Chapter two hundred: the situation
Gu Yue said with a smile, and she showed a happy expression because she saw Gu Xiu. There was no way to hear Gu Xiu's complaints from her words.
"Jinmei." Although Gu Xiu and Gu Yue were not as close as sisters when they were in the Gu family, they got along well.
However, seven years ago, Gu Yue and Shi Meilan broke the formation and eavesdropped on the incident, and there was a gap between the two sides.
Gu Xiu didn't know what Gu Yue was thinking, but she no longer had the intention of being a sister.
Even at the birthday party of the city lord's wife, Gu Yue said after being caught in the Illusion Heart Talisman, which always made Gu Xiu wonder about Gu Yue's origin.
Gu Xiu knew that Gu Yue was not a monk who ascended from the immortal world. She was born from her second aunt Pang Zhenna. She grew up from a baby to the present, just like herself.
She couldn't help but wonder if her origin was as strange as hers.
But her original world must be not the world of immortal cultivation.
Because of this, Gu Xiu just wanted to stay away from Gu Yue.
A person with past memories may be stronger or weaker.
And Gu Yue is obviously the former.
But now, Gu Xiu was thinking about Gu Shu, and Gu Yue took the initiative to talk to her again, so she could ask her about it.
"Jiu sister, long time no see." Gu Xiu smiled, "Since I returned to the city lord's mansion three years ago, I have been in seclusion and practiced. I only came out of seclusion several months ago. Because I received a lot of orders for robes, I have been busy making clothes. Jiu Mei is in the kitchen hall now?"
Although these are all shirks, since you want to inquire about things from Gu Yue, you have to take care of your face and feelings.
Gu Yue nodded and said with some shame: "Although I got the quota for selection back then, I was not strong enough. In the end, I used the quota for servile disciples compensated by Senior Xu. Fortunately, I could go to the kitchen hall and get what I wish."
Gu Xiu nodded and asked, "Have Jiu Mei returned home over the years?"
"Xianshui City?"
Gu Xiu nodded, "Of course it's Xianshui City. I have never returned since I left Xianshui City seven years ago. I don't know how my family is doing?"
Gu Yue smiled and said, "I haven't been back, but my fourth brother went back once two years ago."
"Fourth brother?" Gu Xiu ignored Gu Sheng.
Gu Yue nodded, "The fourth brother is born with a divine vein. However, because his cultivation level was too low, he was not selected to be in the Luoying Valley Secret Realm Trial. However, he participated in other trials and is now a disciple of the inner city. However, he has gone to other places to practice and is not in the city lord's mansion.
Two years ago, he took over the task issued by the City Lord's Mansion and wanted to go to Xianghaicheng, so he returned to Xianshui City.
Sister Ba, you don’t know that Xianshui City has changed a lot now. The roads have been widened, the city walls have been raised, the city protection formation has been upgraded, and the number of elixirs and magic weapons sold in the elixir shops and magic weapon shops under the City Lord’s Mansion has also increased, and the grade has also been improved.
I also heard that the current proportion of disciples from the Lord of Xianshui City’s Palace has doubled compared to before.
I heard from my fourth brother that these changes are all on the surface and there are many benefits in the dark.”
Gu Xiu originally meant to ask Gu Yue about the situation of the Gu family, but Gu Yue told her about the situation in Xianshui City.
When she first heard this, Gu Xiu was also a little surprised, but after thinking about it for a moment, she understood why Xianshui City had such a big change.
At that time, City Lord He wanted to have a family with City Lord Yuan, Fengcheng, and get a share of the iron ore mining, but later City Lord Yuan fell, and the new City Lord of Fengcheng should have taken office long ago.
Lord He's plan to divide the iron ore was naturally failed.
But during that trip to Tianfu Mountain, Lord He made greater benefits for Xianshui City.
That is the ancient artifact of the Sky-Slashing Axe.
At Mrs. Nuoling's birthday party, City Lord He presented the Sky-Cutting Axe to Mrs. Nuoling, which is to present it to the Lord of Shangcheng's Mansion.
Even if the Lord Shangcheng City Mansion accepts such a treasure calmly, he will not forget the benefits of Lord He, the one who presented the treasure.
For Shangcheng, which has rich resources and wealth, supporting a small Xianshui City is simply a matter of raising hands.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Xianshui City has undergone its current changes.
"Where is the family? Have you been well in the family over the years?" Gu Xiu asked.
Gu Yue smiled and said, "Everything is good, grandfather and grandmother are in good health, and the second uncle is in charge of the family. Although the uncle and aunt have not advanced, their cultivation is still smooth. By the way, the elder sister successfully transformed her veins six years ago, and the third sister seems to have gotten married..."
"Does Ninth Sister know where the third brother-in-law is from? Is he a monk or a mortal? What kind of cultivation is he? What kind of personality is he? How did he and his third sister meet? Who decides this marriage? Are they in love with each other?"
Gu Xiu was waiting for Gu Shu's news. When he heard Gu Yue talk about Gu Shu's situation, he immediately interrupted Gu Yue and asked in a series of questions.
Gu Yue was slightly stunned, Gu Xiu frowned, "You don't know?"
Gu Yue shook his head, "Some know, some don't know. The third brother-in-law seems to be a monk from the Lord of Yancheng City Mansion. He said that he seems to be in the Sanshen Stage's cultivation level. I don't know the specific age. I don't know that uncle, so I don't know the character.
The seventh sister said that the eldest sister and the third sister went out, and after they came back, they took the third brother-in-law, saying that the third brother-in-law was the son of the third sister's savior. They traveled to Xianshui City, so they invited him to visit the house. The third brother-in-law lived at home for more than ten days and fell in love with the third sister for a long time, so they asked the uncle and aunt to marry the third sister. The third sister himself was very willing, and went with the third brother-in-law to ask for their second uncle and grandfather, grandmother, uncle and aunt to help them.
I heard that the second uncle was worried, so I asked my elder sister, the situation of the third sister and the third brother-in-law being together on weekdays, the situation when they encountered the third brother-in-law, the character of the third brother-in-law she observed these days, and the elder sister had a good evaluation of the third brother-in-law, and the third brother-in-law also took out the jade sign of the identity of the Yancheng City Lord's Mansion. Some of the situations of the Yancheng City Lord's Mansion he mentioned were written to me and my fourth brother-in-law and told me that there was no big difference in the family, so the second uncle finally agreed to the marriage."
"In this way, this marriage is very good?"
Gu Xiu breathed a little relieved, "My ninth sister knows the name of her third brother-in-law. In two months, I will go back to Xianshui City and see my third sister in Yancheng."
Gu Yue seemed to be embarrassed, "My ninth sister doesn't know the name of her third brother-in-law?" Gu Xiu asked again.
"That's not." Gu Yue glanced at Gu Xiu, "Actually, after I learned that my third sister had married the uncle of the Yancheng City Lord's Mansion, I sent a letter to Senior Sister Shi and asked her about her third brother-in-law's situation, but the result was... but..."
Gu Xiu had a vague premonition in his heart, "But what is it?"
"But there is no such person in the investigation. The Yancheng City Lord's Mansion has no such person as Qian Rujiang." Gu Yue said.
"That person's name is Qian Rujiang?"
That faint feeling of uneasiness became reality.
