However, although Chen Huanan was thinking this in his mind, he didn't show any emotion on his face.
He just pretended to be surprised and said, "It turns out that the mountain master and I are really the same family."
After saying this, Chen Huanan just smiled and was about to invite Li Zheng, Chen Yanrong and his party into the house. Unexpectedly, Li Zheng was about to follow Chen Yanrong in.
Not far away, the voice of the eldest brother of the Chen family suddenly came, "Li Zheng, it's not good. The villagers are fighting with my second brother. Please help me break up the fight."
As soon as he heard this, he couldn't sit still anymore. He just shouted, "What's going on?"
The eldest brother of the Chen family only took a breath and said, "My second brother and I were preparing to cultivate in the newly assigned field, but unexpectedly a tall man said that the field belonged to him."
Upon hearing this, Li Zheng could only say to Chen Yanrong, "Mountain Master, you and the Chen family brother chat first, I will go over and take a look."
Chen Yanrong didn't think much about it at the moment. She nodded and said, "That's fine, you can just let them go first."
Chen Huan'an only said, "I'm here in Lizheng, so don't worry."
Li Zheng was thinking that since Chen Huanan and Chen Yanrong were related, they would naturally not stop at that moment.
After that, Chen Huanan also said to Chen Yanrong, "Mountain Master, Deputy Village Master, let's invite him inside."
After hearing this, Chen Yanrong naturally followed and walked in.
Entering the inner room at this time, she could see a group of female relatives sitting in the room, while the young men were playing a game of chasing me around the stools. Their laughter only reached Chen Yanrong's ears, and even One of the boys just walked up to Chen Yanrong and said, "Hee hee, I caught it!"
Chen Huan'an immediately reprimanded, "Xiaoyu, take your brother to play quickly and don't disturb the distinguished guest."
After hearing Third Uncle's scolding, a girl in red, only seven or eight years old, immediately carried the little boy holding Chen Yanrong's thigh to the side.
Chen Yanrong raised her head and looked at the people in the room. Everyone looked at Chen Yanrong, who was dressed in mourning clothes. Their eyes were full of unknown curiosity.
Chen Huanan then took the initiative to introduce Chen Yanrong and said, "This is the mountain owner of Yunhu Village and the granddaughter of Chen Dashima. Speaking of which, we should call her cousin."
After introducing Chen Yanrong to everyone, Chen Huanan introduced his two sisters-in-law first to Chen Yanrong and said, "This is my eldest brother's wife, that is my second brother's wife, and the one who was just passing by Huan'an It’s my eldest brother.”
Hearing this, Chen Yanrong responded and said, "I know." Then he looked at the two young women, one tall and one short, and called sister-in-law twice. At that moment, except for the two sisters-in-law, the rest of the children in the room They are all children of their families.
Chen Yanrong's eyes bypassed these people, and then only fell on the faces of a young man and woman in the back row. Both of them had very ordinary looks. The woman's face was even covered with freckles and she also had a bulbous nose, while the man's face was very ordinary. It has single slit eyes and large teeth.
The woman is dressed more luxuriously and looks like a silly girl from a small landowner's family. Although the man is dressed as a scholar, he looks like a farmer.
Chen Yanrong naturally didn't recognize Chen Yannian because of Chen Yannian's disguise. Even when Chen Yannian looked at her, Chen Yanrong couldn't help turning her head to look at Chen Huanan.
"Cousin, who are these two?" Chen Yanrong asked.
Upon hearing Chen Yanrong's inquiry, Chen Huanan seemed to have just remembered that there were two people here that he had not introduced.
He first pointed at the woman with a garlic nose and said, "This is Zhou Jinli."
Then he pointed at Chen Huan'an with the big teeth and said, "This is Su Zirui, they are the scholar ladies who eloped here."
Chen Yanrong originally had some doubts about the identities of these two people. She only wanted to investigate their identities later, but she obviously did not expect that they would bump into her first before she went to find them. Right under my nose.
Seeing Chen Yanrong looking at the two of them, Chen Huanan just smiled and introduced him proactively, "They are our neighbors. We have known each other outside before. They don't know how to cook, so they want to meet with them." Let’s cook and eat together.”
Hearing Chen Huanan's words, Chen Yanrong just nodded towards the two of them, and then Chen Huanan said to Chen Yanrong, "Cousin Yanrong, we
We'd better go sit inside, there are so many people outside. "
After hearing Chen Huanan's words, Chen Yanrong naturally followed Chen Huanan's footsteps and walked forward.
However, just when she was about to step into the inner room, Chen Yanrong suddenly turned around. He looked at Chen Hongnian among the group of people. When Chen Hongnian was looked at by him, a nervous look flashed across her face.
But Chen Yanrong just took the initiative and said, "I heard that you two are from Yunzhou?"
Chen Yannian nodded quickly.
Chen Yanrong asked curiously, "Yunzhou is thousands of miles away from Anxi. You just chose to elope to avoid your relatives. Why did you two escape here instead of choosing a safe area nearby?"
Hearing Chen Yanrong's question, Chen Yannian only showed a wry smile and said, "Although my family is not very prestigious in Yunzhou, my family is engaged in business. We have many heirs and brothers, and our business scope is wide. If you settle down in any city in Yunzhou, you may be found by my brothers."
"It's fine if I'm alone. My brothers won't do anything to me. But the problem right now is that my eldest brothers don't agree with me being with Zi Rui. They also said that if they see Zi Rui in the future, they will do it. We beat Zirui once, so we had no choice but to flee all the way south. We fled to the south because we heard that the scenery in the south is completely different from that in Yunzhou. So I wanted to come and experience it right now."
"As for why we came to Yunhu Village, it's because after getting to know Brother Huan'an, we wanted to be neighbors with him, so we came here."
Although Chen Yannian was nervous at the moment, what he said was accurate.
At this moment, Chen Huanan just smiled and helped Chen Yannian and said, "It was a blessing for our brothers to escape this time, so they said they had nowhere to go right now, so I took the initiative to invite them here. After all, this is the place." The houses are cheap and the people are easy to get along with.”
Chen Yanrong only felt that these words had some truth, and she no longer had any doubts about Chen Changnian. She just smiled and said, "Since the girl is my cousin's benefactor, she is also my benefactor. If you have any trouble in the future, You can take the initiative to talk to us.”
In response to Chen Yanrong's show of goodwill, Chen Yannian only quickly pulled Yan Ziqing away and said, "Zirui, why don't you thank me quickly, Lord Mountain Master."
Yan Ziqing just said in an eloquent manner, "It is said that a great favor is never thanked. If the mountain master needs any help in the future, wouldn't it be great if the two of us don't refuse?"
Hearing Yan Ziqing's words, Chen Yanrong felt that not only were these two ugly in appearance, but they also seemed to have some problems with their personalities.
At the moment, she didn't think about these two people going to the court. After all, the way these two people behaved was too easy for people to look down on.
The people in the imperial court were the best at putting on airs, and she thought she could recognize those eagles and dogs almost at a glance.
Therefore, after hearing what Yan Ziqing said, Chen Yanrong just smiled softly, and then she ignored Chen Changnian and Yan Ziqing.
What she didn't know was that when she was observing Chen Hongnian, Chen Hongnian was also observing her, and compared to her observation of herself, Chen Hongnian obviously understood all the reactions of her cousin better than she did.
At this moment, Chen Yanrong just kept smiling without looking back, which meant that she had almost nothing to doubt about herself.
Therefore, after Chen Yanrong entered the inner room, Chen Changnian just pretended to be arrogant and said, "Sister-in-law, I have finished eating. Thank you very much for your hospitality today. I have something to do with Ziqing, so I will go back first."
After hearing this, the elder sister-in-law of the Chen family naturally just responded loudly and said, "Miss Lijin and brother Zirui should go away! I won't see you off here."
Chen Changnian only responded, "Sister-in-law, why are you so polite? What is the relationship between our two families?"
Sister-in-law of the Chen family just smiled and responded.
When he came out later, Chen Yannian immediately tore off the mask he had used to disguise himself.
When their appearance returned to their original appearance, the eldest brother of the Chen family and Li Zhengzhi, who had just been called away by the eldest brother, also came to the yard supporting the second brother who had a bruised nose and face.
When Chen Changnian saw her second brother with a bruised nose and swollen face, she couldn't help but feel guilty for a moment. After all, she just asked her eldest brother and her second brother to cooperate with each other to lure Li Zheng away. She didn't expect that the two of them would use real torture tactics.
The second brother was being held up by the two men, and he was only groaning and screaming in pain.
Chen Yannian could only take the initiative to call out, "Brother, second brother, what's going on?"
Hearing Chen Changnian's question, the eldest brother said, "What else can happen? The boy next door planted lotus seeds in the paddy field when no one came before, so he didn't allow us to farm it. This is what we bought." The land he chose was just left alone, but now that it is occupied, there is no reason why he should not return it!"
After saying this, the eldest brother said angrily, "In the end, he just refused to return the favor and started fighting with us. I was really angry to death."
It could be heard that the eldest brother was genuinely angry, and the second brother was also truly hurt, so the possibility of the two of them acting together was very slim.
Chen Yannian immediately responded, "If that's the case, it's really annoying. Li Zheng, we all paid, you have to give us an explanation."
After hearing what Chen Changnian said, Na Zheng only cooperated and said, "That's natural. I will definitely solve this matter."
Although Li Zheng promised happily, he was still complaining in his heart. Although he was the Li Zheng of this village, the people in this village were all thorns and desperadoes, and some thorns were Li Zheng. I dare not face the limelight directly.
And the man who was fighting with the second child was obviously such a thorn.
On a normal day, he might be able to persuade the relatively weak newcomers to endure the sting. But now that these people are relatives of the mountain owner, he can't make peace with them.
