Chapter 57 [I, Gu Xiaoniang, also have to have some dignity]

Is there really an expert in magic in Luo Yunzhai?

Chen Yan pondered for a moment, and after a while he took Lu Sisi out of the store. He glanced in the direction of Luo Yunzhai, but did not go there.

Before, I thought that Luo Yunzhai was full of liars and no one was a master. That’s why I dared to come and attack Luo Yunzhai.

Now... I actually met someone who can cast spells.

Although I don't know how skilled he is, but just based on the fact that he used the Qi-gazing technique to look at me just now, I know that he is definitely not an amateur.

How can you cast spells without vitality?

After making up his mind, Chen Yan gave up the idea of going to Luo Yunzhai again immediately - it would not be safe to bring Lu Sisi with him. What if something happened and someone saw something...

Chen Yan smiled at Lu Sisi and said, "There shouldn't be much to see inside. Let's go back."

"...Okay." Lu Sisi nodded with a smile.

Although Lu Sisi felt a little regretful that the shopping trip was about to end.

But the girl was not greedy. This short time this afternoon was already good enough for her.

The two of them went to the temple to worship Buddha together, went shopping together, and ate together from the street to the end of the alley.

Although they never held hands like a couple, but... the sight of them walking side by side and brushing against each other from time to time was enough to make Lu Sisi's heart flutter.

This... should be like a date, right?
Just as she was lost in thought, she saw Chen Yan walk to a roadside vendor, buy two strings of candied haws, and then stuff one string into her hand - Lu Sisi was stunned.

"The strawberry one is for you, and I'll eat the hawthorn one." Chen Yan said with a smile.

Lu Sisi took a cautious bite.

The strawberries were a bit sour, but the sugar coating was sweet and crispy.

Seeing a little icing on the corner of Lu Sisi's mouth, Chen Yan smiled and reached out, gently wiping the corner of the girl's mouth with his thumb.

Dozens of steps away, among the crowd, Gu Qingyi stood on the side of the road, looking calmly at Chen Yan and the young girl on the side of the road in the distance.

Gu Qingyi was holding a cup of milk tea that she had just bought and had taken less than two sips of. She looked at the two people in the distance who were looking very intimate. No one knew what she was thinking. She just raised her eyebrows slightly, then turned around and walked into the crowd, and disappeared from sight.

Gu Qingyi came to Luo Yunzhai.

Since she had helped the boss lady, she, Gu Qingyi, had to see things through to the end, so she naturally came to check on him today. She wanted to wait until dark, find a time when no one was around, and find that person named Luo Qing to interrogate him and see if he had followed her orders.

But unexpectedly, I met Chen Yanhe here...

That gentle and pretty girl, is she his girlfriend?
Originally, she was lying in the sun in the morning. The cup of milk tea that Chen Yan brought her was sweet and made Gu Qingyi feel good about it. When she came out this time, she saw a milk tea shop on the side of the road and bought a cup.

But it didn't taste as good as the cup of tea Chen Yan made for him at home in the morning... well, he said it was called something like Milk Green Tea.

But I clearly ordered the same milk green tea in the restaurant just now, but the taste was much worse.

What she didn't know was that the tea leaves used to make milk tea in these unknown little milk tea shops on the street were often of inferior quality, and some even used tea powder, and the milk might not be real milk.

How can the combination of technology and hard work compare to the high-quality tea that Mr. Fang sent?

Gu Qingyi casually threw the milk tea cup into the trash can on the side of the road, put on a mask, and then walked towards Luo Yunzhai with his head down.

Luo Qing was in the yard behind Luo Yunzhai. The west wing and main hall that had collapsed were now surrounded by construction warning tape.

Although the east wing where he lived was not affected, Luo Qing didn't have much intention of living there.

I'm here now just because the people from the street came to check and discuss compensation for the house with me.

This time, a large sum of money was spent. Although Luo Qing felt the pain, he thought that by refusing to pay the compensation to Mr. Fang, he could save a lot.

Anyway, my junior sister is back now, and Mr. Fang can't do anything to me. I can keep it a secret from my junior sister for now. If Mr. Fang really wants to cause trouble for me, my junior sister will pretend to be pitiful for the sake of our fellow disciples, and he will definitely not ignore me.

It is true that we are wary of those masters of mysterious magic, but I am not afraid of a worldly businessman like Fatty Fang.

Luo Qing was very confident. After seeing off the people on the street, he went back to the house to pack up his things, planning to move to the teahouse in the next two days.

Just as he locked the door of the east wing, a strong wind suddenly blew, and a stone wrapped in paper flew over and fell at Luo Qing's feet.

He was stunned for a moment, then bent down to pick it up and took a look. He opened the paper included and saw three words written crookedly on it:

Letter of understanding?
Luo Qing's legs went weak, he looked up and around, but there was no one in sight.
He quickly thought of a solution and clasped his hands together, bowing respectfully to the air. He said loudly, "I have followed the Master's instructions and investigated the case. Now the man has been released and returned home. I personally sent him there! Please show some mercy, Master!"

After saying it twice and seeing no response, Luo Qing slowly straightened up and secretly breathed a sigh of relief - the other party must have left with satisfaction.

This calamity of mine is now over, right?

·
It was already past seven in the evening when Chen Yan returned home.

As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Gu Xiaoniang still leaning on the lounge chair in the yard, and her posture seemed to be exactly the same as before I left.

Chen Yan walked over and said softly, "Mrs. Gu, it's already dark, why are you still sitting here? There's no sun to bask in."

Gu Qingyi raised her eyelids and glanced at him, then said softly, "The starry sky is also very beautiful. You can't see it from the Prison Suppression Platform either."

Chen Yan nodded and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"No."

"Well, how about some simple fried rice? Among the New Year's gifts that Boss Fang sent yesterday were stuffed sausages. I heard they were stuffed with Maozi liquor, so they taste a bit like Maotai liquor. Should I cut them in two and steam them as a side dish?"

Gu Qingyi nodded: "Okay."

Chen Yan entered the house and went straight to the kitchen. Gu Qingyi followed him in and stood at the kitchen door watching Chen Yan busy himself.

The New Year's goods that Mr. Fang sent yesterday were really quite a lot, including a jar of lard - these New Year's goods were quite down-to-earth.

Chen Yan turned on the fire and heated the pan, then used pork to make fried rice - lard, once heated, has a fragrant aroma, which is more fragrant than other cooking oils.

A pot of egg fried rice, with the blessing of lard, suddenly became fragrant! Before it was even out of the pot, Gu Qingyi couldn't help swallowing three times.

In the steamer, the sausage was cut into two pieces and heated by steam, and indeed a faint aroma of Maozi liquor overflowed.

Although Gu Qingyi didn't know what Maozi wine was, she felt that its aroma was quite strong. Mixed with the aroma of meat, she couldn't help but stare at the steamer for a long time.

As for Gui Geng... Gu Qingyi had already kicked him back to the swimming pool in the yard.

It's just an old turtle, why should it eat rice!

I turned around and poured the seafood and some frozen shrimps from the New Year's gifts that Mr. Fang had given me into the swimming pool, letting it eat at the buffet.

There was a pot of fried rice, and Chen Yan served a big bowl to himself and Gu Qingyi respectively. The two of them sat at the dining table and ate it up in no time with sausages.

The more Gu Qingyi ate, the brighter her eyes became. She felt that the sausage filled with Maozi wine tasted so wonderful that it was the most delicious thing she had ever tasted in her life.

Chen Yan saw this and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mrs. Gu, you... haven't you ever had a drink before?"

Gu Qingyi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Alcohol can make one's spirits turbid and their minds confused, which is not good for cultivation. That's why I never drank alcohol before I reached the Celestial Realm. And after I reached the Celestial Realm, I was on the Prison Suppression Platform, and there was no alcohol to drink there."

"Do you want to drink? We have a few cans of beer at home." Chen Yan said casually.

Gu Qingyi thought about it, shook his head and said, "I'd better not drink it."

"What?"

"I'm afraid you'll suffer."

"what?"

Gu Qingyi slowly put down his chopsticks and looked Chen Yan in the eye. "That year, I broke through to the Celestial Realm and was taken back to the Gu family. On the eve of my departure from the Prison Tower, the Taoist friends who had been guarding the tower for many years saw me off. The commander of the tower even opened two jars of his treasured wine. I drank from them that day. But... the result wasn't good."

Chen Yan's eyes changed: "You can't be..."

"Well, when I left the next day, none of the fellow Taoists who had been drinking with me the night before came to see me off—the town commander told me that I had beaten them all up and sent them to the clinic after getting drunk." Gu Qingyi spoke calmly in that small, clipped voice with a hint of corn, "The town commander said that I would beat people up when I was drunk and that I was really aggressive."

"..."

Chen Yan silently pulled the plate of Maozi wine and sausage in front of Gu Qingyi towards himself.

Gu Qingyi watched his movements and smiled faintly: "Don't worry, this shouldn't be a problem. That time I drank half a jar and that's when I felt like that."

After a pause, Gu Qingyi looked at Chen Yan: "What did you do when you went out today?"

"Well, I went shopping with my friends and also went to the temple to worship Buddha." Chen Yan answered casually.

Gu Qingyi thought of the ancient temple near Luo Yunzhai and nodded. "I saw you were texting with someone on your phone before dinner... The smile on your face... The person you went out with today should be a girl, right?"

"How did you know?"

Gu Qingyi said calmly, "If you were sending WeChat messages to a man, you wouldn't smile so meanly."

Chen Yan simply nodded: "Yes, it's a girl."

"girlfriend?"

Chen Yan thought about it and felt that there was nothing to hide from Gu Qingyi - he had previously misunderstood that she was his childhood sweetheart, but now she was his stepmother.

There’s no need to hide my son’s relationship from his stepmother, right?
I, Mr. Chen, am a kind-hearted person who walks upright and sits upright. What is there to be afraid of?

I don't really want to act out that kind of script...

"She's not my girlfriend now, but...if things develop further, she will probably be." Chen Yan said sincerely.

"Yeah." Gu Qingyi nodded. She lowered her head, as if she was thinking about something. After a moment, she raised her head and pretended to be calm. With that deliberately pretentious tone, mixed with her sweet little voice, she said, "You are not young anymore. It's better to find a partner and start a family soon, so that you can have more children for the Chen family..."

Chen Yan rolled his eyes.

Big sister, are you getting too immersed in the role?

What you said seems to be taking you as the mistress of my Chen family.

"I can only stay in your world for half a year at most. After the ghost marriage is completed, I will go back to practice and pursue a breakthrough.

Before I leave, if you have decided that woman is your partner, you can bring her to meet me.

I...will give her a blessing."

Chen Yan curled his lips. He thought to himself: That's enough, I'm getting excited while acting.

You cultivate the way of war, and are not good at magic and luck. Your blessing may not be as effective as the spells I can give her to increase her luck and fortune.

but……

"You really can only stay for half a year?"

"Seeking the Breaking Mirror and pursuing the Great Dao is my lifelong pursuit." Gu Qingyi nodded solemnly and said, "If this marriage hadn't delayed me for a year, I would have already entered into a state of seclusion to seek another breakthrough."

Chen Yan smiled tentatively: "Then... Miss Gu, before you leave, can you do something for me? You promised me to help you complete the ghost marriage and recognize you as my legitimate mother. You just protect me, let me walk sideways, and help me beat people up."

"Okay, tell me, who do you want to beat?" Gu Qingyi picked up another piece of sausage and put it into his mouth.

"I have two goals now. One of them is a little far away, in Hong Kong City. After the New Year, when we have finished preparing for the ghost marriage, I will take you there.

The other one is in Jinling City. He offended a friend of mine and also offended me, so..."

Gu Qingyi knocked on the bowl. "It's not difficult. Since he's in Jinling Prefecture, I can just go out and help you beat him up. It's a piece of cake. What's his name, where does he live, and how badly he should be injured? Just tell me."

As Gu Xiaoniang was speaking, she was secretly thinking in her heart, I am the legitimate mother of the Chen family. Someone has offended the only bloodline of the Chen family, and I am helping to beat them up... The ancestor should agree, right?

"This man's name is Luo Qing, and he lives in Luo Yunzhai at the foot of Qixia Mountain..." Chen Yan said quickly.

"..."

Gu Qingyi's eyes widened and she looked at Chen Yan curiously.

Uh... I just beat up this guy last night, and he even demolished his house!
He was very cooperative and submissive, doing whatever he was told to do.

I'm going to beat someone up again today?
This... isn't good?

I, Gu Xiaoniang, also have to save face!

Otherwise... should I go and beat him with my face covered?
