"This is your family's grand ceremony. I am an outsider, so how can I attend?" Murong shook his head and refused, "It was a great honor to be invited as a guest, how can I be so ignorant? What about the size?"
"Young Master Rong is too polite." Chen Haozhang smiled amiably. "Since you are an honored guest of our family, you can naturally be invited to such a grand ceremony. Is it possible that Young Master Rong doesn't look down on us?"
If this Rong Qing in front of him agreed at once, maybe he would be a little suspicious, but now it's Rong Qing who obviously knows it's not right and is unwilling to agree, which makes him feel much more at ease. It was also because of this that he wanted to invite Rong Qing even more, because he could see that Rong Qing really wanted to see it.
"This—" Murong's face was still filled with hesitation, but she finally nodded, "Well, since Master Chen has said so, it would be rude if I continue to refuse."
"That's really great." Chen Haozhang laughed, "We have a few more days to go to our home, but in the past few days, Young Master Rong can still have a good time in our city. Although It's not as good as those big cities, but if it has a different flavor."
"I can't wait to have a taste of it when I hear Master Chen say this." Murong said with a smile, "I think the scenery here will definitely not disappoint me."
"Of course." Chen Haozhang said proudly, "By the way, let Yaoyao and the three brothers and sisters go with you this time! They can also enjoy the friendship of the landlord."
"Okay! Okay!" Chen Xiangxiang said excitedly, "Young Master Rong, I will take you out every day. I know all the fun places we have here, and it will definitely make you reluctant."
"Yeah!" Chen Wenyao raised her head and glanced shyly at Murong Qingyan, "Is there any place you want to go to, Young Master Rong, we can take you there first."
"I don't have any particular place I want to go." Murong smiled and shook his head, "It's the first time I've left the family, so it's up to Young Master Chen and Miss Chen to decide!"
"Okay." After Chen Wenyao nodded, she said with a smile, "Young Master Rong, in fact, we are already so familiar with each other, so we just called them by name. It's too unfamiliar to call you young lady."
"Since Miss Chen has said so, then I'll be more respectful than obey." Murong smiled and nodded, "In these few days, I will trouble you Yaoyao."
Hearing her name shouted from her sweetheart, Chen Wenyao couldn't help but smile sweetly.
Chen Wenyao's thoughts were clearly seen by those who put it on the table. Only Murong Qingyan, one of the parties involved, was still confused. Although she is now pretending to be a man, she has never thought that she will be favored by another woman.
This reception feast can be described as a joy for the guests and hosts. Although Chen Haozhang and others were not very happy after hearing that Murong Qingyan had made a marriage contract. Still, the results were good.
After returning to the guest house, Murong's face was full of smiles, "Rotary wing, I'll tell you! As long as we show our family background, the Chen family will definitely treat us as nobles from some big family. Now we However, there is already a reason to enter the Chen family in a high-sounding manner."
"They did promise to take us to Chen's house to attend that ceremony." There was no expression on the rotor's face, "However, I think they should be more than just making a good deal with you."
"What?" After hearing Rotor's words, Murong was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean? Is there something else I overlooked?"
"Miss, don't you see it?" Rotor glanced at Murong's face, "Then Chen Wenyao has a crush on you. The rest of the Chen family are also happy to see it happen."
"Pfft—" Murong, who was drinking water at first, poured out all the water in his mouth after hearing Rotor's words, "Rotor, stop joking, this kind of joke is not funny at all."
During the speech, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Murong's face, and when she saw that the rotor showed no signs of joking at all, the corner of her mouth couldn't help twitching, "No way!"
She had never thought about such a thing, but after hearing such words, she couldn't help but think back to Chen Wenyao's performance when she just received the wind banquet, and she had to admit that it was indeed the case.
However, she quickly packed up her mood, "Even if Chen Wenyao really likes me, it doesn't have much to do with it. Just now, I already said that I have a marriage contract. .Then if Chen Wenyao is smart, he knows that he can't put his mind on me anymore."
After hearing Murong Qingyan's words, Zhuoyi did not continue to talk about this matter, but changed the subject, "Then, what are you going to do next?"
"Go to the home of the Chen family first." A faint light flashed in Murong's face, "My mother should be from the Chen family, and, if I am not mistaken, the last saint of the Chen family is my mother. Dear. The disappearance of my parents, even if it is not the Chen family's fault, has nothing to do with the Chen family."
"This time, I'm going to investigate carefully to see if I can find any traces of my parents. By the way, is there any news from Chu Kui's side?"
"No," Rotor shook his head, "they are still investigating, and there is no clear news. If there is any news, she will send it."
"Yeah." Murong nodded, thinking for a while, then said, "By the way, pass the news to Chukui, and see if you can find out what happened to my parents back then?"
"My subordinates know."
On the other hand, after finishing dinner, Chen Haozhang also let his sons and daughters follow him into the study, and of course, his wife Luoya also walked in together. However, the other sons and daughters went back to their own rooms.
Everyone else probably knew what it was for. Even if Luoya hadn't heard of it before, she could still see a thing or two from the reception.
Only Chen Xiangxiang, until now, still knew what was going on, he scratched his hair, looked at the others in confusion, and couldn't help but said, "Dad, why did you call us here? thing?"
Chen Haozhang didn't answer Chen Xiangxiang's question. His face wasn't pretty, but it wasn't ugly either.
"Master, did you call us here because of Young Master Rong?" Luo Ya is Chen Haozhang's wife after all, and she still knows her husband very well.
"Yes, it's because of that Rong Qing." Chen Haozhang nodded, "What do you think about that Rong Qing?"
Neither Chen Xiangjie nor Chen Wenyao said anything, and Chen Xiangxiang didn't know what to say, so he didn't say anything.
After a long time, Luo Ya finally said, "According to my opinion, this Rong Qing is not an ordinary person. He is generous, and his gestures are full of extravagance. It can be seen that the family behind him is not simple."
"That's right." Chen Haozhang nodded, "If an ordinary person got a high-grade spiritual stone, he would definitely hide it. But he generously gave it to us as a gift, and looking at his appearance, It doesn't seem to be very important. Such a person cannot be cultivated by an ordinary family, and behind him is a strong man in the Mahayana period as his guard. So, I guess, he is likely to come from that place. ."
"What?" After hearing Chen Haozhang's guess, Luoya looked surprised, but after thinking about it, she felt that things didn't seem so unacceptable, she turned her head, looked at Chen Xiangjie and the others, and couldn't help sighing, "If you say that, you children are quite lucky, since you have met such a person, and you have also received help from the other party."
"Father, did you call us all here just to tell us to get along well with that Rong Qing?" Chen Xiangxiang said with a smile, "Actually, even if you don't tell me, I will definitely get along with him. He is my savior!"
Looking at his second son, who has always been straightforward, Chen Haozhang smiled and shook his head, "I called you here today, not for this matter."
When talking, Chen Haozhang turned his head and looked at Chen Wenyao, "Yaoyao, what do you think about the things I mentioned to you before?"
"Father, daughter, daughter—" Chen Wenyao was awkward, but she didn't know how to answer.
In fact, she still likes Rong Qing very much in her heart. But now in front of so many people, even though this is her own family, there are some things she can't say.
"Yaoyao, you like that Rong Qing, don't you?" Seeing Chen Wenyao's thoughts, Luo Ya's expression became serious, "I felt strange when I was at the dinner table. Just tell me Me, do you have such a mind?"
"Yes, I do like brother Rong Qing very much." Chen Wenyao, who was still very shy, but after hearing Luoya's words, said solemnly, "I want to marry him."
Hearing Chen Wenyao's words, Luo Ya's face suddenly turned black, "Yaoyao, do you know what you are talking about? When you were just at the reception, didn't you already hear that Rong Qing said that? Is it? His family has already made a marriage contract for him, and you still say you want to marry him, do you want to be a concubine?"
For this daughter of hers, Luo Ya felt that she was really spoiled, and she had unexpected thoughts about a person who already had a marriage contract.
"Mother, what are you talking about?" Hearing Luoya's words, Chen Wenyao seemed very unhappy, "Why should I be a concubine! As long as brother Rong Qing likes me and is willing to marry me, that's fine, right? Don't you want me to marry brother Rong Qing? Although I don't know who brother Rong Qing is, I can probably guess that he is from that place. Marrying him would not be my best home. ?"
If it was said that she only had one point of thought for Rong Qing, then when she knew that Rong Qing came from that place, that one point of thought had already turned into a full point.
Seeing Chen Wenyao's insistence, Luoya frowned, disapproving in her heart. However, she also knew that in this matter, she did not have the leeway to decide.
"Well." Instead, Chen Haozhang seemed very satisfied after hearing Chen Wenyao's words, "Since Yaoyao has said so, then we should help her. Moreover, if Yaoyao really gets married Rong Qing, that is also a good thing for us.”
After hearing Chen Haozhang's words, Luoya was very disappointed. Although she was already mentally prepared, she was still unhappy. She didn't want her daughter to be entangled with someone who already had a marriage contract, but the husband was in charge of the family. Although her husband treated her well, she still had no right to make a decision on such a major matter.
"Thank you Dad!" Chen Wenyao was very happy, she stepped forward, took Chen Haozhang's hand directly, and said happily, "Dad, I will definitely win the heart of brother Rong Qing."
"Father believes in you." Chen Haozhang smiled and nodded, "My daughter is so beautiful, and she is not weak in terms of cultivation. Naturally, she is not comparable to others."
Hearing this, Chen Wenyao smiled even more happily.
Although Chen Xiangjie did not agree with such a decision, he did not express any objection. And Chen Xiangxiang will naturally not object, as long as his sister is happy, then he will not object to anything.
In the next few days, the three brothers and sisters Chen Xiangjie showed their faces with Murong and went to play in the city.
Since it was a game, Murong Qingyan naturally did not continue to think about those annoying things, but relaxed and went to play. I have to say, as the Chen family said, although the city is small, the scenery is quite good. She was having fun too.
There was only one thing that made her feel a little uncomfortable, and that was the idea that the rest of the Chen family would send her and Chen Wenyao together, which seemed very strong. In the past few days, the Chen family members pushed Chen Wenyao to her side intentionally or unintentionally.
She was very unhappy about this, not to mention that she was a woman. Even if she was really a man, she wouldn't like someone like Chen Wenyao.
Chen Wenyao knew that she had a marriage contract, but she had no scruples at all. To be honest, doing this is really disgusting. Isn't this determined to be a junior
Of course, she wouldn't say these words in front of the Chen family. After all, she still needs someone from the Chen family to take her there. For this, she has already paid a high-grade spirit stone. If she had a falling out with the Chen family at this time, then she would suffer too much.
Murong Qingyan and the three brothers and sisters of the Chen family stopped in a teahouse after a day of sightseeing.
"Brother Rong, are you having a good time these past few days?" Chen Xiangjie said with a smile after pouring a cup of tea for Murong Dianyan, "We are going to go to our house in two days, if you have any other ideas. If you want to go, just say it, and we'll go together."
Murong took the tea that Chen Xiangjie handed over with a smile, and shook his head with a smile, "Brother Xiangjie, you're welcome, we've almost played all over the city in the past few days. I'm already very happy, so I don't need to bother anymore. ."
"That's good." Chen Xiangxiang smiled heartily, "As long as Brother Rong is happy. After arriving at our home in two days, we will take you out to play. The city is bigger and there are more fun places."
"Then I'll thank Brother Xiang first." Murong smiled and cupped her hands.
Chen Xiangxiang doesn't like people calling him by his name directly. After all, the name Xiangxiang sounds really naive. So Murong Qingyan called him Brother Xiang.
"Brother Rong is the first time to leave the family for a long journey!" Chen Xiangjie said with a smile, "In the past, when I was in the family, didn't Brother Rong come out?"
"Very few." Murong smiled and shook his head, "In our family, when we reach a certain age, we all have to come out to experience. Before that, most of our time was spent in the family. Cultivation inside. This is also to make it safer to go out and experience in the future."
"It seems that Brother Rong's family really has very strict rules!" Chen Xiangjie nodded and sighed, "What about Brother Rong's fiancee? I heard that your family made a decision for you before. Married, that woman must be a very good person!"
When speaking, Chen Xiangjie secretly observed Rong Qing's expression. He wanted to see what Rong Qing thought about his fiancee. If this is just a marriage decided by the family, then Yaoyao has a great chance. However, if Rong Qing also had a heart for this marriage, it would be difficult for Yao Yao to win Rong Qing's heart.
Not only Chen Xiangjie, but also Chen Xiangxiang and Chen Wenyao couldn't help but look at Murong. Especially Chen Wenyao, her heart was full of tension at this time, she really wanted to know what Rong Qing thought about his fiancee. If there is no relationship between the two, that's really great.
Murong Qingyan was not a fool either, she naturally knew why the three brothers and sisters of the Chen family asked this question. However, this was exactly what he wanted. She is very annoying about Chen Wenyao's entanglement. If she can take this opportunity to make Chen Wenyao give up, it would be really great.
Thinking of this, a trace of tenderness appeared on Murong's face, with affection in her eyes, "Yes, she is indeed a very good woman, and it is my greatest blessing to be able to make a marriage contract with her."
Seeing the gentle look on Murong's face, Chen Wenyao felt that her heart was about to break. She asked with a trembling voice, "Is she really like this?"
"That's natural." Murong nodded and continued, "Their family and mine are family friends, so we are the right family. Besides, our two childhood sweethearts grew up together, and she is also very good at cultivation. Talented. Now her cultivation level is almost on par with mine, and in the future, after we get married, we will definitely be able to respect each other like a guest, sympathetic and melodious."
After hearing Murong Qingyan's words, Chen Wenyao's face suddenly turned pale, as if he had suffered a major blow.
The faces of Chen Xiangjie and Chen Xiangxiang were also not very good-looking. Obviously, such an answer was not within their expectations. Although I heard Rong Qing say before that he has already made a marriage contract. But when talking about this matter, Rong Qing's expression was very dull. That's why they thought that Rong Qing's marriage was only decided by the elders of their family, and there was no relationship between him and the woman.
But now it seems that Rong Qing seems to be very satisfied with this marriage, and his relationship with that woman seems to be very deep. If so, how could Yaoyao still have a chance!
Seeing the expressions of the three brothers and sisters of the Chen family, Murong Qingyan felt very satisfied. She has already said so, presumably in the future, they should no longer have the idea of sending her and Chen Wenyao to piles!
When the rotor on the side heard the words made up by Murong Qingyan, the expression on his face became a little weird, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
If it weren't for the fact that he knew that the young lady's words were false, he might have believed these nonsense. To be honest, when he saw the affectionate expression on Murong's face, he couldn't help but suspect that the man in front of him was the son, and he really already had a beloved fiancée.
It seemed that the attack was not strong enough. After thinking about it, Murong continued to speak, "Also, our family has already decided that after I return from this experience, we will hold a wedding for the two of us. At that time. , and also invite Brother Xiangjie and Brother Xiang to come over and have a drink together."
This time, Chen Wenyao's face had lost all blood, and it looked like he was about to faint at any time.
"Brother Rong Qing, I'm not very comfortable. I want to go back and have a rest first." Chen Wenyao smiled weakly and said, "I won't accompany you any more."
At this time, as long as she wanted to go back and cry, she couldn't accept it. Her sweetheart already had another woman in her heart.
"Yaoyao, are you alright!" Chen Xiangjie's face was full of concern.
Although Chen Xiangxiang didn't say anything, his face was full of concern.
"I'm fine." Chen Wenyao's face was pale, but she looked very pitiful, "I'm just not feeling well. I want to go back first, so as to disturb your interest."
