Chang Yue heard the conversation between the two people opposite her, and Granny Feng, who was more cultivated than her, naturally heard it too. Can she tolerate her young lady being so slandered?
Obviously not, Granny Feng's face turned cold, she reached out and grabbed a tea cup on the table, and threw it out with a "shoo".
Hearing a scream, He Longxin flew out and fell heavily on the grass. It was only because Granny Feng still had sense, otherwise the blow just now would have killed the boy.
He Longxin's scream made Song Shi's face turn pale. He knew that the conversation just now must have been heard by Miss Li Qi opposite him, and his face suddenly turned red.
Although he was not the one who said bad things, he had just been fascinated by the beauty of the seventh lady, and it was inevitable that he felt guilty.
At the same time, other nearby guests were also attracted by the screams.
The young master of the He family, He Longrui, walked out of the crowd and saw her cousin lying on the grass, holding his stomach and wailing, with a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth. She quickly stepped forward and asked: "What happened? Long Xin, Who hurt you?"
He Longxin grimaced and pointed tremblingly at Changyue and the other three people sitting in the pavilion.
He Longrui looked at the pavilion and didn't recognize Chang Yue for a while. Finally, the maid next to her whispered something in her ear. Only then did she know Chang Yue's identity, and she looked slightly startled.
To be honest, she really didn't pay attention to the seventh lady of the Li family who couldn't practice before. She didn't expect that this young lady Li Qi was so beautiful at such a young age.
It's just that his face is a little too pale. He is indeed innately weak.
He Longxin took a step forward and said hello to Changyue: "Sister Li Qi, you have hurt my dragon heart for some reason."
Chang Yue didn't speak, she just coughed twice with a white face, but Granny Feng stepped forward and said coldly: "You He family are really good at hospitality, and you even humiliated my girl in front of the master, old slave today It’s an eye-opener!
Thanks to the fact that the Li and He families have known each other for so many years, the old lady of the He family was still the aunt of the Li family. Now I am afraid that all this affection has been forgotten! "
It is common for the five major families in Mingyue City to marry each other. Back then, He Longrui's grandfather married Li Xuan's aunt.
Strictly speaking, the Li and He families are still closely related cousins.
Granny Feng's words made He Longrui's face turn ugly. She glared at He Longxin fiercely and asked:
"Long Xin, tell me, what happened? How did you offend Miss Seventh!"
He Longxin was so frightened by his cousin that he trembled all over, and in the end he could only hesitantly repeat what he had just said.
The master has heard it clearly, and he can't deny it now even if he wants to.
After hearing this, He Longrui felt that her head was going to explode. She gave He Longxin a "I'll deal with you later" expression, then bent down and saluted Changyue and apologized:
"Sister Li Qi, I will definitely give you an explanation later on about Long Xin. I am here to apologize to you on his behalf."
If we consider the relationship between Aunt Changyue and Grandpa He Longrui, Chang Yue is actually one generation higher than He Longrui. However, the Li family and the He family have always been friends with each other from the previous generation to this generation. Gradually, everyone I don’t care about seniority so much anymore.
But there should be no lack of etiquette.
"Cough cough cough..." Chang Yue coughed twice and waved her hands and said, "Sister He is serious. It's just a joke. Chang Yue doesn't take it to heart."
He Longrui looked ashamed and said, "Seventh sister is still broad-minded."
"Cough cough cough..." Chang Yue just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to hide, so she suddenly coughed twice, "I'm not in good health. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here with you today. I ask for your forgiveness, brothers. "
Among family friends, the elders, whether male or female, are called elder brothers by their peers.
Everyone expressed their understanding after hearing this.
Chang Yue was about to take the opportunity to sneak away when she saw several of her brothers and sisters coming over. They had just been dragged by Li Xuan to meet their elders to show off, so they had just received the news.
Li Changming angrily grabbed He Longxin's collar and was about to beat him, but was stopped by Chang Yue who "knows the general situation".
This person cannot be beaten. The two families are relatives and family friends. If the fight is justified, it becomes unreasonable. It is better to leave it to the elders to handle it.
In the eyes of everyone who looked at her with concern or sympathy, Chang Yue clutched her chest, supported Sang Ye and staggered back to her yard.
As soon as he returned to the courtyard, Changyue let out a long sigh of relief.
"Huh, it's better to stay in your own territory and feel comfortable."
Sang Ye was almost furious.
"Miss, what did you do with your slave just now? I want to chop that bullshit young master of the He family with a sword!"
Chang Yue waved her hands indifferently and said: "If you really want to do this, we will become unreasonable even if we are reasonable. Didn't Granny Feng vent her anger on my behalf?"
When Grandma Feng heard this, she said with sadness: "I only regretted that the old slave was too gentle. Looking back now, I feel that I have to let him break at least two more ribs to relieve the hatred in the old slave's heart!"
Changyue chuckled: "Okay, don't be aggrieved. Just watch. The He family will give me an explanation."
Although Chang Yue is just a concubine, He Longxin is not the main branch of the He family. Now that He Longxin dares to humiliate Miss Li in the Li family, the He family will certainly express her feelings.
What's more, Chang Yue's actual seniority is still that of Chang He Longxin!
Sure enough, nothing unexpected happened to Chang Yue.
Early the next morning, the head of the He family brought He Longxin to the Li family to plead guilty. He was really going to plead guilty, and he even planned to make He Longxin kneel outside the Changyue courtyard.
But Chang Yue said that she was not in good health and did not want to see the bloody scene. In fact, Chang Yue was hunting strange beasts in her second body!
As expected, that medicine rabbit has a background. It seems to know the place where the second body lives, and what kind of strange beasts there are. It almost knows everything about it. With its guidance, Changyue has been enjoying it recently.
Changyue's Xuanyin snake body became more and more powerful because it had preyed on many strange beasts.
Speaking of the He family, after Chang Yue refused to let He Longxin kneel outside his yard, the head of the He family gave him ten lashes to make amends at the Li family.
Even though he only has ten whips, what is the cultivation level of the He Family Master? He Longxin couldn't even think of getting out of bed and walking if he didn't rest for ten days and a half.
In addition, the He family also sent Chang Yue many medicinal materials to replenish the body. There were even two roots of the century-old red sun ginseng. It must be said that she was bleeding heavily.
Just because Changyue's appearance yesterday when she was blown over by the wind left a deep impression on the young masters and ladies of various families.
Then came the follow-up to the banquet after Chang Yue left yesterday. On such occasions, it is a fixed procedure for juniors from various families to compete.
The heads of the five families all took out the lottery, hoping that their juniors can live up to their expectations.
The final winner at first was Chang Yue's second brother Li Changyou, which made every family head envious and jealous. Li Xuan once again came to the limelight.
Because Li Changming was already a warrior in the Ning Yuan realm, he had no end.
Just when the family heads were about to give the winnings to Li Changyou, the Lord of Mingyue City suddenly arrived unexpectedly with his disciples and went on stage to defeat Li Changyou. This made all the family heads look ugly.
This was a gathering of the Fifth Family, and the City Lord's Mansion was not invited at all.
In the end, Li Changming had to appear and regain his face.
The members of the Fifth Family can be humble to each other, but when facing the City Lord's Palace, they have no intention of being humble. The relationship between the Fifth Family and the City Lord's Palace has always been that if you are weak, they will be strong, and if you are strong, they will be weak.
However, these have nothing to do with the current Chang Yue. Chang Yue's daily life is still regular. He meditates to practice Qi, hone his sword and martial arts skills, uses his second body to hunt prey and grow up. In his spare time, he studies medicine with Yao Tu. .
All in all, it was a very fulfilling life, and her daily progress was visible to the naked eye.
On this day, Chang Yue went out hunting for the second time and came back. He saw Yao Rabbit cooking something in a stone pot by the edge of the cold pool.
Originally, it planned to go back to the pond to digest the prey it had just eaten, but it was suddenly stopped by the medicine rabbit.
"What's the matter?" Changyue asked doubtfully.
Yao Rabbit brought the stone pot to Chang Yue, and saw that it was filled with a pot full of black potion, which was still steaming with heat and exuding a pungent smell.
"Drink it." Yaotu said.
"Just let me drink this shit!" Chang Yue made it clear that she was unwilling. Turn around and go back to Hantan.
"Fenren! Drink it, it will be good for you." Yaotu continued.
Chang Yue shook his head and refused: "If you say it's good, it's good. I won't drink it." Ever since he discovered that Yao Rabbit is always mysterious, he has been full of doubts about Yao Rabbit, and now he doesn't dare to drink its potion casually.
Yao Tu said with hatred: "What good will it do me if I harm you? This is a potion that can help you gradually awaken the blood of the Ba Snake!"
Chang Yue still shook her head in disbelief. In the past, she thought the little rabbit was cute and simple-minded. But now the more she looks at it, the more she feels that this guy was just faking it before.
Yao Tu was forced to panic: "Okay, you don't believe me, do you?"
As he spoke, it bit him hard on his wrist, and blood immediately flowed out.
Chang Yue was dumbfounded at first glance: "Even if I don't believe you, you won't harm yourself! Even if you harm yourself, I won't change my attitude."
"Who wants to harm themselves!" Yao Tu glared at Chang Yue fiercely.
Then Chang Yue watched Yao Tu draw a complicated pattern on the ground with his own blood, which looked a bit like the magic circle in the anime Chang Yue had seen in his previous life.
After finishing the painting, it said to Changyue: "Give me some of your blood too."
Changyue asked warily: "Why do you want my blood? Are you trying to draw a circle and curse me?"
Yao Tu was furious: "Just give it to me, can I curse you in front of you? Besides, do you think I can curse you like this?"
Changyue nodded: "It looks like it, very similar!"
Finally, with Yao Tu's repeated assurances, Chang Yue gave her the blood.
"Don't play tricks. If you dare to do anything disadvantageous to me, I will swallow you up. You are no match for me!" Chang Yue threatened Yao Tu.
"Yes, yes, yes." Yao Tu nodded perfunctorily, and just used Chang Yue's blood to write and draw on the ground, and finally drew a pattern that was exactly the same as the previous one.
"Okay, now you enter the pattern painted with my blood, and I enter the pattern painted with your blood." Yao Tu said.
"What on earth are you going to do?" Chang Yue asked.
"Don't you know it when you go in? I won't harm you!" Yao Tu was so confused by Chang Yue's question.
Changyue saw that the two patterns were exactly the same, so she thought it would be fine, so she swam in.
After both beasts entered the pattern, Yaotu closed his eyes and began to mutter. As time passed, Changyue saw that the blood lines on the ground started to glow.
Immediately afterwards, the patterns drawn with their blood began to shrink rapidly, turning into the size of a coin in the blink of an eye, and penetrated into the eyebrows of the two beasts with a "whoosh" sound.
Changyue was startled by this sudden scene. At this time, all the visions had disappeared, and it could only keep spinning in place anxiously.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
Yao Rabbit also opened his eyes at this time and said: "Okay, don't change it. It's just a contract not to harm each other, not a trick to plot against you."
A contract not to harm each other? Chang Yue was stunned when he heard this.
"Do you know how to do this?"
Yao Tu said: "This was created between the alien beasts to deepen the alliance. You know, in order to increase their strength, there are not many alien beasts that devour each other. With this contract, a lot of suspicion can be avoided."
Seeing Chang Yue looking at him intently, Yao Tu said with a dark face, "You don't believe me, do you?"
As it spoke, it picked up its wooden stick and struck it hard at Chang Yue, but before Chang Yue could react, it suddenly vomited blood and fell to the ground.
Changyue's eyes widened in surprise, this...is so immediate?
"This... I believe it now!" Yao Tu said weakly.
Changyue nodded quickly.
In order to prove his words, Yao Tu worked really hard. Wasn't this serious injury? Chang Yue really didn't understand why Yao Tu had to gain his trust.
"Then...can you drink that medicine? It's really good for you." Yao Rabbit said while panting.
"All right."
The medicine rabbit was so sincere, Chang Yue had no choice but to believe it. It shrank its body a little smaller, then swam to the edge of the stone pot and drank the medicine in one breath.
Oh my god, a strong smell went straight to Changyue's forehead. It was so unpleasant to drink!
However, after taking the potion, Changyue felt warm and comfortable all over.
It has the bloodline of the Taiyin Snake, and it cultivates the power of the Taiyin. Its body is usually cold, and it is rare to feel such a warm feeling.
"How is it?" Yao Rabbit asked. After all, it was the first time for him to brew this kind of potion, so he felt a little uneasy.
"Hmm, it's warm and quite comfortable." Changyue replied.
Yao Tu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "That's good, as long as it's effective, I will continue to cook it for you in the future, and you can just wait and enjoy it!"
After drinking the medicine, Chang Yue started asking questions again.
"Where did you learn that non-harming contract?"
Yao Tu said angrily: "Ask, I know how to ask all day long. You don't care where I learned it from. I've signed the contract. I won't harm you anyway."
"Look, look, you've exposed your true nature!" Changyue accused, "You wouldn't talk to me like this before you succeed."
