"It's all because you're a foodie and you ate so much before going down the mountain, which wasted time."
Monk Mingji frowned and cursed at another fat monk of similar age.
"The Bodhisattva is not afraid of hungry soldiers. If he doesn't have enough food, how can he have the strength to do anything?"
The fat monk with the white spots on his head pointed at Qingyangzi and said, "Besides, I didn't see the nose."
"Can you believe what he says?"
Monk Mingji snorted coldly: "This Niubi has a grudge against us. In all likelihood, he is lying and deliberately misleading us."
Qingyangzi said calmly without changing his expression: "Believe it or not."
"If you dare to lie to us, you idiot, give me a beating!"
The white-spotted monk stared angrily, calling the other people to attack him.
"Mingku, don't do anything yet."
Monk Mingji stopped them, spat a mouthful of thick phlegm and said: "The matter explained by the abbot is important. It won't be too late for this bull-nosed person to turn around and deal with it."
The white-spotted monk put away the mace in his hand and said dissatisfiedly: "Senior brother, we have been going all the way, and we are not slowing down anymore. Why don't we go down the mountain to eat something first, and then chase those two people."
"fart!"
Monk Mingji kicked the junior fellow apprentice and scolded him: "You are a good guy, you are done with your work. When you have enough to eat, if something goes wrong, you will see how the abbot will deal with you."
Having said this, the fat monk with white spots was a little scared, and his body couldn't help but shuddered: "Then, let's chase him quickly."
Several monks immediately abandoned Qing Yangzi and chased him down the road.
Qingyangzi hesitated for a long time, and suddenly the words of Nie Xiaoli and Xia Tian rang in his ears, and he couldn't help but ask himself: Do I really only dare to attack good people, but dare not stop these evil people?
After thinking for a while, he finally gritted his teeth and followed.
...halfway up the mountain.
Villas with their own characteristics are scattered throughout the forest like stars scattered across the Milky Way.
Mother Nie took Ning Ruirui and Ning Ruichen to the door of one of the villas that occupied a large area.
"This head of the Nie family is very rich."
Ning Ruichen looked at the villa, compared it with the Ning family's ancestral home in his mind, and couldn't help but sigh: "The houses in the town are all dilapidated, and the roads have not been repaired for decades, but the villa here is so luxurious. Sure enough,
The people above are domineering and prosperous, while the people below are suffering."
Ning Ruirui glanced at Ning Ruichen strangely, but said nothing.
"Sister, why are you looking at me like that?"
Ning Ruichen was sensitively aware of Ning Ruirui's gaze and quickly understood the meaning behind it. He said dissatisfiedly: "Our Ning family's situation is different from here. Besides, you've also taken advantage of the family."
Well."
"I didn't."
Ning Ruirui said calmly: "The money I used was all earned by myself. I didn't take a dime from the Ning family's property, except for the ancestral house that I left for my grandfather to live in."
Ning Ruichen was speechless for a moment, because in fact it was true. His parents and several other uncles were arguing too much, and he just couldn't stand the atmosphere so he returned home.
At this time, Mother Nie stepped forward and rang the doorbell, "Who is it?"
A rather kind old man's voice rang from the doorbell.
Nie's mother heard this voice and whispered to Ning Ruirui and Ning Ruichen: "This is the villa housekeeper Nie Yinggui. He has been with the Nie family for decades. He is not a bad person and takes good care of us mother and daughter.
"
"learn."
Mother Nie immediately responded: "Uncle, it's me."
"Oh, it's the eldest mistress."
The old housekeeper heard Mother Nie's voice and immediately replied: "Wait a moment, I will open the door for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened with a roar.
However, the first person who ran out of the villa was a little girl with a ponytail, and she immediately fell into the arms of Mother Nie: "Mom, I miss you, why did you come to pick me up? Where is my sister?"
?”
"Oh, Xiaozao, mom misses you too."
Mother Nie hugged the little girl tightly, smiled and stroked her head, "Sister, if you have something to do, come back later."
"Then are you here to take me home?"
Nie Xiaozao stared at Mother Nie expectantly with her round eyes.
Mother Nie nodded: "Yes, mother is here to take you home."
"Young mistress, I'm afraid this won't work. You can't take Xiao Zao away without the master's consent."
The old housekeeper slowly walked out at this time, with a smile still on his face, but his tone was unquestionable.
"Nothing is impossible."
Mother Nie has made up her mind and knows that there must be no hesitation: "I'm taking my daughter home. Is there any problem?"
The old housekeeper was choked for words and didn't know what to say.
"Come here whenever you want, leave whenever you want, what kind of place do you think we are here?"
At this time, a woman wearing a top hat and a green dress stood on the balcony on the second floor and spoke condescendingly to Mother Nie and others: "You really have no education at all. Why did my brother marry such an idiot woman like you back then?
"
Mother Nie glanced at the woman and felt a trace of dissatisfaction in her heart: "I want to take my own daughter away. This is a matter of course and no one has the right to stop her."
"Auntie, who is this stupid old woman?"
Ning Ruichen glanced at the woman and asked casually: "You are so rude and your quality is too poor."
The woman in the top hat on the balcony instantly became furious. She pointed at Ning Ruichen and said, "How dare you call me an old woman? Do you know who I am?"
Ning Ruichen responded in a matter-of-fact tone: "I'm sorry, I don't know who you are.
But I’m only 20 years old, and you look at me as at least thirty-five, is there anything wrong with calling you an old woman?”
"you you!"
The woman in the top hat was so angry that she didn't know what to say, so she could only get angry at the old housekeeper: "Hey, Uncle Gui, why did you let everyone in? What if it's a petty theft? This kind of unscrupulous person is the most likely to commit adultery.
It’s against the law.”
The old housekeeper's face was full of embarrassment: "They are all brought by the eldest mistress, they should not be that kind of people."
"What do you mean it shouldn't be!"
The woman in the top hat pointed at Mother Nie and cursed: "This woman is the biggest thief. She takes advantage of my Nie family and spends my Nie family's money, but she thinks about how to cheat my brother and my father every day.
Cheating the Nie family, what kind of good thing can the person she brings here be?"
Ning Ruirui couldn't stand listening anymore and directly warned: "Miss Nie, you'd better develop some moral integrity. If you continue to speak so openly, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson."
"Hahaha, listen, listen, is this what people say?"
The woman in the top hat laughed angrily and quickly changed her expression, "Where's the bodyguard? Come out and give this woman a good beating and then throw her out."
Several bodyguards hidden in various corners suddenly came out and rushed to Ning Ruirui.
"No, don't do it!"
The old housekeeper was startled, and immediately stopped the bodyguards, turned to the woman on the platform and said, "Miss Fifth, calm down first.
It’s really inappropriate for the eldest mistress to come here and drive people away without even taking a sip of tea. Others will say that we don’t understand etiquette.”
"Uncle Gui, are you old and confused?"
The woman in the top hat was furious, pointed at the old housekeeper and cursed: "They don't know etiquette, and they don't deserve to drink my tea.
"He shouted to the bodyguard again, "Don't be stunned, get them all!"
"Bang, bang, bang!"
In less than three seconds, the bodyguards lay directly on the ground before they understood what was going on.
"What's going on?"
The top hat woman's eyes widened and she looked at the bodyguards all over the floor in astonishment: "Have you been hit too much by cannons? Your legs are so weak that you fall down before anyone touches you."
"Snapped!"
A loud slap in the face made the woman's face instantly turn red and swollen.
"Shut up if you can't speak."
Ning Ruirui appeared on the balcony at some unknown time and stood beside the woman in the top hat. She said coldly: "I'm just giving you a slap in the face to teach you a lesson. If you don't restrain yourself, it won't be so easy."
The woman in the top hat covered her red and swollen face, her eyes full of resentment: "How dare you hit me! Ever since I was a child, my dad has been..." "Pa!"
Another slap.
Ning Ruirui rolled her eyes and answered casually: "Your father never hit you since you were a child, right?"
"You, you..." The woman in the top hat was full of resentment and anger. She couldn't stand it anymore and rushed towards Ning Ruirui with her teeth and claws bared: "I want you to die!"
"Kneel down and reflect!"
Ning Ruirui did not tolerate this woman, so she lightly lifted her long legs and put them on her shoulders, forcing her to kneel on the ground.
The woman in the top hat felt as if the knees of her legs were about to break, and she cried out in pain: "Mom, come here quickly, someone is bullying me!"
"Hey, if you can't beat me, just call me mommy. You really are an old woman who won't grow up."
Ning Ruichen was watching the excitement downstairs and almost burst out laughing, "It really made me laugh to death."
Just after he laughed a few times, something suddenly seemed to fly into his mouth, making it difficult for him to breathe and making his whole body feel uncomfortable.
"Well?"
Ning Ruichen touched his throat and frowned: "What the hell?"
"It's grandma's date core."
Nie Xiaozao was a little scared and reminded in a low voice.
Ning Ruichen's face turned red, and she felt like she was about to suffocate: "Sister, I'm going to die from suffocation, please help me."
"Hahaha, there's nothing you can do now."
The top hat woman became proud again, "My mother is not an ordinary person. In front of her, you are like little ants. She can kill you at any time... Uh, what are you doing!"
Before she finished speaking, Ning Ruirui pressed her neck with one hand.
"If you don't save my brother within three seconds, I can't guarantee what will happen to your daughter."
Ning Ruirui didn't have any medical skills, so she couldn't save Ning Ruichen, but she was not helpless, and it was Xia Tian's method, which was simple and crude, but directly effective.
Sure enough, within three seconds, Ning Ruichen suddenly coughed violently, opened his mouth and spit out a date core.
Ning Ruirui also let go of the top hat woman and let her escape back into the house.
"Is this it, you almost choked me to death?"
Ning Ruichen picked up the date core on the ground and asked doubtfully.
Nie Xiaozao nodded: "Grandma often hits us with this thing, it hurts a lot."
"Then is your grandfather Gongsun Zhi?"
Ning Ruichen asked casually.
Nie Xiaozao is too young and has never watched "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", so he has no idea what Ning Ruichen is talking about.
"Hehehehe, the Changsheng family is here, why didn't you say anything in advance?"
From the main entrance of the villa, a skinny old lady walked out slowly. She was dressed in gold and silver but not noble at all. She looked more like the mother of a rich country man: "Come on, come on, come in and sit down. What's the matter?
Come inside and chat.”
Ning Ruichen said bluntly: "What the hell, Gargamel?"
With just one word, the atmosphere that had already turned around suddenly became chilly again.
