Chapter 186: Now is not the time

"Why is this happening? Did my brother and sister-in-law make the master angry?... Even if they make you angry, what does it have to do with me? Whether they love you or not, I don't care about them."

Seeing Huangfu Qingmei's eccentric appearance, Ximen Xiaoyu became a little angry when she thought that her brother was like a sick cat, and even she didn't want to stay at home.

"A deep love will last forever, and it will break easily if it is too strong."

Li Xiuyuan looked at the misty color of the lake and sighed softly,

Before Ximen Lone Star got married to Huangfu Qingmei, he reminded him that Huangfu Qingmei was too strong, how could he withstand it?

However, these are not things I want to think about anymore.

Now he just thinks about getting through this spring. As long as summer comes, autumn will be around the corner.

Ximen Xiaoyu was startled after hearing this. He lowered his head and savored what Li Xiuyuan said carefully. It wasn't until a long time passed that he sighed quietly: "I don't know if my brother marrying the princess is the result he wanted."

.”

Li Xiuyuan looked at her and laughed, and said calmly: "Like a fish drinking water, you know whether you are warm or cold. Maybe this is the life your brother wants."

Ximen Xiaoyu glared at him and replied with a pouted mouth: "If I met such a man, I wouldn't even look at him. I don't know what the princess was thinking at the beginning, traveling thousands of miles from the capital to find her brother.

....."

Li Xiuyuan wishes that it were not him. I am afraid that the princess you are talking about will spill her blood into the city lord's palace. Even your father wouldn't dare to stop her, right?

If that's true, then Chen Shanshan is the most innocent person.

Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan looked at her and said seriously: "No matter what happens in the future, you must protect yourself... No one is worth your efforts, even your parents. It is their responsibility to give birth to you and raise you.

....."

"If you are not happy staying here, then go back to live in the Marshal's Mansion in Fucheng. Isn't that your home too? You have already reached such a height in cultivation, and you just need to work hard in the future..."

It was rare to meet a good apprentice, and Li Xiuyuan didn't want her to feel sad because of him or Huangfu Qingmei.

The road to spiritual practice was long, and there were only a few people who could accompany him in the end. He wanted to tell Ximen Xiaoyu these truths in front of him, but he was afraid of scaring her.

Waving his hand, Li Xiuyuan left the small shop by the lake. He took Ximen Xiaoyu with him and walked slowly towards the small wine shop. Since he was still living here, he had to ring the bell.

He can't let down the guests in Ding'an City who like to drink his wine.

...

When Ximen Xiaoyu returned to the city lord's palace with a depressed look on his face, several women were drinking tea, and Ximen Lone Star followed his father to who knows where.

Wang Lianhua looked at her daughter's unhappy look and couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Yu, didn't you go to practice piano with your master? Why are you back so early today?"

Ximen Xiaoyu stepped forward, put the black sword box on the table, looked at Wang Lianhua and replied: "Master didn't open the door, he ran to the lake alone to hurt the spring."

Wang Lianhua was stunned and blurted out: "Spring has just arrived. How can he, a young man, hurt the spring? He seems to be a few years younger than you?"

Ximen Xiaoyu shook his head, looked at her and replied: "Does this hurt spring have to be divided into seasons and ages?"

In her opinion, what Li Xiuyuan said seemed to be talking about herself, her brother and the princess, and more like a warning to Ximen Xiaoyu not to follow her brother's path.

Zhuang Waner's eyes lit up when she looked at the sword box on the table. She reached out and opened it to take out the Tingyu Sword... Unexpectedly, her reaction was the same as Ximen Xiaoyu's, and she couldn't pick it up under her tentacles.

After taking a breath, he took out the long sword from the sword case, put it in his hand and inspected it carefully.

"The name of the sword is Tingyu?" Zhuang Waner looked at the two words engraved on the sword and said softly: "What a Tingyu sword. This is the best long sword I have ever seen. I'm afraid even the swordsmiths in the city can also make it.

There is no such sword!"

After saying that, he waved his power, and a clear chant sounded in the flower hall, like the spring breeze blowing or the lingering autumn rain.

Huangfu Qingmei, who was sitting aside drinking tea, was startled. She stood up and took the Tingyu Sword from Zhuang Waner, placed it on her chest, put it on a bunch of black hair, and blew gently...

.

After a long while, he sighed quietly, returned the long sword to Zhuang Wan'er without saying a word, and sat down, holding a teacup in his hands, dazed.

She was thinking, if she hadn't been willful and thought this guy was greedy for money, would the Tingyu Sword have been renamed Qingmei?

Wang Lianhua saw her thoughts, looked at Ximen Xiaoyu and said: "Since your master is so good, I will find some good materials someday and ask him to cast them for your brother and sister-in-law!"

"The materials for making swords are available in the city. I just don't look down on the masters there and don't let them waste it... Next time I go back, I will look for it. Isn't it just a matter of two long swords?"

Seeing her daughter's depressed appearance, Zhuang Waner felt heartbroken.

Ximen Xiaoyu looked at the three people in front of him, took a deep breath, and said softly: "My master said that he would never make swords again, saying it was too much trouble... I just went in and found out,

Even the sword-making platform is gone..."

Not only Huangfu Qingmei, but also herself, felt a hint of heartache at this moment. Unexpectedly, her master had only cast a long sword, so she felt tired and did not want to open the furnace to cast it again.

Huangfu Qingmei originally had the same idea as her mother, she was worried that she would go find that guy and ask him to forge another long sword for her... After hearing what Ximen Xiaoyu said, she couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart.

Just like her favorite toy accidentally broke, she didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan just forged a sword for Ximen Xiaoyu, and she didn't want to go to the sword-making platform anymore.

Only Wang Lianhua, an outsider, seemed to understand something.

This guy hasn't received a single spiritual stone since he taught his daughter to play the piano. He spent his own money to cast this unique weapon, and he didn't even ask Ximen Xiaoyu about the sword-making materials.

If you use this to say that this guy is stingy and greedy for money, she won't believe it even to death?

You know, in Ding'an City, a good iron sword can be sold for thousands of spirit stones. The Tingyu Sword in front of you can be said to be a priceless treasure. I'm afraid someone will snatch it up if you pay 100,000 spirit stones.

Take action.

Thinking of this, she felt that she should go see that guy with her daughter. No matter what the relationship between her daughter-in-law and him was, at least her daughter was very precious in the eyes of that guy.

"This guy is as proud as ever!" Huangfu Qingmei couldn't help but sigh quietly.

There is no swordsmith in the wilderness who, once he forges a good spiritual sword, would like to let the whole world know about it, and then take the opportunity to increase his worth.

Fortunately for this guy, he stopped without saying a word.

Zhuang Wan'er also didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan was so decisive. After Ting Yujian was released, he even put away the sword-making platform. This was Mingzhi.

Just as Ximen Xiaoyu said, I'm afraid this guy will never make a sword again in the future.

If this is true, this Tingyu Sword will become the only sword in the wilderness made by the owner of a wine shop.

Ximen Xiaoyu looked at his mother and said timidly: "My master said something today that made me feel a little weird and I couldn't quite understand it."

When Huangfu Qingmei heard this, she quickly asked: "What did he say? Let's hear it!"

Wang Lianhua also asked: "Xiaoyu, what kind of blow will your master receive?"

Ximen Xiaoyu looked at his mother and smiled and said: "How could he be hit? I heard from the waiter at the lakeside shop that the master would go there every afternoon to eat a pot of meat and drink two glasses of wine."

After that, she looked at Huangfu Qingmei and replied: "The master muttered to himself: Love lasts forever, and strength is easy to break. I didn't quite understand it, and I was embarrassed to ask him. After all, this sentence was not meant for anyone.

I heard it."

When Zhuang Wan'er heard this, she couldn't help but look at her daughter and sighed in her heart. She didn't know if it was for Huangfu Qingmei or Ximen Lone Star."

...

At this moment, Li Xiuyuan was sitting in the shop. In front of him was a sword box made of ironwood. Lying inside was a sword that looked exactly like the Tingyu sword, except that two words were engraved on the sword: Qingfeng.

"Qing" is the homophone of "green eagle". He hoped that the green eagle would have smooth sailing after transforming into a gust of wind, soaring ninety thousand miles into the blue clouds.

The only difference is that the cloud pattern on the sword body is replaced by a circle next to a circle, which looks like water waves and a whirlwind.

This is the difference between the two long swords.

The Tingyu Sword is indeed suitable for Ximen Xiaoyu. This material was originally obtained by the ascetic monk and Yan Ruobing who wanted to kill him on the way.

Thinking that he was about to leave but left his own legend in the wilderness, Li Xiuyuan showed a satisfied smile on his face.

He decided to start brewing wine tomorrow, firstly to fulfill the agreement with Ximen Lone Star, which was something he agreed to do.

Secondly, he wanted to brew more wine and leave it for Li Qiu Shui to digest slowly later. After all, he would not return for nearly forty-five years.

Even if you bring an apprentice, the brewing process is different from person to person. For the same recipe, but with different masters, the wines brewed will naturally be different.

Just when I was thinking about whether to go to Li Qiu Shui, there was a knock on the door from Li Qiu Shui outside the store.

Putting away the Qingfeng Sword, Li Yuan opened the store door and saw a woman about 20 years old standing behind Li Qiushui.

"It's still early at this time, why did you close the door?" Li Qiushui looked at him and asked.

Li Xiuyuan thought about it and replied: "I just came back from the lake, and I was wondering if I should go find you. I will start making wine tomorrow."

Li Qiushui looked at him and nodded, pointing to the woman behind him and saying, "This is Xiao Hong. She has been with me since she was a child. From now on, she will learn the wine-making techniques from you."

Li Xiuyuan looked at her, shook his head, and said softly: "You are very good at picking the time. Do you know that I will start brewing wine tomorrow?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Xiao Hong and said: "There is no skill in making wine, you just have to endure some hardships and put in some effort. If you can't stand it in the future, just find two guys to help you, such as washing rice, washing vats, and steaming these tiring things.

Leave all the work to the guys."

Li Qiushui looked at him and smiled: "Don't worry about this, Xiaohong is in the middle stage of distraction, so these tasks will not be difficult for her."

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't say it's her, even I don't want to keep brewing sometimes. This repetitive thing happens every day, it's very annoying."

Li Qiushui glared at him, took Xiaohong's hand and smiled: "My Xiaohong said that as long as there are spiritual stones to count every day, she is willing to do it no matter how tired she is."

Li Xiuyuan couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Yes, I am already a greedy person in the eyes of some people, and now I have a greedy second shopkeeper, which is quite good."

Li Qiushui looked at him and laughed, and said: "We are just open for business, it doesn't matter what she wants! She wants to buy it or not!"

Xiaohong looked at Li Xiuyuan and couldn't help but ask: "Shopkeeper, your place is so small, where can you make wine?"

When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he looked at Li Qiushui and laughed strangely.

Li Qiushui glared at Li Xiuyuan, took Xiaohong's hand and walked towards the back of the house. Within a moment, Xiaohong screamed: "Oh my god, isn't this backyard too big?"

Li Xiuyuan sighed softly: "I hope you will still like this place in the next few decades."

Xiao Hong, who followed Li Qiushui, looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked timidly: "Can I choose a room inside? It's a good place to rest when I'm free."

Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at her and smiled: "This will be your home from now on. You can get married and have children here. As long as you don't tear down this yard, you can live there as long as you want."

Li Qiu Shui was unhappy when he heard that, so he came over, looked at him and said with a smile: "What do you mean, now you want to be the shopkeeper?"

Li Xiuyuan was startled, shook his head and said, "Now is not the time."
