Fengjiu turned and left, Leng Shuang followed with the child in her arms. Leng Huawei lagged behind half a step and said to Old Mei, "There's food in the kitchen. If you're hungry, go check out the kitchen!" After saying that, he also left.
Old Mei watched them leave, touched his bald head, looked down at himself, stretched out his hand and performed a purification spell, and his whole body was refreshed from head to toe.
He stroked his beard and smiled, then walked out, ready to go to the kitchen to see if there was anything he could eat to fill his stomach.
For a cultivator of his level, it doesn't really matter whether he eats or not. He has been fasting for who knows how many years. For a cultivator, eating is just to satisfy his appetite. Of course, if it is spiritual rice, animal meat or the like, it is a different story.
However, thinking of what Fengjiu had just said to him, he couldn't help but wonder: Did she see through it? That's why she dared to entrust him with such a thing.
On the other side, Feng Jiu returned to the courtyard. Leng Shuang and Leng Hua also came to the courtyard. After they entered the room, they looked at each other and asked, "Master, do you know the origins of Elder Mei?"
Fengjiu sat down in the room, poured a glass of water and drank it, then said with a smile: "I don't know his origins, but I think I can vaguely guess his reasons."
"He seems to treat the young master a little differently." Leng Hua pondered and expressed his observations.
"Yes, because he came here just for Xiao Haoer." Feng Jiu said, playing with the teacup, and said: "If I'm not mistaken, he should know Xiao Haoer's life experience, and he came to me for Xiao Haoer."
"Then doesn't the master need to be on guard against him? He is so powerful, what if he snatches the young master away?" Leng Shuang asked worriedly.
Feng Jiu chuckled and shook her head: "He won't. Judging from the situation when he picked up Xiao Hao'er, Xiao Hao'er's parents are probably not in a good condition. Rather than taking Xiao Hao'er back and bearing the danger, it would be more practical for him to stay here and protect him."
"Don't worry! He won't take Xiao Hao'er away, at least not now. Moreover, he is very strong. With him here to protect me, I don't have to worry about the mansion even if I go out. You don't have to stop him from contacting Xiao Hao'er when I'm not in the mansion. If he wants to hold him, let him hold him and let him teach him. This will only benefit Hao'er."
After hearing this, the two nodded: "Yes."
Although Leng Hua agreed, he was still a little worried and asked: "Master, Elder Mei has never admitted it. If he did not come for the young master, but had other intentions, then..."
“I know what you’re worried about.” Feng Jiu chuckled, glanced at the two of them, and said with a smile: “But you don’t know, I asked Huo Feng to guard Leng Shuang’s courtyard. Although Elder Mei didn’t show much during the day and didn’t do anything out of the ordinary during the days he entered the mansion, he sneaked into Leng Shuang’s courtyard to see Hao’er one night.”
Hearing this, Leng Shuang was slightly surprised. That old Mei had actually sneaked into her yard? She actually had no idea about it.
"Master, Leng Shuang was careless." She felt a little guilty. If anything happened, it would be too late.
Feng Jiu smiled slightly: "His strength is above mine, and it is easy for him to sneak into your yard. Even if you are more vigilant, you can't find his trace, so there is no need to blame yourself."
