The next morning.
Yunzheng and Rong Shuo were about to ask to see the leader of the Chu family, but unexpectedly they met Chu Qiuchi and Xi Ye Weirong before they left the Chu Ke courtyard.
The matter was shelved.
But Chu Qiuchi and Xiye Weirong just wanted to meet their future daughter-in-law, so they simply took them to have breakfast.
On the other side, the friends also learned that Yunzheng and the others had gone to work, so they had to stay in the guest room to practice. After all, there was still half a month before the Tianyin Demon Realm opened.
They are eager to improve their cultivation.
The boundary is a good place to practice spiritual power, because the spiritual energy here is particularly rich.
…
September Pavilion, side hall lobby.
The maids brought breakfast dishes to the table one after another. In less than a moment, the table was filled with various dishes, most of which were light and not greasy.
Chu Qiuchi looked at Yunzheng tenderly, put a dumpling on Yunzheng's bowl with serving chopsticks, and said with a smile: "This dumpling is delicious, try it."
"Thank you, Auntie." Yunzheng nodded and smiled.
"You don't have to be so polite." Chu Qiuchi chuckled, and then she gave Rong Shuo another dumpling with the same meat filling.
"Shuo'er, try it."
Nishino Weirong was also quite nervous and introduced: "Your mother made this herself."
Rong Shuo looked down at the dumplings in the bowl, looked up at Chu Qiuchi and Xiye Weirong, raised the corners of his lips slightly, and said softly: "Thank you."
Chu Qiuchi and Xiye Weirong were stunned. They actually saw Shuoer smiling. This was the first time Shuoer smiled at them.
This seemed to bring them closer for an instant.
The couple was ecstatic.
Yunzheng raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw this scene.
Chu Qiuchi couldn't help but urge: "You two, don't just watch, try it quickly."
"Okay." Yunzheng agreed. She picked up the dumplings with chopsticks and took a bite. The skin was thin and filled with lots of stuffing. It tasted very fragrant and was still steaming hot.
"tasty."
Yunzheng and Rong Shuo said in unison.
"As long as it's delicious, that's fine." Chu Qiuchi looked delighted and smiled from the bottom of her heart. She picked up a few more different dishes with serving chopsticks and placed them in their bowls.
"These buns and sweet soup are both made by Wei Rong, and this peach spirit cake is made by me." Chu Qiuchi said with a smile on her eyebrows, adding a bit of excitement to her beautiful face.
Yunzheng smiled and said, "Auntie, uncle, you guys should eat too."
"Okay." Chu Qiuchi calmed down a little, nodded and smiled.
Yunzheng asked: "Uncle, does he know how to cook?"
"I know a little bit." Nishino Weirong looked gentle, with a warm smile on his lips.
Hearing this, Chu Qiuchi seemed to have recalled certain memories, and joked with a smile: "If he hadn't been good at cooking back then, I might not have become friends with him. I am very fond of food, so for so many years, he Meals are always prepared for me.”
"I see, uncle and aunt are really a good match." Yunzheng nodded suddenly, then looked sideways at the handsome man beside him and smiled at him.
Rong Shuo: "..."
Nishino Weirong asked with anticipation: "How is Shuo'er's cooking skills?"
Rong Shuo pursed her lips: "...It should be barely able to enter the mouth."
"Haha, it's okay, you can practice this." Nishino Weirong smiled awkwardly, then looked at Yunzheng apologetically and said, "Little girl Yunzheng, I will let him practice more cooking skills in the future."
Yunzheng nodded with a smile, "Uncle, aunt, you can just call me Zheng'er or Zhengzheng."
Chu Qiuchi said gently: "Okay, you are now Shuo'er's fiancée. We two have nothing to give you, so you keep this."
Chu Qiuchi stood up, took Yunzheng's hand, and placed a beautifully carved storage ring on Yunzheng's palm.
"Aunt, this..."
Chu Qiuchi said softly: "Keep it. If you don't want to recognize us, just give it back to us."
Yunzheng heard this and had no choice but to accept it.
Nishino Weirong also took out a storage ring and handed it to Rong Shuo, looking at him with an expectant look, "Shuo'er, this is what your parents want to give you."
Rong Shuo was silent for a moment. Under the nervous and anxious eyes of the couple, he reached out and took the ring, "Thank you."
"You don't have to be so polite." This is just what we can do to compensate you.
Chu Qiuchi's eyes were moist. She calmed down her excitement and sat down again.
Chu Qiuchi seemed to have remembered something and asked, "By the way, where do you want to go this morning?"
Rong Shuo said: "Go to the Master of the Chu family. We want to stay here for a while, waiting for the opportunity to enter the Tianyin Demon Realm."
Hearing this, Chu Qiuchi looked slightly shocked.
"Are you going to the Tianyin Demon Realm?" She sounded worried.
Yunzheng nodded and said, "Yes, Auntie, we have reasons to go."
Chu Qiuchi looked sad and said slowly: "It's very dangerous inside the Tianyin Demon Realm. If possible, I really don't want you to go in, but you have already made up your mind to go to the Tianyin Demon Realm, and I won't stop you. Shuo'er, Zheng Son, you can rest assured and stay on the Chujia Island. I will tell the Lord about the rest."
"Auntie, will this trouble you?" Yunzheng asked.
Chu Qiuchi smiled, "What's the trouble? Although I'm married, I don't have any status in the Chu family. The Lord is not an unkind person. You are my son and future daughter-in-law. It’s natural to stay on Chujia Island for a longer period of time.”
"What's more, you can still stay on Cujia Island even without me. It's just in a different way."
Shuo'er is the Emperor of the Five States, and with his status, if he negotiates with his father, there is a 90% chance that he can stay on the Cujia Island.
What's more, his father originally wanted to recruit Zheng'er and others. With Zheng'er's intelligence, he would be able to stay on the Cujia Island in some way.
It was just the simplest and most direct way for her to go and tell her father. What's more, she also wanted to see her father.
…
Chuke Courtyard.
A beautiful girl in a green dress leaned over and kept pushing away some flowers, as if she was looking for something. Her hands were scratched by some flower bone sharp thorns, and blood oozed out.
When Chu Hong and Chu Lu saw the girl in the green dress, they looked shocked, walked up quickly, and then saluted the girl.
"The slaves have seen Miss Yu Ning."
Chu Yuning frowned, turning her back on them, and just responded lightly.
"Miss Yu Ning, what are you looking for? The slaves can help."
"Stone."
"Excuse me, what kind of stone is it?"
Hearing this, Chu Yuning stood up straight, turned to look at Chu Hong and Chu Green, she stretched out her hand to show her thumbs, and explained: "It's an ordinary-looking stone, black and smooth, it should be better than mine." The thumb is twice as big."
Chu Hong was shocked, "Oh my god, Miss Yu Ning, your hand is injured."
Chu Yuning's fair and beautiful hands had a lot of skin scratched, and blood seeped out, which looked a bit shocking.
"Miss Yu Ning, please go ask the doctor to bandage you." Chu Hong was frightened and said quickly.
Chu Yuning frowned, "No need, it's just a minor injury."
After all, she felt that Chu Hong and Chu Lu were not sincerely looking for stones for her, so she turned around and continued to move some flowers and plants to see if there was the stone she used to hit Mo Jing.
Chu Lu suddenly remembered that after the dinner last night, the young man in black clothes came here and seemed to be looking for something. Her expression changed and she quickly said: "Miss Yu Ning, the stone you are looking for, Maybe it’s the guest named Mo Jing…”
