Return to Chapter 17: The Ancient House of Su Mansion
"Brother Yan, how is Meiyi's craftsmanship? Not bad," Li Meiyi asked.
Yan Zhuo muttered while chewing the beef in his mouth: "It's delicious. Everything Meiyi Mei makes is delicious."
"Disgusting!" Li Meiyi lightly hammered Yan Zhuo's shoulder.
Yan Zhuo didn't care about that much. He looked at the food stuffed in his mouth and devoured it like a hungry wolf. He was so scared when he saw the food. This was the scene.
It was as if there was something waiting for him to do, and he looked very anxious.
When Li Meiyi saw this, she smiled, but her smile had some unspeakable meaning. Then she turned her head and reached for an untouched glass of wine in the corner of the black gold wooden dining table.
, poured a glass slowly and pushed it in front of Yan Zhuo: "Brother Yan, please slow down, don't choke, come and drink some wine, this is a good wine that Meiyi specially ordered to buy from Raoxiang City.
"
Without saying a word, Yan Zhuo picked up the glass of wine with one hand, drank it hard, burped, shouted "nice", and then continued to eat.
But what Yan Zhuo didn't know was that the moment he drank the glass of wine, Li Meiyi suddenly sneered at the corner of her mouth for some unknown reason, and her eyes became a little fierce, but disappeared in an instant.
It has returned to its original appearance.
Li Meiyi reached out to pick up the glass of wine and carefully poured another glass for Yan Zhuo: "Brother Yan, if it's delicious, eat more. Meiyi will go back first to wash up and change into clean clothes."
When Yan Zhuo heard this, he didn't say anything, but he quickly waved his hand to Li Meiyi, which probably meant, go ahead! After taking a shower, he waited for me on the bed.
Li Meiyi smiled and nodded, but the moment she turned around, she immediately became indifferent. After glancing at Yan Zhuo who was still devouring her food, she walked out of the dining room.
Then she walked all the way to an inconspicuous room in the corner of the backyard. After closing the door, a gentle voice asked, "Mei Yi, how are you?"
Just look, there is a person hidden in the room, a very beautiful woman. She is wearing a thin purple gown. The wind gently blows her gown through the window, and the silver light shines on her body, making her entire body look more beautiful.
She was as white as jade, and she smiled at Li Meiyi who had just walked in. The fragrance exuding from her body seemed to be more gentle.
Seeing this person, Li Meiyi was not surprised. Instead, she stepped forward and nodded: "Sister Ji, don't worry, I have seen Yan Zhuo drink a whole glass with my own eyes."
"Yes!" The woman who was called Sister Ji smiled and nodded: "That's good, then there will be no chance of Yan Zhuo surviving."
Li Meiyi took Sister Ji's hands and said, "Well! Sister Ji, thank you for helping me get revenge."
Sister Ji's voice was gentle and fragrant: "Sister Meiyi, don't be polite. Three years ago, I was seriously injured and accidentally broke into this world. If you hadn't saved me, maybe I would have died long ago. You are my savior.
, Besides, if you call me sister, then I am not your sister. If I don’t help you, who will help you?”
Li Meiyi suddenly thought of something, tears instantly welled up in her eyes, and she looked like she was about to cry, "But, although that bastard doesn't...there is no such thing as me, but Sister Ji's bastard, he..."
Sister Ji stroked Li Meiyi's cheek and comforted her: "Meiyi, don't think too much. Just kill him with your own hands later and you will understand everything. Didn't you say you wanted to take revenge yourself? Don't cry."
"Yeah!" Li Meiyi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Then I'll go pack up and change my clothes. The one who deserves to be killed has almost fallen down."
...
Cangyuan City.
Donglu Street.
Looking at dusk, Donglu Street will be very lively. Many foreign travelers and knowledgeable scholars will come here. This is because there is a large and ancient mansion at the end of Donglu Street.
Su Mansion.
It is said that the mansion has a history of 800 years and is extremely valuable.
However, travelers who come here can only watch from a distance of thirty feet and are not allowed to go forward, because the Su Mansion is a private place and is still inhabited by people.
But at this time, there was a person standing under the plaque of Nasu Mansion, a man in a blue shirt. He looked good-looking, but his appearance was lazy.
If this person wasn't Xiao Chunqiu, who could he be?
Ever since Xiao Chunqiu left the long street that had a somewhat familiar smell, he once again used the "Qi-seeking Technique" to find the Qi of the Purple Smoke Sword.
So, following the aura of the Purple Smoke Sword, I came here.
But he did not fall directly into the mansion, but politely walked through the main entrance.
Xiao Chunqiu glanced at the word 'Su Mansion' on the time-mottled plaque on the door, and did not expect that this family would still live here after so long.
Then, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.
After waiting for a while, an old man wearing a simple gown who looked like a housekeeper opened the door and came out. He looked Xiao Chunqiu up and down and asked, "Are you..."
Xiao Chunqiu did not answer, but took out a white sword sheath on his back, handed it to the old man who looked like a housekeeper, and said calmly: "You don't need to ask me who I am, you just need to use this sword."
Just leave the sheath to the person in charge of this house."
This white scabbard is naturally the scabbard of the Purple Smoke Sword. Xiao Lingchen forced it on Xiao Chunqiu during the chase before he left Yuluo Villa. He said that he was afraid that others would misunderstand him as a liar. Xiao Chunqiu rolled his eyes at that time.
, said in a straight tone: "You think I will be like you!"
The old man who looked like a butler glanced at the exquisite scabbard handed over to him. Although he did not understand what the young man in front of him meant by this, the person who could pass the guard outside the mansion must have been given permission by the master and should be an honored guest.
He didn't dare to smile carelessly, showing his big yellow teeth: "My name is Huang Jiuping, everyone calls me Uncle Ping. I am the steward of Su Mansion. Come in with me first."
Xiao Chunqiu did not refuse and slowly followed the housekeeper who called himself Huang Jiuping into the Su Mansion.
The Su Mansion is also a mansion with seven entrances and seven exits. Although it is not one-tenth as big as Yuluo Villa, the corridors in the mansion are full of twists and turns and extend in all directions.
If there is no one to take it with you, you may get lost soon.
The two of them walked leisurely through the endless corridors and arrived at the main hall of Su Mansion.
As soon as he came in, Xiao Chunqiu was not polite and sat on the front seat. The old butler Huang Jiuping didn't say anything when he saw him. The person who could sit in that position must have an extraordinary status.
The housekeeper Huang Jiuping waved over a servant and told her to make a pot of good tea to entertain the distinguished guests. Then he looked at Xiao Chunqiu, who was sitting at the top of the table, and said with a smile: "You sit here for a while, I will be there soon."
Go and pass this scabbard to the master."
"Then please hurry up. I'll have something to do later." Xiao Chunqiu replied calmly.
"Okay." Butler Huang Jiuping nodded, turned around and was about to leave, but seemed to think of something again, turned around and asked, "I don't know, little brother, what do you call me?"
