The Qingyu family took Old Man Xu and Xu Lan's grandfather and grandson around in the yard, and then let them rest for a while before starting to serve the food.
At the dinner table, Wen Ya told Zhufeng in detail about the recent incident in Rishan Pavilion.
"...All the utensils and door plaques are made from onions. Although the child is not old, he makes everything exquisitely. Now the place is fully decorated, just waiting for the auspicious day to open."
After hearing this, Old Man Xu and Xu Lan were shocked. They had also heard what the groom said on the way, but they did not expect that the owner of the mountain pavilion was his wife.
Xu Lan couldn't help but asked curiously: "Madam, are you really able to fly over walls and fly over walls and master all kinds of martial arts?"
Wen Ya smiled, "There is nothing I can't do here."
Xu Lan and Old Man Xu looked at each other, and both grandfather and grandson saw incredible things in each other's eyes. They seemed to have met a very remarkable person.
After Zhufeng listened, he also explained what he had gained.
"I selected 100 commonly used and 20 rare medicinal materials. I bought a total of 40,000 medicinal seedlings and 400 kilograms of seeds. They are all on the way now and will probably arrive in three or four days."
"That's just in time for sowing." Wen Ya said: "I went to the countryside the day before yesterday and took a look around, and the land was all plowed."
"The first batch will probably arrive tomorrow and set off several days before us." Old Man Xu continued.
"Yes." Zhufeng nodded: "If we arrive tomorrow, then we will go to the countryside tomorrow and teach the tenant farmers first, so as not to come back with a large number of medicinal seeds waiting for them to learn."
"Then you are going to the countryside tomorrow? Aren't you going to have to wait until the sowing is finished?" Wen Ya asked again.
Zhufeng thought about it and said, "That's about right. Depending on the situation, I probably won't be able to go back to the city. I'll have to live in the countryside. It will take a lot of time to go back and forth."
"But I still have something I need you to do." Wen Ya glanced at Qing Yu with some embarrassment.
"Oh? Aren't you all busy here?" Zhufeng was a little curious.
"It's not even close. I only have a young master from the He family and a young master from the Si family who have accepted the move. Although they can also attract a lot of attention, after all, not many people have seen me take action. Palm... We just thought
A way."
"Go to Liuxiang and find a beautiful girl, seventeen or eighteen years old, and forget about the rest." Hong Tao said.
Zhufeng groaned, thought for a moment, and then asked: "Why are you looking for a girl? Isn't this Xu Lan the same one?"
Xu Lan looked at everyone in confusion. Although she didn't know what to do, she still nodded: "I can."
Old man Xu hissed, did he know where this Liu Lane was, and asked tentatively: "May I ask my wife, what exactly are you going to do?"
Wen Ya smiled and said with relief: "Don't worry, it's not a bad thing, but look at you, if you are willing, it will certainly save trouble. If you are not willing, it doesn't matter. You can just ask him to go for a run tonight."
Hongtao was active and pulled Xu Lan to bite her ears. Xu Lan's face turned red as she listened, but she thought about it for a moment and nodded firmly: "I can do it."
Old man Xu looked at Xu Lan, "Girl Lan, what are you doing?"
Xu Lan covered her mouth and smiled, "Don't worry, Grandpa, it's not a bad thing."
...
The first batch of medicinal materials shipped out arrived that afternoon. Old Huang sent his youngest son to send a message to Zhufeng. Zhufeng immediately packed a few clothes and went to the countryside with Old Man Xu.
Before leaving, Wen Ya said to him: "You have to come back on the evening of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Our mountain pavilion will be opened on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year."
Zhufeng smiled and promised, "Don't worry, I can't miss the Shange opening."
After the two left, Wen Ya took Xu Lan to the street, Hong Tao went out alone, and Qing Yu and Shi An went to Lanmufang. It was not until nightfall that they came back one after another.
And a piece of news also spread in the inner circle of the outer city overnight - the master of the Shange Pavilion is holding a competition to recruit brides, and the location is in the open space in front of Daquwan.
The Master of the Shange Pavilion is a topic that has been talked about a lot recently. Everyone is speculating on what kind of master he is, who can take down all the Wu family plaques in the inner circle.
But the popularity of public opinion has not subsided, and there is talk of a competition to recruit a bride. This is really like handing over a pillow when you feel sleepy. Just when you want to see the true face of Lushan, here you come.
What's more, everyone likes to watch such lively events as martial arts competitions to recruit brides. Not to mention, I heard that if you win, you can get one hundred taels of silver.
So early in the morning, everyone who heard the news gathered around Daquwan. The already lively market became even more crowded.
The inner circle is mostly rich people. The young masters and young masters have nothing to do on weekdays, but they also like to play in the streets. Especially in places like Daquwan, there is always a lot of excitement with acrobatics, lion dances, etc., so this news has also reached their ears.
Moreover, there has been a lot of heated discussion about the master of the mountain pavilion recently, so these young masters and lords also gathered in groups to watch the fun.
The arena had already been set up on the empty dam in front of the big bend. The audience was noisy and crowded, but the stage was empty and no one was seen.
Seeing that the sun was getting bigger and bigger, some people began to complain, and at this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Look, it's on the roof."
Everyone looked up and saw a woman dressed in silver and blue, with an iron sword under her feet, flying straight down. The sword under her feet seemed to have a spirit, carrying the woman and hovering in the air.
, and finally landed firmly on the ring.
The onlookers were all shocked and frightened.
The third young master of the He family, He Yunshen, always likes to run out and join in wherever there is excitement, so he is also watching under the ring at this time.
After seeing this, he immediately forgot about the beating he received last night, and excitedly grabbed the boy's hand, "Chang Sui, I must learn from her, I must worship her as my teacher, even if I get beaten to death,
Me, I also want to go to the mountain pavilion."
Chang Sui was also completely shocked by the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but murmured, "Isn't she a monster, Master?"
He Yunshen's face darkened, "What monster? There are no monsters in this world. I read in the book that immortals can fly with swords. She must be an immortal."
Wen Ya and other people on the stage calmed down a little, and then she said loudly: "Today I am competing in a martial arts competition in Shange to recruit a bride. Anyone who can beat me will not only be able to marry the beautiful woman behind me, but also win these one hundred taels of silver.
"
After saying this, Xu Lan was supported by Hong Tao and walked out. She was wrapped in a light pink Chinese dress, and the pleats of the skirt flowed like moonlight, gently meandering on the ground, making her gait look like lotus.
The face is covered with white gauze, the blush on the cheeks is looming, and the watery eyes are soft and reserved, seeming both delicate and shy, making them look soft and beautiful.
Shi'an followed behind with a hundred taels of silver ingots.
The crowd was in an uproar again.
Hong Tao helped Xu Lan sit down, and Shi An placed the silver in the most conspicuous place. Then the two of them took a step back, but their eyes wandered to the richly dressed young men in the audience.
Wen Ya controlled the iron sword with two fingers and danced out the four characters "a competition to find a bride" in the air. The speed was so fast that the words were completed before the light of the sword could disappear.
Under the arena, there was another scream of surprise.
