What Shuo Zhizhou said was not surprising to Shen Lian at all, but it was a pity that he was born under the red flag and grew up in New China.
There may be some filial piety, but not even half of loyalty.
He smiled casually at Shuo Zhizhou but said nothing.
This so-called Tao is different, they do not work together, and they are too lazy to talk about it.
It was already past noon when Shuo Zhizhou called someone to take Meng Han back to the Yamen of the state government.
Meng Han actually woke up halfway, but he couldn't bear the humiliation and the looks others were looking at him, so he had to pretend to be fainted until the end.
At the same time, people inside and outside the inn who were secretly observing had to make a new judgment about Shen Lian.
After all, Meng Han's reputation in the world is not unworthy. Although he is not as good as Yang Ying, the best head catcher in the world who also works for the imperial court, he is not an ordinary person.
Shen Lianxiu had a small test, and he felt happy and didn't bother to care about the trivial matters in the inn, so he just went out.
Qingzhou's capital city is neither big nor small. It's difficult to see one or two of them.
Shen Lian walks in the mortal world without distracting thoughts. In the eyes of outsiders, his thoughts are naturally absent. However, despite the many obstacles in the street, despite the traffic of cars and horses, Shen Lian was not hit, tripped, or pushed.
"Is it Shen Lian?"
This voice was really unfamiliar. He might have called Shen Lian by name, so he thought he was a familiar person.
Shen Lian turned around and saw a middle-aged man with a rich body looking at him.
Shen Lian thought for a moment and then remembered that this person was Xu Hong, his eldest aunt's brother, and he was also a relative.
It's just that Mrs. Xu has never liked him, so Xu Hong only met Shen Lian a few times when he was young.
It stands to reason that Xu Hong should not recognize Shen Lian, unless the other party has already paid attention to him.
Of course, Shen Lian quickly overturned this guess. Next to Xu Hong was a young maid in green clothes. If Shen Lian did not admit his mistake, she was someone from the yard of his uncle Shen Qingshi.
He didn't know the specific name, but he knew he had seen it before.
Xu Hong smiled and said: "I heard that your inn is opening today, why do you still have time to hang out?"
Shen Lian turned slightly sideways. He was neither close nor indifferent, and said: "Why worry about trivial matters? I have never heard that Uncle Xu will take care of everything because he has opened a new pawn shop."
"Haha, you kid, you are much more interesting than a few years ago. At that time, you would ignore everyone you met. It's a rare chance to see you, why not come to my house and sit down." Xu Hong learned from the maid that this handsome young man on the street is Shen Shen. Practicing, something moved in my heart.
It turned out that the Wutong Shen who suffered last time suffered a loss because of the Shen family. He asked his sister Xu today and found out that except Shen Lian, there was something fishy, and no one else had anything to do with it.
Xu Hong had already heard about the opening of Shen Lian's Inn before, but he just sent someone to deliver gifts. After all, he was an elder, so there was no need to go there in person for such a trivial matter.
Besides, compared to the Shen family's property, an inn, even a century-old one, is really nothing. Even Shen Qingshan doesn't think it's a big deal.
After he left the Shen family, he was going to test it with Shen Lian another day. It happened that the little maid had also received Xu's order and went out to the Shen family store to get some rouge newly introduced from the Beijing Yanshui Restaurant. Xu Hong was moved in his heart and was ready to bring him Click back and comfort your wife.
Xu Hong grew up in Qingzhou. He didn't go out with so much ostentation. He just wandered on the street and flirted with this pretty little maid.
The little maid was not born in a family, but she was quite ambitious. She was not willing to cater to him, but she didn't know what to do, so she happened to catch a glimpse of Shen Lian.
Speaking of Shen Lian, she is truly the dream lover of any woman under the age of 20 in the Shen family, excluding Shen Ruoxi. After all, Shen Lian is as light as a fairy and has a handsome appearance.
Such a young gentleman makes people happy to see him.
Even the little maid often jokes with other sisters about Shen Lian, hoping that one day she can fly on a branch.
Besides, with Shen Lian here, Xu Hong would not be too presumptuous.
Shen Lian nodded slightly to the maid. This had been his habit since modern times. He had to say hello when he met someone he knew. After all, he didn't have any class distinction in his heart.
Just this slight nod made the little maid very excited, thinking that the young master still remembered me. Unexpectedly, they had only met once, and it was just a glance in the crowd that Shen Lian remembered me.
I couldn't help but feel happy and excited at the same time.
If I go back and tell my sisters about this, I will be envied to death.
In this way, Xu Hong's previous teasing was nothing to her.
Shen Lian didn't have the same mental understanding as him, so of course he didn't know what his maid was thinking. If the maid knew that Shen Lian had photographic memory, she probably wouldn't be so happy.
Shen Lian couldn't control the little girl's thoughts, but he felt a very uncomfortable aura from Xu Hong, which made him feel strange.
He said: "You and I have nothing to do. It doesn't hurt to go and sit at Uncle Xu's house."
He finally remembered that the aura on Xu Hong's body seemed to be related to the monster in Shen Ruoxi's dream last time.
"Then after I buy the rouge, we will go back. You must know that although your Shen family is richer than our Xu family, it takes three generations to know how to eat and wear. The food of our old Xu family is not comparable to that of your Shen family."
Xu Hong couldn't help but feel proud.
At the same time, he invited Shen Lian, but he remembered that Mrs. Xu had said that no one from the Shen family had come back these days except Shen Lian. Shen Ruoxi was said to have called Shen Lian's name the night she recovered from her illness.
When others heard it, they just thought it was a child thinking about it day by day and dreaming about it at night.
But Xu Hong and Xu knew that Shen Ruoxi was ill because of the evil god, and most of the dreams she had were not ordinary dreams. There must be something fishy about Shen Ruoxi calling Shen Lian's name.
Originally, Shen Lian's Inn was opening today, and Xu Hong didn't want to go find him for the time being. Unexpectedly, he met him on the street. Wasn't it fate
Don't you know that Xu Hong wants to know from Shen Lian who hurt the Wutong Shen, and Shen Lian even wants to know the origin of the evil spirit in Shen Ruoxi's dream.
After all, even though Shen Lian had the God-Destroying Sword Sutra, he still had no clue as to how to cultivate Taoism.
The Shenzu Sutra only allows him to cultivate his inner energy, which is somewhat beyond the physical strength of ordinary people, but it is not the fundamental method to achieve immortality.
Even if this skill is related to the immortal family in Qingxuan Mountain according to Ling Chongxiao's story, its essence is still a Jianghu skill.
There are so many people in the Ling Chongxiao Sect, but no one has ever heard of anyone relying on this to live forever.
Cultivation has its beginnings and ends. Whether it is the "True Interpretation of the Supreme Purity Lingbao Naturally Locking the Mind and Concentrating the Mind" or the "God-Destroying Sword Sutra", Shen Lian lacks an essential understanding. Ling Chongxiao is even more unable to answer these questions, or may not be willing to answer them. Clear up doubts.
The evil spirits can sneak into people's dreams and cast evil spells, so there is no way to learn more about spiritual practice.
Since Shen Lian had caught the slightest trace from Xu Hong, of course he would not miss this opportunity.
The two of them hit it off by accident.
It's a pity that after the little maid bought the rouge and gouache, she had to go back to the Shen family, and she couldn't bear to leave.
Shen Lian didn't understand the charm, but he failed to live up to the girl's feelings and followed Xu Hong to the Xu family.
