Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

Li Mochou shrank back somewhat awkwardly and whispered, "Disciple Li Mochou, greetings to Master!"

Song Yuanshan just looked at Li Mochou seriously at this moment, and then nodded with a faint smile.

"She has good aptitude and a solid foundation. It seems you've been teaching her seriously over the past two years."

Song Qian said proudly, "Of course not. In order to lay a solid foundation for her, my brother specially obtained the Nine Yin Manual. This martial art, which originated from Taoism, is best at laying a solid foundation."

Song Yuanshan chuckled twice, "That's also your brother's credit, what does it have to do with you?"

"Why doesn't it matter?"

Victoria Song was not convinced, "My brother is a hermit maniac, he would be in seclusion for several months at a time. Do you know how I have been spending the past two years? I stayed in the deep mountains and forests every day, and could only pass the time by instructing my disciples in their practice.

They can grow up healthily, and that is all thanks to me!"

As she spoke, she pinched Xiao Longnu's cheek and said with a chuckle, "Long'er, come on, call me Bad Grandpa!"

Xiao Longnu snorted. Although she was young, she was not stupid. She ignored her master's instigation and called out sweetly to Song Yuanshan, "Master!"

"Why call me Master? Call me Grandpa!"

Song Yuanshan felt his heart melt. He picked up Xiao Longnu and laughed, "You are so cute. You are much cuter than your master when he was a child."

Xiao Longnu asked curiously, "Was my master disobedient when he was little?"

"Well, you weren't obedient at all and got beaten a lot. Long Er, you have to be a good boy from now on, understand?"

It has always been Old Song's regret that his daughter was raised astray and failed to become a lady. Now, when he saw Xiaolongnu, his desire to raise a little lady suddenly became hot again.

Such a cute little girl, I will raise her as my granddaughter from now on!

Holding Xiao Longnu in his arms, Song Yuanshan looked out the door again, "Where's your brother? Why didn't he come back with you?"

He was also puzzled. This girl had been clinging to his brother since she was a child, and wanted to follow him wherever he went. It was really strange that she didn't follow him this time.

"He..." Song Qian curled her lips, a little unhappy, "He went to find a wife!"

"Looking for a wife?"

Old Song's eyes suddenly lit up, "Which girl does he like?"

"Who else could it be? Lu Qingxue!" Song Qian's smile faded a little, "Oh, by the way, she's now the Young Palace Master of the Yihua Palace, a sacred place in the martial arts world. She might even be the Palace Master.

My brother is going after the dowry!"

"What nonsense!"

Song Yuanshan glared at her and said, "You know the relationship between your brother and Qingxue, how could he be the kind of person who covets other people's property?

By the way, when did he leave? Did he say when he would be back?

"I don't know..." Victoria Song recalled her brother's anxious look and couldn't help but smile, "If nothing unexpected happens, my brother is already in Yihua Palace. I estimate he will be back next month at the latest."

"That's it..."

Song Yuanshan stroked his chin, "Then his marriage cannot be delayed... Your mother went to the Lin Mansion to chat with Daiyu. It's a good opportunity for you to come back, so go to the Lin Mansion and have a chat, and bring your mother back by the way.

"You're just messing around with couples all day long. If Qingxue knew about this, who knows how disgusted she would be!"

With that, he carried Little Dragon Girl and went out directly. "Long'er, I'll take you to visit some relatives. Let's go to your Uncle Lu's house and discuss the marriage between our two families. You don't have to save dinner for me!"

Victoria Song said "oh" and looked at the empty yard.

My elder brother was not at home, my father went to visit relatives, and my mother also went to visit the Lin family. After all this time, I felt like an unwanted child.

.....

The Lu family and the Song family are on the same street, not far apart.

The lights in the Lu family's reception room were on. Song Yuanshan was holding Xiaolongnu and standing opposite Lu Changhe.

Lu Changhe was a little thin, with some gray hair on his temples. His blue shirt was a little white from being washed. With his serious expression, he didn't look like a warrior in the Xuanyi Guard, but more like an old scholar.

"You haven't been to my house for a long time!"

Lu Changhe poured a cup of tea for Song Yuanshan, and his eyes were always on Xiaolongnu. He was a little confused. Why did Old Song come to visit with a little girl in his arms?

"I came here today to discuss something with you."

Song Yuanshan chuckled, rubbed Xiaolongnu's head, and said with a smile: "I think Song Xuan and Qingxue's wedding can be prepared."

Lu Changhe showed an unhappy look on his face, "That bastard from your family drove my daughter away in anger back then, and now he dares to bring up marriage?"

Song Yuanshan was not angry either, "Song Qian came back today and said that her brother went to Yihua Palace to look for Qingxue. If nothing unexpected happens, the conflict between the two should be resolved.

As their father, you should be aware of the affection they have had since childhood. As long as they talk it out, marriage is only a matter of time.

They're both not young anymore, I think there's no need to drag it out any longer!"

Lu Changhe frowned, thinking about something, and did not speak for a while.

He was angry.

It was you who said that we were going to get engaged, and it was you who said that we wanted to cancel the engagement later. Do you really think that my Lu family is good-tempered and that we are determined to have my daughter?

Song Yuanshan was not in a hurry and drank tea leisurely.

After finishing his cup of tea, he smiled and said, "This little girl is Song Qian's disciple. She is less than five years old this year."

Lu Changhe looked puzzled. They were just talking about the marriage between the two families, so how did they bring up Song Qian's disciples again?

Song Yuanshan continued, "I remember when our two families met to discuss the engagement, Qingxue and Song Xuan stayed for one night, then left the imperial capital and became disciples of the Yihua Palace.

Calculating the time, it was five years ago, right? "

Lu Changhe was stunned, then stood up suddenly and stared at Xiaolongnu without blinking.

Just now he just felt that this little girl was well-behaved and cute, but now after Song Yuanshan's guidance, Lu Changhe looked at Xiaolongnu's eyebrows and eyes, and inexplicably felt that she was somewhat similar to his eldest daughter.

Five years ago, one night, a little girl over four years old, Victoria Song's apprentice, ran away from home...

All these things, all kinds of information coming together, made Lu Changhe have the answer in his mind.

Alas, I am really being taken advantage of by the Song family!

Chapter 322 Lin Daiyu uproots the weeping willow

Lu Changhe took out a bag of dry tobacco and subconsciously lit it.

But after taking a look at the curious Xiaolongnu, he finally didn't light the cigarette.

After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Little girl, what's your name?"

Xiao Long Nu was not at all nervous and said with a smile, "Uncle, my name is Long Er!"

"Long'er...where are your parents from?"

"I don't know. I've lived in the ancient tomb with my master since I was a child." Xiao Longnu counted on her fingers and said, "Later, my master wanted to practice sleeping skills, so my sister and I followed the new master."

Lu Changhe's expression changed. "Living in an ancient tomb?"

Song Yuanshan moved his lips as if he was speaking, but no sound came out. Lu Changhe was stunned, and then the anger on his face subsided a little.

"These two are so unreasonable! How could they let a child stay in an ancient tomb?"

Although it has not been confirmed yet, Lu Changhe has subconsciously regarded Xiaolongnu as his own granddaughter. When he heard that such a little girl grew up in an ancient tomb, he felt heartbroken.

Song Yuanshan laughed and said, "So what do you think about this marriage? Do you really plan to drag it out like this?"

Lu Changhe sighed, "Let's wait until they come back. At least, I need to have a good talk with your kid!"

We must talk, but we must also beat him up!

......

Imperial capital, Lin family.

The Lin family is now the new elite in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Last year, Lin Ruhai was promoted to the Minister of Revenue. In the same year, he entered the cabinet and became one of the elders.

It can be said that as a civil servant, Lin Ruhai has almost reached the pinnacle. At his age, perhaps within ten years, he can become the chief minister of the cabinet and truly become the number one person in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As a cabinet minister, countless officials and dignitaries sent visiting cards every day, hoping to meet him, but basically they were kept outside before they could even get through the gate.

For example, at this moment, Song Qian and Li Mochou were stopped outside the gate. The person in charge of the Lin family at the gate did not recognize her, Miss Song.

Fortunately, the people of the Lin family saw that she had an extraordinary temperament and did not dare to neglect her. After asking about her identity and background, they quickly informed the family.

Not long after, Lin Daiyu came quickly accompanied by two maids.

"cousin!"

Seeing Song Qian's face that had hardly changed at all, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but be happy. She trotted forward and held Song Qian's hand. The two of them talked and laughed in low voices, and then walked towards the inner courtyard.

Li Mochou followed behind, carefully looking at the huge Lin Mansion. Although it was not luxurious, it was elegant and grand, revealing nobility everywhere. Apart from anything else, just in terms of area, it was several times larger than the Song family's.

Song's mother was waiting at the entrance of the inner courtyard. When she saw Song Qian and others coming, a smile appeared on her face.

"You damn girl, you still remember to come back after more than two years!"

Song's mother complained about her children not coming home for more than two years, but along the way she kept asking her daughter about what had happened in the past two years. When she heard that she had not encountered any danger and had only practiced hard in the mountains for two and a half years, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where's your brother, that brat? Why didn't he come with you?"

When Song Xuan was mentioned, Lin Daiyu, who had been smiling beside Song's mother, seemed to prick up her ears.

Over the past two years, Song's mother came to chat with her from time to time. With her intelligence, how could she not see what the other person was thinking?

But Lin Daiyu was not disgusted. Instead, she felt a little happy in her heart, and subconsciously spoke and acted with a bit of flattery.

"My brother went to find a wife and hasn't returned to the capital yet!"

When Victoria Song spoke, the atmosphere in the inner courtyard suddenly became stagnant.

Lin Daiyu, who was originally full of expectations, turned pale in an instant, and the hand that was holding Song's mother's arm trembled subconsciously.

Mother Song frowned. "What nonsense are you talking about? Your brother hasn't even gotten married yet, so where's his wife coming from? You're already grown up, so why are you still so casual in your words and actions?"

"I'm not talking nonsense!"

Song Qian said casually, "My brother went to find Lu Qingxue. They were already discussing marriage five years ago. At that time, my brother couldn't get married because of his cultivation. Now that he has achieved success in cultivation, he can start a family and build a career.

Oh, by the way, Mom, my dad went to the Lu family to discuss the marriage, so he asked me to call you home early to prepare, as there are a lot of things to do."

After hearing what Victoria Song said, her mother was speechless.

If she mentioned anyone else, Song's mother might not believe it, but when she mentioned the eldest girl of the Lu family, she had to believe it.

Although she liked Daiyu very much, she also knew that her son had always had his eyes on the eldest daughter of the Lu family. Once this boy made up his mind, she couldn't change it even as a mother.

She held Lin Daiyu's soft hand with some regret, "Dayu, I originally planned to stay with you for a few more days, but my family has a wedding to prepare for, so I have to go back early."

Lin Daiyu said in a daze, "Well, then I'll see my aunt off."

She couldn't remember how she saw her aunt and cousin off, nor how she returned to her own yard. Her head was buzzing, as if something she had been looking forward to had suddenly collapsed.

Unconsciously, she came to the willow tree in the corner of the yard. Looking at the willow tree, which was still swaying in the wind despite the fallen leaves in the cold winter, she felt an inexplicable anger in her heart.

"Wake it up for me!"

The next moment, the veins on the fair hands of this once sickly little cousin bulged. With a sudden shout, the internal force in her body circulated rapidly. With a bang, the tall weeping willow was pulled out by her by the roots!

The maids standing by were all stunned, covering their mouths and watching the scene in disbelief.

Who would have thought that the eldest daughter, who has always been a lady from a noble family, actually has such a violent side in her bones.

Lin Daiyu was sweating profusely and gasping for breath. She looked at the willow tree thrown on the ground with a blank look in her eyes and muttered to herself.

"I can already uproot the weeping willow, but do you still remember the man who promised to take me on a journey through the martial arts world?"

Outside the courtyard, Lin Ruhai pushed the door open and walked in.

Looking at the messy yard, he waved his hand to signal the maids to leave.

When he heard the news that Song Qian had returned to Beijing from the housekeeper in the front yard, he had a bad feeling in his heart and rushed over, just in time to see his daughter pulling out the weeping willow tree.

Putting aside other things, one thing is certain, the martial arts that Victoria Song passed on to her daughter are indeed real kung fu!

With Daiyu's strength, she can go straight into the battlefield as a vanguard even if she puts on heavy armor!

"father!"

Seeing her father clearly, Lin Daiyu burst into tears and threw herself on him, choking with grievance and sadness, saying, "My cousin is getting married!"

Lin Ruhai sighed, "In the past few years, he has only visited you a few times. I already know that his heart is not on you."
