Mingyue City Li Family
Early in the morning, the Li family's martial arts arena was filled with shouts and shouts. This was when the family's disciples began to practice in the morning.
As a martial arts family, the children of the family practicing Sanfu in the winter and Sanfu in the summer are the foundation of the foundation. Only in this way can the family continue to thrive.
Li Changyue passed by the martial arts field with his maid Sang Ye, walking slowly, and happened to be seen by Li Changyu who was practicing martial arts.
"Seventh sister, where are you going?"
Li Changyu jumped to Changyue's side, his movements were light and he could tell at a glance that he had practiced Qing Gong well.
During the morning exercise, Li Changyu was wearing the Li family's standard training clothes, with a bright red bandage tied on her forehead, and her black and shiny hair was tied into a high ponytail. With her movements, the ponytail was swung and swung. She is young and beautiful.
Comparing with Li Changyu... Changyue's face was pale, she was wearing a long emerald green dress and a beaded jade ring on her head. She didn't look like a child of a martial arts family at all, but rather like a boudoir lady whose door was closed.
"Ahem..." Chang Yue covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief and couldn't help coughing twice, then she greeted Li Changyu softly, "Fourth sister, Sang Ye and I went out to buy some medicine."
"Fourth Miss." Sang Ye, the maid next to her, quickly bowed to Li Changyu.
Li Changyu waved to Sang Ye casually, looked at Changyue and asked: "Why don't you tell the servants to do it? You are so weak, can you go out? Or are you saying that the servants are cheating and bullying you in private? ?”
Chang Yue had a low sense of presence in the Li family and was not favored. She had been secretly bullied by servants before. Chang Yue was only a few years old at that time. If Granny Feng hadn't found out and reported it to Madam, Chang Yue would still have been there. I don’t know how much bullying I have to endure.
Granny Feng used to be the personal maid of Chang Yue's biological mother. After her master passed away, she stayed with her young master. She raised Chang Yue by herself.
Speaking of Chang Yue's biological mother, she was the concubine of Chang Yue's father, Li Xuan, the head of the Li family. Her name was Su Xueyuan, and she was the daughter of a small aristocratic family in Mingyue City.
Later, the Su family was destroyed by their enemies. Su Xueyuan, who was lucky enough to survive, used herself as reward and asked Li Xuan to help her take revenge.
Li Xuan was lustful and Su Xueyuan was extremely beautiful. Naturally, he couldn't refuse the temptation and agreed immediately.
However, Li Xuan was lustful and lustful, but his strength was very good. In addition, the Li family was a big family, and there was no shortage of contacts and intelligence networks. It didn't take long for Li Xuan to successfully avenge Su Xueyuan, and naturally he got Su Xueyuan. The commitment of this great beauty.
It's a pity that Su Xueyuan's life was not good. She died of illness not long after giving birth to Chang Yue. According to the doctor, it was because of depression.
Probably because she wasn't raised well in the womb, Chang Yue was born weak. If the Li family hadn't been short of money, there's no telling whether Chang Yue would have survived.
Although the eldest wife of the Li family usually ignored Chang Yue, she never paid less than Chang Yue in terms of food and clothing. She also paid Chang Yue less money for doctors to take medicine when she was sick over the years.
Chang Yue was secretly bullied by her servants back then, and the eldest lady did not tolerate it. She directly killed all the servants and severely rectified the family atmosphere. From then on, no one dared to bully Chang Yue anymore, even Chang Yue. Not favored at home.
This is a world where martial arts is valued, and human life is not valuable, especially ordinary people, so the eldest lady showed no mercy when she ordered the killing. On the contrary, Chang Yue was very frightened back then.
When the eldest lady killed her servant, she did it in front of Chang Yue. To this day, Chang Yue still remembers that her eyes were full of blood and she was so frightened that she became seriously ill.
But now, Chang Yue would no longer be frightened by such a small scene, after all...
By the way, Chang Yue's soul was not born and raised in this world, but came from another world called Blue Star.
When he was at Blue Star, Chang Yue was an ordinary social worker. He worked hard every day and could not make much money throughout the year. He got cancer at a young age and finally died in the hospital bed.
Originally, Chang Yue thought that her soul would return to the underworld after death, but she didn't expect that after becoming conscious again, it would end up in Su Xueyuan's belly.
In Chang Yue's previous life, she lived in a world ruled by law, grew up under the red flag, and never saw a dead dog. How could she see a bloody dead person? Naturally, she was frightened by the scene of the eldest lady killing her servants.
It was also at that time that Chang Yue truly realized that the world he lived in was very different from his previous life.
After a serious illness, Chang Yue changed her mentality... The eldest lady was able to take the life and death of the servants back then. If a stronger person appears in the future, will the Li family also change the position of the servants?
It's not that Chang Yue sympathizes with the servants who bullied her, it's just that they are kind of insulting.
I have been a human being for two lives, and in my previous life I "died young". Now Chang Yue is unfortunately very short-lived.
"Fourth sister, it's nothing." After hearing Li Changyu's words, Changyue shook her head and said, "I just stayed at home for too long and wanted to go out for some fresh air, so I bought some medicine."
Because of his frail body, Chang Yue seldom went out, not even once a month, so when he heard this, Li Changyu nodded in understanding.
"I see, you should go out more often, so go early and come back early, but don't stay outside for too long, otherwise it will be bad if you get sick again."
"I understand." Changyue nodded in agreement.
"Changyu, come back and practice quickly, why are you dawdling there!!!"
At this time, someone happened to be calling Li Changyu.
Li Changyu hurriedly responded, "Come on, come on, come right now!" After saying that, he ran towards the martial arts field. At the same time, he did not forget to turn back to Chang Yue and said, "I'm going back to practice, Qimei, you go quickly. Bar."
Changyue nodded lightly and looked towards the martial arts arena. The person who called away Li Changyu was her fifth sister Li Changyun, who was also Li Changyu's twin sister.
Speaking of Chang Yue's brothers and sisters, we have to mention the big stallion Li Xuan, the head of the Li family.
The fact that the head of the Li family is lustful is well-known in Mingyue City. In addition to his wife, he also has sixteen other concubines. Some of them are his own, and some are given to him by others to please him. Anyway, he is attracted to women. No one will be turned away.
Chang Yue's biological mother was Li Xuan's eleven concubines.
The eldest lady and sixteen concubines gave birth to a total of ten children for Li Xuan. Among them, the eldest son and the eldest lady were both descended from the eldest lady.
Li Xuan's ten children, except for the frail Chang Yue and the younger Xiao Jiu and Xiao Shi, all have very good martial arts talents, especially the eldest son Li Changming and the eldest daughter Li Changning.
The eldest son, Li Changming, was just over twenty, but his martial arts skills were already very outstanding. In the past two years, he had gained a good reputation in the world.
In order to practice martial arts, Li Changming has been traveling a lot in the past few years and has rarely been at home.
The eldest lady, Li Changning, is sixteen years old. She was chosen as a disciple by the powerful master of Chaoyun Sect when she was young. She was taken to Chaoyun Sect to practice as soon as she reached the age. She is not at home now.
Because of these two outstanding children, the eldest lady's position as the mistress of the house is very secure, which is why she never cares about or treats her concubine and concubine harshly.
Of course, the reason why the eldest lady's status is stable is not only because of her children, but also because of her outstanding martial arts skills. Back then, Chang Yue saw her whip a servant in half. The scene... was so bloody. Just how bloody.
Anyway, because of the existence of martial arts, in Chang Yue's view, this world is very abnormal, and all the advanced warriors are inhuman beings.
As for why the eldest lady, a strong woman with advanced martial arts skills, could tolerate her husband Li Xuan taking concubines one after another, then we have to talk about the eldest lady's natal family.
The eldest lady's natal family is not a big family. It could even be said to be unknown when it was not prosperous. Later, it gradually developed with the support of the Li family, so the eldest lady was naturally shorter than Li Xuan.
At the same time, the Li family's resource support is indispensable for the eldest lady to achieve today's cultivation. The money and skills all come from the Li family.
After looking at Li Changyun from a distance, Changyue left with Sang Ye.
On the martial arts field, Li Changyun stopped waving the long sword in his hand and said angrily to his sister: "Why are you talking to Li Changyue? She is a sick child, and she will be infected if you get close to her."
When Li Changyu heard this, he hit Li Changyun hard on the head.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Changyue is your sister. Don't be so rude as to be a sick person."
Li Changyun waved the long sword in his hand again and muttered: "I'm not wrong..."
Li Changyu shook his head helplessly and said nothing more.
There was a sick man in a martial arts family who couldn't even hold a sword, and there were a lot of people in the family talking about him.
Chang Yue was not aware of the conversation between the twin sisters. She and Li Changyun were not familiar with each other. They rarely met each other and rarely spoke to each other.
After leaving home, Chang Yue took Sang Ye to the drug store. She told Li Changyu that she was not lying when she said she bought medicine, but what she bought was not the medicine she usually took, but the medicine used to practice martial arts.
In the past, Chang Yue's health was very poor and he was indeed unable to practice martial arts, but it was different from today on.
In a martial arts world where the weak prey on the strong, how could Chang Yue allow herself to continue to exist as a weakling! In order to be able to practice, she has been working hard these years.
Mingyue City is a big city with very rich resources, so Chang Yue easily bought the medicinal materials he wanted at the drug store.
A warrior needs to open his pulse to practice. Only when his pulse is opened can a warrior officially begin to enter the martial arts. The medicine Chang Yue bought is used to open his pulse.
Martial arts are prevalent in this world, and medicinal materials for opening pulses can be bought with money. What is difficult to buy are advanced exercises and martial arts, but these two are not a big problem for Chang Yue.
Sang Ye carried the medicine bag and followed his lady out of the medicine shop and asked: "Miss, where are we going next? Going home?"
Changyue shook her head and said, "No, I still have to go somewhere." After saying that, she walked in one direction.
Sang Ye didn't know where his lady was going, but she followed her master honestly.
The second place Chang Yue went to was a jewelry shop.
As soon as the waiters in the store saw the master and servant entering the door, they immediately greeted them happily.
"Girl, please come inside, please come inside." After introducing the two into the store, the clerk said enthusiastically, "What do you want to buy, girl?"
Changyue was well-dressed, and it was obvious from a glance that she was not an ordinary girl, so the man took great notice of her.
Chang Yue casually glanced at the shop, "I want to buy some jade stones. Do you have any recommendations?"
Hearing this, the clerk immediately raised a smile and said: "Then you have come to the right place. Our Ruyi Pavilion is the leading old shop in Mingyue City. We have all the jade you want! Come on... this way, please... this way Please." As he said this, the waiter led Chang Yue to a table, which was filled with all kinds of beautifully carved jade stones.
"Take a look at which piece you like, and I'll give it to you to take a look at."
Changyue picked up a piece that looked good and asked, "How much does this piece cost?"
The clerk's eyes lit up when he saw this, "You really have a good eye. This is a high-quality warm jade from Yuzhou. It only costs two hundred gold."
Chang Yue knew that the world was divided into thirteen states, Mingyue City was located in Minzhou, and Yuzhou was famous for producing all kinds of high-quality jade.
Two hundred gold? Just need it! Chang Yue felt that this guy might be joking with him. Two hundred gold, not two hundred silver, let alone two hundred copper. Is this a money grab? Do all your big stores sell things this way? She really couldn't afford two hundred gold.
Although the Li family is rich, Chang Yue, who was born with a frail body, is very poor. Most of her money was used by Granny Feng to buy supplements for her. Now her entire possessions are only a little over thirty gold. This is after all her hard work over the years. What I saved.
Alas...poor!
Thirty gold is a lot of money. It is already a huge amount of money for ordinary people, but it is not enough to buy luxury goods.
Seeing the change in Chang Yue's expression, the clerk quickly explained: "Girl, we don't want much of this jade at all. Yuzhou is not close to us, and a piece of high-quality jade produced in Yuzhou is rarely seen."
Chang Yue didn't say much, put down the jade in his hand, picked up another piece of inferior quality and asked, "Where's this one?"
"One hundred and fifty gold."
If you can't afford it, put it down.
"What about this piece?"
"One hundred gold."
If you can't afford it, put it down.
…
I asked for several dollars in a row, but Chang Yue couldn't afford it.
Changyue looked a little embarrassed and asked, "Do you have any of ordinary quality here?"
Seeing that Chang Yue's clothes were too expensive, the waiter didn't say much. He still said with a smile on his face: "I'm afraid the quality is too ordinary and may not be suitable for you, Miss."
Although Chang Yue's face is extremely pale due to her frailty, she has to be said to be very beautiful. She has inherited Su Xueyuan's beauty, and is even more beautiful, but she is still young and has not yet fully grown.
A great beauty must be worthy of high-quality jade.
Let's not talk about whether it is worthy or not. Chang Yue bought the jade for other purposes. I'm afraid the quality is too poor.
Looking at the dazzling jade in front of her eyes, Chang Yue suddenly had an idea and asked the waiter: "Do you carve all the jade by yourself?"
Upon hearing this, the clerk immediately raised his head and replied proudly: "Of course, our Ruyi Pavilion has semicolons in various places, and the carving master in the pavilion is famous all over the world."
Changyue's eyes lit up and she asked again: "Then do you sell the scraps left over from carving jade?" Anyway, she didn't buy the jade for wearing, so it didn't matter whether it was scraps or not.
The guy was stunned when he heard this, buying scraps? What's the use of this thing? Why is this lady so strange!
Although the clerk's mind was changing a lot, his expression remained unchanged and his professionalism was very high.
"Well...we haven't sold scraps yet. How about you wait here while I go ask?"
Changyue felt happy when she heard this: "Sorry to trouble you."
The clerk nodded, turned around and went into the store, and walked out after a while.
"Girl, our shopkeeper said he can take you to have a look."
In fact, jade scraps are also useful in Ruyige, such as carving jade buttons, rings, etc., which can also be sold.
But since someone wants to buy it, it’s not like they can’t sell it.
Under the leadership of the waiter, Chang Yue came to the backyard of Ruyi Pavilion, where the master carvers of Ruyi Pavilion worked. However, Chang Yue did not see the so-called master carvers, but was led by the waiter to the place where jade scraps were stored. place.
In a room, Chang Yue successfully bought the jade scraps he wanted. Because they were all scraps, the price was very cheap. He bought a large bag with 30 gold in total.
After sending Chang Yue out, the waiter said happily: "Girl, come back next time."
Although what was sold was scraps, thirty gold was still a lot. After all, Ruyi Pavilion’s finished jade was expensive, and it was impossible for people to buy it every day. Most of what they sold were jewelry such as pearl hairpins, and the profits were higher than those of the first-class products. Jade is far behind.
Back at Li's house, Li Changyu and others had not finished their morning exercises. Chang Yue went directly back to her yard, where Granny Feng was waiting at the gate of the yard and looked up.
Seeing Chang Yue and Sang Ye coming back, Granny Feng hurriedly came up to them and said, "My aunt, you are back." As she said this, she took the baggage containing the jade from Sang Ye's hand.
Chang Yue is not in good health. Granny Feng usually holds her in her hands for fear of falling, and holds her in her mouth for fear of melting. Today she went out alone, how could Granny Feng not be worried.
Grandma Feng is also a martial arts practitioner. She carries the baggage effortlessly and walks more gracefully than Mulberry Ye.
Sang Ye has also practiced martial arts with Grandma Feng in recent years, but her qualifications are average and she is not very old, so she has not gained much proficiency in the practice.
"Miss, did you encounter anything outside?" Granny Feng asked with concern.
In a world where martial arts is popular, there are many examples of accidents happening while walking on the road, not to mention that Chang Yue is still a sick child who has no power to restrain a chicken.
Chang Yue smiled and shook her head: "Have a good trip."
"That's good, that's good." When Granny Feng heard this, the wrinkles on her face spread instantly. She knew why Chang Yue went out today, so she didn't ask any more questions.
