Chapter 6 Invitation(1/2)
After seeing that person's appearance clearly, Xie Wanyou paused as he was about to step out the door, quickly stepped back, and hid sideways behind the door.
Not far away from the door of Jishi Pavilion, shopkeeper Xue's smooth and flattering voice came over vaguely: "Oh, don't worry, Miss, the elixir you want is only available in Jishi Pavilion now! We have already
Find the materials and let the alchemist start refining as soon as possible, I guarantee you will be satisfied!"
Xie Wanyou looked through the crack in the door and saw that Jishi Pavilion was brightly lit, and in the majestic carved red door, the arrogant shopkeeper Xue and the snobbish boy changed their previous attitude and were flatteringly sending a woman with pearls and green hair out.
The woman had a good face, and the two maids beside her were also neatly dressed. After shopkeeper Xue finished speaking, the woman who was called the eldest lady nodded with satisfaction and gave the maid a look. The maid took something out of her body and handed it to her.
Shopkeeper Xue said with a smile: "Then I'll ask Shopkeeper Xue to take more trouble."
Shopkeeper Xue happily held the silver in his hands: "No, no, it's Jishi Pavilion's honor to make elixirs for the eldest lady."
It turns out that shopkeeper Xue is still a two-faced person. Xie Wanyou saw it interestingly and narrowed his eyes slightly.
She did recognize the identity of the woman, it was Xie Yanyu, the eldest lady of the Xie family.
Xie Wanyou reviewed the situation of the Xie family in the memory of the original owner. The current head of the Xie family, Xie Mingdong, had five concubines and five children.
Xie Yanyu was the daughter of the main wife, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, while Xie Wanyou was the daughter of the concubine, ranking third, because her mother, Yan, came from a brothel and had a low status, and Xie Wanyou became the least known member of the Xie family.
The escort girl with a sense of presence.
Yan passed away early. When she was still alive, the mistress of the Xie family thought that Yan was charming and charming. Naturally, Xie Yanyu shared the same hatred as her mother. She disliked Xie Wanyou very much and often teamed up with other young masters in the family to tease and bully her.
——It wasn’t until Xie Wanyou discovered his talent for cultivating immortals and gloriously joined the Sword Sect in the world of cultivation that everyone’s attitude towards Xie Wanyou changed drastically overnight.
The spiritual energy in the human world is thin, so mortals in the human world often have no chance of becoming immortals in their lives. If a cultivator comes out of a certain family, then the entire family can ascend to heaven with their chickens and dogs, and occupy a place in the imperial capital.
Because Xie Wanyou was born, the Xie family became one of the rich and powerful in the imperial capital in just a few years, and gained countless wealth and power.
After this incident, the attitude of the entire Xie family towards Xie Wanyou changed drastically. Not only did Xie Mingdong and the mistress of the Xie family begin to greet Xie Wanyou, but Xie Yanyu also put aside her past grudges and became a sister of Xie Wanyou.
Xie Wanyou had been bullied for too long in the past. Once he gained power, his vanity was greatly satisfied. Unknowingly, he was manipulated by the Xie family, and he even began to be eager to obtain more resources for the Xie family to prove his great value.
And part of the reason why Xie Wanyou hooked up with others in Jianzong, clung to powerful people, and pursued fame and fortune was to nurture a greedy family.
Looking at Xie Wanyou now - isn't the Xie family trying to suck the blood of the original owner?
The original owner failed to see clearly the profit-seeking nature of the Xie family and became a stepping stone for the Xie family in vain. Now that she is useless, the Xie family has crossed the river and kicked her aside mercilessly.
Nowadays, Xie Yanyu has enough money to go to Jishi Pavilion, a wealthy man's medicine shop, while Xie Wanyou can only be locked up in a small courtyard where no one cares about, dragging his seriously injured body and waiting to die.
Xie Wanyou's mood was very complicated.
Poor people must be hateful, and hateful people also have miserable sufferings. But no matter what, if she wants to be angry, she should be angry at the ruthless Xie family and the scumbag of Penglai Island, not at nothing.
Xiaobai understands.
Over there, Xie Yanyu had already led the two maids onto the carriage. The exquisite copper bells on the carriage made a pleasant sound. The sound of horse hooves mixed with the ringing and gradually faded away. The carriage quickly disappeared from Xie Wanyou's sight.
.
Xie Wanyou didn't plan to run into Xie Yanyu now, so he hid for a while. When he saw the carriage leaving, he also planned to go back to Xie's mansion.
An inquiring voice suddenly came from beside him: "Do you know the eldest lady of the Xie family?"
Xie Wanyou: "..." Why does Mr. Mo always linger?
She turned her head expressionlessly: "What does it have to do with you?"
Mo Zimao didn't care about her cold face. He was immersed in his own emotions and said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, I always feel that you look familiar... I seem to have seen you somewhere."
"You remembered it wrong." Xie Wanyou turned around and left, but Mo Zimao suddenly realized it at that moment and subconsciously reached out to grab Xie Wanyou's hand: "Yes! I remembered it!"
The original owner had practiced swordsmanship for many years. Although his cultivation was completely lost, his instinct to avoid was still there. Xie Wanyou dodged the outstretched hand and looked at Mo Zimao coldly: "What did you remember?"
Mo Zimao retracted his hand and lowered his voice: "You... you are the third young lady of the Xie family who entered the Sword Sect, right? I saw you once four years ago, and you were much haggard than you were then.
, I didn’t even recognize it the first time.”
With his appearance, he had clearly confirmed Xie Wanyou's identity. Xie Wanyou did not deny it, she pursed her lips and looked at him, already planning to buy a curtain hat and wear it tomorrow.
The first time I came to another world, I still suffered from the disadvantage of being inexperienced.
Three and a half years have passed, and Xie Wanyou didn't expect that someone would still recognize this face. According to the original owner's habit of causing trouble, he might have brought her some trouble.
When Mo Zimao accepted her acquiescence, he looked at Xie Wanyou in disbelief and moved his lips: "You, why are you like this?"
Xie Wanyou twitched the corners of her lips: "Don't you know what happened three and a half years ago?"
Mo Zimao was a little embarrassed and scratched his head: "The Xie family suppressed the news at that time. Besides, no one saw you really... I thought it was just a rumor."
Xie Wanyou did not save any face for the Xie family and said bluntly: "Because the Xie family thought I was embarrassed, they locked me up for three and a half years."
Mo Zimao: "..." Is this a family secret that he can hear?
After realizing the meaning of Xie Wanyou's words, Mo Zimao was shocked: "Wait, are you locked up? Isn't the Xie family just trying to burn bridges by crossing the river?!"
Xie Wanyou: "Who says it's not the case?"
Mo Zimao was shocked. The Xie family looked so sanctimonious, but secretly they were so ungrateful! It didn't matter who they relied on to become one of the first-class dignitaries in the imperial capital!
After eating the shocking melon, Mo Zimao's mind was in a mess, but soon, his mind suddenly became clear and he remembered something crucial.
Xie Wanyou was imprisoned for three and a half years and her cultivation was ruined. It was indeed miserable, but what did she do when she went out today?
She made a pill!
One-time success!
Mo Zimao's whole body was numb, and he couldn't even feel sore this time.
Is this genius?
God cruelly cut off her path to sword cultivation, but actually opened another path for her to cultivate alchemy.
Mo Zimao thought sadly that some people might be so blessed.
Xie Wanyou saw the look of despair on Mo Zimao's face, which looked a bit like the sad frog emoticon on the Internet, and couldn't help but feel a little funny.
She patted Mo Zimao on the shoulder, narrowed her eyes and said, "Master Mo, I think you are a good person, will you help me keep this secret?"
Mo Zimao recovered from the big melon, nodded when he heard the words, and said seriously: "Of course."
Xie Wanyou succeeded in refining alchemy for the first time. Looking at the entire world of cultivation, there are very few alchemists with such talent. The few who have now become world-famous heaven-level alchemists. This shows how strong Xie Wanyou's talent is.
Surprisingly, I will definitely achieve great success in alchemy in the future.
Who will go against the future top alchemist?
Mo Zimao is not stupid, of course he wants to have a good relationship with Xie Wanyou. With this favor, it will be much easier to find Xie Wanyou to make elixirs in the future.
Mo Zimao saw that Xie Wanyou would not let the Xie family suck blood this time, so he said to Xie Wanyou seriously: "If Miss Xie has any difficulties, feel free to come to Mo Mansion to find me."
Xie Wanyou nodded: "Thank you very much."
The sky was a little gloomy, as if it was going to rain, so Xie Wanyou said, "If nothing happens, I'll take my leave first."
"Wait!" Mo Zimao caught up with him in a few steps and asked in a low voice: "Have you decided which alchemy sect you want to join?"
Xie Wanyou: "I haven't decided yet."
Mo Zimao took a deep breath, glanced at the Jishi Pavilion opposite, and finally said: "Although Tianyuan Dan Sect is rich, I feel... it's not humane."
He said a little awkwardly: "Although Bixiao Danzong has declined recently, in terms of reputation, Bixiao Danzong is still better... Actually, I also think..."
Xie Wanyou touched the plush hair lying on his arm. He wanted to go home and play with his little cub as soon as possible. He asked absently: "Are you saying good things for Bixiao Danzong?"
"I...just discuss the matter." Mo Zimao choked and moved away: "Okay, I'm leaving."
Is it because the shopkeeper of Bihetang has always allowed him to refine pills in the alchemy furnace, so he said good things for Bixiao Alchemy Sect? Xie Wanyou smiled, and his impression of Mo Zimao improved a bit.
Mo Zimao walked a little way and saw Xie Wanyou's figure disappearing at the corner of the street, feeling full of complicated feelings.
The Xie family really made a mistake this time, thinking that Xie Wanyou had truly become a waste after losing his cultivation. However, they did not expect that Xie Wanyou still had the talent for alchemy.
Once Xie Wanyou makes great achievements in alchemy, it will even bring greater power and wealth to the Xie family.
Unfortunately, the Xie family completely exposed their ruthless nature this time and directly cut off the possibility of repairing their relationship with Xie Wanyou.
Mo Zimao has already imagined the future scene where the Xie family will regret it, and it is inevitable that he will feel a little gloating about his misfortune.
He walked briskly towards the Mo Mansion. He had to report such a big matter to his father. If anything happened to Xie Wanyou, the Mo family could use their family power to save Xie Wanyou from the Xie family.
After returning to the cold and humid courtyard, Xie Wanyou scrawled a few mouthfuls of red date cake for dinner. Xiaobai ate a lot of red date cake in Bihetang. Now he was not hungry at all, so he only ate a few pieces and left the rest.
The red date cake was pushed toward Xie Wanyou, and she raised her head: "Mom, eat, Xiaobai is full."
Xie Wanyou couldn't help but touch its little head: "Are you really full?"
Xie Xiaobai nodded affirmatively, looked at Xie Wanyou, and his fluffy tail began to wag.
The little thing had been hiding in her sleeves all afternoon. Xie Wanyou was afraid that Xiaobai would be bored, so she pinched its pink paws and asked, "Mother has been talking to others all afternoon. Will the baby be bored?"
This was the first time that his mother called him baby. Xie Xiaobai felt as if his ears were burned by the word. He couldn't help but tremble, but his tail subconsciously waggled faster: "No...as long as I'm with my mother,
Nothing is boring.
Such a good boy!
Xie Wanyou resisted the urge to rub it and said seriously: "Mother, too, as long as you are with Xiaobai, you will be energetic in anything you do."
Xie Xiaobai was a small one, squatting on the table. When he heard Xie Wanyou's words, his tail shyly covered his four paws.
To be continued...
