The 229th chapter is envious
At noon the next day, Jiang Chu took Hua Lan out. Master Chen did not go with him because he was still a little sleepy after not sleeping well last night. Qin Ziye brought his own servant.
Last night, Hu Yingyue called Jiang Chu into the room as a matter of course and asked her in a low voice about Qin Ziye.
Of course, Jiang Chu said very seriously that this was just someone he had helped, and at most he could only be regarded as a friend, nothing else.
Seeing that Hu Yingyue still didn't believe it, she said helplessly that this was the second time the two met, and it had been several months since the last time. If there was anything, why would they have waited so long.
After such an explanation, Hu Yingyue sighed with disappointment and relief.
"It turns out that's not the case... Well, Mr. Qin has a good appearance and a good upbringing. He is a child raised by a polite family. If there is something, it doesn't matter... But his family background is indeed not very suitable. It's fine if he doesn't have it. You...
If your temperament is not gentle enough, my mother is afraid that you will be offended if you marry someone high."
Hu Yingyue didn't think that her daughter should not have contact with men, because Jiang Chu was no longer a child. She had always had her own ideas. Some things were better blocked than cleared, and she couldn't control such things.
However, although Hu Yingyue would not take care of it openly, she would secretly evaluate the man's situation. If it was suitable, she would turn a blind eye. If it was not suitable, she would definitely use some means to drive him away.
For example, let Jiang Chu's father beat people up and scare them away.
Qin Ziye was still very good in Hu Yingyue's opinion, but the five medicinal materials brought by Master Chen yesterday still scared her, and she also knew the gap between the two families.
Let alone whether they can afford such a family, even if they can, she doesn't worry about her daughter marrying and watching others look at her.
Sometimes, as a human being, you still have to know something.
After knowing that there was no chance of the two of them, Hu Yingyue stopped paying attention. Jiang Chu only took Hua Lan out and she didn't say anything else.
"I came here presumptuously. I hope it won't cause any trouble to Miss Jiang."
Qin Ziye apologized first after going out.
The group of them went out on foot. Jiang's house was in a good location. Just around the corner from the alley was a very famous restaurant, which was enough to entertain Qin Ziye.
"Young Master Qin, you don't have to be so polite. We are already acquaintances. We can just call each other by our first names. What do you think?" Jiang Chu asked.
"Okay, Jiang Chu."
They didn't talk about anything when they were outside. It wasn't until they entered the private room of the restaurant that Jiang Chu said, "You must have something important to do when you come to me, but it doesn't matter."
Qin Ziye was surprised by Jiang Chu's straightforwardness, but this made him relax.
"There is something I need to confess to you first." Qin Ziye took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then said: "My father... investigated you."
Jiang Chu's expression didn't even change after hearing this, "Oh, this is normal."
Qin Ziye was stunned instead, "Don't you feel surprised or angry?"
"It's just human common sense. If I were Mr. Qin, I would do the same thing." Jiang Chu smiled.
His sudden appearance not only saved Qin Ziya, but also reminded him of Qin Zixue's problems. Mr. Qin didn't show any abnormality at the time, but he would definitely think she was a little weird afterwards.
It is perfectly normal to send people to investigate her origins and speculate on her intentions.
Moreover, the five medicinal materials listed by Jiang Chu are not ordinary things. Alchemist Chen must know that the elixir that uses these medicinal materials will not be ordinary things, and the elixir recipe is also extraordinary.
It is natural to be curious about Jiang Chu and want to find out more.
"It's just that the results of the investigation surprised us all. The girl turned out to be not an alchemist, but a martial arts master first and a hexagram master later." Qin Ziye looked at Jiang Chu with doubts in his eyes.
No matter how you look at it, Jiang Chu is a very powerful alchemist. After all, he wants to save himself and needs medicinal materials.
But this result is really unexpected.
Jiang Chu smiled and said nothing.
There's no way to explain this, so let's not explain it at all and let them think about it themselves.
"Yesterday, Jiang Chu, when you didn't come back, Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang asked me some questions. Only then did I know that even they didn't know some of your secrets." Qin Ziye smiled, with a hint of cunning in his eyes,
"But don't worry, I just brushed it off and they didn't notice anything was wrong."
really!
Jiang Chu knew that something would be revealed during their conversation yesterday.
But Qin Ziyi was really smart and didn't reveal himself outright.
"Thank you very much."
Jiang Chu said words of thanks and poured tea for Qin Ziye himself without stopping.
Qin Ziye took it with both hands, "I have no intention of finding out your secrets. In fact, everyone has some secrets that their parents don't know, and I am the same. I actually came to you because of your hexagram skills."
"You want to divine?" Jiang Chu raised his eyebrows.
"Well, according to the information my father found, Jiang Chu, your hexagrams are extremely effective. Your stories are already circulating in Yuxiao City. However, the hexagrams are declining, and you are not convincing enough in terms of age. This is why
There are very few people who come to ask for divination."
Qin Ziye saw everything clearly.
If Jiang Chu was not in his teens now, but in his sixties, there would definitely be a lot of people coming to ask for hexagrams.
However, for the people of Yuxiaocheng, in addition to these two points, there is another point that is somewhat dissuasive.
That is, there are rumors that Jiang Chu has been stimulated and is no longer normal.
How can an abnormal person predict divination? It's just that the words of madness have come true.
But there’s no need to mention this one.
"I'm still studying. It won't be helpful for me to have too many people come to my door. It's good like this now." Jiang Chu said casually.
After a trip to Dingdang Forest, not to mention other things, the small treasury in my hand became more abundant.
Since there is no shortage of money, there is no need to worry. It would be better if there are fewer people, otherwise it will be very annoying.
Qin Ziye was drinking tea from a teacup, and when he heard Jiang Chu's words, he couldn't help but look at her.
Jiang Chu's brows and eyes were all indifferent, and he didn't seem to be bothered by foreign affairs at all.
The Qin family is far away in Jiaoye City, and they found out about Jiang Chu's bad reputation just by asking around. How could she not know about it if she was involved in it?
Although she didn't mention it, she would definitely know what the item she missed was. If an ordinary girl heard this, wouldn't she be disappointed, sad or angry?
But she didn't take it to heart at all.
This is really unmoved by external affairs.
Qin Ziye couldn't help but feel envious.
Everyone said that the Qin family was good and proud, and he was the only male in the family, a status that many people could not envy.
But only when you are in it do you know what kind of pressure you will be under.
The family's ardent expectations and the attention of the outside world made him breathless.
