Some mistakes cannot be made up for once they are known.
Just like this.
Although Xiao Yan understood what Lu Yuan meant and what Nalan Yanran was thinking, the Xiao family must have lost all face, and his father Xiao Zhan must have lost all face.
It doesn't matter if Nalan Yanran is impulsive.
After all, as a time traveler, Xiao Yan also hated this ancient marriage contract. Even if he could not find a suitable partner in his life, he would not be willing to make do with the wrong person for the rest of his life.
Because this kind of compromise is an out-and-out torture for both parties. Only when you are tortured to the point of being bruised will you find that the other party is also bruised.
As for why there are so many stories about two people being happy...
Don't even look at what the family backgrounds of both parties are in this kind of mutually agreeable marriage. If the family backgrounds of both parties do not require them to worry about the daily necessities of life, then even if there is a conflict, it can still be resolved. resolve minor conflicts.
Everything a person does in life is to fill his belly.
If you don’t want to live anymore, there is no need to work hard.
Therefore, as a time traveler, Xiao Yan took the marriage contract very lightly, especially after Nalan Yanran told the cause and effect, and combined with Lu Yuan's modern version of the explanation, even if he was still angry, at this moment, The anger that wanted to cut Nalan Yanran into pieces was much less intense than before.
And when Xiao Yan gradually calmed down his anger.
A very difficult question was placed directly in front of him: How should he deal with this matter in the current situation?
To hold Nalan Yanran accountable?
Or choose to ignore this humiliation?
None of it seems good.
Therefore, after hesitating for two or three seconds, Xiao Yan set his sights on Lu Yuan: "What do you think I should do now?"
"It's very simple."
Lu Yuan gently snapped his fingers.
Without looking at the others, he said calmly:
"First, all the current handling methods are for everyone else present to see. If the reputation of Yunlan Sect can be destroyed with just one apology, then it doesn't matter whether we want this reputation or not."
"Second, your mentality hasn't changed yet."
"Based on our status, we can either die in the present with no name, or we can overwhelm all enemies and advance all the way to the top."
"So, do you think that if you became a fighting emperor now, would you care about breaking off the engagement and what other people think of you?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was slightly startled.
It seemed like some blind spot had been pointed out.
It's not a sudden enlightenment, but it's also a slight enlightenment.
After realizing this, Xiao Yan laughed: "No."
Yes.
Just as fellow Lu Yuan said.
Just like when he was young, he looked at ants. The ants may have good or bad opinions about him, but to him, they are all not worth mentioning.
The same principle applies here.
Lu Yuan also laughed.
Spreading his hands, he asked: "So, since we don't need to care about other people's opinions, why should we explain anything to others?"
With that said, Lu Yuan turned around.
Facing Xiao Zhan who was sitting in the main seat.
His expression was slightly straightened, and he held his hands calmly.
Then, he said calmly: "Uncle Xiao, my junior sister Nalan Yanran started this matter unreasonably. After I found out, my junior sister did not mention the cancellation of the engagement to Mr. Nalan Jie who made this engagement. The idea may be because she knows that Mr. Nalan Jie will not agree, or it may be because of some other reasons."
Having said this, Lu Yuan glanced at Nalan Yanran, who looked a little guilty, and did not continue to hold on to this shortcoming. He changed the topic and added:
"My master, Yun Yun, may or may not be aware of this matter. However, considering that my junior sister and Xiao Yan have different temperaments and temperaments, even if they are brought together, conflicts will eventually arise. Therefore, this It’s better to end the marriage that will never be happy in the end, so as not to end up with it and make the whole family uneasy.”
"Of course, that's a blunt statement."
"A more straightforward statement is..."
"I agree with this divorce."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
I thought Lu Yuan was here to support Xiao Yan.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a rake.
Xiao Zhan wanted to get up, but after thinking about it, he decided to wait. After all, the two sentences that Xiao Yan just said to the senior brother of the Yunlan Sect opposite him, and the excited hug that Xiao Yan gave after speaking, were not surprising. Like fake.
Xiao Xun'er doesn't have such a good temper as Xiao Zhan.
However, due to the strength of the other party, he did not interrupt.
As for everyone else…
Didn’t you see Kuzu Ye kneeling down?
Although no one except Ling Ying knows how Ge Ye knelt, the reality is that when you step on an extremely noble person and appear on the stage, no one dares to ask what your background is, even if... This is just a play between you and this guy.
Lu Yuan knew this very well.
His experiences gave him insight into human nature.
But now he can grasp human nature.
He spread his hands and continued calmly:
"I once heard a very meaningful saying."
"Children are not toys, nor are they patches used by elders to repair the mistakes they have made. Although I agree with Mr. Nalan Jie's character of making a promise, I do not agree with this act of using future generations to repay kindness."
"It is rude to curse the father to the son."
"So, I didn't want to say it in front of my junior sister."
"It's just that some things need to be said clearly. Otherwise, there may be too few people in this world who can understand."
"However, mistakes were made."
"Anyway, before that, Nalan Yanran, a disciple of Yun Yun, the leader of the Yunlan Sect, came to visit with the elders and other disciples of the Yunlan Sect. The attitude of the Xiao family was in place and the etiquette was given, and I, Yunlan Sect, The attitude of the Lan Sect is impolite, so as a member of the Yun Lan Sect, I would like to personally apologize to you, Uncle Xiao."
Xiao Zhan's expression improved slightly.
However, I don’t dare to overestimate it.
As a disciple of Yun Yun, the leader of Yunlan Sect, the other party is also the senior brother of Nalan Yanran. Even if Xiao Yan has a good relationship with this friend who has never met, this is only the relationship between Xiao Yan and the other party, not between him and him. relationship with the other party.
To put it more harshly: the other party was willing to call him "Uncle Xiao" because of Xiao Yan's face, and there was nothing wrong with him if he didn't want to call him that way.
Therefore, Xiao Zhan quickly stood up and returned the greeting to Lu Yuan.
Then, he replied respectfully: "You are serious."
"Can't talk about it."
Lu Yuan waved his hand.
Then, his eyes were focused on the Qi Gathering Powder that Kuzu Ye had placed on the table before. He paused for less than a second and spoke slowly:
"Let's talk about compensation first!"
"A Qi Gathering Powder is indeed an insult. Although it is not me who is insulted, insulting Xiao Yan's identity is actually no different from insulting me. Therefore, I will not use this Qi Gathering Powder to embarrass anyone." ”
"I have an alchemist in Yunlan Sect."
"I just took a look. Xiao Yan's fighting spirit attribute is also suitable for refining medicine. Although I don't know what Xiao Yan's talent is, I can help him embark on the path of refining medicine. Anyway, no matter how weak he is, he won't be able to join together. You can’t even practice low-level elixirs like Qi San.”
"This is one of the amends I give."
"The second apology is to help Xiao Yan recover his talent."
"I can't guarantee how far he can go, because with my current level, I can't guarantee Xiao Yan's credibility. However, everyone has to walk their own path after all, and I am the same. So I can only try my best to help Xiao Yan, that’s all.”
"The third apology is about the Xiao family's face."
"Although Xiao Yan and my junior sister had intense and friendly communication, exchanged opinions with each other, and reached a consensus on the engagement, there are some things that you can only get back by yourself."
"How about this……"
"Xiao Yan, Nalan Yanran, please think of a time."
"For example, let's discuss it again in a few years."
"This can be regarded as a spur and motivation."
"Speaking of a thousand words, an apology is just the comfort given by the superior to the inferior, or it is an action taken by the inferior to save his life. Real equality is achieved through fighting, not other people's willingness to give you this face. "
"I wonder if Uncle Xiao is satisfied with what I say?"
After saying that, Lu Yuan calmly bowed his hand to Xiao Zhan.
Behind him, Xiao Yan looked excited.
It's not that my eyes were full of tears, but I finally found a sense of security as a wanderer returning home. My eyes, which had endured three years of rolling eyes and all kinds of humiliation without breaking their guard, were now slightly moist.
A man bleeds but does not shed tears.
As a time traveler, Xiao Yan knows this very well.
Therefore, he suppressed the emotion in his heart.
Standing behind Lu Yuan.
Silently looking at Lu Yuan's back.
Xiao Zhan's face was also glowing red.
Today's incident can be described as a series of twists and turns.
First, Nalan Yanran broke off the engagement and put him and Yan'er on the fire. Then Yan'er came forward and got into a tense situation with Nalan Yanran and others. Finally, the senior brother of the Yunlan Sect, who had a good relationship with Xiao Yan, came forward. With all the etiquette and thoughtfulness, he made everything right before and even presented the perfect result, showing the Yunlan Sect's sincere attitude in wanting to resolve the matter.
So, what else does he have to disagree with?
The first apology was to give Xiao Yan his identity.
The alchemist is a hot commodity.
There is no alchemist in the Xiao family so far!
The second apology was given to Xiao Yan's future.
Xiao Yan's talent is very high.
This can be seen from childhood.
Even though the young man opposite said that he was not sure how high Xiao Yan could reach, he said it again. Even he, as Xiao Yan's father, was not sure about this issue.
It’s normal to be unsure.
However, as long as Xiao Yan's talent can be restored, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a gift of renewal. Although Xiao Yan, who currently started the third stage of Dou Qi, is a few years later than his peers, this is completely different from the lack of hope before. Two concepts.
As for the third apology...
In his opinion, it was completely unnecessary.
After all, the other party's previous actions and promises also showed the other party's sincere attitude towards solving the matter. The weight of the two apology is also very heavy. Whether it is for benefits or for face, for a person of Xiao Zhan's age, this is not a difficult question. Choice options.
However, since the other party has come up with this third apology, which can be said to be perfect, if he refuses, it seems that he is greedy.
Sometimes, rejection is about asking for more.
Xiao Zhan naturally understands this truth.
So, he straightened his clothes, bowed to Lu Yuan in front of everyone, and then replied solemnly:
"satisfy."
"Of course I'm satisfied."
"That's the gratitude of a father."
"I hope you will refuse."
"As for the point you just made, I think it is perfect. Maybe I am not very knowledgeable, but I also very much agree with what you just said: children are not toys, let alone things that parents use to repay their kindness."
"Although Mr. Nalan Jie may not be happy if you say this, but since you are so open-minded, I will no longer hide or worry about anything."
"Yan'er, why don't you say thank you?"
Xiao Zhan glanced at Xiao Yan, who looked like a lump on an elm tree.
At the end, he reminded helplessly.
Xiao Yan seemed to have just woken up from a dream.
After a moment of silence, he was about to speak.
However, Lu Yuan suddenly spoke...
"No need to thank you."
"You and I are the same."
“Instead of saying thank you, it’s better to take action.”
"As long as you are rich and noble, don't forget each other."
"Maybe I will hug your lap one day."
After saying that, Lu Yuan laughed softly.
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then started laughing.
"must."
It's like finding a close friend.
This warm feeling made Xiao Yan relax a lot.
It's not that he doesn't know the difference between providing help when it's time, and the icing on the cake. He's also a modern person, so he naturally knows that providing help when it's time is also intentional. In this world, everything is clearly marked with a price.
But there are many icings on the cake.
But there are only a few people who offer help in times of need.
Because everyone is afraid whether this down-and-out person will drag him down when it is time for him to help, but when the icing on the cake is the icing on the cake, everyone is thinking about how to make himself prosperous.
If you don’t come here admiringly at the peak, you won’t leave indifferently at the trough.
Since Lu Yuan chose to believe him...
He even said that he might hug his thighs in the future...
But at this moment, Xiao Yan's heart was not shaken at all.
Therefore, Xiao Yan said the word "certainly" very clearly and decisively.
However, Lu Yuan also had a small gift.
This gift was just prepared by Lu Yuan.
Not big.
But it is enough to stabilize the current situation.
"As soon as I met Uncle Xiao, I could see that Uncle Xiao was also a sensible person, and he had good self-cultivation. When everyone else was fighting for a little profit, he still maintained the face of the Xiao family."
"It can be seen that the stability of the Xiao family over the years is not without reason. Although I don't know the inside story, I personally feel that the reason why the Xiao family can develop so well in the environment where the Gallie family and the Oba family join forces is that, Uncle Xiao, who has far-sightedness and constantly improves the confidence and dignity of the Xiao family children, is indispensable!"
"The head of the Xiao family deserves his reputation!"
Lu Yuan cupped his hands calmly towards Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan understood immediately.
Don't think this is just a compliment.
It sounds like nonsense.
In fact, with this compliment, it would be almost impossible for the first elder, second elder, and third elder of the Xiao family to join forces and attack his position!
Yun Lanzong is not the direct superior of the Xiao family.
If I have to say it, the praise from the Gama royal family would be more helpful to the Xiao family.
Fame is still very important in this era.
At the very least, after the praise from the Jiama royal family, the Galie family and the Oba family no longer dare to join forces to target the Xiao family openly in the market.
Of course, Lu Yuan belongs to the Yunlan Sect.
If we divide it by level: Compliment is one level higher than praise, and the influence of Yunlan Sect is two levels lower than that of the Gama Royal Family...
Therefore, Lu Yuan's compliment could not even make the Jialie family and Oba family give in, but it was still very helpful in helping him put down the civil strife in the Xiao family.
The eldest elder of the Xiao family wants to abolish him, the head of the Xiao family?
sure!
However, who dares to support it?
No one knows whether Yunlan Sect will send someone to inquire after he is abolished. Even if this is the only possibility, it is enough to scare others.
Besides, aren’t there the first two apologies?
Once Xiao Yan becomes an alchemist...
Even if you are not a high-end alchemist...
Just a first-grade alchemist...
It was enough to make everyone afraid to act rashly.
Good man!
Xiao Zhan just wanted to hold Lu Yuan's hand at this moment, and then said loudly to the young man in front of him.
As for the previous loss of face...
Who has never been embarrassed in society?
As long as it can be redeemed, it doesn't matter.
The first elder, second elder, and third elder of the Xiao family were obviously aware of this, and their faces turned slightly dark. However, they looked at Kuzu Ye who was trapped in the stone bricks and the young man from the Yunlan Sect who passed out beside him, and they did not dare to speak for a while.
say what?
People even dare to do such cruel things to their own family members!
Dealing with them is really a casual matter!
In this case, there is no need for them to go up and scold him.
but……
"Xiao Yan and I still have something to talk about."
"Then there are some issues that need to be discussed."
"Including various signs of problems with Xiao Yan's talent."
Lu Yuan smiled and added lightly: "I wonder if Uncle Xiao is willing to let me stay at Xiao's house for a day. There are really a lot of things. It's already afternoon, and I'm afraid I won't be able to completely handle all the problems before midnight. "
Xiao Zhan thought it was some big deal...
result……
Unexpectedly, this is it...
"If you don't dislike him, you should treat him with courtesy."
Xiao Zhan laughed and took over the conversation.
Ever since Xiao Yan's fighting spirit began to subside, he has hired many pharmacists, used a lot of medicinal herbs, and even hired several alchemists over the years, but without exception, he could not see this characteristic in Xiao Yan. What's going on with this strange disease?
If you can't tell, you still need to look, smell and make a diagnosis.
Sometimes, they even have to stay at Xiao's house for two or three days.
After all, if some medicinal materials are poured down, it will take some time for the medicine to be effective. Even an alchemist cannot directly prescribe the right medicine.
Generally, based on speculation, some medicinal materials are poured in first.
Look at the effect.
Then, based on the reaction, the disease is judged.
Some diseases have variations.
Therefore, it will naturally take longer.
And since the young man in front of him dared to say that he could help Xiao Yan recover his talent, he must have seen Xiao Yan's illness, but seeing it did not mean that he could be cured immediately.
To be honest, if Lu Yuan hadn't spoken, Xiao Zhan would have even wanted Lu Yuan to stay for two more days, waiting until Xiao Yan's talent gradually returned, before sending Lu Yuan away politely.
Now that Xiao Zhan agrees, Lu Yuan's matter is basically settled.
As for the date of the fight between Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran...
"Three years!"
Xiao Yan looked directly at Nalan Yanran.
This time, there was no gnawing emotion in his eyes.
On the contrary, it brought a bit of understanding and peace.
Nalan Yanran also noticed these changes.
The originally arrogant aura gradually subsided.
He glanced at Lu Yuan and then nodded.
"Three years, I agree."
"Three years from now, we will decide whether we are better or worse."
"But where?"
Nalan Yanran asked.
Xiao Yan was also stumped by this question.
I thought about several places, but none of them felt right.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan also had some bad taste in his heart, coughed, and then suggested: "The location should be placed in the Yunlan Sect. This time, my Yunlan Sect will visit the Xiao family's door. Next time Even if Xiao Yan comes to the door of my Yunlan Sect, you will be destined to drink and peck, and you have a sense of destiny. What do you two think?"
Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran's eyes lit up.
"good!"
Xiao Yan was the first to agree.
Nalan Yanran followed closely: "Yes, yes."
"Then the matter is settled."
"Unless someone on both sides dies unexpectedly, otherwise, today, three years from now, will be the day when Xiao Yan goes to Yunlan Sect and Nalan Yanran has a decisive battle."
Lu Yuan nodded.
A final conclusion was made on this matter.
Then, he glanced at the depressed Ge Ye, and then focused on Nalan Yanran: "Are you taking the two of them back to the Yunlan Sect, or are you waiting for tomorrow and I will take you back to the Yunlan Sect? "
Nalan Yanran thought for a while.
In the rumors passed down by the disciples of the Yunlan Sect, Elder Ge Ye hesitated in his current predicament, but finally chose to believe the rumors from the disciples of the Yunlan Sect.
In other words, the senior brother in front of her is not strong, maybe he just used some special means to make Elder Kuzu Ye unable to speak.
If she leaves half a day earlier, she can return half a day earlier.
Depart one day later...
Isn’t it also traveling at this speed?
What's more, although the matter has been resolved, she is still a "bad guest" after all. It is best not to stay in Xiao's house any longer, lest something unexpected happens over time.
In addition, she also has another little thought.
For example, go back early to report to your teacher Yun Yun.
What if this boy is pretending?
Although the other party threw her a token of Yunlan Sect's inner disciple, the other party did not throw her the token of the most important core disciple of Yunlan Sect. Although there was a reason why her status as a junior sister was not enough to check, she still couldn't. Rule out the possibility that the other party is pretending.
Thinking like this, Nalan Yanran said politely: "Junior sister, I will go back first. I wonder if senior brother has anything you want me to bring back to the teacher?"
"No need to bring it."
"I will tell myself when I get back."
"It's just one day, don't rush."
Lu Yuan waved his hand indifferently.
Then, he nodded to Xiao Zhan.
Finally, he looked at Xiao Yan.
"Let's go!"
"Your family is familiar to you."
"Take me to a secluded place."
"Some problems should be solved."
