There are hundreds of entry-level disciples in Jianshu Villa, and each disciple has his own sect. Zhao Hua and Tang Yuanying both worshiped Tang Yanzhong as their teacher and joined the Zhujian Sect.
Wu Jiewen is an orphan adopted by Yang Lin. He followed Zhou Xingyun as his disciple since he was a child, and became a disciple of his master uncle Yang Xiao, and returned to the Wenjian sect.
In addition to the sword-asking and sword-making sects, Jianshu Villa also has the Wanjian Sect, which Yang Lin temporarily took over on behalf of Zhou Qingfeng.
Zhou Xingyun and Wu Jiewen rushed to the lobby of Zhujianmen, only to hear a fierce argument coming from inside.
"Dad! Why, why do you refuse!"
"You and Yun'er have a marriage contract. How could dad break his promise and agree to the Li family's proposal of marriage?"
"I don't want it. Even if I die, I will not marry Zhou Xingyun. He is not worthy of me!"
"Although Yun'er has mediocre qualifications and lacks etiquette in his work, he has a good mind and is the orphan of your junior uncle. You and him are in perfect harmony, so how can you say that you are not worthy? Also, you had many senior uncles back then.
He sacrificed his life to save me this time, but in terms of kindness, you are not worthy of him!"
"Since I'm not worthy of him, why are you asking me to marry him! No matter what you say, I will never marry Zhou Xingyun."
"Absurd! Marriage is the order of your parents. It's your turn to say you don't want to get married!"
"Dad, I am your daughter, can't you think about my happiness? Look at the generous betrothal gift. Young Master Li is devoted to me and he truly loves me."
"How can a marriage be a trivial matter? How long have you known the young master of the Li family? I don't even know whether he is a human or a ghost, yet he came to propose marriage rashly. Hmph, I guess he is definitely not a good person!"
"Dad, my daughter is already his!" Tang Yuanying's words were like a bolt from the blue, instantly making the people watching secretly near the lobby stunned.
Tang Yanzhong was stunned for a moment, then his eyes flashed fiercely, and he waved his hand and slapped Tang Yuanying hard on the cheek.
"How could I, Tang Yanzhong, give birth to a shameless daughter like you! Let's see if I don't beat you to death today!"
"Brother Zhong, wait a minute..."
Tang Yuanying was slapped by her father and was stunned. She didn't seem to realize that what she just said had crossed Tang Yanzhong's moral bottom line. Fortunately, Tang Yuanying's mother Liu Guilan stopped her in time, otherwise the second slap would have hit her
80% of my life is about to end...
Liu Guilan quickly opened Tang Yuanying's sleeves and checked the gongshu sand on the girl's arm. She couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Zhong, look, Yuanying didn't lose her integrity. She just said angry words."
"You take this unfilial daughter back to your room and don't let her step out of the villa without my permission!"
"I don't need you to worry about it!" Tang Yuanying cried so hard that she glared at Tang Yanzhong fiercely, suddenly threw Liu Guilan away, turned around and rushed out of the lobby.
Tang Yanzhong was about to start pursuing Qinggong, but Liu Guilan raised his hand to stop him: "Brother Zhong, let me take care of Yuanying's matter."
Just now, Tang Yanzhong was so angry that he left no room for action, which really frightened Liu Guilan. Fortunately, the first palm did not contain any internal energy, otherwise Tang Yuanying might have been killed on the spot.
"Sigh...Tang has no way to teach his daughter. I'm sorry for Qingfeng and I'm sorry for Junior Sister Yang."
Tang Yuanying rushed out of the lobby without looking back, but by chance she bumped into Zhou Xingyun at the corner outside the door.
The girl who had been wronged in every possible way was so angry when she met the culprit who caused her suffering...
Then, before Zhou Xingyun had time to think, there was a loud slap on his left cheek and he received a slap in the face for no apparent reason.
"Don't be proud, I will never marry you!" Tang Yuanying said through gritted teeth, and then walked straight to the door and left.
The girl clearly took out her anger on him, but Zhou Xingyun had a soft spot for her. Even though he felt aggrieved, he could only accept his fate. A small impatience would ruin a big plan. If he wanted to win the beauty back, he couldn't stimulate Tang Yuanying now.
Moreover, the girl's sleeves were filled with fragrance. Although her skin and flesh were painful, the fragrance was alluring.
"What should we do, Third Senior Brother? I think Second Senior Sister is going to go down the mountain again to find that person named Li..."
"Chase!"
When Tang Yuanying claimed that she was Li Tianhai's woman, almost everyone was shocked, except Zhou Xingyun and Wu Jiwen who were calm and relaxed. Because whenever Tang Yuanying went down the mountain, they would follow her secretly, fearing that the girl would not follow the rules of women.
Zhou Xingyun and Wu Jiewen left the villa in a hurry. Tang Yuanying's kung fu was more than a bit sharper than theirs. If they didn't catch up as soon as possible, God knows what would happen to her and Li Tianhai.
Fortunately, although they could not catch up with Tang Yuanying, they knew the address of Li's house. As long as they kept an eye on Li Tianhai, they didn't have to worry about the girl being taken advantage of...
However, today's situation was a little different. Zhou Xingyun and Wu Jiewen found Li Tianhai, but did not see Tang Yuanying.
"Second Senior Sister doesn't seem to be looking for him."
"My uncle said she wouldn't be allowed to leave the villa, so I guess my uncle might have stopped her halfway." Zhou Xingyun calmly thought about it, but suddenly realized that he was too impatient.
Tang Yanzhong was so angry that he hit Tang Yuanying. The girl's white cheeks were shocked and there were five-finger palm prints. She must be embarrassed to come to Li Tianhai at this time.
"Aren't our trips in vain?"
"No! Look at the guy named Li. He's dressed like a dog today. He's most likely going to have a tryst with a woman."
"It looks like it to me! He entered the restaurant..."
Fujing City is located at the foot of Qinglian Mountain and is the closest town to Jianshu Villa. It takes half an hour to walk to the city gate.
In the bustling downtown, Zhou Xingyun secretly followed Li Tianhai to a large restaurant decorated with lights...
"Waiter, is it a holiday today? Is there still someone planning a happy event? Why is the restaurant decorated with lights and colorful decorations, making it look like a brothel?"
"It seems that the guest is not a resident of the city. Today, Xu Zhiqian, the most beautiful woman in Fujing City, came to our Crescent Building to express her love for her. You can see that the restaurant is crowded with people. Everyone comes here because of the beauty."
When the waiter heard the word brothel, he frowned slightly, but Zhou Xingyun was a customer after all, so he could only explain it calmly and slowly.
Xu Zhiqian is the most beautiful and talented woman in Fujian City. Everyone in the city knows it. Three days ago, the beauty sent out recruitment notices. Today, she went to various restaurants in Fujian City to meet friends.
It's just that most male literati have a flaw in their brains, and they change "meeting friends" into "seeking a bride" in a pretentious way. They think that talented women are reserved and have the right way to find husbands, so making friends is an implicit modifier for asking for a bride...
"Ah! People named Li have their own tricks." Zhou Xingyun spat fiercely. Li Tianhai hired someone to go to the villa to propose marriage early in the morning, and then went to the restaurant to participate in the marriage proposal. Could it be that he wanted to have double happiness?
"Third Senior Brother, let's quickly find Second Senior Sister and let her see clearly Li Tianhai's virtue!"
"It's useless..." Zhou Xingyun shook his head, not to mention whether Tang Yuanying would believe what they said. Even if he knew that Li Tianhai was cheating on her without telling her, Tang Yuanying would only be in a mood.
This was an era when men were superior to women and bigamy was not illegal. It was completely normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Or, if there were not three or five women in the family, he was not considered a successful man in this era.
Tang Yuanying must be very sad now. If he can comfort her, he might be able to impress the girl and make her change her mind.
However, just as Zhou Xingyun was about to return home, he heard a familiar voice coming from outside the door.
"Senior Brother Zhao, who do you think proposed marriage to Second Senior Sister today? Senior Sister seemed to be happy to accept it, and said she was already his..."
"In the past three months, Senior Sister Yuanying has gone down the mountain many times, and she must have met with that guy. Fortunately, her guardian sand is still there, otherwise the master would have to clean up the house."
"Are we going down the mountain today to settle accounts with that guy?"
"No, I came to the restaurant today to participate in the wedding ceremony held by the most beautiful woman in Phoenix City."
"Looking for a bride? Senior Brother Zhao, don't you like Second Senior Sister?"
"A slender lady is a good gentleman. What's wrong with a real man having three wives and four concubines? Let me tell you secretly that Xu Zhiqian, the most beautiful woman in Fujing City, is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. She is even more attractive than our second senior sister. She is a
A noble and elegant official lady."
"real or fake?"
"Why did I lie to you? In short, you all participated in the event for me today. No matter who is selected, I will go to see Miss Xu on your behalf in the end."
Zhao Hua said seriously, and the little followers who followed him, although they were unwilling to do so, all nodded in agreement.
Zhao Hua is extremely talented and is one of the best martial arts talents in the world. His martial arts skills are among the best among many disciples of his generation, and he is considered a third-rate master in the martial arts world. Therefore, many Sword Making Sect disciples regard him as their leader.
Young people who have just entered the martial arts world are simply divided into first-rate, second-rate, and third-rate masters.
At a young age, Zhao Hua has mastered the moves of Jianshu Villa and is very good at fighting enemies. As he accumulates more experience in the arena and strengthens his moves, he can be promoted to a second-rate master.
By the way, Zhou Xingyun is currently only stronger than ordinary people. He can defeat three strong men at most. To put it bluntly, he is not even as good as a third-rate master. He is just a reckless man and cannot stand in the martial arts world.
"It's Senior Brother Zhao."
"The water in the river does not harm the water in the well. We pretended not to see it. After they enter, we will find a chance to leave."
Zhou Xingyun couldn't help but lower his head to the table and speak softly. Zhao Hua saw that he was in the wedding restaurant, so he would definitely use the topic to make irresponsible remarks to Uncle Tang...
"Two young heroes, this is the topic of this marriage recruitment."
The waiter from the store not long ago returned to Zhou Xingyun with pen and ink on rice paper.
The eldest daughter of the Xu family is very wealthy and has contracted the entire Crescent Restaurant. Every customer who enters the restaurant can get a copy of the project.
"Woman?" Zhou Xingyun stared at the rice paper and saw the word "woman" written in black and white on the paper. He thought that this was the subject of recruiting talented women to marry.
"Third Senior Brother, I know the answer!" Wu Jiewen excitedly picked up the pen and couldn't wait to write the words "Guan Guan Jujiu, in Hezhizhou." on the white paper.
"..." Zhou Xingyun saw him confidently starting to write an article, and suddenly he didn't know whether to be angry or laugh. If the answer was that simple, no matter how many talented women there were in Fujing City, there wouldn't be enough to get married.
