Volume 1 First Sight in Life Chapter 3 Changsun Mansion

Thinking about what the young master just said, Chu Li couldn't sleep. Although he had lived in this slum for more than three months, Chu Li felt very satisfied.

Although he had no worries about food and clothing during his days in the mansion, Chu Li felt exhausted and bored by the intrigues every day. Moreover, the young master's current position in the mansion is very delicate. Although the master of the house protects the young master, it is not difficult to see from the performance of the master of the house last time.

The head of the family is already powerless. If the head of the family is gone one day, Mrs. Hua will be the first to get rid of the young master.

Thinking of this, Chu Li couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Young Master..."

"I haven't slept yet." The eldest grandson didn't fall asleep either.

Being interrupted by Zhang Sunyi, Chu Li couldn't even say what she wanted to say, "Well..."

"What's the matter? Chu Li is worried?" Changsun asked.

"Master, why should we go back? I don't want the master to live in this slum. I will do more work and earn more money so that we can move out, but... we don't actually need to go back to the house."

Chu Li grabbed Chang Sun's arm, and she was a little too anxious because of her anxiety.

"Okay, Chu Li, I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, you don't have to worry about me." Changsun comforted.

"But, Master..." Chu Li was about to say something but was interrupted by Zhang Sun.

"Go to sleep. When dawn comes, it's a new beginning. We have to face new challenges, so keep your spirits high." After Changsun said this, he turned to look at Chu Li.

Seeing Changsun's firm eyes, Chuli's anxious heart calmed down for some reason. She nodded, then hugged Changsun's arm and fell asleep deeply.

The next day, the eldest grandson got up as usual when the first ray of sunshine broke through the sky. After a simple wash, he went out for a walk as before. When the eldest grandson came back from his walk, Chu Li had already made breakfast.

The two had a simple breakfast, and Chu Li put away the dishes. After Chu Li had arranged everything, Changsun said, "Okay, let's go."

"Well..." Chu Li obviously had feelings for the place where he had lived for more than three months, and he was feeling a little depressed.

The eldest grandson saw Chu Li's reluctance, but he had no choice but to leave. After listening to the conversation between the two servants yesterday, the eldest grandson knew that the only way to find a way out of the current situation was to return to the house, otherwise he and Chu Li would be together for the rest of their lives.

Living under the supervision of Mrs. Hua, if one day the old man is gone, Mrs. Hua will no longer have any scruples. At that time, her and Chu Li's lives will be completely in Mrs. Hua's hands.

Chu Li locked the door reluctantly, took one last look at the place that had given her warmth for more than three months, turned around and left with her eldest grandson.

The two of them left here like this, and they never came back for a long time. Over the long years, the memories of these three months have always given them warmth.

After leaving the slum, the two walked on the road back to the city. It was only a dozen miles, but it was a long journey for the eldest grandson. The eldest grandson, who had been pampered since childhood, was weak and his physical strength was not even as good as that of Chu Li, who was one year younger than him.

, so there were stops and starts along the way.

Chu Li was always worried during the journey, but Changsun looked calm. The two of them were silent all the way, but Chu Li couldn't help but break the silence in the end.

"Master, if we go back like this, will Mrs. Hua..." Chu Li wanted to say whether Mrs. Hua would do anything unexpected to the young master, but she thought that saying this would be disrespectful to Mrs. Hua, so she swallowed her words halfway.

Changsun stopped. He happened to feel tired and wanted to stop and rest for a while.

The eldest grandson turned to look at Chu Li, who was looking down thoughtfully, and guessed what she had not finished saying, "Are you trying to say that Mrs. Hua has ill intentions towards me? Now that you have come out, why did you go back and throw yourself into a trap?"

"Well..." Chu Li nodded.

"Chu Li, have you ever heard the saying that the most dangerous place is the safest place? The reason why Mrs. Hua hasn't done anything to me yet is because of grandpa. If we can still seek grandpa's asylum in the house,

Then in this slum we are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, Mrs. Hua can drop the knife hanging on our necks at any time." Changsun said calmly, but the ruthlessness revealed in his words was not like that of a thirteen-year-old.

The young man spit it out from his mouth.

"But Master, Master's body..." Chu Li wanted to say that Master's body is getting weaker and weaker, and he may not be able to protect us for much longer, but he thought that saying this would be disrespectful to Master, so he only said half of his words.

"I know about grandpa's body, but now we can only return to the house and look for a glimmer of hope in this desperate situation," said the eldest grandson.

After listening to the young master's words, Chu Li knew that the young master had made up his mind, and now there was only one way for the two of them to go, so Chu Li no longer hesitated.

At noon, the two finally reached the city gate. Looking at Lishan City so close at hand, Changsun could not help but marvel again.

Lishan City looked even more majestic from a closer look, and the aura that hit his face made Zhangsun feel as if he was facing an ancient giant beast.

Walking into the city gate, the city and the outside seem to be two different worlds. The hustle and bustle in the city makes Zhangsun, who has been living a peaceful life for several months, a little uncomfortable. There are all kinds of shouting and bargaining sounds coming from the street stalls, okay?

lively.

The two followed their memories and came to the Changsun Mansion. The entire Lishan City was built against the mountain, and the buildings were built on the mountain according to the terrain. The Changsun Mansion was built at the highest point in the city. Such a superior terrain also highlighted the Changsun Mansion.

The status of a family, the ruler of Lishan City.

The eldest grandson looked at the vermilion gate of the mansion. The two stone lions in front of the mansion were lifelike, as if they were about to bite people. They were so consistent with the mansion on TV in his previous life, but they were even more impressive.

The eldest grandson did not enter the house for a long time, while Chu Li stood quietly behind the young master. The two of them, dressed in tatters, stood infatuatedly at the door of the eldest grandson's house, making people think they were two beggars who had never seen the world.

When the servant at the gate saw the two "beggars" standing at the door and refused to leave, he became impatient and shouted: "Where are these beggars from? I wonder if this is the Changsun Mansion? Get out of the way."

When Chu Li saw that this servant dared to talk to the young master like this, he was about to have a fit and teach the servant a lesson, but he didn't expect the young master to suddenly open his mouth.

"Where did you come from, you dog slave? I've blinded your dog eyes and you can't even recognize me. Why don't you want to stay in Changsun's Mansion?" Changsun seemed to have changed into a different person, yelling and domineering at his servants.

It looks even scarier than the stone lion next to it that seems to be trying to bite people.

The servant guarding the door was startled by the sudden momentum caused by the eldest grandson. When he looked closely, it was really the eldest son. He was immediately panicked. However, he suddenly remembered that Mrs. Hua had sent someone to tell him not to make any announcement if the young master came back, and to quietly tell the young master.

The young master took it to the madam.

Thinking of this, the servant who looked after the door suddenly lost his mind and wondered whether he should let the eldest grandson enter the house.

When the eldest grandson saw the servant who was guarding the door stunned at the door and refused to welcome him in, he suddenly became angry and doubled his voice. He shouted: "You dog slave seems to have the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard. How dare you

If you stop me, you don't want to live anymore."

When the eldest grandson shouted like this, the servant at the door didn't know what to do, and his scalp felt numb.

The momentum created by the eldest grandson at the door finally alerted the old housekeeper in the house. The old housekeeper came to the house and saw that it was the young master standing at the door. He hurriedly greeted him, "Master, you are finally willing to go home."

The old housekeeper has been in the eldest grandson's family for half his life. He has watched his eldest grandson grow up and has feelings for him for a long time. Seeing that his eldest grandson finally came back, he was very excited.

"Uncle Sun, the eldest grandson is back." When the eldest grandson saw the old steward coming out, he immediately put away his arrogance, bowed slightly to the steward, and gave a junior salute.

The old housekeeper has a very high status in the house. Although he is only a servant of the Changsun House, no one in the house dares to disrespect the old housekeeper. Even Mrs. Hua, who is usually arrogant, does not dare to make things difficult for the old housekeeper, just because the head of the house and the old housekeeper are like brothers.

The old housekeeper hurriedly supported his eldest grandson and said happily: "Okay, okay, just come back. Come on, go into the house and say, the master of the house will be extremely happy to see you."

After that, the old housekeeper welcomed the eldest grandson into the house, leaving the servant who had lost his soul behind.

The only one who stayed behind was Chu Li. Changsun's sudden attack not only shocked the servant at the gate, but also frightened Chu Li who was behind him.

Chu Li had never seen the young master discipline his servants like this. In the past, the young master paid great attention to his own cultivation, but he had never behaved like this before. Moreover, the young master had been more gentle towards him in the past few days. He did not expect that he would behave like this just now.

The eldest grandson followed steward Sun into the mansion. When the eldest grandson made such a fuss in front of the mansion, everyone in the mansion knew that young master eldest grandson was back, and they all gathered in the hall.

Sitting in the hall was an old man who was not angry and proud. Although his hair was gray, his body was still upright.

At this time, he looked at the eldest grandson who walked into the hall. Although the old man looked serious, the concern and joy in his eyes had been revealed inadvertently.

This person is Changsun Wentian, Changsun's grandfather.

Sitting next to Changsun Wentian is Mrs. Hua, wearing a purple robe with a silver-white fox velvet around her neck, which complements the whiteness of her thin neck. Her black hair is combed into a bun on the back of her head, highlighting the slenderness of her face.

There is a trace of femininity between the delicate brows.

Mrs. Hua was sitting high up with a calm expression on her face, but when she saw her eldest grandson, her eldest grandson could still see the vague boredom in her eyes.

After entering the hall, the eldest grandson threw himself on the eldest grandson Wentian's lap without saluting, crying loudly, "Grandpa, I finally see you again, my grandson is finally back, woo woo..."

This move of the eldest grandson shocked everyone present. The eldest grandson Wentian valued etiquette cultivation the most. Everyone in the eldest grandson's mansion eldest grandson Wentian doted on his eldest grandson. Everyone knew that when the eldest grandson was born, the eldest grandson Wentian was very happy and gave him this first child.

The grandson was named Changsun, which shows how much Changsun Wentian dotes on his eldest grandson. But even if the eldest grandson sees Changsun Wentian every day, he must first bow politely. The behavior of Changsun today has never been seen in the house.

This behavior of the eldest grandson really made the eldest grandson Wentian frown. Just when he was about to get angry, he lowered his head and saw a pair of tearful eyes. Thinking that the child had suffered a lot in the past three months, he couldn't bear it in his heart, and his tone softened, "Humph.

, you still know how to go home."

"How could my grandson forget about home? Grandpa, you don't know how much hardship your grandson has endured and how much injustice he has suffered these past three months. He almost couldn't come back and couldn't see grandpa anymore. Wow..." Kneeling before grandpa

The eldest grandson in front of me cried so sadly that his clothes were wet with big tears.

Looking at the tattered clothes on the eldest grandson's body, he knew that the eldest grandson must have suffered a lot during the more than three months he was away from home. His heart suddenly became softer and he couldn't bear to punish him. "Okay, go wash up and change into clean clothes."

Come on, Butler Sun, tell the kitchen to cook a good meal tonight."

Tonight, due to the return of the eldest grandson, the eldest grandson's mansion became busy again. Everyone had their own thoughts and plans. However, most of them were just waiting to watch the excitement.

In the evening, there was a banquet to welcome the eldest grandson. Several elders in the clan did not attend to show their attitude, but those present seemed very uncomfortable. When the position of the eldest grandson's heir was shaken, people did not know what to do.

How to behave.

The atmosphere seemed a bit awkward, with only the eldest grandson complaining as if no one else was around. Everyone at the banquet was having their own thoughts, and it was quite lively.

At night, the eldest grandson returned to his room, thinking about Mrs. Hua's performance and thinking about how to deal with it next.

Chu Li walked into the room carrying the foot-washing water for her eldest grandson. She looked in a daze and looked at her eldest grandson sitting at the table thinking about something. He hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't help but say, "Master, what are you doing today..."

Chu Li's words came to her lips but she didn't know how to say them, for fear of offending her eldest grandson.

Changsun looked at Chu Li's performance and smiled, "Why, did Chu Li's performance this morning make Chu Li uncomfortable?"

"Hmm...a bit like..."

"like what?"

"Like...like, the evil young man in the city." After finishing speaking, Chu Li lowered her head and did not dare to look at her eldest grandson.

"Oh, really, that means I performed pretty well today." Changsun showed a satisfied expression.

"Perform?" Chu Li raised her head and looked at Changsun and asked in confusion.

"Coming back this time is both a helpless and risky move. Our coming back at this critical moment will undoubtedly disrupt Mrs. Hua's plan. If Grandpa can see the hope of supporting me to become the heir at this time, he will support me.

Heir, I'm afraid Mrs. Hua will do something terrible," said the eldest grandson.

After hearing this, Chu Li was thoughtful, thinking of the terrible things Zhangsun said, and said tentatively: "Young Master, are you saying that Mrs. Hua will do something to you, Young Master?"

The eldest grandson shook his head, "I'm afraid it won't be that simple. For Mrs. Hua, the biggest obstacle to her son becoming the heir is grandpa, not me. If grandpa is gone, I won't pose much of a threat to her. I'm afraid she will

Start early.”

After Chu Li heard this, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She covered her mouth, which was open in shock, with her hands.

Chu Li's shock is not unreasonable. In Changsun Mansion, no, in the entire Lishan City, Changsun Wentian's dominance has been unshakable for more than thirty years. In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is in vain, Mrs. Hua

Although she was also a warrior and was considered very powerful in Lishan City, she could only be considered a weak woman to Changsun Wentian. Chu Li didn't understand how Mrs. Hua had such courage.

But the eldest grandson's worries are justified. This time, his grandfather's health is much worse than before. Recalling the family meeting more than three months ago, the eldest grandson can feel that the patience of Mrs. Hua and others will soon be exhausted.

, Mrs. Hua, who is obsessed with profit, may really do what her grandson thinks.

More than three months ago, the elder of the clan requested to hold a clan meeting, and the eldest grandson was also present, but he never thought that an unexpected person would appear at the clan meeting, Nangong Ao.

More than thirty years ago, Changsun Wentian led the Skywalkers, the mercenary group he founded, to overcome all obstacles and finally took over the rule of Lishan City and established the dominance of the Changsun family. Nangong Ao was the deputy of the Skywalkers.

He is also the elder brother of Mrs. Hua.

It stands to reason that outsiders like Nangong Ao should not appear in the clan meeting of the Changsun family. Nangong Ao's appearance must have the tacit approval of the clan elders. This is how the clan elders express their challenge to Changsun Wentian's rights.

.

It was the appearance of Nangong Ao that changed the outcome of that clan meeting. Nangong Ao represented Skywalker's wishes and demanded that the status of the eldest grandson's heir be abolished. The eldest grandson Wentian also changed his toughness this time and dismissed the meeting without expressing his attitude.

It was precisely because of this that the eldest grandson ran away from home after having a big quarrel with the eldest grandson Wentian.

Now that the eldest grandson wants to come, the grandfather's behavior at that time was also out of helplessness. This is the greatest protection for the eldest grandson.

It took a long time for Chu Li to recover from the shock and said: "That's why the young master behaved like that. He deliberately wanted to disappoint the young master and to make Mrs. Hua relax her vigilance. But...young master, wouldn't you be handing over the eldest son's family by doing this?"

Gave it to them."
