thing, and you, a brother of the same clan,
Enthusiasm is enthusiasm, but he doesn’t listen to what others say!”
"Humph, are you still wronged?" Chu Zhaozhao sneered: "You just wait for my uncle to deal with you?!"
Chu Qingxiao was obviously a little frightened when he heard this, and quickly asked in a low voice: "What state is our great grandfather in?"
Chu Zhaozhao blinked, a little puzzled by this question, but still subconsciously responded: "Grandpa spends most of his time studying the art of medicine and stone, and his martial arts cultivation is not high. He seems to be only in the third realm..."
"Three realms." Chu Qingxiao breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing this: "Then he can't beat me..."
"Huh?" Chu Zhaozhao's eyes widened, "You really want to fight with my uncle?!"
"No, I mean..." Chu Qingxiao quickly explained.
"We're here, everyone." But at this moment, Chu Yanjun, who was walking in front, suddenly said.
Everyone looked up when they heard the sound, only to see that they had already arrived in front of the Chu family's main house.
Although at the beginning, they knew that this was a banquet to cleanse them from the dust, and they also felt that Chu Yanjun valued them from his words, but when they arrived in front of the main house, the scene in front of them still shocked everyone.
.
The front of the main house is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. The situation inside the house has not yet been seen, but there are still banquets outside the house and full of guests of all kinds. At the same time, distinguished guests dressed in brocade clothes continue to arrive from the direction of the door. They are responsible for guarding the door.
People will also shout out each distinguished guest's name as they enter the door, and at the same time read out the list of gifts they have given.
Everyone listened carefully and found out that most of these visitors were from wealthy families in Wancheng, and the things they sent were also valuable, ranging from fine medicines and various silks and satins to various antique decorations.
…
Just when they stopped here, the list of gifts read out by the servants in front of the door was worth nearly a hundred taels. "Zhao Zhao... are you sure that your family is really a down-and-out noble family in Wancheng..." Chu Qingxiao said
It's hard not to look a little weird.
Meng Jin on the side was also a little stunned and said: "The last time I saw such a big banquet was the engagement banquet between my brother and Miss Nangong..."
You must know that the Nangong family is a giant that can influence the situation in Cangmu and the two continents, and although the Meng family is somewhat in decline, it is still a wealthy family with military power. Ordinary nobles will be sold at a certain price.
The engagement banquet was naturally much bigger than the banquet in front of me.
But what you need to know is that the engagement banquet at that time was a banquet for Chu Zhaozhao to wash away his dust...
Just this little thing can make all the prominent people in Wancheng come to express their congratulations. With this kind of pomp and circumstance, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Chu family is the emperor of Wancheng. How can there be any sign of the family being in decline?
Everyone was stunned, and Chu Zhaozhao also looked strange.
"Brother, my letter said that I wanted to entertain you well, but... but this is too grand, isn't it?" Chu Zhaozhao looked at Chu Yanjun in astonishment.
But Chu Yanjun was all smiles: "Zhaozhao!"
"What are you talking about!"
"Our Chu family has been bullied by the Zhang family and other noble families in Wancheng for countless years. Today is finally the day to be proud. Do you think this is grand? I think he is too young!"
Chu Zhaozhao was stunned when she heard this. In her letter, in order to prevent her clan members from not paying attention to this matter, she specifically emphasized that this important event could alleviate the family's embarrassing situation.
But although she was very optimistic about the prospect of red blood worms refining elixirs, after all, this matter involved something like Gu worms that could not be exposed openly, so it would be unsightly to make a big show of it.
"I thought it would be better to keep a low profile." Chu Zhaozhao said in a low voice.
"Zhaozhao!" Chu Yanjun said, "I know you are a low-key person and don't like to be in the limelight."
"But if you think about the anger our clan has suffered over the years, forget about being bullied by outsiders. Even the Fourth Courtyard is bullying others and flattering the Zhang family."
"After all, the root cause is that the younger generation of the Zhang family was favored by the spirit sword in the Yaoguang Sword Pool."
"You think he will become a great person in the future, so all the tribes in Wancheng are determined to cling to you and oppose our Chu family at every turn?"
"Now that you also have the Yaoguang Spirit Sword, our Chu family is no better than the Zhang family. Such things must be told to the world, and those who are bent on clinging to dragons and phoenixes know that from today on, our Chu family is not good either.
It’s messed up!”
Chu Yanjun's words were loud and clear, and the look on his face was very exciting.
But when he said these words, Chu Zhaozhao's expression suddenly changed: "I...when did I say that I got the Yaoguang Spirit Sword?"
When Chu Yanjun heard this, he said with a smile on his face: "Three months ago you wrote a letter saying that given the opportunity, you will soon join the inner sect."
"Three days ago, I said that there was something big going on and I wanted to return to the clan."
"I guessed that you had obtained the Spiritual Sword. Just in case, I sent someone to look for you yesterday. Although you didn't have any explanation, the tribesmen I sent told me when they came back that there was a sword around you.
The lingering thoughts are obviously the result of observing the sword and cultivating the mind."
"I know you want to give everyone a surprise, but after all, this is related to the reputation of the entire family."
Speaking of this, Chu Yanjun paused, his eyes were blazing, he pointed to the guests who were coming behind him, and said loudly: "So I made my own decision and invited all parties in Wancheng to let them all have a good experience...
"
"My demeanor as the future master of the Chu family's resurgence!"
