As the leading wealthy place in Ping'an, more than thirty years ago, this place was still a swampy wasteland.
It was Wang Shouzhe, the head of the Wang Zhongxing family, who filled in this worthless swamp with land and spent ten years to build it into what it is today.
The excellent environment, the gathering of rich people, and the convenience of business and life in the central location have not only been highly sought after by local wealthy people, but also wealthy people in the entire Changningwei area will spend a lot of money to buy a house here.
This caused the value of the main house and land in Zhuwei Mansion to rise steadily. Many of the first buyers turned around and resold it, and each of them made a huge profit. But later, they regretted it so much that their intestines turned green.
As the Wang family in Changning becomes more and more powerful, the environment of the entire Ping'an Town is getting better and better, and it is becoming more and more prosperous and powerful. The price of the first phase of Zhuwei Mansion has climbed to the point where even those ninth-grade aristocratic families from out of town will lose their heads. To the point of numbness.
A house with a front and back yard and 80 acres of farmland has actually increased to the price of 20,000 to 30,000 dry gold. It is still very affordable. The closer to the river and Zhuwei Lake, the more expensive the house is.
One of the courtyards facing the river has the word "Ouyang" written on the lintel.
This day was the fiftieth birthday of Mr. Ouyang. The house was bustling with people, and many distinguished people came to congratulate him. But Mr. Ouyang seemed a little unhappy. After offering a few glasses of water and wine to the guests, he returned to the backyard.
A corner of the backyard.
It's getting cold.
Some special varieties of plum blossoms and chrysanthemums in the courtyard are in full bloom, vying for beauty.
Mr. Ouyang was lying on the recliner. He was already quite old at the age of fifty. His slightly cloudy eyes seemed to be a little dull.
The age difference between him and Wang Shouzhe, the head of the Wang family, is only one or two years, but in appearance and spirit, they are worlds apart and completely different from people of the same generation.
After a while.
The weather is getting colder.
A man in his thirties in rich clothes, holding a seven or eight-year-old girl, carefully walked into the small garden that belonged to his father. When he was a child, his father would be there whenever he was in a low mood. Alone in a corner of the garden.
"Father," the man in rich clothes whispered, "many guests are waiting for you and want to wish you a happy birthday."
Master Ouyang glanced at him lightly and said, "Let them all wait."
"Father, is this appropriate?" the man in fine clothes said in a low voice, "among the guests, there are many prominent people...including the third shopkeeper of Hengxiang Shop, the young patriarch of the Li family, the deputy guardian envoy of the guardianship, Xinyi Shipping Company The young master's house..." He brought all the guests, who were of high status, to the house one by one, as well as their treasures.
"Humph!" Mr. Ouyang said with half-closed eyes, "All the bustling in the world is for profit, and all the bustle in the world is for profit. These so-called distinguished guests come to praise me, a mortal old man, for nothing more than one word," profit'!"
"Bo Tao, you must remember that I, Ouyang Junyan, am the sixth lady's personal attendant and one of the chief stewards of the Wang family." Ouyang Junyan, who was already slightly older, said sternly, "The matter of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor has nothing to do with any outsider.
We can only have official business dealings, and must not be involved in personal gain. What makes our Ouyang family what we are today is nothing more than loyalty. Now that you have been promoted to the manager of the Wang family, you must keep this in mind."
Since he was promoted to a confidant by the Sixth Miss, he has been involved in various front-line matters of the Wang family, including dredging and filling projects, the construction and sales of Zhuwei Mansion, resettling refugees, organizing civilian workers to dredge rivers, and install river embankments.
Project, resettlement housing project, the person in charge of a certain section of Shouzhe Road outside the territory, the main person in charge of part of the project in Shouzhe Guan...
Along the way, he has worked conscientiously and served as the backbone of the Wang family's rise. Therefore, in recognition of his contribution and loyalty, the Wang family gave him the main residence of Zhuwei Mansion more than ten years ago.
As one of the chief officials of the Wang family, Ouyang Junyan is naturally the target of many people's fawning.
"Yes, father." Ouyang Botao hurriedly handed over his hands and said, "Then the boy will go and entertain the guests. In order to avoid people saying that our Ouyang family does not understand etiquette, let Mu Qiu accompany you for a while."
"Go." Ouyang Junyan waved his hand impatiently. He seemed not satisfied with his son.
Then, after Ouyang Botao left.
The little girl Ouyang Muqiu stepped forward and said sweetly: "I wish my grandfather to be as blessed as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."
"Haha, little guy. Grandpa is very blessed, but this longevity is too long when he was young...ahem~that's all~" Ouyang Junyan doted on his granddaughter's head and said with a smile, "How are your homework lately?
In Wang Clan Studies, you have to study hard and never fall behind in your cultivation."
"Grandpa told you that the reason why our Ouyang family is what it is today is entirely dependent on the Wang family and the Sixth Miss. You must study hard and become a useful person, and repay the kindness of the Wang family and the Sixth Miss in the future."
"Yes, Grandpa." Ouyang Muqiu seemed to understand but still nodded obediently.
"Good boy." Ouyang Junyan praised him, his kind eyes filled with emotion.
After he had sufficient financial conditions, he spent a lot of money and the Wang family's contribution points to find a way to raise the bloodline of his eldest son Ouyang Botao from a scrap qualification to a low-grade D grade, which was regarded as stepping into the threshold of Xuanwu monk.
After that, he took a daughter-in-law with blood qualifications from a low-ranking Xuanwu family in Waiwei.
It was not just the virtues accumulated by his ancestors, but Ouyang Junyan himself had a good destiny. Not long ago, the granddaughter he gave birth to was found to have a low-grade, second-class bloodline aptitude under the unified test of Wang's spirit testing platform.
Then Ouyang Junyan gritted his teeth, spent his contributions and his face on credit, and exchanged an expensive fourth-grade elixir [Blood Tempering Pill] from the Wang family, which upgraded the bloodline of his precious granddaughter to the lower grade A.
As a result, Ouyang Muqiu's bloodline qualifications are already quite high. If he can become a confidant of the Wang family and perform more meritorious deeds for the family, he will have a good chance of becoming a Lingtai realm general in the future.
It can be seen from this that Ouyang Junyan has high expectations for this granddaughter.
Just as the grandfather and grandson were talking.
Suddenly!
In Ouyang Junyan's garden, a beautiful figure flew over. Every step she took was in the void, but the air rippled and vibrated as if she were stepping on the ground.
In a few breaths, she landed in front of Ouyang Junyan with her hands behind her back.
She was wearing a goose-yellow Xuanwu costume, showing off her heroic figure. Just by standing there quietly, she had the unrivaled elegance of an emperor descending upon the world.
"Six, six, Miss Six." Ouyang Junyan rubbed his eyes and couldn't believe the scene in front of him. He jumped out of the recliner with a bang, knelt down tremblingly and excitedly and said, "Jun, Junyan has seen Miss Six."
He was excited and surging in his heart. Miss Six had been busy practicing since she went to the Academy, and she didn't come back often. Once she came back once in a while, she would come back in a hurry and then leave in a hurry.
Ouyang Junyan counted his fingers and found that the last time he caught a glimpse of Miss Six from a distance was eight years ago.
"Junyan, I have also heard about your affairs. Over the years, you have always adhered to your duty and worked diligently for the Wang family." Wang Luoqiu nodded and said, "In the past six or seven years, I have been busy with other things. Since then, I have been busy with other things.
After I was recalled by Fourth Brother, I heard about your fiftieth birthday... so I came over to congratulate you, Toshiyan, you are a bit old, ugh~"
"Many, thank you so much Miss Sixth for remembering me." Ouyang Junyan was very excited with tears in his eyes. "My life is not worth mentioning, but I have worked so hard for Miss Sixth to come to congratulate me personally. I am so scared."
"I am already fifty, and it is normal to be a little old. But Miss Sixth, you are becoming more and more elegant, as if you were twenty years old. Late Qiu, what are you still doing? Why don't you come and pay homage to Miss Sixth and kowtow to Miss Sixth?"
"
Ouyang Muqiu knelt on the ground and said in a clear voice: "Muqiu pays his respects to Miss Sixth."
There was some fear and curiosity in her eyes. Is this the Sixth Miss that Grandpa has always remembered? She is really beautiful and young, just like... well, like a fairy in a painting.
"Mid Qiu?" Wang Luoqiu glanced at her lightly, with no joy or worry in his eyes.
"This... this villain has overstepped his bounds. I will change my behavior now..." Ouyang Junyan broke out in a cold sweat, feeling guilty and panic-stricken.
"It's a pretty good name, so it doesn't matter." Wang Luoqiu didn't care about this at all. In the Zifu Academy, she had always been known for being domineering and domineering, and she had suppressed countless young heroes with her iron fists.
But even so, there are always many brothers and sisters who admire and admire her, and even go so far as to arouse her anger and get beaten up happily.
Although Wang Luoqiu couldn't imagine what kind of hobby this was, it didn't stop her from getting used to being looked up to and admired by others.
After that, Wang Luoqiu waved her delicate hand, and a jade bottle slowly flew into Ouyang Junyan's hand: "Here is a life-extending pill. Although it cannot guarantee you a hundred years of life, it can restore some of the longevity you have lost due to overwork and injuries."
"Sixth Miss, this, this is too precious... a villain's life is worthless..." Ouyang Junyan hurriedly refused in fear, "Why is it worth Sixth Miss spending so much money?"
"It's just a small life-extending pill. It can only have some effect on those below the Lingtai realm." Wang Luoqiu waved his hand domineeringly and looked at Ouyang Muqiu. "This child seems to be somewhat spiritual.
Don’t waste your good education.”
After saying that, she gave out a few more bottles of cultivation elixirs, and then walked away gracefully.
"Congratulations to Miss Sixth." Ouyang Junyan shouted loudly.
Soon, Ouyang Botao and a group of distinguished guests arrived after hearing the news. It turned out that the legendary sixth lady of the Wang family came to congratulate her on her birthday and also presented a fourth-grade elixir "Life Extension Pill".
His eyes were bright, and he even flattered Ouyang Junyan.
"Brother Junyan." Liu Tianyi, the third shopkeeper of Hengxiang Shop, said regretfully, "I heard that Miss Luoqiu Liu is a genius in the academy, and my granddaughter has extraordinary qualifications. Why don't you ask Miss Luoqiu to accept him as a maid? In this way, my granddaughter's
The future is truly limitless.”
The rest of the people also expressed regret, saying that Brother Ouyang had missed a great opportunity.
"Humph, what do you know?" Ouyang Junyan waved his sleeves and said dissatisfiedly, "Sixth Miss is such a magnificent person. Even in the academy, there are countless people who want to curry favor with her. My family, Mie Qiu, does not have the qualifications of a low-grade first-class person, how can I
Are you qualified to be Miss Six’s maid?”
"Isn't low-grade A-grade enough to be a maid?" The young patriarch of the Li family, who only had low-grade C-grade qualifications, was dumbfounded when he heard this, "I heard that even low-grade A-grade people have a chance to be admitted to the academy if they work hard.
"
Ouyang Junyan swept the audience calmly: "What's so strange about this? Among all the geniuses in the academy, which one will not be a top figure in the future? And I firmly believe that Miss Six will definitely become a powerful figure."
All the guests flattered Ouyang Junyan again. With Miss Six's gift of longevity pills this time, Ouyang Junyan's status as one of the chief stewards of the Wang family will be as secure as a mountain even until his death.
…
Wang's main residence.
Wang Shouzhe's courtyard.
"You two are so brave!"
At this time, Wang Shouzhe's face was as cold as ice and he stood with his hands behind his hands. He had not been so angry for who knows how many years.
Standing in front of him to be disciplined were two women with the best appearance and temperament. One was wearing a goose-yellow Xuanwu costume, and the other was wearing a mysterious purple dress.
These two people were clearly Wang Luoqiu and Wang Luojing, Wang's darlings in the academy.
At this time, they all had their heads drooped, not even daring to take a breath. It was rare for the fourth brother to get angry, but once he really pissed him off, it would not end well.
"Wang Luojing, Wang Luoqiu." Wang Shouzhe's anger was overwhelming, "Do you think that Fourth Brother can't control you?"
"How dare you conceal the truth and secretly join the battlefield outside the territory. You have been there for several years. Do you still think of me as the head of the family?"
"What did I tell you? You must be safe in everything, and you are not allowed to risk your life. Are we, the Wang family, short of your cultivation resources?"
Wang Luojing's beautiful face was full of grievances and she was about to cry.
But after all, Wang Luoqiu still resisted and muttered: "Fourth brother, Li Yao is now the great genius of the academy. The two of us who are aunts are only of high-grade B blood. Some of us can't afford to lose this person, so we gave it a try.
Let’s see if we can do some amazing things.”
"There are many people in the Lingtai realm in the outer battlefield, and we are not the weakest... and we also followed junior sister Luwei... we got a lot of benefits, and we were lucky enough to make a big mistake..."
"Shut up, I'll settle the score with her later on about Lu Wei." Wang Shouzhe said angrily, "I'm already thinking of ways to deal with the Wuji Treasure Pill and so on. Do you need to worry about it? Don't I know about the battlefield outside the territory? That place,
Even those in the realm of gods and humans will fall from time to time! You..."
"Husband, don't get angry again, anger will hurt your health." Liu Ruolan came over gracefully and gently persuaded her, "Luojing Luoqiu, after all, she is your sister, don't scold her at will."
At this moment, Wang Luojing and Wang Luoqiu felt warm in their hearts. Sister-in-law, after all, they felt sorry for them...
"Ruo Lan, you... what are the battlefields outside the territory like..." Wang Shouzhe's face was filled with anger and fear. Even the academy forbade the geniuses of the Lingtai Realm to go to the battlefields outside the territory.
"Husband, what I mean is, don't scold them at will." Liu Ruolan persuaded softly, "Just hit them. Beat them to death. Don't save face. Or husband, you can't hit them.
Already?"
What?
Wang Luojing and Wang Luoqiu, their faces suddenly collapsed. Sister-in-law, thank you so much for your comfort. It would be better to be scolded for a long time~
